“I don’t see a fridge.”
It’s IKEA, you have to assemble it from all those small boxes.
Funny!
😂
Paul, you are the new Bob Villa for the RUclips generation!👊🏻👍🏻🇺🇲
😂
Tom Villa. He’s like a blend lol.
Bob just talked and never did any work. Paul is the man!
I would say a modern Larry Haun or Norm Abram bc if we are honest Bob Villa just was the show presenter not an actual carpenter
@@aron6998 norm is more of a woodworker. Larry is probably a good one though. I love watching him build even to this day even though I’ve seen a lot of em already.
A tip for the sconces:
The next time you have to custom cut a piece like that, measure the hole diameter 1/2" smaller than the diameter of the back plate. That way, when you use your screw spacers and screw the back plate in, you can suck the back plate up snug onto the cut piece (over- laying by 1/4" on each side), rather than have the plate "float" on the screws.
Great work on the pond liner rain gutters. That's one heck of a hack, and anyone who appreciates math will like the use of trapezoidal cuts to force pitch away from the house. Very nice work.
plus one on the smaller diameter, then paint the piece before nailing it up and you won't have to mask.
Great tip!
I like the concept of the rain gutters under the deck however, I can't help but wonder what it might be like we're Homes located in freezing weather?
@@billvandorn5332It absolutely wouldnt work in terms of weight support with ice; though thats where the (rather pricey) systems that use molded plastic or metal *would* work. Although, you get a lot shorter deck season out of them (I know in MD it was like a 2-3 month window from late April-early July between "too cold" and "too damn hot") so maybe there you just dont bother
Paul is my imaginary pops I can call anytime I’m in a project and he can tell me how to do it right. Great video on some newer products and of course techniques to do the job the StudPack way.
Jordan, your dad has so much helpful knowledge, it truly is a blessing to have someone like him to teach the younger generation. I am a flooring/painting contractor in Georgia, and I am in the neighborhood of your dad's age. I love the down to earth, quality of people that you, your dad, and Rad (I guess I spelled his name right) are. Keep doing what you do and please know that your authentic, genuineness as good wholesome people comes through in your videos.
The gorgeous tile on the left with movement would look fantastic in the bathroom shower and the gray on the floor, opposite of what you said ..
100% agreed!
I’ve been tiling bathrooms for some time now and I’ve seen all different types of patterns but the homogenous tile will probably look better in this space. You want the focus to be on walls not the floor
Don’t sleep on ikea kitchens. Have put two in my old house and new house, held up great quality hardware affordable and extremely easy to install
I just finished mine. I did a lot of customizations combined with a couple custom cabinets to match. They look great and saved me a ton of money.
They’re quite legitimately far better quality than the stuff you would find at your average Lowe’s or other similar home improvement center. We have some of the IKEA kitchen cabinets in our finished daylight basement for storage, and they work really well for that purpose too. I have relatives who recently renovated their kitchen with entirely IKEA products as well, and we plan to do so sometime in the future as well.
They are, BUTTTTTTT, don’t just use the fasteners. Glue them up also (no clamping needed thanks to the hardware).
@@cguy96 I used extra screws to provide more connecting strength when building the boxes.
kitchensbyrannes channel is great, he's an IKEA kitchen installer
Wow the water storage for the caulk !! Were not worthy we’re not worthy !!
Never thought I’d be addicted to a construction channel, yet here I am, every week waiting for more. Can’t wait till they start building the other house.
Honestly, until you pointed out, I would have never imagined that someone wouldn't think to flip their angles around to get more out of the material.
Since the wall tiles have a lot of texture color wise, with some pattern as well, I'd recommend going with the tile on the Right as a contrast to grittyness of the wall tile.
That DIY deck gutter is absolutely genius.

I dont even skip nor forward the advertisement, in order to not miss nor skip any Stud Pack material. Anyone else?

For making under deck gutter systems use Shower pan lining in the plumbing section of the box stores. 5 ft long rolls, no wrinkles, attach with 1in long hot dipped galv roof nails.
you can actually buy it in bulk lengths at I think 5 foot wide.
