Get yourself a pair of Crescent (or equal) locking c-clamps to hold the stud tight to the track before running in the mini screw. This will save you much frustration. I was a union carpenter for 30 years and I installed miles of steel studs.

Ron is a professional. I like to wear gloves to protect skin from sharp corners and exposed screws. Let's get some more funding and material Ron!

Excuse me sir you're going to have to pay for all this, and you can't start building in the middle of the aisle 😂

Love these short nuggets of knowledge!

@KY_REDDYNESS Год назад

That's really surprisingly simple.

@robsmith6281 2 года назад

Everyone shopping. Ron started building metal stud walls in the store.😅

@chrisburns5691 2 года назад

Sir? Are you going to be paying for all that?

@vinceveltri7732 2 года назад

Did my basement using metal studs. Walls are true and in the scary event of water, the drywall can be cutout and replaced without the fear of mold on a wooden stud.

@chrisburns5691 2 года назад

They will rust and rot away if exposed to water though. Wood just rots differently.

Great Video Ron! Your the best! Have you heard about Connectubes? It is framing system using 1 1/2 galvanized rectangular steel tubes that are connected easily with steel couplers. So there is no welding. A lot of people are using it now for bbq frames and fire pits. The company sells it wholesale to the public for around the same coast as 18 gauge studs. It would be great if you can make a video with it! Best Regards.

Good job friend

@jessicasmith9599 2 года назад

The issue we’ve run in to with these is when it comes to hanging heavy items (such as tv’s) any tips on hanging things on walls with metal studs? Is there any value in trying to find a metal stud and hang from it?

@chrisburns5691 2 года назад

Safest option is to put in backing when framing, or open wall up and install after. I have done this for very heavy items such as wall mounted counters. For a TV, a few zip toggles into the metal studs should work. You can also install a finish piece of plywood across 2 or more studs then hang mount to that, so weight is distributed. Ply could be painted wall colour, black works well too.

@Dimythios Год назад

Fully agree with you. Interior at best. Sorry been in the construction field for 45 years. It's meh for interior.

@stephenwhittington5853 Год назад

Wood backing

@EivinSukoi 7 дней назад

Exactly what I want it to ask , you hit the nail on the on the head .

@jaybrown4891 7 месяцев назад

The biggest problem is those screws you are using to connect the studs to the top/bottom plates. When drywall is applied the screws cause the drywall to kickout so it doesn't lay flat. This is a real problem around doors and corners. Also, metal studs are a full 3 5/8in. 2 x 4's are 3 1/2in. Consequently, standard pre-hung doors frames are not wide enough to fill the opening in the steel stud framed wall for doors.

@stevelopez372 7 месяцев назад

Yes in 1993 I saw some of the first steel stud homes built in SoCal. To deal with the issue you mentioned Resilient channel was attached to interior framing members. I don’t recall how door installs were handled but they built and sold 75 units. However the Home builder went back to standard construction for later phases. In those days there was a learning curve for building production homes from steel.

Good job Ron

I wish Home Depot would let me make a video in their store.

@GeneralChangFromDanang Год назад

Can these be drilled and riveted as well? I'm not sold on the screws for fastening.

@juanlanda967 8 месяцев назад

Yes you can, however have you tried to see the integrity of the screws? They're specifically designed for this application

@dddmmm21 23 дня назад

But yow do you cut the studs to size? And how would you attach a channel backer plate halfway from bottom to top (since channel seems to be made to embrace the studs from the outside)?

@cinders302 2 месяца назад

Are those the correct type of tin snips to use for straight cuts?

@mrmarshal0131 2 года назад

Hey buddy I was wondering if you could do a video on making the dog run one that could keep the dogs from digging out as well

@lakersbaby6754 7 месяцев назад

Are metal studs strong enough to use for cabinet framing? Like hanging doors on the metal studs?

@TehEpicEvraXD 2 месяца назад

Yes

@pqrstsma2011 2 года назад

those holes for the grommets and wires look pretty big to me.... are the studs still able to hold the weight of the building after those holes have been punched out?

@chrisburns5691 2 года назад

Most steel studs aren't used for bearing walls, especially this application he is showing light gauge ones being sold at home center. Those are just for partitions, heavier gauge ones can bear loads, they still have the cut outs, just stronger gauge of steel.
