"shout out to my number one carpenter, Jesus!" hahaha😂😂😂legend
thats right jed....thanks for sharing man!
It makes sense the creator would want to become a carpenter. He loves to build and create lol
@@anthonylombardo4829 its right in front of our eyes but many dont see it.. its amazing
@@homemend what's the song at 0:25?
Amen brother
This is a great introduction for folks not familiar with the trade. Well done. Also, appreciate the shoutout to our boy, the number 1 carpenter!
thats right scott! So happy you enjoyed it! thanks for commenting!
Please don't refer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as "our boy" please. Show some respect.
@@J0rd4nBr0 ;-; ....ok
"Use my finger as a guide"....is the same technique my neighbor Two Finger Terry uses.
Hey Uts! terry is my neighbor too! thanks for commenting!
Utseay that is a very useful technique if your comfortable doing it safely and accurately learned this today and worked on me doing decking
@@homemend u da man
I'v just taken up carpentry at over 40 I can't tell you how much it's helped me with my head. Very satisfying even my mistakes. Good for the soul. Live your posts feel your positive vibe
Thank you ku! So glad the videos help you my friend. Stay tuned more to come
Did you have any existing knowledge about carpentry or building stuff beforehand? I’m 30 and considering it myself but have never worked with my hands before other than basic factory work. So manual labor isn’t an issue for me but…idk..going into it with zero background knowledge kinda scares me.
@@lonewanderer_n7 It's so important to always be learning and growing or you'll never have a better life. We have the world's information at our fingertips but also take the time to put some real thought into it. Everyone seems to be looking for help, see if you can take a few days or a week off from work (vacation/sick days) and ask a carpenter if you can help him for free for a few days in exchange for some insight into what its like as a career. Or do that on your weekends (off days) and probably within a month you'll either realize you don't like it or be familiar enough its not so scary to switch careers.
You're a great teacher. Simple, easy to understand, and no BS. Thank you.
I appreciate you sir thank you Kyle and great comment my friend!
Such a nicely presented tutorial for the uninitiated like me. Seems like a decent person too. Thank you sir!
hey corvux! thanks for sharing..
Like this guy. Hope he’s staying strong in the Lord. Appreciate this video
Thank you Trevor. And yes sir you know what my friend. Thanks for commenting
I think Carpentry is a God-given gift and you either have it or not. I'm 42 years old, but would love to learn how to build homes and survival camps out in the woods. I've been told that the first step to becoming a Carpenter is learning how to use a measuring tape, which is harder than some may think. Just watching Carpenters build things eases my mind with peace and calms my soul. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome comment Derek. Thank you so much for sharing. One little step at a time my friend and I will definitely put out a how to use a measuring tape video.
Your humor is off the chart! Thanks for the information and keep us entertained as well.
Thank you ha! Why not have fun with it. Thanks for commenting!
Dustin, you really should be wearing safety glasses! That's the mom in me :-) Thank you for all you do.
awe i know it...thanks so much for commenting!
Here here!! Seen plenty of wood chips fly into peoples eye no fun
Yesterday I didn’t use my safety glasses when I cut some pressure treated wood. Ouch! That stings! AC2. Between your eyelid and eyeball. Glad it wasn’t the chromated copper arsenic 😁
I won’t do THAT anymore!
Awesome; each one teach one, I'll be sure to pay it forward

Thank you nath. Appreciating you sir.
Yo this video is helpful as hell thanks.
Thank you for sharing CA… Appreciate the comment
Great video lots of handy tips the only thing I would do differently is when using the speed quare as a gide if ya face it the other way you get a greater reference point to start with on anything less then the width of the square it's easier and more accurate Ive found
That's a great idea! thank you joel!
Great video man thank you

Hey casa. Anytime is a good time to start.

I've been a carpenter for 25 years, and everything you said was correct, except the word smidge is fine, but most people say c-hair.
(C stands for See You Next Tuesday.)
Good video.

Lolll great video and it was entertaining. You have a gr8 personality and you convey the content well. Enjoyed it.
Now for the nitty gritty... your first tape had a black boxed 16 which represents same as the red one ;). What other trade secrets can you give out? I am sure no one will tell!
HA Brazeau! missed the black boxed 16...good eye my friend! thanks for commenting!
Great video Dustin! Love how good you are at explaining things! Although I am sure that Jesus would have used a Milwaukee circular saw not a Makita! ;)
Come on Lee!....well ....they are red. you might have me there.
Yes I use a Milwaukee circular saw
I learned something so had to subscribe 🤦♂️👍🤣

