Hey Gang, the next video is going to be an "Ask Me Anything" style overview of the house, and a discussion of what's next now that we're close to the finish line. Let me know if there are any questions you want answered. Thanks!
You must really trust those painters to leave all those beautiful kitchen cabinets uncovered while they worked! : ) The finished product looks awesome.
As someone who's spent most of her life in 1940s west coast houses, I must compliment you on all your trim. Fit perfectly in with your house, in all senses of the word!
I read this wrong the first time, and genuinely said to myself, "Wow! An 80 year old woman subscriber is way outside his main demographic". Lol. I'm such a dummy.
@@MrQuickLine lol, no, my houses have always been anywhere from quite a bit to quite considerably older than I am. Except that one time I lived in a condo built in the late 90s.
The good thing when you paint an house where you are going to live in yourself is that you can choose bold colours that you like, you are not limited to the boring designer's grey pallet.
When i saw that first green, I was thinking institutional green, no. So glad you changed it to that lovely shade.❤ The red is amazing, and bringing it down hides any wobbly walls! Win-win.
I am always excited to see your new videos come up in the feed. It's amazing to see someone put so much thought and care into trim work and to be able to learn from them. I think trim completely changes the way a space feels
Choosing paint is tricky, especially when you want bold colors. The Dr. Seuss green was a but much but the toned down green is amazing. 💚 And I LOVE the orange ceiling. 🧡
When I cope molding i make a big back bevel and use some adhesive backed 120 sand paper stuck to a piece of molding to quickly sand a tight fit. Works a treat.
You gotta look into the flappy paddle on on an angle grinder, it is so fast. If you don't have a steady hand, it might not be the best but it saves so much time.
We had to replace moldings on a 3 window bay where the angles were not the same from one face to another and the angles at the floor were not exactly the angles at the ceiling. None of them were exactly 45° or 22.5°. I laid a piece of paper along the wall with the corner of the paper at the inside corner of the wall. Then I laid another paper coming in to the corner from the other side of the angle. Glued the papers together so the angle of the paper was exactly the same as the wall. Folded the paper to divide the angle and set my miter box to that angle. All the angles came out very close. Thanks for showing this video.
First off, Congrats on expecting. Second, as someone born at Swedish Hospital in a long past December, I recommend it. I also had nephews born at Northgate Hospital and that worked well too. Actually, one was born on the way and in the parking lot, which saves a LOT of money. Good luck!
Ahhh... takes me back eight years to when I did our baseboards (or skirting boards as we call them in the UK). It also reminded me that I need to go back and fix that bit of board with a huge gap bodged with caulk! Great job as usual! :)
29:10 A tip I learned from a good friend of mine is to prime all the trim before installing it. It does two things: 1: saves you crawling around priming baseboard 2: lets you see your measure marks a bit easier
You did an awesome job on the trim work. The only thing I saw that was tough to watch was you coping. I have been doing trim work and building since I left the Marine Corps in 1966 the next spring I started back building and I learned the easier way to cope is standing upright and sawing down in the trim with the finish side up. It is easier to cut and backbevel at the same time. I'm 78 now and still working in the shop building cabinets and furniture. If you love working with wood and creating projects then it's not working it's just fun. You did a super job on the whole house remodel and I would not change a thing. Keep up doing what you do and you'll always enjoy creating. There's nothing better then to look at a finished project.
I saw the same thing and I've been a trim carpenter for over 50 years. Turn the coping saw blade around with teeth facing away from handle, cut from top (easier to hold down and back bevel) and all grain blowouts are on the backside of trim. I also never double cope anymore. Tack a 2 foot piece on wall cope to it but don't nail the first 3 or 4 feet then remove tacked piece and last piece is cope to square like all the others. I do crown molding right to left and baseboard left to right as I'm right handed and prefer to cope those ends.
Great decision to bring in professional painters, especially with a baby on the way. The whole place looks magnificent. All ready for the family to move in. Well done.
