Came for the tutorial, stayed for the fantastic acting, great eye contact, and friendly nature of the video. I'm also convinced that Chris is a robot.
"That be great!"
Great job. This video shows the correct way to to build a basement from 1984. No amount of incense burning will be able to hide that damp, musty smell once the the wood and insulation start to wick moisture through the concrete. People, use sill gasket and PT lumber for your bottom plate if going directly over concrete. Install 2" ridged foam on the concrete walls so your studs are never in contact with a porous material. We knew this back in 2010 - not sure why this video was even produced.
What a beautifully done book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxo4aMFkUegBx-KHPIJlfwKPHu7kQXAR9N ! The text and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Joseph Truini got another winner! No one does it better! Love the Cape Cod Shed with the Blue door!
Hey Chris, hope you didn't want any electrical in that wall. Sounds great chuck.
omg. lmfao!!
Good point!
hahahahahaha amen
Lmaoooo! This just made me laugh so hard.
Funniest thing on UA-cam today. I laughed so hard.
I check this video every few months to just to read the new comments.
Sounds good, Chuck.
Chris caught Chuck cheating on his wife, and he's blackmailing Chuck into finishing his basement or he'll tell Chuck's wife.
Thanks for hav-- coming chuck.
I’ve watched a lot of construction, woodworking and electrical work videos, how did I miss this gem?
Installing the shims:
"Little further, little further, little further."
Legend has it, 5 hours of footage was cut from this section of the video.
not near enough likes for this comment
Brilliant!
Hey Chris....no need to run wires. Ok chuck....I'll use candles....good idea Chris.....thank you chuck!!!
These comments get me weak af, These dumbasses couldn't even put in a lightbulb right 😂
Oh c'mon they are using wireless receptacles nowadays, just like wi-fi Internet.
the eye contact and first name use is phenomenal
I like 5:12 ; "And pull the tigger...*looks deep into Chuck's soul*"
😂😂😂😂
hey chris! "we both don't know how to finish a basement!" sounds about right chuck!
shytown hahhaahah right hahaahahaha
hey chris, there's not moisture barrier between the cement and the insulation. sounds great chuck.
Rookie error, I stopped watching after that first, major mistake.
7:49..."Chris, now we're gonna need you to change into a new polo shirt."
"Sounds great, Chuck!"
Im about to frame my basement. Came for some knowledge. Glad I read the comments....
Same
@Lon Lonzinski Lol🤣🤣🤣
Hey Chris, I found this R13 paperback insulation from 1954, I thought it would be perfect for your basement. Sounds great Chuck.
I'm dead ahahah
Funny my house was built in 1954 and it has R10 paperback batt lol
They married shortly after this video, and now own and run a bed & breakfast in Vermont.
LMAO 😂
too funny
LOL, You guys got me crying with these comments!!
💀
Sounds great
"Chris, do stuff" "Okay Chuck" "Chris, thanks".
hahahaha!!!!!!
jared williams LMAO
Chris is getting real tired of Chuck's suggestive commands.
Right Jared, you are correct Jared, thanks Jared😂
I like to think these guys are life partners and this is how they address each other on a daily basis. This is also the tone they use when they argue with each other.
Chris: *bends over* "thats a great tip chuck" 4:18
lololololol
"Hey Chris, now I'm gonna give you a reach around." "Sounds good Chuck, let's get started!" Chuck and Chris proceed to put on safety glasses and ear protection.
Classic
This. Now this got me
Of the Rhodesian variety I assume...
Lmao
Thanks for coming out Chuck....I found your tools make things come a lot faster.
No problem Chris....glad you enjoyed the service.
Great video! but I think should be nicer if they at least let us know their names. Its hard to understand a video when you do not know the name of the guys in it.
“Make love to me Chris!” ... “Sounds great”
No it’s “sounds great Chuck” 👀 lol
These are the best awkwardness actors i have ever seen before! Well done !
Thanks for sharing, this is the best ever video of framing a wall so far and good detail.
What’s up chuck! Great video love the eye contact, you can really sense your passion for woodworking..
This is a great video. I learned a lot and also was entertained. Thanks, Chuck and Chris!
Nice video fellows. In our basement...we refered as "The weeping walls." We framed it out then stapled heavy plastic to these boards. Once the framing was up we applied the insulation then the dry wall. After 7 years we refer it as Dry Wall, no more weeping walls, no mold, no moisture seepage on the floor. etc. By the way we didn't apply for a permit...we also built a large, no power shed with without a permit. 10 years and it is still standing!
