On your drill, cutter depth for the drain pipe, when you put the tape for a marker, leave a tab of tape about an inch long and it will show you when you’re flush with the floor face.

I was also thinking about this, and wondering if a laser set to match a point somewhere on the drill would also be helpful? Like a horizontal laser set to match the height of the trigger, or chuck or some other datum point on the drill when the correct depth is reached 🤔 Probably a whole lot more faffing about than a flag of tape though.

Dry pack tip! Straight edges not levels to screed. When using the float to work the surface of the mud. You generally want to keep the float pointed from the drain to the wall. This is another form of a straight edge, and you are working in a "funnel" that is not flat in all directions. If the float is turned facing the front and back wall, you will have hollow spots under the float and the ends of the float tend to dig in as well.

Nah I found you guys while looking for tips to hang a ceiling fan. That was two years ago and I've been with you guys ever since. Great channel!

I’ve been watching a little bit longer than that, i think since Jordan’s spaceship bed! I feel like a Stud Pack Plank Holder (OG Fan). It’s gone by fast!

Paul looked terrified at the prospect of operating the camera… so now we know, Paul makes the work look easy and Jordan make the high quality video work look easy. Kudos to both.

I've said it before, but I have to say it again, I KNOW how difficult and time consuming it is to create great content like this. Saw the joke about Paul's "few" takes to get some of those details down, very funny!! 😅 But your editing is outstanding, Jordan! We really appreciate all you guys do and I'm loving every frame, baby!! Total pro quality all around!! Woooooo!!! 🤩

Ahahahha when he ruined your corner ! 😂 Jordannnnn you did SUCH a great job on the mud!!!!!!! It’s literally one of the hardest tasks ( next to finishing drywall) Pops is getting good with those close up camera shots ! Job swap more often 👏🏼

I remember Jordan sneaking up on Paul doing just a little more tweaking to the dry pack maybe 2 years ago. "What are you doing, Dad?"

Rubber gaskets under compression are the best practice for sealing joints. Everything from airplanes and rockets to highways and bridges use this technology. Prices have come down and availability has gone up, so anyone can afford rubber gaskets for their plumbing (this is how Sharkbites work), roofing (when the rubber neck of the flashing is smaller than the pipe, the rubber stretches over it and creates an incredibly tight seal), siding, and so on. These MiTek products for the bathroom look great!

I'm so glad you guys put Delta shower valves in, I was an apprentice service plumber for a year and a half they are so easy to repair down the line. Just pull the cartridge and plug a new one in and good as new if it ever starts leaking.

Oh man that Triton looks really great to work with. Always appreciate you guys educating us on newer products and how to install them.

Whooo that main room is an echo chamber. You gotta get something soft in there. Throw down some drop clothes or something. Amazing content as always. I was a photographer and videographer for years, so I understand how hard it all is. Jordan, you do a great job, and have clearly worked hard and picked up the craft very quickly. I love all three of y'all, and your work. It's entertaining, educational, and always feels personal and personable.

So glad to see you hand the reins over to Jordan and the future construction generation! Great job Paul and thank you for always being the best DIY instructional teacher!! Your Stud Pack videos are A++

Looks like a 1/2" shaft collar, instead of tape, would be a nice addition to that internal pipe cutter. You could just use a putty knife to let the shaft collar to ride on so you get the eight depth and you wouldn't have to stand on your head trying to line up the tape.

I like the backer board because it has a water proof face but I would do one better to the floor before the tar paper. Just like I did in my interior floor of my 100+ year old house which I removed the Tung and grove pine as all was loose and uneven and added 3/8" subfloor sheet on top of a solid nailed and glued subfloor below. When I was all done I covered the entire floors with exterior porch and deck acrylic paint to seal from water and stains from getting through. I would do the same in the bathroom shower to keep any water that may get through not to rot the floor. Every room in my house has a painted floor under the Carpet and wood flooring.

