hey welcome back to vice grip Lodge for
another episode on the barn build here
lots of updates we got lower Windows
going in Upper Windows going in getting
all of the tin finished on the exterior
plus we're going to be fixing up the
concrete primering and actually painting
the floors as well so a guy's been out
on the road doing some videos for vice
grip garage and got surprised when I got
back we got windows so I'll show you
guys these windows here and they also
finished up all of the tin on the
exterior it's looking really sharp we're
kind of to the point now where we're
waiting on a few odds and ends I either
need to pull the trigger and get them or
they've been ordered and we're waiting
on them but let's start with the windows
we'll actually go outside I'll show you
the exterior first and then I'll show
you the
interior
so I went with this cheaper it is an
insulated door but these are basically
the
cheapest exterior door you can get we'll
probably end up painting this at some
point and I'll show you why we've got
some Vehicles moved over here already
this was the exact
idea of this awning here was to get some
stuff
undercover um we got a world's first
dual carbed LS DeLorean down there I'll
show you in a minute so this is the
color window we went with kind of took a
gamble on it they called it a bronze but
this is the brown tin and as you can
[Music]
see it's an absolute perfect match the
other shop has the same style grided
window so we decided to do grid over
here as
well here's what that looks like kind of
do a wide for you
here and they finish the tin down to
that
green treated OSB
there lots of stuff Bentley moved his
stuff over here here's the DeLorean I
built on road worthy
rescues so this is the world's first
dual carb LS DeLorean it's got a
six-speed out of a
Porsche had some plastic bags on
It Isn't that cool buddy Andy helped me
with this my buddy
Chad uh the guys of volunteer Muffler
helped but it's all custom Fab brackets
mounting
stuff a lot of
fun D carbs got the old quick fuels on
it this was maroon believe it or
not and then we got the six-speed
mounted up there
switchboards had to cut the seats
to get them to fit
correctly kind of a bugger to get
into I suppose I got to show you the
door there you go
DeLorean I don't know some sort of 80s
music is what I'm
saying
might put it on the main BCE SCP garage
Channel but not really sure got the old
M sitting out
here what a good little tractor should
we see if it
[Music]
starts we're kind of going on a
miscellaneous tour
here dead
battery
[Music]
I got to choke it
somehow
and well I don't think it's going to
want to
go not today it says that's okay I kind
of want to do a rebuild on this just go
through everything get it done I don't
know what do you guys think should we
strip this thing down paint it make it
run better do all that stuff bleep bloop
it so on the
inside we went with
white just I think that just looks for
the obvious reason that just looks
better and it's also cheaper to do color
just on the one side so I really doubt
we're ever going to uh insulate this or
do anything like that this is more just
keep things covered and then these are
the windows up
here I was really stressing out about
these but I think they turned out
amazing and look how much light there is
in here and it stays like this all day
well until nighttime you
know okay show you the other side of the
building
here so that's this side of the
building it looks great and then
obviously this is where that brick is
going to be going I've got this ordered
it's just instead of the full brick it's
significantly cheaper just to do like
the veneer or I think they call them
caps so they're only you know this thick
just little guys the color I wanted is 8
to 12 weeks out so now I'm going to pin
cuz we got those paid for they said they
were in stock but they're not so we
might have to
pick something else decided to go with
brick because that's just a southern
thing pretty much everything down here
is Brick post offices schools commercial
buildings 85% of the
houses and uh just kind of want it to
blend in and look right or stylish
Rish I don't know almost all of the
garages exterior buildings have some
form of brick down here in the South so
that's a what we're going to do this is
little grip
garages new to him two-stroke it's not a
new bike I mean it's been wrecked and
flipped and needs work way too big for
him right now I've actually been riding
it but he's going to do something with
that I got to move it for him we had
some stuff in here you can see the tire
marks the oil leaks we actually had it
pretty full already ready but uh we had
to take everything out because we got
guys on the way today to start fixing
the concrete we've got some
cracks uh right here's
one of course normally I could just find
these easily here's
one
there is there more back here I can't
remember I think all these back here
fine those are good oh here's one this
one's new actually oh no I do remember
this one this one goes all the way out
into the
exterior but crack
here and then comes into this
one which goes up to
here and then this is kind of the big
one right here this guy
all the
way up
to
here so speaking of concrete there were
a lot of you that reached out that are
concrete feathers and offered some
advice and stuff like that and I really
do appreciate that obviously I'm not a
GC or a concrete guy or anything like
