ITS EXPLANATION IS SO CLEAR AND DIRECT THAT MAKES THIS JOB SEEM TOO VERY EASY ... BUT WE KNOW IT REQUIRES KNOWLEDGE AND TECHNIQUE WITH EXCELLENT TOOLS GRATEFUL FOR SHOWING LAY PEOPLE
How long is the working time that you have on that caulk to get everything aligned? Seems like a continuous-feed caulker would be more efficient than constantly swapping tubes. Does anyone make such a tool?
It seems like a tongue and groove type feature would make the walls more flush, air and water proof. And a stainless steal footing over the seal between the wall and the base to cover that crack would seem smart as well. 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️ This looks extremely expensive, with all the glue, guns, screws, nails, tools, cranes, etc. 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
The bottom plate is anchored to the foundation by means of J hook anchor bolts. Sips are attached to the sides of the bottom plates. Much stronger connection than stick. Fabulous in seismic areas.
I don't have faith in chipboard plywood. I read that the glue fumes can cause respiratory problems and that it is not recommended that chipboard be installed in rec rooms for that reason.
Yes, I read that somewhere. However, if the surface is sealed with paint, then hopefully it would prevent fumes from escaping into the room? I don't know, perhaps someone does
