My husband reminded me this morning that we started building our house 2 years ago. We moved in a little over a year ago. Yes it took a good year to build before we could move in. We built it with our own hands, every board and nail. The only worker we hired was the electrician. I give thanks to this channel and a couple of others for the advice, skills, and techniques they share. After moving in, we added 2 porches, and a guest room. We have a wonderful PAID FOR house now that we will enjoy for the rest of our lives.
You guys inspire me to do this soon thank you!
Thank you for sharing this you should put some videos up just to give back to the community; that's a wonderful testimonial
Congratulations 🎊🍾🎉 best feeling being mortgage free
That is so awesome congratulations its definitely an achievement not many have done 👏 😀 👍
How the heck did you have time to do this with a regular job?
This is the simplest explanation of framing and the different stud types - it now makes sense! Thank you.
I'm a general contractor in Champaign, Illinois, USA and have been watching your videos for awhile now. I just wanted to say thank you for all the awesome lessons. I really like your teaching style. Til next time :)

Shannon you are amazing, you should teach people in Construction school. God bless you for helping people, and thank you for transfering your knowledge. Thanks Again.
I'm a teacher and appreciate your teaching style. The best RUclips videos on home improvement and construction. Logical. Precise. Understandable. Clear stepped by step instructions. My go to videos. Thanks and keep up the fine work.
This is the video I've looked everywhere for! I'm a single mom trying to enclose a garage by myself. Your video answered every question I have. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to do such a great video. Thank you!
You can do it!
Shannon, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate these instructional videos. As a guy who didn't work in construction at any time in my life, your explanations are clear and very informative. Thank you for taking the time to share your extensive knowledge with us.
Carpenter's apprentice here, this helped me alot, and impressed my boss when I showed him I knew what was up! Thanks man
I can't say enough how informative, comprehensive and clear-cut your videos and teaching style is Shannon. Much love - thank you!

Thanks Shannon. Because of your videos my husband & I just built and installed a 4x8 garden closet on the end of my garden shed. We used screws to put it basically together then got a low-end framing nailer (which is amazing) and secured everything. It is square and level. I won't say it was easy for us, but it is a very solid structure. Rafters next! Thanks again! Jean & Ken.
Keep making these videos Shannon. I appreciate people like yourself who are willing to share your knowledge.

thanks Shannon
sheikhamoepearl we are building on manitoulin island
Wow your videos are really helpful and shown in a way that someone with very little knowledge (me) can understand! Thanks!
Your videos are perfection. From Arizona USA, thanks so much for the concise and articulate teaching! And thanks to whomever is editing and filming - they are doing it right.
Great job Shannon. Thank you so much for the video, and for keeping it online all these years. It was a big help on my current shop project. The video was very well done, and much appreciated.
This was one of the most informative video's I've seen on framing so far.....Thank You.
Excellent, detailed, clear, concise video. I needed to tear down a wall and build a replacement, and this video game me all the detailed instructions I needed to do it properly. Thank you!
Glad to help
Probably the most in depth informative how to videos on RUclips. Great job
last night after watching the framing one, i built a basement wall in 45 minutes and it worked perfectly. Today, I watched this one and am about to build the doorway on another wall i built. You make this easy. I bougt a book from local DIY store and have sat on this project for months. Your video got me off the couch and motivated.
building a tiny home and you have helped tremendously!!
Shannon is the best. I've learned soooo much from him!
thanks
Very well thought out PRIOR to filming! Detailed, educational and easy to follow!
Nice Job Shannon!
Shannon, been watching your stuff for a while. I always appreciate the time you take to teach. Thanks!
Keep up the good work. You're a good teacher.
Shannon, great teacher and very well made videos. Love your channel.
Keep up the good work!
+speed488 Thanks for watching
These are the best instructional framing videos on youtube. Thanks for taking the time to put them together.
Shannon, I'll be helping my brother add some walls in his garage over the holidays. Great refresher class. Thanks.
Shannon, you put out such great, informative videos. : ) Thanks.
April, if YOU like his videos. I'll definitely watch him! I follow your vids and love them... I've even subbed Anne of all Trades because of you
Yeah, good vid's and no crap about how a 'woman' could do it just as well.
@@nomorelibs9228 GD broads.
@@nomorelibs9228 Why would he say that anyway?
Answered all my questions! You are the man, thank you!
I second that.
Daniel Jones third 👋🏻
These are fantastic videos and tutorials! Exactly what I've been needing, thank you and don't stop with your DIY home videos!
I have watched lots of other videos and yours seem to always address the details that are needed that the others gloss over. Great job, and I will definitely watch yours first as I encounter each stage of my projects. Thanks!
Love your videos; always learn something new from watching them. A can read the info 10x, and maybe I'll remember it. I watch your videos & not only do I remember it, I remember the logic/reasoning behind it because of your videos & explanations. Thanks for posting!
thats what we try to do. And I agree , I learn better by seeing things done as well.

