  • In Part 3 of this Coffered Ceiling Series, we go over the process of installing our vertical beam pieces. I show you how I preassemble these boxes and cut everything 1/2 out of plumb for an easy install. Then we look at how to measure, cut, and preassemble crown moulding boxes for these coffered ceilings.

    Amazing work. It blows my mind that you are always working alone, yet you never struggle with anything. Everything, in every video, just falls in to place. This is the definition of “trust the process”.

      Always better to work alone. Yet lots of people like to work with one or two other guys. You have to pay those one or two other guys. And it takes some time and mental energy to manage those guys. Stay small, keep it all.
      There are a handfull guys I can work with where 1+1=3. Most of the time 1+1=0.5.

    I overcome the measuring problem you talk about by cutting a 10 inch block in order to mark 10 inches from one end. Then I measure to that mark from the other end to get a very accurate reading ( adding back my 10 inches to my measurement). This helps avoid the problems with trying to read a tape on an inside corner....

    When you were measuring the crown and tilting the tape....what I usually do is measure out 100mm / 4inches. Mark that spot. Then measure back to that point and add the 100mm. Give you a very accurate measurement.

  • @mikeinmaryland
    @mikeinmaryland Рік тому +9

    I haven’t read all the comments so I might be repeating someone else. When I do an inside measure, I measure to a ten. Meaning 10”, 20” 30”. Then I measure from the other side and add 10, 20 or 30…
    This 3 part series is pure genius!

    • @112wade

    Putting in a large one soon.Your method is the trick. This job is going to have a solid beam around the perimeter. Like the style of yours better. I’m going to rip 3/8 0ff a 1x8 use it as a scribe around perimeter. I will use the 1x8 rip it for soffit. Hopefully I wont have to bring soffit to far away from wall to try and square up the room. I will use your beam method for the perimeter beams. Hoping for the best. Thanks for your insight !!!
