Stud Pack, I'm a senior citizen and probably will no longer do all the spectacular projects that you do. I watch almost every video that you make. You and your son are really fun to watch, and you are truly a master craftsman. You make me feel young again, and yes I find myself buying quite a few new tools that you show while working on your projects. My 25' x 40' shop is home for over 50 years of buying nice tools. Many of the early hand tools came from garage sales, farm auctions, and thrift stores. I love buying a $20 tool for only pennies on the dollar. Hopefully someday one of my grandchildren will find a treasure in all of this. May you and your family be blessed with good health and all that you need.
Really appreciate that Terry thx a million 👊👍
@Terry Spreier - You sound like a saint of a man. I hope your grandchildren truly appreciate the treasure that is you, & your shop.
We love you Terry. You sound like the best kind of neighbor/citizen/granddad.
Grandpa it's me willie
Beautiful
Hey guys, love your videos but in referencing those screws always use a number 10 or heavier...on the upper cabinets!!! number eights have no sheer strength and that's what's holding up all of that weight so always at least a number 10. If not, a 12 will be your best friend and you won't ever have to worry about those cabinets coming off of the wall. Just some insight from a 63-year-old finish carpenter who was in the trades for over 40 plus years!!!
What you mean number 8 or 10 because we live in Europe 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭. What size it is? 8/25 of an inch?
@@apostoloskokalis3431 Google is your friend. 😉 #10 screw has a thread diameter of 4.8 millimeters. #12 = 5.5 mm.
@@sulero-zp3rd Now that's how to hang a cabinet. 😜😄
Thanks!
I can do it.
Been installing cabinets for 24 years your video will do fine for diy . I have many tips but one of the best one is that if the wall is crooked and your cabinet is level and you have a space between the top of the cabinet and the wall, before you put your screw in , put a shim in the gap so as you tighten the screw it doesn’t try to suck the back of the cabinet to close the gap and raise the front of your cabinet
I've been building and installing custom cabinetry for 40 years and I wouldn't let this hack near one of my cabinets.
Care to explain?
@booboo8577 why not? It makes sense to put a dim in the back to maintain perfect level as you torque your screw.
Nice work
This was the comment I was looking for, my walls are not perfectly square. In the video you can see he did this. Do I want to make sure the shim is with the stud and the screw with it so it holds the shim?
On the bottom of that island cabinet....If you've got a long travel like that and the screw isn't staying, put it on the bit, push a piece of blue tape over the screw end and fold the tape down the side of the bit. It will stay there and you can either yank it off once you get started or there will just be a small piece of tape stuck behind the screw head. Works well.
Love you guys! Just for the new DIYers watching this vid for the first time, there are a lot of different ways to install cabinets. There isn't any ONE correct way. But almost everyone ive worked with and seen on TV or RUclips take that important first step of finding the high point. Although they dont say it here, you also must ckeck about 22-24" out from the walls. A higher spot there can give you a rotten day!
Stud Pack slogan idea: "Let's get it done!"
Idk if you realize how often you already say it, but I bet Paul has said at least once in every vid since the beginning.
Perfect slogan for merch. 😉
Paul, thanks for showing the trouble that you had putting screws in under that island cabinet. We have all been there and it is good to see that even professionals have troubles at time. Thanks for all of the great tips in this video.
Watching that reminds me how much easier that is with Robertson screws.
Thank you, I’m in the process redoing my kitchen and I’m 2 weeks out installing the cabinets this has really helped me how to . I will definitely hit replay when the time comes
From what my cabinet manufacturer told me, those GRK cabinet screws are only to attach cabinets to the wall. It’s recommended that you use the trim head GRK screws (#8, 2 1/2) to attach cabinet-to-cabinet. The cabinet screws used need to be countersunk to avoid impacting the hinge / door, etc. Plus, it’s visible.
I use countersunk trim screws to attach my faces together. It just looks better in my professional opinion.
100% correct Victor!
A screw is a screw and will hold. It is not some traditional cabinet room piece so a screw here and there is not an issue.
