Hey guys - enjoyed this video, as I have all the previous ones! :) Wanted to say: don't worry about the bloopers, retakes, etc. All of that is what makes life real and I know we have ALL hit those "brain farts" when we're setting stuff up, laying it out, etc. Personally, I enjoy the unedited items, as it gives me a sense of how things work and go for you all. So... I would say that the CONTENT is FAR more important than working on editing! Save your effort in the editing room Jordan, and instead, let's see things as they go with MORE content! :)
You guys should definitely run some ethernet cables from the future location of your modem to any tv/computer location before closing these walls. Should also consider potential wireless access point location as well as security cameras and other connected devices. Wi-Fi is good, but nothing beats wires.
Second this, in fact if they want to have any security cameras installed once the build is done, most of them only use Ethernet (carries both data and power).
You guys could have easily "not mentioned" the angle difference between both sides. Props to u guys for doing that and allowing us to see all the problems u come across.
I so needed to see this because I was beating myself up for problems when I built the roof on my shed. Now I know that its expected to have some minor problems.
Soooooo true! Man if this was my house and I don’t know better I would have stressed out so much and hauled everything for days to get an answer 👏🏼👏🏼 so thank you!
Doing the eaves after finishing the building. Ensures the building envelope is air and insect sealed. Plus you save $$$ on closed cell spray foam, don’t have to fill eaves since there outside the building envelope.
@@pats9414 I box out eaves with zip, tape seems with zip tape fill ceiling and eaves with closed cell spray foam. $250 we’ll spent for a tighter home. Add make up air unit and work in the attic in the middle of summer at a cool 75 degrees. But after seeing this probably gonna switch methods.
@@duanebarnes3587 I’m saying what they did was a waste of time to save 1-2 bucks a year. The traditional way of doing it is fine. The problem is lack of attention to detail and not caring that creates the problems they’re trying to avoid. Filling the soffit with insulation is like insulating the space under a porch roof.
Hi Studpack crew. I have watched you guys since the very 1st vedio when the property was first bought can't wait to see the final product. I'm a big fan.
It's crazy to think that this isn't scripted! You guys are making up the explanations as you go. I'm sure there's more outtakes and bloopers because of this, but it feels way more authentic. It's like I'm at the construction site being taught live. Thanks for the content, it's so informative and I've used your tips and tricks on my own projects!
I love everyone of your videos! Not only is is a great watch, and informative, but it's father, son, and son in law. Truly an epic adventure. Hope I can do this one day with my own family. God bless you all. God bless!
Making RUclips videos takes more time than folks realize. If they were able to build without the cameras, they'd do quite well. And speed isn't everything. Quality is everything.
When climbing with that bad hip, a step together pattern works better than trying to alternate. Going up, the good hip goes first(the good goes to heaven) and going down, the bad hip goes first(the bad goes to…well, you know where the bad goes 😉).
You guys are therapy for me and my husband as we fix a number of things on our 1911 America Four Square. Your tip on number your rafter tails and spray paint are the type of tips we find useful. Love your attention to detail. TY!
Even with the extra work to seal up for air leakage I found it always easer, fast , stronger and safer to have the over hang built in to the trusses! But that’s me . Good video and quality work no mater what !!
As a young man... I loved the series PBS This Old House. I feel like this is the new edition: This New House. However, in this video, you answered a question I had in a previous comment about the overall design and finishing of the house and the BTS that goes into the work, research, and effort to come up with a build that will be pleasing to the eye and not look patchwork. A few comments: Paul, don't let the young guys raz ya, you are the star of the show, and also who needs a forklift when you have a Rad!
Some Notes- I wouldn't angle the soffit unless you're installing lights with a gimbal, which are more, typically. Otherwise the lights will just be aimed at the house vs. down to light the path for the user. May want to consider taping /wrapping over the edge of the fascia 2x6 because that's the area most likely to rot if water finds its way in. Better to do it now as a precautionary measure.
been doing sideing soffit and facia for 37 years. and just about every thing else you can do to a house about the same thing you guys do. and i myself hate wavey facia boards.but i do alot of old work sometimes you just have to deal with it great job guys i dont know how papa stud pack deals with that heat. yall be careful out there.
