    Ha y'all seeing how you put the window above two outlets, you may want to replace them with the GFI. Just to be on the safe side, we al forget to shut windows 😂😂 big ❤️

    All the help & experience Mike has given to other ppl’s builds will be very handy. And the Framily will always be there to pay the favor back, like today. Now that the window’s in, you’ll be able to finish the insulation & get started on drywall. Then it’ll go fast

      @@driftingdreamers5 we all know how fast you & Uncle David can complete drywall in a pinch bc you did it in his tiny house in record time. I’ve renovated & restored 3 houses(restoring original work in our 1898 house is a LOT harder then new builds like yours). The BEST advice I can give you is to make a project list & give yourself a deadline for each project. It’ll keep you organized & motivated. If you REALLY want to challenge yourselves, write up the project list in order as things that need to be done, set a deadline for each task & share it with us. We’ll keep you motivated!!

    You put tape on the top and sides of the window and not on the bottom, so if somehow water gets in it can drain out the bottom.

    The reason the measurement had to be lowered, Gary measured 6 inches higher to begin with, from the top, right under 2x4. I was telling you, but you could not hear me, the window should have been 6 inches higher, it would have also matched 😂the other windows in the house, if you look new window sets lower.
    It still turned out great, window height for Your oldest son will be little low to look out!
    Alls well that ends well, was a small mistake, good that Gary & Mary came & helped you out. Love both of your channels, never miss one,
    I am 81, my husband & i built our home, so i have a little knowledge to how things are done!

  • @gailh9749
    @gailh9749 2 месяца назад +4

    No kidding, Mike, using that saws all made me really nervous. You aren’t supposed to seal the bottom of a window because if water gets behind it there will be a place for it to drain out. Every builder does that.

    • @jacquelinewells7575
      @jacquelinewells7575 2 месяца назад +1

      Good job guy’s but I was wondering the same thing. I’ve watched many windows being put in and everyone of them always tapes the frame before adding the window. That way the bottom is sealed but not over the window at the bottom itself so if any water gets in there it can drain out. I’ve never seen anyone cover the outside of a window like that.

    • @jeb3415
      @jeb3415 21 день назад

      @@jacquelinewells7575 I have seen the inside of the window frame sealed with a butyl tape (black) for waterproofing and then the outside is sealed with the foil like tape or the butyl tape- think about the edges of the window’s frame, it trim was put right over it, all kinds of water could leak behind.