Interior finish carpenters go into 32nds for mitre cuts etc
Great input thank you
Great video. I love your easygoing 'vibe', and you have a lot of classic tips and tricks here. You make rough carpentry fun and accessible, so I love that. One thing that I wanna bring up. As a horseback riding instructor, I always have my students wear a training helmet, and I wear one too, (especially if I'm on a horse I don't know well.) In the past, safety equipment was looked down upon as 'amateurish' and unnecessary. But we all have accidents, amateurs and professionals. A cheap pair of safety goggles is better than spending the afternoon in an emergency room, with a big piece of wood in your cornea. Just a tip that you might want to add to your next vid. Thanks, Buddy! You're awesome!
thank you christopher! totally agree..thanks for sharing..
super super. hope you got subtitle for your videos is perfect 😘
hey viet...alot of them are. subtitled but..i need to get back on it..thanks so much!
Carpenters
I come from a family of inventors, engineers, & carpenters. Carpentry is the science of manufacturing with wood. The process started with Surveyors, Loggers, & Sawyers. Some carpenters are joiners (see Japanese joinery), some cabinet makers. Cabinet makers need more precise measurements, so measurements of less than 1/64th inch are used. A cabinet maker can cut to a precision of less than 1/64th inch, and then sand or plane to perfection.
Carpentry is good clean work. If you want to be a carpenter, best is to apprentice under a Master Carpenter, and /or do work on the job. Next is to learn about carpenters tools, and have a few important ones: good belt and apron bag, large metal square, small square/triangle & protractor, levels long & short, chisels of different sizes, electrical & hand planers, electrical drill & bits, brace, electrical & hand saws, possibly hammer & conforming tool, pencil/scribe, compass. Then you will need consumables: screws, pegs, nails, rods. Maybe goggles & gloves & first aid kit (read and be proficient at first aid). Watch your hands and feet! Hydrate! Contemplate different ways of design & construction. Measure and plan at least three times. Cut once, oversize if necessary, and plane, chisel, sand to fit, shim if you made a mistake or must use short wood. Learn types of wood & wood treatments: stain, glue, caulk, paint.
You are awesome my friend thank you for this valuable info. What a treat. Thank you for commenting
Skills are free to pass on. It the saying of God teach a man to fish and he will not go hungry again, And that's what your going.
Awesome jewel! thanks so much for commenting!
Not really.... Someone is going to loose a finger watching this guy.
This is awesome! So funny how he bags out metric and then goes onto describe his loose way of getting a more accurate measurement lol.
you caught me dan! thanks for commenting!
@@homemend lol! Recently subbed, I like your videos and how they are easy to follow, Cheers
awesome! great to have you.. thanks so much!
Gave major props to Jesus . Way to go!!

Warm greetings from Romania!
Thank you. Love Romania!
@@homemend I wish you a wonderful week, my dear friend! May our Lord JESUS CHRIST bless you in anything you do!
He is so good. Thank you cp. same to you friend.
God bless you my friend. I just came here because I wanted to find a video and see how a Carpenter holds a tape measure. Turns out I'm not crazy! You hold it in your left hand and mark with your right hand, just like me, a "non-carpenter". And I read it upside down, naturally. I would like to join an unruly mob of frustrated laymen, and storm the Stanley factory. Subdue all their left handed managers, and turn their tape measure machines around, so they only make right handed ones! Cheers!
Yes sir. He does. Totally agree. Thanks so much for commenting. So glad it helped.
Nice lecturing, even for me as a non native speaker
awesome alexis! thanks for sharing!
Exelente i will subscribe lol
Thank you F!
Finish carpenters definitely go into the 32nds. Not with the math really but when I make cut lists I might say this cut is 12 3/4 strong or shy. Especially when I'm doing division of balusters. If I do the math for my layout with decimals I might get something like 3.8375 on center for my whole row of spindles which is a strong 13/16". If I didn't go into the 32nds then that error accumulates and over a span of 8ft that could add up to my last spindle being a whole half inch off. You just need to know when it matters to chase that kind of precision in your work.
great point strat, yes you're correct, definitely need to be aware when measuring and marking off. thanks for sharing!
Watched to the end so im obligated to comment. Enjoy the algorithm
Thanks for watching!
I'm thinking of being a carpenter when I grow up
Hey Timothy. It is a great trade to get into and profitable my friend. Good luck!
Kick him out of the club! Trade secrets just given out to the public, how could you?!
I use a lot of these technics daily, I wish the new guy only knew half of this. Most of them show up and read a tape like " 38 and 3 little black lines"
Great video! Keep up the great content!
hey master! so good my friend... thanks so much for sharing!
If you turn your speed square to the other side of the board it will be easier to cut as you are pushing with your right arm and pulling with your left. Provided you are right handed.
Great tip A!...totally makes sense....i lay it however i lay it down..:) .thanks for sharing!
I'm currently on my way for a recruitment for carpentry. I'm super nervous
you got this jon!....jesus was a carpenter...its already in you friend! good luck.
Buy the most expensive tape measure you can find and you'll never lose it again!
Yes mud! maybe if it was 30 bucks you would care a bit more..lol thanks for the tip!
I always put my name on the bottom of the tape about 25feet in . So if anyone finds it or says hey that's my tape. I flip it over an say now way sucker see that's my name. This has come in handy over the years.
@@alaskanken2132 lol if I have to do all that I might as well fight you for taking my tape measure
Amen
that's right!
"They'll kick me out of the club" Good sir you withhold our club, of course I can't speak for all of us because that wood be rotten.
You are awesome Ian . Happy to be part of the gang
Try doing site lay out with a standerd tape metric is your friend
Hey hey mike! Never done it. Thanks for sharing.
Im just going into carpentry didnt realize how precise you have to be with your cutting and drilling could be a lil nerve wrecking because I struggle with anxiety its definitely not easy
Hey brother. Know that you will mess up. Give yourself grace. Jesus would!
@@homemend hey thanks bro for encouragement yes Jesus definitely would God bless
Absolutely my friend. Anytime you need help I’m here for you. And when you go, a host of Angels go with you.

awesome hyp! So cool...thanks for commenting!
I used that tape measure when I first started finish carpentry, helped me get familiar with the measurements. Now I I really don’t like them, the measurements are distracting. Eventually your boss is going to hand you his tape measure and ask you to call out some measurements and you should know how to use it. If you get a measurement that An inch and 3/16 and you don’t know your 16th you can say inch and one eighth strong.
hey dex! 1/8th strong........i like ir...thanks for sharing!
Im learning caprentry and im really struggling
