Impresive job over a few days!! I have a little fear of sheet metal. Learned not to play with it as a child. The hard way, of course. So i did cringe some, well a lot.🤣 Have a great holiday weekend. 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙
The things I didn’t know you could DIY…though you have way more professional knowledge, experience and expertise than I’ve ever had in subjects like this. It’s always cool learning things you see but don’t understand the reason, like the purpose for the cross breaks. It’s great to see important features come into this house with cost-cutting efficiency. And I love that sitting room. It’s so warm and cozy and yesteryear-ly.
Back in the early 60s, I helped my father put in ducts for a new furnace he was installing (formerly a pot oil burner). Your work really takes me back to those days, long ago, when my dad was fixing up the old 1917 bungalow he inherited by buying his half-brother out of his share for $1,270!!
What beautiful blooms on your magnolia! It is nice to see your yard filling in so quickly after removing the garden beds. It is so great (and impressive) that you know how to make these ducts! Wishing you both a fantastic Memorial Day weekend!
Ooh, I loved this episode! My husband is a carpenter so I have picked up a bit of knowledge from him, but I've never actually seen anyone do tinners work. I always wondered why there was an "x" mark in duct work. Thank you for showing how to do this. 😊
Great episode, it will be interesting to see how you fit in the ducts as they go to the upper floor. In my own 1913 home we had to duplicate all the system in an upstairs closet and run all the ductwork through the attic to each of the four rooms, I insisted that each room also had both a supply grill as well as return grill all placed in the ceilings, this was so even with the doors closed air will still circulate correctly and warm or cool as needed. This has worked out well but has needed a few tweaks for getting the correct air movement with the decorative grills I had chosen.
Thank you for sharing that. We are also planning the individual supply/return approach. Because of the airflow the system will put out, we'll have to double up on registers in each room, so we don't build static pressure. I'm glad it's working well for you!
It just amazes me the knowledge you have for just about anything. I’m so impressed with you n Jeannie making your own air ducts. God bless my husband he wasn’t much on mechanical. It just never interest him. He did know how to change a tire though LOL. He loved sports especially soccer (he played for 28 yrs.) n he loved his music his oldies but goodies. I had to show him how to hold a hammer properly LoL. I sure miss him a lot. He was a great guy n everyone really loved him. By the way. How did Jeannie’s sauerkraut come out? Did she finally taste it n like it? I bet she’s a good cook n lives to bake. Well, I’ve said enough. Always enjoy n live watching the two of you. God bless you both. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🥰
Being a great guy more than makes up for the lack of skills. :-) The sauerkraut turned out great, but Jeanie doesn't like the taste. We may try again with extra flavorings. She is an excellent baker and cook! 💖💖
I am so-o glad you know what you are doing. I wouldn't know the first thing about installing an air handler let alone what material and tools to use. Is the word you were looking for to decribe " the goo/ sticky stuff" perhaps grease? 🤔
Hello, you two😊❤ Beautiful Magnolias! 💐 Cant wait to see its full glory! Great work, Manly! This was actually very relaxing to watch. Have a great weekend!
My husband was a welder and a metal worker for several years during the first part of our marriage. Yes, he came home with cuts on his hands(not too deep). He did end up changing jobs at one point. Blessings.
Wow….I don’t know where you’ve learned all this but I am so very impressed with what you two accomplish!! Great job! I always learn something from you guys!! Have a fantastic holiday weekend!! ❤
Mike, where did you learn all about how to do this, especially the cross bracing? I love learning new things even though I'll never do a project like the one you're working on.
@@1834RestorationHouse if you bought an icy breeze air conditioner? Jeff Foxworthy likes the icy breeze. Fall and Spring may be bearable!? If you had reflective paint on the attic ceiling, it might help?
Watching these episodes ..but getting into a debate with my wife about their ages. Mike seems 60-70...but Jeanie could be 45-65!.... So hard to tell. Not important, but just curious.
Nothing says Southern like a Magnolia tree! So pretty! I enjoy watching you both lovingly restore this deserving gem of a house.
SO true! We always look forward to the blooms every year. Thanks for stopping by!
Who would have known you could do sheet metal? Always amazing.
Like how you did those creases in the sheet metal. I have that same tool. 😊
Mike, you'd make an excellent shop teacher in a vocational or high school setting. You're calm, easily to understand and vision.
I'd take that class!
I have to agree. You’d be a great teacher n I’d be first in line to sign up ♥️😊👍
Lol! I'd love to have you all in my class.
Thanks guys👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Our pleasure!

I've always enjoyed experimenting with different technologies, new and old. Sometimes it comes in handy. :-)

Thank you Debbie! This project is more enjoyable than I expected it to be. Now going under the house probably won't be as much fun.
It's so nice to see how well you two work together on your projects! A joy to watch😊
Thanks so much! 😊

How To, with Mike and Jeanie. Helping me to understand ductwork construction, and leak protection. 💖💖

Have a great weekend!
There's an idea....ASMR sheet metal! :-)
My husband was a welder and a metal worker for several years during the first part of our marriage. Yes, he came home with cuts on his hands(not too deep). He did end up changing jobs at one point. Blessings.
I've already been poked and sliced a time or two. Not fun! We've switched to a different set of shears that leave a less ragged edge.
I always learn something new tuning in!
Thanks for stopping by!

Happy holiday! 💖
Adding HVAC to the second floor will certainly make selling the house infinitely easier if you ever have to.
That's a good point!
Mike, where did you learn all about how to do this, especially the cross bracing? I love learning new things even though I'll never do a project like the one you're working on.
I've been a lifelong learner and I try to tuck knowledge away when I find it, knowing I may need to use it someday. Thanks for stopping by!
You both should be wearing suede gloves. I was an accountant for a sheet metal/pipe-fitter company at one time. Saw too many missing finger tips!!!
It's hard to work with gloves on, but we hear what you are saying. :-)
👍
I hope you get air conditioning on the second floor so you can use the house for as long as you live there!
That's the plan! We want full heat and AC up there. Most of the year, it's uninhabitable the way it is.

I am always amazed how my husband can bend things and they're straight. It must be an innate talent. lol
It seems to take a combination of insistence and persistence.

I've always looked older than my age. Jeanie has always looked younger than her age. We're both in our 50s.
@@1834RestorationHouse You guys have so much energy.... We are jealous!
