YESSSSS!!!!!! Tim, you are the man. I have had people call me a hack for over cut...............they insist on a pull saw or sawzall finish. I even used CAD with a radius of a 7 ¼" blade into 1 ½" lumber. Overcut ¾" on the face is ZERO on the back side....with a curved cut between them. Not An Issue. Thanks for making that point!!
Your videos are perfect for me. I love framing ,so your videos are never boring to me. Your singing ,and having fun on the job doesn’t bother me. I have music on the job except when I have to concentrate on layout and thinking about stuff. Love your good teaching, and tips. Your my awesome framer. Thanks Tim.👍👍👍👍
The way you mix it up is great in these videos. I like to see normal speed to get the feel of what it’s like to work on a build site. Plus the sped up parts with you commenting on what’s going on is entertainment as well because you can point out details and mistakes along the way. I’m a tool guy too so please do talk about your nail guns, hammer, speed square, etc.. some guys on yt do toolbox tours. Look it up, it’s pretty cool if you love to gawk at tools lol.
I love a mixture -- good to see you explain, then show and then watch you complete the task (sped up) I think the balance you have is pretty much spot on. imho
Love your channel. Infotainment. I really enjoyed your story about training yourself to use the nailer lefty. Whatever you do in life as a craft, experience creates method and should be shared with others. Keep the content coming!
Just had a neighbor crying about the drone, saying I was spying on their property. After much deliberation that took 45 minutes I finally convinced them by having the lady running the drone. Now we’re best friends 🤠 I always train for safety then accuracy. Equipment and staging creates both. Spent to many years walking walls with cords and hose to sacrifice the the technology we have now. Bla bla bla I can on and on. Great video!
I found your channel because Perkins Builder Brothers mentioned you. I haven't seen enough of your episodes, but I'm used to time lapses on other channels. I'm new to the 2x, and I don't think I like it. 1x speed for one rafter, then a time-lapse for the next 18 works for me.
Wouldn't change a thing. You make framing interesting, and at times 'interesting' isn't exactly what most carpenters would call it!lol! Thanks for the video!
Hey Tim in my past life ; once upon a time in a far far away place I had a friend who was a member of the “ Green Team” ( if you don’t know Google it). He was thee nicest guy, totally helpful, and in a room of a 100 ppl never would you pick him out as that “ Guy”. Bout 170 pounds? I hv seen him eat 3 plates of food ordered at a restaurant? And I seen him do over 500 incline sit ups on a board ( I left got tired of hearing him count after I said no way!). Put it this way ? I think they are born that way, not made thru a set of steps to accomplish their goal. And all that testing the military does? It’s to find them! Anyway we are such a fortunate country to hv men like that. And you were born to frame and teach! That’s why I am here brother! Truthfully there are actually so few men ( and some ladies) that can frame a house correctly, following plans and knowing when to deviate if needed plus cut a roof. A form of non conventional art !
You seem to be picking the perfect time to speed up the footage. Explain it once and then speed on through it. Especially if you are giving input over the top of it. Came out perfectly clear as to what you are doing.
I was having flashbacks to an addition we built back in the 1980s. My boss back then had been doing masonry since 1936 and carpentry since the late 1940s. We had toe nailed the floor joists into a ledger (16” on center this being Connecticut) and the building inspector made us add joist hangers. After the walls were up and were framing the low pitch shed roof I said to my boss we’re going to have to use hangers for the rafters. The boss said toenails are good enough so after the roof sheathing was on and the ceiling was framed I had to install joist hangers with all the ceiling joists in my way. I like the mix of real time and fast forward.
II watch your videos for educational purposes. I think you’re great at explaining things and make it easy to understand. Do not speed up the videos. Longer the video the better it is.
Voice over is great. 2x speed is good after we've seen the process. You can always go back to look at it again if needed. Editing is great as is the educational content. Just passed by 107 exam and flying a Mini 4 Pro. Which DJI are you fling?
I watch everything at 2x (people seem smarter to me then). Occassionally I will start skipping ahead when I get bored with content; it is more a mood thing than an editing thing. I think you do a great job with your editing, although you could have saved about 40 seconds comfortably wtih the rafter/joist install.
Your video formats are pretty good! Long format RUclips videos are always nice and you always seem to have bits to joke about and run alongside explaining every aspect of a construction concisely. The drone footage and close in normal footage is a nice alternative. My only concern would be footage file size and uploading lol.
Tim - As far as the speed, here's my take. If you're able to speak and explaining details about some specific task in what you're doing, whether the audio was recorded with the clip, or it's voice-over from your studio, and that aligns well with the length of the video clip, keep it normal speed. I find myself often re-winding and re-watching sections of this type of video to catch the nuances, so speeding past stuff just makes it harder. If, on the other hand, you've explained how to do a task and now you want to talk about something more general, or you want to segue into another topic, and in the video you're repeating the thing you explained 40 times (say hanging joist hangers...) - speed that up to whatever speed lines up well with the length of your talking points. This seems like how you're generally running these videos, which is probably why I keep coming back :) edit: I did notice - during the rafter cutting clip, the audio of the saw and you talking from the source clip was a little loud relative to your voice-over and distracting from your speaking. I know that's a hard thing to get right every time, but I'd probably err on the side of the original being too quiet than too loud when speaking over it.
I think your editing and speed is generally good. Yes, a few spots that were repetitive, but overall not bad. I do have a question though; why are your ceiling rafters such large dimension lumber? I mean I would assume that just a ceiling rafter, but only need to be a 2 x 4, but looks like you use a 2 x 6 or 2 x 8. just curious why go through the expense as it doesn’t do a whole lot as far as structural. The 2x10 for the roof rafter seems more than adequate as well based on the 8-9 foot span that I think I am seeing… btw, I actually appreciate you type of humor… I have the same type and it seems misty people don’t get it… good on you being you 👍
Well, in the mid west to the east coats, we use 16 on center because of snow load. I've replaced plenty of caved in roof with 24 on center with 16 on center because they caved in from the heavy snow load. usually starting with 6/12 and lower pitch
IMO, for layouts and the first couple of cuts or assemblies go real time. For anything repetitive, go fast or time lapse. I think that's pretty much what you do already, so stick with that. It's a good balance and it works.
Hey Tim, any chance for a real time review of the Paslode XP pro ? We had chippies test it 3 yrs ago here in Sydney and the review was that it’s not really required so Paslode Aus/NZ never released it here. My questions are is it really 10% more powerful considering the XP sat at 82 Joules and the other is fuel efficiency?
@ is it more powerful than the XP, does the fuel last longer, is the bump fire really worth it. Does the drive pin ever get stuck by the magnet. You use used and have used many types of nailers and you’ve been in the game since grass was invented so you know your guns and you love your toys. Also I’m heading to Hawaii at Xmas, so if it’s worth it I may decide to buy one whilst visiting your pacific island state
Video speed and pacing: You know best because you built and filmed it. My moods change. Sometimes, i like watching videos of people getting tasks completed in real time. Other times, especially when it's repetitive, I still like the real-time explanation of what's going on, but once the explanation is complete and the real-time example or three are done, then a sped up version is good. RUclips would do well to offer a "content creator" speed recommendation that has your suggested speed and pacing of a video that is playable at real-time speed. I can choose to watch it at what you recommend, but if I want to slow it down and watch it all real-time, then allow me that, RUclips. Also, don't worry about repeating yourself if that ever bothers you. If you've told us in a previous video, but you feel like telling us again like we've never heard it before, then tell it again as if it's fresh and new.
you mentioned that you reaaaally liked the makita saw, i was surprise to see the dewalt one, then you coment on it... so, why you change tool sometimes?
This DeWalt saw is from 2017 or 2018. We didn't really like it then but had it for a tool review for JLC. It is a beast, so we leave it on the ripping guide.
The only thing I dislike as much as trusses is 24" O/C. At least go 19 3/16" O/C. Yes, I am an East Coast carpenter. More wood = stronger. Matt Risinger all wants us to live in Igloo Coolers. Hermetically sealed in so we can heat our homes with a fart.
Tim, we watch these videos to watch and learn, if anyone wants to watch these quicker(not sure why) they can speed up their own speed. We love the silly signing, the silly stories, the drop in. Anyone who doesn't like them, can go pound sand. And I'm Canadian, so I'm saying that in a nice way, sorry, not sorry. Now back to the Canadian police chase video

