[@BraDolMag1]

Just stumbled across your channel. What an inspiration your skill set is.

[@framnerdan]

Thank you!

What brand/size concrete nails are those. I am about to do a project just like that and was thinking i needed to sink bolts. And coffee "is" my vise...☕

[@framnerdan]

Brand name is not sure but 21/2” long

[@SawyersMusic]

I like coffee too 👍

[@framnerdan]

Haha ☕️

Im amazed how good those concrete nails work. Here in California we have to shoot them in with a Hilti

[@framnerdan]

I just find it easier to hand drive them.

[@FritsvanDoorn]

Super! I saw that you keep those walls a bit from the concrete. Why is that? Thank you.

[@framnerdan]

Insulation. Great question. It would make sense if I filmed it when I did what we call the frost wall. A frost wall is a wood framed wall 2” from the concrete for insulation and drywall

[@psyskeptic9979]

I wonder why they built houses out of wooden frames in the US and Canada, but mostly in brick in the UK? Does anyone have insight into why?

[@framnerdan]

Maybe moisture. Also readily available building materials

hey love your videos! do you think biggers guys can become framers? I have done prefab framing and drywall but dont know if I would make it would make it doing stright framing. keep up the amazing work!!!!!

[@framnerdan]

Yes I think that could happen. Thank you chubbz

No damp proof between timber and concrete?

[@framnerdan]

Pressure treated and technically it is dry. Thanks for the question
