Jason if you go to the county water table you can see how deep you need to go for a shallow well. My property it was 12ft. So that might be a cheap way to get water out there.

I'm with Russell Watters get some self leveling concrete for the floor. A four inch grinder will get the steel cut even with the floor. For the area around the door create a french drain that moves the water away from the openings. That is putty on the glass. For the door you could get a peace of plexiglass cut to fit the opening. As for insulation you could use the 4 x 8 sheets of foam insulation. Looking forward to your journey. Also I would cut an opening on the inside of the shop and add about 4 x 10 ft to allow the dogs room and also a bathroom.

It is window putty that holds the glass in place. Easy to take out and reinstall as long as glass not broken. Used in wood or metal framing install in them olden days. Save money and fix up. 👍

The room will work great! My take on it, insulated panels on the walls, frame in the larger opening for a doorway, and weld the other shut. The floor can be cleaned, you have a creek on the property for water. Dig a collection hole on the side of the flow, and drop a pump in it to fill a tote/ cooler/tank. The cables in the floor, cut em out with a metal blade circular saw/ Sawzall. Decorate, heat, hammocks, whatever. It's temporary right? Love ya'll ❤

I would convert the whole shop into a forever home. Yes as the money see fit. With a garage inside as well It Diffently big enough for a family. Plus u have ur sawmill for the lumber u need. Again just my thought. Then eventually paint the outside. I do believe this project is gona build ur channel up also

You may consider re-grading the exterior around the room area. Make water flow an opposite direction.

Think about getting gutters on the roof of your building, so you can collect rain water. That will help, just having the water available. for cleaning and live stock, even if it's not potable.

FYI.. A straight shaft weedeater with a carbide tipped blade is the best tool for brush cutting. Cleared almost 4 acres with one blade in very rocky soil. It will cut a tree up to 6 inches in diameter at ground level and there is no bending over!!

That is window putty that is holding your glass in place. That is how windows were done back in the day. Your Dad can tell you that is how we did it.

That room could be perfect as temporary accommodation, and perfect as an office off the workshop!

That room is so cool!! The ceiling is tall enough where you can make a loft to sleep in! It’s already looking like home! 🪵 🏡 ✨

LOVE seeing a couple work TOGETHER to achieve their common dreams! It's so different than what we see in the media! Danielle working beside you just makes her 10x more beautiful and is a great reminder that a man and woman that work together is the basis of a beautiful family. I'm excited to see what you guys end up with. I know these videos are a lot of work and I'm thankful you make them to inspire the rest of us to pursue our own little slice of heaven with someone we love.

Jason This is so cool! I’ve always been excited for your journeys but this one I cannot wait for !

Super exciting! Please get her some snake boots stat...sorry,I was having mass anxiety watching her walking around 😅

Need to get one of the IBC storage tanks 250 gallon and take it out there for your water

Great team, great accomplishment!!!! The stuff around the windows is old time window putty.....yes you must dig it off. It can be a bear or break off in chunks. You have this. Your excitement is energizing. You really made a good choice. Forever home will give you more energy than you have ever had. You have one another's back.... That is key.

Pull the silo over on side and cut the bottom off that is damaged. Stand back up on rock, level and pour concrete floor. A lower ceiling would not hurt the future shelter.

You need to scrape the old window putty off...careful because the glass will be loose then. Then lift glass out, clean-up metal frame (maybe even paint) put glass back and putty back in place. Will clean, seal, and make windows look nice again

The stuff on the windows is called window glazing it is a type of putty look on youtube how to reglaze a window it is quite easy.

