Great tip. Thank you. Still down to work with you bro. Let me know. I’m out here in Cali.
When the truck is parked downstairs and up a hill and u left the planer in the truck
lol exactly
a 6X16?
Basically but when it’s a GLB specs call out 5-1/4 by 15 inch exactly with a 1/2 inch camber in the mid span. 👍
My bro and I did this a couple years ago.. We bought a set of block and tackle rigging, and a cheap wench. Then rented two beam lifts, and we were able to move 3 massive beams all the way to the 3rd story of a house without breaking a sweat, and without risking an injury
That’s how you do it 👍 we didn’t rent any Block and tackle we just used a Husky ratchet strap as our block and tackle. Worked out great 👍 Thanks for sharing your experience sounds like a great build.
@@co-know-proconstructiontips The ratchet strap is pretty good idea too
lol i could put that beam up there solo
👍😎💪 I Bet you could!!
Thank you! Video was moving a little fast, but I finally understood how you were doing it😊
awesome you are so welcome
Love those material lifts worth the money 👍😎
Big time, i like the way they can be used in so many different ways it’s crazy.
@@co-know-proconstructiontips Big time like the way you guys put that material lift in the back of the truck that was awesome 👏 Iv done that a few times myself 😊
This is a technique we call “polish planing”
🥴👍
Or you can just hold the stack and if you are good hit one off at a time.
🥴💪
Thanks
Where were the tips?
Well if you don’t know how to frame a window or have not seen one framed before. This video might help people understand how to frame a window. At least the process. 👍😎
@@co-know-proconstructiontips fair. I was just expecting some info on things like how many nails to use, best wood cut, etc.
That is really really really good feedback thank you and I appreciate your comment. Hundred percent. 💯 we will definitely start upping our tips and information. Our goal is to spread construction knowledge and basic stuff like that is very important. Very cool. again thank you for taking the time to leave this cool comment. 👍😊
@@co-know-proconstructiontips you're welcome, and thanks for taking the constructive feedback! Keep up the good work 👍🤙
I call this the not my house not my problem hack
If it was your house then you would have a badass house. We are adding a second story to a 90 year old house. This video you commented on is us adding an under pad we underpinned to the existing foundation. During this process we noticed some of the old floor joists were crowned with big hips in them that caused the existing floor to have higher levels than the rest of the floor. So before we added our new subfloor plywood we hit the high spots with a skill saw Kerf technique then we smoothed out and leveled with a power planner. The final product is awesome level subfloor. Even though this section is going to be under the new washer closet we still wanted it level. Thanks for the lame comment lol
the part that worries me is that this is called “technique” 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
it shouldn’t worry you at all what worries me is that it worries you 😔 Lol in your logical mind. This is lame and isn’t used but every Framing crew on the planet does this you just may not see it but it’s done. All good 👍
@@co-know-proconstructiontips and I seen worst I did remodeling for 15 years but we only did high end remodeling so most times there was not repairs but redo, and when did repairs we had to do as pro as it could be. but people will always try to fix stuff the easy way, I used to build guitars like in that trade you can't do stuff like that. ha in an old deck if the customer don't care then so be it
Keep it up❤
appreciate you👍😎
You lost me with the mask. Cute
thanks for watching anyways appreciate the comment 👍😎
The polish plain
🥴
nice!!!! can you just build it for me?
Thanks 😊 we can build one for you it’s about 1,300 to 1,800 for the build. And this price does not include shipping. We are out of Burbank CA if your within 30 miles from us we can dilever. 👍😎
Planer
Yup after we bring the material down with the saw we smooth out with a power planer. Standard drill
I learned how to "rub" with a saw in 7th grade shop class
Thats awesome i was 8 when i learned how to kerf wood with a skill saw. Dad’s a builder so would pick up some skills on the weekend when i would go with him.
Or burn off the plastic retainers
nah keep the clip together and twist one sideways as you need it if you need to use a hammer.
classic technique 👍🏻
Thanks 😊
Hack
Go feed some snakes 🐍 buddy you don’t know what you’re talking about 🥴😂
I'm going to try to install coax/ethernet lines between walls. Thanks.
You can do it 👍
@co-know-proconstructiontips the orange cover stays but the ehrernet/coax plate screw doesn't seem to be grabbing. My other concern is the cat 6 and coax cable may be too long, inside the wall, and may push on the plates in the adjoined rooms, lol.
Saw the end result it was beautiful 👍🔥
Thanks DTC!! 👍😎
pretty basic
Great craftsmanship can be seen and appreciated in even the most basic. Taking pride in every aspect of work will allow the final product to truly speak for itself.
🥴
@@whaleofawomanGreat comment 👍🏻
Sawzall work better 😂
Na😂
Wow! The craftsmanship is on point! Amazing work! 💪🏼 🔨
Thanks for this awesome comment!! Appreciate you 😎👍💪
I've never seen 3 by's being used for stringers but it makes way more sense than the 2 by's. They always end up splitting somewhere.
We love the 3 stringers so strong 💪 also there 3x14 so very stout. So true on the stringers splitting great comment thanks for sharing your experience.
I cant believe you can use the square stops. Never meet a piece of wood that wasnt rounded so much that they would sit against the wood corectly. Gave up and threw them away eventually.
