This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things ukposts.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.

I know it's a pain but I really wish they'd do a lot more of these 2hr+ vids - without doubt they're THE best thing to watch on UKposts right now !. I LOVE EM !

As much as I enjoy watching these videos, I can't help but think of how cool it would be as the homeowner to have a video like this showing the whole process of your house being built.

Crazy that you guys built this in under 3 hours, thats gotta be some kinda world record!

_The best thing about this build is how you guys enjoy what you're doing._

This book is an ideal resource for the aspiring home designer.

I’m closing in on my retirement and I’d like to move from Minnesota to a warmer climate, but the prices on homes are stupidly ridiculous and Mortgage prices has been skyrocketing on a roll(currently over 7%) do I just invest my spare cash into stock and wait for a housing crash or should I go ahead to buy a home anyways

Love seeing the integrity in your build. The world needs more builders like this super talented crew.

Having built roughly 400 homes, 58 yrs old now, in my working life, I got a real kick outta watching your crew work. Professionals with a lot of respect for each other. That's what gets the job done. Built in Alabama, Massachusetts, and Colorado.....

I can't believe I sat and watched this whole video, but you guys made it fun, interesting, and educational. So much talent and craftsmanship in one place. Love the attention to detail and that you guys think the project out so far ahead. Thanks.

I came for some woodworking tips but instead I received a ton of knowledge on every aspect of building a house. I didn't expect me to watch the whole thing and enjoy it so much. You guys really do it all and surely know your work. The best thing is that you're actually having a lot of fun at work and seem like a really well connected team of friends doing what you love. Thank you for this experience. It felt like being there with you.

Perkins Brothers. I started watching you in the beginning of the UKposts days. I’ve learned so much from you building and remodeling my house. I miss the lunch videos. Hot sauce! Bring them back as you wrap up the Modern Build.

Love this video. I'm a former builder from Georgia. At 1:09 you asked why the pencils are flat. 1) They won't roll off the surface you lay them on. 2) But they can be used for fine measuring or spacing. They are 1/4" thick and 1/2" wide. 3) The lead is thick to resist breaking, and you can scrub the lead down to a sharp but wide shape for precision marking.

These guys are fricken legends. Attention to detail and workmanship is second to none. No corner's cut!!! Gives me great hope for America in general.

A whole house on a mountain in 2 hours and 40 minutes? 🤯 These guys are some serious hardworking men.

In today's world, a guy with a busted foot showing up for work is incredible. It's a miracle if you can get anyone to show up for two months in a row, much less a walking wounded. Kudos to him and the rest of the crew. Really impressed by your crew and their commitment to the company/projects.

I amazed how you guy's get on so well. I'm a retried builder what I miss the most is the banter and the jokes. it's great fun when you woke with a great crew. it's a brilliant job you all have done. Good luck for the future. God bless you all. Paddy from Belfast Ireland. 🇮🇪

This is what made me fall in love with home construction, the goofy fun times you have with guys you build a brotherly relationship with doing the job you love. It’s hard ass work but man when a job is wrapped up it is possibly the most satisfying thing when you look at the finished product and can say man I did this… we did this! Absolutely amazing job y’all! Bravo 👏🤙

As a former contractor/builder I have to say I really enjoy the coraderie of the crew. I am now retired but I miss the days of cutting up and working on a project with a bunch of fellas you know and work well together with.

In Germany we would take a company for the holes, another for the foundation, one for the brick walls, one for the wooden constructions, one for the roof, one for the insidewalls, one for the painting ... and so on and on. YOU took only six awesome guys and made it!! GREAT SKILLS!

I love these older videos. They're so easy to watch and relaxing. The true essence of the crew is captured . Delightful!

This is far and away the best builders I’ve ever seen, they are almost perfect, 99.9% on measurements and very little readings. It looks like they think everything through God bless y’all.