Hi Shannon About to start my " Man Shed " shortly . Would like to thank you for your video clips "Build a shed "
Thank you so very much for taking your precious time to show us these videos .I may not respond to all but I have watched a couple at this point and your a teacher believe it or not .Thanks again.
It's great that good people like this man are giving us great information for free. Helps alot of us out. Thank you very much.
Nice work as always, good communication skills. I noticed that shovel in the background you must live in a cold climate like myself.
Yes I'm Canadian.
HouseImprovements Yes, I'm Mexican. Cheers fellow North American. I appreciate your videos.
hey there bud
@Hank Scorpio i think he's based in the prairies. maybe Alberta.
i have question how you consider bricks measurment before window marking
Hi Shannon
Great job but I'm surprised you didn't discuss crown up.
Cheers
No need to ever change that style of delivery. Really do explain everything so well. Many thanks!
Thanks for taking the time to create these videos! The information is invaluable and your delivery makes it very easy to digest. Thanks again.
It would help if diagrams are displayed during explation so I can see them in actual diagrams. Thanks
great video. I really like your laid-back teaching style but you TOTALLY lost me when you started talking about the window. for future reference, it would have really helped if you had an actual window in front of you so you could show us what/where a jamb is and how to measure it. as it is, I had to stop the video and open another tab so I could google window parts before I could continue this video.
elementary information
Yes that would help me as well as I've purchased reclaimed windows. They have an overhang in it's metal framing. But I'm hoping he has a focused window video too!!
Shannon is such an excellent teacher!!

