Happiness doesn't have a monetary value. If ya'll are happy with the grain bin house, it doesn't matter how much it costs. I think it's a boss idea! Looking forward to seeing it evolve. 😅 Love ya'll ❤️ P.S. Thanks for mentioning Jerod
Jared.. spells his name like that.
@@virginiacurrey2019 😬 🤭 damn auto correct.. I'm sure he got the picture
@@russellwatters5891 i would have just done a smaller insulated slab (you seal w/area rugs for your fin flr) with a metal garage (a rectangle) and spray foamed. this silo will be a nightmare to int finish out and install windows and ext doors. w/o spray foam this will condensate like crazy (like the mtl garage as well so needed in both). so with a 24 dia circle you have 450 sq ft per flr minus stair and any loft with lots of wasted space AND NO OVERHANG AND NO GUTTERS/DOWNSPOUTS. with a one level 24x30 mtl garage (with a nice cathedral clg/gable roof) you could have had a much more open plan (w/ 2 bed rms and a bath later) and shell with ext doors and windows installed and overhangs in 2 days. the slab 24x30 w/ small conc porches so 24x 32=768 sq ft w/plumbing in a week. no need for 32x32=1,024 sq ft you had to do with your 24 dia circle. but will make nice utubes over the next 6 months. with all your free labor. lol
@@justthink5854 I would've started with a houseboat myself, but they aren't me, or you. It'll be different, and challenging, but that's what youth and creativity are for. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
@@russellwatters5891 nah. it's their utube gimick. this will be a nightmare for the reasons i stated. " it doesn't matter how much it costs. I think it's a boss idea!" really???
Love it! The deck also gives you outside usage whether comfort, outdoor kitchen, or storage for whatever you needs, a deck truly is the way to go and you two hit it out of the ballpark! Love it!
I am already a South Texas Roots subscriber. What an exciting video on the, "Not a Grain Silo" production. Also congratulations on the new babies on the ranch. Your Arkansas fam, Etta.🥰
❤YO ESTOY CONTENTA LO QUE USTEDES HACEN SU TINY HOUSE CUANDO TERMINEN VA HA QUEDAR PRECIOSA USA
It was nice to see a price breakdown. I'll make sure and let the ads run all the way through for you. I can't wait to see what you do with the inside.
This is getting exciting. To me this was a great way to maneuver your plumbing and electrical work, with building a deck. Can’t wait to see the floor plan inside. This is just fun seeing your dreams come true. Life on the farm.🥰👊🏻
You were smart putting the bin on a deck up in the air like that because if and when it starts raining for days in out this winter you won't ever have to worry about it flooding your home. Very smart yall
Those exact same brackets on Amazon are 129.32 for 10 of them.
Came here to say exactly this. They got ripped off on those brackets. Cost on Amazon today is $12.99 each
This was a great idea to let other people know what to expect and be able to make the right decision for their needs or finances.👍
I still think y'all were drunk when you came up with this idea. 😂
The two foot square footings are great, I did not do any load calculations , however the supporting concrete should be below the frost line in your area. In other words your concrete columns are wrong side up. What will happen is the upper ground will freeze and pull the round portion up the amount of the frost heave. The preferred method is to build your box below the frost line and add a cardboard tube to extend it to your soil line or above. From what you have now after the first few winters check for level with the laser and adjust any low beams by shimming above the columns. You may find that the freezing may be stronger on the perimeter than the inside portion. From experience in Alaska where the frost level can be 8 feet down, the important thing is to have the square footage to support and let the structure "float" with the frost heave. Keep an eye on the foundation and adjust as necessary. Nice to see an ambitious couple.
Decks cost a lot of money period, so that wasn't a bad price. Especially for the size. And if that's what they recommend hey who are we to say different. I certainly don't know anything about it. And if that's what you want, go for it. It will certainly be unique.
You may have saved money by building the wooden deck over a concrete slab, but perhaps the cost difference you saved will be spent on building your interior walls as your working with a round structure instead of a square one.