Ive seen the recommendations for those also, but those trim heads dont do the job well. They pop right through and dont hold the cabinet together well at all
these are better, trim head are not strong
I've been a custom cabinet builder for over 30 years , I like the idea of the laser line. Modular cabinets are some of the hardest to set because of the way they are built . With hot melt glue and brad nails , or maybe thats just on the west coast. You guys rock
The trick with the screw and the prybar = Mind Blown! You guys are awesome!!! The "Protip" i tell people when installing the cabinets is that i like to do the bottom ones first. The reason for it is that the Stove kind of dictates where the uppers will go IF you have a Range/Microwave that will have to be directly over the Stove. IF you do the uppers first and for some reason your Stove location shifts (error in schematic or whatever), youre gonna have a fun time redoing the top ones and it will be even more costly if you put things like Filler panels/crown or what ever.
Base cabs first gang
I do the top ones first but start in a corner or on the end wall which will dictate where bottoms will end up. I always and about a 1/4" to the openings on the DW and stove.
If you read the walls and floors first with a level this is not an issue. It’s so much easier to do uppers first.
@@jonathanlove4333
I’m watching videos because I’m getting ready to install my new cabinets. I was thinking it would be easier to start on the uppers first so that I’m not in my own way. I used to hang drywall years ago and that’s where we start, lids first. Now I have some confirmation and an idea of what to look out for.
Thank you.
I enjoy your videos. You remind me of my Dad. I inherited many tools from him, my grandpa and many great uncles/cousins. We come from a long line of farmers and woodworkers and I am the only one that continues the tradition. I am quite proud of my handed-down tools. Most women search for perfect kitchens in their new home but I searched for the perfect garage/workshop. I was young when Dad died so I cannot remember all that he taught me and I turn to your videos for guidance. There are hundreds of other creators out there but only a handful that are enjoyable to watch and come back to and you guys are one of the best.
Really appreciate that petunia farm 👍
I drill the 1/8" hole thru both face frames but then redrill the first hole with a clearance hole equal to the diameter of the screw threads so the screw pulls the the face frames together. Luv your videos. You are a great educator.
Stud Pack, as a retired electrician and avid DIY'er I watch a lot of videos and yours are some of the best, most practical ones around. Thank you for all the work you do making our lives (re: work) easier, more efficient, and best of all, LOOKING GOOD!
I love that you show how difficult and frustrating even the easiest things can be!!! Thank you for being real about it!!!
I like to leave my laser line turned on, with the laser set up either on an extendable pole, or on a metal corner somewhere. You can then draw a line on a shim or some spare piece of wood and check the corners of every cabinet to see if your pencil line is matching up with the laser line. You can move around with that piece of wood and check the height at any top surface of your cabinets. It speeds up the process and gives more consistent results than reading a standard level from cabinet to cabinet.
Great video! Absolutely agree with you on using spacer boards for dishwasher, range spacing, etc. I also use the cabinet clamps. I can gang up to 4 cabinets together, on the floor, joint the back of the cabinets together with 1/2 spacer blocks and screws. Then install the gang of cabinets on the wall as one unit. Very fast.
I’ve been installing cabinets for 20+ years. When I’m looking for the highest point in a kitchen I use a story pole marked at 32 1/2” and 54”. This gives me the height of both upper and lower cabinets. I then use my laser to set the base cabinet line against the marks on the story pole. I put the story pole against the wall and then approximately 20” from the wall, out unto the kitchen, to insure there isn’t a hump in the floor. I note the dimensions as a move down the wall to find the highest spot in the kitchen. The laser is adjusted to the story pole line as as go. When all walls have been checked, the laser will be set to the highest point in the floor and I work off this line. The cabinet manufacturers I deal with with void the cabinet warranty if the cabinet is cut
Yes, this! So much easier and you can tell if the front of the cabinet is going to be on a high spot, not just the back. Plus, no math.
