Scotty B! Jeff Pagnutti here! Man, it's very eerie! Week by week, I watch your updates and it's hilarious - we're in synch every single time. We bought around the same time as you and Jess and have a similar reno going. Opening things up, flush mount beam, permits, pireplace removal.. it's hilarious that I'll remove the fireplace and chimney, then the next day you've got a vid of you doing the same thing! You've pulled ahead of me as I have a pile of services to relocate in the wall removals, but looking forward to the open space too! Thanks for the vid, bro!

Straightening walls ... That was one of the firsts episodes I saw, and I loved it, and I used your tips and tricks when I had to straiten a wall in my kitchen when I renovated it. Was magnificent and got accolades from the people present, and I also remembered to point to your channel :)
Just pausing at 4 minutes laughing my head off at the "you never really clean up a mess you just relocate it" comment. I'm 18 months into a renovation and can gurantee this is the truest thing I have ever heard on UA-cam, especially for lived-in renovations, just constantly moving things from one room to another everytime another job breaks out
One big room! So happy for you guys. Controversy makes for good engagement on youtube funny enough. Who knows, maybe that video was what your channel needed to push to the next level. BTW I went to Squarespace for my business because of your recommendations. Used your link as well of course. Cheers Scott and Jess!
Hello Scott.. I was one of the critics with the wall straightening episode, one of the first ones I watched and I have been a fan since.. your content is always informative and clear and I haven’t had anything more to complain about, in fact I recommended your channel as a way to acquire LPB points in one of the LPB board’s surveys for suggestions to improve skills maintenance. I would much rather watch one of your exciting episodes than read a dry Branz article any day!
Squarespace ads are everywhere on UA-cam and I'm kind of tired of them. However, the way you segue into them is so beautiful that I end up watching the ads here anyway. This video isn't the best example, but I thought it was time I commented. I skip everyone else's ads, so Squarespace really owes you
I love this channel so much. I've been so inspired and learned so much watching your videos that I recently started my own business doing small renovations and projects in my community. Cheers from North Carolina, all the best to both of you! House is really coming together!
I’m a train driver and you can tell Jess that “shunt” is definitely a word. Also in the railways (the ones I’ve worked in) those boards that raise up the edges are called “hungry” boards. Some railways put them on their wagons to get more product in. ✌️
Great video as always. Got to do a full video from start to finish of the renovation once it's all finished. Everyone notices the wrong things that be done but the other things like getting the rafters all even and every to be "Scott Brown perfect" no one would say its wrong.👍👍
i always enjoy the technical details regarding the structure of the house. Being from Portugal where houses are not made from wood, its pretty cool to see how the weight of the roof is distributed by the several types of support.
Was just sent a wats app number from someone using your picture. Reported it as spam as they only had 7 subs so knew it couldn't possibly be you. Love to you both keep up the good work.
G,day Scott and Jess Carpentry from Sydney Australia. I am very impressed with the multi purpose double LVL roof beam and uplifting wind force connections. Serving as a hanging/strutting beam, with hex head screws close together, can be difficult. 🌟 🌲"In the past we would leave a 10mm 1/2" under the beam for deflection.
Re: the wall straightening video. I shared it with a builder who contracts me on the regular, he said he'd heard of doing it that way but had never done it himself. It seems "furring strips" is the approved way here in Virginia USA. They also drink from wells here, so take that into account.
Outstanding Exciting Episode. Always something new with a remodel. Especially enjoy your calm, practical approach to solving whatever you encounter. Jess is quite a trooper. Not afraid to jump in and help out. I sent a donation via Paypal. Please use it to treat Jess for next Smoko.
I'll never forget the first time I saw someone doing that wall straightening technique. He was an old school carpenter 70 years old and I thought he was losing his marbles. It was a lesson in more ways than one.
So there you are eating a fresh strawberry and I just had 45cm of snow fall at my place. Yes I am envious. Cheers from the left edge of Canada. ~ulrich
Hi Scott, that video where you straightened the stud wall, was the first video I saw of yours, haven't missed an episode since, don't listen to the negative comments, always get some who think they know better. The channel has taken on a different approach, with the inclusion of Jess, she's funny too. Enjoying the house renovation videos.
I've come across a similar problem and we drilled down thru Ramset glue some threaded rod into the step and then use some expanding mortar to build the concrete up below the sill and then tighten the bolt once dry engineer was happy simple quick solution.