Good job Michael! I've thoroughly enjoyed the journey and can't wait to see you bring the new baby home to this place! That will complete it as a home!
Yes!!! So excited about this, very educational! My house is 1970’s with the original trim I’d like to eventually replace parts of. Love the color on the trim and ceiling! Very mid mod, bright and just fits your home. The trim makes the space, it’s elegant yet simple and seems to ground the home. Love the colors and now seeing the cabinetry surrounded by that bright white after the pop of red ceiling in the mud room it just all goes. It’s like you knew what you were doing ;) and ps: after stripping/sanding rotting basement windows and rebuilding one’s rotting sash I’ve learned oil based is everything! I prefer it any day to water based because it clings almost soaks into bare wood and smoothes out imperfections
The house is now very much becoming a home. Love your work and enthusiastic attitude towards any of your builds particularly this massive project. Regards from Sydney Australia
Not trying to throw shade at other makers on RUclips, but I love the design choices you and Dave Picciuto make. Some of these other dudes think a primary color will get their man card taken away. Love the way this place is shaping up!
Spectacular! Just goes to show you what a perfectly researched and executed design looks like. The craftsmanship is outstanding and will be enjoyed for years to come. Good job!
Wow 😍😍😍💚that's just awesome the house keeps getting more beautiful. I wish I could come and see it in person ❤️❤️. I really love your hard work and it amuses me how patient you are while working on a project. Waiting for more videos. 😻🌹🌹Lots of Love and respect from Oman.
Your trim looks gorgeous but we all knew it would before we even watched the video. Love those meaty window stools. And I knew you’d pick stunning colors but I could not have predicted these choices. I am indeed stunned! Can’t wait to see how you and your wife decorate the finished rooms. I’m so inspired.
Awesome work. Got a few reno's behind me, and I know the pain of finish work. Love the comment, "This is my first cope cut... don't judge me." LOL - 'Sorry, Sir, this is the internet.' So many awesome painting tips and info in this! I really was intrigued by the idea of a shellac-based primer - ?? - could you do some later content on that? I've never, ever been pleased with any kind of primer, mainly because it never does what it's supposed to, even the higher-dollar stuff. Good call on revising that green, dude. And, as someone else noted, the trick of painting a 'tray' down from the ceiling and hiding the corner is genius.
Those moulding came out so well!!! When I make that coping cut I use an angle grinder with a flap wheel on it, but I wouldn’t recommend it for cutting indoors. It’s fast but messy!
I like using a flap disc when I do coping. Easy peasy. Then I leave the saw at 45 and turn the piece to the other fence of the saw that way it leaves a sharp edge to butt against your board that's already there.
That Bin primer is also great for sealing torn drywall paper (like if you've just removed wallpaper and it took the top layer of the drywall off or got knicked). Thanks be to Vancouver Carpenter for that one!
I used to do a lot of ceiling trim with coped cuts. Depending on the moulding, I would often just carve the curvy parts with a sharp utility knife. Much faster and less climbing up and down the ladder on tall ceilings.
That red in the Mud room is awesome. I love it. On camera it does feel like it fights the white below it. The white you have chosen might have a cast to it that doesn't work with the Red or it could be that the room feels unbalanced with the heavy colour on top and a light colour on the bottom. A similar grey to what you put in your bathroom might fix that but could make the room too dark. How you furnish the room will also change the look. And what I'm seeing could all just be in the camera or my monitor though.
Wait late to the video! It came in when lunch was already half over so the window trim had to wait until after the candy munchers had come. It looks great! Is this really the end of the series? It’s hard to believe that we’re already at the painting stage.
Kind of funny that I started changing the baseboards and casings in my house this morning and when I go to take a break this video was at the top of my RUclips. I'm doing similar window sills to yours but I'm going with craftsman style baseboards and casings.