I gritted my teeth when he cut the bottom of the cabinet lol. I will always adjust/cut the floor or sand or grind it down instead of cutting a cabinet but hey, whatever it takes to get the job done huh!
I haven't even began to watch the video,and I'm so happy to see another one loving the multiple videos in a week.GOD BLESS YOU GUYS AND YOUR FAMILY'S
Love you guys. I watch your videos a lot. I'm redoing my kitchen. I refer back your videos all the time. Thank you so much. This is not what I do. But I m absolutely killing it thanks to you guys. That cabinet tool to align the cabinet is a great Idea. I did not use it. I used clamps but had I known about it I would have surely used it. Fast forward to the end. I installed my cabinet based on witching your videos. I had the counter people come out. I'm saying to myself if they say something isn't right or level I'm blaming Stud Pack. Lololol. I was dead on. No issues at all. Thanks again. You guys are awesome.
My wife and I just purchased a brick rancher built in the 50's and I can't wait to start remodeling! First project will be a brand new kitchen so I searched yt to refresh my memory and search for tips and tricks... thats how I found you. You guys are awesome and it really is nice to have someone explain the how and why of every step. Watching your videos reminds me of my younger days watching This Old House every single weekend.
As a retired contractor/ craftsman,your videos bring back many memories. Especially the screw falling off of the bit in tight places. Keep up the great work.
Bought these face frame clamps. Great reasonably priced tool. I use trim head screws to screw face frames together from BOTH sides which I locate behind hinge mounts so they never show. When floor out of level beyond 1/4" (almost always) I use strips of 1/8" doorskins & 1/4" strips of ply when needed under my cabinets. I always snap out the entire cabinet layout on the wall AND the floor which locates everything for plumber & electrician. The layout I snap out includes thickness of carcass walls on wall & floor. This step may take an extra hr but is so worth it it show exact placement of any shim strips you later check with your lazer b4 placing ea cab & guides any register placement in your kick plate etc etc. A straight edge on the top of cab run & on front face (6 ft level) will give an even overhang on your countertop as well as show you exactly how much to shom between cabinets at the back to maintain that uniform plane on the front face of the whole run of cabs. Be sure you have handles chosen b4 determining overhang of countertop & measure that dishwasher as well. Fine home building did a detailed article on hangi g a fairly involved set of kitchen cabs that is worth googling. Always a great review/reference reading b4 your next project.
2 new tricks from one video!
1-Love the screw and pry bar trick! I always wind up trying to lift and hold and screw at the same time. That's a giant pain in the whowho. I'll do it this way from now on!
2- The spacer trick is genius! I've installed probably 50 kitchens and I never thought of that. Measuring tapes work but that just makes it EASY! Great tip!
Double whammy! Thanks
Great video. Great comments to help all of us. I learned to install the top first and we used story poles. I just like the fun videos and honesty, integrity, and being transparent and real. Always fun to watch. Paul is like most of us...do the best you can and try to make a living.
I wish I could time travel haha. I just did my cabinets last month. These steps would have saved me a lot of time and frustration. Another great video guys!
Here's a tip when working with a level on finished products. Put a piece of masking tape on the straight edge of the level and it prevents the black scuff marks you get on cabinets, walls, furniture etc.
Great advice. Been in the cabinet business 8 years all the thinking ahead tips are quite important when room for error is slim
Another great video Studpack ! Here’s a tip when measuring from the center point. Instead of using a pencil on the end of the tape just rub the tape end up and down.. it will leave a mark on the wall. This is also a great way to center a picture on the wall. Just put the mark near the top on one side. It will stay level unless it’s bumped.
I’ve been looking for a comprehensive tutorial for about an hour. You guys nailed it.
Getting ready to install kitchen cabinets tomorrow for the first time- pray for us! :) so glad I found your channel- it’s been a great help getting ready. Looking forward to watching more videos!
I watch you guys all the time, and believe it or not I’m installing my first set of cabinets tomorrow. Love the dishwasher spacer trick!
Let us know how it goes Nate!
I REALLY love that you kept all the screw fails in there. Can't tell you just how much because that is reality.
