Ryan, I mostly agree you. However, I think this should be a requirement not something that's "OFFERED" as an elective. I also think personal finance and basic investing should be taught. What should be left as elective are the foreign languages. Mind you I am not against learning foreign languages at all. Please excuse my ignorance if I am wrong, I shouldn't assume so let me clarify and say I am making reference to those who live in the United States as that is where I have been born and live. In regards to learning a foreign language, it should not be made mandatory. The idea of public school is great however the ways are less than desired for I believe it harms not helps. 😮

I have been missing the times where I could fix or build stuff by myself but I'm far from my tools and peers! Hopefully that *already renovated by flippers* house I recently bought will allow me to do work on my own instead of paying contractors for every tasks... Thank you again keep the videos coming

If you can't lift the wall in one piece then frame it in 8' sections then tack them together tightly with blocks on the top and bottom plate breaks. Then put the bottom plate on the wall line that should be snapped on the concrete where the inside of the wall goes that way you know if the wall is straight. Now that it's straight you can square it like it was one wall. Measure from outside corner of the bottom plate diagonally too the same point on the top plate at the other end. Now you can sheet it on the ground and it will be plumb when you stand it up. Pull the blocks after it's sheeted and stand each section. Then connect all of them with one top plate. That's the easy way. For 8' walls you want to get 92 5/8" studs so you won't have to cut them and the sheets will land on the center of the top and bottom plates so you can nail the edges without putting blocks in every stud bay for it. Don't do anything this guy does or you're going to have problems the whole way and you won't pass inspection

Just a heads up, whenever you have plywood sticking out/leftover that you need to cut out, a router is a very simple solution. No need to measure or draw anything out. Specially for those windows, just make a little hole for the router bit to go in and route it out from the outside. Super easy and opening cimes out perfect following the 2x4s.

I have the same door and had the same issue. Loosen the brackets that hold the door, use a pipe wrench to hold the shaft in place while you rotate the entire door to increase the tension. From a tight roll, my door needed about 1 and a half turns.

This just turned into a reality show

57:20 - When I was in high school my Dad had a garage door business and I went with him on a lot of jobs during the summer months and on weekends once in a while. You're right. You guys have no idea what you're doing. lol But to be fair, I think we only did one roll up door and it was like... 24 x 40, it was a beast. He turned down rollup door installations after that one. Tightening those springs is the scary/dangerous part.

Heads up , roller doors have weight in the in them to creat e tension (esp. when they are cheap and thin metal) try sticking a piece of scrap bar 3-6 pounds in one of the recesses, 2mm x 25mm, iron is good. Start with a bigger piece and you can trim down to weight till you find a happy medium. P.s. if the recess is shallow you may have to use some adhesive

If you're building too code you needed to balloon frame the tall wall instead of adding a pony wall on top because that creates a hinge point on a load bearing wall. You also need headers above the windows. You have 2 rafters bearing on a single 2×6 over each window. So half of the rafters don't have proper bearing and especially not when you have snow loads to worry about. Everything in this video is a good example of improper framing that's not too code.

I completely understand what you said about not wanting to do another garage door. I had help installing one back in 2001, never wanted to do that again! Cheers!

I don't think you're missing parts. Looks like there is a spring in the center that needs to be tensioned. Probably doesn't need much... My guess.... set the height of the door when it's open, spin the shaft to get tension the spring, tighten u-bolts. There should be some hardware that attaches to the door to prevent it from completely pulling out of the tracks. I've never installed one, but that is my guess.

You are not supposed to cut the plastic holding the roll until the door until it is installed. By unrolling the whole thing on the floor he lost all the tension.

You are so funny and real when you make a mistake you admit you screwed up on the height of the first two walls. Awesome! Like no one has ever done that! I know I have.

Me again. Pretty sure your roller door should have a rectangular container at the top which encloses the rolled up door and prevents it from creating a huge coil above your head. Basically you roll the door up into a tightly wound self-contained coil, inside a box. Jeff, you need to make a nice timber box for the coiled up door!😉

You can stand that entire wall on top of the bolts and just kick into place over the holes and it drops down. You don't notch the bottom plate for bolts because it's not necessary and makes the plate weak at every notch so it's not allowed by code and those washers aren't correct. You need bigger square hot dipped galvanized washers for treated wood.

The roller door needed to be rolled up tighter befor you lifted it onto the brackets ,then clamp the spindle down tight,then rotate the roller one and a half turns ,then feed it into the chanel,pull door down to base ,then bend tads at top to stop it coming out of chanel when you open it .best wishes from England

@@HomeRenoVisionDIY You are not missing hardware. But you definitely screwed yourself there by unrolling that. Ive installed a roll up door on my shed. Here what needs to happen. Before you cut the cable that's holding it together you need to mount the side tracks and the entire rolled up assembly in its space then take a bar and pre tension the springs inside or else it will just unravel itself and won't have any tension to roll back up. The hardware that comes with them (the ones from Lowes Canada) is crap. I bought some extra hardware before I installed it and ended up using the extra stuff instead of the provided ones. What I suggest you do is take the door back off. Lay it on the ground. Roll it as tight as you can. Put a ratchet strap around it to hold it, then mount it above the track. Now you can Tension it. Tighten everything down. Then you can untie it and it'll work.