Totally came across your video on accident and got sucked in quick. I’ve never seen/watched a home made from step 1 so this was so educational and entertaining. This was officially the longest video I’ve watched on UKposts. What a beautiful home. You and our team should be proud! Thank you for sharing. 😎

Hello from Buenos Aires, Argentina. My name is Gus Fisch, I'm a singer-songwriter and singer coach and I really enjoy your videos to the point of choosing them over a series or a movie, it's even become a vice. Whenever I have to take a break from my musical chores I take great pleasure in seeing the Perkins brothers and their band of good lads. I am not a builder or a carpenter but I run to see every time they upload a new video, Thanks and regards. Gus

You need to make more of these. It was long but enjoyable. I have been a carpenter and locksmith for almost 40 years. I have worked with guys like this before and it's wonderful to watch the great repour they have and the quality of the work. It is a must watch

You guys are great! I can't stop watching. I've been in construction for 28 yrs wish I had a crew like yours! Thanks guys keep doing this!

A genuine camaraderie between the builders is so cool!

It’s incredible that 1 crew of 6 guys can build an entire house

Being in construction for over 30 years myself. It's great to see a talented crew that takes pride in their craftsmanship!! The young generation still in school needs to watch your guys channel. Just to let them know how you can build something amazing with your skills and at the end its very rewarding. I'd buy your crew lunch if you're ever out in Colorado. Peace brothers 🙏

I’d quit my job right know just to be able to be a part of this. The accomplishment and reward would be worth it all.

My favorite from the crew isJason is always w a smile in her face and is a hard worker too

Watched this whole video sitting in my truck at job site and told my guys im researching and ordering materials, as a remodeling contractor in NC I love Bryson city area and envy the fun builds in the mountains. Good job guys, now I can get to work

I’m 52 years of age. Full time mom and work from home. Don’t know anything about construction. But, watching this gentleman work and build this beautiful home was the most relaxing I’ve been in a long time. I was at an awww..Thank you for sharing. Very educational and relaxing..👏🏼👏🏼🤗🤗

Every time I watch you, I wish you guys would come to Uganda and build my home. The attention to detail and problem solving is so appreciated.

I really love the way you guys build wherever it is and the tools you have are second to none, a first class job and finish ,who wouldn’t love to have a home like that .peace and love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 to you guys 👍❤️🥃

I'm an old retired contractor out of Atl, now living in Middle Tn. Just found y'all and I have smiled and grinned all the way through this video. You guys are so candid, and real its funny, the amount of custom work, "care" and professionalism just warms my heart. Nice to know there is a younger generation that really takes pride in what they do. Remember gents...You're artists. Thank you so much for your hard work and pride.

Man, I wish all builders would put in as much effort and dedication into what they are building as these guys do. These guys are fantastic.

It is so impressive that your team is talented and capable of doing it all not to mention the window cleaning in the end! Bravo! such a joy and entertaining to watch!

Im a former broken down old school stick framing GC of 20 years from Wa State Olympic Peninsula. Built some customs ground up right down to concrete, insulation, drywall and paint etc. You guys are awesome framers/builders. Everything is perfect, cuts, fit etc Nice job guys. Two things I miss, building with my old crew and my youth and those joking moments around the jobsite. I’ll be 60 in 8 days and 5 years I’ll be retiring from being a Boeing Aircraft Mechanic here in Ohio. Just wanted to let you guys know, you bring back great memories of my jobsite days and my youth and all you guys craftsmanship, awesome work. I came across your videos and totally enjoy watching your work. You guys are pretty funny 😆You guys brought up why the carpenter pencils are flat, personally outside of them fitting pretty good in your ear or nailbag chisel slots, I think they are best for doing those 1/4 scribes . The other is mixing your coffee 😁