Michael, your work is top notch, but that tip from your painter. Wow. I've never thought about oil based primer and paint that way. Definitely going to try that when I redo our laundry room! Shirt ordered too! Thanks man!
I dropped the coping saw and picked up the cordless angle grinder with a flap disk. Same process of cutting the 45 then following the profile with the grinder to create the cope.
We did one room of trip/molding using cope cuts and I will never do it again. We just spent a ton of time dialing in the saw's angle. But yours looks great. I just didn't have the patience for it. Cannot wait to see what the end result of that fireplace looks like.
To be honest, the color itself isn't too bad! It just wouldn't go well with white walls. Although, some matching eccentric furniture would really bring the look together!
For the cope cuts on off angle corners, like your bay window, I always bisect the angle just like you would for a miter, so I would cut 45 degrees on the full length piece, and then cut a 22.5 on the coped part. That gives the illusion of the inside miter. If you cut the cope at a 45 the angle of intersection is not bisecting the angle of the walls. Just my $0.02
Shout out to Richard or Grayson (not sure which of them he was) they were really good on camera. Great tip from them. And kudos to them for being gracious.
No red - safety cone orange. The other colors are lovely, but very Autumn. I think the sage green will be nice all year long and the pumpkin is a pretty color. The most important thing is how you like the colors. It's your house.
I feel like reducing the width on the shelf for the kitchen sink window was a missed opportunity. In my old house I had a really deep window sill where the sink was and it was extremely useful storage that was out of the way but a close reach. I usually put my salt & pepper grinder and some commonly used spices up there, along with a lighter and a couple other things.
At first I was thinking WTF that's insane? Green modeling and red ceiling. But seeing that 1) its a different part of the house 2) the view of the mud room from either side. It matches the design and fits the house.
Thanks! It'll get even better once the furniture is in. The baby room might even get some murals done and the bath is going to have red accents to match the mudroom. It's going to be cool!
Honestly dont need 16g nails in outside mitres, just glue them and use 23g to avoid what we see at 9:45 , even shorter 18 gauge would be a better choice, but glue is the main thing
Coming to the end feels great, doesn't it?! I've been doing crown, base, and casings the last few days on a reno I've been working on for months. I coped my crown but decided to miter all my base. I use an angle finder to help dial it in. Now watching you do it, I feel I would have saved some time to cope more. The paint design is great! Was this your and Ashley"s plan or did the painters help steer in the layout?
I thought it was coming to watch a trimming video and it turns out I came to get an education and find out that what I've been referring to the "window sill" the entire 52 years of my existence is actually called the stool 🤣🤣🤣
I gotta say Mr ALM I would NEVER roll a cabinet door. I gotta say, I do like the painters energy. I kinda bring that when I’m talking to my clients. But PLEASE don’t roll cabinets. Spray them!!!
Laughing to myself while thinking about how I replaced all the trim in my house where none of the drywall matched the door jambs. caulk, caulk everywhere.
Micheal! Beautiful work it’s gonna be a beautiful house. One question did you caulk the molding or did the painters? And I am with you the older I get the more value I see in having professional painters do that work. In the past it just seemed easy enough that I could do it, but I did it poorly! The pros are the way.
Love the video! Side question- is the kapex with UG stand worth it? The supports seem to be very shallow, is it only good for trim? They’re $300 off recently and was thinking about getting it but still $2200 so not sure if it’s worth it
Hey Gang, the next video is going to be an "Ask Me Anything" style overview of the house, and a discussion of what's next now that we're close to the finish line. Let me know if there are any questions you want answered. Thanks!

I was cracking up when the painter was talking about what he would do if he was painting the cabinets.

I am the kind of person who needs a visually calm environment, but it’s fun to see someone doing bold colors.
Absolutely love the combination of the bathroom grey and mudroom watermelon colours. And congrats on the beautiful molding work 🙌
The way he was talking to you about paint tells you all you needed to know if you had any doubts you hired the right guys.
The red ceiling with the dark grey and the tile of the bathroom look amazing!
