On Amazon: *CORDED METAL SHEARS *48" ANCHORS: amzn.to/30mBFx6

Helped my Dad build one of these things about 20 yrs ago for his . He save $500 bucks building it himself. The whole time we were assembling it, I was wishing I had paid the $500 for him. He is gone now, glad we did it.

For anyone who is considering building this carport, PLEASE brace the building frames with temporary pieces of 2' x 4" or other material BECAUSE until you install several metal sheets, the building does not have strength in the event a lateral load is placed on the frame. While it seems it wont collapse, especially when a person is on the roof installing the first metal sheet, the frames may collapse , especially in windy conditions. I know this vedeo shows construction without braces, notice the frames shaking when lifting the first roof sheet. Nice video of a typical metal carport build! Always work safe. An 8 foot fall will ruin your day, so play safe.

Chris = YOU ARE THE HARDEST WORKING PERSON ON KZfaq THAT IVE EVER SEEN MY FRIEND

This wasn't boring as you stated, it was very useful with pertinent information. I'm in South Fl and everything rusts on the ground here too. I had considered setting mine (when I get one) on railroad ties to keep it off the ground, TBD. Thanks for taking the time, well done.

those auger anchors go right in with an impact gun, I used my 20v 1/2" drive impact gun with a big socket that went over the eye end and drove them right in

Good information- some good 👍 value! I just took down a used 12’ x 31’ carport yesterday afternoon & Trying to figure out how on earth I can re- erected it on my property by myself. Getting the old metal sheets- 31’ long off the roof was the most difficult; I underestimated how much sway & movement the building had until I was up on top, This one had just a roof, at about 12’ tall- approx 14’ in the center. Fortunately a relative of the seller was on site; he is a roofer and sheet metal worker, so he was able to assist myself & my 15 year old daughter with some of the disassemble process, without him , I’d had to make another trip to finish up today. You provided some good tips on the foundation, I like the idea of using the blocks to keep the metal up off the earth, for drainage and other benefits. I believe I can complete my rebuild 90% by myself, Just getting the metal up on the roof by myself might be sketchy.🤔 My plan is to use this A Frame carport as beginning for a barn and add a lean to on both sides for horse stalls, as well as a tack & feed room.

Dude you got balls of steel pulling those sheets up top!

Man you are out there Bro. Love your Rip into it attitude. Attempt everything. And prevail. Go Dude . You Rock Man.

Last year I helped a friend build a similar carport (only his was twice a wide and slightly longer, for his RV and boat to fit side by side). We took about three days building it, and it was a fair amount of work, particularly getting the frame up and into place I wouldn't even consider trying to do it solo, so my hat is definitely off to you. Yours came out really well, and I like the additional steps you took (the back wall and the soil screws) to protect and secure it. I enjoyed the video.

I bought a used one of these things my son and I took it apart, brought it home and installed it. I only put 4 anchors one in each corner but I concreted them in. I live in a rocky area.

Thats some very meticulous work you always do it right the first time!!

I didn't find it boring, I thought it was quite interesting. Ref Carolina Carports, you're far more polite than I would have been.

I really enjoyed this. Totally applicable to my life and situation. Thanks for it!

Commendable work! I am having a crew come by today to install a 13x25x11H RV port. Full vertical roof, full vertical side and vertical gables. After watching your video I am happy to pay for the install since it’s 95 degrees here. 🥵

I didn't think this video was boring at all. Nice job.

It was awesome watching you do this you are fearless and tough as nails and you inspire me to get busy thank you

Chris, how did I miss this awesome video when you first made it available? Well at least I viewed it today. Great content!

Excellent video and information brother, thank you for taking the time to share this! A job well done - found all of it very useful!

Not boring at all, I really appreciated the video, I'm thinking of putting up a carport on my cement driveway, gives me some ideas!

First of all it looks great ! Secondly wouldn’t it have been stronger thus safer to apply some braces and siding before you climbed up on to the roof structure ? I’m not a builder but I got motion sickness watching you apply the roof metal.

Great job and like you said the mistakes you made on your 1st carport you didn't have on the 2nd one so you also learned.

Man, I thought I do some sketchy stuff building by myself! You’re a lunatic!😂

Not boring. I liked. 🙂

This may not be something you would want to do but here it goes anyway. When you going to do something like this that your not familiar with doing , consider asking us viewers to maybe do a tradeoff in labor. I'm not suggesting getting people that know nothing but ask if any actual contractors ( in this instance) who are licensed and insured might put this up for you in exchange for you working on something for them. I might have done it back before I retired with a couple of my guys. With the right equipment it would only take 4-5 hours to put it up. You would get double the video or more if you were interested in taping your trip there and back. Just an idea, didnt say it was a good one though. You really need and acre or MORE of land out in the country, hoping YT might make that happen for you in the future, your content is very interesting.