2:25 fixing a 2" thick ledger to a wall with 5/8" zip siding with 3 " nails.... Yikes! How about instead of going crazy driving excessive amounts of nails that penetrate a massive 3/8" into a wall stud that each wall stud also gets at least 1x 4" bugle head screw and half as many nails.
@@AwesomeFramers Yes its Ok If you are a incompetent wall framer trying to make up for quality fixings with excessive amounts of nails... because quick, cheap and lazy = nothing Awesome at all, please avoid this business.
@@AwesomeFramers : That ignorance was clearly on display by somebody thinking this is what all framers should be doing @ 2:25 Yikes that's embarrassing and lazy seeing the screw guns were in the same shot.

Speeding up through repetitive tasks only makes sense. Everyone’s busy. I think the way you’ve been doing it is fine.
I like the editing/talk over style, seems like more work can be accomplished this way 😂
I like the teaching approach. I tend to avoid videos with big time lapses or longer than an hour

How do you find your rafter length? Do you set the ridge and literally measure or just use a calculator. Would love to see a video on that
8:31 maybe a morning stretching routine at work right before you start for the day?

Yep, and that's why there is no "one answer" but rather based on local conditions.

Could never get used to using the saw with the plunge feature would just throw me off suspect it just comes down to preference.

So how are you liking akribis? A fellow carpenter of mine tried them out. He loved the organization, but found them to be too heavy.
They are ok. Luke asked me to try them out as a minimalist. I just don't like leather. I started with leather and moved to nylon back in 2000
Are you planning to use joist hangers?
yep
As far as I'm concerned, it's good if you show the first two, and the last, iterations in normal speed, then speed up the rest.
Could you do a video for those of us idiots (me) wondering how you knew where to put the ledger and the calculations that go into that process?
