As part 7 of our trailer restore project, I install an oak deck from the lumber we milled back in September. The boards had a little bit of warp to them so it made it a challenge getting it all to fit properly.
Our next video will be the completion of this project as we install all the awesome accessories that etrailer.com sent us. Here is a list of the products we will be installing:

I prefer the previous microphone, while it may have its faults, your volume and voice seems to me to be more consistent. Hope all is well on the farm, truly enjoy the channel. Your unabashed spirituality comes through a testament to your faith. Thank you for sharing.

I like the old sound better. I think it was more clear. I'm enjoying the trailer build!

@dcyphrz8532 4 года назад

My neighbor had some oak ramps to load vehicles with. Crazy heavy. You'll be a long time wearing out that trailer deck.

@TN-Land-Manager 4 года назад

Old sound much better. Follower for awhile now. Keep up the good work.

@sydmarty1 4 года назад

That's the best plan. Considering that you mill your own lumber, you can replace any board that gets damaged. If you weld it in, you might just have to put up with a damaged board and always be irritated by it.

My favorite videos are of Kelly and you working together.

I re decked a 6.5x12ft trailer a few years ago. I left 2-3in in between each board. I find the fact that I can flip a ratchet strap hook down between the boards into the cross members more handy than carrying gravel/chips. I have carried gravel and chips with that trailer by just laying down a cheap tarp. Motor oil is my go to cheap wood preservative also. I'm on 9yrs on some of my trailer decks.

@lawnmowerman4040 4 года назад

Brett C I get at least 2 more years by using used oil, grandpa showed me that 50 years ago

@scotthargraves576 4 года назад

The guy we bought our place from covered everything with a 50/50 mix of diesel and used motor oil. Held up pretty well for the most part.

@grandbaycrawford9982 4 года назад

I've seen other ppl do as you did and cut a smaller piece for the 2" left open in your case. I had about the same left in mine. I decided to make a small gap between all my boards. It made it so much easier to keep clean. Your build is looking great! I'm not done watch them all yet.

@Constitutionapologist 4 года назад

I love the new sound. The background noise is not that loud to me. :)

@richardgreen5602 4 года назад

Quality today is good and clear...can hear and understand you very well.

@henryrodgers3409 4 года назад

You can get heavy duty flat head screws that will go through steel to screw the boards to the trailer . That way you can keep them from rattling . That's what I did . I'm surprised that you used motor oil like that . That oil is not good for the environment and every time you put some thing on the trailer it's gonna get oil on it . If you're worried about rot getting to the boards than you should have put something on the under part of the boards before putting the boards on the trailer . I used Thompson Water Seal . Yea I know it costs money when the oil is free. When you were in the garage the sound was OK but when you went to the trailer the sound was not good at all .

@SheratonParkFarms 4 года назад

Definitely the lav mic if you are more than a few feet away from the camera. Shotgun if you are closer. I never really noticed any popping. Chuck from Sheraton Park Farms.

@JoeHHarrell 4 года назад

Over all, the audio using the lav microphone is superior. I think you should stick with it as your primary audio source, just take care in regards to placement so that it doesn't rub as much. I'd suggest using both, then choosing in post-production which one sounds best for the situation.

@Stomby85 4 года назад

Trailer looks awesome! I think the new mic sounded better outside than when you were in your shop. I’d go with whatever’s convenient

@shawnhagen6871 4 года назад

If you’re by yourself use the personal mic but when Kelly or the boys are around def the camera mic

@sniperal77 4 года назад

I think I liked the old mic better had to adjust my volume a few times also Just a thought since you had another board I would have cut 2 boards on trailer down to approx 7 inches and added a 7 inch so not to have the small 2 inch as I believe it will be more prone to warp . Just a thoght. nice build

@jimwalden9871 4 года назад

Put a piece to tubing in the gap and run wiring for your lights.

@michaelhodges3841 4 года назад

I would unbolt the breadboard and turn the floor boards on edge and coat them with oil also.

@4932gb 4 года назад

Diction and delivery are important, your's is great.

