MODERN BUILDS
Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.
I’m doing the same thing man, just recently lost my mom about a year ago, and now I’m back in the house my brothers and I grew up in. After my moms passing my grandpa was helping me with the renovation and sadly we lost him also about 8 days ago on my moms heavenly birthday on September 22. And it’s been tough going through grief and depression, but my grandpa always told me to just keep my mind and body busy with some old school hard work and elbow grease. And I just want to say thank you for showing us DIYers and helping me continue this journey for not only me and my brothers but for my angels watching over us! 🙏🏽
Keep pushing forward my brother. Don't forget to take time to reflect.
My condolences homie
Dang brother! I’m really sorry to hear all that happening! Losing a sibling is hard, remember when I lost mine and all I did was build stuff to stay distracted as much as I could. My prayers are up and seriously, good luck with the house. Make it awesome in honor of your mom!! Send me a photo or two sometime on Instagram!
Sorry for your losses
I'm not religious or anything, but when I saw this post it hit home ............a lot! In January I lost my grandfather. He was 94, a WWII vet, a father of four, and one of the funniest people I've ever known. I worked for his electric company for 4 years and he taught me just about everything I know about industrial control systems. His death was expected but still hard. 2 months later, my mother died of Parkinson's disease. We were not very close because of who I remind her of but it still hurts.
So now, here I am, doing word work and running our micro farm. I can just hear ET, thats what everyone in the family called him, telling me that it doesn't matter what you do as long as you stay busy and do things that are visibly productive. That way you will never think that the things you do are a waste of valuable time. He was a wise dude.
I will miss them a lot.
Hi Mike. Wow you have done a ton of work on this house. Cheers for taking this project on and for finding a way to keeping it affordable.
😳😳😳 What are YOU doing here! 😳😳😳
This video has been a long time coming!! BY FAR this was the biggest individual project on the Joshua Tree Renovation and I'm now VERY close to having this cabin remodel complete!! I've got a couple furniture projects coming soon then a big house tour!! Thanks of the support :)
Your cosmetic choices are going pretty well but you REALLY need to consult a pro concerning some of your structural decisions.those straps will not sufficiently hold where a bearing wall should be
Great job!!
Especially with the drywall!
Drywall can be a real pain in the A**
Nice work!
Looks absolutely amazing 😻
@@dougbrown7150 are you a pro??
This turned out fantastic! I am almost finished with my kitchen remodel. It’s been a journey and I have done all the work myself except the counter and sink install. We did quartz counters so I was definitely not installing that! So many mistakes were made too. The project was the biggest DIY project Id ever taken on. I opted for an induction range for my stuff as well. I had pans that were rated for induction and its much fast to heat up stuff. I love that thing and it was a little bit of a spluge. 😊
You may want to readdress that header. It looks like you just tacked it in above the joists, which is odd, without connecting it to any load bearing member. Otherwise, loved the renovation. A lot of good inspiration and tips.
Did you watch the video where he actually puts that header in? While he was doing it i was thinking how does this help anything? Comments confirm it's improperly done and dangerous.
@@JamMastaJew I did not. Will have to go back and watch it. His response to one comment pointing it out was that it "sets on load bearing walls on either side of the wall’s new opening".
Awesome transformation! I love that you love mostly white appliances.
I have been following this channel since the days u were making concrete pots and all. And to see this series now, all i can say is amazing how u able to capture your journey and sharing them with us
This whole renovation is fire!! Loved keeping up with it through Instagram. I have to say my favorite part was at 7:56 - "this is sub-optimal" man that got me and I will strictly be referring to things as optimal and sub-optimal from here on out.
😂😂😂 gotta keep things positive out here!!
Also gonna be using those phrases more regularly!! 😜
Looks great Mike! I'd be very interested in a 1 and 2 year check in on how the concrete skim coat on the countertops hold up because I am very skeptical of it's long term durability, so it would be cool to see a follow up.
Most importantly though, removing the load bearing wall was done incorrectly and is possibly unsafe. Please hire a structural engineer to evaluate the conditions, and detail proper connections when removing structural elements in a house/building. I am a structural engineer so this doesn't sit right with me. I don't want to be a downer though, I am a huge fan and love your channel. I just don't want other people to do this themselves.
