HOW MUCH COST THOSE SUN GLASSES ERIC 🤔
"easiest way to get to sleep, and stay asleep" - So... probably not the best product to drink on a busy building jobsite then?
Sorry, after the last round of complaints about a sponsor I couldn't help myself lol
Keep up the great work guys 👍
OLD VIDEO THIS HOUSE BEEN BUILT YOU NOT BUILDING ANY NEW PROJECTS
hey Jamie, you ever considered getting a small tablet to look at the plans and such onsite? larger than a phone but still smaller and more portable form factor than a laptop.
i wont lie. the way i see you guys work. makes me want to intern as a builder. but I live in a completely different country and its not easy to find work. If i knew you guys id definitely ask to volunteer with you guys. i reckon i could learn so much
I'll be honest, as a european and a non-builder I have no idea what you are explaining 90% of the time but its entertaining as hell
lol
Hahhaha for real
IKR!!!😂😂😂😂😂
I think they are the same
They don’t know what there explaining either. Don’t feel left out.
The cuts to Jamie looking peeved about the lack of lines for the saws had me DYING. Thanks for this on a long Thursday.
I know right?! Its hilarious.
getting really good at storytelling
We always cut the underside of the bottom plate before fixing to the ground. 1/2" cut underneath makes it very easy to cut out later without risk of damaging the floor
that's pretty genius
That's the way I was taught to do o before standing frames.
Came here to say this 👍
Great tip, thanks!
Genius!
200 boards times 6 seconds is 20 minutes of savings, so not too shabby 💪
thx for the math
Correct
the problem is they didn't get a baseline measurement. How long would it take to set the tape measure, make a tick and then pick up the saw?
It's not like he doesn't have to measure if he's not using the square. So it's probably 50% of that, ~10 minutes total.
@@urbanweekendwarrior7238 but the difference in operations is only after setting the tape and making the tick mark... So the test they did is accurate I think.
It's about removing the step of grabbing a square and making a line.
@@alexanderh.3655 he told Jamie to start the clock when he sets the tape measure. That and the first tick were counted in the 6s
How does 22 minutes seem like 22 seconds?! Time flies when you're watching the Perkins crew! 😍
200 boards times 6 seconds is 20 minutes not 2 so the video have same rule to it :D
I love the 3 hour videos with the whole compilation wish they would make them longer too it’s addicting in a great way most relaxing to me
@@Rebel-76 I see a lot of building in the videos enough to keep me entertained Jaime does talk a lot but most general contractors do I like the videos so I am going to keep watching them
@@Rebel-76wow
@@Rebel-76 the don’t watch the fact your on here commenting when people are trying to watch speaks volumes of what your trying to do not everyone goes into these channels talking trash people that truly put themselves into these channels are the people that are themselves if people don’t like it they don’t have to be here watching I like them because I have family that are contractors I sometimes go on the job sites and it’s what I see it doesn’t bother me
Good on you guys for removing the gambling ad. Shows integrity and you guys clearly have a lot of it
You can be on that
😂
Thank you!
Fair play to them. Does amuse me that they always pretend that they actually use the products they advertise. They should do ads like on the tally ho build, those are hilarious.
Time to move on. There's a house to be built and things to learn.
Stud Pack and Perkins Builder Brothers, two of the most humble and hard working crews on UA-cam. Probably two of my favorite channels, I’d love to come work with you guys for a few days.
Agree
agreed. my two favorite channels by far.
Got to add CEE in there too
I am the President of Greensboro Vending & Coffee, I have wonderful employees and we consider each other family. You guys remind me of my company, it is so great to have people working for you that you also consider family, everyone working together. Love the videos and hope to one day meet each and everyone of you. Keep the videos coming, I love them and I learn something from each one. Erik the way you and Jaime explain every detail is awesome, I especially love when Jaime gets on a roll and you put your hand to the camera, lol, keep them coming my friend.
studpack colab, OMG!!! The coolness overload factor is going nuclear
The shots and editing on Jaime reacting to Erik cutting boards 🤌💯
19:30 Those kind of windows are extremely common here up north since most houses have fully buried basements so if you want ventilation or egress it's the only option. As for the drain it just leads straight down to the weeping tile at the footing of the basement then to either the sewer or a sump pit to be pumped out of the house. The drain for the window is mostly just to prevent water pooling and running trough the window into the house.
