    Very cool. Looks like you're doing a series with framing. We get to learn different elements as the series progresses.
    This video had lots of little gold nuggets. Some very good tricks. Cool to see your style of framing and where your headspace is at when approaching different situations. You brought up a few things that I don't think many people have put into a video yet.
    "wavy drywall" might the word choice you were looking for with problems with the drywall.
    You're definitely helping progress the trades with your teaching. Knowledge transfer.

    This is the 5th wall framing video I’ve watched. Not a single one talks about the methodology for snapping your line for the wall- making sure it’s square. Is that not an important detail? As someone who wants to frame a wall soon… would love to see an example.

    Super great video! Enclosing part of garage with wall and a regular door. Great insight into the tools needed. Have everything except the ramset tool. Would be good to have some education around the right grade of studs available from a local home improvement retailer and their purpose. Whitewood, Southern Pine, #2, Appearance grade. When to used pressure treaded, etc.

    If its a door opening, is the new flooring flush with the bottom plate? Great video

    • @grantmaurybuilds
      @grantmaurybuilds  2 роки тому

      Thanks for the support!
      Flooring will typically be installed up to the bottom plate. Depending on the thickness of the flooring materials, most likely it will finish below the top of the bottom plate. Hope that helps answer your question!

  • @allenross8223
    @allenross8223 9 місяців тому

    If you’re framing a wall below a tile floor would you still build it on the floor knowing there won’t be much give to the joists above or stick frame it? If you’d stick frame it how would you handle that? Laser level and chalk line for top and sill plate?

  • @eja0516
    @eja0516 5 місяців тому +1

    I’m confused about the bottom. Will that be cut so you don’t have to step over it when entering/exiting through the door? If you already have flooring and you need to add a wall with a door that bottom piece would be in the way. Since this Reno you’re doing is concrete you might be building up the flooring to the level of the bottom board but what if that’s not the case?

    • @Georgeless
      @Georgeless 5 місяців тому +3

      It depends on what they are planning, if the floor is below that bottom piece, they will just cut it, if not, it will stay.

    on the studs above the header (the top cripples) for securing them to the header do you just leave them unfastened? would you use glue or drill holes on the sides & screw them in at a 45 degree angle to the header?
    additionally instead of studs above the header could you instead just put another solid piece of wood to fill the entire space?

  • @OneWildTurkey
    @OneWildTurkey 9 місяців тому

    Instead of going back 3/4 will you have the same outcome if you measure 3/4 up ? So I usually go 16 3/4 mark my line and put the X where 16 on center would be. Or does it only work going backwards?

    • @SawdustSplinters
      @SawdustSplinters 10 місяців тому +1

      You have to go backwards as you are creating a 16” OC reference from the first stud youre placing at the end of the wall.
      You could go 3/4” up, but most mark ahead for stud placement.

    • @kivy1984
      @kivy1984 9 місяців тому

      Can you just mark the first stud 15 1/4 and then 16” from that. Wouldn’t that technically put the stud markings 3/4” back?

Some things could have been explained a little better, like what "center" means, but above all, I feel confident with the next step in my remodel. You sir are great. Thank you!

    6:45 16 on center, means the middle of the stud is in the center. Studs that are aligned with the edge every 16 inches, are not "on center". Think that could have been explained better about what "on center" actually means.
