Jane is wonderful. I've watched other people do what she does and NO ONE explains things the way that Jane does. I remodeled my kitchen and saved 10s of thousands of dollars, literally, because Jane gives you clear, concise and easy to follow instructions. Thanks a million Jane.
As a non-English speaker, I appreciate it when people talk slow and clear. That is why I understood every word that came out of your mouth in this Video & it has been very well done. Thank You. Language is Language, and it matters how you use it
I'm an Engineer. A Biomedical Engineer. I don't know squat about screws and bolts and stuff. My wife who is a Civil Engineer wants me to start fixing stuff. So, I went to graduate school and got a Master's in Mechanical Engineering. I can design stuff. But they never let me handle welding and taking things apart ha ha! So, I watch videos like this to learn! Well done ma'am! Thank you!
@@TheRosiebeamI see someone's brain has departed their skull. The fellow was saying he was learning the practical application of the stuff he's formally educated on.

12 hours after watching your video, I successfully completed my 22×30 concrete porch with strike anchors and a powerful hammer drill (of course we learned the hard way that a regular drill would not work on concrete- lost a day)... HOWEVER, thank you very much! We were able to drill 80 concrete holes and ground 20 post bases under 2 hours with the proper tools and anchors!! After using the rental hammer drill with ease, I went out and purchased my own personal hammer drill!! I love it!!
Thank you. An excellent video and I just want to pass on that you have a natural talent for explaining/teaching that im very grateful. I can see why you have so many subscribers. Right, I'm off to build my gazebo
I'm pretty handy as a retired utility lineman, and I always recommend your videos to my beginner DIY friends. You're a great teacher, but one small quibble on this video is that you could have shown a variety of clamps to illustrate why you might be using these fasteners in the first place.
@@UtilityMailer: Going to school doesn’t make you intelligent. I have know many people with “degrees” and they are dumb as a rock. I prefer to be naturally smart.
"My quarantine todo list" I've had this ceiling fan for three years and six minutes with you has given me the confidence that three handymen couldn't to install this thing!!! I love you, thank you!!!
Leah, I just wanted to say that this video totally saved my butt today. Made the difference between success and complete failure. Thanks for all of your help.
Fantastic!! Thank you for sharing this item with us. Doesn't everyone have something hard to nail into and we're buying special and expensive bits for endless drilling? This is absolutely amazing!
Hi Leah! :) Thank you so much for a simple, how to do it yourself video! It is exactly what I was looking for so I could feel confident enough to do my patio project! I bought all the materials and the only thing that has been holding me back is to install the bases with sleeve anchors onto the concrete! Love it!!! Now, I am really excited!!! :) 1st comment ever on a UA-cam video! You definitely deserve many applauds for a job well-done. Not only that, I feel extremely encouraged by you!!! :)
Nice video. Great info for any DIYer to have. TIP: Make sure when driving threaded anchors to back the nut off the end until end of the thread is recessed below the nut face a tad (so you are pounding on the nut not the threaded rod). This will keep the hammer from buggering up the end of the threads making it difficult to remove the nut when attaching whatever the fastener is to anchor to the concrete.
Your gift of knowledge, instruction, and guidance, is priceless. I appreciate ,and am grateful for your energy, and time to share and demonstrate in detail this information. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thank you! I live in Switzerland and every surface of my apartment is poured concrete. You have given me the information and the confidence to move forward with decorating and lighting my apartment.
Awesome! Thank you for sharing this. I learned a whole lot! Never in my lifetime that I uses nuts and bolts and what’s more with different kinds. Thank you and thank you. I really appreciate this! It helps big time!
Great video. I used the blue ones. The countersink is nice because you're almost always screwing wood to concrete. So it sinks itself into the stud or plywood.
just so you know, I'm building a new deck for my grandpa who has done everything for me, hes a little too old to be working out in the heat and I wanted to surprise him with a new porch for the front of his house since he always talks about wanting one. I grew up without a father figure and since my grandpa worked in coal mining for about 65 years he was out of the country a lot of the time. so I never really got taught how to build anything or work on anything, but I didn't let it stop me im a successful welder now and I own two welding companies, I watch your videos for things i don't know how to do with this, like concrete anchors and such. you've filled a big whole in my building knowledge and you're helping people do great things.
I’ve never wanted to get one of these hammer drills. Now, after watching this, I refuse to drill ANYTHING around the house until my wife gets me a hammer drill! Our anniversary is a month away! (Obviously I will drill something immediately if she tells me to because I am a well trained hubby, and I like to live, but one can hope!)
Damn! I can do anything myself with the guidance of a detailed descriptive video...thank you Jane. I've been trying to learn how to be independent with my house maintenance. Carol
Also, if you want to nail in regular nails, drop a piece of wire in there, and pound the nail in right along side the wire, and it'll stay, like a nail in wood. If you want to remove the nail, especially if you're using a duplex nail, just use a nail remover or the claw on a hammer, and yank it out. Something I learned in carpentry at community college. I watched to learn about the screws. Thanks for the video.
I've never secured anything to concrete and wanted to find a good video to understand what to do. This was the first one that came up and the first one I watched. It is also the only one I watched because it was done in a precise and easy to understand manner. Thank you!
Thanks! Great presentation. Keep it simple. Keep it straight. Avoid trade "lingo" - if possible. Being a certified idiot I appreciate a straight delivery. I like doing things myself, but I will always be an amateur when I've never done it before! The dawning of wisdom is awakening to how little you really know...
Thank you for this! my tip: instead of a can of compressed air, I use a child's air balloon pump- place the tapered nozzle into the hole and blow out the debris.
Or consider vacuuming out the dust, instead of breathing the crystalline silica. Silicosis is major bummer, which is why all new concrete drills will soon come with dust vacuum attachments.
I'm trying to figure out how to hang a picture on a wall that happens to be concrete. This is the best video I've seen so far, not because you tell me how to hang a picture, but because you fully explain the different taps and how a hammer drill works. Thank you -- this is great!
Wedge anchors look similar to Sleeve anchors but can only be used in solid concrete, not in other masonry materials such as brick or hollow block. Why? Do you have a video of a wedge anchor cut away failing in something other than concrete?
Umm, I hate to ask a stupid beginner's question but..... if you are tightening the nuts to make the bottom of the anchor flare out then how do you attach something to the anchor. Did you forget to mention that once the anchor is set you can remove the nut and washer and attach whatever you need to?
yes i was wondering the same thing, expected to see a video demonstrating the installation of an anchor for a lag screw for example altho i ges at the beginning you didn't show that as one of your examples so i shuddint have been surprised. i already own too many tools and have no room but i ges i'm going to have to finally go out and get a hammer drill. absolutely great video, patient clear instructions, no ego. i will look for more of your stuff on UA-cam.
I attached my hanging bed to the concrete ceiling using 4 sleeve anchors per rope, and it‘s holding up wonderfully :) Thank you for this informative video!
CV this is the exact comment I was looking for. I was like why did she cut the video short? And say she only went half way.lol But this video did help me out. Very well put together.
Excellent! Everything you need to know about concrete anchors, taught quickly and efficiently by a very pleasant instructor. Thank you for the helpful video.
Wow! 7 years later and this video is still educational and helping people learn. THANK YOU for teaching young women like me these kind of things. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos :)❤

