This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things kzfaq.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

What I appreciate about you and your channel is that you represent about 99% of what the DIYers and carpenters really have in terms of available tools to do a job. I just get tired of watching these woodworkers with $200,000 worth of high-end equipment in their workshop to manage every little task whereas you Make do with what you have, improvise, solve problems, and do a lot of work by hand. I find that much more inspiring than drooling over machinery that I will never own. And it's funny because I myself had just finished making the exact type of base with the 4 x 4's and the big notch outs pretty much doing the same steps you did.

I agree. I find it endlessly amusing how OTT some KZfaqrs are. They're the sames one who title a video "Homemade XYZ", and have 250 grands worth of kit. One of the old boys, at a boatyard I contract at, quite literally uses: an old generic brand NiCad drill, and a 20 year old (green) Bosch circ. saw, electric planer & jigsaw, for everything - and I mean everything. I've actually had to rescue the planer from floating off down the slip! If you haven't heard of it before, I thoroughly recommend "Tips from a shipwright". The quality of work Louis puts out, with relatively few tools, is phenomenal.

Just a woodworking tip here: You would typically want your wedged tenons to be parallel to the grain of the mortise so the expanding tenon pushes against end grain of the mortise. Wedges across the grain can split the mortise. Love seeing your progress on this house and your workspace.

Those window pelmets are actually really good at their job - which is to make the curtains function properly as thermal insulators. Without them you get convection currents that cause hot air at the ceiling level to get sucked down beside the glass where it then cools and falls out the bottom of the curtain. Eventually it ends up by your heater, where it goes back up to the ceilling level and the cycle begins again. Houses built in the 50s and 60s in New Zealand have lots of pelmets but they're a forgotten art form these days. If you haven't got a pelmet the problem can be solved by making the curtains go all the way to the floor - although that might not be practical for every window, especially the one above the bath!

Scott you are my new guilty pleasure on Saturdays! That mobile bench is great and will be worth it's weight in gold once you are ready to start. Take your time. The most difficult part of any project is planning what you want to do and then getting things set up. Your planning I think has been made more difficult with Covid finally hitting NZ and the headache of materials not being available. All the more reason to take your time and maybe start with small things but I will be here next week if nothing else for the cool and calm vibe your videos always have.

I get your thinking the pelmet is ugly but they do serve a purpose. Without one warm air will cycle down past cold glass continuously and gradually chill the room. The pelmet or a suitable replacement will break that cycle. Hotels (designing many rooms they pay to heat) do it well with a short beam running wall to wall with cornice on the rooms ideal and all curtain tracks behind very close to the roof line. Double glazing will make a huge improvement but consider the thermal cycle of air falling down past the glass. You often need to hide curtain tracks anyway. Worth making it a sealed conceal.

Hey Scott, I would highly recommend mechanical ventilation with heat recovery. Insulating is great but you need to ventilate. I live in Ireland which is not a dissimilar weather type to New Zealand (not as warm in the summer (I wish)) and installing MHRV changed our lives, no more vents in the walls blowing wind in and having to open windows to air all the time. You can do the installation yourself and you have a bungalow so you can run all your ducting in the attic! Looking forward to seeing the reno continue. All the best!!

MHRVs have their time and place. For them to work as intended you need a house that has good airtightness. This house is probably not airtight enough to gain an improvement. To cite Joe Lstiburek, Ph.D. "Attics are even hotter than outside during the summer and as cold as the outside in the winter. Of all of the places to put ductwork in I can’t think of a worse place." He has some solutions if one is persistent on installing ducting in an unconditioned attic. Mainly being extremely careful with the airtightness of any connection. It is hard to get the ceiling vents to seal against the plasterboard. It is a detail that requires a lot of careful planning to get right. Then the ducts need to be covered in thick insulation. Not every roof can support the unintended weight of the insulation needed. It is hard to get the ductwork airtight. In the summer you will lose energy. In the winter you will put hot humid air into the attic that has great potential to lead to mould or moisture problems. If Scott would be able to make the house airtight enough to qualify for an MHRV then It would make a lot more sense to use a wall-mounted MHRV system like LUNOS e². It is a really smart system. For Scott to get the house airtight he needs to spray foam the floorboards from the underside. Then use the internal plasterboard as the air control layer. It's hard to tape and mud everything to the degree needed but has been done on multiple occasions prior with great success. Then when the walls are insulated and airtight, the drying potential for any moisture that makes it past the weatherboard is lower. Meaning there is a greater risk for mould and structural issues. Summary of my thoughts, don't do anything without the involvement of a good building scientist. Most professionals in the building industry don't know enough of the science to be qualified for constructing energy-efficient buildings. Uninsulated, leaky houses don't have a whole lot of things that can go wrong.