He's been told multiple times and doesn't seem to care. If people want to be stupid enough to pull a load bearing wall down without first making sure it's safe to do so that's on them. Using the "Well he did it" isn't an excuse.
I was eating rice while I was watching this, I almost choked when I saw this part with the load bearing wall LOL. Its all about the Views is not about learning. Everything he does is like putting lipstick on a pig. They should be called "Gen Z Builds" LOL
‘Oddly satisfying. Bwiiing’ - that was fun.
Great job. Enjoy your new kitchen.
Man I get so excited every time I see one of your vids. Great job!
Thanks a lot!! I appreciate you watching!! 🎉
you better know what an induction cook top is because you need induction pots and pans for it to work brother haha
basicly it doesn't get hot, it transfers the heat directly to the special pans
I kinda want to add white handles to those cabinets hehe
A good portion of modern cookware is induction compatible. But still a valid point.
I got some induction capable white ceramic cookware... super nice! Now that I’ve used it it is cool, the cooktop cools down way faster than traditional
@@JoshuaRes yes just want to make sure he knows
@@ModernBuilds yes! it's way better for sure if you have compatible pots :D
I absolutely love this transformation!!!! My kitchen countertop’s are definitely getting this concrete updated!!!! Huge money saver!!!
WOOO! Thanks a ton! For a grand total of like $50, it’s a huge upgrade!
That whole garbage can spigot concrete spreader thingy is pretty dang cool! Nice job. When I had a white sink, I would occasionally pour boiling water from the tea kettle on it to keep stains away. Worked pretty well.
Induction Stoves use magnets to excite the metal in the cookware thereby heating it, which has to have some kind of magnetic metal in them. This tech allows changing the heat to be more like cooking with gas. The "burner" area doesn't even get hot other than from the radiant heat from the cookware, and they usually have sensors that will turn off the stove after it stops detecting the cookware for a while as a safety feature.
This turned out amazing!!! I like how you have a DO attitude with no way of knowing how it will turn out, nut not afraid to give it a try.
FOR SURE!! Gotta make mistakes to learn, thanks for the support my dude!
Wow.. look fresh 😍
Good job Mike keep up the good work. Love it all
Love the progress you have made. Kitchen looks amazing. And that fridge is awesome!
simple, clean and practice kitchen 👍👍👍
Great renovation . Great boots👌
Looks so good!
This is Spectacular Sir ! All of it just spectacular 💙
Thank you Annette!!
At first when I saw the picture I was like “huh? All white” the when I watched the video wi was like “OMG this is Amazing “❤❤❤❤. I want to do some Reno but I still a little scared but this Chanel is giving me tons of inspiration.
Heck yes!! Thanks a ton for that compliment 😁 you should totally go for it!
Looks great. I know you say your not an electrician but you should definitely get an L16 connector for that armoured cable for the oven. Also don’t leave extra copper wire exposed past the terminal screws. I am not saying this to put down the work you did just the opposite you did a fantastic job. Just want to make sure you are safe.
I wish project like this would take 16 min. Awesome job
Tip from a contractor: cut the hole on your caulk tube smaller and at a 45 degree angle. No need for windex or for getting it all over your hands.
Cutting steps out to get the same result. Imagine having to caulk a whole house. It’ll make you want to NOT use windex and getting it all over hands and cloths.
Good my friend I'm happy to watching your videos thank you
Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the kitchen and color!!!
Very nice job Mike. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Keep making. God bless.
Thanks for the caulking tip!
Also, in regards to protecting against stains on the white, check DIY's for "prepping" or "protecting" the sink with an oil.
like once a month after you wash and dry the sink, you can use an oil, to help protect the finish.
I just found out about this a little while ago because my Mom's new sink is white and gets nicks really easily.
Take Care!
I HOPE THAT THIS UA-camR SEES YOUR FAKE ACCOUNT AND GETS IT TAKEN DOWN...