Came here for the tutorial, stayed for the cringe.
lmao same
Why did they need to make it so cringe
Ha lol that's funny
DEAD 🤣
Same here....the cringe is Funny as Hell........PRICELESS!!
Welcome to the Chris and Chuck show! Good job guys - keep it up!
This is what i was looking for,easy and simple to understand.
Thanks guys
I'm really glad Chris finally came out.
jimmy did a really good job following your directions!! He's pretty handy with a stapler!!
😂😂😂. Y'all got me crying with all this affection.
Sounds great Chuck.
Somebody, give them Oscars, please!
😅
That sounds great, Chuck!
Sure Chris
😝
Best actor in supporting role
Nice install even got the insulation on the right way paper on hot moisture side (inside of basement) . The nail gun sure makes it much more easier looking then a hammer / nails manually installs.
"Chris, I tested positive for COVID." "Sounds good Chuck."
chris sure is good at the "dear in the headlighs" look, great vid. lotsa help thanks chris
That sounds great Chuck.
Excellent video !!!
I enjoyed holding your tool, Chuck. Thanks, Chris.
Hey Chris, nice buns. Thanks Chuck!
"Chris we're going to have to execute order 66 now". "Sounds great chuck"
Sounds great chuck!
“Chuck” - Chris
“What’s that Chris” -chuck
“I love you chuck” -Chris
“Sounds great” -chuck
Hey Chris you’re sweating like you know what you’re doing.
Hey Chuck it’s cause you taught me thanks so much now my daughters friends can come over and enjoy it even more.
Ding ding ding
“Oh! I think I hear Trolley, Chris! Let’s go to the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Chris.”
“Sounds good, Chuck...”
That's a great tip, Chuck!
Powder Actuated Nailer would make anchoring that bottom plate to the floor MUCH easier. In case anyone was wondering. Got the $80 "Gun" version. Best cash I've spent in a LONG time.
Nice video!
WOULDNT THAT START A NEW PROBLEM….CRACKING BASEMENT FLOOR ?
"Hey, Chris, time to beg for your life."
…"Sounds great, Chuck."
Ok Chris, we have to make sure this wall is good and straight... unlike us. Sounds good Chuck.
"I forgot list a bullet proof vest in our list of tools Chris. You never know when someone will point a nail gun at you Chris." "Oh, great tip Chuck!"
People are hilarious. I’m so glad I watched this. Thanks, Chuck.
I came here for the tutorial....but the comments are PRICELESS and Funny as Hell!!!🤣😂
What were these guys' names?
Who cares. None of them are ever getting hired again after this video. LOL
Jack and Roy I think
@tammy stevesGreat comment Tammy
Thank you Jack
Huh?...
Chuck and Larry
Sounds great chuck
"Don't worry about the base Chris. It may rot in a few years because it's not treated wood but you'll be on to your next house by then."
“Sounds great Chuck.” 😂
sounds great Chuck
TOSS ONE BACK EVERY TIME YOU HEAR "CHRIS" & "SOUNDS GOOD CHUCK"! 🍻
Awesome Vid
Really Helped
Thanks
Sounds great!
Im supposed to be getting work done, but I just can't stop watching..
sounds great, sounds good
May not be any moisture in the walls, but Chris sure got some back moisture, isn’t that right chuck?
Can’t wait to see the mold grow in that wall chuck
The comments made this video an instant classic. hahahahaha
Yes Chuck, sounds good Chuck.
I like how he was pointing the nailer right at his gut.. that's great chuck.
And the Oscar goes to... anyone but these guys..
Sounds good Chunk 👌
Chris, Chuck, Chris, Chuck, Chris, Chuck, Chris, Chuck .... Thx 😂😂😂😂
Hey Chris, yes Chuck, are you ready Chuck, yes Chris.Lets do it Chuck, yes Chris, there is more to Chris and Chuck than the actual basement construction. LOL
that's a great tip chuck
good video!
Wow. Just wow, Chuck.
that's a great tip Chuck
This is an interesting and concise educational video.
I mean it's not trying to disguise that it's an educational video, and that's fine too. I think it works out quite well.
So I had a family member argue with me about this project in my basement. There are MANY different ways to do this and there’s pros and cons to each method it seems. I have a block wall foundation and decided to do it this way with stud framing and putting rolled insulation between the suds and wiring in outlets. My family member argued with me to get 1x3” furring strips and drilling them into the block wall, putting insulation board between all the furring strips and leaving about six inches from the floor in case it gets wet. The problems I see with doing it their way is the insulation board will be more expensive AND less effective, you can’t wire in outlets, drilling concrete block that many times is more work and a pain, and will look very tacky with a gap six inches off the ground.