@joec2015 4 года назад

Mics... shotgun mics are great but as you know the further away from the mic you are, the more unwanted sound enters the element - including any reverberant sound energy bouncing off of walls and object in the room. This presents different signal "pathlenghts" to the element creating a muddier, less intelligible sound. It is best to keep the mic a little closer to the sound source and reduce (or attenuate) the volume rather than keeping it further away requiring a higher volume setting. It just requires a little experimenting before your presentation! Hope this helps! Blessings.

@concreteart101 4 года назад

I use the hand planner to do the ends of my board when I redid mine .

@jethrob258 4 года назад

Like the way your trailer turned out. Should last a long time. As far as sound quality I personally prefer the lab mic. Eveyones has a little clicking or ruffled shirt sounds. But I believe the lab mic produce a more crisp sound.

@jodysappington7008 4 года назад

enjoyed the video....trailer looks nice...

@hilltopmachineworks2131 4 года назад

If I am staying in one position I use the wired mic. If I am moving around or at a machine and I want the audio from the machine to be picked up I use the shot gun mic. Just have to remember to be in front of the mic or if you move turn the mic towards you so the sound quality stays good.

@joydeanbeauchamp3101 4 года назад

sounds good while you are in the barn

@jbaker4900 4 года назад

I put spent motor oil on a trailer about five years ago. It's still slick when it rains. And you can't put boxes on the trailer while its wet.

@markb1487 4 года назад

Just found your channel,, really like it,, alot work for you taking those edges down so to fit under the front on the trailer,, 👍👍👍

@richardheinen1126 4 года назад

You should’ve left the rear flange on the trailer. Bow your boards up in the middle, start the two ends, the drop the bow. They’ll just snap on in and be fine. No need to remove the flanges to replace boards in the future.

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

Have you ever tried to bow a 2 inch oak board? That wouldn't work.

@Kim-yt7mr 4 года назад

Sounds good to me... now

@bradgates2572 4 года назад

I would cut 2” off the two center boards to get a 6” in the middle and not really compromise the outer wider boards.

@shawnhagen6871 4 года назад

Troy even I have a 12” speed square and I’m a fraction of the carpenter you are 😂

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

I should have shown the footage of my broken one. It was in the garbage. Need to buy a metal one!

@peggypastime1278 4 года назад

Red Tool House - Homestead maybe you could have told someone you needed it for Christmas. 😁😁😁😁

@morgansword 4 года назад

Sounds sweet to my 73 years of wax and bugs live there. End of a car key really ain't the best method of cleaning. Metal drill bits bout set it afire getting the last half inch/LOL, you knew that... just jibing you. Chevys make good waterproofing but I kinda miss the look of wood as I live in a sheet rock cabin and you don't miss till you lose it. Couple times hauling gravel ought to bring up the grain and some of your clay that when it's dry there can be a nose plugger so all in all, really nice total build!! Ya done good Troy but the camera girl was the best (I'm flirting)

@davidj.mackinney6568 4 года назад

Makes sense to me. If the sound is to soft we turn up the volume.

@carlosg1165 4 года назад

It’s good for sounds

@davidfeatch1436 4 года назад

I would add a 2 x 2 x 13 red box length of steel in the centre section rather than the wood infill

@oldtimeengineer26 4 года назад

I like the old mic better more clear and stable

@fionajane56 4 года назад

Nice floor.....it will be indestructible 👍🏼 Had you considered linseed oil for the floor instead of used oil?

@stoneycarter5546 4 года назад

I like the old way it sounded better !!!

@robertmalis4493 4 года назад

I would just go with flat washers and two bolts on that back edge and forget about putting the piece on the top of them anyway have a good day and God bless you and Kelly and your kids

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

That would require at least one bolt per board.

@robertmalis4493 4 года назад

Red Tool House - Homestead you bring up good points

@michaelhodges3841 4 года назад

Lab mike definitely. Too much back ground noise from the rain. I didn't notice the clicking

@45SIG58 4 года назад

Thanks for the excellent video, I have a similar project to do on my trailer, I have no experience using used motor oil, any chance of it being super slick when wet after the treatment?