@@TheSidneySmith Yes. 5ft long rolls means they would be 5 ft wide and you could cut say, a 20 ft long roll piece that would be 5ft wide by 20 ft long.😇
The plainer one on the right will me more grounding and give a spa like vibe.
Studpack: Heads up on this one. You'll get a kick out of it. What is better than HDG nails in treasure-treated wood? Stainless steel screws. Screwas don't back out after time. You newbies never learn. You guys did one-up on me though. I built an upper deck on a two-story house and needed to protect the T&G on the underside of that deck. I had made custom galvanized sheet metal pans to fit in between the joists. Draining the water into rain gutters that were hidden into the deck. It's complicated. Long story short. If I had thought of using a pound liner to solve the problem. I might be a couple thousand bucks richer and about teen headaches short. Damn,,, Next time... Wait... No next time. I retired and no next time. I'm so glad of that. PS: I like your work. You do well for a guy who is still learning. NEVER STOP LEARNING. No matter how old you get. ( Manley hugs).
🤦🏻♂️ nobody frames house with SS screws 😂
Pex tubing works as great spacers too!
I use PEX for that also
This goes to show tradesmen are smarter than 90% of college grads. Very creative!
Perkins Builders Brothers have their own branded customizable tool belt ~ I think it’s time for a StudPack customizable branded tool belt as well.
PBB belt is chinese made garbage.. stick with pro belts made in USA..
I'd buy it no questions asked!
Next time you need to put a block in a too big opening, cut the hole slightly smaller then the light flange opening so the outside rim of the flange is supported. If necessary (depending on the flange design, a notch or hole where the two screws go that hold it to the box and there is no need for rinky-dink spacers. 😢
I wish we could show you what we've done on this reno by using all of Paul's advice.
The fact that the advice also works for Australian double brick homes is so good.
Garage is looking great! ❤
Email us! Would love to see
I renovated my old house kitchen with Ikea and then we moved to a newer more expensive house Brand new kitchen cabinets that I paid extra to have soft closed drawers on the bottom and I'm here to tell you I miss my Ikea cabinetry I had in my old house! I had the builder run plumbing for the upstairs game room wet bar and I chose to put in Ikea cabinets and they look fantastic!
"little project" lol
(that garage is a whole house, great vids)
wait until the Big Side of the House!
The garage is like 4x my house 😁
Busy tile on left, I loved that gutter system. Inexpensive, functional, requires almost no fancy tools, and we have exact instructions. Then you gave us the bonus wire coil trick.
Great great video!!!
Less movement on tile floor will be classic look and still look good in 20 years
I prefer the more homogenous tile, it looks more classy!
I'm voting for the plain tile on the right. Can't go wrong either way though. So far I love your choices for almost all aspects of the build. Budget is always a consideration and I appreciate your discussion of the tradeoffs.
Paul!!!!!! You always have hidden real world tricks, but when you said you collect all the tv mount spacers for a rainy day- you lit me up! I do the same thing. They’re so handy for future use as stand-offs, spacers, bushings… they’re tough, dielectric….and in the toolbox!
I vote the simple floor tile!
Damn, I’m early. I’ve been watching you guys for many years and I’m still enjoying the vids. Greetings from the Netherlands!
Thanks for sticking with us for so long Mryiani! 💪
The pond liner as rain redirect system is a brilliant hack! I have seen some house using corrugated roof panels to catch and redirect rainwater under a porch, but never seen that hack.
Yeah, that's what I used on my front deck, but even with a pitch, it still gets clogged up.
@@tetedur377I was thinking of this very idea! How much pitch did you put on it? I was thinking of 1/2”/12
Won't be brilliant when all the dirt & debris pile up under the deck boards.
Same technology, except pitched mine back toward the house, and tied the deck downspout into the existing roof downspout on the corner of the house. Boxed in (hid) the gutter into a soffit against the wall. IMHO a much cleaner finish than the gutter away from the house with it's own downspout (mower hazard, burial project, etc.)
The rain gutters with the pond liners was an idea that was a stroke of genius. Wish I had thought of that back in the day.
i would go with the plain tile, if you have a really nice wall tile you dont want other things competing for your attention it just makes them both look worse. Im sure you have seen overdone bathrooms or living rooms with way too many high quality things its usually a bit over the top.