Kevin Turnyanszki yep, which you learned as well. Just like every single other person. Are you one of those premaddona, negative all the time guys in the job site?
Thank you. I watched your video on decking and learned so much. My own decking project turned out more than ok as a result. Next big project is the shed, and this helps so much!
Great job young man! In today’s world you did a great job of providing information to door and window structural framing!
I wish you were my neighbor and had nothing to do today!!
It would be nice to do framing examples for refurbish work also. Refurbish brings lots of extra challenges like having to toe nail, demolition all of which is harder to deal with as opposed to new build.
Enjoy your work.
We will consider that.
Thanks Shannon! Very detailed. Well filmed. Well edited. Keep up the good work.
I can not begin to tell you how much I appreciate this video, Thank you.
can you use screws and no nails.. i would assume it will be stronger with screws
If it is structural framing, then no screws . Unless you use structural screws and not normal deck type screws.
Ok thanks
Daniel Villasenor what size nails for framing 2 x 4?
3 inch sir
I followed Shannon's instructions exactly; I've watched the video 4 times, and the air-conditioner in my car is still not working.
hwoods that's because you need to go home and make a peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwich.
You need the lube.
To be honest, your instructional videos are great, I"m starting a small project , and they helped me a lot. thank you soo much.
Im a contractor and always watch your videos first when I have questions. I can't tell you how many times you have helped. Always well-paced, thoroughly explained, and very easy to follow. Thanks!
I appreciate that!
Love the vids.
Informative with no stupid intro fluff and stories about your life and yapping about everything except what the video title says we’re clicking on.
Thank you ....this is how “how to” videos are supposed to be done.
Great videos guys. Shannon, you do an excellent job of explaining everything. keep up the good work.
Shannon your videos are real confidence builders...there is a pun in there somewhere. Thanks for this one especially. Very descriptive.
Shannon I watch your videos all the time and I really appreciate you sharing your extensive knowledge. Your tutorial on these videos is great and easy to follow. Kep up the good work, buddy.
You are the only one that explained how the header is built out of all the other videos!!! Thanks!!!
Thank you this helped me out a lot. I am strictly the DIY home owner and these video's are a blessing. Thank you!
The very best video on putting door and window headers on a wall frame. Thanks!
Shannon, your a Great teacher, Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video, I really learned a lot from you, thanks again!!
Thanks for posting the video, awesome step by step for the novice. Building a treehouse for the kids and this is great to watch as many times as I need too :). Thanks from Tennessee.
Great video, cleared up some questions I had about framing. Thank you very much for investing your time into this, look forward to more.
I'm been a carpenter for about 10 + years..this guy knows his stuff
Love, love your teaching style. Clear, succinct, prefect. Thank you.
Thank-you SO much for your excellent, clear directions & descriptions. Perfect balance between telling us what to do, how to do it, and why you need to do it!
I LOVE this channel. My go-to for renovations all-around.
Thank-you!
Thank you Andrea!
No fancy musing or intros or special effects here, just good old framing information and know how......... Great videos, big fan of all your creations. Thank you for all the education.
First time building a shed and I wanted to install several windows and two doors. Your VEDIO helps. Thanks
Excellent Instructor, no questions remaining.
Just wanted to say a big thank you for your wonderful instruction. My father was an incredible carpenter who was trained in England, but unfortunately, he was not as good at explaining his craft. Always wished I had taken more of an interest, but now with your calm and easy going instruction I am understanding so much better. You definitely have my admiration and a new Subscriber.
Thanks for subbing
Fantastic instruction, awesome clarity and teaching style, much appreciated.
Thanks, Shannon! Your videos are really helpful. Thanks again!
really good and clear, thank you for posting these!
Perfect , Love your explanations, You are making alot of guys (DYI) lives a whole lot easier!!!
I don't normally comment on videos, but I wanted to say thank you for teaching us! Subscribed.

This is so useful, feeling way more confident about throwing up my first stud wall. Thanks!! :)
Putting up my first window frame! Thanks for this awesome vid!
Awesome videos, very helpful, thanks a ton! You hit just the right balance of detail, explanation and brevity. Too bad people complain when they obviously didn't even watch or listen to the whole video. I guess some people just need a hug. Keep up the great work and vids!
great video Shannon you do a good job properly breaking down the process in each of your videos you definitely have been great help to me whenever I need to reaffirm something that I'm doing on the job site
Shannon, you do a great job clearly explaining things. Thank you.
+Ken Noah Thanks for the comment
Thanks. Been looking for some straight forward easy to follow instruction. Keep up the great work
I liked how you explained it. I could understand and you mentioned the fasteners also which is good. You never know how many you are supposed to put in.
I am listening in from Papua New Guinea. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills with us. Very helpful information. So simple and easy to follow.
I wanted to say thank you for you videos. I’m an instructor for a training program in Multi Family Housing. I have the students watch som of your videos after our lecture time and before we do hands on in the lab. This has been a help. Thank you again. Chuck Ketchum.
glad to help Chuck, we find many schools and training centres do the same thing as you do.
I know its been 7 years but Thanks, I really appreciate your channel.
EXACTLY what i was looking for. Great video, well explained. Many thanks for posting this
Just wanted to say I appreciate your videos, thanks.
Fantastic Video Shannon. Great explanation. You are awesome!!
Your videos are great! Thank you. We are building a 8x12 bunkie cabin on a gulf island in BC and your videos are so helpful as we are new to building. :)
Best video on framing window and door. Thank you.
VERY, VERY GOOD video. I have seen and built a few garages that the short studs were not used over the windows and doors but used 2 x 10's without problems but it probably all equals but also live in a far different area. Thanks again for the refresher. Bud
Thank you soo much. You are an awesome, patient, thorough teacher.
Exceptional video. Thank you for creating and posting!
plain and simple, YOU ROCK! thanks you very much. Keep up the great work!
I loved the video .. helped me to understand how an existing exterior wall and door frame (rough) is built. I have to replace a pre-hung door with another and I know what to expect now. Thank-you again, :-)
