    The cost of materials for casing both sides of this door was approximately $77.00 USD. That does not include the labor to install it, prep it, or spray it with a final coat. I would charge $550.00 to do everything- supply material, install, and finishing.

      You do realize he is also making a video while working right? This isn't his normal pace I'm sure.

      Thank you for adding material cost and your bid price. As a new contractor, that really helps. Love your channel! Amazing work!

      Joe T - You're a condescending guy and a bad employee, it seems.
      He's trying to teach and show people in this video. Speaking slowly, being deliberate, and repeating yourself are KEY when teaching. There's nothing in this video that could give you an idea of how fast he works when he's actually working. These videos are a separate project for him, he's even said in other videos that he only does them when he has extra time because he wouldn't be able to work at his normal pace and make videos.

      My old boss would literally run from inside the house out to the saw to try to finish the jobs fast and increase profit. I saw him always stressed out and he eventually got a divorce. It is really sad. I say that to say this, speeding through jobs is never good for this type of work. You will spend just as much time fixing mistakes. I am going really slow here. This took 4 hours to shoot the video and plan all the scenes. We had approval from the homeowner to take as much time as we needed. If I was normal paced this would have taken about an hour. Nothing wrong with working fast but also nothing wrong with working slow :) and I prefer to work slowly and comfortable. I don't charge by the hour. I charge by the job so it make sense.

    You are adding value in so many ways, not just showing us how a professional works but also you are a great roll model for the younger generation. There is a shortage of skilled labor in the work force and is not getting better. You are an example of a young man who has built a name and reputation for himself in the trades and that you can make a very decent living doing so. Love your videos they have taught this old dude how to do it right.

Thanks again for your dedication and professionalism to the craft and providing us with your knowledge, cheers from Las Vegas.

    i love the tips and techniques you provide with your clear, understandable descriptions. My brad nailer bit me once, when I was installing cove moulding on the floor of a bathroom. I had changed to shorter brads, but was unaware that a single 2" plus brad remained in the chamber. That single long brad found its way through the moulding, the drywall and made a tiny hole in the pex line feeding the toilet. An expensive oops!

    Just want to say I really enjoy the videos you make. I am.a Contractor in upstate NY and I truly enjoy finished carpentry. A lot of your techniques are very similar to mine when it comes to preassembling casement for doors/doorways and windows. How you mark instead of measure and how you make sure everything runs together properly. Never used a Starrett gauge or a couple other of your other marking gauges but I've definitely added them to my cart on Amazon now. Really nice work. I'm glad to see great minds do great work no matter who or where they are. Keep up the excellent work!

I'm still pretty new to doing trim work and I like what you've done so much I'll recommend it on my future jobs and use it for my personal projects. Also, that main entrance door you did, the real ornate fancy one, that was amazing and you can link it here for your fans who haven't seen it, that was awesome and something I'm gonna try to duplicate myself. Keep up the good work.