Love the way the floor came out
Ok. Great video. But i have an updated idea for your pan cubny and your cutting board. Pan cubby, you should think about switching the door from opening down to up. Easier to slid pans in and out without damaging the door itself. Cutting board, should install your trash can pull out under the cutting board for easy disposal and be able to hid your garbage at the same time. Good luck!
You do great work man! The floors were awesome. The only issue I see with all these modern diy people is they alway paint the wood! Why would anyone paint wood?
Good work my guy remember what the place looked like when you got it already made the value of it doubled 👏
Induction cooking uses electric currents to directly heat pots and pans through magnetic induction. Instead of using thermal conduction (a gas or electric element transferring heat from a burner to a pot or pan), induction heats the cooking vessel itself almost instantly.
BEAUTIFULLLLLLL 😃 WELL DONE🤩
wow .. very inspiring that can make a kitchen as good as that. i tried to make the same thing.
cant wait to see the other furniture you build
Coming soon!
Induction is safer and more efficient than a normal electric top, but it only works with stainless steel and stuff similar to it. It works using magnets so the surface doesn't actually warm up, only the pan does.
Tile or put some glass on the backsplash for the stove... will make cleaning up a breeze down the line :) oh and use a Fondant pen for your caulking (ie modustrial maker styles)... makes it look a lot neater!
The kitchen makeover is a vast improvement, particularly the handleless doors and drawers. I have used that colour as an accent to my kitchen cupboards - completely replaced the door and drawer fronts with white high gloss. Not a big fan of concrete counters and maybe you should have found a white induction hob.
Is nobody going to talk about the sick record collection at 9:39? I spy: Sorority Noise - You're Not as ___ as You Think (full cover displayed), La Dispute - Wildlife, Pity Sex - Feast of Love, Brand New - TDAGARIM, Tigers Jaw - Charmer (and another I can't make out), and Tilian - The Skeptic.
Great taste in tunes my guy.
Looks great! Would look super finished with unique cabinet knobs and backlash
That support beam installation seems a bit sketchy and doesn't seems like it's up to code
You would be right
You're so good.... Thank you for all the extra tips♥️♥️♥️
dude i'm loving these renovation videos! get's me stoked to do it myself in the future!
I always appreciate it brother!! Exited for you too
Looks great! Thank you!!
Are hurricane ties okay for holding those ceiling joists up? Whenever I've seen load bearing wall demos, I've seen them cut away the joists to put the header between them where they meet, and then use joist hangars to connect them to the header
No, he has no idea what he’s doing
Everyone pointed this out on the last video where he showed this. Really disappointed he doesn't seem interested in doing the header correctly. Laura Kampf could admit when she did it wrong I don't see why it would be of any detriment for him to do it?
@@metalmonster1 Laura Kampf has skill and is humble. Mike is clickbait, Oop.. I mean ‘1-800-super pro’
SUPER PRO! Great videos man.
what a great job, i think read about the induction cooktop it is a lot better than electric or gas especially good energy consumption
So far it’s worked great and it was a STEAL for that size
Nicely done! Once you do a kitchen, the rest seems easy by comparison!!
With the iduction cookingboard you don`t need a watercooker.
You should apply some transperent paint, which you can easy clean, behind the cooking area and under and the innersides from the cabinets.
thanks, for the video and the list for everything.
This beautiful
You've nailed it!
Good job buddy!
i love it!
Beautiful! Great work!
Wall ovens are great as you don't need to bend over to use them. I don't know why every place doesn't have two. Also I would have a traditional range oven because during family events like Thanksgiving and Christmas you can never have enough ovens.
Amazing!!!
As always, awesome video! Looking forward to the house tour!!
Thanks a ton!!
I love the Bob Barker Price is Right microphone 🎤
Totally!! 😂
I really enjoyed this video keep it coming
That looks incredible! Well done son!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
BOOYA!
An induction cooktop works by transferring heat into a coil or iron pot sitting on top of it. You will have to cook with mostly induction made cookware from now on, or cast iron. Bonus is, it doesn't work with anything that isn't made for it, so it's harder to accidentally catch the house on fire.
