Easy DIY Deck Frame Walkthrough 

Straight forward and simple teaching. Ive been looking for a video like this for a couple hours now lol really relived me

I used your video to build a deck to extend my front porch. Your method, deck screws and the TuffBlocks. It was amazed at the results. Its only a 4Ft x 8ft deck but it came together in about 4 hrs from driving to buy materials to completion. I used 4'x8' exterior plywood for the deck surface. I'll paint with porch paint.

I have to build a deck this year, and your video will help me a ton in saving time and building it right with the right supplies. Thanks. Great Video...

brodie is the most chilled out dude ever

Love your sense of humor. Hi from New Zealand. Thanks for your video.

Good simple builder that Maximises the use of his tools!… bang on

Thanks for this! I’ve watched a ton of deck videos and you answered a lot of my unanswered questions. I would have loved to watch the remainder of the process because you explain things well! Nice job!

Woodbully...you are absolutely correct; we may not be as lucky for having a perfectly flat surface to work from.

I was thinking “this is perfectly good and salvageable” 😂 I bought my house November 2020 and have wanted to build a deck but since I’ll be doing it all by myself I started researching Tuff Blocks and found this video. Good to see one person can accomplish a whole deck with this system!

Whenever I lose a tape measure I punish myself by going without until I feel I’ve learned my lesson. Never works and I’m currently measuring tapeless in my work pouch. Next step I’ll grab one of the ones I don’t really like but have lots of from my shed or basement or junk drawer. Then when I feel like, this time I finally learned my lesson! I’ll buy the expensive one I actually like. Should be due to purchase the good tape measure in 2-3 weeks.

I'm in Australia and need to soon build a deck for my tiny house and hopefully we can get these blocks here they make it so easy. Brilliant video! New subscriber. Thanks so much

Thanks Wood Bully i’ve learned a lot from your videos. Please keep the tips and examples coming.

Thanks for the detailed instructions! Very helpful!

Awesome job using our TuffBlocks! So many great tips you've shown here, especially the shims you created to overcome the height adjustment. Can't believe you're wearing a t-shirt in Feb! What a champ. Look forward to seeing what it looks like once you've got the deck boards on top.

Very nice video. Kudos to the person following you around with the camera. It ain't easy getting the camera to produce the detailed views that were absolutely necessary to get your message across. You have a sound, common sense approach to building. You earned my thumbs up and my subscription. This was my first video to watch on your channel but definitely Not the last. 👍

There is a lot to be said for recycling, repurposing. I will watch because I love to build things. I am a female senior citizen and love to build it myself. Great video.

Great help video man, i think ill give it a go now

You are super cool. You guys make an awesome team!

You seem to be a fully functioning ADHD professional. Lol, you're talented and equipped enough to complete jobs you start. We need more people like you.

Great video thanks....I love the fact that from the first second watching the video you gef the feeling your partner has been moqning at you to get out there and fix the garden....but you would rather be somewhere else 🤣

Vampliers removes any rusted screws no matter the condition. It’s a must have for any tool bench or kit.

Charlie Sheen doing decks now🤣😂😅 You’re a dead ringer for him man, nice work.

Love this series! Going to build a 10 x 10 just like this! Also going to add a pergola, but just a corner or triangular pergola. Cheers from BC! :)

It was perfectly good, and it was salvageable, but it wasn't what you wanted and that means it is fine to remove.

I watched it because of suspenders. A winner attitude!

Anyone that wears an Alice Cooper T shirt has my vote. At the least I got some pointers....however I'm doing a raised deck with blocks and 4x4s.

I built this same design deck in a 12 X 16 size close to our 6Ft fence. Now every time we use it, we have an unexpected view and vice versa of the neighbor's. Kind of uncomfortable to be watched while having a cookout. If we ever sell our house, I hope the buyer doesn't notice their cluttered back yard.

Wonderful video. You are so accurate and precise thank you for sharing!

Super helpful for a newbie like me, thanks

Hi. Awesome deck build. Looks great. 👍

Like it. Only critique, it drives me nuts when people use their power tools as a hammer. Just get a rubber malet, they're so cheap!

Not gonna lie, the tape measure comment made me LOL

I love how he showed no mercy to that old pergola. Went to town on it with the saws all.

You don't have to use the pencil, you can just move the speed square under the tape measure and then hold it firmly there while you cut.

Love the tutorial. Even not handy people like me might be able to work on this. However, it would be a dream come true if this can done using duck tape and super glue. Lol

I wanted to say the same thing about the drill.... I am guilty of it too.😂

Bwahaha. Love this video. Its almost like you're my son and I taught you how to build stuff. Hammer drill, check ✔️ Yard worse off than it was before you started, check ✔️ Bitchin beginning of a deck, hellz yeah 😂

Thank you Charlie Sheen!👍😉

I definitely learned stuff here! And I need to learn stuff, so I offer much appreciation🎉

I now know why some drills are called hammer drills :) A good frame mate!

This was really good. To be honest little editing would benefit this. But what we lost in some boring video we benefitted it in the audio. Fullfilled with good information. Ive built many patios and I live in different country and we do them little different especially hoe we start them. And this isnt professional what I do but all of mine have hold up fine. Thabk you and you defiently gained a subscriber

I'm a newbie to this stuff but you made it super easy . Thanks Bro

Dude always got the best shirts

going to attempt this deck project thanks for great video. Everything well explained. Having problems finding a stockist for tuff block in Ireland.