Great decision to bring in professional painters, especially with a baby on the way. The whole place looks magnificent. All ready for the family to move in. Well done.
You know how it’s a good video? I got lost in time, I couldn’t tell you how long it was. Amazing work.
This channel always delivers on the satisfaction of a job well done.

10/10 for coping the skirting board, it's the only way to do it and anyone who disagrees is, well, wrong. Love your channel Michael
Looking great! Best of luck with the baby, hope it all goes smoothly. Prepare for life to become a blur!
Thanks! This year has already been a blur 😂
The house is now very much becoming a home. Love your work and enthusiastic attitude towards any of your builds particularly this massive project.

Michael, Be Proud - you've definately earned it!
The ceiling paint is nice, I have a yellow ceiling in my bedroom but that is vibrant.
Not trying to throw shade at other makers on RUclips, but I love the design choices you and Dave Picciuto make. Some of these other dudes think a primary color will get their man card taken away. Love the way this place is shaping up!

Ho, ho, ho.... This is looking amazing. It's so nice, seeing everything come together when the finishing goes on.
This whole series has me fantasizing about what I would want in my house, if I ever have one. Someday....
32:57 not going to lie as soon as I saw this color my HEART SANK!!! I was like WOW😮😮😮

Good call on revising that green, dude. And, as someone else noted, the trick of painting a 'tray' down from the ceiling and hiding the corner is genius.
Instead of using a rasp, I like to use a Dremel tool with a small cylindrical sanding head. You hardly have to work at it.
I really enjoy watching you teach, and describe what you are doing.
Looks AWESOME!! Been following for years and this was a cool series for sure.
Thanks!! I've enjoyed working on the house and I'm definitely ready to go back into the shop for some new woodworking experiments.
@@MichaelAlm I can't wait I really enjoy your projects. They always get me thinking about stuff to do in my shop.
Your work is absolutely over the top! You also do a great job of relaying how to do some difficult work. Thank you.
Those moulding came out so well!!! When I make that coping cut I use an angle grinder with a flap wheel on it, but I wouldn’t recommend it for cutting indoors. It’s fast but messy!
What a journey, and what stories you'll have to tell little Alm about what took place the year before they arrived! Congrats on a job well done!

Good to know!
As a plant lady you killed me when you cut down the kitchen window sill lol
That red in the Mud room is awesome. I love it. On camera it does feel like it fights the white below it.

The guy's got skills! 😎 haha... Jus kidding. You did a good job. And I enjoy watching you do what I don't have the space to do! Take care....
Congratulations, that looks awesome.
Glue on the outside corners of the baseboard will help as the wood dries out.
Really Beautiful; nice job Michael.
Love the pops of color!
They were Ashley's ideas and I love them too!
Very nice work! Love the mudroom color
OMG the second I saw that first bit of green I almost puked. Don't scare me like that!! Looks awesome Michael!
Hahaha!
To be honest, the color itself isn't too bad! It just wouldn't go well with white walls. Although, some matching eccentric furniture would really bring the look together!
I think that color is lovely, but I'm not sure I'd want it on the trim or the walls. Pillows, yes.
I thought you were going for CHOMPS bag colors.
Looks great. Kudos.
I really love the watermelon-y ceiling. It adds a lot of personality yet still seems to fit with the age of the house.
For the cope cuts on off angle corners, like your bay window, I always bisect the angle just like you would for a miter, so I would cut 45 degrees on the full length piece, and then cut a 22.5 on the coped part. That gives the illusion of the inside miter. If you cut the cope at a 45 the angle of intersection is not bisecting the angle of the walls. Just my $0.02
Shout out to Richard or Grayson (not sure which of them he was) they were really good on camera. Great tip from them. And kudos to them for being gracious.
Jalepano! Both are good though. Solid instructional on baseboards and trim. Keep it up!
Simply beautiful!
