Excellent video and technique!!! I have a suggestion. Make a couple of jigs out of 1x so you don’t have to drill through your square. Then you have the additional depth of guidance to keep the tools blade square to the fascia. Also can cut the jig on a bevel to install the fascia that way rather than a butt joint. More glue surface area too. Thanks for the great videos Paul. I watch a lot and learn so much even with my years of experience. Sharing skills and techniques with others is the best source for gaining knowledge. We all have something to learn from each other.
Great idea Paul!
I have one of those multi tools and has definitely become a favorite of mine.
My siblings and I took care of my father for the fours years after my mother passed. I sure understand what you’re living with, so nice she can stay in her home like my Dad did, it’s important that they don’t get put in new surroundings as it’s difficult to accept. You’re a good man!
I love this easy to follow video Paul ... Thank you for taking the extra effort and time to make things easy for so many awesome people out there!
I love you Brother all your magnificent family and give your beautiful mom a big hug for me
Thank you for the new video! You are a great teacher and I appreciate how you explain everything as you go along. :). OH, I got my first nail gun this past weekend . . . I LOVE IT! Got goose bumps when I got to use it building a shelf unit for the laundry. I can't wait to build more things soon!
You have a gift for teaching! everything it's so simple, clear and to the point! I am learning so much! thank you so much for sharing!
Perfect timing for this video. I have a couple of small sections that need serious attention and I was dreading having to replace everything or pay to have it done. I appreciate you doing this so much. I'll be looking forward to the next one.
Ty Hamblin I’m really glad I could help buddy. I will work on the other video real soon, you will be amazed at how simple it is to make it look seamless. Be safe out there and thanks for watching!
Many thanks for a great hack.
Great tip using the squares to make cuts straight. I just went out to my shed and drilled holes in mine. Thanks
Brilliant idea with the square. Definitely stealing that one. Thanks!
And I was just saying that I needed to work on my facia this quarantine. Hope u and your family are safe. Thanks Paul. Great vid.
Thanks for the tip. Though I don't need this info today, at some point it may be useful. My favorite part of the video is the end where you mentioned the walk-in tube company. It was sincere. I work with a skilled nursing facility, and have come to realize if we live long enough, many of us may require some form of assistance, but we want to maintain our independence and dignity.
Peace to you and your family.
Thank you once again Paul, there's so many different things that can be done with that great idea 👍🏽
DOE Home Improvement LLC. Yeah your imagination can go everywhere with it, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch my friend! Be safe and thanks again!
Love watching your videos! Makes me feel like I can do it. Thank you!
Good morning Deanna, I'm sure you cand do it and probably better than me. Thank you for taking the time to watch and especially commenting me! Be safe and have a good daay!
Brilliant! I used multi-tool to cut some fascia recently but didn't think to attach the speed square to the fascia.
Saludos Paul thank you for taking the time to do your videos.
Good stuff Paul. Thanks and stay safe.
Hey Paul, thanks for sharing another great video. Hope you and your family are staying safe and well.
Great tips and tricks! Thank you
I've been doing all kinds of small projects around the house during quarantine and putting my Cross X Step to work! Thx Paul!
Good morning Brady, I’m really glad you’re getting use out of that ladder! I use mine all the time buddy. Things are kind of crazy down in New Orleans with his Covid but we’ll get through it. I hope you guys are doing well, be safe and I’ll talk to you later!
DITTO what Ty just said !
😁👍YOU ARE "Th' MAN" !!!👍😁
All love and blessings to you & yours from me & mine !!!
Pretty slick way to do that. Genius.
Hi David, it's good to hear from you my friend! Thanks for taking the time to comment and be safe!
Great video. That fix right there can help with a lot of projects. Thanks
I like that! Learn something new from you every time I watch! Stay safe Paul!
Hi John, it's always good to hear from you buddy, I hope you and your family are doing well. Thank you for keeping in touch and be safe!
Wow, I love simple hacks from pros. They save so much time.
Paul, Excellent Video!