As usual a great video. I, too, am building a new home, and when I see exciting new products, I try to figure out how to use them. However, I keep running into the same hitch when I try to buy them. They are not widely distributed, and when you can find them, you have to buy at least a pallet or a truckload or pay the cost of a truckload. Same situation here with the Triton Waterproof Backerboard. DAL Tile is the distributor, but the local stores/showrooms don't carry it. In my case, the regional distribution center doesn't either. The national distribution is supposed to carry but then you have to buy a large quantity. Luckily they sent you the product so you could show us.

Paul does the best mud pack/shower installation videos. He did a remod that the studs were rotten. He repaired it like a pro. Good schooling!

I love the longer videos 🎉🎉

I am planning on building a guest house on my property and you guys inspire me to tackle some of the stuff myself. Too expensive to subcontract everything.

I think you are the most honest builder out there. I been a builder for Over 10 yrs and learn from you on every video. Thanks.

Great waterproofing details, thanks Pete. Another product to consider

Bathroom first is excellent. I can't wait to see the rest of such beautiful dream garage build. Great work guys. God bless you all ❤

Fantastic job, the garage is coming together!

This build is really coming along nicely!

Love the detail. Following all the industry standards.

You all do a great job, so much work behind the scenes that doesn't get shown! Love the content, thank you for all the effort posting it.

Awesome guys! It will be cool to see the finished garage! Hope you guys do a nice slow walk through of it once completed. 👍❤️👍

Great job, loved learning about Triton ,I may use it on my bath that's up for reno next!

You guys are doing an awesome job. It feels good to be able to do it with your own hands.

I love the idea of the sealant onnthe inside corners of the niche. I have been debating how to tackle mine and now I know how I will do it

Great video, guys!, I'll be keeping the triton shower system in mind for any future shower jobs !

That's a great looking shower and it's not even done! Going to look FIRE when its finished!

Love it! I've been waiting for these videos. Your father has so much knowledge of how best to build things. He brings his A game for you every day. You're a lucky man Jordan. Nice job btw.

as you mentioned in the beginning of this video, yes, I found you guys when I googled bathroom remodel and still, it looks so much fun and educational when you guys do the bathroom projects.

Looking fantastic Studpack

I think you did great on the camera work Paul. Really fun to see the role swap. And hearing the story about Pete was super awesome too. So cool how some simple things can really take on a life of their own. Keep on with the awesome work! Thank you so much for the videos Jordan!

👍🏾 loving the longer videos!

Love watching the progress! You guys are great!!! Does Triton have the shower pans like Schluter does? If they do, how come you didn’t go with that instead of the dry pack?

Nice choice using the Delta Multi-Choice valve body with the intergal stops.

I really enjoyed watching Jordan do the dry pack. I’ve been wondering if I could do one myself or not. I don’t think I’ve watched you do as many as Jordan has, but I have watched you do several. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

Most excellent video gentlemen!!! I'm really glad to see you getting started on the bathroom, especially the shower. I will be starting mine soon, 42"x93"...my whole life I have wanted a shower you could party in, and it's becoming a reality!!! Can't wait to see your tile design! Keep 'em coming brothers!! 😁

Love new products and techniques

It is amazing how far this channel has come! The production quality is top notch and the entertainment factor is just amazing plus you do learn a lot. Thank you guys for the continued amazing work!

Way to go Jordan good job man . Hands on the only way to learn.

Speaking as an old man with bladder issues -- yeah! the bathroom comes first! Great job, too! And Bluetti looks amazing...

Will definitely check out the Triton wall board when I remodel our bathroom and shower! Great work and great video!

Nice system, great video, makes me think I can do a shower myself with this system.

I appreciate the detail on the drain measurements. Seen this stuff done wrong so many times and have to fix someone else's work.

Did you forget that the shower valve trim needs to screw into the valve body? The trim ring is made to keep the distance and allow you to install the screws. Hmmm, maybe that’s just a diverter? I see the main valve on the other wall. Guess we’ll see if it needs screws.