This is an amazing video! I can’t believe I sat and watched the whole thing, but this was so well done, so well edited, it had me locked in the whole time. I’ll say this, if I ever build another home, I WANT your company doing it. I’ve never seen one crew do everything!! From digging dirt, foundation, concrete pouring, block, rebar, framing, roofing, decking, siding, drywall, primer, painting, fireplace, tile, flooring, cabinets…. and I’m missing tons more, every member of your crew did it. This HAS to make the whole house just that much better. Here, it’s a separate company with different crew at each step of the way. Having your crew doing it all means you’re taking ownership all the way through. Seeing everyone involved in staining the doors and baseboards was next level amazing as well. Seriously, whoever the homeowner is here…. you are SO fortunate to have had this company and crew. I’ve had homes built and others renovated that don’t come anywhere close to this quality, this level of care! Whatever you paid them…. it wasn’t enough! 😂 I’m in Canada, but hell I’d move to the Smokey mountains just to be able to hire you guys to build me a home. Incredible work on the house, knocked it right out of the park! And the video of it was equally high quality. Great work man….GREAT work! 🤠👍🏼☮️ 2:32:13 I must have missed part of the video somewhere… or maybe it’s a separate video? Can you point me where I’d find the video of you guys making the appliances?? That stove just appeared here, I want to see how you built it, especially the finish you put on it! 🤣

I have to say this is the best of the best when it comes to construction videos. I watched the whole wideo start to finish in one take. I love the way it was filmed and edited and the voice over, th little jokes and laughs were the best, the technical details were detailed enough that i understood the basics and maybe even more, but not too much that i got bored. Overall an extremely pleasant experience watching this.

Love the environment you guys create, great working vibes. Wish you the best.

It is a great pleasure to watch a crew like yours who seem like best friends work together and it has to be even more gratifying to work with people that after lots of projects you can almost read each others minds which make it so much easier to build a project and still keep the comraderies that have been established over years of together. All in all a great video and I see no short cuts in materials and construction practices. Great job done by all.

Truth. I watched your vid while cleaning up the “play” room of my 3 grandsons. I flew to another state to help our daughter out while she is sick. And your words rang in my heart. Once a momma all ways a momma. Why? Because we do it out of love for our family! They mean more to us than life itself. My sweet husband is away from me for 3.5 wks and I miss him everyday, but he knows my heart was here with our daughter! So while I am here, I clean, do laundry, help with homework each night and make beds. I love serving our children. Oh yeah, our oldest daughters family is taking granddaughter #3 to Paris for her graduation present, so in 2 wks after I get back home, I leave again for a wk of watching their 3 dogs! ITS WHAT WE DO!

I really like watching guys build houses the right way.Seeing all of you taking it seriously an if you find something wrong you guys fix it instead of the typical, let's just keep going and get it done with. I owned a hardwood floor company on Cape Cod Massachusetts for almost 30 years and did every single floor the right way the first time.Thanks for sharing your experiences. Keepm coming guys. Kevin

Y'all gotta give Ray a raise..., he's got the best one liners and he does all the work

You guys are the best. However you made a major mistake in the placement of the perforated drainage pipe on top of the footing. This pipe should always be placed alongside the footing and lower than the joint where the first course of block meets the footing. The pipe has to be lower than this joint in order for water to drain away from the wall. Years ago, Fine Home Building Magazine made the same error in an article about how to waterproof a basement. They issued a correction after I pointed out their error. Don’t feel bad, most builders make the same mistake.

Came across this video today and was drawn in as well as the many other viewers. I throughly enjoyed the entire 2 1/2 hours watching every step of the way...very cool to watch the process...I am curious just how long that job was though...thank you SO much for all the work you all did on shooting the build. REALLY REALLY enjoyed it....When I was 14 yrs old my Dad built a four bdr. 2 bath, 2 story addition to our existing tiny house which was basically a weekend cabin. My brother and I were his only crew. From foundation to shingles and ALL the interior as well as plumbing and electrical, paneling, paint and wallpaper...It was an amazing experience I will never forget and I miss that environment SO much... I have not been able to enjoy that kind of work much in my adult life and that stinks...I am now 62 and believing God for my chance to at least oversee some projects in the near future as we build a safe place for those who need it...blessings to you guys!

You guys really moved me on different levels. First, you really exhibited American pride and talent throughout your project. To me, and many, that’s the gleam of the project. Second, the cohesive factor in all of your interactions made it educational and comforting. I’m very happy that I discovered you, and wish you all the success that you deserve! Thanks for sharing!

That house is in the perfect place. You all do great work. Nice seeing you take so much pride in what you do.