Glad to see a new video
Dude ....this is where it's at ! Thank you so much !!°°°
That's a sweet pro tip!
Thanks my brother but your talent is unmatched! StoneCoat is the best..........
Paul - I love this tip! Most excellent your a genius
Yeah but these supplys only work on 2x8 and bigger unless you cut the square
Thanks for sharing ☺️
Great Homeowners Tip
Contractors cut at 45° to split a rafter tail 🧐
Always looking for your next video 😉
Awesome carpenter hack with those speed squares. Hope all is well for you and the family during these times. God bless.
Hi Tiny, how have you been buddy? Sorry it took so long to get a video out, it's been a tough month for everybody. We will all get past this and we will be stronger when it's over. Be safe my friend and God bless you and your family!
Sorry Tony, I was at work when I sent you this and didn’t realize I put I instead of an o. The letters on this are so small LOL
!
Hey stay safe at work brother! Thanks for another great video.
Nice tip Paul. Thanks
Genius! I have some that needs\will need replacing soon. no I ma not dreading it as much. Thank you again, sir!
Great trick to help get straight lines. Maybe we had a bad camera angle; to me it looks like the reason why they are have problems with rot in areas is because their drip edge is way to close to the fascia in the first place. I'd offer to help fix that so they don't have the problem again the in the future.
Hi Craig, you will see on the future video that the problem was on the rake of the house. There is a step up of about 6 inches from one roof to another at the rake. Fascia board was sitting on top of the roof and it was pine. The board was rotted from sitting on the roof and getting debris from trees. This caused water to run behind the flashing and into the soffit. I fixed it on another video and you will see that soon. Thank you for taking the time to watch and for your input, I really appreciate that. Have a great day and be safe out there!
kick out flashing to divert water away from the facia
Awesome tip...thanks!
don you just love oscilating tools. I stumbled up on using one, and fell in love
Good job. Great tips.
Thank you Simon, be safe buddy!
A great trick, I will use that one, nice job!
Good morning Jay, thank you for taking the time to watch my video. If you want you can use one square, I show 2 of them so people that are new at it can make it foolproof. Have a good day and be safe!
Clean, Faster and Great job 👍🏼
Hi Ted, thaks buddy and be safe!
Great tips.
Absolute genius Paul
Hello from the uk Paul 👍great tip, i would never have thought of it but will use it from now on. Thanks mate. Phill
great tip, thanks Paul. Personally I would be a little uneasy with the 18 gauge brads for fascia though.
Its the glue that holds it in place, like most any wood working the glue is stronger than the wood itself.
Thanks Paul good tip.
Thank you Douglass, I really appreciate you! Be safe!
Ow that the facia is repaired, what brand of gutter guards to you recommend?
Hey Paul!
Can this same technique be used on 2x8? The principal is the same, just a thicker board, or is there a reason why the previous installer cut the facia at 45° & mitered angle at the seam?
Thx in advance and love your thoughtfulness and ingenuity in your videos!
Great video! I have a job doing this tomorrow.
you have saved me lots of time....Thank you....
Great content. Thanks
Hi Paul, really like your how to videos, when you were framing the shed did you use regular size framing studs or did you downsize the shed? Thanks
I made it a standard size it was 8 foot wide and 12 foot deep my walls were 8 feet high. I just showed the mini version so you could see close-ups of how I built it. Thanks and have a happy Thanksgiving!
Awesome 😎 Paul!!
Awesome content!
Paul, Did you drill the corner holes into your speed square or is there a speed square that comes with those holes already drilled? Thanks for the great videos.
This is a great hack, I’ve been in the trades for awhile, and never seen that. Thank you
I have termite damage on fascia and some rafter tails on front section of my house under tile roof.
Is it better to replace all pieces for that section in case termite got into them that we cannot tell?
It will cost more but better do it now since they have to remove roof tiles first to replace fascia and rafters.
What do you think?
Of course some contractors just recommend replace what you see as damaged but not all.
