wow. what a project, i just watched your entire build in one sitting. i was
very impressed! Im curious how long and at what cost this mansion garage
has been so far? cheers, and it’s awesome to see somebody build such a huge
structure basically solo!!!!! i’m a carpenter myself, and a lot of guys i
work with wouldn’t be able to figure this out!
Just went through your whole series. Fantastic, thorough work! Looking
forward to seeing the next videos finish up your electrical and interior.
Can you provide any comments on permitting, inspections, taxes, plan check
processes? Perhaps you have it easy in VT but here in California, I’m
sweating what I’ll have to go though on those fronts when I build my house.
Dude! Right on. Thanks for watching! So I started building July 15 and the
siding guys started on thanksgiving. In my spare time. :) Cost? well, the
foundation because it’s so complex was 14k about 7k more than i wanted to
spend. and the siding was 12k which was about 7k more than i wanted to
spend. so i’m at 40k total, so 16k for the rest? Hrm, seems high, the first
lumber delivery was 7k. Thanks!
Permitting, none, inspecations, none, plan check, well i had an architect
look over what I drew up. Taxes, yes the listers showed up a couple months
ago and re-assed me. They walked through. Worth noting that they saw it
with no wiring or insulation and taxed in based on “unimproved” space. They
also said because it was “so large” it “might” detract from the properties
value, because the house is smaller. :) I couldn’t have planned it better.
:) thanks for watching!
never mind me but you could have done without the sleeves and saved you
some time. Pex pipe is designed to be buried and or cemented in walls. I
you like you could make a little curve before and after it passes through a
wall then you prevent pulling or shafing. Pex is fairly new in the US but
in Europe already over 40 years. In france where houses are mostly build
with rocks, bricks or concrete, the plumbers there just cut a channel in
the stone walls, put the pex in and cement right over.
Don’t listen to the lister, you know that theres going to be an avid DIY’er
that will take one look at that garage and pay asking price for the
property.
Fill them sand and cap the ends. then you can bend it 90, let it cool and
you will have a perfect bend.
That’s a great idea. Have you done that before? what do you cap them with?
just tape em off?
I have not done it with that pipe. but Thats how I mandrel bend my steel
tubing. and i see no reason it will not work for you.

Dude ! fill it with sand , bend then wash the sand out, it won’t crush.
This is exactly why I post these videos. So people can comment and let me
know how to do it better. Thanks dude!
