I've been a production framer my whole life...Phx/Vegas. I respect your skills 110%. The only thing I do differently is I use screws for my temp braces, mostly because they come out so dang easy when I take them down and no pulling nails and the wood doesn't break when you hammer it. Been known to whack yourself with a hammer too... I have kinda studied motion all my life and I can tell you the labor savings from using screws is real. 1 other thing I do is instead of making a crows foot with my pencil, I only make 1 mark and run the mark off the board, knowing that wherever the pencil line starts is my exact measurement...it saves time from making a second mark(crows foot). I know it's micro time but when you do things hundreds of times/day and thousands/week it adds up. This type of mind frame makes you successful (and wealthy--I retired at 57 yrs old)
All good stuff John thanks for that. I agree completely with you about screws and marks, and there are certain times where I employ both of those techniques. A lot of times if I’m just marking a board I’ll make the single mark and let it fade so I know the dark end is where I want to be. if I am marking out a floor I’ll do a Crowsfoot because it’s easier for me to see and a lot of times if the wood is wet the pencils just don’t work anyway so you need that advantage. I’m also fighting a genetic vision disorder that makes things either appear really good or not at all depending on the light so screw heads have a way of completely disappearing for me. I do use SDS screws sometimes (which show up good) when I really need something to hold and I probably should just change to doing that all the time. I appreciate a Pro chiming in and watching my stuff, framing is an awesome sport and it’s all the same and all different depending on what part of the country you’re in :-)
Now I see what is going on, when your given a cut measurement of 11/64ths and some crazy angle...your building the piano...not the box the piano plays in....LOL Good post Jake, really appreciate you economy of motion! Until your next post!!
I sheeted my house with 1”1/8 sub and when I changed flooring I the screwed the entire floor system down! It squeaks no matter what nails u use ! I am a finish carpenter my dad at the times built customs and specs ! So we were not rookies! Now anything I can put down with screws then that is the fastener used!
Absolutely and great question. The panels that I glue are floor panels and the thinner panels that I don't glue are roof panels (flat roof) it is not the best idea to glue roof sheeting to engineered joists because if there is ever a leak the glue can rip the top of the joist off if someone was to try to remove it.
At this point, it’s still a spec house, but it’s been shown three times now so there’s quite a bit of interest. And thanks for noticing the sub count, I’m still totally amazed by it:-)
Man I wish those guys the best. They don't need me in the way. I've torn a few large things apart and the amount of potential kinetic energy built up in those bridge girders just makes my skin crawl. Having to cut them apart in the dark, underwater is unimaginable.@@Z-Bart
Without a timestamp I'm just guessing but do you mean where the green PT plywood is? if it is, that is the recess to create a curbless shower pan where the floor can be sloped to a trench drain and it still leaves room for waterproofing, tile backer and then tile to slope at the break line. The whole room will use large rectangular tiles and and they will continue into the shower as well. super clean look when finished
Couldn't help noticing that black car parked in the middle of the street on a curve @ 46:00. Would suck if someone came around the curve and couldn't stop in time. Anyway, the house build is coming along nicely.
It’s a good thing I’m not operating the crane or the fork lift because if I was every structure within 100 feet would be at least partially demolished by now.

Hahahahaha Love it!
This is SO IMPRESSIVE to see one man build a complicated residence like this by himself. Crazy good. Love the channel
Glad you found your way here!
Beyond what’s already beyond. This construction is almost a cathedral. Maitre Charpentrier, chapeau bas encore une fois.
Thanks Michel:-)
Amazing how much nicer it is to work when the sun comes out to play
totally

Thanks for another great video Jake. This frame job is coming along nicely. Great craftsmanship. ❤
I do not see many people today with your work ethic
I think my secret is that I just really love to build things and I get to do it all day long if I go to work:-)
And ...another planned , adjusted and prepared landing...
No muss no fuss...pretty much spot on ..
Good design and proofed methods...
Carry on...
Thanks Peter!
It looks like an exceptionally wonderful day to build. I wish 90% of the days were like this for you.
That whole week was pretty much just like that and I haven't forget it. It's kind of cool to be reminded of it in the video too:-)
That house and your camera have nice and ooak angles. Great videos.. 🐐
Thanks for that!
Seeing this posted made my day :)
I'm trying to get it out before bedtime for the east coast boys:-)
@@ShredPile You posted just in time for my mid morning coffee (time-zones) :)
Perfect!!@@paulhammond7489

lol, it just strikes me as funny when I see the unrounded dimensions that got forgotten in the process:-)

I ❤the amazing view and the shape of the house .
I really enjoy your videos and you really show a lot of really good details❤
Glad you are enjoying the series!
Great job ❤❤
Oh it is a two story I am talking bout the top floor ! Main floor seems to be better ? ( 2500 sq ft)
Good to see sun
Wow, another great step.
Can you explain me why some pavement panel are glued and other not?
Thanks an see you next

Great video! Thanks for the content and entertainment. By the way, do you have 48 hrs in your days because you get a lot done 😂
That would be a superpower worth having!
WOW! It's not raining!
lol, give it five minutes :-) it won’t let you down…
Crane worth 2 men, easily!
Totally, some days twice that. You'll see next week :-)
Is the future homeowner one of your subs? You're growing fast. Almost 10K subs!
At this point, it’s still a spec house, but it’s been shown three times now so there’s quite a bit of interest. And thanks for noticing the sub count, I’m still totally amazed by it:-)
@@ShredPile We could take your crane to Baltimore, rent a barge. Just think of all the subs you'd get. Live feed. Lol.
@@ShredPile 113/128" = .88. 7/8" = .875 or what I would call close enough. Lol.

IKR? I mean my pencil lead alone is 32/256th..... :-) @@Z-Bart
Question from a non-tradesman paper pusher. What is the rectangular cutout in the flooring at the edge of the wall for?

@@ShredPile That’s it! The recess for the shower pan. Thank you!
@@paulbush7095 You got it!
At 18:40 is realized something is different about this video. It’s not raining. 😂
It felt like the middle of summer:-)

haha, sometimes I handle that all on my own:-)
I'm passionate about your videos, you're doing a very good job. By the way, may I ask, who is the architect of this project?
Thanks, It's a local firm William / Kaven
Thank you Jake, for your reply. I’ll contact them for my next project in Washington.
Hi sir how are you🙋
I’m doing great Sohail, thanks for watching early!
👍🇦🇺
I appreciate your skill as a carpenter, but can you really measure to 45/256ths of an inch??😳🙄🤣
Heck no!:-) I was joking with another commenter here that it's tough because my pencil lead itself is 32/256th :-)
@@ShredPile actually it is just less than 4.5 mm so even with fading eyesight that might be possible… if your tape measure has mm😬🙄
Haha:) it just shows yet again that measurements only exist so that we can communicate!
Jake, what’s the make and model of that self erecting crane? 🏗️
Benedini B618 Love that thing!
