Every time I watch one of your videos the attention to detail and excellent craftsmanship stand out. It makes me and I’m sure many others want to do better and always strive to do the best job possible
I have to say I found your videos about 2 months ago as I was finishing tiling my house. Watching your wainscoting videos inspired me to give it a try, and I'm almost done with the first room. LOVE the pocket joint idea and it makes things far easier to install, and your detail on how you do the work helps so much! Keep it up and thank you for all you do with the videos!
I love your channel. You do awesome work. As an older guy, trust me, there are pants that have knee pads in them. save your knees. you will be glad you did. I want to enjoy your channel for many years to come.
It is always such a pleasure watching your "pre-assembled" pieces go together so perfectly. You are a master craftsman and I am grateful for your always informative and funny videos! Just not sure why you aren't in the NBA making multi millions with that incredible height!😂
I wish we had someone here that does this. Several people I have talked with about doing this in my house, look at me like I have two heads. 'Oh no, it can't be done. It's too expensive. You don't want that...... 'yada yada.' I was wanting some beadboard put up there. TFS. It's lovely.
You should consider using the zip wall adjustable posts (or similar). Not designed for heavy weight but would work great for situations like this where you need an extra set of hands. I've used them in similar situations and they worked like a drea.
Richard, you got the new Milwaukee Fuel 12” Miter Saw! Now you’ve got the big brother to the Milwaukee 7 1/4” Dual Bevel Miter Saw. I really like my 7 1/4 Milwaukee Miter Saw! My Son in Law just got the 12” several months ago and I got a chance to p,any with it when we went to visit them recently. It’s a beast!
I’m a CA Architect. OMG, I don’t know of any CA trim expert that would move ductwork. I hope they are paying you dearly for this custom work, you deserve it.!
Great layout. Regarding the flaking of paint off the plastic, If you use the 3M hand tape dispenser with 9" paper and run it around the room above the plastic you will not get as much paint on the plastic and it won't flake off the paper. This also allows you to put up the plastic quicker since the dispenser tape forms the seal against the wall..
Not sure that your work can get any better but standing next to the Cut Hub you look more sophisticated. I can understand your appreciation for quality tools. Thanks for all the inspiration and education.
Finish carpentry tv. A trick for eliminating flaking paint off the plastic is to take it one more step further and run a length of paper and tape with a masker along the perimeter of the plastic so that majority of overspray is on the paper not that plastic. Paint won't flake off the paper like it does plastic. I take that extra step now cause I hate having to clean up after flakey plastic 😎
Thanks for posting love this channel learned so much. Anyone who gives this channel a hands down don’t know what there doing. Keep those videos coming you need your own tv channel on HG tv. Can’t wait for the next video to come out.
Hi, awesome set up on the miter saw. Great job as always. Just a tip instead of throwing your scrap wood on the floor get a small container so you can save time. It works for me. Cause time is money. From Wisconsin
Hope don’t get tired of reading & hearing.....but Slick, clean, & great detailed trim work. Very nice and really looks great 👍🏻 Never disappoint when watch a vid, & am always fascinated by the lengths you (& many others) go to for a “project”.....what separates good, from great; imo😉 (6:08 for example, as you’re taking care to make the vent right; along with supporting the ducting w/o any kinks/bends..... Some ppl wouldn’t go thru these steps & just do whatever to get job done, I’ve seen it...) Cheers✌🏼
Have you ever tried the fast cap third hand support system? They extend to 12' and have a handy jack at the top to help get your stuff tight to the ceiling. I use it for cabinets and trim, but it would also work on a large ceiling install like this one.
I would love to see Richard do some precision finish carpentry in my area. The average home is a coal mining house built well over 100-120 years ago. I just installed a bifold closet door in an opening that was over an inch out of square. And the sad thing is that door frame was possibly built completely square in 1890. LoL
Those wannabes with an inferior skillset. A thumbs down for Richard really makes no sense to me, well to the majority of us I’m sure! I usually give him a thumbs up before I even watch the video, just so I don’t forget. I already know that I’m going to see quality work, work that I could only aspire to doing half as good as he does! He’s also a damn fine teacher!! Richard’s the man!
You've done some awesome work in that house! I think I've watched all of your videos now and am very impressed with your work and have learned a ton. I'm applying a lot of your advice to some staircase wainscoting that I've been working on. These accented ceilings you've done look amazing. In both videos you have pocket screwed the framework together and then did the same thing I would do....say you're never doing it again but do it anyway. :) How would you do it if you didn't pocket screw it? Say the room was twice as long...that would make it pretty tough to lift the whole thing up. So would you just nail it up piece by piece? Pocket screw sections of it and nail it up in sections? Maybe use biscuits somehow too? Thinking out-loud...Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the world!
You mention that your pre-assembly method gives a better result, and can be easier to fit, but does it not depend upon absolute accuracy in layout and cutting? You mentioned the math, but it is surely more than that. Your measuring and cutting must be spot on! I watch your videos with awe!
Yes having the math and a good stop block help enormously. The boards are all the same and we make sure of it before assembling/installing. I dry fit everything before I glue it as well.
