The Two Things They Don't Tell You About Nailing On Trim! 

Just wait until I have my newly designed orientated shirts ready! Hopefully they come in the next couple weeks😀

I didn’t have to read that one from the nonexistent carpenters handbook. Orient is a lot shorter to say than orientate! Haha and it turns out it’s the correct way to say it.

There is no such word as “orientate”!

orientaters (My new nickname for Japanese sweet potatoes)

Orientate, as he said, is also correct (British English). This is RU-vid and so an international audience - he can say what he pleases since he’s offering advice and good advice at that.

Can confirm.

*takes a swig while chewing* You meant beer AND pizza, right?

Cheers😂🍻

Thanks buddy

Thanks Luc I appreciate you watching all the way to the end!

Thanks Joey

Thanks Chip, glad the caulking vid was a help

Thank you

Glad to hear someone who actually knows what they are talking about, I’ve been a trim carpenter for 40 years and this video is very misleading.

Thanks 🍻

best wishes on future projects!

Lol. Similar experience for me as well

Excellent tip

A minor note on your minor note: If shooting into the curved edges, remember to set the depth on your gun, especially if you're using crown staples. You'll save yourself much time by not having to go over everything with a nail set.

DIY’ers and their “YoU dOnT EvEn NeEd To SaNd” gets me every time 😂

@@Zcasey1932 I'm a full-time painter. How perfect you want the finish will depend on what part of the country/world you live in.

Watch out for little indentations from the tool without the rubber foot. Softer woods will have noticable dents

Thanks for checking out the video!

@@TheFunnyCarpenter thank YOU for m,imo them👍🏻

Ouch!!! 🍻

18 gauge is good for trim; 16 is overkill. Although I have occasionally used 16 for thick baseboard.

Pressure regulators for air compressors are available, they generally have a knob on top for pressure adjustment and a glass or plastic bowl on the bottom to capture some of the condensation that builds up in the tank over time. Speaking of the condensation, in case you’re not aware, there’s a valve on the bottom of the compressor tank that is there to drain the condensation buildup. Compressor tanks will rust from the inside out if not drained regularly and they can (and do) explode with enough force to rapidly un-build the corner of your workshop when that rust gets bad enough after a few years of bad/no condensation maintenance. People have been killed by exploding air compressors. As for the cordless (battery or gas powered) vs. pneumatic nail guns, there are pros and cons to both. Battery/gas guns are more expensive to purchase, more expensive to service and weigh considerably more than pneumatic. They are, however, extremely convenient because you don’t need to carry an air compressor in your vehicle/trailer and you don’t need to run air lines through your customer’s house. They’re also easier to use in tight/awkward positions because they don’t have an air line tethered to them, dragging them around and getting caught on stuff. Pneumatic nail guns have the opposite pros and cons. I own both and I don’t even remember where my pneumatic one is stored, it hasn’t seen the light of day in at least a few years. Make of that what you will.

Air compressor should all come with a regulator attached that can be adjusted. If not I’m sure you could order one off Amazon. Have a great weekend buddy 🍻

@@TheFunnyCarpenter thanks bud🍻

@@TheIdeasGuy thank u so much bro!!!!

@@RPmusic06 you’re welcome mate.

I would put on some contact cement along the top and some Dap or PL along the bottom.

@@TheFunnyCarpenter interesting....... thank you

Filling nail holes is the painters job. Every painter has a preferred filler and method of filling. Usually theyd rather you leave it for them then use a product they arent used to using

​@@nicholaserkelenz6431 Thanks for the info. I forgot to mention I don’t deal with the situation often. If I was working with a team I would say to the carpenters to fill the wholes, even if it shink and is roughly made, I would fine tune at the end. A sort of way to deal and share the wholes issue.

It’s an interesting quandary

Lol except for this guy Al that I worked with he shot himself 7 times…. Bro you may want to move your hand slightly out of reach of the nail🍻

Definitely not

You seem nice:)