Thx. Awesome tip!
I'm curious about the difference between making them 45 degree cuts and glue. Also, are you nailing into the rafter ends? 18 Guage is a little small in my opinion. I use galvy 15 Guage. Cool idea with the squares!! Seems time consuming but I'm interesting in seeing how this works out
Great tip!
Paul, super neat and easy Job. Ta.
Thank you. I have 2x6 fascia over rafters and a few that are damaged at the joints. The roofers did not center the joints with the rafter. Your method is perfect, what brand blade you used?
Clever. Gotta love the multi tool.
You the MAN Paul
How did you cut the grooves in the back of the fascia for the soffit? Dado, router or multiple passes with a circular saw. Thanks Paul. Currently replacing 32 feet of 1"x6" fascia and 8 feet of 2"x6" sub fascia at the corner to support the corner of roof(we have 2 foot soffit on our house) Thanks Paul.
Wow! Thanks
You are the man.
Paul!!! I feel like I haven't seen a video of yours in a long time. Hows your brothers recovery going?
Hi Chad, thanks for asking. Danny is a tough guy and he’s pulling through. Unfortunately he will not be able to come back to the fire department on the line but hopefully something will be available to him. I am been very busy myself because my mother is not doing real well so I spend a lot of time on my days off with her. You haven’t seen my videos because I haven’t posted in over a month but I Have been working on some projects that need to be edited and posted so I should start back up pretty soon. Take care my friend and be safe!
@@paulstoolbox sorry to hear your moms not doing well we will pray for her.
grate tip. thanks.
Thank you so much, I needed to know this information TODAY! One other thing that I would like to ask is what you would do if there was no 2x6 sub facia sitting behind the facia board to attach to? In California it seems that there is no sub facia sitting behind our facia boards. That 1x6 facia board is attached to 2x4's coming from the roof every 24 inches. Can you also show an easy way to replace a rotten corner?
Paul- what brand multi tool blades do you recommend? Most I buy dull out in 30 seconds
EngineerMike F I use mostly Rockwell blades but I must be honest I have not seen any that totally stand out in my mind. They all cut well when you first get them. I find my wood blades from Rockwell last if they don’t hit A nail and I find that the carbide blades work well on nails but not great on wood. I really like my Rockwell multitool though. I find it much better than the Ridged that I had prior to this one but I don’t know how well the Dewalt works. I like the design of the quick connect on a Dewalt but I’ve never tried it because my Rockwell has given me great service. Wish I could help you more, if you find a good blade from a company please let me know. Have a great day and be safe out there!
@@paulstoolbox Thanks Paul for the courtesy of a reply. If there is a HUGE opportunity in tool works, I think its multi-blades that last. They're still disposable, but professionals & heavy hitting DIY'ers would pay up to avoid constant blade changes. Thanks again for great content
Good job.easy as 1 2 3.
Can you fix my house? Lol😘 love your vids, very helpful! Thank you!!!
Hey Paul, are you in TRT/HRT protocol? lookin good! late 50's here noticing some level changes. curious your thoughts! great video btw, about to replace my fascia!
Thanks Brother!
Cool trick
Thanks my friend, I really appreciate you taking the time to watch. Be safe out there!
How do you do that if you have gutters with spike and farrel
Great video but would appreciate the dubbed music volume to be lower. Thanks for the helpful video!
Excellent
How do you remove sections of the fascia behind seamless gutters? I need to replace rotted fascia behind the gutter on both sides of a valley. The gutters wrap around the house on other inside (valley) and outside corners. I’m afraid that I would destroy the gutters if I try and remove them.
Anyone know what blade he’s using on the isolating saw to cut that wood because I never had any luck with one
I do that except I use a piece of mitered fascia as my guide so I get a lapped mitre.
How to get rounded porch Collum’s that are rough and pitted?