Chuck: Next, we're gonna show you how to dig out part of your basement wall for a convenient place to bury any bodies
Chris: Sounds good, Chuck
i like this video!👍
easy guys. The video was about framing. electrical and plumbing are separate.
your camera guy sounds like he just ran a marathon Chuck
Most awkward host/guest interaction..."Back to you Chris!" "Thanks Chuck, back to you." Oh, just FYI. Not really a tutorial on how to frame walls....properly at least. Terrible product marketing and not the most efficient methods. I do not recommend this video for anyone looking to frame their basement walls. But for comedy...I highly recommend this!
Haha, yeah, huh,Ryan Manning?
"10-4 there, Chuck, good buddy!"
"Ahh yeah, copy that, Chris!"
"Uhuh, over and out, Chuck!"
Geeze!
...holy messed up...no moisture barrier or non contact protection ! ...still use that paperback insulation ???
All depends what part of the world your in. That would not meet code in my area but in warmer climates its probably fine. I still think even if it did meet code I would not want wood on concrete anywhere in my place.
Thanks Chris!
Well FPChris, that sounds like a great idea.
The information he is going to need is: A) How do I get the black mold filled insulation back out and thrown away six months from now? B) What to I do when the floor heaves and bows my upper floor because we nailed the wall tight with no gap (even shimmed it to insure contact)? Is it too late to put down the Trex plate under the wall so moisture cannot wick up into the bottom plate (which should be pressure treated)? Can we insulate the rim joists from the outside, or should we just wait until we tear out the walls to get rid of the mold and do them then?
A few rolls of Delta FL would go along way on the floor too Chuck to keep out the moisture--and you can build your walls right on it, no need for Trex or pressure treated (walls cannot be load bearing). Please stick to the compressed air CH, you do that well, but this job was a disaster...
You covered everything that I was thinking during the video.
I agree about the gap at the top of the wall. A lot of people think it needs to be shimmed tight like this video. No! I always make the wall quarter to half inch short. The nails easily bridge that gap and the wall is perfectly secure.
Some good points, except it's amazing to me that you think that the floor is going to move relative to the concrete wall a couple of inches away.
@@metallitech People think everything moves and flexes which is absolutely incorrect.
problem with delta MS is the moisture stays under that and can build up mold on the basement floor anyway and cause musty smell even worse. normally you have enough gap for it to air out, but unless you do a calcium chloride test you'll never know if it's going to work as you expect. second problem is if there's a leak you won't know about it.
some major issues here. first of all, you need a vapour barrier between the sole plate and the concrete or else that wood is going to mold. Also, batten insulation is a no-no in a concert basement, it's going to be mold city, you need to use vapour barrier at minimum but better would be closed cell Styrofoam. you need Styrofoam insulation on the top concrete sill too.
They also kind of forgot about the electric...
Could you frame on the parallel joist if that is exactly where you want your wall? Or do you need to have a block/cat?
One question regarding moisture and possible future mold concerns. I've been told there should be a few inches left between the back of the stud and the masonary wall to allow some air movement to avoid a moisture. Also, what's the code say about vapor plastic barriers? Does the paper backed insulation cover that issue. Another school of thought is to use the non paper backed insulation. Whats your opinion on that?
No vapor barrier chuck? It's awfully steamy in here
That was my first impression as well. Mike Holmes would be livid!
Chris, you can't do anything without me! Sure Chuck, you're my hero. Of course I am, Chris. Sounds good, Chuck.
Hey Chris , Nevermind . Sounds good chuck
Must be fun installing electrical after insulation...
LMAO, right?
Wireless receptacles. New invention.
Props to the cameraman who never laughed out loud! I would love to see the blooper reel!
Use bridging across joists. So if a top plate lands parallel to and between joists first nail several 2 x 4's perpendicular to the joist so that they bridge or connect the 2 joist (about every 24"). Then you can fasten the top plate to the 2 x 4. Also use steel studs instead of wood and ridged foam board instead of fiberglass insulation.
"Chris now we'll be sharing your wife."
"Sounds great chuck!"
Damn chris working up a sweat. Sounds good chuck
Despite many of the negative comments, these men did a great job framing the wall.
Your a joke!
Johnny Caretaker, his what is a joke?
Sounds good
