You want comments? Ok….. I’m 80 and retired, live in 55+ community in Philly burbs. I do DIY stuff around the house. A little electrical(permit & inspected), plumbing(permit and inspected) and some furniture. I love the channel and have been watching since your early days. Wish I could fly out, watch and go get coffee/pizza. Thanks Tim.
Stud, cripple here outside Chicago. Great to see a guy from my era, started in 92, still going strong. Love your show Tim, way to bring the young guys along.
Love the zip panel system. Australia doesn’t have it yet but will come a day. We need it. ATM our building is rubbish now as the school system has cut corners with beginner apprenticeship. Just crap here. I was spec building for 65 years. It’s been fantastic life for me. Love watching
I don't think we'll see all those plastics and adhesives in Australian building any time soon. It has to be bushfire safe, and half the chemicals the US manufacturers use are banned here because they're carcinogenic anyway.
@@tealkerberus748 interesting it is actually Australia is American dumping ground of chemicals manufacturing made & only sold in Australia. Our Australian government do as we are told by USA & moreover USA federal Reserve Bank that have controlled the Biden White House!!
old builder who enjoys your videos so much, , too! those little "tips" you slip in are MUCH-appreciated, and well-considered!! If I had kids who needed to learn the craft, this channel's videos are "must-see"! thanks for the hard-work makin' them for us. Easier to watch, than to do the work! :-) Nice wood.
I still have flat pencils from when the lumber yards gave them out, going to try the Pica when I build my own house this fall. No seismic stuff around here, that looks like a whole different animal. I started really watching with interest in the small details you do. Sealant under the green plate, Titan screws instead of j-bolts, taping the sheathing to the concrete. I really like to see the details that matter, and don't (maybe) cost a lot to implement. I'm definitely going to miss having the forklift on my job. We always had a Pettibone on the job when I last did residential back in the 2000's. I just found my stash of JLC and Fine Homebuilding that you wrote for back then. Keep it up.
Love your videos! Working as a remodeler for the past 7 years starting out green as a sheet of zip. I use the regular pica pencil, and i love that thing. As far as layout, I just use my tape and step back depending on what thickness is needed. Thanks for sharing all your information with the world!
Pica dry large just like you have there. I do the same layout doors first and also do walls then I’ll do studs last. Generally use a tape and I do my best to match lower and upper. You rock boss!!
I'm a software engineer that has no plans to build a home, but I love watching your videos. Interesting content and your videos are always funny and enjoyable. Keep up the great work!
once again greatful for the context and information tim you rule! we use the pica dry out here in the PNW makes a huge difference when doing layout in the rain
Nice. Good to see you not over-nailing. As a remodeler, I shudder at what it will take to take apart the work of yahoos with nail guns. I mark both sides of the stud, but am not framing all the time. Looks like you are using two different speed squares- what's that about?
Hello from Canada, I’ve installed sooo many innotech windows and doors, they are good quality but not perfect. Doors were always a nightmare to get the latching mechanism to working smoothly. Also the metal clips you use to install the windows provide no thermal break as it transfers cold to the inside (minimal I admit, but still…). Anyway thanks for your awesome videos I learn a lot!
Nail top and bottom plates together do layout on saw horses though to avoid being bent over more. Mark centers pulling a tape and hold a sharpie on layout and scribe across both plates. Takes practice to get it accurate but its fast and efficient and saves your back.
I have the Makita 40v 10 1/4 inch beam saw I really like it! It's funny I was ordering the 7 1/4 inch 40v but accidentally ordered the 10 1/4! I decided to not return it because I've seen how much fun you have with yours! I also got the 7 1/4 too😊
Years ago before we had any mechanical pencils locally I imported some Koh-i-noor 5340 5.6mm Lead Holders, excellent art utensil, but rubbish for site work unfortunately, the end cap sharpener would always unscrew and fall off. Awesome video dude, one day I want to grow up to be like you. Already 27 though, so might've missed the boat there. 😁
These guys are on top of the tech the latest technologies !! I thank the person that lead me here !! But fair is fair from what I learned Larry Han, second to nobody yes up to date is important !! Like no plumbers puddy on delta plastic plumbing fixtures old school void the warranty yes
Not a Framer but have a question on exterior wall framing. How do you determine what walls to frame and stand up first and what walls to butt up to the other wall. Do you just go with the longest walls first. Does it really matter. Btw I love watching your videos.
Are your rake walls even with the top of the truss? I usually run the stem wall through and the rake wall buts, then a rafter over the rake wall. This takes care of any warping in the wood, framing error, and uneven concrete. Also I use graphite keel. It works in wet weather/wood. Sharpies don’t. Rock on!
Fraser valley framer, trimmers are referred to as cripples also by engineers. We don’t worry about stacking a joint on a stud it will get lapped with the top plate. We always mark to the sides of our studs always standard 16” o/c. Other than that pretty similar. For order of operations I like to load studs first, than cut cripples, at that point someone can start nailing while the other guy continues cutting headers, windows jacks and plates and than top plates, that’s also the order we build it in. If working solo I cut everything, lay it in place, than bang the whole wall off.
I use the Pica-Dry 3030 pencil, but have yet to find decent refills. The Pica-Dry refills break like grandma hips, as do the Hultafors and the generic offshore Amazon offerings. Colored leads (white, yellow, red) are even worse, but I attribute that to the nature of materials used to make the colors. The ONLY "refills" I've found to be any good are the 2 sticks that come with the Pica-Dry 3030 itself, but I think it's crazy to have to buy a new $15 pencil every time I need new lead. Any suggestions? Pica company was of zero help.
Lay out windows/doors, mark my first 15 1/4", tack a nail (or use my awl at the risk of getting made fun of) and pull my 16"s with X's on the right of the line. We call them jacks in Ontario, Canada and mark them as "O" on the plates. Use blocks from cutoffs to nail partition walls into 16" or 18" on centre depending on ceiling height, pulled from top for drywallers (48" or 54" sheets).
@@AwesomeFramers 80% of the time it's a waste, but the other half of the time it's great 😆 i guess it's all about the structure, but generally if u r using 11-7/8" i-joists @ 16oc with span
I certainly don’t have any tips to give, but I am picking up a ton of knowledge. I laugh now thinking back to the couple of sheds and decks I’ve build over the years, without Timmy’s tricks 😂
Mark both sides of stud with framing square (surplus of info so young guys don’t make mistakes). Solo I might try just centres. Pica Big Dry, but leads and pencil quality leave me wanting. Last one lasted less then 6 months.
I use the pica big dry as well. For 16” layouts I wear custom made size 24 boots, which are exactly 16” long heal to toe. This way I can literally step off the layout perfectly. Just kidding, but it does sound like the perfect layout tool for a company with the name Bigfoot!
Always side marks! I use a plethora of marking tools all depending on required accuracy and durability. I’ve been exterior insulating since 2005. Glad to see the industry catching up. ZipR is not the answer for me, I prefer traditional structure with envelope entirely exterior. Joe Lstiburek’s (Building Science) been preaching perfect wall forever and a day.
@@AwesomeFramers yes Joe is very accommodating and I’ve used ZipR in the past. The fastening is just a bit finicky and I don’t love the polyiso running up the wall like a fire chase inside the wall. Granted XPS on the exterior is only marginal better. When we can we exterior insulate with rock wool on 5/8” ply. The cost benefit for zipR is a wonderful value proposition and I’ve recommended it as an 80% solution to many clients as a consultant. As a builder and developer my results have been far superior with the “traditional” full exterior envelope. When building structure we reduce the amount of wood (24” OC power framing), and build the tightest frame possible. It’s part of my principle of keeping trades in their lane. One of the reason I forward your videos to my guys is your execution of sound tight framing principals. It’s not common to see craftsmen excelling at their craft now a days.