Thanks for explaining the measuring of the joists with the tape measure.. most of these videos don't explain the details things like that. Also thanks for the tip with the cutting with a square!

I’ve seen so many videos on a simple deck but the hardest part is leveling the land I think

Super useful video, thanks and I enjoyed the craic too! 😂

Thank you! It was instrumental in my learning process

Are these beams strong enough for that deck? I usually see doubled-up 2xs for beams. And could you go with taller beams and joists? I'm building a 12 x 12 deck with a similar structure but need a little more height so I was thinking of using 2x8s for the joists and beams.

Just a question about why you used 2x6 instead of 2x8?

Kcuf yeah! Awesome video.

Great video ! I’m planning to tackle building a 12x12 deck soon. What sizes do you have to cut the joist?

Thank you for your video

You are hammering the hell out of that impact driver😮😮😮

I was going to tear down my old deck until I checked the prices of chain mail.

I’m going to try this method!

Bonus points for the awesome Alice Cooper t shirt!!

I like your video very much and I learned a lot of new things. Will use this clip as a reference when I build my patio. My wish is that you in the construction industry, like the chefs in the USA, switch to the metric system 😉 with kind regards from Sweden

You should call your impact drill a “hammer” drill 😂

Loved the video! 1 question and 1 suggestion: do y'all use joist hangers for unattached/floating decks? Suggestion: in editing, turn the volume way down for the cutting or drilling segments when you aren't talking. Trying to watch these at night with MY BOSS asleep beside me means my finger gets cramps trying to turn the volume down for noise but up for commentary. Can't wait to see the rest of this transformation. Thanks for all the free tips!

Very informative. Thank you.

I thought he was Charlie Sheen 😂😂😂😂😂

Wish I was this handy

Thank you! This is the only video that did not intimidate me...think I will do it! But can you please shows us your work after you build the foundation and also when you add the pergola p pretty please. I would like to do the same thing.

Love the shirt! I've seen the man live more times than I can possibly count. What foundation blocks are those and where can I get them? I've never seen those before.

Let’s pour a drink every time we carpenters dropped our speed squares on the ground and used our impact drivers as a hammer…

Love your videos

Thanks for the video and information !!!

Thanks!

Dude your hilarious 🤙

Alice Cooper: the quiet room. Forgotten music, helas.

31:29 And you use electrical tape for a bandaid too, right?! We are bros.

Those tuffblocks are brilliant. Superb video

I like the name, wood bully, so i subscribed.

Holy god. This dude takes i eat a bowl of nail cereal in the morning with a shot of treated wood shaving soaked in motor oil for breakfest. Gives zero fucks about his tools.

NICE SHIRT!!!

❤ 😂. If I did 10 x 10 would I need to start out with one more base row? Or two and would I need to beef up the rim or blocking? Sorry but thank you! Besides taking time to answer might get your boss off the clean up detail 😊 your welcome! 😀✌🏼💪💪❤️

FYI, a drill is NOT a hammer.

I learned a lot thanks 🙏

My best friend, OMG! So wonderful! I really love this! Thank you so much!

Thanks for this!

His wife pissed him off and made him do that video and clean the yard🤣🤣🤣🤣

15 years later he steps.into his garden again and it looks the same

I love when I'm in Home Depot and one of these guys are returning a tool and says I have no idea why my screw gun is not working. Maybe because it's not a hammer drill lol .

Most demonstrations of the use of the Tuffblock showed it being set into the soil a bit with a tamped down layer of compacting gravel type. Why did you just set it on top of the weed mat? Or were you just building the frame on top of it, then remove it and later position the tuffblocks into the soil?

I have an 8x10 that a guy built about 20 years ago. He didn't use beams. He just nailed rim joists to posts, then nailed floor joists into rim joists. No joist hangers. I want to rebuild it because it is "bouncy" and is getting worn. It's about 40 inches off ground. Is there anywhere you can recommend that I can find plans for how to do it right?

Best in the bizzzz

damn, that sawzall cut was so rough he got the whole front of his pants!

Wood bully lol beating up the wood with the drill/hammer😂😂

----- " you don't have to do this, but I recommend it - you need to crown your joists " ---- no: you crown ever single piece of wood you aren't using for deadwood or blocking - and those you check for warp --- in fact, you check every single piece of wood for straightness - crown, warp, and bow - BEFORE you pay for it -- leave the trash for those who don't care or aren't going to look

two batteries on that makita? how much does that thing weigh??

me @ 20:36, oh it's probably going to be automatically perfectly square just like the leveling. lol

Chain mail,mid evil👍

how did you level it all out when placing the plastic blocks under the wood?

I am just asking as i dont know, but will the blocks sink eventually? Is there concrete or footers under? Maybe you cover it ill listen.

More DIY video please 👍👌

How come the boss wasn't cooking you and Alice the steak whilst you guys were building the patio?

At least you'll be able to have a bonfire with the branches and Christmas tree.. lol

I’m doing this type of deck but no way my area is flat like this lol

Do a video of you sorting your fence out as looks like falling over
