Even if it was t&g youd never have a join floating like that. Personaly id have use 18mm full sheets.

All these years I've been watching Bundy videos yet I still look forward to every video he posts. Top guy great content.

I appreciate that! Cheers dude

You've definitely got patience, using such small osb sheets. Would have been so much quicker getting 4x8 sheets of osb.

and probably half the price, those loft sheets are way more expensive and generally that size so you can get them through the loft hatch.

Or 22mm egger 8x2 t&g boards

Generally you'd want to put in the noggins/cross bracing first, because if the joists are twisted and you force them back, it might twist the joist away from the OSB sheets, but as you glued and screwed it, you're probably going to be fine. 😂❤

need to weld a metal grid to the roof purlins to stop entry through the polycarbonate clear roof sheets

My friend that's a good joiner with mechanical engineering skills would have hinged the staircase at the top and mounted an electrical winch on the ceiling to lift it up out of the way when not in use.

you are down to earth ,you explain how you going to do yhe work and you try to keep to a plan. as long as you have use boards 12mm or more and you not jumping up and down you done a great job.

Crap expands to fill the available space. If in doubt chuck it out.

Those OSB boards are ok as long as you do a staggered bond against each row, they do lock in reasonably well. For extra security a scrap of wood screwed across both would've been ample - or noggins as you say. Job well done I'd say, couple it with some hand rail for safety and all will be good! When I had a shop I used to love doing stuff like this too, but now using a kitted out garage for my business instead!

The only reason you should use those small boards is for an attic that doesn't has space to get a proper 8 by 2 sheet up. And butting the joints is actually more important when the ends are t and g. That way the boards either side help give that joint strength.

strip lights across the new storage area up stairs that you can turn off when not in use move the round lights to shine to the lower work space should look great ......

Good to see you enjoying your man cave mate, i recently built myn and slowly fitting/building it out lol its all good fun! I couldnt be without a man cave.. the Mrs can have the house.. haha.

Others may piss and moan about the size of the OSB you used or whether you staggered joints, but I say you did a fine job with what you had. The floor is well supported and should last a good long time. Always a pleasure to watch, Nick. Good on you.

You're looking very "chilled" Sir Nick! Good stuff. Cheers

I would genuinely love to come help you organise it all! I would have tonnes of fun! Love the videos!

Already so much better well done mate 👍

Love the vids mate.. as always great content 👌🏼 Did I catch you say you’re getting rid of the Stanley boxes??

Looking good and getting more organised 👍👌

Looking good Nick! That stapler looks interesting!

The right sheets to use are 8*2 and are thicker than them. Loft ones are only for light duty

I've never seen a product like the loft boards before here... Generally you just have to get sheets of plywood or OSB and figure it out, haha... Although we don't really use our attics for storage, that's what basements are for 😜

The fuck you on about

The best place for tongue and groove loft boards is Wickes. In my humble opinion.

That looks painful putting baby pieces of osb down, would have been quicker and cheaper using full sheets

You should have bought the 18mm caber board sheets which are 2400 x 600mm Also don’t screw the boards down until you’ve got the third row down

Tidy unit nick coming along nicely. Please don't throw away those stanley fatmax boxes. I can offer them a good home

Go get bigger sheets Nick!!!

Just got in from work and watched the rest of the video. Mezzanine and the stairs look really good, let’s see how quickly you can fill it up 😂😂

Looking good Nick. Greetings from Kentucky USA(

Chuffed thats you finally for the mezzanine sorted I know its been a long time coming....(insert Adam's mum joke 😂)

Looks gd. If were me I’d fill in the floor between the mezzanine and the stud wall give u a touch more floor space. Or u could put stair along the back of the stud wall save u losing to much floor space still shelve under the stairs

Too late now, but you should have staggered the boards to land on different joists each row. Also should have used egger d4 flooring glue as wood glue won’t do much on a floor after you’ve walked on it a bit, but it will probably be fine with all those screws in it.

Looks like the stapler has a safety sensor that prevents you clipping the cable. That’s why it wasn’t firing🤷🏻‍♂️

Just don't give up that unit that letting agent will have your pants down. It's contract for life with them.

Would have been better with D1 glue, you wouldn't need to do all that screwing, they will creek in the end, good fo though, can never fault anyone giving something a go.

ahaha you got the shite boards. I did exactly the same when i insulated and boarded my loft. ended up buying new bigger stuff in person. also fyi not all boards are tongue and grooved on the same side. found that out the hard way too 😅

Another good video.👌

Why not have a folding staircase like they do in lofts? That way it could be permanently fixed and fold away against the door?

it’s like a little den under there now 👌🏼 we never grow up 😂

Nice mezzanine 😁 Did your Metabo extractor give up the ghost? 😱

Great Work Sir 🙂🇮🇪☘️

all the Bosch tools back in the boxes?

hi can you tell what make Screwdriver bit in your drill

Nick what’s the square m2 of the unit and monthly cost mukka ? Cheers

Nice one Nick

Should of used 8x4 sheets or 22mm chipboard flooring. I'm a chippy watch an electrician 😂

Nick you know how you done the test to prove the white gloves, could you do the same for the yellow ones? 😂😉

I don't know why anyone would use CT1, it is absolutely terrible stuff. Looks good for a while after it first put on, then doesn't stick, peels away from edges, just gawdawful. anywhoo, carry on