@coolguy2910 4 года назад

Personally, I like he old microphone setup better. Your volume was more consistent and you could still be heard when further away from the camera. Furthermore, the sound today did, as you said, pick up a lot more of the background noise from the rain and such. Secondly, I wanted to ask how you like your grizzly saws. I saw you have a grizzly table saw and band saw. I have been looking at the band saws for my own shop lately and wondering how you like it and how you would rate its quality.

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

I have been very happy with the Grizzly saws. I have their table saw, band saw, and oscillating spindle sander. All have held up well.

@kenjett2434 4 года назад

Nice job on the floor Troy would you want to do my trailer too lol. My trailer floor is almost clear shot but it will just have to wait till warm weather. Not sure how I want to floor it yet, it had treated 8 quarter decking made of pine on it. Unfortunately 10 years and it's nothing but rot even with me painting it with water seal. I am considering doing a laminate with 2 layers of 3/4 plywood.

@gordonmackinnon8838 4 года назад

vids fine sound fine aok here

@patrickperry6945 2 года назад

You ought to weatherproof that lumber. Oak does not hold up well to weather.

@kerryclark1926 Год назад

Will your trailer be able yo carry anything with all that weight from your thick Oak deck boards?

@evandick2007 4 года назад

Use both mics and pull audio from each depending on quality

@royfrank7101 4 года назад

I would mix some diesel fuel in with the burnt oil to allow it to soak in better

@vanlifenomadfirekeeper 4 года назад

Its load and clear (-:

@philadams3829 4 года назад

Is there a practical reason for not adding a 1/3" gap between the boards, or was the 2" filler board just for asthetics?

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

I expect more shrinkage, so I wanted it as tight as possible.

@philadams3829 4 года назад

@@RedToolHouse that makes sense - thanks for the reply!

@darrylkennedy2125 4 года назад

That's a big trailer for a single axle. Go metric and everything becomes so much easier. And work out the width and cut two boards. I.E. start from the center and work both L and R and rip the outer boards down so everything is even. Just like fence pailings. As far as rebating goes get a router. It's 2020 now not 1820.

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

Sorry, you lost me at metric is better...

@hxFubar 4 года назад

sound was good at beginning and then sounded far away when you changed and asked for input. When you left the shop sound was very low, I assume because you were standing behind the mic.

@bhamby9305 4 года назад

Sounds you need to clean the needle!!

@chuck7298 4 года назад

When you are behind the cam sounds way low can barely hear you

@GaryB33 4 года назад

Don't you have a bandsaw behind you . Why would you chisel those boards. 😂 Have a Great day, GOD BLESS

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

The boards are 13 feet long and almost 70 pounds. Not very easy to articulate on a bandsaw!

@hoffmanfamily_homestead2381 4 года назад

I would rather deal with the popping once in a while than have the ambient noise issue. But that's just me.

@nealsparks4187 4 года назад

Start in the center and finish up on the outside

@michaelhodges3841 4 года назад

Don't weld. I would bolt it on to save the finish.

@shadowbfarms9667 4 года назад

Old way of mic was much better

@jimmieburleigh9549 4 года назад

You could of put your metal piece back instead of bread board and bolted it like the bread board instead of welding it.

@RumbleRoverTV 4 года назад

Personal mic makes it unreal. Like the new microfone. More realistisch

@sixosixo 4 года назад

I like the lav mic better.

@sixosixo 4 года назад

After watching the entire, yes the lav mic is much clearer!

@davidturney9813 4 года назад

How has that saw worked out for you. Table SAW???

@RedToolHouse 4 года назад

It has been a good saw. I have had it for over 10 years now.

@Windsor1492 4 года назад

Old sound was better.

@richardgreen5602 4 года назад

When you came outside to the trailor couldn't hear you nearly as well....quite low in sound.

Half diesel half motor oil.

@danielpadgett2831 3 года назад

Can barley hear you

@larryag99 4 года назад

The audio on your videos has always been bad... I just deal with it, but it is annoying. The new mike appears to pick up too much background noise, and, it looks like you were shouting when you were asking for audio feedback. When you went outside to the trailer, the sound level reduced significantly.
