I really like how Tom worked with the young man on the DW. I absolutely love seeing the younger people learning home maintenance. These are things they will never forget!!
It could be that additional lights are going up there and the set itself are centered along the width of the porch. In such cases, it's not always possible to center a light on the plank. And keep in mind that the home owner is also an architect and the architect for this job.
Could be that it was the owner preference. The light over my sink is not centered because I didn't want a shadow when I was using the sink so the light is set closer to the back.

@@scotttovey Yes, I initially thought of that, but didn't see anything in the way to force it a half inch off the plank center. At that point, I would've ignored the architectural reflected ceiling plans and move it a ½" to center it on the plank. It just looks micky mouse not to. I realized decades ago that in the real world it's more important that something looks right than being actually right. For example if the house is slightly out of true level, you don't stick something on it that's true level, but sightly off level in the same degree as the house so it looks right; if you don't, that something is always going to look out of level even though it's perfectly level.
@@Oldhogleg "At that point, I would've ignored the architectural reflected ceiling plans and move it a ½" to center it on the plank. It just looks micky mouse not to." Not when the home belongs tot he architect you wouldn't. You would be forced to do it the way the home owner instructed and then most likely terminated from the job. Your taste is irrelevant when you do not own the property. You are being paid to do it the way they tell you to do it. On the other hand, if you asked the home owner if the adjustment was OK, and he agreed; then you would be free to make the alteration.
As a Texan, the whole concept of heated floors is so funny to me. I know up north it's gotta be great, but like heated seats in cars, I just can't find it in me to care.
There's nothing like having a chandelier over a dining table, so that when someone stands at the table and leans over to pick up something from the table, he bangs his head on the chandelier.
I love how TOH keeps getting more and more diverse. Now half of the subs can barely speak English. Awesome getting those diversity quotas met at any cost! Good job getting the mumbling subcontractor that you can't understand, very inclusive TOH! You are missing a trans Asian subcontractor, why the exclusion?

"All that screwing around paid off". Love it Tom
I love watching Tom teach!!!!!!!
Tom is a gem.
Just a wealth of knowledge that ole boy is
Love the crew. Everyone is great at teaching. Very helpful.
Tom really enjoys teaching
Boy,”Tom is one man that knows what he is doing nice job.
It pains my OCD greatly that the 4in porch light isn't centered in the board... exterior looks amazing though!
me too it poked me in the eye and was all I could think about until Tom started teaching the kid
Like they say: God is in the details!
Perfection is a killer...

Same!
I needed this when we were trying to install drywall on our addition! We got it done but it was ugly at times.
I would've centered the porch ceiling LED light fixture in the middle of the ipa plank, otherwise it looks like a mistake.

@@Oldhoglegsame here. Light should’ve been centered in the ipe board. Little bad details gives a sign of other things not right

Move north big boy you wont last a week
@@RandomVids519 Pass
I hope that boy realizes how lucky he is to be learning from Tommy!
Don’t seem like those guys learned anything from Sheetrock 😂 and he left em up there with one sheet up 😂
Zachary should work with a group of guys that do sheetrock & mud installation.
Cover the shingles?!?! Getto Tommy, real getto... #codeminus
Hope this boy takes up a trade after this.
Why would anyone leave those shingles and drywall over them? Yikes...
Extra insulation and less work

Especially one made out of thin glass! Then you get glass in your food for some extra crunch.
Curious to see so many brazilians on this particular crew.
The Boton area has a large Brazilian population. They are fabulous workers. They know their stuff and are a delight to work with.
Boy some people have it made with all the luxury.
That guys face is pulled back wayyy to much😂
Tommy is seriously next level. He makes it look so easy. To be able to think as he does… Hopefully he procreates!
Wish I could afford to do something like this.
Good thing u have your sleeves rolled up.
Season 43….Homeboys got some legs. although this job is endless
What if PBS runs out of material??
The Apocalypse
"Orthogonal" this man says, trying to drop in fancy math terms that just mean perpendicular to seem...fill in the blank.
Comments turned off on next TOH eps 23. Who said something naughty?
2:21 I would not have shown that light installed so off center. Little bad details like that are horrible.
Wow, tom Silva's thumb looks like hes hit it a million times with hammers. jesus.