Old windows used to be designed to come apart and it’s easy to use those pains and Wood to re-create them, especially on the inside of the building in that room. I had one really bad window at an old House in California and we didn’t wanna replace all the windows to make them match or have one oddball and I just started deconstructing it and it really wasn’t all that hard and any glass shop can make a pane of glass to replace it. Home Depot had putty that you put back in, it was kind of like you would imagine doing it with plumbers putty and then it kind of hardens and holds the pain of glass in there, sometimes they have a little trim around them to hold it all in if there wood. But I think if you took your time you could get those panes of glass out of there and clean that up and put them back without having to buy new windows for that area. The door should be kind of the same thing. You’ve got another door on the inside it would be really easy just to build a box through the door and have an extra room in what year building, And you still got a roof because the addition would be inside the structure and protected from weather. Here there’s a ton of potential. There’s a product called Herky liner that would be perfect for going over that metal, it’s a Roll on tough rubber coating it’s made for truck beds, kind of like Lynex but it’s a roll-on and it would be perfect for that metal inside and out. You could put a tiny piece of tape over those holes and cover it with her liner and it will probably last Walmart 80 years, and for the bottom areas where the floor is starting to rust out could just cover all that area, clean it up and paint on the Herculaneum and it’s pretty much protected from water even if you pour concrete in there and just let it run up against the metal. Especially around the outside well you still have some structural integrity you can piece some tin in there and cover it with the Herculean are and you’re pretty much waterproof forever and little rocks and sticks and stuff hitting it hard even gonna come close to damaging it. There’s also a roofing coating or paint that’s made to go over old metal like that, it would be a great idea to do the roof with that but it would also work anywhere on the walls and give you some good rust protection and make a nice watertight seal anywhere that you just want to rivet in some new tin.

Perhaps you could still use the big canvas tent for an outdoor kitchen, tool storage, wood storage, etc. One or two large tarps put up over it would offer some shade as well as working around the holes you found in it.

Jason and Danielle, you did a great job today. Looks already nice and clean with the grass and the trees being cut. See you on the next video

I'm so excited for you Jason and Danielle!! Can't wait for this adventure!🥰🥰🥰

That's not a water tower. Thats a grain bin. And the building right beside it is where the combines or trucks can dump the grain or corn then use augers to put grain or corn up in the silos. Super excited for you guys. You should just transport the shed you just fixed up there to live in.

Might want to relocate generator out of the dust cloud, saves on cleaning filter. A piece of angle iron bolted to concrete and bottom of wall would fix loose wall, and silo too, dig a trench to divert water away from building. I'd explore property better, and see what else might be hiding in grass and weeds for building materials. If you come across some old drill pipe, you could build a loft in that room, a cheap welder might be a good investment, don't weld on galvanized steel, produces toxic gas. That whole building, and silo look like galvanized steel.

I am so frickin excited and happy for you guys! Can't wait to see this all unfold!

Man, I'm loving the vibe and chemistry with you two. I'm loving the challenge you've put before yourselves with this endeavor. I'm loving it all. You've brought me back to your channel. I look forward to seeing what this year brings for you two. Great job on the clean up

Years ago while we had our house built, we bought a used camper and lived on the property . Took 3 months to complete the new house and once moved in, we sold the camper !

Excited for you guys! Great way to start a brand new year! Can’t wait to follow your progress. Those walls sure cleaned up! The stuff around the windows is old putty! Don’t remove with your knife until you’re ready to caulk

I'm happy you found home base 1. It's amazing to see how much cleaning it up changed the outlook.. Plenty of room for you two and the dogs! It doesn't look like it will be hard to insulate and maybe put a loft in to give more room to sleep. it's a nice, cozy tiny home base!

Jason thats glazing around your window panes. It's what keeps the glass from falling out. Try to dig out what will come out but if you get some that's hard,leave it so you won't chip your glass. Watch you tube videos on how to glaze windows. It's so easy this old woman did it ! I wish yall the very best of luck. Your walls are so high,maybe a bed loft would work?

What a huge blessing to have a dried in structure with walls, floor, and roof - such an awesome headstart! An oversized doorway with custom homemade door would be a bonus, especially if at any time you were to want to use it for a well house and/or solar components type room.

That wonderful stuff is window putty around the window to hold the glass in. I would replace that . You are already ahead of the game by having a usable room . I would do a loft bed to have room to fit a kitchen , sitting area , rooms for the dogs, and bathroom . I would go back to tiny house and mill up some wood . I want to say that the shop and house was used for milk cows with the silo . Since all the drains in the floors . Cog hill farms has a barn that was used for pigs with the same type drains. Regardless of which way you go , it's a life long project , Enjoy it .

