Cutting Duct Board W/ centerline method using amcraft tools
Hey everybody in this video I go over how to cut duct board using (1 1/2")Amcraft V-Groove tools. I am using the centerline method, the paper with the instructions for how to use tools come in the box with the tool. In the video i kept saying center mark method, i apologize if anybody got confused. I'll provide the links to were you can find the Amcraft tools down below, buy them separately they are about $50 each. Also when cutting your duct make sure to find a smooth surface to work on. I was using an old piece of plywood that was not smooth, which caused me to struggle while pushing the tools.Thank you all for watching please like & subscribe

Question for you how would you cut for a 1ft x 10 ft 1ft all the way around
1st cut TRUE,all the rest minus half inch.
Quick question, how long are the staples you would recommend? Also, are the measurements the same for 1" duct board? Thanks! great video.

I used 1/2” staples by bostitch and they seem to work good for me, and no the measurements are not the same for 1” duct Board. When you buy the amcraft duct cutting tools it gives u instructions for 1”, 1-1/2”,and 2” duct. The 1” duct instructions are down below. Example: 10” x 6” duct 1st cut: 10” + 1-3/8”= 11-3/8” 2nd cut: 6” + 1-3/4”= 7-3/4” 3rd cut: 10” + 1-3/4”= 11-3/4” 4th cut: 6” + 2-1/8”= 8-1/8”

Thanks man, and no you will need to buy the 1” duct tools for that, also the measurements are different.
Really awesome instructional video. Thank you Alex. I am trying to find the best place to buy duct board so I can redo some a section. Any recommendations? I live in Tampa, Florida. I found the following at Grainger from JOHNS MANVILLE. Thoughts?

Srry for replying so late, but yes the johns manville duct board is perfect.
So say for example I want to make a box that’s 17x17 outer dimensions, how do I get my inner dimensions based off that for 1.5 duct board
@AZSolutions92

Just subtract 3” from both your outside dimensions, so (17x17 outside dimension) should be (14x14 inside dimension)

Yes for the 1” Duct Board the First cut is (ID + 1-3/8”) Second cut is (ID + 1-3/4”) Third cut (ID + 1-3/4”) Fourth cut (ID + 2-1/8”) Make sure you have 1” v-groove tools to perform the cuts.

How do I size the ductwork to a air handler? For example a air handler is 20x20 do I use those to do the cuts or do I have to subtract or add something ?
@AZSolutions92
2 жыл бұрын
20x20 is going to be ur outside dimension, so u need to use the inside dimensions to make ur cuts. If the duct board is 1.5” thick then u need to subtract 3” from each outside dimension to get a inside dimension of 17x17.

@AZSolutions92

Yes if the duct is 1.5” then get ur outside dimension and subtract 3” off each side Example: pre existing duct measures 17”x21”out side dimension, if its 1.5” duct then subtract 3” from each side u will get 14”x18” inside dimension this would be ur cutting dimensions that u plug into the cutting formula

So how do I get dimensions for plenum to sit flush with unit

Just measure outside dimension of unit and subtract 3” to get ur inside dimensions (Example: unit measurement 21x21 then subtract 3” from each dimension which will give you 18x18) hope that answers your question