On that I was wishing I could tell you to get some tape, push the screw through the sticky side and then wrap the flaps back like a bandaid onto the drill bit. So, you've taped the screw to the bit and half of the problems are solved.
Thanks for your content!
I'm getting ready to install my own cabinets. Perfect timing. You guys are awesome at explaining things and not adding too much glitter.
If you're chalking lines, remember that red chalk is more permanent than blue. Use blue chalk.
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. It’s a blessing to have this info compacted in such a way. Great channel!
Love this show. My daily fix. I have learned a lot about what to do and not to do. Keep up the work, Stud Pack!!
I should have seen this before i started my kitchen remodel.
Well done guys and good camera work and editing!
Great video! Love the moments of humor you include, and the pride you put into your work!
Wow! I'm a college professor with a PhD...and it took me a minute or so to figure out why the smaller number was the high spot! Thanks so much for this video. I've got the confidence now to set my base cabinets. I owe you guys one!
Ah man, wish you explained the answer too! Still scratching my head…
You're looking for the high spot. The highest point will be the measurement closest to the level line
I so anticipate your videos; it's like watching my favorite movie. I can't get it out of my head. Love your work. Love from Jamaica 🇯🇲
What an incredible duo. I love how you clearly explain this process. Be well.
Love your videos. I just saved a ton of time painting a 2500 SF ranch using your tip on how to hold the brush when cutting in the ceiling and around trim. Took a little practice but now it is second nature. Now I'm getting ready to tackle the kitchen. I hadn't considered RTA cabinets until I saw your video. Even the manufacturer liked your tip on using a pneumatic staple gun and mentions this in their instruction video.
But I'm still not convinced that the lower cabinets should be installed first. I like to gang the uppers together upside down on the ground when possible to get the tops lined up. Like you, I sight down the faces and install shims at the back to keep them from twisting. I also make two 2x4 deadman supports about 1/2 longer than my low spot to hold the cabinets in place. A gentle kick will raise the cabinet to the line. In my youth I could easily raise three cabinets by myself.
Stud Pack, for the most part I've worked solo so thank you for confirming that all the minusha that I do is correct and necessary. As I view your videos they continue to confirm that my methods based on common sense are correct. Wish I'd known of you several years ago. Thanks from San Antonio TX
It’s always the last screw … lol. Really dig your videos!
Another great video guys. I love watching your work and especially teamwork. I'm nowhere near your level but at least I can see the right way to do things before I screw something up. Keep it up.
Nice job you guys! I've been cabinetmaking since my junior year in HS (1979) and what you did here is what I've been doing for installs the whole time (after learning from the professionals/cabinet shop owners and foremen).
I have often used my straight-edge, a 8' long, 6061, aluminuim 2"x3" angle, 1/4" thick across the top front edges of the base cab's to be sure the counters would end up absolutely even (usually 1" to 1 1/4" from the face), but eyeballing that works also.
The extra mile thinking is the use of 'sex screws' to pull the faces flush with each other when they meet up. The sex screws are used so as to not split a face frame with the pressure of the threads of a wood screw. I have seen the splits over the years when weight was added from pots and pans, dishes etc. as they can quickly add up to hundreds of pounds per cabinet, especially glass dishes in upper cabinets.
The ones I have found to work best use a 3/16" hole drilled through both frames and the two parts are threaded together (I add blue Locktite too) while clamped and the cab's don't budge. Three on base cab's, four on uppers. Then shorter ones parallel to the top edge of the base cab's, about 2-3" down to be sure the cab boxes work together to support the countertops.
Seems like more than is needed, but I can't tell you how many times I was removing cab's to be replaced, to see where the old cab's were about to fail, or did fail because of underestimating the stresses. I feel better after an install which has been over-done, not one where installers are asking themselves "what if?".
The last thing I do is water-proof the top edge of at least the sink cab, but all of them if I can convice the owners. I use Christy's Red Hot Blue PVC cement and it is the only thing I have gone back to see it still working as planned long after the install. It was '04 when I began to use it and went to replace a sink last year where the on-counter sink sealant had failed but the top edge of the cab was fine though water had been migrating to that area behind the faucet for years.