Window glazing putty. L-angle to re-attach your wall studs, bolt through the studs, anchor to the floor. Sleeper floor. Rain gutters, looking at the splash marks on the exterior of the building, would help redirect rain away from the building. You could buy an length of PVC pipe and cut it in half along it's length and you'd have two rain gutters. Great start! Thanks for an excellent video! May the best of last year be the worst of this year for you both, your families, friends and loved ones!

That's glazing compound that holds the glass panes in place if you take that out the window panes will fall out. You need to get the dirt lowered out side that's why the water is getting in there it needs to slope away from the barn on all sides to stop the water from getting in and prevent any more rusting of the bottom steel.

Jason and Danielle, @ 15:03 timestamp, I believe that what you removed from the windows is called glazing, it holds the glass pane to the frame of the window!

If by chance that building was a pump house for water, might there already be a well there? The inside view from the other video reminded me of the scene from Twister where everyone was down in those floor pockets in the car repair shop. What a cool building - can't wait to see what's next.

So excited for all of you! Can't wait to see what you do with the place.

Yes that is the best thing to do...you can use the pallets to make the floor and fill in that opening...fill holes...out in wood stove for heat...you can make it work for now...then shop later...you could dig down around the sides of the barn and put a tile in to keep the water out

THANK YOU for this journey - My wife and so look forward to following along with y’all. Seeing the two of you putting you heart ❤️ and sweat equity into your dreams, starting from scratch, seeing the potential, and doing it yourselves from old, dilapidated bldgs, brings back so many special memories of my wife and I on our place.

The room is a good size and if you feel you need more room, you can cut through the back window to make it a doorway and frame up a room for a kitchen/bathroom area. Stay in the front room for living/sleeping so you can stay warm and keep an eye on the woodstove. I agree with the others, self leveling concrete may help you with the water issues. And maybe some bondo! lol Looking forward to seeing what you do. I still think you should move the shed house onto this property.

That concrete floor base is definitely a bonus find if you are able to patch things up and make it a lot more watertight inside. You already have a solid home base in that area. I'm so excited to see just what Jason comes up with from his creative mind.

The best and cheapest start for you is buy a cheap travel trailer. Quick set up, and has everything you need to live in while you work on spending your money on the most important things to get started. “Food for thought.”

It’s called window glazing. It’s made specifically for glazing in pain glass Windows. Available at Paint or big box stores.

Go to a drive through car wash, can usually buy a 55gal soap barrel for $10, put a facet on bottom side. Bring water with you

That hard stuff around the window is the glass glazing. It holds the window pane in place. I'm so excited to see this new tiny home build. 🙂

Hi! Great 10X10 starter Shed… definitely worth doing…Maybe sleeping loft, subfloor, and then add a door into the big shop allowing multiple ‘covered/insulated’ rooms and living room expansion as needed! Could even park a trailer/RV to use it’s kitchen, bedroom, and plumbing in the huge sheltered shed part… to save lots of money… and You have it made in the shade “literally”… indoor saw mill, log splitting, lumber storage and shop/storage area… Concert Hall and exhibition Room for Meet-Up!

OMG I'm just catching up on the last video & I'm so excited for you guys! I WAS GOING TO SAY I WOULD DEFINITELY CONVERT THAT SHOP INTO A "SHOUSE"! GREAT bones for sure & you could get a couple of new rain catchment containers & be completely off grid easily! SO EXCITED as we are & have been searching for our forever land to do the same thing. We just finished building my in-laws their barn house/hunting cabin & we're ready to start ours! We have a sawmill & I'm blessed that my husband is a plumber & electrician & we've owned our own plumbing/electrical business for over 10yrs now! So seeing you guys gets me so excited! I LOVE seeing people live this life & making their dreams come true. This country I definitely changing fast & we should all be headed in the direction of obtaining this lifestyle. We grew up in the country hunting, growing & canning our own food & processing our own meat & we want to get back to our roots! CONGRATULATIONS GUYS! IT'S GOING TO BE AMAZING! I LOVE the old rustic feel of that shop....add some old, big wood beams & make you a loft, throw a wood stove in there & aaaahhhh HEAVEN!