Just got my footing inspection approved (for MY dream garage), the sun is shining and now there's a new Stud Pack video. This is a great Thursday!
get after it.
I like the planer of the two floor tiles for the bathroom. Solid grey, no veins...
4:00 You should put wood blocks above the fan rated boxes between the joists, for more support.
I agree. I just replaced the ceiling fan in the master bedroom. The fan rated ceiling box the old fan was mounted to was too narrow for the new fan’s bracket. If it were not for the blocking around the box, I would have been in the attic yesterday installing some. The new style Hunter mounts are wider than the 40 year old mounts.
I made those style spacers years ago, they can’t be beat! Nice job Paul, Jordan and Rad! If this is how nice the garage and apartment will be, I can just imagine the main house.
I built an IKEA kitchen and laundry room, they look great and six years later are still as beautiful and functional as they did on day one!
Ikea gets a bad rap sometimes .. Its like any store, they offer different qualities across the product line
Yea I have had my self installed Ikea kitchen for 8 years now, I still love it, best money for quality I spent, It was easy and straight forward to install.
Ikea cabinets are amazing, and some of the best boxes and hardware you can get for the money.
I have a custom cabinet kitching in my main kitchen and I did ikea in my basement wet bar, and so far the Ikea is standing up better. Sure, it doesn't get as much use, but it does get a lot of use. Obviously your mileage may vary.
@larryroyovitz7829 I used them in rentals and my personal homes.. If they damaged a door, I can grab a new one for $20 and know it will look like it did new. I have also hacked them into bathroom vanities and garage storage as well.
IMHO for the bathroom floor tile I would go with the plain grey as it is a weight room shower and does not need to be as dressy as what you would put in a bathroom in the house. It would show less dirt and you are going to be plenty dirty over the next 2 years building your house.
Paint the ceiling Robin egg blue On the porch, bees will not build a hive on a blue ceiling. guaranteed.
I love IKEA cabinets. I’m putting them in my dram home. I’ll spend money on other upgrades 🤙💪
Do the monochrome tile for flooring. No pattern
caulk tubes upside down in water for large jobs is an absolute legendary tip 👌
mixed stones like that make them less obvious when they are dirty. Where a pure white or solid color it's pretty obvious when ti's dirty.
My favorite part of the week is finishing work and finding a new studpack video.
Wow, 90K views in one day? The StudPack crew's killing it. Great job guys!
As much as I love the patterned tile and would use it for my own project, for your project I think the plain tile pairs better with the small tile
I am still thinking you guys need to get the building secured. When are garage doors happening ? Looking great. I think I would have painted the blocks for the light before attaching them, but that's just me.
As an Electrician for 20+ years I hate that style of bracket for those type of lights especially on vanities fixtures. It is something you should know ahead of time so you can install the correct type of light box at rough in . They are almost impossible to get tight with an old work box.
I was thinking that since they are outside how will they hold up against a very strong wind storm? Texas has some good ones. I imagine they will ripped right off that face with just two screws and a thin sheet of metal keeping them in place. Live and learn I suppose. We'll see in five years how it went. 8^)
You are all doing an amazing job. Every role in making these videos has to work simultaneously the entire time, especially the BTS to make a great video.
This entire series has produced videos that people not only want to watch but keep coming back for more. You all should be proud of your work.
Keep it simple. Simple tile
All your content is 100% on point but the custom deck gutter is next level. It's a tough problem to solve and you nailed it. Well done.
as an HVAC guy, My go to for spacers is 1/4 inch tubing, copper for high load situations and nylon for spacing out light switches and Plugs. Love watching you guys.
Love this. I'm redoing the columns on our front deck which overhangs our patio, and I was going to redeck it and build a gutter system like this. Was going to use EPDM, but this is way cheaper and doesn't need to be as tough as EPDM. Thanks!
28:38 "Five and a QUOTA by Five and QUOTA" that NOLA accent came out
Your deck drainage system is ingenious. You never fail to impress with your ability to solve various construction problems that are difficult to address.