Very helpful video, I’m getting ready to purchase an RV carport myself. I love watching both of your channels.

You're way to hard on yourself ! Dude, you are freaking awesome and don't talk to much. Idk who's planted that seed into your brain but you do NOT talk to much and you do one hell of a job.

Great job man! You got the heart of a champion! I got some good ideas outta this one.

not boring

Awesome video. You did a great job.

Ohh budy, you REALLY NEED a what we call here in New Zealand 🇳🇿, a Lifestyle Block (semi-rural) to live on...Great job on the building mate.

Great video. Perfection pays off.

Thanks bro. Certainly gave me some things to think about before I embark on this perilous journey myself. LOL :)

I was wondering till nearly the end if the old dodge had a humming Cummins 😎

Wasnt boring. And im glad youbdidnt fall off the roof!!!

Front metal grate was a great use of scrap metal

When you are trying to use a string for level.. #1. Never let it get wet. Will sag more #2. With a lether glove on... Pull the string insainly tight ... Gravity dictates it will sag...

you deserve a beer

Am going to buy a carport and was thinking my son and I would do it? Now iv'e changed my mind and going to hire it done! Thanks for the video.

Thank you for the video. I've been helping a buddy put up carport he got. Definitely not a one man job. Your looks great!!

Thank you for this video. I just saw myself in your place...NOT gonna do it myself!!

Awesome job! That is super sturdy also!!!!!!!

"This is Slightly boring " LOL Au contrary! Forgive my French. Nothing you do is boring. However maybe put Jenn in the background just for a little beauty.

Great bideo

Well...I found that pretty damn intresting... Well done Chris 👏

Great job. No doubt you did a better install than a paid crew.

Shout out for elysburg. Knoebels and aoaa nearby. Great vid

You are quite the fabricator Sir. Nice work.

Good job as usual and I got a lot out of this video. Thanks,

All your videos are great IMO

Loved it

Thank You !! This helps so much !!!

This was great man thank you!

Good job!

Don't you mean the holes are dug 694 mm not 24 inches...lol. Great job mate.

Very nice and very clean.

Great job

Job well done 👍

Nice job. Well done!

wow for the price make a tube bender and make one

Nice work

Please tell me how with the squirrel? Good job on carport

I think you did better than the installer would have done.

Looks good 👍👍👍👍💯

Top 👍👏👏

Can you send the friend to York SC for Friday and what’s his favorite poison?

Chris what the heck is that circular saw at 13.04 min? Is that an aluminum bodied saw from the 1960'S? Hope it's double insulated or at least properly grounded...those old saws could be quite shocking! Great video bye the way.

Great video. Without knowing your financial situation If you added up all your costs for both buildings would it have made financial sense to have built one large building vs two smaller? Im considering consolidating my RV Barn with a new shop. Metal is high right now in Texas.

Watching that thing sway while you were standing on it....oh hell nah!

Thx so helpful

Aaaa no when that thing started shaking I'm off

Probably a $500 ladder 😮😮

should have called your channel NoNonsenseOverkill

Ya done good kid,,,,,good price,,,,hay,just for shits & giggles, what if you put a pol barn in your. Yard? $4,000 with 3 big garage doors?? Good vidi

👍

Do the instructions say to start panels on top? I put one together once, no instructions but we started on bottom

Ummmm Texas here. No our soil in Central Texas moves like the waves in the water.

What music channel do you listen to?

These are still p.o.s. , are just cheap tin. And now are 1.5x cost, plus no install or warranty. Just build your own with a lean to pitch roof out of wood. If you use carriage bolts,you can assemble and disassemble move it take it with you or easily resell unlike these metal ones.

what not what to do

What a pain in the ass

yer too hard on yerself...but then that's why you are successful

scummy company eh.. they were sour they had to give you a carport at the old price you already paid instead of selling one at the new inflated price.. still doubt they were taking a loss on it though.. were just hoping youd say no give me my money back so they could sell it to someone else for 4500$

great vid thanks...peace out

No need to be climbing on top you can put the screws using the ladder

two shipping containers with a canopy between them would be better suited to the sanford and son mess that yard is becoming