I totally feel you man these pieces of 3 x 14 were actually very square. The edges were almost perfect 90s. 👍
3x14? You don't f*** about!
Bro, this is so clean and professional! I've seen it when others overcut them.As always , great work!! #professionalwork
wow, thank you so much for this. Awesome comment, bro. I appreciate you so much. Finally, someone who knows what they’re looking at lol 👍😎💪
This is clean work 👍🏻😎
Thanks DL Appreciated
"How to lose a finger in 10 seconds" The movie
🥴If your lame 😒
@@co-know-proconstructiontips you're*
3 x 14 ??? 😂😂😂 Edit: or do you mean 3 2x14s .. 🙄
yep 3 x 14 that’s what the plans are calling out for I had to do a double take myself most expensive and strongest stairs I’ve ever ever built lol 😂
@@co-know-proconstructiontips doubling up 2 2x14s would have done the same thing for half the price .... Most are just 2x12s ...
That’s without saying but the engineer wanted solid 3 x 14 semi clear. It actually was a little cheaper than 2-2x14 thanks for the comment
I take my height from the ground to the top of the plywood and divide that by how many treads I have for my height on my risers and if that comes out to be more than 7 3/4” then I add a tread and redo my math so my riser is closer to 7”
yeah man, I go from rough subfloor to rough subfloor. Divide that by seven is what I started out with and this time it came out with an even number 16 risers at 7 inches. 👍😎
@@co-know-proconstructiontips awesome man I appreciate the knowledge. It’s always beneficial to learn different ways to do something!
We in upstate New York call that the Chinese Buzz saw! It definitely helps in a pinch!🤏
Nice like that one 👍😎
That sucks!
Ya it does
I'm a carpenter and it's a great trick I use too.
Big time 👍Thanks for the comment 😎
All the people commenting saying this is not professional chippy work have zero fcking idea what they are talking about. This is a valid technique for the right situation, obviously you wouldn’t use it for Finnish work or anything that requires accuracy. But for first fix carpentry is very useful.
Couldn’t have said it better myself, my friend I barely pay attention to these clowns, leaving these lame comments. They obviously don’t know what they’re doing or have experience if they don’t understand or use this technique. All good I got love and respect for everybody and I appreciate you and your feedback. Very cool.
It’s actually a neat trick, in England we call it the polish planer.
When you call yourself a carpenter but you don’t have a hand planer
Oh, we have a hand planner. We just don’t wanna plan that hundred-year-old funky wood with our beautiful Makita hand planer so we kerf it with the skill saw like any professional would do then we hit it with the power planner but you would know that if you were any kind of pro or a carpenter. lol 😂
That was a HORRIBLE install job with PATHETIC final results. I don't think I would have used THIS as a video of "How To" unless it is HOW TO make a mess out of what SHOULD be a simple install.
you obviously don’t know what’s going on in this video if you think it’s just a simple install hilarious. Regardless of what the finishes on this video, it can inspire someone to do something similar and that’s good enough for me to post this video. Do you know the owner of this property is an artist and is going to do something cool with that strike and paint it in a way that the Finish just needed to be the way we left it but appreciate your feedback. Just try not to be a dick next time.
@@co-know-proconstructiontips If you are putting up a How To video, then you SHOULD KNOW HOW TO. IF I am a dick for pointing out that the wood work around the strike plate looks uneven and even improperly finished, then I am good with that. This IS a simple install, the fact that this person couldn't adequately complete the job with a professional and finished look isn't my fault, and I CERTAINLY wouldn't put this effort online as though it was a proper install.
Another great professional explanation ,CoKnowPro!!
Thank you so much for this awesome comment. 😊
I've watched this video at least 75 times lol What would u charge for a bar this size?
About $1,500 / 1,800 not including shipping if you are interested then send a email to us directly. Email in the about section of our channel. Thanks for watching glad you like the video 👍😎
So me and my wife built this last night. I followed your blueprint and it seems to be top heavy? I haven't added the actual shelf yet but it seems as if I add the shelf then it will tip 🤔
have you added the casters yet? If so, you may want to bring those a little bit further away from the front edge of the bar set them the furthest you can from the front edge of the bar. that should help and as far as the shelf if you referring to the bar top, that should help keep it from tipping because it will give it more weight, pushing down in the center of mass. The inside shelf as well will help give weight to the inner part which will keep it centered. not sure why yours is top-heavy. I have not had that issue with the ones that I have built. This is the only thing I can think of. Let me know how that works out once you finish. if it ends up being top-heavy, no matter what you do, you can put it in a fixed location and add two clips and anchor it to the floor on the inside of the returns then you’ll be good. It won’t go anywhere. let me know how it comes out 👍
@@co-know-proconstructiontips you're the 🐐
1 32 inch door by 80 inch high door. so its a 32 by 80 inch door. how the fuck . who the fuck even says it like that the first time.
So your that person 🙄😖 Come on not cool
Only a pro drags his blade
I used that however it didn't have a setting for the NZ standard hinges. So I built my own, works even better.
That’s how you do it!! I bet it does 👍thanks for sharing very cool 😎
And that people is why we call it "Mickey Mouse" work.
Have you seen Mickey Mouse’s House? Wow it s nice 👍 Check it out he lives at disneyland 🥴