Great video, I think the issue I've always had was how to properly install shims, how to keep them from moving around once installed and whether to cut them off or leave them between cabinets, etc. It would also really help if you numbered your videos to follow progress through each project ie: townhouse2,townhouse3, or similar.
Love watching you guys work and explain all the tips and tricks you use. For a DIYer like me, that's so valuable. Thank you.
Another great video. Love the screw and prybar trick.
Another reason to do lowers first is if you use cabinet jacks, you can just drop a piece of plywood on the lowers and get the uppers knocked out.
Your explanations and the progression of those explanations are always easy to follow and on point. Appreciated.
I can’t believe you don’t have a million subscribers yet. These are the best videos ever. I may never put in cabinets but I’m saving the video just to watch it again. You guys rock!!
Now, that was a hammer. Perfect for installing a kitchen.
Learned a lot, thank you again!
Dude, I just $6889.22 on my full RTA White Shaker cabinets for a 10x17 kitchen. I assembled them with glue and a crown stapler because of your video tips. Now when I install them, the effort and labor will be minimized and particular attention and shortcuts can be exploited because of vids like this! Thanks a million!
I haven't done much in the way of cabinets, but I will do more occasionally. I love that idea of leveling up the bases with a screw and prybar. so simple, I can't believe I've never seen that before. thanks for the tip
yeah yea, "that's what she said"
My Friends you guys are the best !! stud pack daddy you are a great teacher , and when dealing with screws there is always one . thank you for all the tips. keep it up !!!!
As a house builder I appreciate the details in your work guys !!
Stud Pack thank you! I went out and bought those Bessey clamps and installed 22 kitchen cabinets with these. They are so much better and faster then a standard clamp. I am hoping that Bessey can add a little vertical and horizontal level bubble. I am very OCD about little things like that and that would really make a great product complete. Keep u the outstanding work and advice you guys give! I am becoming a better finisher because of all your advice!
First of all great video I always like your projects.
I was taught to do cabinets very similar to the way you do it and it always worked well. We had no lasers at the time but a 4 foot level did the job. The only thing we do different is we install the upper cabinets first that way you don’t have to work over the bottom cabinets. But by putting in the bottom cabinets you do give yourself some sort of a work platform for installing the uppers so I guess either way works, installers choice.
Appreciating your video today. Im so pleased with myself as I do all you mentioned but the the screw and levering up that cabinet is new to me. Brilliant! Thanks. Just installed my first cabinets with the red face frame clamps and really like them. Bought a set of 4 as I often work with 42” cabinets. Several clamps help straighten out a warped face frame at least matching each other. Previously it was a battle to get a front match up.
Oh and just started using a relatively inexpensive laser level that we’ve all seen the internet ads for. Fantastic product. Helps identify leveling issues that will come up.
really great video. Love that you showed the back screw repeats. Think we've all been there so it was good to see that legitimacy!
Man O Man, that face frame clamp is worth it's weight in gold! Great job as always. Looking forward to the upper installation.
I was looking how to use an Apple Pencil on a game that doesn’t allow it, and like the other guy…I’m old and do not often this kind of work anymore. But StudPack you guys make the awesomest videos ever, wish I was 40 years younger and ran into your videos when I didn’t know how to do any remodeling, you are by far one of the best explainers I have watched and make me want to go rework something.
That vice is one of the best tools I have seen for making a job easy, I could have used that many a time in my day. Oh and I’m sure you know but just didn’t have one on you, a bit extender will hold the screw on your Phillips all the way to the wood, I think I was 61 the first time I realized it extended to hold the screw, then again I never had the extended version that slid out until that age. Who knew right.
You're a great craftsman and video producer. Thank you for the tips, advice, and instructions.