It makes no sense to use expensive cedar on your back porch and then paint it. NONE! If you are not going to clear-coat it, then you would be FAR smarter to use a pre-painted composite product. Your cedar roof and trim will require constant maintenance and it will cost a fortune. Conversely, a white composite board (Home Depot sells them, or you can order them) requires ZERO maintenance, and the white color will not require painting for decades.
I respectfully disagree. I put rough cut cedar on the inside on my entry. I clear coated it with Sherwin Williams clear wood protector. Recoating every year or so is quick and easy. There is nothing like the look of natural wood.
@@sharpshooter3369 Yes, if you are not going to cover the beauty of the cedar wood, then yes it is worth adding the yearly maintenance. But that's not what Stud Pack is going to do.
The son in the show wants to use cedar trim and paint it white, which, to me, makes no sense at all. You can buy composite trim that has a white color and a wood finish and use it instead of cedar. This creates a trim and deck ceiling that will be maintenance free and it will look really good. No it won't look like real cedar wood that is painted white, but the white composite trim looks really good.
Composite trim and decking has come a long way, and it is very beautiful. If you are going to use a white finish, in my opinion a composite trim with a wood finish is the way to go.
@@franklong6269 I must have misunderstood. My apologies. If that is what they are doing, that’s a shame and a waste of beautiful cedar.
Just got done bandaiding a deck roof. I have never seen such flimsy corrugated plastic. Like always screwed to the joist from below open ended and opaque. Original builder decided not to run the firring strips to the end which caused a sag and a leak at the overlap. I like this pondliner idea semms much more fool proof and the wood is covered inside the gutter trapizoid so wasps should stay out. Now you gotta show me how to eliminate pine needles getting stuck in the decking cracks. We got a lot of pines out here on the coast of NC.
24:52 Doesn't matter the experience level. The piece between the fence and blade can go slightly out of square once cut off and grab the blade. You, standing behind the blade like you are not supposed to, will get a new much larger belly button. Plus, with your hand so close, your hand/arm is going into the blade when this happens.
So 3 things to learn here.
1) Any material between the blade and the fence should be longer than it is wide.
2) Never stand directly behind the blade when the blade is turning. Always stand to the side.
3) Always use a push block when working close to the blade. Preferably a wooden one that won't shatter into your face if it touches the blade.
If the more "busy" pattern tile looks good it'll have some function over form. Shower and bathroom areas get the water and moisture that'll be the catalyst for all the dirt to build up and make it look dirty all the time. My votes the "pattern" tile
I look forward to these videos so much. Paul is reaching legendary status. ❤
I don't know how well that pond liner will hold up compared to metal gutter pans, but it sure is cheaper. As an added bonus, it protects the top of the joists without spending extra on tape. My hypothesis is that this will work fine in the warm climates that don't get snow and ice. Hey, it might even work in the cold ones, but I wouldn't risk running the experiment.
You mentioned how to protect around garage. Have some rotten wood around my garage where meets the concrete. I looked but just can't find it in videos now that going back to look. Love the videos. Thank you!
Such a way underrated skill set. It's sad to see how trades, and I say trades with the utmost respect, are not of any interest to these days youngsters. I love to see guys and gals who take such pride like you do, Paul. Thanks for all you do to put content like this out, I can only imagine the work that goes into doing these vids.
The trades are going to be necessary to this generation because their lack of interest in this stuff means they won’t know how to do things and will need to hire it out.
My vote is for the homogeneous tile, both for aesthetics preferences and for practical reasons: I always find it a pain to get a nice pattern flowing between tiles with that random, marble-like pattern, and it kills my OCD. Also, great solution for the in-floor gutter!
I'm here for the garage door
us too!! 2 more weeks I think
Hey Stud pack ❤ Love to hear an update on the gutter system on the deck after first heavy rain fall, thanks for a great video💪
We put in large tile on the walls of our shower but it was recommended that we use small tile for the floor since it isn't as slippery as the large pieces. We have been in the house a 1/2 years and agree that the small tile isn't slippery. I like the outside flooring that has water proof built into it. I don't know how long your plastic will hold up.
If you want to get rid of the wrinkles in the pond liner, just blow hot air from a hair dryer as you cut it out.
My preference is the tile on the left. You need a busier palate.
