An air punch nailer is a game changer! I try to repurpose as much lumber as possible for my builds too. Nice transformation and way better than the lattice look, keep up the great work as the goal is to inspire others to build something awesome!👍🏼
Well done. Great inspiration. I did the same thing. 3 years ago someone was taking down their deck. I look cjed itvup for $450. And ended up with a 10 x 20 deck with composite top. Alot of work to pull all nails screws and clips but we'll worth the effort
We move into our new home June 30th, and the deck there needs major work. I’ll be using many of the skills and tricks on that. Btw - if you have an opportunity to do a segment on removing paint from a deck, please do one. This deck is painted and looks horrible. Great content as usual!
I'm a big of upcycling used lumber for projects like these. I helped a friend tear down his deck years ago and I STILL have lumber to use from that. At today's prices, it can't be beat and the wood is still good!
Years back we re-did all the baseboard in the house and the 18ga brad nailer was a life saver. After hammering in nails to the first board I went and bought the thing. I also had a project that needed staples and got an air powered staple gun because the hand held one was a pain. Falls into the "best purchase ever" category.
If you use a lot of reclaimed timber I think you would find a pinpointer a great help. It will locate all those hidden nails left in the wood. I use one on all my wood before running it through my joiner thicknesser.
That looks great! way better than lattice. If you start focusing on reclaimed wood you'll find that there is so much wood being thrown out everywhere. As a 'wood hoarder' myself the higher prices don't help, when I walk past a skip with nice wood in it I have to take it.
Your implementation of ad in the video is currently the best implementation of sponsors i have watched... I didnt have to fast forward till the sponsor section because the action is still ongoing behind the clip
There is no doubt you will will be nominated for Multiple Grammy Awards! The extra points are endless: ingenuity, entertaining, concise and much more etc! I rarely "watch" ads, but I absorbed the Norton LifeLock content while watching you work... Now, I need a Wagner Paint Sprayer and much more :-) Even though the darn snake startled me a second time.... I remain Subscribed, with my Notification Bell Turned "ON" :-) Thank you for sharing. You put a ton of effort into this video! Very Well Done!
Brilliant. great idea on clamping the door panels together before installing. Ive tried the opposite and literally spent days trying to get them just right. End result screw holes slightly off resulting in a messy work around.
This is really a lot of work it's long time you have a patient I don't have permission for that you make it so easy but it is hard because you are good at what you do that's awesome man
Looks outstanding! We’re still using the wood planks from our neighbor’s fencing. My husband thought I was crazy, but now with the cost of wood, he’s once again bowing to the queen of (s)crap.
You did a great job! I did a similar job to my friends back porch/deck in TN. I hate hand saws but I found most american hand saws work /cut on the push stroke. When you apply a pushing force the blade wants to bend on an america style saw so your cuts are wider and not straight! I bought a Kakuri Japanese pull saw! It cuts on the pull stoke! The blade is in tension and keeps a straight thin cut.
It turned out really great! Curious to see how the deck stain has held up over the last year? Any peeling, or does it just fade evenly for a wash/re-apply?
Great project and incredible job on recycling the wood. I have several times used recycled cedar fence boards on projects. I did a beautiful project around a big island that turned out beautiful recently. The nail holes just added character on my project.
Apparently the earlier version of the Air Locker was junior-high school me with a trash pick hammer and nail punch. Seriously not my most fun summer, but I'll admit it: did learn how to throw a hammer. Thanks, Dad.
What an awesome transformation!!! It was labor intensive but had to be so gratifying to give new life to that old fence and keep it out of the landfill. Also saved a lot of money. The end product looks fantastic!
Very cool man! I did something similar to my deck many years ago. I used treated decking boards and ran them vertically rather than horizontally. I think either way is a lot better look than lattice.
this is awesome, i was at the county landfil throwing away shop offcuts, some one was throwing away fence just like this, only regret is i could onlyu get two into my truck. 8 - 8ft sections were thrown away
so beautiful .... such a perfectionist!! but you make perfectionist look perfect.... you need to make a video of all the before and after's from your house... you did practically redid your whole house!! so how many years have you lived there and how many projects completed... how many people come in your home and say... wow I love this... " oh I built that" oh I love this too... yep built that... that is a woodworkers dream!! well I build everything in and outside of the house..
Need to add a cross brace on the swinging panels. Place inside the frame and run from outside top to bottom hinge. If you want it to last longer haunch them in to the perimeter frame.
After finding several hidden nails and staples damaging my tools, I’ve learned to buy a $20 metal detector through Amazon and it’s been a game changer.
I've seen videos of that "death puncher" (love that name! Ha ha ha ha) but never really seen one used in the real world. The other thing is with the price of lumbar these days, you saved a ton of money! And a quick tip... jig saw! Great outcome!
Awesome build Brad. Love the upcycled material and the look turned out great. I settled for lattice a couple years ago and while it was better than nothing, doesn’t look great.
Tim from Canada if you were doing this reclaiming Oldewood and you are using a reciprocating saw with a metal blade to cut your nail heads off suggestion put a tarp underneath your wood so you do not have to find the nails later.. because in the end when you were cutting the grass do you really want those things to be shooting a crossed your lawn.(Step one when you were reclaiming all wood and you were having a hard time taking the nails out..).. step to put a tarp down then put your project over top of your tarp... it will see you in the end when you’re picking up nails.)."(step three you’re ready to get to work on your project use a reciprocating saw with a metal blade it will save you a time in the end have fun get to work)
That was a lot of work, you reused all wood, put so much time, I enjoyed the video even thou I don’t have a deck,nor tools or knowledge how to use them lol, just for your hardworking , great tools and awesome shop I subbed.
Wow. Amazing as always. I kinda liked the 2 tone look off the stained deck n post and the natural color of inserts. Either way looks great. Way better than using whatever 4x8 wood/ vinyl lattice at local box store n cutting it to fit. You made it your own. Great job once again
