As an ex carport technician, please consider a few things to ensure your safety: *Put in stoppers at the end of the tracks, there's a risk that it flies out the back if you open it overly enthusiastically. *Install a horizontal brace from one track to the other at the end of the tracks that keeps the them from drifting apart - which would possibly dump a door onto you or your current project. The angle iron will work to fasten it onto, just have it as low as possible while making sure the door clears it. *Brace the door midway up as well, as wide doors tend to sag while open and tweak the rollers. At best, it's not going to seal properly from weather, at its worst it will pull the rollers out of their bracket.

Very nice work! FYI, if you still haven't put siding on, you can increase the shear strength of the OSB by increasing the amount of nails on the perimeter of each panel up to 2" OC. You'll probably want to make sure each edge has a full 1.5" of bearing surface (a full stud width) when you put in that many nails, though, to prevent splitting. It's mostly limited by the nails ripping through the board, so more nails = more surface area that has to rip. Also short panels like this can benefit from seismic hold downs even just for wind, because it keeps the entire panel from rotating independently and pulling through the sill bolts. You can probably re-use the same bolts you already have in place for this.
@zachicusmaximus55515 ай бұрын

If you're not going to replace those other existing walls or put OSB sheathing on the inside to act as shearing, you should probably retrofit them with diagonal bracing on the inside, either with wood like you did on that small wall next to the garage door, or with angle iron. You can just cut a saw kerf diagonally through all the studs and slip it in and then drill holes through the angle to attach it to the studs.

as someone who has done drainage for years i suggest "drain tiles" for your gutters to run as much water away from your foundation if possible. and making a low point for water to run to only has to be a few cm lower it will work better than a drain cut into the driveway medium to heavy rain will flow over it and they need cleaned very often almost weekly if you have tree near by hopefully this helps so far looks like a true Carpender is at work cant wait to see how it looks fixed up

You'll probably want to make sure each edge has a full 1.5" of bearing surface (a full stud width) when you put in that many nails, though, to prevent splitting. It's mostly limited by the nails ripping through the board, so more nails = more surface area that has to rip.