With one hand and this guy is doing what he loves to do!!! This tells you if there’s a will there’s a way. Good for you bud!!! Keep it up

I've been an auto mechanic for 20+ years until I threw out my back but at times throughout the years when I was out of work, I would work with my dad building houses or doing additions, remodels etc. , and I loved the work that I did. Hard work for sure but I loved it. That being said, I really enjoyed watching you guys build this awesome house in its beautiful location. Nice work guys!

Im calling it now, my brother and I are going to be like you guys one day, so grateful to have the opportunity to even say that.

It's amazing how you guys can do everything by your own! Also your sense of humor makes this hard work a lot easier.. it's never a waste of time to watch this master piece to the end ❤❤

The way you guys get into the details is awesome. Like planing the lumber to make sure the decking is completely flat and other stuff most builders wouldn't care about. Impeccable work guys.

The coolest part about this video is how you guys work together. A good crew that can get work done and still have fun is a rare thing. Nice build.

We did a similar, 20 by 40 started completely off grid. 3 years later put in a septic system. 3 years later hooked up power. We were so used to living that way our power bills are only 21 bucks a month and 50 a month running the air conditioning during summer. We expanded our catchement to a full size 1000 gallon in ground cistern. Love everything we've done and wondered why we didn't get power sooner. Can't wait to build a garage for all the tools next. Good job guys on your build.

I literally thought my pump was going off watching this video. So cool to learn that Ray is diabetic. I considered construction a couple of times but ultimately went elsewhere because I was worried I would be a burden on the team, but its really cool to see that you guys run with it so easy! Maybe I should consider a career change after all.

It is essential to have a guy like Jason in your team! The days drag like hell if there’s no one to crack jokes and fool around

Thank you so much for editing this long video. Much better than anything on TV at the moment. The commentary and all the effort that goes into putting these videos together for our enjoyment is phenomenal. Thank you so much again best wishes from the UK.

i dont know why but watching construction videos like this its just so relaxing

Really enjoying these videos. Great to see the genuine care and attention being applied to the homes Matt.

I have always worked by myself building garages, decks, and other home type projects and property maintanence. One fall about 10 years ago I had to go look for employment. My sister hooked me up with a framing company. I knew how to build but again I always worked by myself. I joined a 3 man crew that had been working together building houses for years. I found out quickly that I didnt know the "proper" names and terminolgy for alot of stuff. being the new guy and odd man out felt very humbling and had me second guessing my every move. As soon as my other work for myself picked up I gave my notice to them. I was always in the way and slowing their process down. At least I felt I was. Those 3 guys would build 3-4 bed 2 story homes with attached 3 car garages, completely weather tight with windows, doors, roofing, tyvek and porches in 2 weeks give or take a day. Crazy.. So crews of guys who day in and day out build houses are able to do incredible shit, fast.

These guys are so good, they do the framing better than most finish carpenters do interior finish carpentery. I'm tempted to buy property in NC and hire this crew to build my dream house

Thank you for the craftsmanship, male camaraderie, and enjoyment in a world sorely lacking all 3.

Like the use of siding spacer hangers. Ten years ago I was siding a Habitat house with Hardy siding and made my own spacer hangers out of a piece of plywood to make the reveal 7 1/4 inch. The spacers saved a lot of time and made the siding uniform and easier for volunteers to use. I am glad to see someone made them for you to use.

The Perkins crew put entertainment in construction that is why their channel is so much fun to watch. I never miss any episode. Much love from Nigeria.

I actually love watching your video's. I grew up doing construction with my Dad. He died March of 2020. I watch you guys and it brings back memories of stuff we did. Of course we didn't have all them fancy tools. This was back the late 60s and most of the 70s till I went in the service. Thank you for the memories

Finally!!! After 35 years trying to explain nomenclature to literally hundreds of people, you guys know (and called) barge supports outriggers!!!! Thank you!!!!

Keep up the excellent work, and I can't wait to see more stunning homes being built!

Having framed custom homes for 30+ yrs. I've been on jobs where I've done what you've done here and being ( Ol school) I don't impress easily but you guys get a hats off from me! It's great when you have a crew that has a good sense of humor...takes the edge off of a sometimes stressful job and as you know...makes for a better job done in the end. Great job and video guys!