Egress is also required if the room is designated as a bedroom.
Loving the build lads. PRO TIP from the land down under, precut your bottom plate 10mm from the underside on each of the door openings before you stand the frame so that your not destroying blades at every door jam. saves time and money.
@1:00 Prior to standing and setting the frame in position, partially run a cut about 1/2" deep across the bottom face of the bottom plates on each side of all the door openings, making it easier to remove them later.
Cheers from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
Hey my carpenter brothers. I just watched y'all double cutting the bottom plates in your doorways, ruining your oscillating blades. The way I do it is when I'm laying out the wall, I set my circular saw at 3/4" and relief cut the door opening on the bottom side of my bottom plate. I hope this saves y'all some $ and time. I'm a 30yr carpenter from Michigan, and I really enjoy the realness of your channel. GOD bless the crew and your loved ones. 💪🏽
Same brother. Northern Ontario.
Me too west coast BC
Jamie's note about layout at 4:25 is exactly the question I've been unable to find an answer to! Thanks for clarity!
I’m not in construction but I still watch you guys. Relaxing and funny.
Just watching these videos make me doubt my choices in jobs sometimes. The way you guys have fun while working, but also are so skilled at what you are doing and getting room to improvise is something to be envious about!
I really enjoy watching the crew working with wood, the times you lost doing the concrete foundations yourselves will be picked up with your framing skills.
The best thing to watch Thursday after work 🔥
PS: Checked who Larry Haun was, and what I saw he was a really awesome framer ♥
A great tip I saw once on another channel (don’t remember who sorry) when you’re framing door openings on concrete before you raise the wall score the bottom of the plate in the opening like a quarter inch or so, so that when you cut the bottom of the plate out you don’t have to run your saw blade into the concrete
When you were explaining the door opening whether it was centered and you were using zoom, it said C.O. which I would assume means Centered Opening. Love what you guys are doing
That’s funny, Jason when he said, I think it’s a low frame for good for privacy. You’re like what is somebody hiding in the ceiling you guys are funny. That’s what makes us watch the show and to learn.
It's such a pleasure watching you guys and your construction projects !! I'm a new viewer to your channel and like how you tackle each project !! Full explanation with positive comments !!
Keep 'em coming boys !! 👍🇺🇸🥸
I'm a builder from South Africa myself and you guys are the best, albeit that we don't use wood nearly as much as you guys. All the best gents....
Mighty fine reel, with the framing now well underway, the drone footage really captures how massive the footprint of the ground floor is. Beauty edit Eric...
Hey Erik, while you are laying out your bottom plates for your wall, cut about 3/4”deep on the under side of your plate so when the wall is stood and it’s time to cut out door plates you want cut into the concrete. Works for interior walls when remodeling too!!
And just like that this episode is over. Thanks for the infotainment @PerkinsBuilderBrothers and crew.
Looking forward to the collab w/ the @StudPack crew. It was a pleasure meeting and talking to those three at your 1 million subscribers celebration!
The cutting without a square line works well if you’ve been cutting as long as we have. Plus you have the sight lines of the saw foot that you can reference. It works and is way more efficient.
Can’t wait to see the floor system! Good work gentleman! Stay safe.
Can’t wait to see how this turns out. Might be your best build yet
Me too!
Hello Jaimie and Eric, Michael from Colorado here. Most homes in the state have basements, and basements are required to have at least one window (with the window well) as a means of escape and overall safety. Keep up the great work!