The expense hasn’t ended yet.. put a subtotal on that list.. cause depending on what or how too. If u make the inside 2-3 stories, or just do the first floor, and wait until the other later as you go. The echo sound inside will need addressing too. And so building continues.. lots of good luck..
I love the tree shadow on the building
l was just wondering about insulation?...l saw the baby kids earlier they are adorable congrats.
w/o spray foam this will condensate like crazy
you will never regret the laser, I’m a contractor and have 6 different laser’s and that’s the only way to go brother, looks great, your Alaskan friend 🙏❤️, your miles ahead at that price, don’t fret it at all you’ll have room to move on the deck as well, you guys rocked it
I understand the concept of the deck to raise it off the ground and give room for plumbing, but what happens 15 years from now when the deck weakens and the wood begins to rot? It will fall through. I think that a solid concrete pad for the building to sit on with a deck built around it would last longer. Just my opinion.
Nice work guys...DECK IS WAY better than slab!!!
A Silo is made of concrete or blue steel. A grain 😊bin is made of galvanized steel
Outstanding work, deck you saved so much money. Excavation alone is bucks awesome work y'all . No question straight square and level looks great. 249.00 best money spent !!!! Still subscribed 👍
Get blue painters tape to mark where you want stuff just in case you change your mind. It’ll make it lots easier.
Great video! I’m shocked…..I thought it was j go ping to be a lot more. You guys did an amazing job and know exactly what’s what under the bin. I can’t wait to see more!
Thanks for the breakdown of the costs! Very nice!
I have a crawl space in our rental and a slab in our main home. The crawl space is so convenient. Now I’m having to cut into concrete to add things or fix issues.
Thanks for sharing that. I would have guessed the deck would be more given the lumber price circus we've had the last 3 years. Can't wait to see what you use for sealing up the deck floor and insulating the interior floor. Most of the construction I've seen has a basement or slab and the raised deck foundation only used for summer houses that are not used in winter. What might be cool is to have a semi-circle "birds nest" loft up in the peak above the second floor with a ski light. Ski lights have been leaking challenges, but these days there may be better sealants available.
Hi Jason and Danielle. I am back and have a lot of catchups to do. Love you both💕💕PS Congrats on 340K
Did I miss how much you spent on the deck floor??? Amazing project!
Love the bin. If Interested in ideas for the bin, season 4, episode 3 of Restoration Road on Discovery+ Magnolia network had some cool ideas for bins....ceilings, windows, etc.. Excited to see the progress. Congrats on thr baby goats
Hello my dears, I think this wooden deck with a treatment coating will last a long time and I think it is very beautiful with this construction. kiss
I can't wait to see it all happen! Happy Holidays!❤❤❤
It's a no brainer you both made the best decision to have a deck I belive the deck looks so much nicer Cain wait to see the inside going to look like I bet it's going to be amazing looking so happy for you both..
Hey guys what you heard about putting boards together to make your 6x6 beams is correct nailing 2x6 boards together is stronger than a 6x6 because the grain in each board is independent of the other 2 so where one might be weak the other 2 will strengthen it,whereas a solid beam shares the same grain so if there’s a weak spot it runs the same a crossed the whole board, I have been in construction 40+ years and in my experience you did the superior thing by doing it like you did!
Your deck is beautiful. The energy flow within a circular home is healthier than a square or rectangular build with so many blocking walls. Am excited to see what you will create in this space. TY for sharing your building journey. Happy Holidays and Best Wishes from San Antonio, TX.
If I lived there, anytime my wife asked for something, I would say "It's in the corner"
Interesting the price difference. Thanks for sharing. I am actually more curious and excited to see how you're going to have windows in a round house. Can't wait. Much love from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️ ♥️
Thank you for sharing. I love the uniqueness of your future home. I am excited to see what you have in store for yourselves. You will definitely be busy. The baby goats are so adorable!
