    That was pretty cool getting a shout out. My kids started screaming. They told me I was also now a famous RUclipsr. I had to laugh.
    You definitely did simplify the process. There are for sure much more complicated ways of doing it.
    Have fun enjoying the rest of your Coronavacation.

    Totally not even what I'm going to be doing but that is just so cool. I was just looking for how to install long plywood boards on a curve van roof without it falling off. So I won't be working with one big piece whatsoever but that was just really cool to see. In fact I don't even know exactly what I just watched all I know is that the math worked. Bravo.

    We used to eyeball 1 inch PVC pipe for our arches. Looking back maybe it wasn’t the most perfect method but it was fast and never had a complaint

    • @adrianuk8102
      @adrianuk8102 Год назад

      There’s easier way of creating that arch, as a brickie we used to cut boards to the width of the door or window, find the middle and then run the pencil attached to string line around the top. 5 min job and perfect arch every time 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • @phildev74
    @phildev74 13 дней назад

    I find that it goes smoother for me if I hold the pencil in one hand and put my other on the wood with the pencil between my middle and pointer fingers. Doing this helps keep the string from slipping off the pencil.

    Hey Matt, i enjoy the videos you're doing great. Quick question, I'm new to the construction game and I'm in a situation where I'm being trained for a construction management position with little existing experience. What would you suggest to be a great learning point for the basics, in addition to asking people on site how things work and watching youtube videos an hour a day or so? I'd appreciate the response, thanks.
