Add $5,000 to your properties value with just $20! Part 2 (low cost front exterior remodel) 

Columns turned awesome what an improvement over the old. It's good to see couples with same interest working together . Great video porch is looking awesome.

Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs ru-vid.comUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu for outdoor buildings, from small sheds all the way up to a complete stable. Choose whatever type of shed or storage house is right for you. Pick from fancy ones or more utilitarian designs.

Watch out for kick back on the table saw. You're still young but it will happen eventually and cut your figure off. Ask me how I know. Just add a couple safety pieces to the saw and use a push stick or the gripper.

Nice use of scrap/salvage 1x and trim material. A Modern column facade is a great cheap way to increase both curb appeal and increase value.

THOSE ARE SOME GOOD LOOKING COLUMNS,,,

I'm going to follow your lead on this. Thanks for sharing.

Thumbnail got me

I wish I had friends like you guys, no one wants to build cool things with me 😭

Wow this was just the video tutorials I needed to watch I am not much good with electrical saw are measuring up anything but Ima give this a real try and tag y’all in my video. Again thanks for making this video tutorial and now I am becoming a follow of y’alls RU-vid channel. God bless y’all.

Goes to show what I already know from my own kids. All these people complaining about kids today are just looking at the wrong specimens . The next generation has many fine individuals working hard to build a better life.

Looks nice. I love doing that manner of trim-ups!! Clearly you and her do too. Looks like fun doing that together. My wife likes to look at it but zero interest in doing it.

I'm wondering why you didn't use any glue when building your column wraps, which would increase the life of all the joints in terms of separating over time with expansion and contraction due to temperature.

Good job, looked like your base cap was out of MDF....that won't last unless you seal this up really well. Nice job though aesthetically. Safety first was funny on the table saw and the lack there of...I run mine the same way.

When watching this video, my neighbor, Carl Von Pritzer, said, "this boy is a true Genius, for he does things with his scraps, in an afternoon, which the finest Bavarian craftsman could not manage to do in a month, with an unlimited stock of wood, and for very low cost - a true Uber Man". Now that's a German immigrant giving you the highest praise.

New subscriber here. It's awesome that you two are doing more than just sitting around being couch potatoes. The entryway is definitely looking much better, keep up the good work!

Nice creative trim work on columns. 2 comments: Safety...You need to use a push stick when ripping board under 6” wide - good rule to save your fingers. Yes you can fit a finger in there to push but what if you or board slips. Good bye finger. Exterior Wood Glue-...didn’t see any used. I would’ve glued all the joints and miters, then pin nailed. Nails hold wood in place long enough for glue to dry. Glue will hold. Small Brad nails won’t over time. I would want to see what these columns look like in a couple years. But hey those are nice for now!

Ian, I love your videos - all the more because of your enthusiasm. Excellent work my friend!!

I’m mildly jealous to see that someone who is the same age as me (19) this successful.

I love the look of it. I want my husband to do the door trim just like you did. Excellent

Great team work! Love the columns!

Outstanding

Great Idea thank you

Nice work on the Columns guys Yes Bondo works well and it sets up fast another good one is Dap Exterior Vinyl Spackle. But it will shrink on big holes and require multiple applications usually I do usually use the Wood Bondo mainly because its a off white or light gray that is easier to cover with paint Its the same as Auto Body Bondo But usually comes with a red hardener that tones the filler pinkish color the Wood Bondo uses a white hardener ! Both work and in a pinch ive used Auto Body That requires a shellac or primer if painting white or light colors is what you are using no biggie a can of Kilz Spray primer works great or Zimmers white pigmented Shellac will last a long time and has many uses. For DIYers like blocking water stains or ?? Both are good products to have around the shop or house

I'm just here for the girl... Carry on

Beautiful

Looks amazing guys well done.

Thanks for the video. I don't work with any of the saws you used but i have to say i cringed every time you reached in to move the wood while i could hear the blade moving. Stay safe. Nice job.

Great job now I'm going to do mine. Thanks for some ideas

Not to be bossy, but something i learned the hard way. Try not to stand directly behind the wood when possible on the table saw. Or you might catch a piece in the stomach if the wood gets pinched. So.etimes you dont see it coming until you are well into the cut and it gets pinched between the fence and the blade. Also use some push sticks to keep your hands away from the blade when and where ever possible. And you should only raise your blade an 1/8th of an inch higher than the wood you need to cut. I lost 2/3rds of a finger in highschool woodshop. Looks great.

