@@shrugger1 I redid all 4 bathrooms and kitchen back splash off your one video with the white subway tiles. The kitchen was tricky and first on my list to do. Once I nailed down your method of doing it, the first bathroom was a breeze. # 2,3 and 4 went even quicker and my wife is super pleased and happy.
Look at Stud Pack too. They are an American father & son contractor/videographer. They show all the mistakes too, and how to fix them before moving on. Both channels have given much so much more understanding of how to build, design, and improve my home. ❤️
Since showing my wife your channel, my honey do list is a mile long. Since all your videos are thorough and laid out well, it's helped wonders but she is also now able to give way more constructive criticism!
I've decided this is beyond my skill level--but I do appreciate watching a DIY video that actually offers good, clear instructions--which you've done here----thank you!
I like that...."start from the mid point always because if measurements are off it will look stupid! "Got your message Jeff! Also, I had no idea there was a stop on the extensions of the miter saw stand! Cool! More hacks you keep showing us that one just wouldn't know about if someone like you didn't take the time and care to let us know. Great project as well. Cheers Meg
Thanks so much for all your videos! I lost my dad last year and it’s great seeing you do a personal touch in your daughters new house! I wish we had my dad with us to help us with these personal touches in our soon to be new home!
Your the best man. I'm about to close on my new house and my wife has a list of things ten miles long for me to do. Things like this as well as more advanced things like finishing the basement. I have no Idea what I'm doing but your videos make me feel like I can do anything. So again thank you. Wish me luck.
Truly so glad I found this channel with Jeff. I really enjoy everything he does and he appears to be so down to earth and gives it to you straight showing step by step the info you need to complete your projects. Thank you so much Jeff for all of your hard work and your videos.. I mean that. You have helped me so much with my home renovations.
I also want to let you know we had a room we were attempting to install crown molding in. I was having a hard time getting it to meet up evenly on the ninetys because the ceiling and wall were wavy. It was just impossible so I ordered the foam crown molding you recommended on a previous video. The foam crown is amazing! It's gives enough to follow any imperfections were the ceiling meets the wall . It came out almost perfect! Once I painted it I dare anybody to tell a difference between foam and actual wood crown molding! Thanks!
If you don’t have a saw stop like this, you can screw a length of scrap board to the saws fence to extend the fence along and then nail a block where your desired stop block needs to be. When doing a range of different lengths, cut the longest lengths first and then you don’t need to knock the old stop blocks off as the new ones will move along the fence closer to the saw blade.
I just recently bought my very first laser after 20 years of being in remodel work, I finally bought myself one and I freaking love it. I use it on everything lol.
Jeff, thank you so much for mentioning that MDF needs to be acclimated. My husband was considering MDF for casing the windows, he was hesitant because it may shrink. Now we know how to do it properly. 😊 I just turned on this video out of curiosity and learned a very useful piece of information. Perfect! You saved us!
I've seen videos of this on Pinterest and I always had a million questions! Thank you! I don't wanna ruin my house by doing crappy diys, this actually explains things well!!!
This is Julie A. I’ve wanted to do a project like this for a while. I’m not a carpenter and couldn’t wrap my head around where to start… Thanks for making the measurements make sense!!! I just completed it and it looks amazing! Thanks for the video!
Watched a video of your for legitimate advise for a small project, now I am addicted and just watch for fun you are that entertaining and engaging I watch for entertainment now, thank you!
I am still a bit unclear about how to do the math. You kinda went through it quickly, but that is what rewind is for. The tips are so helpful, do the math first, preset the saw, and use a board as a template is great. Thanks Jeff!
I want to do board & batten in my living room, so this was very empowering! Math's not my thing, so I will re-watch to see how you figured out the number of boxes. Thanks for sharing this. I bet your daughter loves it.