You'll use that laser level more than you think now that you have it. Specially now you are building a house out of that not a grain silo
glad you are back to talking to jared x
The deck is AWESOME!❤
I think this is great.
Wow - the way you explained all the costs is mind boggling but amazing thoroughly enjoyed the video though .
I just have to say it's cool of you guys to answer these questions. I personally have never asked because I think that's a personally thing and no ones business. I enjoy watching you guys but it always amazes me the people who are broken records with all the questions. You'll show the process as you get there. I truly think some of these people have nothing going on in their own lives and get way to wrapped up in creator's lives. I totally get those who are curious because they want to do something like that but they aren't the one's hounding you for answers. I'm excited for the build and getting to see it when it's finished. You're doing awesome ❤
You convinced me , i love the deck and the bin , great breakdown !
I’m so happy for you guys, I think it is awesome you went with a grain bin, on to the inside ❤
I work at Lowe's , I hope you guys signed up for MVP rewards so u earn money back on all that lumber and future purchases!!
I love that you guys are stepping out of the norm - the norm is so boring and very expensive. You guys will have fun making it into a home. You guys are lucky because you have many followers on here with some excellent ideas!! ❤️
Very informative I look forward to seeing the work inside. Blessings from Mississippi
I like the whole thing. Without knowing it you guys won't have water sitting under the house and also wind dried under there. I would recommend staining under the deck in about 2 years from now. I built my deck almost 30 years ago and it still looks great. I just give it a lite stain every 4 years or so when it's very dry to get a good penetration in the wood. Don't over protect it cause it doesn't help.
Thank you. Definitely a well planned decision & no flyby night help. Seems to me a great cost, not including your unpaid labour, & would consider hurricane proof. Go forward boldly with your outfitting the house to home & the other farm buildings. Lambo needs to come home with a girlfriend asap. Maybe his home needs completion next so you can all grow together. Luv from Australia.
Thank you for sharing the cost, and explaining everything. Excited for you folks!
I saw a utuber build that floor for a 2,000 sq ft house on piers similar to yours...imagine how much that must have cost...plus he built front and back porches the length of the home ❤...
I'm happy to see you've tied down (secured the bin). I say if this is what you both want, go for it!
OK I think you did Great, OMG that is a Great Price, WOW
I can’t wait to see what y’all are going to do…….lets go kick up some dust!
Wow, this is a great build! You guys are the cuuuuutest couple btw! 😊. I am very happy for you. This definitely gives me something to think about if I were to ever sell my house and move. Best of luck to you!!
Thanks for the break down. Awesome job guys 😊
Thank you for sharing this information. We have a project coming up and your numbers are helping me make a little bit more of an informed decision. My lot is similar to your lot, too. Very interesting... The "cool" factor on the bin, is priceless! Take care! 😀
Thank you guys for putting this video out, i can't believe how cheap the silo was, no way in hell you could have a shell of a house for that price, great video brother
Great breakdown - gave great perspective on the build ! DANG you get alot of bang for your buck going with the grain bin - you would have had $20,000 plus if you went for a shed that size ! PLEASE don't forget your grill 🔥location when you show us the blue prints ! Crazy excited to see whats next ! You guys are killing it !
Great video. Very practical for all the inside work. And it looks great. Fun and great idea.
Already helped Jarod. I think you're going to have a great place well under 100K. I have no knowledge to back me up, but it just seems the biggest expense is done. Thanks for breaking it down for us. Very interesting. Looking forward to seeing more.
Loved 🥰 the video Jason and Danielle you are amazing at what you are doing I’m so excited for you guys love 💕 The breakdown of the video love 💗 from Ohio Irene and god bless Jason and Danielle you guys are amazing and doing amazing job love 💕 from Ohio Irene and god bless love 💗 you both I’m a sub to South Texas Roots
I watched Jared’s slab build I like your and hope you can get inside started soon
Thank you I enjoyed the price break down and how you saved money by just a bit of forethought on both your parts. Once you have drawn your ideas on paper for you two floors, I suggest you get an architect to draw good structural plans to follow for your interior, those plans than can be sold to other people who follow your Idea or have it posted on your videos so people can see it, of living in a grain silo.