Love it.❤️😍
Super renovation! Very inspiring as always, Mike. 🔥🛠
Looks great.
For me, I would have gotten rid of the door and put that big item frig there, that would have give more walk way.
Amazing result! Love the fridge!
Same thaaanks!
🎉 Congrats, looks great
I think the cabinet doors need handles or knobs to contrast with the light color paint. but other than that, it looks great!
I agree. They look like theyre missing something.
I personally like the minimalist look, but some matte brass hardware could look really cool!
That range hood replacement looks great. Is the brand listed and I'm missing it?
Either way, do you know the sone and CFM ratings? I'd like to change mine too.
Super pro!!!
Really clever upgrades to transform your kitchen on a budget. Love the end result! One suggestion is I noticed you used a standard sized roller without an extension. You always want to use an extension for the leverage. It makes painting exponentially easier, faster and better. I recommend the Wooster brush Sherlock GT SR090 💪🏼
Nice advice, thanks!!
It's amazing 😍
Love this build and channel!! Could you do a price breakdown for the full kitchen renovation? That would be super dope(and super pro)!!
is this repeated ?? I thought the fire place is live on FB its much updated.
Enjoyed the video. Your exciting to listen to.
We used the same Behr paint to redo our old kitchen cabinets. We primed well and sanded well. But the paint didn't hold up. It also stains and rubs off, especially where doors rub or you touch it a lot. I hated it so much. We just did a totally new Ikea kitchen and it's 10000% better. Use a sealer or just get a better paint
Bummer! I’m curious to see how these hold up then! Hopefully I don’t need to replace things that soon!
Thanks--good to know!👍
love the video as always!! your videos have definitely inspired some of my own projects, keep it up 🫡
installing a backsplash on the wall next to your cooktop will save your sainty. Used to live in a house similar to yours where the landlord painted everything white (concrete floors and all) and I was stressed every time I cooked!
I’ve been wondering what would look good!?! Thinking spaghetti sauce is gonna be a nightmare to cleanup 😂
@@ModernBuilds hahaah yes, it is. I now have a stainless steel sheet installed and it fits quite well.
Love it!!! Well done 👍
Thanks!!
You are very good man
"This kitchen was stuck in the 70s" "its so outdated"
Lets take it back further to the 50s
😂😂😂😂😂
Mike, the kitchen looks great. You've done a great job refurbishing this cute house. Thanks for sharing these house make over videos with us. You are absolutely my favorite Okie on UA-cam.
I’m proud!! You’re gonna be excited about the next big project if you’re from OK!!
@@ModernBuilds Can't wait. Yeah, I'm an OKC man. I attended Central State and came out to CA to teach. I really miss the South Side of OKC.
I am having a serious deja vu moment. Is this a reupload?! I swear I’ve seen this already!
looks really good 👍
Fantastic job, Mike!! Kitchen looks light and airy now instead of dark and claustrophobic
You should get a heat gun to help get those old floors and glue up faster.
I think you should sand the floors or make them less slippery.
Very good
Can you post link for what products you used regarding the countertop?
Did you store your heatsensitive LPs ontop of your oven? I'd recommend putting them somewhere else, they might bend / warp.
Great video & transformation, especially on a budget! Though I don’t necessarily agree with the order you completed the projects. I feel like there would have been a much better and easier way to phase the reno.
I agree.. live and learn when it comes to order of operations... last time I'll be living inside of the house I'm renovating, that's for sure!!
nice! can you use the concrete over tile counter?
Waouu, good job
Can't wait to see what backsplash you use for your kitchen!
I can’t believe he wasn’t embarrassed to show the shoddy load bearing work! Please don’t do what he just did.
Wow! Awesome renovation project!! Love your videos and smile as always! Mike, why did you renovate the floors after painting cabinets, and not first? I’m worried about joints))) simple and genius cutting board!! 🥰😍
Hey, give us a countertop update in a year or so, I want to know how the skim coat holds up
Yes I will!! I did this method outdoors and they eventually failed due to the weather... so I’m excited for these and hope they hold up great!