After working for a contractor for 8 years I moved to southern Maine and went to work in a truss factory that at the time was the largest one in the whole state, we made some massive truss systems over the 20 years I worked there. while doing carpenter jobs on the side. So for the house build, when I worked for the Truss factory in southern Maine we had numbered tags. When the builder put up the trusses all the tags went on one side in order that helped after the pinch roller making the difference very little on the end . We did some trusses with the overhangs built right into the trusses, some without, it was what ever the builder wanted.
Hi Team, I'm not a "comment guy" usually, but I must say I just finished watching your videos since the TEMPORARY bathroom renovation in the old house. I live in Europe, so we usually don't build wood-framed houses, but I learned much from you guys. Paul you're not only an artist while doing the job, but it feels like you love teaching!! It's been a long time I haven't enjoyed a "construction" channel that much (since the day I discovered the Perkins Brothers one). Just wanted to say thanks, I have my popcorn and my notebook ready for the next episodes, keep up the good work team!
thanks for keeping it real with the bloopers. it makes for a good chuckle and reminds the rest of us diyers that even our favorite studpack crew is human! keep up the great work guys!
Since it’s going to be covered by a soffit anyway, why not use Simpson rafter hangers to attach the overhang to the house? You could even use them on every other. Just thinking about gravity + gutter weight + time.
I watch/listen while at work. I can't always check the thumbs up but i do always like the videos. I only figured out a few weeks ago why i like y'all so much... y'all in Texas enjoyin' the same heat!
I wonder how that neighbor is going to feel, When there is a giant 3 story building, Hanging over their house with bright LED lights, Blasting in their bedroom when the are trying to sleep lol
Top notch stuff. I wish contractors in my area had as much attention to detail as you guys do. Maybe then I'd hire out some of my projects. Until then, DIY is the way.
Why did you just remove the new video? It was a cool way to film i like the normal setup but the new one was more like behind the scenes and was interesting. i noticed 10 minutes in i couldn't see the comments hit refresh and bam the video was gone
They even removed the community post explaining why they took it down. They said too many complaints but everything i saw on the explanation was positive. 🤷♂️
They need to stop pandering to people. People will always complain about something different at first. They should have just let it ride and then waited a while to get a balanced view before posting the next one. they didn't need to remove it 20 minutes after posting it@@absentstars474
@studpack yeah I was enjoying the new video style! I know how difficult it is to make video content and it was cool just to see y'all just focus on working as opposed to getting all the explanations 100% correct (seeing Paul's frustration when he messes up). I say keep more of the mistakes in! Nobody is perfect and it makes it more real when you just correct yourself on the fly. Please keep sharing your content!
Yep! Trusses are usually marked on one end for consistency. Live and learn. There will be so many things that you'll learn from the garage that you will apply to the house. Just be super SUPER careful on the ends of that scaffolding.
Great video. You can tell Paul is tired. Its definitely not an easy task to go up and down that scaffolding. Hope y'all get some rest. Keep doing what you're doing because we are happy to watch y'all do it.
I wish Paul had been my first journeyman when I was an apprentice! I had one of those "you will learn what they teach you in class" guys. My second Journeyman was a rock star... told me to forget what they taught at the apprentice center.... I am amazed I survived the apprenticeship! Thanks for the video! HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
I read a report years ago on the length of overhang versus foundation and siding issues from weather. 24 inches was the sweet spot for overhang protecting the house.
Matt Rissinger (I think he is who I saw say it) said that anything over a foot overhang (general code for most areas) needs to be engineered. Theirs is 20" so it'll be interesting to see if this is a problem.
@@zefallafez Probably depends on the area. If you have a snow load on the roof or hurricane prone, maybe. There is really nothing to engineer though, to me, anyway lol.
Great video...always learn something. Really looking forward to seeing the details of the low voltage panel. You're right...almost no details on RUclips.
We had a 60’ building 12’ 2x6 walls that we couldn’t get perfectly straight. The trusses had 10 1/2” tails for a structural fascia. We snapped a line 1 1/2” in on top plate. Then we used a marking jig to put 12” in mark on every truss and aligned those marks with the snap line.
Hey hey! It's been great being subbed all these years .... thanks again for the channel and hope you have had a perfect 2023 summer! Congrats on your growing success!!!