More dimensions is always a good thing. I've been working a plan this week and the architect has the dimensions nowhere near where it makes sense. I have to go to the to the foundation plan to find the dimension that should be on the floor plan. I couldn't find the porch dimension for the piers on the foundation plan. It seems quite obvious to me this architect has never had a conversation with a framer or foundation sub. Additionally when I scroll the pages in PDF, the floor plan is always in a different place on the page, so I have to navigate around. Its a little thing, but makes it hard when nothing I need is on the right page. Its organized very oddly.
@AwesomeFramers thanks for the reply. We usually have foundation /floor framing, main and upper level plans, then roof plan and framing in that order. Followed by elevations and sections. Typically dimension porch piers to centerline in case builder wants to change pier size. We get some who complain that we don't have window rough openings on plan, but more times than not window mfr changes so our windows sizes are nominal.
Right? I forgot I had that clip until I got to that part of the voiceover. Searched my Google Photos for the gym location and found that. Truthfully, my favorite part of the video
@@AwesomeFramers In all seriousness, great video with lots of useful and time saving tips. I'm not a professional framer, but very much enjoy watching Larry Haun's videos for his gentle nature, generosity, wisdom and mentorship. You have those qualities as well, in addition to the cool gear, cinematography, humour, and stunning good looks.
I have had the bigfoot 10 1/4" beam saw, i currently have the skill sawsqwatch 10 1/4" which i like better than the Bigfoot. I deffenitly want the makita cordless 10 1/4"
Hey. Not directly related to the video but I’m guessing I’m not the only one getting private responses to my comments saying to “get rid n touch. I have something for you.” Looks like a scam. Hoping Mr. Awesome Framer will chime in with an official heads up.

Your 16’ material is consistent enough you can cut the side you flush up? Around here the other side could be 1/2” or more out

Why do you make your marks as a 'v' instead of a just a tick mark?
I'm not sure. I think I was taught that so the tip of the "v" is the actual measurement.
Thank you for this
Favourite part of this is the upstairs windows being directly over the downstairs windows. Can't go past good structural design like that.
Why did you change what side of the layout stick stud you marked the line on, very confusing to watch.
