    My Lord, what a massive gate. You could keep the Romans out with that gate.

    Great design, craftsmanship and execution! Well done
  • @njkay0033
    Not sure how I landed here but glad I did. Excellent craftsmanship and extremely well put together video production.
  • The end result amazes me. The parallels, the watercolors, the joint gaps are accurate, which is a serious challenge with such a large size and weight. Moreover, all this in simple conditions and with tools! Congratulations, use it with pride and health.

    As a semi-retired carpenter your project is a work of art. Great design and quality work will reward you for many years to come. Keep up the good work on restoring the rest of your site.

    I admire not only your craftsmanship skills but also the patience to it in such fine detail. It turned out beautiful. Hats off!
  • @brucen4719
    Wow! That is an absolutely awesome gate! Great job!
  • I am stunned the post is able to bear the weight of that gate. the moment of force at the end of the gate must be at least 6000lbs. Looks great. Congratulations.
  • @harvmac69
    This is one of the most incredible builds I have seen on here! Such a nice job! Now I need one at my house!
  • @thesaltycabbage
    Great job guys 👌 Another option for posts is digging a minimum 1.2m /4ft deep hole and compacting aggregate around the post.. that way, moisture can escape the posts and stops them rotting out at the base. Also makes replacement easier in the future and is more environmentally friendly than concrete.

    Excellent job… that is truly one of the most beautiful Gates I’ve ever seen. I’ve been in construction for over 45 years. Great job!
  • @Cameron-ev7rc
    If the gate is anything to go by the house will be amazing. Makes my gate look like it’s for kindling 😮
  • @davedunn4285
    i made a metal gate almost identical to yours for a guy and used the same principles with the steel as you did with the wood . It was labor intensive work but the end result is good .
  • Now that’s what you call, not worrying about the mule , and just loading the wagon!!
  • @FredrikRambris
    Wow. Everything about this video is perfect. The gate, the craftsmanship, the narration. Very beautiful gate.
