This oak accent wall isn't an easy install. There are 7 electrical boxes to cut in and the stakes are high... Patreon - / fortressfinewoodworks Fortress Shop - unlockfortress...
That. And those wall panels do not cost 1000's $ each 😂😂😂😂 maybe 250$ max, and shouldn't be doing that work if you're gonna mess up the entire house anyways
Well youre a finish carpenter and shouldnt be making rookie measuemring mistakes to start. Secondly those wall panels may cost 1000's for the entire job, but are you really going to cut them all wrong? Whats the max cost on 1 fabricated sheet? 250$ max? So cutting wrong would cost 250$ not 1000's$. Again if youre gonna cut every panel wrong, youre definately in the wrong business.
Let's do the math. The total cost was 7,000$ with 9 panels. But that's the cost of making all 9 panels together. If I miscut one, I have to reinvest time into buying the lumber again, milling it, finishing it, assembling it into a panel, returning to the residence, and finally installing it. So yes, thousands. Not to mention, it would put me behind on the next job which would be money I'm not making. So you can add that into the total.
Probably easier to have the electrician move the outlet if the holes didn’t line up.

I agree with that. Thanks for watching!
Nice work. Hopefully the client changes the black cover plates out for white oak covers.
We think the black goes perfectly with the door and TV. The full length video is coming so stay tuned! Thanks!
Why spend so much on nice accent panels but use cheap plastic plates? Use dark brushed or polished metal finish plates.
Because they match the door that they are right next to
Why put up cheap looking plastic switch plates? I'd look into brushed steel

As a drywall guy, I cannot imagine doing that with would. I mean, I can, but I don't want to. Leave it to the taper
I did it with drywall for years, so maybe that's where my practice comes in. But I can't just mud it later
@@FortressFineWoodworks I know. Not having the taper to fall back on would be scary, and I'm the taper. I don't want to fix it, but at least I can
Damn no video of building the panels?
It's coming! Next video. It's just a lot of footage to edit
Perfect aas always nice to toot your own horn😮
If you watch my full length videos, you'll see that it's not always a perfect journey getting there though

@@FortressFineWoodworks ok you made it all yourself from scratch, well badass. I can understand how they are 900$ panels after labor. Great work
I appreciate that. Thanks for the comment and I hope to see you back
You could use a bunch of cardboard to make a template....
That's a great idea, and I have done that. Although this was a 9 foot ceiling so I'd have to save up quite a few amazon boxes!
Will there be a video on these panels?
Yes it's the next video coming in a week or two
I’d probably spend an entire day remeasuring before I felt confident to cut into those 😅
Haha an entire day measuring 150 times before you go for it! Smart idea
These videos are such a lie. 1 of those boards does not cost 1000's 😂😂😂😂 this is a scam
I did the math on your last post. I respect your opinion, and thank you for the engagement!
@FortressFineWoodworks I appreciate your response. Also I have to add, great work!
