Excellent job! I do enjoy watching you work. It reminds me when we own a diesel garage. I kept the books, was an extra set of hands and did parts&supply runs for things that couldn't be delivered quick enough by order. I have a certificate in welding and air conditioning because they wouldn't let me pick up the parts unless I could pass the written test. 🤣 I was always at home in the garage among the grease & brake dust! That's why I can joke "Pat didn't do it like that." he's been hearing me say for decades, "Are you sure that's the way it goes? 🤨"
I've ran a lot through that old planer bought it new a few hundred years ago! 🤔😉. The floor turned out great and the truck is coming together nicely. Thanks!
Thank you Lynette! We made the rot go away, and the floor is holding up nicely. I have installed a 72" tool cabinet over 75% of it which covers up the seam I had to make to get it installed.
Well done good and Faithful. . . .Only problem now is that you are stacking up all the projects here, that you'll be accomplishing the next time you swing by. . . . . and You do know I'll even hold the camera, while you're being such a great help. . . . . . Thank You Mr. Patrick, I am truly interested in the basics of the laminated lumber / counter top, point by point, and are there any fasteners {Screws, bisquets, or other } installed laterally? If the area repaired, were a high traffic area, what you have done differently? Once again, Thank You Both. B BIG Time Blessed, 2 day & 4 ever, in YAH'SHUA's Mighty and Matchless Name. . . . .
The material was simply glued with Titebond III. One can use biscuits or dowels but it is unnecessary. There is enough surface area and a good water proof adhesive is being used. The cross members and I-beams are also close together so the floor is pretty ridged. Good question of concern. If it was a high traffic area I would consider working in tongue and groove into each panel where the individual panels slide together but the glue-ups would remain the same as I did this one. I would also pay closer attention to the 1-1/8" thickness instead of the finished 1" requiring shims. Thanks for hanging out at the shop...and shop truck!
Always nice to find someone on youtube that knows what they are doing.
That is beautiful Pat. I absolutely love that type of design! Really shows the different grain in the woods.
I would imagine the original floor looked pretty nice as well. Thanks!
I always enjoy watching you take care of equipment repair. Nice job Patrick. Phil
As always, Thanks Phil for hanging out with us... in the shop... and box truck shop!

😀Looks like I could take some lessons from you! Thanks for stopping by the shop...and shop truck.
Thanks, Mr Rain. I actually enjoy work like this!
Problem solving and practical application. I enjoy it as well.
That turned out great! Should last a long time now! My husband would love a planner like that. Had to chuckle at the “mouse catcher”.

Looks good Pat! Many Blessings!!
Thank You!
Awesome craftsmanship.
Thank you Katie!
Thank you Pat.🙂

Thank you Trish!
That looked so good. Amazing
Ha ha, yeah, it makes the rest of the floor look bad...I need to cover it up and hide it now 😆
Nice work as always!
Appreciate that Joyce. Nice to have that little project done. Now off to the next.

What size are the floor screws and drill bit size?
