    Great idea with FRP we run trim threw table saw we will try it your way next . Adding the plywood next to windows is a good idea I think Ill try 3/4 ply or 1x4 next time. We do the same thing with our tape measures for metal roofing. Some times Ill use different colors for different layouts. The alcohol based hand cleaner takes the marks off my tape instantly. Keep up the great work.

    THX 4 siding vid....well done. Saw you snapping layout for side walls. Don't know if you walk back and forth but if you connect the clips on 2 speed lines 2 guys can stay on layout just reel back and forth whether you are on the ground or on pumps and plank. Not big on story poles day to day(where's the story pole😊) your tape is always with you. Last bit here where I am layout lines are on the house wrap....saw you sheet on deck and a little foresight puts you spot on or at the least very close ie hunting for studs. Like you said stacking your floors/gables is key. Keep the vids coming THX.

    I have sometimes had inconsistent width on siding boards, making the the bottom edge out of line. I use a story board and mark the bottom rather than the top of the boards, making a mark on the trim boards that I install first.

      No...find somebody around you. There's no "magic" to construction. Its been done very-well world-wide for centuries. Hammurabi even wrote the first, & in my opinion, the BEST Buildng Code! If you want to learn excellent construction, learn Manderin Chinese, no joke. If you want to travel the world building, join a BIG Company, & NEVER "work for free"!! Only for your Mamma, do that :-) Says the 68-yr young North Italiano Designer/Builder. I build my structures like somebody's Mamma's going to in it during a Hurricane! Why I prefer WOOD-frame elevated residences, after being in 12 FL/Carib hurricanes. Buona Fortuna!

      That’s a good idea… We have done that too! have found the shimming to be just a bit faster and less dust :-) also on the kind of trim we are using your supposed to repaint any cut edges so that takes extra time.

    • @PerkinsBuilderBrothers
      @PerkinsBuilderBrothers  5 років тому

      Thanks... just a cost thing. It’s always an option for the client, but does add some $$. I do like the zip system better overall though.

    My mom made a comment about ants getting in the house, got us to thinking about putting a piece of aluminum bent at 90' on the bottom, installed before we even put house wrap on. Believe it or not ants can get in right there. Now on every single job we install it :)
    Food for thought!!!!

    Heres my tip.
    If you plan on caulking where the siding & corner trim meet...create a narrow enough gap (16th" +) so the caulking can get a good bite. A scrap piece of that FRP might be the perfect width.
    When caulking starts to peel it really peels.
    Another thing I did was create a spacing tool that sets the reveal exactly where it belongs by hooking the previous course and supporting the one being Fastened.

    • @PerkinsBuilderBrothers

      Plastic or Cement board will not shrink as you think, but are expandable Abit.
      Plastic tends to be fragile and brittle as it's exposed to the sun. Concrete will absorb some moisture, which it tends to breathe, cracks can occur.

      In Japan they also use FRP to water proof balcony's, bathrooms and such. In that case it's called Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic, so when I looked at this video that's what popped into my mind. I'm going to use that when I rebuild my house; the reason why I watch these videos other than the great Perkins Brothers and their team. Great work Guys!! =)

    One more.... sorry. Saw you guys are driving a 'sinker' to hook chalk line/tape to. Get a scratch all preferably with a thin shaft think ice pick. You can hand tap it in or use your hammer. To release just pull it out, back in your rig as quick as your speed square. No more pulling nails or looking in your rig for the fastener. If you start using it you'll be surprised how much this 3rd hand works especially if you do lot of solo work.