StudPack you are the best. I’m planning on building a garage next year and now have the blueprint. These are the very best how to videos I have ever watched. Better than Bob Villa, Steve Thomas and Kevin O’Connor. And almost better than Norm. You guys rock !!!
Great job as always fellas!! Paul just keep being real. Really looking forward to seeing this journey through with you guys. Again thank you all for what you do and just know that your channel has helped me more than you’ll ever know!! God Bless!
You guys should also run a internet fiber cable from the outside where you guys have planned the internet connection from your provider into your power closet and another one to your future house, cause you may have the option to use fiber from your provider and have a very clean and fast connection, 👍😁 also good luck with the rest of the build.
That’s gotta be the slowest way to cut tails…just throw them up, pull a string and cut. Fine tune the couple that cause a dip or bulge and you’ve got laser straight fascia. Also should have been done Prior to sheeting the roof, that way it’s tied into the roof by sheeting. That’s DEFINITELY going to sag over time with a distinguished line where it meets the roof line.
I was curious about why you were building without overhangs, thinking that you were going for the "salt box" look. I personally like a 20-24 inch wide overhanging eve on the building to keep the rain and sun off of the side walls. I thought that you could have had the truss designer put in the overhang on the sides and design a special truss for each end, which would have worked like a strong-back to stiffen the two end trusses. That's part of the advantage of the engineered truss system -- no more cutting birds beaks in each rafter to form the rafter tail for the roof system. The building end trusses would have also helped with the "wave" in the front-facing truss wall. That said, I really like how you roll and figure out solutions on the fly. And I love the tip about spray-painting one end of the trusses to get them unloaded and mounted in the same orientation as when they ship -- that's worth the trouble to avoid customizing every single rafter tail.
Studpack, The way you put these videos together is great . The music is not overbearing. The spoken words are clear easy to hear. A pleasant variety to the shots. Great job Jorden ! The interaction of you guys is heartwarming. Checking in often for the next video.
No matter how pro you guys get, you still show us your mistakes and retakes. Thank you. That whole vibe is why i've followed your channel. You guys deal with frustrating situations like champs and it's taught me so much.
Thanks! I have a suggestion. When you use the two pieces of Zip and a the temporary rafter tail you could fasten one piece of Zip to the temporary rafter and not have so many things to have to hold in place. My son and I are about to build two houses for our families. Gonna be a lot like what you guys are doing. Great job!! Terry
I always love seeing you guys going through this whole process as a family! Watching these becomes a great part of my week I look forward to. Makes me really want to make my own house with my family later in life.
We used a framing square against the side of our shed to measure out the cutoff amount on the front and back truss, used a level to go straight up from the mark to the top edge of the truss to cut, and then ran a string line down the length of the sidewall to mark all the trusses at once
One thing that I like about the stud pack build is that the roof line is simple. Coming from the UK to the US I noticed that most of the houses have multiple pitches that seem unnecessarily complicated. Keep It simple...
I have a Garagmahl of my own since 2004, my neighbor begrudgingly dubbed it as such as I was building it LOL. I thought it was big as a single floor 28X30. This is definitely the true Garagmal!!!!!! Nice work gents. Love all the comments and ideas that come along with each video.
This is the video I needed! I just built a shed by myself and even though I was so careful, the over hangs were off. Now I get it. I'm going to watch this video until it embeds in my brain because I need to fix some water damaged raftertails and roof on one side of my roof. I was dreading it but now I think I can do it.
A ladder jack system would be a life saver over that scaffolding in the future. Badger Ladder has some great pricing on the entire system. Would highly recommend as I’m currently renovating the entire exterior of my two story home.
Been following this build and many other projects for a few years all because I looked up how to build my own bed frame long ago… So happy to have found this channel. Love how smoothly the gang operates and including the bloopers/occasional mistakes really solidifies your professionalism. Looking forward to seeing the rest of this and the house. Keep up the great work fellas!
Thank you Jordan! Thank you for the hours of dedication and hard work you spend creating these videos for us viewers. Your video production skills are truly amazing. Also, thank you and your wonderful family for sharing your skills with us. God Bless!
Absolutely love your channel! I never thought that I would be interested in how to build an amazing garage but I can't wait for you to post the next video. I was hooked after watching your backsplash video... learned a lot from that one and was successful with my first tiling job that to you guys.
