If you set your saw blade at a 45 degree angle and just barely raise it above the table height, (A dado blade helps) you can rip your V grooves in the ply without making the planks. Since you made the seams in straight lines instead of staggering, you would simply hang the full sheets of ply instead of the planks. No caulking except at the sheet seams and half the time as long as you have the extra hands.
Oh I missed the part in the video where they asked for your advice
That would totally work to finish a basement as well. You just saved me a ton of $$$$! Thanks!
5:02 You crushed me. That wood looked amazing
WOW!! I am glad I found you online. You are doing a lot of stuff I want to do to my home.You explain everything and great detail. Thank you.
Thank YOU. It's great to know that my videos help even a little bit. :) Thanks for the nice comment.
Smart idea cutting the V groove. Looks really nice. I was wondering what type of quarter inch plywood was it. Was it lauan plywood?
thanks Greg.
She said it was 1/4" "pine underlayment". I went to home depot, they had 1/8"..
Nice job... Think of all the tools you can get with the $2600 you saved!
exactly
My experience with buying a tool for a diy job is that usually the saving of the diy pays for the tool with a solid surplus, compared to have it done by a contractor.
And you'll end up using it over the years on other projects so it's always good to invest in good tools with every project. :-D
Festools are sweet. Pricey but great quality. Looks good
bad experiences by flyby wire or throttle body, or whatever his name is...
Striker Thunderlick ,
Most contractors won’t do such a fine job as she did for $6,000.
Yes, you kind of , correction, you most definitely have to know how to use a tape measure and basic hand tools to get the results she has. My sister had the ideas, l had all the tools and OCD skills for perfection. That part of me drove her crazy, she just wanted it done.
We haven’t grown so close in 50 years, as we did, pimping out her she-shed 👩❤️💋👨 I wish l could post before and after photos here.
I knew this video was old when she said the underlayment was $11 a sheet. Here in 2022, it's about $32 a sheet at Lowe's.
Love it!!!!. Just finished my kitchen amd will be doing the 1/2 bath next. This is a must for the ceiling.....
What is "Call-Kah?" LMAO! 🤣😂
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!! and I’m usually the guy bitching. Love love love this look and how you achieved every step.
wow!! the $2600 that you saved should be your tip for sheer ingenuity!!
Loved your intro and personality! I've got a large attic room needing a redo and I think I'm going to use your process. Great tips and info!!
I did something similar but used 1x6s and beveled the edges. I still saved a ton of money over T&G planks. I stained it at the time but now I am in the process of painting it white. I m into a white groove nowadays. Everything else seems too dark.
Great job
what size nail did you use? What type of paint did you use? :) thanks in advance
Next time consider 7/16 plywood and use a straightedge and a v bit on a router to cut the grooves.
Oh Yeah smart thinking. am going to take your idea. router ought to leave edges smooth enough to skip sanding. if not I'll just call it rustic I don't want to sand lol
If I understand you.... leave /cut one edge straight and use "V" router blade on the other edge so when abutting adjacent boards gives that T&G look?
that sounds like a clever idea. Do you have a video for this? if not you should show us how. That would be a good video.
Very nice. I love how, when I've done a remodel myself, as time passes I eye the work approvingly and remember little details from the construction. It embeds a bit of me in the house.
+Wood Tools Workshop :-D Cool!
I actually love the look of the sanded part at the 5:29 minute mark! That would look great with the whole ceiling completed in that look and then covered with clear coat polyurethane. Lots of work but looks great! :-)
My hat is off to you !! You go Girl!!
You are cool. I like the stubborn part.
If you have unfinished walls T 111 will give the same effect kill 2 birds with one stone
Dumb questions....What is T111 ?

Thank you so much for this idea! I cant find the tongue and groove that matches what was already there in an adjacent room. So make it? Great idea? Can you share a link to what this wood plywood under lament is? Is it birch? I cant find it in Canada. Thank you?
Just use the lease expensive material you can find that will look good. Lumber availability and pricing is ever changing.
Looks good just next time try staggering your joints for a good finish so you dont have straight lines at the butt ends :):) You did Good !~~!~
Not the look she wanted and she stated that in the video.
keep it up..as a man i love getting insight from a woman on a heavily male dominated industry
GIRL POWER!! I LOVE IT!!! You gave me so many tips on DIY ceiling planks. Excellent job!!!
Very well done. I bet you were tired when you got done working over your head like that. 👍😁
Thanks for showing this. I wanted to put up planking on the ceiling and put it off because of the cost. This idea brings the project down to my cost range.
Looks awesome! I love any ideas that save tons of money!
Ceiling looks fantastic! You go Sandra.
Great job! That looks amazing and saving that much money on something that doesn't effect the end result is huge. Keep up the good work!
Saving money? Bought a new festool ($450) and line laser, depending on what kind $90-$200. That ceiling cost more than $400 and it sure as hell wouldn't cost $3000 to do a ceiling
i used my stud finder to find my husband and show him your video and say see, so easy a girl can do it 😂😂😂
thanks girl 💞
Nice nice..so nice...I wish I find a girl like U......I always like projects in my house......my luck is.....that none of my girlfriends or my ex...liked doing work like U do.