i always thought you post all your videos like half a year late but at some point i realized, youre at the other side of the fucking planet! your Seasons are completely different. seeing someone eat strawberries in December and saying its their season is wild
If it just for tie down, then run a m12 cyclone rod. Chemset into the concrete drill a 14mm hole through all plates and nogs, add your 50mm x 50mm washer on top with nut. We have to use this method beside every opening.
Love your channel. NZ looks so beautiful. One of my favorite countries, I learn something new every time I watch. I also like that you are learning as you go as well.
I was thinking about the small timber blocks on top of the beam that support the roof load. You have put them in at an angle which means that the roof load will have a small component of horizontal force pushing the top of the beam sideways. I think it would have been better to have these vertical with an angle cut to the rafters so the force is just downwards
In the old AU/NZ cut roofs it’s common to have struts. The rafters are small 2x6. They typically fasten a beam to the rafters then place a few 4x4 struts between that and the ceiling(hanging)beam which the 2x4 ceiling joists are hung. Those struts are always installed perpendicular to the rafter. The old boys would “fix” them with only a few nails in each end of the 4x4. That was before “uplift” was considered. Point being is Scott installed them correctly according to our framing manuals.
@@aspees That is a different situation. It is common here in the uk to see struts supporting purlins that are perpendicular to the roof but they transfer the load down to something rigid or are balanced by another brace from the opposite side of the roof. This load in this roof is onto the top of a very tall beam which is unrestrained, it is not the same thing
Been following every vid since episode 10 and I LOVED the wall straightening tip with the fletch plates! Wasn't until I went back through the City & Guilds carpentry books (Uk building teaching standard) that I read about them and was amazed that I learnt about it from you and had it confirmed in that book. Love the vids, Scott! :)
Excellent progress Scott, the internal support will give your grey matter a bit of a workout but I’m positive you will sort it out. Thanks for the latest exciting episode Scott,looking forward to the next.👍👍
Another exciting episode! Reno videos are always enjoyable, especially in countries with different codes and customs. Appreciate the time you take to educate viewers, Scott, such as with the string leveling. Also impressed by Jess's kickboxing technique!
Learning everyday :) Shunt verb past tense: shunted; past participle: shunted 1. push or pull (a train or part of a train) from the main line to a siding or from one track to another. "their train had been shunted into a siding" 2. provide (an electrical current) with a conductor joining two points of a circuit, through which more or less of the current may be diverted. "these components are designed to shunt electrical surges away from microcircuits"
Should get a 500 year old house like ours. The wavy roof is character. No string lines needed here! Come to think of it the whole house is riddled with lots of character 😉
Your easiest solution would be to pour a concrete block in there with bonding agent & some rebar to spike it to the step.... pour it this afternoon & by the time you are ready, tomorrow or the day after it would be set.
Ok, I wondered in a previous video why they didn't frame the living room roof for the whole rectangle in the first place including the problem room. I guess I didn't see or get that that front room used to be a porch.
Scott, I'm still very curious how the roof loads are distributed with this new arrangement. Can you provide a section diagram of the roof truss structure to explain the forces involved? I'm concerned that the spreading force that you described acting on the tops of the exterior walls is not accounted for. If it's an issue for the tops of the walls, then it's an issue for pulling the joist hangers off of the new structural beam. They're not rated for tensile loads. Do you plan for strapping?
Just an observation mate, Jess is way to handy with that Ripper Bar and Demolition hammer. Ah wid be very careful about winding her up . Just a we observation from one Scotsman to another.😂😂😂
Just pull out that stump of block, drill a few dowels (like the footings) and pour it full of concrete. Given the existing construction I'd imagine you could even wet-set your tie downs for the section of shear wall.
Seeing everyone getting the beam together was a bit like watching an Avengers movie. I'll be curious to see the renovation continue, but that wall being out of the way makes that room seem huge :)
what if you use the block and string line method but the rafters on either end are too low? Then all the rafters would be seemingly too high in between.
Rafters on the end aren’t in free space, they are probably close to good and if not are fixed in the wall framework. Rafters in the middle are springing around in free space and can be flexed to a straight plane.
nothing beats a good demolition indeed . I just helped the sister and brother-in-law do their bathroom . Their house is probabaly the same age .you and Lady Jess and Josh Chapman's channel are great kiwi building " online classrooms"" indeed