This video is filled with so many good tips! I also love that if heaven forbid you get a nasty storm the overhangs can be pulled away by the wind and the roof may be safe!
Im glad you guys figured out the chalk line thing, even if it was a bit late. The whole time I was thinking what a pain it must be to line up on the bottom and on the inside of the angle like that
Thank you all for the transparency! I love all your videos, very easy to follow and very encouraging. I am working on a small project that feels like it is taking me forever but these videos give me so much knowledge. Awesome job, I loved the bloppers too LOL.
Make sure you run some ethernet drops to your four corners at the very least in case you decide you want cameras installed. I'd personally run two to each corner so you have the ability to install two cameras or the ability to have a spare drop for the future.
I absolutely love the channel! I've been following along for a long time and I can't believe how fast you guys put this up! Amazing job. If I had the means to do it, I would bestow upon you the gift of a scissor lift! I can only imagine how difficult that scaffolding is to deal with. Anyway, love the show and keep up the good work. Stud Pack for life!
Love this series. Still gives me the willies when you are up so high on the scaffolding. Why I never do roof work! Also your Texas accents are coming along nicely!
Fellas. Thanks for sharing so much quality content, frustrations, challenges, team spirit and so much of yourselves. The generosity is compelling and quite the example. P&L
Once again, I'm in awe of the tricks you have for making sure everything is perfectly measured and aligned. The string-and-spray trick and numbering the rafter tails is one I'll be filing away!

That is about two thirds of what makes that difference in Plumbers too!

That’s gotta be the slowest way to cut tails…just throw them up, pull a string and cut. Fine tune the couple that cause a dip or bulge and you’ve got laser straight fascia. Also should have been done Prior to sheeting the roof, that way it’s tied into the roof by sheeting. That’s DEFINITELY going to sag over time with a distinguished line where it meets the roof line.
Love the bloopers. Everyone does takes for a reason. Gotta get another brother to help out more
I was curious about why you were building without overhangs, thinking that you were going for the "salt box" look. I personally like a 20-24 inch wide overhanging eve on the building to keep the rain and sun off of the side walls. I thought that you could have had the truss designer put in the overhang on the sides and design a special truss for each end, which would have worked like a strong-back to stiffen the two end trusses. That's part of the advantage of the engineered truss system -- no more cutting birds beaks in each rafter to form the rafter tail for the roof system. The building end trusses would have also helped with the "wave" in the front-facing truss wall. That said, I really like how you roll and figure out solutions on the fly. And I love the tip about spray-painting one end of the trusses to get them unloaded and mounted in the same orientation as when they ship -- that's worth the trouble to avoid customizing every single rafter tail.
Studpack, The way you put these videos together is great . The music is not overbearing. The spoken words are clear easy to hear. A pleasant variety to the shots. Great job Jorden ! The interaction of you guys is heartwarming. Checking in often for the next video.
No matter how pro you guys get, you still show us your mistakes and retakes. Thank you. That whole vibe is why i've followed your channel. You guys deal with frustrating situations like champs and it's taught me so much.
Awesome job fellas. Enjoying the journey. Can’t wait to see more.
Cool, a re-up with a proper close. You guys rock, love your videos!
Great to see you guys again. You're smashing that fascia. Looks fantastic. Looking forward the next time. Thanks for sharing.
Enjoyed both videos this week !
Thanks! I have a suggestion. When you use the two pieces of Zip and a the temporary rafter tail you could fasten one piece of Zip to the temporary rafter and not have so many things to have to hold in place. My son and I are about to build two houses for our families. Gonna be a lot like what you guys are doing. Great job!!
Terry
Great stuff, guys! I’m glad the weather turned for the better on the second day!
I always love seeing you guys going through this whole process as a family! Watching these becomes a great part of my week I look forward to. Makes me really want to make my own house with my family later in life.
Glad to see the full video is up!
We used a framing square against the side of our shed to measure out the cutoff amount on the front and back truss, used a level to go straight up from the mark to the top edge of the truss to cut, and then ran a string line down the length of the sidewall to mark all the trusses at once
One thing that I like about the stud pack build is that the roof line is simple. Coming from the UK to the US I noticed that most of the houses have multiple pitches that seem unnecessarily complicated. Keep It simple...