This lil ole grandma has a 14" Poulan electric that have used for years and years - love it. Go girl!

You could build a storage staircase or ladder leading to a loft/platform to make use of the vertical height for more living space, storage, etc.

only use the "old office" as your bedroom then you have enough space. the rest you can do in the large workshop space . just close all the holes. put the simplest and cheapest double bed in it. another closet or rack for your clothes and your bedroom is ready . I'm really looking forward to the future videos. i LOVE to see you together ❤ and also having so much fun together . from the Netherlands thanks for the video 👍

Congratulations!! It is sooo good to have a dream come through. You already know some hard work is involved, so the rest is easy. Don't let anything discourage you... you will look back on this day and laugh at some things. Congratulations.!!

It's called window glaze...its used to hold the glass inside the frames. Lasts a long time.

I'm so excited for you Jason and Danielle!! Can't wait for this adventure

That stuff on the windows that you were peeling off, not the dirt, was like butyl tape or glazing(caulk) from the original glass install.

it looks great and the old shop was a great idea for the small guest space temporary tiny house

What a lovely room! 2x6 walls all around, 2x8 floor joists 7foot x 10' wide ceiling for a loft bed and storage. Treated doubled 2x6 floor boards screwed into the concrete, self leveling concrete up over the bottom 2x6, frame in a steel door to keep the gun toting jerks out and to store all your goodies. Painted plywood walls with storage shelves. 'Kitchen' area for drinking water, ice chest, microwave. Screw the metal into the top 2x6 floor board. Dig a trench, french drain and fill with gravel and back fill up the newly protected metal wall. Won't be a tent, but more protection from critters and will be water tight. I bored 2 1/2" inch pipe down from a hand built tripod and fence post digger until I got water. All the makings of a tiny paradise home away from home! Looking forward to seeing/hearing how you go about developing your 60 acre paradise....

I just love it when people reclaim spaces that somebody, at some time, has put a lot of hard work into. It is much better than tearing down!!! We need to do more Recycling and reusing! You guys are doing a great job!!

Before you start cutting out all those thorny vines, make sure they aren't Dewberries or something similar! We have them all over our property in Southern Missouri, and they are an awesome, and native, thing to have on your property. They taste amazing, and attract wildlife like nothing else when they are fruiting!

I'm so excited for ya'll. What a trip ya'll have ahead. It's going to be a blast for ya'll both. Ya'll be careful out there!!! Can't wait to see your new adventure.

Hey guys rhoda here from UK,its looking good with you guys...you can pull anything off as you all are so talented & can build anything xx

I have read over the comments from the last hour and so many people think that you need to try to get your shed to house that you just finished up there as your temporary place. Will save you time and money trying to get something else fixed up for your temporary and that can be used to start your permanent place. Alot to think about. Good luck. Cant wait to see your progress.

I can't wait to see it in a few weeks. Stay strong your both doing a fantastic job!!

We love your forever place! You guys are smiling even when your working. So happy for you! Blessings

You kids are so blessed. Love watching you both . Be blessed in all you do.❤️🙏🏻

jason, i can tell you are excited, i cant wait to watch the building of this new project!!

I think you kids gotta plan! Looks better already. A Bobcat or tractor would come in handy getting the dirt away from the building. Build a 10' metal roof porch on the front this spring too. Gotta have a place to chill outside. Looking forward to the progress.

Windows, glazing compound oil based, buy at building supply store.

I WOULD GET A USED TRAVEL TRAILER AND BACK IT INTO THE BARN! USE THE ROUND BLDG FOR ALL THE ANIMALS.

Jason you need take Danielle to tractor supply for boots and work pants. I’m happy for y’all best of luck!!!

You could build your bed on stilts in the air or just build a whole bedroom in a 'loft' and keep the bottom 10x10 area for the kitchen and bath with a small sitting area. Heat rises so you should stay warm up top with the wood stove. Still think the sylo would make a great round house with a sprial staircase to the upper floors....

That stuff on the windows is putty that seals around the edges, that’s what holds the glass in

You all remind me of when I was little there was an old building on the property. Me and my siblings claimed it and cleaned up and made the best play house ever! We basically lived in that old building during our childhood years.