It is very difficult to find quality contractors like you and your son. Thanks for all the great tips and best of luck to the both of you.
glad I found your channel!!! just about to do my kitchen. your videos are the best so far. very informative and meticulous which is important with expensive counter tops and the final look. thanks!!! keep posting
Man I love watching you guys work and I've learned a lot, thanks for all the great tips in your videos
bought that bessy tool it made the job so much easier. Thanks!!
Great tips on cabinet placement and minor corrections! Faces on my pre-built "box store" bathroom cabinets had impossible to flush face frames. I 'averaged out' the fit which is un-noticeable when finished. Starting my RTA kitchen using flat packed parts, so I'm hoping for a better face frame fit up. Thanks so much for these videos!
Your video and very detailed instructions gave me hope to install cabinets without having to call a professional, thank you
Nice job and as always educational for the DIY person. I too tend to think ahead for possible problems that could be encountered. Learned a lot from watching you. One mistake can extend installation time and ruin the look trying to recover during the installation. Sometimes, most times it’s better to just start over and start correctly.
Great video, and great information. Unlike most DIY guys on RUclips, you actually have content worth watching. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Love the look of satisfaction, when the cabinet holes all lined-up…..”Nice” !
Great video again!
So to help out with the screw dropping out of the bit, take a rain drop amount or less of butyl tape and press it on to the phillips bit then press the screw onto the bit. The stickness of the tape will hold the screw. Butyl tape has many purposes but When I was an auto body tech it was used to hold rear and side car windows in place by some auto manufacturers . You can get it at auto parts stores.
I have to tell you, about 3 weeks ago, I ran across a first video of yours, on how to make a heavy duty extension cord…it was great! thanks. For 3 weeks I’ve been binge watching your video’s, starting from your very first one…..I’m so impressed in how humble you are, when you are very talented, so talented you probably could have your own show on TV. But I know you don’t want that. I’ve learned so much from you and your son, and I thank you for it. A few months from now we’ll be moving into our house and I can use that new lazer I bought to hang my pictures on the walls…..just like you showed!…take care, my friend……
Thx a million Rodney 👍👊
So.... you got me! This is my second or third video from you and I'm now subscribed. Love how well and insightful you are with everything you're doing. Thank you sir!
Man you guys are awesome. I can appreciate all the little tips you put into your videos. Another great job!!!!
Great video! Just in time too. About to reinstall mine and this showed me some things I haven’t considered.
Subscribed sometime during covid but I missed this video until now. This is classic Stud Pack! Great how-to info, tips, chemistry, camera work, editing, sidebar commentary and humor. If someone asked me for the best SP video, this is in the Top 10.
I just wanted to share some gratitude…
(Short version of story..)
My Lady bought a house she shouldn’t have and I’m rebuilding from inside out while living in it and your videos are AMAZING!! I love the attention to detail and the visuals. Many people ASSUME that everyone knows what you know. I’m glad that you explain WHY AND HOW!! Thank you
Nice job! Some great tips and those cabinet clamps are slick! I wish I had them last year when I remodeled my kitchen. Keep up the great videos!
I like to countersink the screws that clamp the face frames together, when they are clearly visible, and then fill the holes with Bondo, sand flat and touch up the paint. Bondo seems not to shrink or swell. Really enjoyed the video and picked up some good tips, especially the 24 inch temporary filler boards to keep the dishwasher opening exact width. Very smart. Thanks guys. PS….use composite shims and you don’t have to worry about them rotting from touching the concrete and soaking in water.
the finish carpenter I work alongside the most takes the hinges off and puts countersunk screws behind the hinges. that way if he does have to pull a cabinet, he can just take the hinges back off.