that I can get away putting up a shed
okay no problem if I needed to yeah I
could probably figure out how to build a
house but it's nice to have all of you
helping and watching a guy's back you
know but biggest comment I saw was how
come you guys don't there's no rebar you
got to tear it all out and start over
well no one uses rebar down here ever
anywhere that's their rebar
rarely extremely rarely is a rebar
anywhere we do have rebar in all the
footings the back wall and then we've
got a really thick
pore and I talked to a bunch of
uh what are they called I don't know
they test they do coring and stuff like
that and they said yeah rarely is there
ever rebar and stuff down south they use
Fiber uh they use high PSI they cut it
within 24 hours and that's that so
weight outer options here on this
concrete what we're going to be doing is
they're going to be coming in and
cutting these cracks saing them they're
going to be filling them in floating
them smoothing them out this is all
going to get ground and sand or sanded
or ground grind it
up we got machines and then they're
going to primer it and then we're
actually going to seal it with a
epoxy I don't know ballistic paint
thing okay that's the plan it is not
going to last
forever but but it's going to fix what
we got here and slow things down and
it's going to look nicer and huge thank
you to Summertown medals um for taking
on this endeavor they're just wanting to
make things right they've been a really
really great company to work with um I
can call them all hours of the day which
I do because I never know what day it is
or what time it is or what time zone I'm
in and uh they're always great to work
with so I'll get you guys involved in
that today I got to move out a couple
few more things I'm going to Leaf blow
it sweep a little bit for the guys and
then they're going to start coming out
and we'll chat with them and uh hear a
little bit more about their process and
in the next couple days this is going to
be all painted and I decided Jessica's
walking up right now I don't even know
if she knows I chose Battleship Gray as
the floor
color does that sound
okay I was going to do like tan like the
other shop but to be honest I really
didn't like it I too much over there it
works great for like dropping bolts and
Hardware but man does it show dirt and
stuff like that and rarely are we going
to be sweeping over here so Battleship
Gray is going to be the color I'm going
to run over to the other
shop down the hill get some more work
done as soon as the floor guys come in
I'll bring it back up here and we'll get
to work flooring guys are here this is
The Diamond Cutter 12,000 or whatever it
is it's a what' you say 220 grit it's
220 it's got different diamond oh okay
it's a diamond blade I
guess that's pretty sweet
diamond oh nice oh
wow yeah that'll do some that'll do some
stuff and then they got this big old
vacuum
machine and that looks like it plugs
right into that bad boy try to minimize
some dust big old Generator so they're
going to start grinding the concrete and
then and I got some more information on
these cracks they they grind them out
make sure it's flat and smooth grind the
cut in and then they mix up a special
mortar said it's kind of like drywall
mix at first drywall mud and then once
it dries it's actually harder than the
concrete and it fills that Gap and they
smooth that out and then they're going
to try to primer you going to try to
primer today yet primer today yes sir
wow these guys are going to be hustling
and then they tint that that to match
the top coat color and then tomorrow
they'll come float the the color on
which would be a a gloss looks like he's
putting some new shoes on over here
these are the
Diamonds oh
yeah basically I'm assuming they're just
scuffing up this newer concrete to get
adhesion right yes sir yeah make it
B so here's what that looks like after
one
pass
he's playing it over
there this guy's cleaning up all
the
grooves that might be a paint scraper
hooked to a stick works
good
whoa check this stuff
out oh it's like a
gel that must be the
powder this is all
that I'm guessing this is the joint
stuff there's a lot of
it that looks different oh this must be
the primer maybe maybe that's the primer
and this is the joint I don't know I
don't know what's happening okay I'm
just trying to show you guys oh this is
a primer
obviously compter
resin huh let's go check
in making
progress got this whole side
[Music]
done oh wow they're even taping off
the floor and the
joints looking
[Music]
good guys got her all ground up cleaned
out and now they're working on the uh
cracks
here filling that stuff
in and fill in the back wall here
tomorrow they'll smooth all this stuff
out but
today they're getting it getting the
juice in there the stuff that does the
thing cleanest the floor has ever been
though I'll tell you
that constant
construction it's looking
good what do you got spikes taped to
your shoes yes sir nice
lot of people compare them to golf shoes
I've never put on golf
shoes it's probably cheaper than golf
shoes oh yeah this is looking great so
that's pretty much the color this is the
primer then they'll come out and put the
other stuff on tomorrow
but it's funny how just painting the
floor makes things look so much cleaner
and nicer ain't going to be clean for
long but does look nice
it's coming along
good they're right on time they said