Much love from the UK Jeff. Love this project. Perfect timing was looking to do this myself. Your Chanel is wonderful no nonsense, fear free and easy to understand. By the time I’ve finished my bedroom will look a million dollars. I owe you a beer Jeff thank you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Did I say thank you 😂? My daughter wanted to do exactly this on one wall. I looked for a video to make sure I'd be doing it right. The 1x6 "template" was a dream come true. She questioned using it but I explained to her how it's better than leveling them one by one, plus they're all at the exact same height. Oddly enough, I bought a DeWalt laser level and we tended to use a regular level more than the laser level. We wondered is the 1x6 was true n width all the way down the board and maybe that's why it was off. Love the channel. Thanks again.
An even simpler and quicker method is to build all your frames on the ground once their cut with ca glue (Instantbond) which bonds in 3 seconds. Then install the whole frame with the spacer guides.
So much to learn . I enjoy watching you plan and execute (stay on task ) . A lot of your twiners, and your cuts in the way you do things by yourself are really helpful to me because I generally do it by myself loving it.
Thanks. He needed this. My husband is a contractor and loves it when I play your videos while he's sleeping. 🤭🤭🤭 Seriously, we both enjoy your videos and if one is playing on the television when he wakes up, the task is already on the honey do list. I'm interested in that isolating tool but the link posted isn't working.
That looks incredible...Imma sucker for elaborate millwork and completely against scandi decor 🤣 I'd do all the walls with same panels and same color including crown molding and baseboard. That's what I've been planning since Farrow and Ball came out with the color Preference Red.
visual learners are the luckiest people on earth i could not grasp anything especially all the calculations and stuff am surprised everyone in the comments finds very easy
Do you suggest putting up a back board to get a flat wall opposed to sanding it ,just to get rid of he orange peel texture. Thank you ,loved the video, only one I've that shows A-Z!!
Great channel, nice guy, great work! The jig is slick! Should've added crown moldings too! I can see the paint lap marks inside the boxes, that looks terrible 😳
The paint is really fresh, once it is completely dried and cured, you shouldn't see those marks. It is always a personal choice, but many contractors will not use crown molding on 8 foot ceiling, because it can make the room look squat.
Great vid as always! I have Questions! If you have time… 1- I couldn’t tell if wall was textured - mine has typical bldr orange peel (I think that’s what it’s called) and I have heard it’s best to install a 1/8” hardboard (backer board?) panel first to cover it, so it looks smooth. Do u agree, or just paint it well? 2- curious if it would it look better w pine boards rather than mdf? 3- is it better to use the spackle on trim or wood filler? I see u used spackle for both the wall and trim, checking on that. I am starting in a couple weeks so thanks for your help w my last remaining doubts about best way to do it! Love your channel. Ashlynn
We did this in our dinning room. It was super inexpensive and it's amazing how much it takes a boring ,normal wall into something that looks regal and expensive!
Level 2 ...... Why do I feel so intimidated? Oh yeah I remember.... When my hubby and I were mitering the trim for our bathroom....we nearly got divorced. We ruined three $25 strips. But I am addicted to DIY.
Glossy, semi-gloss, sometimes even satin or eggshell can look cold, heavy, and show all defects. The darker the paint color is, (as in this video), the more this is true. I don't want walls that look like a restroom at the local gas station :) Thus, I like flat paint on walls, it looks so clean and perfect, it hides defects. Light dirt can be washed off of flat paint if it is a good quality paint. Besides, it's so easy to just be careful not to get dirty hands on them. Kitchens may require satin, semi-gloss, maybe even gloss because of air-born grease, smoke, and everything that sticks to it. The glossier it is, the easier it is to to wash off dirt, grime, smoke and grease, I'm certainly not denying that fact. But, a good exhaust over the stove (exhausted to the outside) will eliminate much of this issue. I'd rather paint every 6 years or so than look at glossy paint, besides by the time it needs to be re-painted you will probably have grown irritated by the same color.