Great idea!
@@RMMomma4Eva i would have just done a smaller insulated slab (you seal w/area rugs for your fin flr) with a metal garage (a rectangle) and spray foamed. this silo will be a nightmare to int finish out and install windows and ext doors. w/o spray foam this will condensate like crazy (like the mtl garage as well so needed in both). so with a 24 dia circle you have 450 sq ft per flr minus stair and any loft with lots of wasted space AND NO OVERHANG AND NO GUTTERS/DOWNSPOUTS. with a one level 24x30 mtl garage (with a nice cathedral clg/gable roof) you could have had a much more open plan (w/ 2 bed rms and a bath later) and shell with ext doors and windows installed and overhangs in 2 days. the slab 24x30 w/ small conc porches so 24x 32=768 sq ft w/plumbing in a week. no need for 32x32=1,024 sq ft you had to do with your 24 dia circle. but will make nice utubes over the next 6 months. with all your free labor. lol
@@justthink5854 They are going to spray foam the silo for insulation. And I think this was moreso a cool mode of doing something different for housing rather than just needing a house and being practical. They actually already own a traditional house, this is them doing something different and being innovative. They're not the first, there's lots of silos repurposed into houses around, you can find tours here on KZhead. So honestly it's not gonna be that hard for them to build this out and get it quite spiffy as well. It is going to be stunning in the end.
@@RMMomma4Eva of course it's a gimmick because that's what they do. and all the silly fan boys and girls say its the best thing they've ever witnessed. what points i've called out do you disagree with? i would have just done a smaller insulated slab (you seal w/area rugs for your fin flr) with a metal garage (a rectangle) and spray foamed. this silo will be a nightmare to int finish out and install windows and ext doors. w/o spray foam this will condensate like crazy (like the mtl garage as well so needed in both). so with a 24 dia circle you have 450 sq ft per flr minus stair and any loft with lots of wasted space AND NO OVERHANG AND NO GUTTERS/DOWNSPOUTS. with a one level 24x30 mtl garage (with a nice cathedral clg/gable roof) you could have had a much more open plan (w/ 2 bed rms and a bath later) and shell with ext doors and windows installed and overhangs in 2 days. the slab 24x30 w/ small conc porches so 24x 32=768 sq ft w/plumbing in a week. no need for 32x32=1,024 sq ft you had to do with your 24 dia circle. but will make nice utubes over the next 6 months. with all your free labor. lol
@@justthink5854 I actually like the silo idea and would love to do one. There are some awesome build outs that I've seen. So I think they're doing this because they want to and they want to embrace the challenge. But mostly to live the dream of a silo home. If you know you know, what it's like to be "weird" to think like they do and want to go against the grain to do something that different. If and when they get tired of living in it in the future, after they get it all 100% done, they can always build a stick built house on this same property, turn this into an AirBnB and continue building their empire and making a killing.
Great video! Love the breakdown. Keep on pushing onward.
I personally think that's a great price . No siding, no roof, that's a saver big....hugs
Y'all are awesome ❤❤
❤ Love the idea. Unique. The aim of the game as you say keep a budget and work to your ideas. Great subscribers are aiding in your success. Cant wait to see the developments happening. Fan from hot oz
I so appreciate the cost breakdown video I do love them. We are building a deck soon this helps alot
Nice
Cant wait to see it finished ❤❤
What can you put around the edges of that deck to keep all the wild animals out you know that corrugated metal that would look cool and I think it’s pretty cheap. You could cut a bunch out 2 foot strips or something
I hope you do it as a two story inside!
You guys definitely made a great decision doing the deck. I’m just happy and kind of anxious to see the design layout. I hope you let your creativity really kick in and make this forever home a masterpiece. God Bless . MUCH LOVE. ❤️❤️
❤ brotherly love man love it... str I'm sub as well love both of you
Thank you for that. Really spelled it out.