Large tiles create their own set of problems! 😮
Tips and tricks are so helpful! Thank you!
love when you guys improvise !
Pour Water over the Tile, then pick the best one!!!
@ 30:00....you could've just drilled a smaller hole in the block then drilled 2 small holes for your backing plate. That way you wouldn't need spacers and your backing plate would be firmly supported all the way around. Since you only have a couple small wires coming out with your quick connects, a smaller hole won't be much of an issue for wiring access
Thanks!
Thanks 4x4 really appreciate it 💪🏼💪🏼
@@StudPack I appreciate your videos.
I like the tile with the movement the one on the left you are faceing them
I'd never even considered how to make an "in-deck" gutter. Thank you guys, I am old and live in a ranch style single story, so I will likely never have to use it, but I still enjoy learning stuff like this! Also, I am always happy to see another update on this project going on roughly 250-ish miles south of me (might be 270-ish, north side of DFW here, but I suspect you are on the north side of the metropolis I grew up in.)
Glad to see new video!! 🎉
The cedar is gonna look great! Seeya on next one! Been livin in my tiny home a month and 10 days. Still plenty to do, tryin to get plenty of cabinets and storage cabinets are so exspensive but finding short and wide ones for tiny house walls , normal cabinets for walls are problem , but getting there, finding good used ones saving money and since tiny house is unique just keep finding them 1 or 2 at a time! With the cost of everything so high I am almost to a safe pausing point, where I can save up money and take my time and find unquie things an ideas to make it more to my tastes. And maximizing every inch! I enjoy watching yall in the morning to get motivated and inspired or at night to relax and get ideas!
Thanks to all 3 of you , always entertaining. Seeya on next one! Realy think you should run your gutters to a buried tank and DIY you a system to use that rain water to water your grass when they restrict or ban usung city water to water your grass. Like they do every year in drought of summer! I think you will regret it this summer! Shh! Do notlet anyone know how you always have greenest yard! Lol!
Some great tips and tricks in this video. Thanks guys!
24:44 , famous last words has been spoken my friend. No 'expert' discards safety over efficiency.
But at least you explained what could go wrong with this (y).
And hey, what home-owner doesnt cut corners (....) here and there when it comes to safety ;)
As always, a great video. Like the deck drain system.
Love that deck drainage system, Brilliant!❤
Yes on the hot dipped Galv. That arsenic/chemicals in pressure treated wood wont let the regular nails last even 3seasons (outside)
I'd go with the tile with variation, rather than the plainer one. It both matches (due to the stone look) and contrasts (due to color tone) the shower wall tile... they should look great together.
Great stuff, thx guys!
That spacer hack is a great idea, thanks for sharing!
I feel like I"d have cut the hole in the square one size smaller so that the entire edge of the mounting bracket could bear on something solid. Also, would not a box extension have worked equally well?
Love the new tips I’m learning from you here. Will definitely use those next time. Love the progress on the house! ❤❤❤
Great video guys. Like the tile on the left.
Cool spacer creation. What a garage…..looking great!
if im storing sealant for a long time, I hot glue over the open end, works like a charm, can re-use it even after a year of being opened
I gotta say I kinda like the IKEA kitchens. I have one at home and have installed several at work (work as a carpenter in Sweden) and I actually like putting the cabinets and such together and I really like their system with the steel support that you screw to the wall and then hang on the cabinets one by one :)
And they are pretty durable too. My kitchen is from 2016 and isn't showing any wear EXCEPT the facia for the dishwasher. The hot steam takes a toll on the paint eventually.
great job guys !
27:13 my grandpa would say our roosters announced the change in season.
Love the episode and editing. Love the addition of the single frames, could probably do a few more in a montage fashion. Great job gentlemen.
Not a fan of the wire coil spacers. In hindsight, a smaller hole in the wood cover would allow you to screw it to that directly, but from where you were, the TV spacers along with a flat washer or three would be nice and solid. This won't be very strong, and if you try to tighten the screws nice and tight, they will fail. Liking the gutter idea.
I have seen other gutter systems but this one looks like the most cost effective one I've seen. great job.
I like the plain looking one...great video...thx!
Thank you for sharing!
