    I work in the technology industry where we teach engineers that collaboration is the fastest possible way to learn and improve. You have just provided a "real world" example of learning through collaboration and the power of online communities. Hats off to you and John for being willing to experiment, learn, and share your learning with the community you have built. I'm in the middle of a DIY wainscot project that was inspired by your wainscot series. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills! When we are on the other side of this pandemic, would love for you and John to come out here to McKinney and see what was accomplished watching your videos. We can grab some Hutchins BBQ to make the trip worth your while. Keep it up! You rock! And I would buy a hoodie.

    Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. I'm a homeowner and I've been watching all your videos. I've just finished two projects - new dining room flooring and trim, and a 'tiny house' or pandemic office. All the finish techniques I've learned from you - especially using pocket holes and/or CA glue to join window trim and baseboards into seamless pieces before nailing into place. Using DAP DryDex to fill nail holes and to help in making long baseboards seamless also works great!

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You have helped me transform my house into something of beauty with trim. I started with your video where you trimmed out a drywall open doorway. You built it partly outside and installed it in the opening. I can do that and I did. I ended up doing 4 door openings. I get a lot of comments on the chamfer on the stiles that end 6 inches from the top and bottom. That small detail I copied from you. You get the credit for giving me the ideas and steps. Because of your videos and your instruction. I split my living/dinning room with trim. I did wainscoting in the dining room area. I ended the wainscoting with columns. On the living room side of the columns I put chair rail. Of course it goes without saying that every room has 5 inch crown molding. In the hall walkway I put up crown molding 6 inches below the ceiling. I lined inside the crown with LED lights that project up and out of the crown for a stunning effect. Not bad for a desk jockey. Keep up the great videos, I’m always learning.

    My respect brother. So many guy's now a days want to act like they know everything and definitely don't want to admit when they are wrong. And you weren't wrong..there is many ways to skin a cat but as a devoted fan's we should be offering advice to you and anyone else that's needs it. You got the other ceiling done and after watching hundreds of your videos I'm sure it's gonna be gorgeous after it's painted. But by blinding nailing you are gonna end up with the same finished look when its all said and done and save a boatload of time from skipping filling and sanding holes. And the beautiful part about the content you provide us with we all get to pickup after tips and tricks from each other. Just like you said you have learned some cool things along the way. I been doing trim work for probably 25+ yrs now but I would never be naive to think my way is the best way and I don't care how anyone else does it. And if someone is trying to offer advice it is always worth a listen..I don't care if the guy been on the job for 1 day or 40yrs. I always tell the younger guys coming up to speak their minds. For 1 it gets their wheels turning to help them fully understand what's happening, why it's happening, how to correct it if they run into problems and they might see something that I been flying by for years. Sorry for the long comment but just wanted everyone know it's ok to slow down and listen bc you never know how fast it can speed you up. Thank you again for all the work you put into your channel and thank you for letting me tag along. God bless you guy's and your families and can't wait to see what's next.

    I recommend you try using a laser measuring tool instead of the tape in situations like this. They are accurate to a 1/16th of an inch which is within tolerances when your measuring wall to wall. It is also much easier than holding a tape upside down above your head and it’s easier and faster when you’re working alone. Also very useful on baseboards when coping.

    I just picked up Milwaukee’s 1/4 cordless stapler to put up some exterior B&B and I was very impressed with the holding power of the fasteners (into cedar no less). I’m going to use this on my next T&G project. Might be an even better solution than what you just used.

      We always blind nail install t&g with 1/4” stapler. Best holding power for sure.

      I have the older blue one and I never trust what it shows. I've tested it in a spot where I know, without a doubt, there is a stud and it seems to be at least 1/2 a width off. So, about 3/4". I've been using it to locate metal studs and it doesn't seem to like that idea. Is the newer yellow one better?

      Vic Terraglia I have issues with mine every once in awhile where it’ll show like 6 leds’s wide of something, but they bounce around and aren’t showing a solid location.
      So I’ll just start over and it’s dead on. I’ve never missed a stud marking on the center of the 3 shown.

A flooring hammer is nice but ever since I bought a $10 2 1/2 lbs dead blow hammer from Harbor freight maybe 15 years ago and started using it for flooring and T&G Iv never gone back it has plenty of weight to set your board and “most” hits won’t Damage the wood.

    I just got done installing 7 1/2" wide (8' long) prefinished Pine T&G on a vaulted ceiling just like this. The builder wanted it as tight as possible, as there would be no caulking touch-up. We glued every piece (liquid nails) and blind nailed it with an 18 Ga. Most of the boards weren't perfectly straight, and needed a lot of pressured to get the T&G tight, 7 1/2" doesn't bend easily. When we needed to really crank on a board, we screwed a 3/4" thick block to the truss, just above the tongue, then drove shims (split in half lengthwise) until it was tight. Then, used a T-10 finish screw, instead of the 18 Ga nail, and blind screwed it. We had to this on 80% of the boards, took a long time, but it has stayed very tight. I live in a part of the country were we don't much varying of relative humidity, so I'm not concerned at all that they'll expand and buckle.
    Richard, would you mind doing a short video on those badass Diamondbacks. I've been wearing my set for 8 years, back when they were being sewn in Alaska. Very comfortable, the hammer holster and velcro belt system are ingenious. Unlike leather, they don't take 5 years to break in. Keep up the good work!

    I've been shooting 2 nails on each stud with the dewalt 16 ga nailer whenever installing T/G boards. It's not as aggressive as a 15 ga and it's not as weak as the 18 ga. It gives me the peace of mind that the boards are well secured in place and doesn't break the tongue.

    • @jasoningram2006
      @jasoningram2006 3 года назад

      Milwaukee makes a 23ga, 16ga, 15ga and the best 30° framing nailer around too. Also I just learned the other daythat you can buy correlated screws for a 21° framing nailer and use them and it will shoot the screws into the woods and then you can turn around and pull the screws out the drill or an impact if for any reason you didn't want to use ringnecks that way you could preserve the woods should you ever have to remove the material since renext would destroy whatever material you're trying to pull them out of in most cases.

    Glad to see you blind nailing. If nailing to drywall & framing , with concern that it will not hold. Add some basic construction adhesive dots to the backside every 16" or so. Can use a 16Ga. nailer that will take 2.5" brads > definitely reaching the backing . Again, if needed double nail each stud / rafter location. Looking good & have fun with the project. Ya! John needs a tooled pouch while helping out & up on a ladder!!
