Sorry for the delay in uploads! Spent the last few days at the lake, honing in on my wakeboarding skills (or lack of, I should say). Back to typical uploads, 2-3x weekly! #BANGON
Matt, as a baby boomer I can’t begin to express how proud I am of you and your crew for your amazing work ethic and commitment to excellence! You young men are the brightest part of our nations future! Bang on little brother!!!
First off: think it’s cool that you give us some great “nuggets” after the vid; & talk to us about diff topics. NICE👍🏻👍🏻 Gotta be nice to have some great working weather; you can have all of my crap weather right now...... I’ll go ahead & wrap it up & send it your way; FL summers plain suck😉 Nice work on the build; looking great, & super excited to continue watching. As seeing the plans, layout & progress your at now; I can “See” the building done.....what I’m excited about is seeing all that detail & finish work; which adds the “family touches” to a building/house & makes every project special in its “own ways”. (Sorry to the ppl who completely think I’m a moron & am crazy for saying this. Oh, also, yeah....I’m a wee bit crazy, it who ain’t 🤣😉) Cheers✌🏼
Hey, Matt, you need a COX 63002 Berkshire 29-Ounce Cartridge Pneumatic Caulk Gun. You can get one on Amazon for $122.37, money well spent! These things are the shit, time saver & no forearm workout. Love the one I use at work. Keep up the good work bro. Bang On!
Still new to the channel, and playing catch up with all your vids. Im a finish carpenter/furniture maker, and Im finding a lot of education on your videos learning a lot about the rough carpentry side of things. Great videos, great explanations, great craftsmanship and attention to detail. Keep it up!! Also, not sure if anyone has talked about the battery powered router you were trying to use, but I can weigh in with my knowledge on the finish carpentry side. That is a trim router. It is not designed for the stresses of using the full width of the bit. It doesnt have the hp to keep up. Trim routers are generally for smaller designs like a 1/4 round over or a chamfer. Definitely would need a full size router to keep up with stress of OSB window cut outs.
Regarding the bolt threads, look up the AISC Design Guide No 1. It’s an overview of topics concerning base plates. In there they have a section regarding what to do when your anchor bolts are too short. Might be worth bringing it up to your engineer as a resource (I’m a structural)
Good stuff brother thanks for the 6/12 tip. If u don’t space ur subfloor sheathing could the plywood itself rub into the next panel and cause ur floor to squeak during the summer time when wood expands? Thanks
Theres alot going on with that deck. Im kinda curious how its gonna work out too. Is the tpo mechanical fastened or fully adhered? Keep up the great work and always Bang on Brother!🤘🇺🇸
I know that this is an older video. But would it not be easier to let your saw ride along the side of your jig, just like you would let it run along the side of your square? That would save quite some walking time since you already have both your saw and the jig in hand. Of course only on the ground. Couldn't imagine doing that up high in the rafters or on a plate.
Matt, I stumbled across your channel on Friday last week I think? And already I’ve watched your entire “Building A Custom Home” (the one in the windy Valley looking area) series and now am on to this one! The quality of everything from explaining concepts and reasons why you do what you do all the way to editing, is super sick! I have so many questions, as I want to start working in construction ASAP, but I’ll save you and the community from the spam hah! But one question I do have is, how do you know where the stud is when sheathing? Right now I’m at about 10:21 in the video and had to pause it. Do the sheets come marked 16” apart? Do you mark each sheet? Don’t know if that’s a dumb question but this is me learning and I would love to pick your brain on questions like this and more! Much respect from Chicago -JR
I trimmed the bush around my “deck” and it makes it look huge. Also as a Millwright three threads is the rule wherever you go. Be it industrial construction or commercial or residential. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Hi Matt, the house is looking great, but a question, Why did you use the tail gauge to mark the deck tails freehand, when you could have used it to cut the tails with, instead of marking them all?
Matt, Enjoy your videos. Protip - "Find out what the inspector is into and small talk about that". I know you're a young guy but I wouldn't try that with an inspector with any gray on his head or in his beard. Most of the experienced inspectors are pretty much on to those "tactics". Distraction, leaving something for easy to catch, small talk. I always told contractors not to follow me around the jobsite specifically for those reasons. We can small talk or talk about the inspection after the inspection is completed and I gave him the correction notice or not. Inspectors who think contractors are bull******g them tend to look a little closer at the project. Trust and good quality work goes a long way with building a good relationship with your inspector. Have the things you know he's going to call corrected before he or she inspects. The inspector knows your work and can leave the measuring tape in the truck. Agree with you on the number of threads over the nuts on a bolt. Once again enjoy your videos.
Appreciate you $0.02 on the subject! Also, love the name on here. It's interesting to hear that you wouldn't want someone following you around the job site. Locally, I've never seen an inspection without someone following nearby, often times just to make note of things (granted that's only in the framing world). From my experience, it's been the opposite when it comes to older vs. younger inspectors.. I have nothing but respect for anyone we come in contact with regarding business, and the older cats that come inspect are great, always super nice and knowledgeable! We had a younger kid come out to inspect at the winery we built and he was all over the place, I'll be glad if we never have to do that again. Thanks for talking on the subject, it's nice to hear it from another perspective!
I have a question regarding walking on top plates. I didn't know I had a fear of heights until I had to walk on a wall ten feet high. How do I get over that so I can maneuver like the rest of these guys. Or can I avoid it? How often do you need to walk them. THanks - new to construction
Every project. It’s kind of something that just goes away.. Just think of the fact that you’re there to do said job, and that’s what ya gotta do. It’ll all work out, but it takes time!
@@MattBangsWood appreciate the reply. I'm thankful for your page man! 15 years ago this would be TLC channel shit. I wish you a ton of success. And I will be following along