they'd get done tonight think they're
aiming on getting out about 5:30 tonight
and then tomorrow they come back this is
uh what' you say 10hour drive time or
dry time on this drve time on this yeah
about 18 hours oh 18 hours
sorry and
then
yeah and I should be able to put the
equipment and everything back in a
couple days which is great doesn't have
to sit here here forever then we can get
uh stuff moved back indoors
also ran into a guy coming back from
town getting some parts for vice
garage and uh guy running a little dump
truck I says
hey do you think a guy could hire
another guy to bring some more rock over
here so he actually came out and looked
at this and we might have could have
struck a deal there's my shoe right
there
literally so I got to figure out what to
do with these trash piles we're going to
get some inch and a half out here first
spread that around it's been an absolute
mess we've been getting stuck in just
about everything out here and I was
going to wait cuz rock is not cheap but
it doesn't make sense to be getting
trucks stuck out here and spending all
the time messing around with that so
going to start preparing for that soon
too what a beautiful morning having some
coffee look at this this is just the
primer looks great you can see here
there's some Thin spots but this is just
a promote adhesion and stuff like that
and they've got it tinted to match the
the color it looks great it's funny how
just painting a floor makes a building
look so much nicer which really wasn't
our intent on this but Summertown
stepped up and wanted to help so that's
really awesome these guys should be
showing up pretty soon it's early Sun
just came up kind of a murky day but
they'll be able to get this coated and
then we could start
getting stuff back in
here guys are out here working away
doing some final
sanding filling some small
spots uh working some of the cracks that
were exist thing sand of the back
wall or spot
filling and I'll be putting final color
down here pretty
soon getting a little sand on it
knocking down some of the higher
spots and uh some of the cracks say
fixed didn't even notice this
crack these guys found
it they'll be putting uh paint on here
in a little
bit and then it'll be drying up tonight
tomorrow and I just got the phone call
garage doors are in
and uh they're coming 2 days from now so
this should be just dry in time and then
we'll get the front garage doors on them
will finally be dried
in got the final color going
down that
about
yeah
[Music]
what's the fairy dust
do oh okay dehydrated so here oh nice we
got some grip 5000 going in oh yeah
yeah it's like a playand or
something
cool well the garage doors are here this
morning it's going to be nice getting
these up we could finally get this thing
dried in and I'll show you the color
it's kind of a walnut dis
wood fake wood thing I don't know it
took a while to get them because we're
going for a different look on this and
they're insulated doors which is a big
mistake I made in the other building
we're eventually going to be switching
the doors on the other shop to these
same doors I just need to sell some
Vehicles get rid of some stuff and then
we'll be uh doing that am putting in uh
openers or Motors um we'll just pull the
Rope on them for now don't have power in
here I'm sure someday I'll get
frustrated enough and uh bring some
power over here but for now we just
wanted to get the building up and keep
expenses down you know what I
mean so here's a sneak peek at the color
kind of a waln
nuish
color I hope it looks good I think it
will and that's one of the reasons we
went with the
brown here and it should have brown
um you know gasket stuff as well
well doors are looking good got some
glass in them the glass in the middle
door will be a little bit higher and I
hear my rock truck
coming decided to go ahead and get some
rock down and uh this guy was quick
so we're going to put uh inch 3/4 down
first starting with the chains here you
can measure how far this gate comes open
for thickness gu's been doing it a long
time we'll see what the first run looks
like and then if we have to we'll come
over it again with the chains a little
tighter
[Music]
and that's about
perfect
jeez so awesome watching people that
know what they're doing I've been doing
it a long time and they've perfected
their craft that's great I don't have to
move a lot of rock
around well the rain has once again shut
us down she is very
muddy got some of this spread out he put
some piles here I just started kind of
moving it down we're going to have to
add a bunch more as you can see and I
got some standing water down here going
to have
to dig that out a little bit so it goes
through Culvert well we're getting a
pretty good base in
here we'll have to come back and put
some Crush over top of this at some
point but we're going to let this get
worked in got it working into the doors
little high here but we'll get her
smashed down
yet boys are getting ready to go
ride got to figure this out
still but got a pretty good pretty good
ch
done lot of manual raking I got to do up
by that wall
still but making
progress little light
here still waiting on brick we got to
set up some tools in here we got to
start moving stuff in but for
now that does it for the barn build
thanks guys for watching appreciate you
so much as things develop further I'll
be sure to tune you guys back in see you
