Hi! My name is Mike and I thank you for checking out my channel and continuing to support me over these past few years as my channel has grown from a handyman channel, to now a full woodworking and DIY channel. I have a full woodshop in my home and have been making flags and other items for the past 4 years. I continue to learn the skill of woodworking and hope to grow this channel through hard work and dedication to the craft.
I hope my videos will entertain, educate, and make you chuckle on occasion.
You can also follow my work on Instagram @marrazzowoodworking.
I also have a law enforcement/woodworking podcast available on all podcast platforms called Handcuffs & Sawdust. Check out the podcast RU-vid channel here: ru-vid.com/show-UCy0OFXFWnb4p7BriVF4-n5w
The wood used was poplar. I ripped each piece to the width I wanted on my table saw, then cut to size on the miter saw. You can get 1"×6"×8' boards from your big box store and rip them to width on your table saw to the size you desire. If you don't have saws, you can ask the wood store to cut them to size.
simple fix, readjust the bolt so it passes the hole in the jam then it will not hit the wood on the inside . that way you do not have to push on the door to lock it then it will not get stuck. have a nice day.
OMG Ty! Mine was hanging down and I almost called to make appt to get it fixed and then I thought let me check YT and there you were. Now it’s all fixed- literally 3 min 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Enjoyed your video! Just finished doing very much the same thing for a new one piece toilet just installed that had a defective fill valve. On the new tanks first fill up, just as it reached the water level mark, it blew off the little filter cylinder on the lid. Couldn't reseat it. A mystery? Didn't know how different these dual flush systems are compared to the older single flush. Shopped around and couldn't find anything, but finally decided to just use the old inlet fill valve from my 50+ year old toilet. Results were just like yours! It works!. Doesn't seem the fill valves have changed very much. Nice work. Good display of the whole procedure!
I'm so sorry. I always hope that this will help but when it doesn't, it's time to call a locksmith. And then change your lock to a better quality lock. Thanks for taking time to comment. Good luck!
They've sent me the wrong legs or something, my caster do not fit the holes at all, way to small. I also got no little wrench, my holes are small and not threaded. Bacically, i have to wait to call them. to see whats going on here.
What do I do if trying to get the latch out of the door with a screwdriver like you showed doesn't work? I can't open the door and have both inside and outside the cylinders off. What now?
Im sorry for the delay in response. Have you tried taking a small hammer and striking the bolt itself while having someone else use the screwdriver to move it at the same time? I'm sure you opened it already and have replaced it.
I see some people are saying the video wasn't helpful but it was very useful for me. I literally did what you said with screwdriver and it works perfectly fine now. Thank you sir💯
This isn’t any help, you fully skipped over unsticking the bolt mechanism. Anybody could pop a couple screws and turn in manually. I’ve got a bolt with a broken mechanism so the bolt is stuck open with no way of manually unlocking, an actual problem.
Thank you for posting this excellent video. I studied it with great interest. I think you did this more efficiently (and effectively) than I have done my own corresponding lock installations and lock removals. Are you still using this lock? How has it turned out for you?
Hi Robert, thanks for the question. I am no longer using the lock. (Not) surprisingly, it was a not of good quality. I meant to film a follow-up video, which would've shown me throwing it into the street, but I thought better of it. It lasted one week.
Thank you for this interesting video. I have worked with Kwikset brand locks quite a bit in my younger days and they seem to be of such poor quality. I am glad you were able to get your deadbolt working. Did you replace at some point?
Hi Megan. Thanks for the question. This job in the Chicagoland area should cost between $1300 - $1500 depending on the quality of plywood and hardwood used as of today's date.
You could invalidate your homeowners insurance if you have a key on the inside and outside. That is absolutely against any fire regulations and just not safe. By the way there is a fantastic lock lubricant called Houdini. It is by far the best I have used as a locksmith.
Unfortunately you cut the camera and cut back on where my problem is I can't get it to disengage and That's where you quit filming right at the crucial part for me and come back on with it work and it sucks for me because that's the part I needed. Oh well I still appreciate the video I know it's helped other people
Yes, unfortunately, that took me that long. Being the first one I ever did and not having any plans whatsoever and just winging it. I know I can do the job in 2 days now. If it was at my own home with all my tools here and not having to travel 30 miles in between job sites and with this experience.
I was just kidding, it turned out really nice, but I think I would have explained to the homeowner that the baseboard that got covered up was alittle eccentric, but if they weren't friends they would have been charged for that lol. Nice job...
Yes, my friend Jon decided to finish it off this way with just some caulk. it worked out well, but the method you want to incorporate would probably look more finished. Good luck!
Ahhh the old shop video. I'll have to shoot a new one in the spring. The original 5 piece Tama kit was purchased in 1982. It is a swingstar model. I then added 3 more bass drums (4 total). 4 iron cobra pedals. 14 mounted toms, 2 floor toms, 3 roto toms, and 12 Zildjian cymbals. There is too much to list. And hydrologic heads. Next spring I'll be building a new riser for it after I expand the shop. What do you have?
How do you know where to drill on the outside when it doesn’t appear you drilled all the way through? Did you use a special tool did you stick the drill bit all the way through the house?
In the beginning of the video and process, we drilled a center hole with a really long drill bit. Then just went to the outside, placed the center of the hole saw bit in said hole, and drilled.
@@marrazzowoodworkingdiy8118 can you share the bit type you used to go thru house? I see a lot on Amazon for wood, ect. 1 footers, suppose that’s probably fine huh?
@DestinyGrind. My friend Jon told me he got that bit at Lowes, but doesn't remember the name. And big box store should have them. I found this: Drill America - DWDDL18X3/8 3/8" x 18" High Speed Steel Extra Long Drill Bit, DWDDL Series a.co/d/eL9TPGC
