    From an historians point of view for a house with no architectural merit the amount of work that is going into it is mind blowing. It is very interesting to witness the NZ building code and how much stricter it is than here in Canada. I hope you enjoy it for a very long time.

      Well, a lot of the work is because Scott obviously enjoys carpentry and because it's interesting to watch. For example, he could have saved money and energy with simple vinyl replacement windows but it's much more interesting to watch him rebuild the existing wood sashes with double glazed panels. Scott puts in the work, gets the views and in return gets free materials and tools and sponsorships. Not sure what you mean about the stricter NZ building code - NZ has a huge mold problem because of lax building codes over the years.

    Scott and Jess, Been watching your show for ages and I’ve commented a few times, but have forgotten to mention that your style of delivery has given me the confidence to tackle jobs around the house. I appreciate that you are down to earth, self-deprecating and knowledgeable… but you also break down big jobs into sections which in turn, shows the average Joe how manageable things can be.
    Now I’m not replacing a beam or footing to my house but your videos did give me the confidence to build a beautiful deck off the side of our house this summer… in fact, as my friend came to help out French doors in… I constantly was laughing and quoting your “but can he hang a door” story.

    Hey Scott! Another extra to compensate for the compromised lateral load (exterior walls falling outwards), you spoke about with the little diagram, would be to put straps along the under side of the joist and up the side of the beam, before installing the joist hanger. As at the moment it’s just a few product nails into the beam that’s essentially holding the truss type system (triangle) together 🧐👌🏼
    Rate the videos, I have learnt a lot and you’ve definitely helped me become more thorough!!

    I think it would be a good idea to strap the underside of the rafters across the cut to maintain a tension path (probably part of the reason they were lapped in the first place) and prevent roof spread. To deal with the offset you could sister on some timber to the rafters on one side of the cut so you can run the straps straight.
