Pole Barn Build on a Budget | Framing the Walls Bookshelf Style (4)

In this video, Pole Barn Build on a Budget | Step 4: Framing the Walls (Bookshelf Style), we tackle one of the most important steps in the barn build—framing the walls using commercial bookshelf framing. This method is rarely seen in DIY builds or on YouTube, but it creates a stronger structure, tighter insulation cavities, and gets the barn ready for siding and finish walls with no extra steps.

I'll walk you through:
✅ Why I chose bookshelf framing over traditional methods
✅ How I handled corners, windows, doors, and porch details
✅ The time and cost breakdown for this step of the build

This is part of my full pole barn series where I’m building a custom barn from scratch, keeping it budget-friendly by doing most of the work myself. If you're planning your own garage, workshop, or pole barn—this is a must-watch series!