Yep it's funny to hear their take on window wells considering they're so ubiquitous here. Galvanized steel is the most common, and the ones that have to be replaced after about 20 years. Other more "custom home" options are HDPE plastic and precast concrete. The precast concrete ones have found their way into more production homes as of late I've noticed.
I have HDPE plastic window wells and have only ever seen them on one or two other houses in the area out of the hundreds of yards I'm in a year.
Yep, required for egress!
A tool tip Erik, if you subtract the measurement from the saw base to the blade, then you can put a tick mark and hold your speedsquare to it, then jam the saw up the the square and cut fast perfect 90°😃 usually the saw base is 1"1/2 so just subtract a 1"1/2 from your measurement 😄
I always did the Larry Haun square cut putting the tick mark on the side of the board away from me. Then I would line up the notch on the front of my saw with the tick mark. Then flush the front of the saw to the 2x4, which gets it square, and plunge the saw in to the cut and finish by aiming the blade at the tick mark.
With 200 cuts a day and saving 6 seconds at each cut, gives you a total of 1200 saved seconds = 20 minutes !! ;)
Love your show by the way - Cheers from Jesper in Denmark / Europe.
Window wells are very common in areas where basements are common. Whether for smaller windows to allow ventilation and light to basements in a flat lot and being utilized as living space. Specially with basement bedrooms for egress
You can’t go wrong with following Larry Haun’s methods.😊😊
For cutting out door plates we score through about half of the bottom with the skill saw so we only have to use the sawzall to finish the cut once the wall is set.
Hey,PRO TIP!!!when building inside pars.on cement floor score the bottom plate wth circular saw half way through. So when cutting out door plates wth recipacating saw only have to cut half way through done not even close to floor.No marks and saves tons of blades.
Dividing the number of studs and replacing them as king and jack studs works as an estimation for smaller openings but the recommended installation for larger openings is greater since the shear distribution along the length of the opening is non-linear. That is, there is an exponential change in shear force along the opening that has to be accounted for by increased supporting members.
I’m happy you guys keep Larry Haun in mind. He was the framer’s framer.
I found you guys back in 2022 when we had just bought some land in Tn and were planning our build from Louisiana. Wanted to see the process since I wasn’t going to be there much to see the process in person. We have been in our home for nearly a year now but I still look forward to Thursdays and Sundays for your video uploads because it’s still so fun to watch you guys! Can’t wait to see how this one turns out! What a mega mansion!!
Nice trick shot! I usually just pull it fully one direction. Then I'll start the second screw in the second direction until it has some bite. Then I'll back the first one out. Finally, draw everything tight in the second direction with screw #2. Trick shots way faster!
Really miss Arlow how’s about having him come cut some boards or the risers for that snakes and ladders staircase, enjoying the content from cptSA ♥️🇿🇦
I’m happy to see Eric and Jay embracing their inner Larry Hahn! The guy was a master carpenter and knew all the tricks to get the job done right and done quickly. God bless Larry Hahn and Johnny Cash.
Egress windows very common in the northeast. Most homes have full footprint basements and if you create living spaces in basement, codes usually require one egress window for every bedroom
Windows below grade is SUPER common where I live.. Window wells framed in concrete or corrugated metal with a drain is Code here for ANy basement room. THe rooms MUST have a window to escape from...
That is normally code just for bedrooms. So theaters and office dont always have the egress out, ie anything with a closet gets egress out with window that a firefighter can fit through.
@@01Hokiefan Where I live every room except a storage room and furnace room needs egress in new construction . Theatre room/living room, bedrooms and bathrooms..
The Larry Haughn (sp?) is absolutely hilarious especially the looks from Jamie
and everything.
That low door frame hints at FLLW. He liked low doors and even ceilings on entryways and then the room opens up as you walk into it. It is a space separator
i watch both you and stud pack, and when they mentioned they had a huge collab coming up i had a hunch it was on this build haha thats awesome cant wait to see the next video
Can't wait to see that video with stud pack I love both channels. That should be a really good video.