Keep up the great work and channel guys! really look forward to every episode!
Every detail on this garage build is incredible!
This is my kind of build. You do the work and I have fun watching. You guys are having fun too, great memories in progress
I have a Garagmahl of my own since 2004, my neighbor begrudgingly dubbed it as such as I was building it LOL. I thought it was big as a single floor 28X30. This is definitely the true Garagmal!!!!!! Nice work gents. Love all the comments and ideas that come along with each video.
This is the video I needed! I just built a shed by myself and even though I was so careful, the over hangs were off. Now I get it. I'm going to watch this video until it embeds in my brain because I need to fix some water damaged raftertails and roof on one side of my roof. I was dreading it but now I think I can do it.
I really enjoy the content and the personalities you guys bring! Excellent work as usual
Its good to see the solutions to the problems. Great videos.
No matter the content the positive attitude you guys have is refreah.
A ladder jack system would be a life saver over that scaffolding in the future. Badger Ladder has some great pricing on the entire system. Would highly recommend as I’m currently renovating the entire exterior of my two story home.
Interesting about the trusses. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome that your viewers are pitching in with such helpful tips. Homebuilding has so many variables!!!!
Been following this build and many other projects for a few years all because I looked up how to build my own bed frame long ago… So happy to have found this channel. Love how smoothly the gang operates and including the bloopers/occasional mistakes really solidifies your professionalism. Looking forward to seeing the rest of this and the house. Keep up the great work fellas!
Thank you Jordan! Thank you for the hours of dedication and hard work you spend creating these videos for us viewers. Your video production skills are truly amazing. Also, thank you and your wonderful family for sharing your skills with us. God Bless!
Absolutely love your channel! I never thought that I would be interested in how to build an amazing garage but I can't wait for you to post the next video. I was hooked after watching your backsplash video... learned a lot from that one and was successful with my first tiling job that to you guys.
i've really loved watching this process. the patience and the methodical process is great inspiration for just about anything!
This video is filled with so many good tips! I also love that if heaven forbid you get a nasty storm the overhangs can be pulled away by the wind and the roof may be safe!
Well done men. Thank you for educating us.
You guys are awesome.
I love how casual and light-hearted you guys are, plus I learned so much. Keep the videos coming! 🙌🏾💙🛠
Im glad you guys figured out the chalk line thing, even if it was a bit late. The whole time I was thinking what a pain it must be to line up on the bottom and on the inside of the angle like that
I like your clever workarounds, good explanations
Thank you all for the transparency! I love all your videos, very easy to follow and very encouraging. I am working on a small project that feels like it is taking me forever but these videos give me so much knowledge. Awesome job, I loved the bloppers too LOL.
Love the videos, guys! And especially enjoyed the bloopers at the end. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
I really appreciate you explaining everything. Gives me the hope that maybe I can do it myself as well some day.
I almost don't want to watch for a while just so i can binge watch! hahaha. You guys are building the ultimate dream house
Make sure you run some ethernet drops to your four corners at the very least in case you decide you want cameras installed. I'd personally run two to each corner so you have the ability to install two cameras or the ability to have a spare drop for the future.
Love your Channel. Keep up the good work guys!
Excellent timing for me! Lets go!!!!
Super good info. I like the line marking tip and the truss marking idea.
Love that tip with the spray paint and the chalk line. Also enjoy all your videos. Look forward to more 👍 😎
I absolutely love the channel! I've been following along for a long time and I can't believe how fast you guys put this up! Amazing job. If I had the means to do it, I would bestow upon you the gift of a scissor lift! I can only imagine how difficult that scaffolding is to deal with. Anyway, love the show and keep up the good work. Stud Pack for life!
Glad y'all did this video, gave me some new ideas on how to do overhang.
Love this series. Still gives me the willies when you are up so high on the scaffolding. Why I never do roof work! Also your Texas accents are coming along nicely!
Fellas. Thanks for sharing so much quality content, frustrations, challenges, team spirit and so much of yourselves. The generosity is compelling and quite the example. P&L
Excellent job boys!
Once again, I'm in awe of the tricks you have for making sure everything is perfectly measured and aligned. The string-and-spray trick and numbering the rafter tails is one I'll be filing away!