How is it that most youtube videos seem to be way too long but yours are always over too soon? You are an amazing story teller and I look forward to every one of your videos. Keep up the good work and good luck on the rest of the shop build!
Man. I have a garage I wanted so badly when I bought the house, but havent been in it other than to grab the mower for years. Its this kind of stuff that inspires me to stop being a baby and get out there to turn it into what I want. Thanks, my man. EDIT: I also feel completely gaslit by the light switcharoo. Worth it.
You made me laugh out loud numerous times in this one! Great work Ronald, thank you for chronicling your build experience for us all :)
Dude 5 months? Chop Chop, lets hurry the heck up on the shop
Don't forget the zip tape for the zip board! So happy to see we FINALLY got another installment!! keep up the great work! Tied best channel on KZhead with M539 Restorations IMO!
It’s finally here
A double wide roller shutter door would be perfect for this, no hangers required and you gain headroom on the sides. Bonus is it remains fully enclosed so doesnt get covered in grinding dust while you're working in there with the door open.
Agreed, but very expensive
My thought was to get roller track that hugs the roof. My dad's garage has a side mounted opener and track for the door to hug the wall as it opens and leaves no overhanging obstacle.
@@LovelessAndroidunfortunately, that would require custom tracks and a spring calculated to match. That conversion is about as expensive as getting a new door, with more drawbacks.
I thought of this as well, but if he's doing everything on a budget may not be an option
2:19 gold
yo? it's high boi
What in the crossover episode?
Once again loving your humor, editing, showing the good stuff off the process, not super overexplaining how you solved relatively trivial crap for 10 minutes, love your videos M8
We had the same problem with our garage in Houston. My contractor pulled it straight by hooking a come-along to an oak tree in our backyard and pulling it straight. Very much like what you did. Then he replaced a few rafters and reinforced some other parts of the frame. Beware, the extra wide garage door will tempt your garage to turn into a parallelogram once again. Keep an eye on it.
Finger-san, you should definitely put more videos out. Quality, humour and editing are superb.
The problem is that quality, humor and editing makes projects take SO much longer.
I know … you can have your project done cheap, fast and well. Pick two.
@@AJC508 I'm a senior software developer... you have no idea how many times I've had to explain precisely that to both management and customers.
Ronald please I need a new fuckin video I'm having withdrawals from the finger!!!!!!
kid named finger
I really needed to see this. My Dad died a few years ago and left me his shop. It's huge, it's old, and it needs a ton of work. I've been very overwhelmed, but watching this makes me feel like it's time to get started. Great content as per usual 👍
Keep the water out from above and below the building and make sure the electrical installation doesn't self-ignite, and the rest probably isn't going to be time-sensitive. Good luck!
You can make this man, make a list and go one job at a time.
Good luck with the shop man ! You can do this, go slowly and one thing at a time; you’ll get there eventually :)
@@dratilhelvetedotlol Those are actually my two biggest fears. It's got old electrical, a leaky roof, and it's made of wood. Insurance companies won't touch it.
Thank you all for the encouragement, it means a lot!
Your content alone is amazingly entertaining, but your editing is just the cherry on top! Love what you do dude! Cracking job on the wall/door. Looks awesome!
As somebody who had been installing garage doors for a long time. I am glad you called somebody to install the spring.
I hate waiting so long between episodes but it's so worth it. Editing and perfect comedic timing are what make me continue to come back lol, can't wait to see what you do next!
as someone a novice when it comes to carpentry and someone who is about to start a career in construction, I really appreciate your humility to show not just the process and such but also your mistakes and how you fixed them. It takes courage to fuck shit up and keep going and that's something everyone can appreciate.
I swear he adds it in out of frustration :D
Ronald, that was one of the most entertaining and humorous videos I've seen in a while. Great production values and good writing. Congrats on the new door. (and not dying)
Man, please, more videos! even if it's not a complete job, but we love your content and the wait is too much!
If you're not going to replace those other existing walls or put OSB sheathing on the inside to act as shearing, you should probably retrofit them with diagonal bracing on the inside, either with wood like you did on that small wall next to the garage door, or with angle iron. You can just cut a saw kerf diagonally through all the studs and slip it in and then drill holes through the angle to attach it to the studs.
Here's to hoping he has much more in mind, aside from drainage and rotting wood. I was expecting an entire new building but, this is a start.
garage of theseus
This takes me back to working with my dad on our garage. Great video
Your content is awesome Ronny. Love the self deprecating humour and your showing your mistakes and learnings along the way. You deserve 10 times the subscription you have. Can't wait for the next video. 🙂
stuff like this gets me hyped to work on a trailer I have sitting out in my yard
These videos are absolutely fantastic. Your sense of humor and editing are top shelf, cheers buddy.
I loved your workshop renovation videos. It's been so long I forgot about ya (sorry), but you did such a good job on the thumbnail I was like...someone is tearing down a perfectly good workshop, gotta watch that.
Closed cell spray foam will add tons of rigidity to the structure. Also if you sheath the back wall inside with plywood it will help too. 😊
Ronnie, your videos make me so happy. Your attention to detail, humor, and editing style are simply superb. Thank you so much for making the wonderful content you do. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next one. Can't wait!
Hi Ronald, you can get roller track with a different curve angle to keep the garage door close to the roof and keep that hard won ceiling height you created.
Best content ever ! Funny, smart, educative, humble and authentic. Don't stop ! But please be careful with all these heavy stuff falling on your head...protect yourself !
Lumber and heavy beams of any material hold no punches
As always, the editing and storytelling is top notch on these videos. Another great watch!
From cars to essentially learning how to structurally support a building I think you’re the actual best example of the KZhead guy who just doesn’t understand skill limitations 🤷♂️ I’ll wait for the videos where you teach us how to fly commercial aircraft’s 👍
Comedy at it´s best! I love it. 🤣🤣 And a pretty good job done by a layman. Thumbs up, Ronald! 👍
I'm surprised you didn't get angled garage door tracks so that the door when open would be parallel/flush with the roof after all that work.
