Me at the beginning of the video: wow that looks like a lot of work
Me at the end of the video: wow that was a lot of work.
Very astute, LegalEagle.
All the effort you put into the filming (tight angles/spaces), editing, jokes/gags; is all appreciated and very much enjoyed. Thanks Jackman!!
Not going to lie, this was a particularly tricky one to film. Thanks for appreciating all the effort!!
i dont understand why he wouldn't just keep the plywood whats he gonna do next time stuff drips on the floor its a workshop use it as one
@@JackmanWorks Jackman20 does not work. Not even in all caps. Just letting you know. Already contacted Carolina.
No lie - the effort on the video is on par with the work in general.
I would've been so tempted to put the floor logos back together. It would've only set the project back another 2 years (at least).
Not going to lie, I definitely thought about it... because of coarse I did
If the rest of the world was as hardworking and patient as Jackman we would have a cure for cancer and be living on the moon.
Appreciated the commitment to the ‘staple gun’ bit. All the way to the end with staple gun sound effects when walking in the boots.
I was almost certain that you would put up a basketball hoop at each end just to make the flooring feel at home…or maybe a pickup game of HORSE once in a while. Looks great Paul!
I actually bought a rim so I can hang it on the french cleat wall, it just hasn't shown up yet 😂
Now that the workshop is all finished, it’s time to move again 🥺 that flooring looks amazing! A lot of hard work but definitely worth the sweat 😊
All of a sudden my 2021 beginner-woodworker-pallet-disassembly summer doesn’t seem so tedious.
Fantastic work and awesome video, per usual. Thanks for sharing!
I feel like I've graduated from pallet disassembly to flooring disassembly and I want to go back haha
@@JackmanWorks Haha, understandable. But man, you can’t beat the results of that basketball floor. I wonder if that company delivers to N Texas.
The next owner is really going to appreciate all the work you put into that shop when your wife gets transferred again.
Probably one of your best videos. Writing, shooting, gags, all of it was great!
This video really had me floored. You totally nailed it. Think it's time to get hammered now. Thanks for sharing!
While I question your sanity in general, I admire your determination to do things right. :) Great project!
isnt it funny how when i'm feeling tired and discouraged (like i have been grinding too hard), a new jackman video comes out demonstrating another exceptionally challenging and time consuming woodworking project. now i'm inspired to keep going. thanks paul. #fistbump #brohug
I often watch your videos to watch you self-flagellate over some intensely work intensive pieces. This takes the cake.
Well done sir. My favourite - "I am just an Instagram model who is installing flooring"
Great looking floor! Also, my boyfriend needed to get a pair of steel toed boots for his new job about 6 months ago and I suggested Carolina partially on Jackman's support. He absolutely loves them, wears them at least 5 days a week. I know there are a lot of crappy and shady sponsorships on youtube, Carolina makes legit great footwear.
Bought my gym floor off Craigslist from a guy who salvaged it from a high school remodel. Yeah, the box truck. Mine was individual boards, no sections. Lots and lots and lots of moving,stacking, moving and stacking. It went into the first floor of the house I was building. When the plumber came in to do his part, he saw the unsanded pattern and I had to tell him the story. He got a funny look on his face. "I played on this floor." Then I got the columns salvaged from a Duke University frat house....
Reminds me when I was freshman in high school. Brand new basketball court was being installed. Nice job - looks great
Better than the previews on Instagram! Very nice, thanks for sharing. 👍
Wow, thanks!
Dude, it may have taken a long time and LOTS of hard work but the result is brilliant.
Yeah!! That’s was awesome mate
I won a pair of boots!! I can't believe it, I took a few days to figure out which pair to get (because they all look great) and ordered them tonight! Thanks Jackman and thanks Carolina shoe!!
Did you re-paint any 3-point arcs for throwing scraps into a bin?
12:52 That scene is priceless.
Great addition to the workshop!
I’m proud of you for taking the easy route and cutting the ends square! 😂
Dude, that would have killed my back, not being accustom to being bent over so much. Nice job!
I definitely felt this project in my body for weeks 😂
Absolutely love the floor! And I get a real kick out of your sight gags, transitions and overall sense of humour! Keep on keeping on!
1). I am deeply interested in finding a use for that much rubber footing.
