I could watch this all day man WOW ❗️ your team are amazing hard workers 🔥 im 22 years old and this makes me want to self disciplined myself to overcome bigger obstacles that i havent set for myself and actually take the action to try new trades instead of staying comfortable where im at not making as good money
Old school, I like it. I don’t do this stuff anymore I’m too old and like my shop work now. The team is the most important part of this house, like a well oiled machine it’s a pleasure watching you guys throw it up.
After framing walls and moving material all day I come home and want to watch more at least once a week I say to myself iam going to get a different job...😆😆
Dude I stumbled across you on Tonight. Man you remind me of myself in so many ways. I can tell you love this job and dedicate yourself to being the best at it on a daily basis. I love framing as well. Not to mention you take pride in driving a nail. That’s hard to find in anyway. I’d be up for a nail driving competition if your down. I’m sick with it too. Also hand driving rafters at the wall is the ONLY way in my opinion. Gives me joy to see a younger man taking pride in this trade. I’m only 27 lol but still
Man that’s awesome to hear. I love meeting guys who think of this trade as more than just a job. It becomes effortless when it’s something you absolutely love! I’d be down for one also. I’m confident you’ll win my friend😂👍
@@certifiedladderholder man same here. I’m excited to put my bags on every morning and get to work. I’m hopefully getting my own crew together in the next year so can’t wait for that. Also I have the stiletto TI bone 2. I want the Martinez M1 so bad but I can’t justify paying the money for it. Would it be well worth it in your opinion or no? Because the TI to me is just so comfortable and what I love but it’s getting some wear on it. Not sure how long the grip will last
@@austinjohnson4220 The M1 is a great hammer definitely. It has a way different feel to the Ti Bone though. I love how comfortable the Ti Bone feels too but the M1 has its own feel. Having the ability to replace the grip and the head is an absolute win in my opinion. I think it’s well worth the money. Once you get used to how it swings, you can drive nails like a champ👍
Hard to beat those old paslode guns. They take a beatin and might double fire but they just work. Looks good fellas. And Manchester orchestra? Pretty cool.
This is unrelated but at about 15:00 did the double window with grids on the back of the house get swapped with the double window with no grids on the front?
Was framing contractor for 16 yrs good clean top notch framing guys clean is best. I did big customs back before lvl's had to long v notch and splice 43 ft hips. Ply wood gusit sides and post it or use huge glue lamb lol. Nice work guys
That is crazy you guys are doing hand cut roof! You think, especially with the price of materials nowadays that trusses are the only way to go. We only do hand cuts if there is going to be living space up there. Is that standard in your area or something. That's got to be crazy expensive
What are the shoes you're wearing in the first few minutes of the video? I'm diggin how the heel has minimal elevation, that's not typical for this type of shoe.
@@johnwalker8049 You got it man! Thanks for the comment. I’m actually with Jarod (aka Renegade Construction Boy) right now. We were just talking about the tips you gave! Appreciate it man!
How do you sheet on the ground? Mind going more into detail? Boss is worried about it floating if floor isn't perfect. You obviously square them on ground, what else?
We see crews all around wait to sheet their walls after they stand them. Obviously no floor is perfect but if you square the walls and we always triple check with 2 people, they should be just fine. I can’t remember having many problems with the plates ever floating off the ground. Another thing we do is we hang our sheets down to either tie into the rim board beneath or leave the sheets up so we can tie the wall in later. On walls that are butting other exteriors we leave our corners out and only sheet the middle. That way we can tie every corner in later from the outside. When it comes down to plum and line, we go around and double check our exterior corners. We’ve only had maybe 2 or 3 walls in the years I’ve worked here that needed a little push or pull with the machine.
Also another thing, say you stand the wall without sheeting it. If you have ups and downs in your floor, the wall is going to follow those ups and downs. If you sheet it while the plate is nailed on a straight chalk line, it will remain pretty straight when you stand it. I’d rather have to shim the gaps in the floor than have a wall with a bunch of waves in it. Shimming can also be done with your green plate to insure everything is 👌
Hey man im in lafayette, looking to get into carpentry after school, I have some questions that no one seems to be able to answer for me. Should I do an apprenticeship through the union, if not what are my other options? What are apprentices and journeyman making $ here in northwest Indiana?
Im in the process of 1-2 videos explaining how to get into the trade and what to expect. So I’ll be able to give a better explanation soon. I’m not too familiar with the union side of things in our area but you can make anywhere from $13 starting out as an apprentice all the way up to $40-$45. Non-union framing contractors typically pay around that same scale based off of experience and quality of work.
It's not to often someone hears an excerpt from Alan Watts when a vod starts. Nice. ...Although, I wonder if you got it from Logic's song - in either case, doesn't matter too much, because they're words that resonate as true because they are true. GL 2 U.
Guys, I'm 53 and been in the trade 36 years down here in Florida. Beautiful work. I'm super impressed. You guys are amazing.
I’m in Middleburg Florida basically Jacksonville and am looking to get back into conventional carpentry
I'm 53 and just about to get back into the game. Gotta sharpen up my game
As a fellow carpenter we need more bad ass videos like this. Keep up the good work!
I plan to go into carpentry can I ask you some questions

2:17 - Such a framer moment! Love it.
I just wanted to watch some framing techniques. I didn't ask for my spirit too be awakened. Great commentary.💯💥🖖

Great video!! I truly admire framers and builders that use the Zip System!! Awesome work!
This is very impressive. I have a lot of respect for this kind of work. Cool to watch.
Nice work dude, I’m a 20Y.o. Framer myself, got a few videos up, this is some really good quality stuff

Bravo.... found you through your visit to Vegas and meeting the Perkins crew. Nice work!!! Subbed and instant fan!! thank you

Watts is sublime. Good work, sometimes I miss working with a crew.

More POV please
This is unrelated but at about 15:00 did the double window with grids on the back of the house get swapped with the double window with no grids on the front?
Haha great eye. Just swapped the panels😂
Looks good guys, the only thing I don't see pressure blocks between joists where they bears and overlap.
Pressure blocking where joists bear/overlap is not required in our area. We do install bridging in the spans that require it👍
I'm doing 1 5/8 Advantech right now on the second floor and bruh it's rough 😫 😩 lmao
A little piece weighs as much as a full 3/4 sheet😂
Was framing contractor for 16 yrs good clean top notch framing guys clean is best. I did big customs back before lvl's had to long v notch and splice 43 ft hips. Ply wood gusit sides and post it or use huge glue lamb lol. Nice work guys
How the hell do you only have 169 subscribers!! Please make more videos

Yeah hand cuts are pretty common in my area. Even still with these lumber prices.
What are the shoes you're wearing in the first few minutes of the video? I'm diggin how the heel has minimal elevation, that's not typical for this type of shoe.
Redwing 877’s! Yeah it’s honestly a great shoe. Wears in quite nice

I use my hammer to pick up lumber off the ground all the time. I never realized I did it until someone pointed it out to me.
Awesome video. What camera are you using?
What brand air compressor do you guys run?
Rolair👍
Watching this video, I want to get into carpentry so bad. It's like I've found my purpose in this life.

What do you use for video editing software and is this just filmed with a go pro?
I just use iMovie! Also yes all filmed on a GoPro Hero 8
Great videos seen you on a Perkins builder brothers video I believe at the recent International builders show you have some sweet tattoos also.