You courtesy cut your sill 3/4 when you layout at bottom-pro tip.Ive done double 2x4 walls at 2' thick for insulation.We have lots of snow and mega homes,accordian doors with 20' spans, big headers.Lots of steel and glue lam.
About that Lary Haun cutting without tracing, I was wondering why don't you americans use a chop saw ? It seems to me it would accomplish the speed and the accuracy
Great job as always boys. Only thing id do different is cutting the jacks continuous, from plate to header. And place top trimmer in between.
Great video, the build is starting to look like a house now!! LOL The 22 minutes fly by so fast, I wish they were longer! Looking forward to the next video!!
19:30 those egress windows are pretty common around where my parents live in Indiana. They actually had some installed in the basement, because without them the only egress from the entire finished basement was a single staircase. That said, shortly after installation, they actually flooded the basement, so you make a compelling point that they're not necessarily a great idea when there are alternatives.
In Australia we back cut the wall frame at the opening. Then stand the wall and cut the top.
Ugh! Engineering is complicated but so needed with big walls! We ran into a similar header issue with our windows on our front 20ft tall wall... we had it planned for 5 windows by the CAD designer but the wall engineers were concerned about the load over the door. So we cut it down to 3 windows and bumped them off to the side.
But our builders lifted our back wall with a 16ft triple plate engineered wood header into place from the ground, 20ft below the top plate 😮. Sketchy to watch but they got it done 😵💫
Glad to see you guys taking the time to work out the fine details and make sure everything is perfect ❤
So funny to hear you talk about window wells. I'm from Salt Lake City, Utah and almost every home here has a basement with window wells. We have a smaller home with only 3, but a typical rambler (ranch style home) with a basement will have 5+. Every location is different!
Pro tip, when working on finished floors, leave the jacks out till after you stand the wall. Then you can use a circular saw set to correct depth to cut the bottom plates 1.5” away from the king stud. Then add the jacks
Larry Huan approved.
*probably
I like to do this. If the Jack is a bit twisted it will be straightened too😄
genius tip with the zooming to scale and then swiping over
Newer subscriber here and loving it, I went to trade school for carpentry way back before most if not all of you were even born 🤔😭 and I absolutely love the "Normalize going to trade school" T-shirt! The way you guys do these step-by-step educational videos is amazing, keep up the great work guys and can't wait to see this completed project! Yes the window wells is a fire code for emergency escape route and I wish they would have had this when I was in the 6th grade as it would have saved my best freinds life!
You guys should hook up with Mike Rowe (yes the Dirty Jobs guy) and get on his podcast to increase the viewer education numbers on bringing back Trade Schools!
Great idea getting with studpack like both your channels!
I guys, FYI, I was taught back in the early 70s I would cut halfway through the bottom plates at the doorway so then all you would have 2 do is cut the down the top half staying away from the floor .....J/S........
Great to hear you talking up Larry Haun.
Of all the homes in the last few years.. this may be my very favorite one. I do miss Arlo though.
Ray and Jay with their hands up! 'Who's Emmy?' That was funny.
Basement window wells I'm familiar with, and yes typically in IBC it needs to be an egress window, typically a 2'0 x 4'0, minimum, if that space is lived in.
I personally set up my miter box/cross cut saw during framing. Mostly for sills, headers, cripples and I cut them all at one time. Then I build headers for the whole job. Less moving around. I only use my circular saw for long plates or sheathing/decking.
Dangit just like that the video is over. I don't know what it is about you guys, but your videos are awesome. Wish they were longer. Lol. Keep up the good work Perkins crew.
Where can I find the normalize going to trade school shirt Jamie wears in this episode? Keep up the momentum. It's great to see employers that take care of their employees and work hard along side of them. My wife and I really enjoy your content.
If you have a basement basement being used for regular basement purposes and you have only one entrance inside the house, those windows act as an egress in case the house catches fire while you are in the basement (or you get locked in somehow) and they allow some outside light to get in in case the inside lights stop working.