Ok, even as a female, I totally cannot believed I watched this whole video. Loved yalls humor, and you seem to have a really good crew! You did a very beautiful job. Too bad you are not in Oklahoma! Great job guys!

Simply the best group of hard working men from beginning to end that take so much pride in there work to make the home owners so proud to live in there dream house and make it there home .

I want more Arlo! I love all the tips and knowledge you all deliver… and often attribute to him! ❤

So enjoyable seeing talented good people coming together and building something beautiful, and having fun along the way.

Top tip When using a hole cutter on ply or mdf board, start the hole to mark the circle and then drill a small 1/4 hole just inside the circle. All the sawdust will go down the 1/4 hole. This stops burning and if a cup is put underneath, all the dust will fall into the cup. Ideal in counter tops etc.

Forgive all my previous negative posts, they were just about the framing which i know most about. They did a lot of unnecessary time-wasting there, but i love the whole video. I would be satisfied if i was the homeowner knowing they took this much pride in their great quality work. Respect

I used to build log Cabins in Kentucky in the 90s. This brought back great memories of the crew we had. Fun times.

I would love to see a collaboration with y’all and stud pack! Go see what they are working on! I’m sure they would love the help!! I love your channel!!!! ❤❤❤

I was mesmerized watching you all build this house. You guys seem to get along so well. It was so much I had to watch from start to finish ! Can't wait to see your next build.

I didn't check how long the video was at first but man it was wonderful... I wish you were in my country... God given talent. Good workmanship and friendship among you guys. your eye for details!! wow!!!

Highest level of craftsmanship, hats off

You guys are top quality. The extra attention is always worth it. You can see that alot of pride goes into work.

I love that you guys show that not everything goes as planned and sometimes you have to redo things. Truly makes it "Real". Great content!

I think it's y'all's camaraderie that makes ME LOVE WATCHING Y'ALL BUILD. I LOVE IT BROTHERS!

You guys reminded me of my partner and I back in the 80s and 90s. We did the best work and laughed all the way. It's a good thing we didn't have gopro and youtube. We'd never have finished anything. Thanks. We were really good too. Jim... and Pete.

Only 3 hours Perkins? Lol I’ll watch it but I know that’s not all you could get in there. You guys are awesome keep up the great work!

Nothing reflects humanity's POTENTIAL for being truly intelligent . . . more than watching people who have learned (as a team) how to transform experience, skills, know-how, creativity . . . AND sticks, gravity and friction . . . into a HOUSE. All my life, I worked with "white collar" dweebs; most of THEM by comparison make you guys look like total geniuses. BRAVO.

Jason's face when he realized he spill some glue on Ray is priceless. He always make me laugh and giggles. Every single one of you are very good together. and I love this so much about you. you guys make my hard time going a little earlier. and I really appreciate that.

Man I can't get enough of these 3 hour build videos

This is awesome. I think these guys make the videos fun, it's like watching an old tv show. I know a ton of work goes into making the videos too. Great job gentlemen.

It’s amazing to see how this was so coordinated, real professionals. Talented guys who know what they are doing.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That rebar railing was gorgeous. And just so ya know, the brackets made it! Top notch.

I’ve worked on small sites like this all my life in uk and the humour seems universal. Great laughs and hard work. You can’t beat it.

Love the blocks for drain anchors . Genius. Respect fellas.

The customer is the master. As a master, I would never build my home without a nice large basement, even larger than the outside house walls. Great job, guys !

I love when u put these long vids together Erik ... just noticed it was published almost a day later

New to channel. The view and location are spectacular. To the cement vendor. I saw your Wounded Warrior emblem on the truck. We are a first responder family. My husband is 100% service connected Vietnam Vet. Thank both the VA and American public rewnewed support of veterans. Due to advances in field medvac supplies and training and floating hospitals more veterans are surving multiple amputations and worse. Family caregivers of age struggle to provide care. Please keep these families in your prayers. Thank you.

Great job! My wife and I love the look of this cabin more than most others!

I have never watched a 3 hour video before today but I truly enjoyed it! Thanks for the entertainment guys!
