I bought the jamb kit at THD which therein contains *ZERO* useful instructions or measurements. It is important to note that if you buy one of these kits, the two notches for the joints at the top net out to ⅝". Plus the ¼" to leave an ⅛" on both sides of the door, that's door width (e.g., 32" in the video) plus ⅞" (i.e., 32-⅞" for the top in the e.g.). As I watched the video a bit further, I realized that this caveat also applies to the the height measurement. This information is crucial to know prior to making your cuts on the jamb kit.

No matter how much you explain the horrible imperial system i am still confued! Just switch over metric already

This video covered literally nothing. How are they different? What is hollow core and what is solid core? Solid core is not solid wood door so what is it. Mind boggling that this video got made.

Are the Brad nails the only thing securing the jamb to the studs? Or do you screw them in at some point? I have a pre hung door from Masonite that I need to install and not sure what screws or nails to use

@TurkstraLumberco 5 ай бұрын

Correct, the only screws that were put into the jamb were for the hinges; the rest is secured by the brad nails.

I have a hollow core do my bedroom is a few ft from the living room every time my fam have guests over I can hear their voices through my wall and door I tried wearing headsets and I still hear them if I upgrade my door to a solid core door will it reduce the sound/voices from going through my door/wall

@TurkstraLumberco 5 ай бұрын

Hello! Yes, a solid-core door will help reduce the noise or at least cut down on the noise being transferred through the door significantly.

Reminds me of my first job right out of high school. 2:09 we used those tables and hammered every plate in before the table lead would ride the roller across. Then we would pull it by hand to the rollers that went outside for final roller press. Then our yard guy would pull it off and stack it by hand. Glad that was my first job I got to see what work was all about. 12 hour days 6 days a week for about $7 an hour.

Good vid especially for the modern day kids. I grew up in the UK at a time when both imperial and metric was part of the school curriculum. I believe the UK still uses both. I've been told the US now teach both but not sure if it's true.

What is that roller for? 2:14 To still keep pressing the metal joints?

@TurkstraLumberco Жыл бұрын

Correct, it is a high-pressure roller that presses the already fastened metal plates even deeper into the wood to be as secure as possible. We have a newer one that you can check out in our updated Life of a Truss video available on our channel!

I wonder ....Those horizontal pieces along the bottom. I wonder if you were to cut them with a slope. It would be easy to do and it would reduce the openings. I suppose the only negative is that air needs to enter and be allowed to travel up the wall and out the top. Hmm. Now you've got me wondering whether I want air to travel as "they" suggest in rain walls.

What kind of wood is best?

@TurkstraLumberco 2 жыл бұрын

We recommend poplar, pine, or even spruce. We used poplar in this video.

You should never install horizontal strapping at bottom of wall, there is flashing with holes in it especially for bottom of walls so the water can come out and bugs can't get in.

Yeah that surprised me as well that they did that.

@ryancanu856 2 жыл бұрын

Hey DTM, Ryan from Terra Nova Homes here. Thanks for watching and commenting! That's another method. The method that we use is equally effective. You need those gaps for air and moisture. Bugs will not get in the gaps because we fill the gaps with a plastic cheesecloth-like product that allows the air flow and stops the bugs. We don't use the flashing with holes in it because we've found that it is weak and it bends and it doesn't give us a straight, strong enough finish.

Thank you. Loved your video. Was looking for projects you can make out of pine especially pine 2x4’s. I have so much 2x4 scraps I would like to find a good use for.