Would be great but it takes a whole different spring solution to balance it out.
@@jonasthemovie But would it be worth it ? Yes ;)
@@firefly2472 I would do it
Especially if you want a lift in there.
Back when that was built we all used diagonal boards on all sides set to pull on its self when racked by wind. Great video, Just need more of them more often lol.
Put some on the back wall. Easy enough since it's all open right now...
Dude, I LOVE your humor. Thanks for the laughs. Your editing keeps the audience engaged and you tell a great story while teaching.
Mr finger, please keep doing what youre doing, you have the total support of a youtube professional!
Absolutely love the little Easter eggs in crazy stuff with time travel and things you do in many of your videos! Ronnie being there to greet you at 2 minutes 18 seconds, priceless!
My torsion spring recently broke and after a little DIY research I came to the same conclusion as you. Not worth saving $200 to risk missing body parts or possibly death.
Yeah, I saw the damage mine left on the wall above the door when it went and decided I wanted nothing to do with that.
One of the best car channels on KZhead when it’s come to videography and editing. Adds a special touch making the videos more enjoyable.
genuinely out of every youtuber i watch the effort and effects you put into your video thats just your own comedy is my favorite , the little snippets of your self is hilarious , the other one you did in the dark when you were doing the lights was top tier lol
Come for the projects, stay for the jokes and superb editing.
Came here for the car videos, staying for the workshop building videos 😂
Could’ve done a roll up garage door…
How did i miss this episode. Great build Ronnie. Loved it. It brought me back to learning when i did my garage doors on my own.
as someone who has done drainage for years i suggest "drain tiles" for your gutters to run as much water away from your foundation if possible. and making a low point for water to run to only has to be a few cm lower it will work better than a drain cut into the driveway medium to heavy rain will flow over it and they need cleaned very often almost weekly if you have tree near by hopefully this helps so far looks like a true Carpender is at work cant wait to see how it looks fixed up
Dude, I first started watching you when you bought the fiero. The amount of video skill you've gained while still keeping it authentic to you is incredible! You're an inspiration!
Excellent, excellent! Just found your channel and can watch you work all day, love the content and happy to be part of the subscriber family !!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Literally every bit of it. Keep killing it man!
As always, top tier production. Your videos and content are always inspiring and entertaining.
I admire your willingness to do the work. This was a cool video and well done.
Funny sayings combined with great clips. I love it. Please don't stop your videos. ❤
I love the videos on this workshop build... As much as I would love to say a weekly video would be epic, as a KZhead creator myself, I know how much time must go into making these and I would rather see the content quality remain for frequency! Will be buying a T-Shirt for sure!
Watching you work makes me feel better about all the million mistakes I make when doing anything at all.
COME ON! PUT OUT A NEW VIDEO MAN!!!!!
If you are insulating use plywood sheathing for the back wall to prevent the garage to go out of square.
Your editing alone makes watching the videos worth while.
FYI, you can also buy concrete grinding discs for 4”angle grinders at pretty much any store that sells grinding discs (hardware, Tractor Supply, etc). Just for future knowledge.
This is the second video I've seen and your funny AF... Great job, can't wait to see the progress..
Easy to follow and down to earth presentation.
These videos are so entertaining my god. Always pulls me in when a new one pops up
You've given me so much confidence to attempt to modify one wall of my shop. It has one single-pane window that I want to replace with some double-paned Pella windows I got for free. Time to start planning for the summer!
We love everything you do Ronald!
im hooked to see the entire garage rebuild
I love when Ron drops a new video. Taking a lot of inspiration for my shed to workshop reno!
So glad another video is here I have watched all your videos so many time i love them all and your content is honestly so honest and helpful as well
I can watch this guy work on anything and be entertained. Keep up the good work.
How have I never seen your channel before. GREAT vid. And the Z. I had a 76 280 2+2 and it is still my favorite of all time.
The quality of this video is so top notch. Like leaps above your other stuff.
Always love a video form you !
And when the world needed him most, he uploaded.
Watching your video is like therapeutic. Presentation is unique and seamless. Great work.
Amazing comic timing. It's an absolute joy watching your videos.
It can look like a daunting task to replace a rotting foot rim, but it's actually not that hard to replace it section by section if you have three long jacks.
Please more videos
Dude I just found your channel last night and I’ve already watched three videos and made sure to like all of them. Keep making these dawg😎
lol I rebuilding some ones mess is all ways fun. My Dads old garage was built out of wooden 16 foot garage doors. Both sides were two garage doors and the back as well, we spent weeks trying to brace it up. Every Year we tried to replace new parts but finally a tornado destroyed it. Only good thing that came out of the tornado that year.
What a rollercoaster that was. Can't wait for the electrical, insulation, wood repair.... everything else basically lol
I'd definately check the slop on that car port and maybe even line some gutters around it, because unless your shop is downhill there's no reason THAT much water should be getting in there.
Original builders poured the slab below grade 🙃
Ronnie, you're an original. Great videos and fun to watch. Keep them coming. Houston resident as well!
Building work. For me, about as exciting as watching paint dry...............unless it's Mr Finger doing the building! Yet another brilliant video, with several laugh out loud moments. This is one of the best KZhead channels bar none!
So happy to have a new upload from you! Keep up the great content!
The jokes, the work, this is at least the channels I follow. The best content maker. Hope you keep making more and more like these :)
That contractor's quote for the concrete work is a "that's not worth my time" price to just avoid saying "no we won't do that"
Good to see you continuing along with your projects. I got really excited at the sight of the Honda Interceptor in the first part of the video as my father has his VF500 still, hopefully there'll be a video on that in the future once you have your shop up and running.
Where you at man!
It’s been 4 months without a POST
It's like watching myself work. You have no idea how much joy it brings me to watch someone else drop sheet goods on their effing toes.
