    For those attempting to do this type repair.
    Don't use a straight blade on your reciprocal tool. Use a radiused blade. In other words a semi circle. It won't jump and chatter. It will follow the line effortlessly.
    Suction clamps aren't necessary. Also as others have said DON'T cut cross handed like this. And by NO means put a nail through the floor. 🤦‍♂️
    Otherwise pretty good video. I'm sure it's helped lots of people.

      So why didn’t you share your 40 years of knowledge by showing us the correct way with your own video? Always some know it all with “don’t do this, don’t do that” crap. I personally found the suction puller worked like a charm far more than not having it. It’s by far the best way to control the new flooring if you’re a novice. Also the straight blade worked just fine without issues since it was all I had. Other than the agreement with the knife safety advice the guys video is on point.

    • @FixThisHouse
      @FixThisHouse  2 года назад +2

      Thank you! I personally would not use the activator on this situation unless you can it position it perfectly on the first try because the activator adhesion is instant. Just using the glue would give you some buffer time to position and tap the plank in place 👍🏽😊

    NIce video i mostly wanted to see what glue to use the Vinyl plank. Something you might consider , when i cut out the planking I just rip with circular saw about and inch from seams making a square, then , and you might have to use the dremel to complete the corners the center pops out , then take a drill with small bit and drill holes at a 45 degree to the corner on all four , it will just snap out. no need to watch a dancing dremel damage existing piece