I like the trick but I have a question. Cant you just use your multi tool and chisel around the lower nail head, pry it out, and then take your pry bar to pull out fascia slightly, and then slip a sawzall to clip off the top nail to the fascia all the while leaving the drip edge in place? Curious of your thoughts
Hi Ryan, you make a good point , but this video is showing how to remove a section for repairs without having to take a full length of fascia off. One problem you may encounter is trying not to damage the shingles with a reciprocating saw. The stroke of the blade is fairly long and you could possibly puncture the shingles while attempting to cut the top nails, If I am removing the entire length, I tap the bottom out with a hammer and slip a flat bar behind the fascia creating a gap. Then I will tap the fascia back in place until the mail is exposed. Once the nail pushes through the face, I’ll pull it from the front, thus allowing me to remove the fascia. I like the way you think! Have a great day and thanks for sharing another option.
@@paulstoolbox you bet and thank you love the channel
What was the purpose of drilling the holes in the board in the first part of the video?what did you do with that first board? I need to replace sections of fascia board (1x4)on my shed but i am afraid i will have to take the whole thing off. Probably ruin the good pieces in the process. Lol. Dont have a multi tool. Thought about trying to cut it with a sawzall but not sure i can get a straight cut , and get the cut behind the drip edge, although there is space between fascia and drip edge
Great trick getting that straight cut on the skill saw using the speed square as a guide👍
Slick!
Thanks
Cool man!
thanks. Does this glue work with pvc?
How to replace the edge like the angle fascia corner of your house?
You the man
I’m just sharing info my friend, you are the man!
Thanks!
Great tips.(most of the time) lol
Did you drill some holes in your square?
Why not bevel the vertical joints?
Thanks for the video but you don’t need the music, it’s distracting.
Thank you Andy For taking the time to watch and comment me I really appreciate you. The music situation is always a dilemma for me, I don’t like to have loud sounds from the Tools on my video because some people have complained about that so I made it silent. Many people complained about it being silent and thought I had something wrong with my videos so I started with different music. It’s very difficult to put music on RUclips because I have paid for certain tracks and RUclips has flagged me because somebody complained about the music saying it was theirs. I then had to get my certificate send it in with an explanation and go through hoops to get my videos back up with monetization. I do my best to try to keep everyone happy but I hate to tell you it’s tough buddy. I just hope you can get good information from my videos.
@@paulstoolbox Thanks for the explanation, Paul. I was wondering about the music thing, too. Never considered the licensing issue. That probably is true for a lot of us who aren't involved in video production.
Love your work...keep up the great job!
Music is OK but it needs to be dialed back a few decibels. It gave me an instant headache being so loud. Great tutorial though.
Can you come and fix my roof? 😅🤣😂
Does anyone know what guage nails he uses for fascia ?
Always prime your endgrain
The music if REALLY LOUD. It's driving me CRAZY!!!!!!!!!! It REALLY detracts from your GOOD content.
Sorry, I do my best to keep the saw noises and music low. I do everything myself so I sometimes make mistakes.
@@paulstoolbox No problem. I was in a panic because I was having trouble cutting a bevel on a facial board. I wanted to find a video just on bevel cuts on facia boards. The rain was on the way. We had a short shower and a big one may still roll in. I got the facia board up but I left one off. It's not the first time it rained with a facia board down. I have to do all of my house work myself of pay for it. I made a jig that I nailed to one of my tall saw horses to hold the other end of the board. It worked and the it backed out of the saw horse when I tried to move it. Tomorrow I hope to finish up the facia. I am NOT a carpenter. I am simply a homeowner looking a teaching video. So I appreciate what you do even though your video wasn't quite what I was looking for. I'd be lost without RUclips how to videos. At least I have a base of knowledge and tools. A lot of people don't even have that.
Priming backside of wood not important?
What happens when the bottom of your facia is not square?
You could use a torpedo level to mark a plumb line and screw the square in place. You can use one square if you are careful. Thanks!
👍
That speed square move was priceless. You got you a true subscriber buddy🙌🏿
Thank you my friend, have a great night!
I love your techniques, great instructions. But the music has got to go. Very distracting.