Great work on wrapping the columns!!

I love the team work thanks for sharing/ great job👍

I love your columns, I wished we lived next door and I would make you some macrame holders for your flowers!

That was a helpful video. Thank you!

Good work guys!

Looks great!!!

Love it You are good.

Thanks for the video , def a great improvement ..

Great work!

Looks good man!!!! Def gonna try it

This was super helpful and I LOVE IT !

Very nice. Great ideas.

Looks awesome! Bam! Super nice... : )

Looks really nice. I might have gone all the way up with the beefier column but that’s just me. Nice job, nice video!

nice! very nice and thank you for sharing.

The columns look great! I was afraid you were going to loose a finger though!

So much details, but looks fantastic.

In an all season climate all the filler will shrink and Crack, the paint will peel off the edges of every trim piece. Good for a flip but won't last

Not bad! Flowers, however, hang too high and black pots doesn't make it better, also one of the flower pot too close to the enter proximity - my advice hang them on a side at setting area on a level of railing should be, they would provide so need a bright spot and not abstract anything, plus would visually inclose the end part of the porch.

Cute guy. Good job! Thanks for the video!

I wish I could do this or knew someone who could do this.

1:29 🤔

Nice design 👍

Good video bro!

great job wow

yeah I need to spend almost 1K to buy them tool to make $20 upgrade :) but i liked the video anyways

I could see safety is foremost in your projects

In mine redone on my ranch house

You need a push stick !

Tell ya girl stop snitchin on the old guy who buys n smokes weed at 8:26 lol geesh Lmfao

I'm thinking you used pine in here. It looks fabulous but pine isn't fit for outdoor use. The paint should protect it a while but if the bottom piece isnt green or mdf water will wick up into the wood. For the cost and a bit of time, looks great just in 5 years something might need to be done.

Great job, I wish I had the tools to do all this.

Fix your light.... There are wires hanging out and it's not mounted properly

Is that primed pine? How did it hold up to weather?

Great jobs

Well done

is all of that pressure treated wood???

great work

How did you get the upper post from wobbling around ?

What type of material did u use to wrap it?

all you need is expensive tools, unlimited uninterrupted time, a compliant assistant, and make sure your in an area that doesn't require permits for exterior alterations

Thank you for sharing this' I'm a new subscriber... I'll try and do this my self' Let you know how it turns out... I'm the same shape and size as your wife! So I'm sure I can do this! : )

Can u send a list material i have to use

Saftey first: drop that saw blade; save some fingers.

Some homeowners cut corners by using poor materials, always use treated exterior wood then plastic Aztec simulated wood for trim . Pay now or pay triple later.

Please use a push stick when ripping wood on your table saw so you still have your hands and fingers when you’re finished

Nice video bud .you sister looks like she has lots of skills nailing...👌

What kind of wood did you use

It scares me how close you put your hands to blades and near miters when nailing.

What kind of matine did you use

lol @ "That's whatt Scrubs do"

You are awesome 👍

Safety first: don’t wear jewelry when using power tools.

Looking for influencers for New Product- Floating House Numbers

Did you use pine wood?

Looks nice,..i'm going to dress up my side porch columns soon...they're really plain.

literally was just looking at ugly columns and wondering what i was gonna do lol your about to turn a 150k house into something that looks like it sells for 300k

20 just for quart of paint at home depot

Thanks Georgia pollen. 🤪

Is it me or is the flipping table saw fence on backwards? Looks like the lock is to the rear of the table

Should probably let the lady cut your miters. Her cuts had no seems. Just saying.

Nice click bait

So the girl, saw , and parts are 20 dollars?

That was way more than $20 probably way more that $200. It did NOT add $5000 to the value of the house and it was done wrong for the most part.

Dude! First of all you need to use glue on any joints or they are going to open up in the wood expands and contracts. I hope you use the least galvanized nails. The girl is pretty good the guy not so much

I just clicked to see the lady.

Push stick.

pushing lumber (especially dimensional lumber) through a table saw without even a riving knife will eventually lead to kick back which won't be pretty. The bevel cuts on the 1x6's....try cutting at 46 degrees instead of 45 and you will get a tighter seems on the long side and only a small gap to fill on the top edge.

Caulking would be fine for making a seamless look.

u fun dude

Push Stick and 45° angels, just sayin’! Oh and those flowers need to be hanging from some chains!