2). The gag with eating the shaving spaghetti put the fear of god in me.
3). I am now compelled to check past videos to see if I can spot the gym wood.
1. Me too!! For a sense of scale, I think I have 4 full trash cans of them kicking around
2. I still have an after taste in my mouth
3. I'm honestly not sure how much it showed up, but it's definitely in the background of some videos if you look hard enough ;)
Nicely done! I would also be reluctant to start a project like that, but the end result was very satisfying!
Very nice video ! The flor looks so cool ! It's realy worth the effort you put in it, Great work !
That flooring looks awesome.
As always the best commitment to the bit out there. Nice cameo by the folding ruler.
Thanks for sharing. As I was watching I was thinking about all the work, time and thought that went into it. Love your stuff.
thanks so much for the love David
Your video editing and music choices are top notch. Great work!
Super cool! I got old hardwood maple flooring around the same time as you, @Jackman. Removed all nails using a nail gun (yes, there is a tool for that). And I agree the feeling of reusing materials and saving them from going to landfill - amazing!
Next video: "I'm MOVING!"
Always enjoy your videos and humor. Keep on creating you you you instagram model you.
OMG I love watching your vlogs!
You are AMAZING. The patience & determination you showed to relay that flooring is inspiring and off putting. I bet all the other aspiring models & military wives are so jealous.😂
Looking great!
I really enjoyed your 'well done' video and project it showed.
looks great!!!
That's a really nice ruler there at 11:04. Would be a shame if something happened to it.
I don’t know how to feel about this comment #toosoon #rip (rest in pieces)
Amazing project. And amazing editing skills
Great job, and bless you!
Great video man. Awesome use of that gym floor.
put some down in my man cave a few years ago. I felt your pain the whole way through! Wish could show you a picture.
Your videos are so good.
Damn man editing is top notch, great project
I knew you'd shopped at Brick & Board, but I did not expect to see a poster that I printed hanging on their window in your video. My shop used to be a few blocks from their old location. It's the BLM poster seen very briefly at 1:29.
Nice, Builders lives matter 👍
Wow great video that’s a lot of work but it looks awesome great job.
I love it! Did you ever consider just using the 5x5 sections? I know it would have reduced your ceiling height… But giant parquet!!
I definitely thought about it, but figured that long term it wouldn't hold up as well as just installing it piece by piece. Plus, I feel like that would have made for a boring video if I left it in panels (not that I factored that into the decision 😂)
I really like the floor as it is. I hope you keep it that way.
That spaghetti slurp of the shaving caught me so off guard 😂
gorgeous!
Awesome - and super impressive as always :)
I just found your channel today. This floor looks rad.
Wood workers are sometimes the best video editors.
Wow I have never seen such creative affiliate link whoring in my life. Thank you UA-cam algorithm for popping this in my feed bucket. Other than the elephants in the room awesome floor dude! I'm jealous!! EDIT: I'm totally Subscribing Now!!

YES
Great video, thank you.
i like the floor, looks cool
Check out reclaimed bowling alley wood. I made a desk from it a few years ago. Typically pin in the middle and maple at the ends. It is also a couple inches thick. Really great material.
When the sweat falls, don't forget to mop
About 2018, I purchases a basketball court from a church in the local area and paid $400 for 18,000 square feet of 1" thick maple, but I had to take ti apart before they installed the new court. I had no idea what I was doing, but it didn't have any slats holding it together or rubber feet. A 1/18" rubber runs were under it. We started with the circular saw cutting a 2' x 2' foot square to how it was held together. We discovered there were no nail and it was all snap fitted with the tongue and groove. We cut down the middle of two pieces and pried it up and snapped off each piece. Each full piece was 16 feet long and shorter ones towards the end. As we removed them, the 16 foot ones were loaded into a flatbed and the shorter ones into a trailer. We had the entire court taken apart in two full days and another day to unload it into a 40 foot container on my property. I've been using it for projects. On the back of a lot of the boards was the manufacturer in Sweden who made and installed it. I emailed them the numbers on the boards and they actually had the file from the original order, delivery and install from 1981. I sold a lot of the wood over the years as there is no way I could use it all in my lifetime. I have about half of it left and next year I retire and plan to do woodworking full time. It's amazing what you can find for sale. I know I stole the wood for that price, but I did put two had days of easy labor in dissembling it. I was shocked that not one nail was used. Your floor looks awesome.
