What white oak boards do you use?

@jaimesolis8362 2 года назад

So Sad I barely see this anymore. Keep it up my man. We are the last of an apparently dying breed. I'd love to meet more folks who take so much pride in their work nowadays... I work in Orlando. I'm working in a high value area, yet it's hard to see this type of finish carpentry. Its astonishing really...

@garethheathcote4988 2 года назад

What glue are you using mate? I have to do something similar next week but with white oak plywood. 🙂

@jasonb421 Год назад

Incredible! So, I've never used a track saw... How does the track not slide from side to side when you're making your 45.5 degree bevel cut along the edge of the board? I noticed there's no clamping or fastening the track to the board and it seems to just be laying on the board... oscillation and sliding of the track aren't an issue so you can get a nice consistent cut right along your chalk line? I definitely need a track saw... Can a typical skill saw be used as a track saw or do you have to buy a track saw that goes with a particular track?

@jasonb421 Год назад

@@garethheathcote4988 He's using Tight Bond 3 (the green label). It's the strongest of the 3 wood glues that Tight Bond makes and it's thinner and you have more time to work with it before it sets up than the other 2 Tight Bond wood glues. Also, because it's not as thick as the other two, it doesn't spew out of the mitered edges onto the work surface as much. And it holds extremely well once it sets up (after maybe 10 or 15 minutes).

@thomlipiczky9021 2 года назад

So nice to see a finish carpenter who knows how to set up, think through, and execute! I've been doing this for a long time, and I'm learning lots watching you!

@Samuel-zo6yh 2 года назад

Love how efficient you are with things, I want to work alone, all the time. You constantly show me things that make it possible for me to do it alone. Thanks!

@Maitairanch Год назад

You’re a f***ing G I had to watch all your ceiling beams videos 10x each. I dedicated one month to buy the same gear and perfect them. I’m now making a living here in a new town I moved to because of you 🙏 god bless you

@UncaRyRy 2 года назад

Not only do you teach great techniques for making perfect mitered corners, but you also show subtle work/life balance tips with your golf glove tan line! Hope you hit it as straight as your mitered edges!

@jeffpoulton6112 2 года назад

I just did my first folded miter using your techniques from this and your other videos and I'm blown away with how well it turned out compared to my previous attempts. The 45.5 degree angle and the burnishing are pure gold! Thanks for sharing your craft with us Spencer.

@InsiderCarpentry 2 года назад

Fantastic!

@joebethune5330 Год назад

Spencer as far tape miter folding there are two different types of clear plastic tape. One stretches (white label on inside of roll) and the other does not stretch (yellow label on inside of roll), use the not stretch

@johnboggs8765 Год назад

where did he mention a 45.5 degree angle? i must have missed that. He didn't use a 45 degree angle on this?

@Stevelemontrudy 2 года назад

Dude, every single one of your videos is a master class on the topic at hand. I appreciate that you show what to do, what to avoid, and how to fix the unavoidable. Thank you so much.

@maxgilbert18 2 года назад

I love watching someone who can best me in construction work. It's the only way to learn. Maybe one day I'll have your level of skill. Those perfect track saw cuts are so much more difficult than the video makes them look. Your skills are off the chart.

@dusttinfinn6583 Год назад

Great production.. very clear explanations, no gaps in steps you take, and there’s never any “extra” and fluff dragging the video out with useless information. Very much appreciated sir. Like watching Larry Haun.

@justelvin 2 года назад

I laughed, and laughed at 19:00 dropping the glue "right where you can step on it" - Why do we do it? Every time!

@marydattoli8156 2 года назад

Good Ole Murphy's Law!

@royordway9157 2 года назад

I just avoid that step and wipe the glue on the sole of my show to start with. With caulking I just squirt a couple dabs on my pants to start with.

@mykolashatkovskyi8817 2 года назад

I just thought the very same thing as you said! 😂😂😂

@RamblinRoadies 2 года назад

I'm a framer that does finish on my own home. Most of my finish techniques were self taught. It's great to be able to pick up some tips from an "expert".

@TheSkitd 2 года назад

This is perfect timing. I really appreciate this video as it is exactly what I need to pull this off. I'm going to make some floating shelves in my living room above the bar. i have every tool you used in this video including a 118" Makita track. Your already proven technique will make things go much more smoothly. I wasn't even searching for something like this, it just appeared in my recommended videos, although I am a subscriber. Thank you very much.

@wuillians 2 года назад

When you stopped to clear the chips out of the hose it made me realize that's another advantage of the track saw. You can stop a cut and pick up where you left off. There's plenty of examples where you would want to stop a cut mid operation (specially when the blade is binding) and it's hard to pick it back up while still getting a clean cut.

@timcoulter7016 2 года назад

@mikeinmaryland 2 года назад

Another great video by the Lone Ranger. That said, with all the cordless tools you have or that you’re switching too, you never picked up the rips off the floor, instead you continued to walk over them. If you work alone, you don’t want to trip and fall alone. To quote you, Don’t ask me how I know. Keep up the great work, stay safe.

@bighaasfly Год назад

You savvy boy! Look at you go. Nice work!

@michaelwangler486 2 года назад

Great work, especially on site. A j-roller really helps the tape grab better. Also, the dip angle of 45.5 is critical. I know you have mentioned that angle in other videos, and it really makes a big difference. Thanks for sharing

@scottfeenstra4322 2 года назад

Great content once again. The sanding trick looks mint, I'll have to try that next time. One thing I like to do differently is to make the bottom piece of the beam the exact width of my track, and adjust the width of the mounting board on the ceiling to match. I find it quicker, more consistent, and simpler than measuring each board.

@zephyr1408 2 года назад

Thank You Spencer for the video! I do not hv much experience with these however, I am not afraid to try (maybe not a 14” out of the starting gate but an 8 or 10” ? I learned being a good finish carpenter means a problem solver! I really enjoy my chosen craft! Thank you again Spencer ! Keep ‘em coming buddy and I will clear space in my head for em!

@christophercrawford2736 2 года назад

I had a feeling that the floating desk I built for my sister wasn’t going great because I was using my job site tablesaw instead of a track saw. Around five minutes in what you mentioned has convinced me that I need to get a track saw. And I’ve been leaning towards the Dewalt one because I have all the batteries for the 20 V and FlexVolt stuff. I currently don’t really do any carpentry in my business though.

Thank you for showing this process. Do you have a video on how you price for labor on this finish carpentry? Would love to learn what is the best way to start and build a small side-hustle without breaking even on a job like this or being the least expensive carpenter on bidding jobs without charging enough. Any advice for a newbie, Spencer?

@kleincarpentry1438 2 года назад

Be sure and drop the glue right underneath where you are working, so you can step in it and have it stuck to the bottom of your shoe. Love it! ((=

@thomasalison6188 2 года назад

Nice job! White Oak can get splinter along the mitered edge, so a bit more of a challenge to close up the joint. Also Mohawk Burnt Umber epoxy putty is an excellent option to use on nail holes, & gaps for White Oak, in blends in very well!!

@InsiderCarpentry 2 года назад

It really does...that is one advantage of using a table saw, the blade is pulling down so much less splintering.
