Is the metal back dam a custom piece or did you order it with the windows? If custom, where did you order from? Thanks for this video.

great presentation. it is nice to see somewhere in the world high standards for building materials are still maintained. and lucky, we can at least import those products to here in the US. i get concerned about the super thin veneer products from China, including stone, that are filled with a plastic inner core that will not last and pose a risk during a fire. thanks for posting.

this video was not what it advertised. Its not really a tour. its not really someone going to figure out how their product is made and sourced, its waaaaay too technical for that. he asks this is where the stain is applied, then the next guy says yes, this is where we brush the stain on, then the next guy says these are stain buffers to put the stain in, then he asks, is this where you stain the boards? Yes, this is where we stain the boards. If its not the color we want..... Do you ever send it through again? yes, if we want more color, we send it through the staining process again. HOLY SHTT THIS WAS AN HOUR OF YOU HAVING AN ADHD BREAKDOWN. I can't take this level of ADHD, and I really want to see a tour of this place because its fantastic.

I live in Michigan…..everywhere I look there are massive White, and red Oak trees , many 60+” diameter, straight trunks 30-40’ to the first branch. I grew up in a city named Royal Oak. Thousands of these trees in the yards of many homes.

Stub out in copper on nice houses. Stub out in pex on cheap houses. Stub out waterline at 8” above finish floor for toilet unless your in a nice house that may have 8” baseboard, in which case verify with the builder. And never install a manifold system in any house because they are totally dumb and a huge waste of money

I think the proposed build up (26:05 oak - spruce - oak) is choosen to have enough wood in the middle for the "Lamello Tenso"-connection system (to make a "beam" 37:07).

@helmsburgsawmill could point you in the right direction better than me. My property has 50-60 90+’ white oaks with first defect around 30’-40’. Additionally the Navy maintains hundreds of acres of white oak forests in Indiana specifically for future harvest for the uss constitution. There are a TON of good sawmills that do the lengths you are looking for and an over abundance white oaks in the Ohio river valley. I’m not an expert but to say ‘these quality of logs don’t exist in North America’ is silly. The us government alone has been managing oak forest longer than 100 years.

@@NSBuilders see above message but tbh - if you want to come visit I’ll host you in my house. I have a large guest bedroom and live close to a ton of sawmills you could tour (1-5 hour drive). I promise our white oak is equal to or better than french… without the pomp and circumstance

Sounds like they picked this vendor not just because of the length but the overall package... Wood quality, length, finish, fabrication, customization. And I'm sure French Sourced Oak Milled In Germany will read 'cooler" on the sales brachure
@koenraadprincen72125 күн бұрын
Talking about "going great lengths" for getting the wood you realy want! Interesting video! I didn't knew about the cosmetic changes they apply to make it look good. On the other hand, this makes everything a bit too much "man made". Second thought, 4 weeks after everything is installed, you don't notice all the details anymore. You wouldn't even notice the difference between these "White Oak"-boards and a sanded LVL (in a matter of speaking).

_"Respect to the material, nature in general"_ ...I don't know, but if you look at 29:30 it becomes very much "man made"... I can understand the glueing of the cracks, but replacing the knots with _"better looking knots"_ , huh? They turned the oak in some kind of _triplex_ (plywood with 3 plies).