Plenty more inspections to come. Pre-lining next when everything to that point will be checked again. Usually about 10 or 12 with a new-build in total.
Engineer will come by to sign off the beam and then we will get a framing inspection by the local council. I want to get more of the framing done so I can get more signed off at once.
Hey Scotty, question. At 2:20 what’s the brand &/or part number on that short prop you used in the roof? Im in desperate need of them. I tried looking for their introduction to the channel a while back but couldn’t find what exciting episode it was in. Every time I spy them on the window sill in the shed it takes me down a rabbit hole of googling & all I can find is the fastcap version. But these potentially look like Bessey? Any info is much appreciated!!
Guessing you're going to use Booker rod and chemset the rod through timber packing into the foundation. I'm not carpenter but I'm pretty sure they don't make 400mm dynabolts

Hey mate I’m apprentice carpenter from NSW been watching for years!! Love the content at smoko
If you were in Auckland it would have rained three times when the window came out. Nice to be in Nelson. Always sunny. I grew up in picton.
I'm from the Philippines and I like watching your videos to learn more about carpentry😊

Yep, that was the first SB video I saw, then kept getting recommended until I subscribed 😊
I'm one of those Subs that saw that vid on adjusting the studs! It's been fun watching all your projects since. Good on yer, Scott (and Jen).👍
Wall straightening was the first video of yours that i had ever seen and I was so impressed with your video that I subscribed &commented.
Same method of (non bearing) wall straightening used all over in the USA. Just typically sloppier than you make it look yourself.

We straighten the walls in Australia the same, it's also in the timber framing standard. It's looking good dude, keen to see the end result.

That’s why we use plywood on all exterior walls before weather board
Haven't heard of Greedy Boards, but used 'Hungry Boards' a lot
Big props to you guys :D
Now we’re getting into the good shit. Loved the video, can’t wait for the next.
I am confused by this
Another great episode guys. And Scott I’m really liking the beard mate. Looking good 👍
Excited for new exciting episode 😄
My brothers roof rafters were cut to straighten them , they didn't even plate it after
Straighten studs (crippling) prescribed in Oz as per your method subject to 600mm reinforcing cleats being installed.
Learning everyday :)
Shunt
verb
past tense: shunted; past participle: shunted
1.
push or pull (a train or part of a train) from the main line to a siding or from one track to another.
"their train had been shunted into a siding"
2.

"these components are designed to shunt electrical surges away from microcircuits"
Round here (NZ) rail yards are actually called shunting yards.
Wondered why my wall had those cuts in them.
I'm sure i'll find an Ants nest or two when doing exterior walls.
The horizontal supports in the framing, I really hate them as a electrician…
Why not fill in the "hole" where the step is with some concrete and anchor it to the foundation?
Should get a 500 year old house like ours. The wavy roof is character. No string lines needed here! Come to think of it the whole house is riddled with lots of character 😉
Great work Scott! Thanks for the video!

"I love this time of year" says Jess as I'm working in -15 questioning my life choices

That had to be terribly satisfying!
Wouldn't it be simpler to pour concrete around the step to make it one continuous foundation?
Just pull out that stump of block, drill a few dowels (like the footings) and pour it full of concrete.
Given the existing construction I'd imagine you could even wet-set your tie downs for the section of shear wall.
Continually relocating mess you just relocated is definitely the worst part of living in your renovation! Great to see the problem room coming down.
Seeing everyone getting the beam together was a bit like watching an Avengers movie. I'll be curious to see the renovation continue, but that wall being out of the way makes that room seem huge :)
I don't why people hated the technique but that's exactly how it's done if you need to straighten a timber stud wall.
nice job

Rafters on the end aren’t in free space, they are probably close to good and if not are fixed in the wall framework. Rafters in the middle are springing around in free space and can be flexed to a straight plane.
Good point, I didn’t do it on camera but I checked the rafters on each end with a straight edge first. They were good, important first step :)
would it not have been easier to use acrows to support the ceiling rather than building and dismantling those frames?
That ceiling beam looks like there's more metal than wood!
nothing beats a good demolition indeed . I just helped the sister and brother-in-law do their bathroom . Their house is probabaly the same age .you and Lady Jess and Josh Chapman's channel are great kiwi building " online classrooms"" indeed
Shunt is an act of pushing or shoving something.

I understand the theory for straightening out roof joist but how do you know which two joist to use as a reference?

@@neild7971 makes sense. Thanks
Let me guess your moving it back ? Oh that is why I am a finish carpenter/ cabinet maker! Yes licensed & bonded! Poor bugs Jess !
3:37 with all the metal work finished I am surprised you did not have to get it signed off again by an inspector
Plenty more inspections to come. Pre-lining next when everything to that point will be checked again. Usually about 10 or 12 with a new-build in total.

Guessing you're going to use Booker rod and chemset the rod through timber packing into the foundation. I'm not carpenter but I'm pretty sure they don't make 400mm dynabolts
Something like that yes, seems like the best option however it will be difficult to glue it properly
Hey Scott. Just thinking that you might want to fill that void you showed at the end with concrete. Cheers
These situations is where it would be nice for limitless money. Pull it all out inc the old patio and start again