Really curious why they didn't choose a concrete deck that would obviate all the extra framing and waterproofing? Couldn't they lay sleepers on the concrete for a wood deck ? Yes, still might need some dampproofing and flashing at the deck/wall interface, but seems far less costly (and fewer concerns about long-term maintenance of that deck). Be interesting to interview the architect and get his/her rationale behind that decision.
6:58 I'm not seeing a link to that 90Degree tool you used on the end of that impact driver to get in between those close studs...what is that called? Because i absolutely have to have one
I am curious about this high-end type of home was the zip board and tap system looked at. If not just curious why is it something that is not used allot int he area?
It's just now getting to California and its not close to normal osb price. Owners care more about cost than efficiency. Also we bid labor and material off sqft I try to hint at using these products to the gc or owners usually but when they hear cost its usually turned down.
Do the inspectors in Killa Cali use magnets to check your nails? They do here in MN. We also have 3' long straps on every corner and every 10' or so along the entire span of the house that we have to nail off with dozens & dozens of nails. The straps are set in the footings and run up the sides of the house. We call them "tornado" straps, lol. Thanks for the content, Matt. Btw, tell your guys to quit standing around so much. When in doubt, scrap out... lol
Hi Matt or anyone that frames one Canada I’ve just finished my apprenticeship in the uk and would like to become a framer , what sort of role in the team would I apply for journeyman /apprentice / helper ? Any advice would be great
That would depend on your skill level, honestly. We're not in Canada, we're in US. You'd more than likely get hired on middle of the totem pole and they'd decide whether or not you're meant for a higher position. Better to expect less and get more!
Yep, finding the inspectors topic of interest is beneficial. This is a strange one: we had an inspector that would show up to the sight smelling of garlic and we knew he had gone to Los Algodones Mexico for a garlic colon flush over the weekend.....and this was the topic he wanted to discuss; "I went to Mexico over the weekend......." We know, we smell you. A WEIRD dude to walk the job with for sure.

How come your not using the battery operated skill saw? Ive noticed you been using the mikita more often. Do you perfer that one versus the other one?
You should do a Q&A with all the guys on site
Definitely! That’d be cool
I second that
Matt, as a baby boomer I can’t begin to express how proud I am of you and your crew for your amazing work ethic and commitment to excellence! You young men are the brightest part of our nations future! Bang on little brother!!!