1 mo' time....Muchas Gracias...!!
And keep it up
Menards sells 3/16" T&G planks in cedar and pine that are pretty cheap. Same look that you have but would save a few steps.
Appreciate that tip!! Will check into it, Thank you!
Looks great! I did a faux ship lap. With 1/4 " underlayment.. Ripped 8 " strips square cuts and used pop cycle sticks for spacers.. Nailed on with brad nailer, then rolled on the paint.....
what paint did you use?
No Fricken Way would I be sanding all those edges...with or without the help of a power sander Good on you for doing that one,
I would have conditioned the plywood before priming, but that's me. Great idea, and a lot of savings. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for your tutorial. I would stagger the size of the boards myself so I would not have a line down the center. After watching this, I would just cut the boards and throw them up and use the caulking to make the V shape between the boards.
Lots of ways to do anything. Do what works for you.
I LOVE YOUR PLASTIC APRON IDEA! I’m going to try it.
I actually love the look of imperfections when cutting yourself as apposed to buying panel. Great job!! That sander you bought isn't so cheap. Did you ever use it again?
Nice! I may have been inclined to prep the edges and prime the boards before installing. Turned out great 👍
...and stagger the joints
Excelente trabajo, no encuentro tutoriales en español para hacer algo similar en mi casa. Congratulations
Was really thankful for your video. Thanks so much! I was looking for a cheaper alternative to tongue n groove due to cost currently. Used this method for our screened porch ceiling, and it came out great!! Ty!!
Excellent work there, Sandra. Love the look.

Use 3/8" ship lap with table saw you'll have less nails. Prime ply with roller before cutting.
Retired Custom Home Builder from Boston Area, NEW SUBSCRIBER, NICE JOB‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
I've seen another video where they used nickles to space the planks, the bevel is WAY better and gives a much more authentic look. Great video!
Nice, I like the 45 degree cuts.....I'm going to copy that idea on an upcoming project. thanks
why didn't you paint your boards before hanging them? it would have been much easier..
Because I had no where to lay out 500 planks and paint them.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! I’m not sure my shoulders are up to the task but I’m willing to try!
Stunning!! YOU GO GIRL!
Cleaning caulking with a sponge: excellent idea actually, never thought about it! And rinse it off in a bucket of water.
Nicely done. I suppose some would say that buying the Festool sander wiped out a portion of the savings you got by doing it yourself, but I like to say doing the job yourself allowed you to get an awesome tool that you can use over and over again.
+Howard Springsteen Absolutely. I say that because I saved so much on materials that gave me a chance to buy a new tool or two! :-D
I think with the caulking just pre-sanding the edges would have been much easier, a conventional sanding block or R.O sander should do it. Regardless of steps taken it looks great, and job well done.
Beautiful job. Well done.
That’s beautiful! Nice job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
* can't tell the difference*..sorry.
Great video and idea. Can I use this to cover my dreaded popcorn ceiling without scraping all the popucorn off first?
Girl... you are I credible. The ceiling looks awesome!!!
Only thing I would've done differently is to stagger the end joints. I realize the boards cover that but you could have used the bevel on ends as well and it would've looked like flooring on the ceiling. Still looks great the way you did it.
+Mike Kapotsy You could definitely use this concept and produce many different looks. I specifically did not want staggered joints because I don't want my ceiling to look like a floor. Also, there is no bevel on the ends. You could certainly create a bevel on the ends of each plank like I did on the sides but that would be difficult with such long boards...and just so much more work. :-)
Sandra Powell aka {Sawdust Girl} oh yeah I caught that you did it that way on purpose, I was just saying that is how I would have done it myself. You did an outstanding job on it thought, it looks fantastic!
Mike Kapotsy Thanks. I always say, "You can do the same thing a dozen different ways and they'd all look good." It's just a matter of which way you want it to look. I think you should bevel the sides and ends and stagger a ceiling AND leave the bare wood showing. That would be really cool!
+Sandra Powell aka {Sawdust Girl} yep, and I actually like the look of the wood showing through when you sanded it a bit. I think with the plaster on the brick wall board the way you have it, having the woodgrain show through would've looked cool too. watching your videos always gives me lots of good ideas!
Jerk Of All Trades You are silly!
so stalking your videos .i want a nailer too. but the money worries me. going to have to make it without it
Great video and the result looks tremendous. I have to ask though, why cut a large sheet into strips? why not route grooves of the same shape into the sheet and just put the whole sheet up in one go?
That's a great idea.
Plywood isn't great for routing, and then when lifting it up to install it would snap in more than one place.
looks almost like you put up old paneling from the seventies then painted it.
I like the way you trimmed it off with the one by five. Great job I love it when the women pick up the tools. My daughter for the past 30 years has owned her own cabinet shop.
300 hrs times $10/hr=$3000
nice job! clean work.
Awesome! But hopefully you do more to pay for those tools you bought!
Of course.
Your awesome! Wish I could have done this when I was your age. Great inspiration
Awesome
Why my wife can’t dare to hold a hammer and you can operate the table saw. The world isn’t fair is it !!!!!