This whole process looked so painful 😂 but totally worth the outcome 100%!!
Прекрасная работа!!! Отличное видео!!!
What I like, you have no clue how to do it, but figure it out. Perfectly fits my team out here. 😛
That is one unique floor.
heck yeah. I picked up very little of my kids old jr highs old gym floor. they put it in a dumpster and before i could get there most of the good stuff was gone.
Always love seeing what you come up with. That looks great man
Glad you enjoy it!
A unique catchy line 14:25 on so many levels 😮
Very cool
excellent
Just was you in a boat paint commercial! I didn't know you were an actor lol.
Saw the post on instagram with the consumption of the curl… but after watching the whole video, all I can think about is tasty, tasty skin cells…. Great edit as always.
I’ll be honest, it tasted spicer than I expected… maybe that was the added skin 🤷♂️
The floors in my house are reclaimed gymnasium floor... About 70-ish years ago my grandfather installed them. He got as far as sanding them (poorly) and that was it. (You can still see traces of the old varnish around the edges of the walls)😅
amazing video on the story of the floor......also me not spending 30 mins trying to pause at the right time to see the auction website .....nope not me haha
I like the way it looks. This might not be the best time to ask this, but, how much weight can your loft hold? just wondering.
Don't forget to put a basket ball hoop up on the wall, probably on the sloping wall. Cheers
a Like just for the spaghetti eating of the plane shaving!
Never refinish the floor, it looks awesome!
Id be curious to know the inside baseball on over under of the cost vs buying new.
Dude, pretty floor. Did you include washer rows so the floor can grow seasonally?
That Jackman guy can be a knucklehead sometimes but if he wasn't, we wouldn't get great content like this. I don't think I've ever seen a palm nailer used with a nailset before.
Bill
Shout out baltimore and Brick and Board!
That is a crap ton of work, my back hurt just watching you, but good job man, looks great. When doing the last row you broke out the track saw for something, what did you need that for? I thought you got rid of the tongue on the table saw…
Good question! Due to the imperfectness of the flooring, there were a few spots that had developed a bit of a wave when installing the main field of the flooring, so I had to trim off a little bit to get the final piece to fit in the gap
One of the main reasons I subscribed all those years ago was to see thixo do his-I mean-it's job. Man he's beauti-I mean-the beard-I MEAN, DAMMIT, the floor is beautiful. The floor, I like the floor.
Dad Sneeze!
I'm surprised you haven't learned to put down sacrificial paper to catch drips, overspray, blood, snot, & other random emissions that may occur when the occasional thing goes BOOM in the shop
Great video, I also bought some shoes
When you sanded the finish off the boards did it have one of the most unique chemical smells you've ever smelt? Almost sweet??? It's unmistakable... Just wondering...
pretty cool result!
Thanks!
Cool
12:20 - nice little nod to dave portnoy's pizza reviews, there!
Does Carolina Boots make size 17s?
If nobody else will say it, I will...
Don't refinish the floor. The almost 8-bit like effect from the previous finish tells a great tale and is something very few, if any, can say they have in their shop.
Although it's visually a bit busy, I honestly really like the unique look of it and kind of want to keep it, because once it's sanded it just looks like any old maple floor. My issue is that there is unevenness in the height of each piece of flooring since it's been installed and sanded once before, and then I shuffled all those pieces around. We'll see with time if that unevenness annoys me enough, if not, then it might just stay as it is, we'll see!
@@JackmanWorks good point, wouldn't have thought of that but it makes sense.
@@JackmanWorks could you do a flood coat of epoxy to address the level issue?
Looks good brother
Thank you!
somehow this man found a way to get pallets made of floor, to then turn around and make floor.
Any idea of which gym it came from?
Amazing work. Theres just one thing i didn't get: why sand down the boards close to the wall but not anywhere else?
He mentioned in passing in the video, it was because in the future when he eventually will sand the floor down to refinish it, a floor sander won't fit that close to the slantes wall, so he planed those boards down before installation so he won't need to fight with sanding them later.
