You are one of the few that named your channel exactly what it shows. You really are a framing beast. I've been doing home construction for 20+ years and you sir are one of the best I've ever seen do it. Keep up the good work 💪
74x2 is 148 😂 The way I always do it, like for that which has 2, I find the center of 224 and then I pull off of that to the center of each vent. But here in Florida the plan shows where the vents go (roughly) so I just find the nearest trusses and put it there between them so I put less blocking
@@framingbeast720 Im pretty sure its the boys on Wallstreet. I know for a fact the guys that cut it down haven't seen an increase in profits. and neither has the Mills. Box stores usually purchase at the futures price as well so they aren't really making a ton extra either. Glad to see the futures price crash last week from 1,700 per thousand board foot down to 750-800 per thousand board foot.
Sheets of osb got up to 42 dollars a piece.. That was about 2 weeks ago.. I was at home depot this morning, and they're back down to 23 dollars a sheet
I really admire carpentry especially framing and all respect to you because I could not find myself running around open joists and on top of rafters and steep roofs over one level.
Steep and looks not easy. Wow. Your wicked by yourself , no labourer hands you stuff and your fast ...thanks for sharing. I did framing a few years and sheathing the steep ones was what I hated. Takes a strong nimble and flexible helps to be on that pitch sheathing and great tips I Remy doing the exact things and it was fun in my.20s. Now I'm 250 pounds and too heavy to be up there. Cool to see the same work being done. Too heavy to be unable to even walk on that pitch I would roll right off ha ah
What’s wrong with ridge venting? The roofer should be cutting in that style of venting and blocking should be used if you cut right on a seam like that. An H clip is not sufficient
Your almost right about the roof vents ......it's every 300 qubic feet within your roof space.....your not ventilating the second floor....thats what your furnaces return air is for lol,
I remember when my brother and me tear off about 25 sq of wood shingles and redeck the whole house in 1 day including underlayment......i guess I was too young.
Man i had to sheath a whole house with 2 other guys who dont know shit. It was 40 sq. I had no idea its such a bitch especially when the rafters arent seperated right . Ill stick to roofing theres lots of problems that come up in framing
They are Dakotas with the tarantula grip bottoms. Marks work warehouse in canada sells them. Basically any work shoe or boot that has the tarantula grip is a good bet
show us how you straighten the gable and if you straighten/plumb it first so you can nail as you go or if you leave if unnailed and straighten at the end. Argued with plenty of guys about the best way to do this
I like to plumb the gable first. Then do the leave off end sheets, snap line down the king truss and push or pull to line trick. As long as it’s plumb and straight at the end is all that matters. Same I wasted lots time arguing about it. Not going to do it anymore. You go do it your way and I’ll do it mine.
Quick tip if its a full gable roof ( less common these days) the best and most accurate way to get your gable laser straight is to level the middle with a brace then when you sheath run the sheets long and chalk a line from bottom to top , cut sheathing then bring the fascia flush with the line
Sorry just saw this now, the sheats that are running past the roof line are stapled up, just a case of cutting them in place after that. Absolutely love the dewalt saw
So is imperial still the standard for measurement in building across the world. I'm in the US so we use imperial but how would you do roof pitch in metric. My buddy lives in Ottawa and he uses metric at work but not in building so clearly there is both. Happy Easter! Beast Mode!!!
Instead of a whole bunch of separate vents, why don’t you use a continuous rolled ridge-vent at the peak? You just leave a plywood gap at the ridge pole and then the shingle installer rolls the fiber out and then they put the asphalt shingles over it to create a continuous vent at the top. It looks a lot nicer than scattering ugly vents everywhere
I'm a roofer, and Ridge vent is the new way to go.. However, you can only use ridge vent if the house has soffit vents.. That way you'll have air intake from the soffit vents, and it can exhaust out of the ridge
...last time I checked could nails are far superior in terms of holding strength to a smooth shank 30° strip nail...I know also because I've shot myself with both 😅...on the other hand, shoot yourself with a ring shank strip nail and just cut off your 🦵
@@jamesmorgan8193 well, he just sheathed a roof by himself all day, and is now filming a video, so his math might be off, but a couple inches on a vent doesn't matter
I don't work there I don't know what's going on in your job site but what I don't like and I don't like I said I'm not there at that moment why do you have so much extra slack on your safety rope it looks like you have way too much slack looks like the safety rope should be tightened up made shorter or way too much on top of the roof I'm not there I don't know just looks bad

Much appreciated 🙏 that's some high praise
It's facts I've never seen someone doing it like this fine man.
I do commercial/industrial construction and I’ve got much respect for what you do brother. Be safe up there. Working at that pace can be dangerous.
Thankyou

