    I just love the fact that you aren't cutting anything.

    Think I've just unlearned finish carpentry.

    Rather than friction fitting the cabinet door over your water shutoff, I'd recommend a couple roller catches and install a handle in the middle. All houses move and shift between summer and winter, and you don't want to be stuck with a door that just falls out.

    looks like you had some pretty good framers before you to avoid issues. when i did my window trim, the 2x4 studs had some twist and were far from square and symmetric. So, I took a bunch of measurements and pre-built the entire window frame with glue and nails, fitting it in place with shims (and gap filling foam). this made the job straight forward, where I only had to "fiddle" once, adjusting shims. this takes longer, so I wouldn't recommend it if you have a smooth sailing canvas like this guy did.

    What kind of wood did you use for the window trim? Since it's against the concrete, was it pressure treated plywood?

    Do you have to put trim inside, if it's already finished and painted? i was just thinking a stool and trim on the sides.

    Omg what smart idea to use the paper thanks!

  • @jonathanbrown2692
    @jonathanbrown2692 7 років тому +3

    You used waaaaaaaaaaay to much spackle to fill in the nail holes. Apply with fingers and jam it in the hole and Always wipe off the excess immediately with a damp rag or damp sponge. Then you dont have to sand it later, which is a total waste of time. Yeah it will shrink a little but when you touch up with paint the paint will compensate for the shrinkage.

    What's the deal with all the paper? Seems like a waste of time, if you know how to measure and layout .

      hahah I was thinking the same thing. A couple simple measurements and you'd be golden. I guess if you don't have a measuring tape the paper would work in a pinch? lol

    • @poetnk
      @poetnk 5 років тому +1

      A lot of people swear by scribing through templates like that, and it actually makes a lot of sense if you're not dealing with straight lines... but in a case like this, it's just bizarre.

    That big ugly cabinet door in the middle of the wall is an eyesore. How about a long, narrow 12" cabinet door or an actual door? Anything that would have matched the walls could have worked too.

    why nail when can glue for same effect. Just making more work for yourself filling all the nail holes?

    • @scarboroughrider

      LightGesture that doesn't affect contraction and expansion . Glued for years with no problems.

    • @LightGesture
      @LightGesture 7 років тому +3

      I would imagine it would still affect it, being a window sill and who knows the climate. humidity and temperatures can easily make wood break a glued surface.
      I'm just throwing an idea out there. I've always done nails or both.

    At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

    Virtually no dimensions offered. Sloppy fitting. Too many details skipped. Fairly useless.