LMAO...love it.
Your welcome ...I think. Cheers!
She could always... you know... just do it herself if she’s so knowledgeable.
It's the constructive criticism that does it everytime.
I'm very much interested but I'm already old!and I don't have All your tools!!
I've decided this is beyond my skill level--but I do appreciate watching a DIY video that actually offers good, clear instructions--which you've done here----thank you!

I was in your position 1 year ago. You got all the info you need here! GL
Oh and the most important tip for you is: If you think a project will take 2 weeks, tell your wife it's gonna take 6. Rule of 3!

He said, “great time for a basket and a couple of rolled up towels” 😂😂😂 love it.
Jeff is the best on RUclips! Great, to the point videos that are well shot. Thanks Jeff!
The difference your videos have made in our entire home and life - design, quality and relationship - is unmeasurable !
Cheers Caroline!
using the template makes huge sense. I did the same job last year and I wish I used the template, it would have made the job far less complex
“You can fill a dent, you can’t patch a bump.” So many precious nuggets, big and small.
I just recently bought my very first laser after 20 years of being in remodel work, I finally bought myself one and I freaking love it. I use it on everything lol.

I need you, actually, someone with your knowledge, in my life. Thank you so much for creating these videos!

Saving this video for when I get yo work on this project. Another fantastic one!
cheers!
you always post the best videos with best content ! Makes me feel like I can do all these things myself
Appreciate it. Cheers
Man I wish I had this video before I painted my house! The basement will be different after watching this! Thank you yet again!
Cheers you got this!
I absolutely love how simply you share some secret of the trade that save a tons of time and improve the quality of the job! Another great video
Came out excellent. Wife's got an accent wall in mind for the Master. Just need to decide on the style
Best video instruction that I have seen! I appreciate your heart of a teacher.
I love to learn to create this kind of things but I have never done it. I love how you explain measurements and cuts.
No one does it better than you. You are good at explaining it too.
I am still a bit unclear about how to do the math. You kinda went through it quickly, but that is what rewind is for. The tips are so helpful, do the math first, preset the saw, and use a board as a template is great. Thanks Jeff!
You got this Frank. Cheers!

Ask This Old House should have this guy as a guest on their show. Would be fun to see them both together.
Wow absolutely loved the video. Always thought of doing this thanks man. You should come south the border again one day when things get better.
You had a great tip, "cheater blocks" are awesome! I use them all the time for drawer slides.
I just love how home renos displays and reveals simple easy to use techniques
Great great great instructional video on a task that is needed in every home by everyone. Thanks so much.

Wow, stunning and elegant! Love love the color! I need someone like you in my life!!
this is great....i would love to see more videos on how to execute/install other paneling designs, or coffered ceilings / beams
More to come!
So beautiful! That panelling and paint result looks really classy ~ it elevates the whole look of the room to something very special.
Yes Jeff, it takes patience to do a really good job to be proud of so a template is definitely a must.💯👍🇨🇦
An even simpler and quicker method is to build all your frames on the ground once their cut with ca glue (Instantbond) which bonds in 3 seconds. Then install the whole frame with the spacer guides.
This is exactly what I'm going to do in my home bar project

I’ve been in construction my whole life, you did an excellent job, very impressive, cool color too :)
Great video . The explanation of each step is fantastic. The wife has a few wall projects for me . This really helps a lot . Great channel
First love ❤ the color. I wish I had a wall to do that to it beautiful and simple and low cost. Only trim
I love that you can see the paint roller lines looks great haha
not once it is dry. Cheers!
So true about the crappy builder paint you get. I'm 1 year in and have yet to paint.
That's awesome Mr Reno Ninja Sir. Shout out to Mad Max with the great camera work as usual.
Thank you, for sharing your knowledge with all of us. You really do tell us all the little details that others don't.
I am so in love, I am going to do this in every room. You are amazing 🙂👍💕💕💕💕💕

You have to love the old measure 6 times cut 8 technique.

Yep on the template. Like you said when you look close.......
very informative and I love your videos
Someone get this man a whiteboard! Lol
Looks great, my friends!
My wife saw this, thanks Jeff! Guess what I'm doing this summer holiday. 😩
Have fun! Hopefully leaves you enough time to do a little fishing. Cheers!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I’ll knock this out of the park! No problem, with time to hit the golf course! I appreciate your videos.
Do you recommend using caulk on the edge of the trim to create a better look?
I fell in love with your program your one of best diy teaching ive seen on you tube and thanks
Just wanted to let you know that you were made for this the way you explain etc very good job keep up the good work all the best 😁 🤗
visual learners are the luckiest people on earth i could not grasp anything especially all the calculations and stuff am surprised everyone in the comments finds very easy
You're killing me Smalls
Honestly laughed so hard at the basket and a couple blankets joke 😂😂
Awesome trick with the jig. Love picture boxes but not a fan of unicolor look, like the trim being white
Thanks for the information and the sense of humor!
Thank you for explaining the mathematics 👍
Good job....though it will look even better if you can just put an arch in the middle and/or paint slightly different color inside the squares. 👍👏👈
EXCELLENT VIDEO! Thanks
Damn that is really sweet looking after. Great job!
Do you suggest putting up a back board to get a flat wall opposed to sanding it ,just to get rid of he orange peel texture. Thank you ,loved the video, only one I've that shows A-Z!!
This is great. My only issue is I do not have all those tools.
I painted a bdrm this color on 3 walls and one wall was a lighter aqua color. looks nice.
Gorgeous! What a quality project from the techniques to the paint, to the contractor!😉
Amazing video Jeff! Thanks so much for making this. I'll be doing something very similar above our stairs and learned a lot of great tips. Cheers!

We did this in our dinning room. It was super inexpensive and it's amazing how much it takes a boring ,normal wall into something that looks regal and expensive!
Level 2 ...... Why do I feel so intimidated?
Oh yeah I remember.... When my hubby and I were mitering the trim for our bathroom....we nearly got divorced. We ruined three $25 strips.
But I am addicted to DIY.
Nice video Jeff.