Here in BC Canada you need according to code windows in your below grade basement that are big enough for someone to escape through, for fires. Not sure on the details, as in how many windows per room or per sqft or the min/max size. This is especially true if you try and rent out your basement. Even with this house being a half basement if the owners wanted to rent out a suite in the basement they would have to at least add windows to any below grade bedroom. Not a builder but both lived as a renter and as a landlord.
I grew up in UT where homes have a basement due to frost lines. Every home seems to also have window wells. Not sure if it is for egress to meet code. That makes sense to me. Of course, it also makes a place black widow spiders liked to set up home. As a teen I framed a bedroom in the basement. That window became my only source of natural light.
Jay's socks for the win!
me and my brother always enjoy you guys videos
Well these home owners have a lot of cash. I love this build so far, and honestly I'm just really happy to see the walls going up. Keep being awesome at what you guys do! Absolutely love every part of what you guys do on this channel.
For square cuts without using a speed square, hook your tape in the center of the stud. Then pull the tape out to the right distance placing your index finger and pencil on the number you want and arc scribe a line. Works great up to 2x6. Takes some practice to use this method on wider boards.
the little sneak peak into the “future” when u show ur adds makes it so exciting. cannot wait for more videos to be posted!
As an architect 5 per side would be accurate using wood members bc of the static and live loads above and bc of the opening dimension.
I’d use a steel moment frame instead for efficiency’s sake but that’s just me, lol….also subsurface egress windows are MANDATORY in many jurisdictions, and they’re typically plumbed externally into the French drain of the house.
Jamie is a character 😂
Just picked up a tube of Lexel, never heard of it until you guys. So that partnership is working
Hey Perkins crew when laying your wall out if you cut the bottom side of your sill in half where the door opening is after you set your wall in place you only have to cut through half of the 2x when cutting out thedoor sill opening
@RayJones how is your home reno going? Maybe u could have "Larry" Ellis show us the progress one day? ❤
I can't wait to see this one done guys ❤ it's looking awesome ❤
make the mark and hold the speed square to run the saw against. Always correct. If you were to eyeball 2x6 or greater, then the cuts would probably not be square and you have to trim it again, costing time. No point drawing the line with square, just hold the square and place the saw against it.
Getting into the framing grove! Love it guys. I hope to come visit sometime! Love from NWA! ❤
No matter what happened you’re still my # 1 channel.. l love perfect imperfections!
Nice job on the header placement.
Framing crew I was on in '79, we got in trouble if we used a square on a x6 or x4. Line 'er up, drop 'er down. None of our Skilsaws had working guards.
EVERY DAY IT GETS BETTER AND BETTER!!!
The thicker walls have been done for centuries. They add a stately elegance to the rooms they are featured in. I've done it quite a bit in Dallas Fort Worth spec homes since my first one in 1977, with my other company.
My favorite time of the week!!
I wait impatiently for Thursday and Sunday just to watch your videos guys.
Keep killing it!!
Coming along great guys. Your channel and Stud Pack and the only two building channels worth watching. Thanks for sharing with us.
So far I've purchased from 2 of your sponsor's, Keeps & Factor meals. I'm surprised how good the Factor meals are and how easy it makes my lunch/dinner. Coming into almost 4 months of Keeps and I think I'm seeing progress. Thanks, Love you guys!
The window below grade drawn on those plans didn't seem large enough to be an egress window. It was probably just placed there to let some natural light into the space.
Framing is progressing nicely!! It was hard to tell just how massive this house will be until you started the framing!!!
This giant house is stressing me out, boyos. Can we do a regular one next time?? :D
Rad is a nut case, but so physically capable. Can't wait to see the next episode.
Extra pro tip! Whenever framing walls on a finish concrete floor, set the depth on your saw to 3/4” and score the bottom plate at the door openings at your jack stud layout so when cutting out door plates, you can finish the cut from the top with a sawzall!!!
Metal window wells used all the time up here in the MIdwest (Wisconsin) They're a nice below grade landing place for all the leaves and paper ( & water 😂)