@kschleic9053

Globalization means it was cheaper to ship pine to Asia and have it milled, than for it to be milled locally... And then the local mills shut down so it can't be milled locally even now that ships are delayed all over. Silver lining is that advances in automation might be making it cost effective to build new mills, especially without as much competition from overseas suppliers:)

Insulation is a double edged sword in old houses. Since this house has such a poor thermal and air tightness you have great drying potential if any water would make it past the siding. The temperature in the cross-section of wall will be lower by adding insulation. You could get problem with moisture not drying properly, if alterations are made. Water problems allways lead to structural problems. But this might be common and well tried practice in the Nelson area and not be source for any concern.

Hello Scott and Jess, you seem to be receiving quite a few comments from people that are not fully aware of either NZ buildings of the vintage that yours is, or the climatic conditions of Nelson specifically. I think you mentioned in another video that you were leaning towards a ducted heatpump system for the house. Good choice but there are specific things associated with that which you need to be aware of. I was, one upon a time, a HVAC engineer and we have a very similar climate to you in Hawkes Bay. If you want my input, let me know. I am enjoying travelling your journey with you as we did similar things at your age. 🙂

Pelmets retain the heat inside a room by blocking the cold entering from the windows. They also block light.

Hey Scott, love your work mate. Just a note don’t use a laser through an unopened window it will throw the beam on random angles. Apart from that I’ve watched every episode you’ve uploaded and learnt/enjoyed it even being an Aussie chippy, fesh and cheps hey Bro

Problem in Germany when you change the windows of old houses from single glass to double or triple is that the wall often becomes the coldest area. The result is that instead of a better insulation you get a mould problem. However, always great to watch a new Scott Brown video.

Exactly! Same everywhere and why you have to be careful not to simply double glaze timber frame windows when there is no wall insulation. It is also why aluminium windows are so good. They are the sacrificial cold surface so if there isn't ventilation they allow condensation to form and drain. Essentially a free dehumidifier.

Hi Scott, Mead and Martin ran me some Rimu weatherboards when we replaced some on our house. A bit pricey but worth it as they are able to get the profile spot on if you provide them with a sample. We used Insite for our double glazing, I'd recommend hitting them up for a price.

How’s it fella, I would be more than happy to help out with the double glazing! I’m a small nelson business and we specialise in retrofitting older wooden houses! It’s what we do and we do it well, top quality and attention to detail, or just pop around to the workshop for a skate.

I really enjoy your channel. I cringe a little when I see you pushing materials through your DeWalt job site table saw and then walking around to pull long materials through. A long time ago I stumbled across various portable removable/ collapsible out feed tables that attach to the saw. Once I saw the basic design and how it hooks to the saw frame, I made my own. It takes up very little space when taken apart but gives me a huge improvement to my safety abilities to rip materials on the job site. I wish I could attach a picture or link to a video for you but a quick search should yield enough of a result for you to get the idea. Keep up awesome the content!

i liked that when you were measuring the house you looked exactly like i do when i go to site measure a house for an addition for frames n trusses......:).Those laser measures are awesome,but you dont always know exactly what you are measuring.

If you do build up some furniture for the house, something I've seen done when using those wedges on the mortise & tenon joints is they'll use a contrasting wood color. Just to make it pop out a little bit.

Hi Scott, have you considered installing 40-50mm insulated plasterboard on the inside of your external walls? It would also have the effect of deepening your window sills which would make your walls feel more substantial.
