Tim, something that might prove useful or interesting to viewers is show and explain what your long term plan is. Knocking a hole in a wall for a door is a good video and useful info but you mentioned new porch and raising the floor, Would be really nice to see all around and point out what the other door is and how you expect the new layout to work. Doesn't stop the video being interesting but the extra info will help people understand your thought train. When is the new workshop starting? Still looking for help and assistance?
Exciting! I've always wanted to have a go on one of those saws lol. Stuffed if I can work out what anyone has against the music. Better than listening to the saw. Keep it I reckon. One day people will work out it's your channel and you can put what you want on it.
Just a tip... Go in to the thicker pieces in two angled cuts to take out a wedge pointing inwards to the wall first then you can often get in again. Or just SDS out the mortar to remove the whole piece. you can fill in again once the frame is in place.
My basement is stone and the basement door farme moves and shifts everytime I open the door. I would normally put screws in but I can't screw into stone. So how do I secure it?
Are you saving the stone for future use/repairs around the house? I did a deck+addition to a 1940’s built house here in Canada, and I had oodles of fun cutting through ancient concrete stucco. I went through $20 worth of abrasives discs for my grinder before I bought one diamond coated blade for $30.oo that cut more than 10x what the expired discs did, and is still in fine cutting form. Just to get access to the floor and ceiling joists I ended up making 4 40’ cuts across the whole side of the house. Luckily, I had a helper to blow the dust away from me and the grinder while working, and the nearest neighbors were a half-mile away. So. Much. Dust. And of course, at the time of construction, bottle-dash was all the rage, so sharp bits of glass made handling the rubble a bit delicate.
Next time set up a drip for the dust, a 2 milimeter hose should do the trick, a hose from capilary watering will be sufficient, and a two litre can with the hose attached to the lid should be easy enough to set up.
Hi Tim, where do you get your energy from? Im Tony who moved to Poland to renovate an old cottage, approx 120 years old nothing is exact here, been here since 2016. I really enjoyed you video on the visit to Pat in Devon converting a barn. If the opportunity comes along your more than welcome to visit our home/work site, bring the family. methods and standards are very different here but like yourself I like to do my research. Have had to learn all over again, no mains water or sewerage system due to this being a small village in the foothills of the Sudety mountains. If you would like any photos or would be interested in any of the methods/systems here just let me know. Your more than welcome. Please keep up the fantastic work. Stay safe and keep doing it yourself.
Thanx for vid! Thot it would be a daunting task, but looks manageable now. Interesting would be if/when the wall is load-bearing ;-). Buying a trad. cottage in Ireland and want to knock a door thru one of the walls :-0.
Tim made a video about top tools of use - it was way up there :) i've been trying to justify one for myself, but havent need to destroy anything big enough yet :)

Ahhhh, the floorboard lifter is still in use... It’s like seeing an old friend!
You my brother are an inspiration... All this hard work for the love of your family. Lots of love and respect
I love those pipe cutters, I’ve used mine so much, in tight spaces they’re brilliant!
I don't think there's anything you won't tackle, total respect to you Tim. Love your videos 👍

cool project, tim! it's gonna be fun to watch how it turns out!
Interesting video. Could you show a sketch of where the new door is coming, where the door is that you will block up, etc.? Thank you.
Another cracking video as ever Tim, thanks for sharing they are all very interesting to see
Great video!! You can do anything!
Nice work! You are powering along quite well! Interesting to watch!
Thank you for your video, how did you find cutting those stone with the machine? Which machine do you recommend please?
Thank you

That sure is a ton of work brother
You Ned a chain stone sure my friend. Like a little motorbike in the house!
Your neighbors must love you! Not an enviable job I must say, but a job well done nevertheless.

Nice, but when u say restoration couple, you mean restoration tim, as you do all the work 😉😉😉

I need someone to make a door in one of my limestone walls, any suggestions?
Master of DIY ;-)

what's the noise blocking headphones you have? Is it good? Please tell me where to get it. Thank you.
Apparently, the Swiss Army is ditching their knives and re-equipping with a floorboard lifter!
😂 Not much it can’t do. Not tried opening a beer with it though!
How do I get in contact with you to ask your expertise in adding a doorway into a limestone schoolhouse I’m remodeling.
That's a useful prise tool.
Pallet breaker.

Rodger Quinn many a pallet has defeated my usual prise bar!
You can get a concrete cutting chainsaw would have done that job in one
Was the diamond blade yours
Just started this, on a 1m thick granite wall :(
Made a new door opening to the living room at my brother's house using one of these saws. Very messy indeed!
Cable tie the garden hose over the top of the cutting blade
You could have benefitted from a concrete chainsaw there. They're rentable as well, but often hard to find.
and what's the best mask for construction workers? I need a father's day present for my dad. Thank you!
I use JSP. The headphones are isotunes and you can use our link and discount from any of the more recent videos in the descriptions. 👍
Another solid video but I prefer the (reduced) noise of the tools. Ditch that electronic junk .. ATB Marc - Belgium
Don’t you have to put a lintel in first to hold the wall up
Yes but nothing above here, not even a wall plate or roof at this point.
Is there anything you can’t do Tim? 😂😂
Great channel, thank you so much for keeping us informed, but please..........lose the music ........it's a shocker and you intro music was always so nice
12:27 hope you've still got that face mask
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 a sensible sized saw 😂😂😂😂 whats size saw would you say is not very sensible 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Love the vids mate great approach to it. I had visions of someone offering you a saw that was a meter in diameter and you saying well thats not a sensible sized saw is it 😂😂😂😂😂
Just when I think there must be something he can't do. How silly am i! 😂 wow
Brilliant channel, you know I love your work and the heart behind it all. But 😂😂😂😂😂 can we please consider losing the music? Keep in DIYing 🏃💪💪💪
Your lungs are worth more than any house, please wear a mask when using a consaw