Awesome video!..appreciate you guys sharing!!!!!
I always think a raised foundation is better than a slab. You don't get cracking if there's uneven settling, and that's not even getting into what you run into if you have to do plumbing repairs on a slab. My only concern with your deck is that even pressure-treated lumber has a limited life span UNLESS you are fanatical about waterproofing, and since your house sits ON the deck, you really don't want to have warping or rotting of any of the deck boards or support structure. I wonder if you might be able to epoxy coat it, like they do on garage floors; that would be the most durable coating I can think of. Looking forward to seeing the completed house!
Bravo guys, this is fantastic and cannot wait to see more of your plans to develop it! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Amen
Thanks for the information love you both
❤ i love the deck and silo. Plus Rufio can sleep underneath !!!
Just an idea. What if you have a fireplace come old fashioned coal stove right smack bang in the middle. Build the kitchen around that downstairs. Have a spiral staircase wrapped around the kitchen to get to the second floor. With the shape of the building and roof you can use the one fireplace to heat up your water and the entire home with an outlet right at the pitch of the roof to help control the temperature inside.
Thanks Biden!!! That's crazy. Our economy was sooooo good when he took office. Everything got so expensive so fast.
Great job looking good. Happy Holidays from Soutj Texas
This is a great video. I had no idea what this project would cost. It was money well spent for a future home! One thing you DIDN’T add into your COST! How much gas money did you spend going to get all the material! 😂
I love it!! That's freakin awesome 👌
Hey Guys, cool project!!! I build cool stuff for people who can afford cool stuff. Vey fun project!!! Oh to be young again, but I have concerns with your foundation. You did a good job of getting past the freeze line. You also made the right choice adding rebar. The thing that concerns me is the small profile of the concrete posts that reach the frost line and the concrete squares you added at the top. The key idea with a foundation is to remove all organic matter while reaching past the freeze line. if you set those square pads on topsoil, the reason it is called topsoil is because it has organic matter in it and will rott away eventually. This means the better your soil is the less those squares of concrete matter. I suggest you keep a close eye on settling and keep the project as light as possible. If you wish to address this more, simply dig out under square slabs strategically and pour more concrete under each. Your best bet is to assess strategic load points that the grain bin will put the most stress on and do them one at a time. Perhaps 4 corners closest and then load points in the middle of those. Good luck and never surrender!!!!!
I’m excited to see the GB house come to life❣️
This is late but I did the same thing by sandwiching boards together and an old guy told me that make sure you glue and screw them together, that glue these days works awesome, I think it was gorilla which worked well and I also used No more nails, talk about solid that stuff is awesome
Nope, I can't picture it,,I have so many questions, but I'm going to just wait & follow and see what ya'll end up with.. Thanks for this share, :)

Me again , A polished concrete slab that size in the UK would be 10K , so a good saving going the deck route. If the laser is a one off job ? then we tend to use a clear hose filled with water and datum each base shuttering ,rather than the timber top plate, and i suspect cutting your own brackets from a length of angle would have been stronger and better on costs? Will watch with great envy as you crack on with the fit out, Regards Paul and Marie .
Prayers for Jared WTG 🎄🙏
Really looking forward to you guys building your home. I built mine in 2008. Three tiny buildings, one for me, one for my son and the other the kitchen. All hooked together with surround decks. When I built them it cost me $25,000 for all three. Another $10,000 to finish out the insides. There is nothing more rewarding than building your own home and creating it your way. Everything is looking great and I am subscribed to your brother's channel and enjoy watching him with his home build. Oh, Happy Holidays you guys.
...I was primarily worried that you'd use this space as a shelter for animals instead of a 'Tiny-House' to actually live in. I was thinking - What a waste of resources. Now that I know your intentions: It's a bit weird...but possible and plausible.
Good job guys👍
Awesome!
Looks great!😊