Super great video. Nice and clear pronunciation and demonstrations of each piece. I like how you provided details of each mounting piece and their differences of permanent and non-permanent. Great job!!

Thank you for this! my tip: instead of a can of compressed air, I use a child's air balloon pump- place the tapered nozzle into the hole and blow out the debris.
I use the one that came with my nikon camera kit.. squeeze squeeze.. lol
I use a small pouch that is taped underneath the hole and vacuum the hole itself to get the dust... much cleaner... 😁
Or consider vacuuming out the dust, instead of breathing the crystalline silica. Silicosis is major bummer, which is why all new concrete drills will soon come with dust vacuum attachments.
Thanks. This really helped me install those sleeve anchors into my wall.
Great video. Thank you ma'am!
you're welcome, and thanks!
Here's a tip ...Run the hammer drill bit at a lower speed. It won't get hot and blunt quick.. AND at a slower speed it will cut faster.
Nice video !!!! Just for curiosity, u could have broken a part that brick and showed us the splitting inside.
Just perfect simple and easy steps with excellent speech rate so that I could understand. Thank you so much.

Wedge anchors look similar to Sleeve anchors but can only be used in solid concrete, not in other masonry materials such as brick or hollow block. Why? Do you have a video of a wedge anchor cut away failing in something other than concrete?
Jules Bartow the wedge bolts strength relies entirely on its threads cutting into the concrete, so having as much thread contact as possible is best.
thank you so much.
no other videos explained this so simply and clearly.

+Theresa M you would put what you want to assemble with a hole in it then insert the anchor through the hole, and go for it
+Theresa M yes with that type of anchor you would do as you said.