You did great on the camera Paul!

I just finished my first, down to the studs bathroom renovation, thanks in no small part to what I've learned from you guys. Keep up the great work, Paul, Jordan and Rad. Always excited to see a new episode up!

Nice job on the shower!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks great

Good job Paul with the camera!

The thinset should be thinner than that while you're using it to adhere the membrane. You put it on so thick that now you should float the wall to take out the humps. Niche is the primary source of leaks. It should be waterproofed better than that. Also, after you are done waterproofing, a liquid membrane should be rolled on. You want three layers of waterproofing (backerboard, liquid membrane, tile/grout)

Hello StudPack team...want to thank you for turning us on the Big Stretch...had to re-caulk some interior window trim, and Big Stretch made it so easy to apply and tool the bead. What a great product, well worth the extra cost. Thanks again for proving the product for us!

DadCam was awesome! He did a great job. Outstanding video.

Great video guys. Have to look into this new backer board. Looks a lot easier to install for sure. Great job Jordan on the mud pack. Glad to see Paul is handing off to you. Rad great job on mixing the mud & thin set. Want to see you tiling in the shower now. Waiting on your next video guys. 😊

Great series.

You guys are amazing.

Just used something similar for my bathroom reno called DensShield. So much easier and faster than cement board.

I did two DIY bathroom makeovers, one a standalone shower, the other a tub with the shower, in my house a decade and a half ago. I wish these products had been available then, because I can see how much easier it has to be, based on the weight difference alone from regular cement backer board. Thanks, I always look forward to these videos.

Excited to see that shower!!!

Thanks!

I tried to get the water proof Triton but it was not available during Covid. I was able to get the basic version and it was very easy to use. I then covered it with two coats of Red Guard. That sealed the surface and the joints. I don't know if you have ever tried it, but I have been using Omni grip tile adhesive for the last 15 years. I use the Omni grip on the walls and thinset on the shower floor. I also use the Schluter shower pan for all my showers.

A 40 min studpack video hell yeah love it !!!

Hey Stud pack, thanks for the video. I was curious why you didn't build a screed around the perimeter like you did in another video out of kerdi board? I have done 3 tile showers after watching that video and used that technique each time and it has worked out sweet for me! Really takes out the guesswork and it goes really fast. Another cool trick I learned from another youtuber when mixing the dry pack is to use the heavy duty contractor trash bags to mix, just add the mix with the water and roll around the bag, then dump it out into the shower. Thanks for the awesome content I have learned a lot from your videos.

Nice job on the shower! Surprised you guys didn't go with one of the pre-formed or custom shower bases available, considering all the new tech you've incorporated into this build.

Love the video! ❤❤❤ How much does the Triton board compare to others you’ve used? Wonder how easy it is to get. Also, what trowel was Jordan using to smooth out the dry pack?

Crazy how expensive insulation, drywall, studs, wire, etc is now. When I was growing up doing construction work, started around 13, now 39. The price of drywall for 4x8 sheet was skyrocketing. At around $2-$4 a sheet, I thought "holy crap that's outrageous!" And a 2x4x96 stud was something like $0.95 each. And a 250' roll of Romex was around $30. Now drywall is $26 a sheet, a stud is just over $4 and Romex is an insane $168 😮😮😮😮😮

Hey Gang! Love the videos! I was interested in the Triton boards. Any links you can share on where to get the products? I was inly able to find one website. Seems hard to get. Thank you & and great job on the bathroom!

Good video! The only detail missing was what type of fasteners(screws) recommended for the Triton board? I'm guessing just regular black drywall screws, otherwise you would have specified something different??

What screws did you use to install the Triton backerboard? Does it require a specialty screw? Everything looks awesome!!

Awesome work gang!

Again, thank you for using Metabo cordless power tools. This is how I roll. I have replaced every one of my old cordless power tools with only Metabo cordless power tools.

Great stuff! Do you have any great ideas. The pipe exits the floor and is tight against the foundation. And suggestions?
