Thank you Sir, very much for the info here. I have 119 year old frame house in NYC, that i am currently living in, and i am worried daily, that it is going to collapse on me, and family. If you are in, or near NYC, i would ask you to assist me, in trying to get it "sured up", to strengthen the wood and structure. Or if you could give me any advice to get it done. Thank you again, and may the good Lord guide you.
Thanks, if it's soft wood just continue tightening. My makita is a DTW190 hopefully with an impact wrench it will squeeze the timbers together. Thanks for watching
It's not necessary to thread the three bolts on the rod before cutting. If you buy a thin cutting disk it'll do a far better cut which you can then thread the nut on each side. If you do have trouble a quick go with a file would do or there are special drill bits to do that. Great video!!
Unless I had to because of access I would never use an angle grinder without its disc guard. Putting a nut on first is a good tip though when cutting studs I always bevel the ends after cutting. A second grinder with a grinding disc is handy for this or you can cut all the studs first then change discs and grind. If you bevel the ends you don't leave sharp edges. Timber connectors are great.
Thanks for watching, I usually purchase them from the Screwfix here in the UK. They are called SABREFIX M12 TIMBER CONNECTOR GALVANISED DX275 50MM X 50MM
Yes, you can pick up double joist hangers from the builders yard, my application on this job was much easier as I only had to rest the joists on a structural wall
Thanks for your comment. But most definitely not, more so if its for a structural application. There are a number of technical reasons which I'm not very good at explaining, ie the clamping forces, the grippers that restrict movement, effectively doubling the strength etc. Thanks for watching.
@@michelod.i.y.5202 most definatley can... iv done it... no need to cut bolts up into small pieces... you can buy coach bolts at whatever size you require! ruclips.net/video/0StFVm7Or9w/видео.html
Bonkers bolt idea. What happens when you have to take off a bolt to push through the timber? Then you have to try and feed the bolt back on to your badly cut rod, the problem you were attempting to solve to start with. Have that one for free 😁
The entire point is to wind the nut (not a bolt) along the rod & over the badly cut end so that it realigns any misshapen thread as it's forced over them. You should then be able to get a nut onto this realigned thread no problem. This is a very old metal working trick my dad showed me donkeys ago, you can have that one for free.

GREAT CONTENT - JUST WHAT I NEEDED (not shouting)
Much appreciated thanks
Thanks👍🏼
I wondered if the gap would close with connectors. As u demo'd, it does. Thanks v much.
No problem the bolts will always pull them together 😊
Really helpful video - what model impact wrench is the Makita? Any tips when the toothed washers don't bite into the timber? Thanks

Much quicker to just pop a nut on to wind off than mess about with files & special drill bits though.

What is proper brand name for those awesome washers? I can only find ones spiked on one side.

That was funny
Can I use this method for two joists the new one is pulling away slightly from the old one the new and old joists are nailed together is that normal?
I would suggest if possible removing the existing nails first, then bolting. Thanks for watching
Hi, what hangers did you use please - are there ones fr a double joist ? Thanks

All I can say is put the bloody guard on the grinder Please.