Everyone has their own strengths, talents and skills. Celebrate and appreciate hers. :-)
Amazing job.
Great job! The result is very impressive!
Waoooo amazing.. What kind of plywood is that? Any plywood would do?
fantastic work! I did an entire house back in the Philippines long time ago, all stained solid 3/4 mahogany ceiling planks except they're all in a diagonal pattern, made the entire interior of the house looks so much larger. I also noticed you have quite an expensive taste when it comes to tools.
congratulations on your project!
I love your Build Like A Girl shirts!! Where'd you get them? I definitely need at least one.
Thanks for sharing all your efforts and experience. Much appreciated.
That tagline is my trademark - so thanks! I sell those shirts on my website - sawdustgirl.com.
Great project, and definite money savings. Even without counting the new tools you bought.
Great job and awesome saving the money's....saving money = more tools......yea
+Robert Evans Absolutely! I buy a couple nice tools with ever big remodel project I do because I save so much by doing all the work myself.
Glad you have no problem with being just a girl.Maybe some girl will be encouraged.Way to go.
.
About 42.00 now for the piece of plywood you bought back then for 11.00. 😩
Man .That looks nice! You would think somebody would have mass produced faux tongue and groove .Maybe even in 4x8 sheets
They have had it for years. Look in the paneling section. Packages cover almost as much as a sheet of paneling, and the cost is around ten bucks a package. knotty pine, tongue and groove. Some come with or without beads in the middle. Have put up thousands of feet of it.
Only a few hundred dollars but most of us don't have that expensive table saw. It does look pretty good though.
Very nice job! Looks wonderful:)
amazing job
Love the Video. I'm new here too. Thanks a lot for the details of your problem solving. You're a "Jazzy-Lady." Thanks again!
a new project is always a great excuse to buy new tools. Nice to see you're using your third arm. They do have their uses *Grin*. I wear a baseball cap to help protect mine. It lessens the random bumps it manages to find.
+Kiwi Dashcam LOL Yes, saving money on materials means I have more to spend on tools! Woohoo
Yea but if one has a career that pays 4000 a week actually makes it a huge loss and time (which can never be gotten back is wasted) I just pay the contractor and guarantee pro work. But if one is a stay at home type then yes go for it!
400$ of material , 10000 dollars of labor . Great hobby for retirees who don't wanna go anywhere and are bored at home
Why are you watching a DIY video if you didn't expect to see someone um... do it themselves.. ???
Staggered joints would have looked way better .
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing. Very good video to help those of us who want to DIY.
Thanks for the inspiration. Great discounted solution.
you are amazingly ( not sure that's a word) talented. like my Dad says.." work smart not hard ". and save money along the way. that's looks beautiful Sandra. you can tell the difference. In fact it looks better than the tongue and groove. great educational video.
+patrick mcglone Thanks Patrick! (and I knew you meant "can't tell..."). I appreciate it very much!
Not trying to hate but I don't know if its just the camera. But it looks like you just put up cheap wall paneling and painted it.
OF COURSE BETTER 1.-SANDING FIRST (BEFORE INSTALLING)
AFTER SANDING. . DO 2.-PRIMER.. THE AGAIN. . 3.-SANDING "AGAIN" (BECAUSE YOU ARE SO PERFECT AND WHAT SO PERFECTION. (NOT BIG DEAL TO SAND AT THE JOINTS BECAUSE YOU JUST CAULKING)
4.- MORE PRIMER AGAIN.
AFTER INSTALLED. . JUST " USE YOUR PLASTIC COVER AND YOUR MACHINE SPRAYER AND PAINT THE WHOLE CEILINGS.
Fake?
$200 ???
probably only sanding thats what you spend. .
how much cost the wood??
$3 long feet?
plus sander $$ plus your machine sprayer..
PLUS YOUR COVER PLASTIC..
$200??
I always work alone so weight matters. That is the perfect material for a good surface. I stagger the joints like a floor , hides even more sins.
I am not nice enough to have a channel where people post stupid ass comments. Congratulations. I'm working on letting it go. Lol.
Great job!! REAL WOMAN...
May I ask where you got your board. I went to Lowes but they want 18.00. Would Love to know where you got it for your price. Thanks
Home depot has an 1/8 in thick hardwood plywood available for 9.97 a sheet. Only larger stores seem to have it in stock.
Can I do this over popcorn ceiling using the 1/4 inch underlayment?
Would this of worked if you staggered the joints?
1st Corinthians 15:1-4 it would have looked better
1st Corinthians 15:1-4 staggered the joints would of got rid of the cover boards.why did she paint it.looked better plain
She didn't want the ceiling to look like a floor.With those boards at the end,actually looks pretty nice.
Yep, that is what she said. But, joints are almost always staggered because the boards are more aesthetically pleasing that way. Although I found this a terrific idea that I plan to use myself, I think I won't over-work it. I'll build a jig to sand the edges and finish the wood before installing, and avoid the caulking to preserve the natural look.
Toxic stuff
Make sure room is well ventilated.
This was a joy to watch. Thumbs up and subscribed. Cheers!
You could have just bought beaded plywood panels and saved a ton of work and gotten better results.