I am so excited to see where you take that property too! You folks can work miracles and just so you know appreciate the hard work it's going to take!

And the fun and hard work begin...... I'm so excited . I want the video to just go on and on! This is going to be awesome!

Great idea that is old chalking on the windows it is ti hold in window panes in and seal them. Congratulations

Putty caulk on the windows. You could try spraying some kind of cleaner on stuff and let sit before blasting it.

Never tell what you are leaving there on air. Now they know! Get a good riding yarn mower to start with. Use the small room as you sleeping area, and add a kitchen/living area out in the rest of the shed! Use the pillars as a base for a island kitchen counter.

I think that you guys cleaned up good with what you guys had to work with great day for you guys

Hello Jason & Danielle, 🤗💕👍. I love watching Jason build things, he has some unique ideas and choices. I'm so excited to see what you two do with this property. I noticed Jason wears work gloves, but Danielle does not. So, just a suggestion, Danielle needs a good pair of work gloves so she doesn't get blisters, thorns or cuts on her hands. I'm liking the idea of a temporary place inside the building. I'm sure it will be awesome. Just curious, how far is this new property from the tiny house property?

I hope you pick the water tower. That will look amazing, a new floor. Some metal patchwork! Or just build a floor platform and pitch a tent in there

I call that bush hogging with a 22 inch Walmart special!! I’ve done it many times! 👍👍👍 looking good!

For as much as you have cleaned it looks great. I can't wait to see more. God Bless you and Danielle

So many options for that space. Maybe even second level to sleep in. Use the 1st. level for a kitchen and living room.But like so many others suggested. Do a french drain system. To control water around that area first. Good luck God bless have fun with build.If you have a basement area or lowered area in that building.Put a sump pump in it and make a temp small storm shelter area too.Good luck.

Thank you for being you and sharing your dreams and lifestyle with us.

we learn a lot from you guys but specially from the comment section, lot of guys knows how to work on this type of projects i love it we learn from both sides, keep it up to all of you and happy new year and lot of blessing

That room will work out great, kitchen living room and a loft for the bedroom. And the work you both did outside looks wonderful. Great job!!!

❤️ Congratulations! Can't wait to see what y'all do with it all 😊

those other chunks on the windows looks like window putty. that's what holds in the glass and is easy to work with. thats a nice size chunk of land, you can do so much with it.

Instead of replacing the broken window pains with glass replace it with plexiglass or laxan they can be cut using a cordless saw or corded saw and it will take a hard blow to break

I’m so happy for you guys. God Bless You All. 💜🤍🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻🤍💜

Consider the water tower again. Put in wood sub floor on blocks, place 2x4's around the circumference of the tower inside and out, hire spray foam company to spray inside and out. This will make the structure extremely sturdy, and you won't have to worry about the bullet holes or rusted areas. You may even use some of those holes for electrical and water lines. Seems like a good and quick fix.

The dirt against the wall probably added to the rusting too. Glad you found a cheap quick solution to shelter. Can feel the excitement.

Wow! You've already made a big difference! Can't wait to see what you come up with for a temp residence.!

That room was my 1st thought when you said no go for canvas tent, personal opinion, I'd do pressure treated frame for sub floor and frame it in,can attach outer wall shell to framing (make super Ridgid),r30 insulate everything,leave windows until future reference,pop your stove in and go from there,love it guys.. it's cleaning up real easy. Get. R. Done son...

So excited to be here at the beginning of this project!

Stuff on windows is old window glazing that holds in the glass to the pane. It can be replaced.

Lovely idea guys I know it’ll work Jason you always do great with the figuring and Danielle is good at helping you keep you grounded so you got this I’m so proud of you

Given the area yall are in I would bet that is an old oil field pump house. That's why the concrete pillars are in the main area and the wires in the floor of the room would be for the control panels. It is normal to have a large tank along with other small ones located near by! I can't wait to see what all y'all do with SHOOTDANG RANCH!

The stuff thats on the windows is putty, in the UK it was used all the time to put windows in. now we have composite wood effect windows.