Born and raised the the San Francisco Bay area, the entire state from Sacramento south sucks now, be happy your in Florida, I landed in South Carolina
Wow, that weather looks amazing.
my back hurts just watching you and Fox bent over all day. Thanks for the content.
Awesome job Matt crazy nail pattern bang on
It is Looking Great. Like your tool for marking all the tails.
All you need is a bevel square. Set it at 2 degrees and be on your way. not wasting 3 minutes building a gauge.
That is a massive porch!!!! Great job
Damn Fox is a beast on that nail gun
As Always Nicely Done 👍🔨📐

It's the glue in the USB. It's very, very hard, and the little trim router just doesn't have the power to deal with it. Not the tool's fault for sure.
“Trim the bushes around the deck and it will look bigger.”
Hilarious
Fox your a beast nailing off love to see it
very good I miss working in this area
those "Strong wall" configurations are a pretty neat setup.

Hey @mattbangswood great vid. Not sure if possible but it will be great to see this house once complete. 🤞🏻

Bang on man, love the channel
Matt I love your framing skillz wish I could work for you I have 5 years of experience
你终于更新了！等的花儿都谢了
Keep up the hard work man awesome work
Over 100° in Salt Lake right now 😭 I can’t wait for cool fall weather. I wish I could be out working in that beautiful fog and 60°
I’ve worked in oil refinery’s and they require 3 threads minimum as well for what ever bolt. Being hangers or supports or flanges
Theres alot going on with that deck. Im kinda curious how its gonna work out too. Is the tpo mechanical fastened or fully adhered? Keep up the great work and always Bang on Brother!🤘🇺🇸
Another learning video.👍🏻
I know that this is an older video. But would it not be easier to let your saw ride along the side of your jig, just like you would let it run along the side of your square?

Great video!
Was there a change on the porch deck? Seems like a lot to cut off from 2500 miles away 😉
I like a min of 8" in the field especially on OSB.
Sick video matt

Hi Matt, I would like to ask you what hammer are you using? Is it Vaughan California 19oz.?
What kind of boots you guys wear? steel toe or regular soft toe work boots?
Hi Matt, the house is looking great, but a question, Why did you use the tail gauge to mark the deck tails freehand, when you could have used it to cut the tails with, instead of marking them all?
Seems to be the most accurate to make all the tails the same . But what do I know I didn't go to work today!
I'm putting strong walls as well
Hey Matt, I never heard back from you about that Makita router. Did you decide not to get rid of it?
For the CS16 straps, do you nail just at the studs or every hole?
Nailing patern did you mention it takes 10d nails
No treated wood and OSB on the decks?
What are the working times that you guys work?
For the "Subscribe" button push at the end of the video - you could say "Bang it & Bang on"
Hey Matt ... you guys ever work in the Fresno / Clovis area framing ?
No sir, price for framing goes WAY down in the central valley.
MattBangsWood Yeah and the heat sucks too. Great videos ... keep up the awesome work.

@3:00 does your sheet materials sit on the concrete slab
I got the cordless makita 7 1/2 saw with 4. 5ah batteries. What impact drill would u suggest?

Man California inspectors sure seem to have a hard on for nailing patterns!
I added marks on my nail gun magazine at 6" and 12" to make sure my perimeter and field nailing are always within
It's because of the Earthquakes.
@@wizard_mickey the paslode has a 📏 on nail rack
A good nailer shouldn't have to mark the gun. For the new guy yes, but for a skilled laborer the eyes never lie
@@alexmitilica99 when you only do sheathing and sheer once in a great while it's better to be safe than sorry
Okay do you ever put a string line in your walls I'm curious or you just
On your exterior walls, you don't let your ply run up to catch your rafter blocks. Would be 10 times stronger .
hold downs attach to tension cord
What siding is going on the house? I would love to know

matt i need merch
I'm waiting on my used Honda Civic truck load of merch to come in, as soon as it's here, it's going up.
In this video I can say that green helmet guy loves using nails 😂😂
Looks like a mid century modern design maybe?
They're calling it a 'Classic Ranch Rambler'.
When u use nail as spacer does it throw off 16 on center
Our osb here is 1/8th shy so it works out perfect
I'd be sweating buckets if I wore a hoody and pants in that weather holy
Why are you using osb on the deck
That red sweatshirt Where can I order one for my future son-in -law?

Always use 8 to nail plywood
Alex Carrillo yeah I know but some people’s use 16ths maybe those are the dirty people that’s don’t give shits you know