Thank you thank you Thank you
I have been waiting for 8 months for my handyman to install my base cabinets which I have had for a YEAR.I was told I would get a call 3 days ago. I have installed my upper cabinets but wasn’t comfortable with the base cabinets. After watching your video
I WILL NOW BE INSALLiNG THEM MYSELF .. again THANK YOU
35 years in the cabinet business (so far) Always installed solo, for most of that time uppers first (no ledger) the idea is you get under the cabinet for support, you develop a knack for it, but as I have gotten older, I now ( almost always ) set my base's 1st . How do I get under the walls with the base's in the way?? I made two box's out of plywood ( one lager, one smaller ) the large box is approximately 36" wide, 12" deep and 19 1/2 tall (thats important, the height) so after I set my base cabinets, box on top of base's, wall cabinet on top of box ( not much need of leveling wall because bases are set ) and make for hands free wall cabinet install. I have two sets of "Pony" faceframe clamps (little bit nicer that the Bessy's) got the first set 20 years ago best $200 I'd ever spent ( they were expensive back then for a set, now like $30 for the bessy's i think ) BTW the smaller box? same height its just smaller in width for when the 36" is to big and small enough in depth to fit inside the large box.. Cheers
You got 20 years on me in the biz. I've done both uppers first and bases first. Ledger boards, kicker sticks, free hand, all the ways. When I'm working solo, I do bases first, then whip out a 48x12 piece of plywood over the bases and my cabinet jacks. I think they're FastCap brand. But I can lift the upper on them, do micro adjustments, and if I forget a tool, I can step away and it won't fall, but still be on my level line.
@@BenMarvin , yep step away (thats what i meant by "hands free") I micro adjust with shims between the box and upper. I thought of the "box method" when I had to install cabinets on a block wall. set the upper on the box and then drill for tap-con's
@@nedscrivner9893 Always a great time installing into masonry.
You are awesome I am a woman and you did this great and I understand all of it keep up the great work. You can see that you Love what you do!
Fantastic video. I’ve installed about five kitchens and wish I could time travel back with these tips.
Now is time to go back and reinstall my cabinets . Thanks for the video
Redoing my kitchen in a few weeks as well. Video liked and saved for when the time comes. :)
You guys are great. I love watching and use a ton of your tips and tricks
You guys are the only channel that I give a thumbs up to before I even watch it
Excellent presentation. You are a good trainer, and your experience shows.
One of the best installation video I’ve ever seen! Thanks
Hey Paul
You guys are incredible as a father and son team I really enjoy your videos.
I am at about your age and do finish carpentry and renovations. It will be nice for you guys to do a background trade video how you got started so rest of us in the trades have an idea! About the shims you put under cabinets here is a tip. Use composite shims over concrete instead of wood.
I like how you said, "34 and 9." I worked for over decade with a dude I became friends with. When we took measurements we'd say the number and then 3 for 3/16, 5 for 5/16, 7 for 7/16 , 9 for 9/16, 11 for 11/16, 13 for 13/16 and 15 for 15/16. It was just easier to communicate when we're both on the same verbiage. And we always used the same measuring tape as well. Different tapes have variances that'll goof you up sometimes.. I like your videos guys. Thank you very much.
Wow! This is the first video I’ve seen from you guys and wow! I’m definitely a fan this was great! I’ve done cabinets before and I’m normally a wing it/ ya that looks level type of guy but after seeing this you explained everything so good I’m about to do it the right way next time! Thanks!
I have to say, you have some really good tips and tricks in these videos. I have an old Victorian that needs lots of work and I’ll need all you can show me.
The little tips provided along the way make all the difference. Thanks for another great video!
You are so knowledgeable!! I should have been a carpenter....I love to build!! Great video and information!! Excellent job!!!
Paul, I love your vids. You and Jordan make a great team. We have a contracting company in Colorado. You are our kind of people. Keep up the good work on the channel. Its really growing and you guys deserve it with all the hard work. Thanks!
always entertaining and informative i was watching you put in blocks on floor wondering if you were going to put screws in where they could be seen or come up with another way. this is more interesting than watching tv lol
Wow!! Never seen that. Using 2x4 to attach from the inside..What a great idea!! Notched 2x4 edge to compensate floor differential and using roofing material to keep moisture away from wood.. EXCELLENT GUYS!! 👉💯❤👍💥💥💥💥👊
This is a great educational video with awesome commentary and a few laughs. Well done, thank you.