No red - safety cone orange. The other colors are lovely, but very Autumn. I think the sage green will be nice all year long and the pumpkin is a pretty color. The most important thing is how you like the colors. It's your house.
When using the coping saw try to go slower but use the full length of the blade. You should have more control that way. Hope it helps.
Very helpful, thanks!
@@MichaelAlm Happy to help.
When I saw that first green I was like HOLY HELL! lol. But love the final color and really like that bathroom color
I feel like reducing the width on the shelf for the kitchen sink window was a missed opportunity. In my old house I had a really deep window sill where the sink was and it was extremely useful storage that was out of the way but a close reach. I usually put my salt & pepper grinder and some commonly used spices up there, along with a lighter and a couple other things.
That first green was hilarious
🤣
Of course Richard called a cigar roller a “weenie roller.” 😂
He did save the day with the green though.
Those are some bold colours
Loved the video! Amused though that the thumbnail has changed like 3x since I viewed it 😂
Thanks! I have an ABC test going on the thumb, so it does that for a few hours. Which do you prefer? 😂
Man, the vibrant red ceiling is so nice behind the bathroom anthrazit. Love that.
At first I was thinking WTF that's insane? Green modeling and red ceiling. But seeing that 1) its a different part of the house 2) the view of the mud room from either side. It matches the design and fits the house.
Thanks! It'll get even better once the furniture is in. The baby room might even get some murals done and the bath is going to have red accents to match the mudroom. It's going to be cool!
THANKS FOR ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO
Honestly dont need 16g nails in outside mitres, just glue them and use 23g to avoid what we see at 9:45 , even shorter 18 gauge would be a better choice, but glue is the main thing
Coming to the end feels great, doesn't it?! I've been doing crown, base, and casings the last few days on a reno I've been working on for months. I coped my crown but decided to miter all my base. I use an angle finder to help dial it in. Now watching you do it, I feel I would have saved some time to cope more.
The paint design is great! Was this your and Ashley"s plan or did the painters help steer in the layout?
36:12 job is 99.9% perfect but that missed caulk joint would drive me bonkers!
Angle grinder with sanding disc to cope. Dusty but timesaver
Beautiful work. I love how those baseboard have no quarter round trim. I have an absolute aversion to those!
Thank you! I'm so glad we didn't need quarter round. I also hate it, and the house used to have it before the flooring guys filled in the gaps. 😅
Beautiful!
Never could get the hang of coping saws. I ended up using a multi tool to cope, or even a jigsaw (if you're careful with it).
It takes some time to get used to for sure.
That green 😂 I was genuinely shocked and wondering if that is some sort of weird primer, I didn't understand
Nice job!
I thought it was coming to watch a trimming video and it turns out I came to get an education and find out that what I've been referring to the "window sill" the entire 52 years of my existence is actually called the stool 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha! Don't worry I learned it recently too
Its got everything an old house has, including completely wacky, what were they thinking? color choices!
wow that first green was really green :)
I gotta say Mr ALM I would NEVER roll a cabinet door. I gotta say, I do like the painters energy. I kinda bring that when I’m talking to my clients. But PLEASE don’t roll cabinets. Spray them!!!
Laughing to myself while thinking about how I replaced all the trim in my house where none of the drywall matched the door jambs. caulk, caulk everywhere.
Looks Great, not sure about that red though... I hate doing trim
Plus use a jig saw with a very thin blade for doing coping way faster
Micheal! Beautiful work it’s gonna be a beautiful house. One question did you caulk the molding or did the painters? And I am with you the older I get the more value I see in having professional painters do that work. In the past it just seemed easy enough that I could do it, but I did it poorly! The pros are the way.
Thanks! The painters did all the caulking
Love the video!
Side question- is the kapex with UG stand worth it? The supports seem to be very shallow, is it only good for trim?
They’re $300 off recently and was thinking about getting it but still $2200 so not sure if it’s worth it
Very Cool!