Beat me to it!
Lol ya total brain fart 🤣
I started to learn and try to understand the basic of framing at the age of 35. Brother, watching you doing what love to do blows my mind away 🤙
Super cool. As a welder I love watching guys do other trades. Bless
Thanks, I find the same goes for me with watching roofing videos for some reason
all that gold your standing on is making me jealous. lol cant believe the prices right now.
Materials are insane currently. My 12/2, 250’ rolls are up to 140-150 a roll
Question is, with the huge difference in lumber/building material prices year over year who's pocketing all the extra money

74 and 74 is 148
Where did you get 152?

bro how do you have so much confidence? Im a roofer and id shit myself framing a roof like that
I remember doing long division on plywood standing at the ridge many times.👍 come down 12 and 20 for the vents
I was told to do 7x9 for vents. Pull 12 and 21
Are there different vent sizes?
@@Mr.DanielMiyagi they may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer. The holes in the vent are 10x10, so anything in that range will work.
Do u straighten the fascia with a string line and then skip snapping a chalk line 48" up from the fascia for the first row of sheets?
74x2 is 148. So your measurement in between the 2 vents is 78 not 74 correct?
I caught that too.. He said 152.. And it's actually 148
That's why its call rough carpentry 😂
Dang brotha killing it
You should do a video on your technique in making marks, that was a beautiful pinch on your tape and a straight Line around 4:00
theres not much technique involved in that besides keeping tension on the tape and holding a tight pinch on your mark. the rest is drawing a line lol.
Drywaller trick we use always
You deserve a shit load more subscribers
are they roofing that house behind you with no felt paper or underlayment?
Yeah wth just noticed that
They're also racking it so that's even worse
They put ice and water for 18 inches past the wall line below. When I framed my first house I had it done the right way. All the way up!
Good lord! This must be some gubbermint housing.
@@Josh-ww5kz they could be 3 tab, but I'm not sure if that's better or worse.
I would like to do Framing but up to the second floor, aint doing roof lol, im a trim carpenter and struggle with a ladder on a high window
very cool saw
Does Canada always use trusses
i’ve got a question bro why do you use staples than not nails while sheeting
Wow! Good work and good tips, as always!
Happy easter!
Yes Evandro!!! Happy Easter to you and your family
CORDLESS SAW IS BEST INVENTION....NEED TO SHORTEN ROPE..TO MUCH LEASH...
Bro, it would be lovely that you include the equipment you used in the videos. Like the stapler used for fasten the sheathing.
What’s wrong with ridge venting? The roofer should be cutting in that style of venting and blocking should be used if you cut right on a seam like that. An H clip is not sufficient
:35 Am i seeing those houses being shingled next door correctly? It looks like shingles straight to plywood. No underlayment whatsoever?
Your almost right about the roof vents ......it's every 300 qubic feet within your roof space.....your not ventilating the second floor....thats what your furnaces return air is for lol,
If you ever come up near Innisfil to work I'll bang some units up with the beast any time brother
This guys a bad ass💯💪
Love the extra H clips. Nice work bud 👍. Sucks about the helper but hey, did It before with out him. Be doing long after he's gone ;)
In this scenario I would lower the vent by 2" so you don't cut right threw the sheet
I'm looking work. U need any help?
I remember when my brother and me tear off about 25 sq of wood shingles and redeck the whole house in 1 day including underlayment......i guess I was too young.

Where did you get that air hose ?
What state are you in, cutting vents like that?
I want to see you get all that extra sheets down now lol
Great work! How grippy are your boots on the roof, and what’s the brand if so?

4:10 74... 152. how did you get those?
Lol I was just who was paying attention…that’s my story and I’m stickin to it
What are you all building
2:15 house across from you that has shingles going down... no underlayment? I see the starter coarse but that's it.
Never seen these houses get under lay.
Looks like that area needs a good sider to jump right in
What brand air hose are you using
Flexeel max 1/4
Why not just do ridge vent? What we always do, honestly curious.
Architect's choice. It probably saves them a few bucks in avoiding the extra ridge vent blocking. I see them on new apartment builds in Texas, too...
Very nice!! How do you keep the sheet from falling off the edge when putting it in place? Also, how do you like that dewalt cordless saw?
Sorry just saw this now, the sheats that are running past the roof line are stapled up, just a case of cutting them in place after that. Absolutely love the dewalt saw

I'm in Ottawa, plans/blueprints are typically metric from my experience and then I just use a combo tape for some layouts and imperial for the rest

He doesn't need to build the shed. When he arrives, the shed builds itself! Beast mode💪

Birds have hard time flying around theses houses.
