I like that it takes AAAs. I don't like how much of those it takes. Indoor battery life is not impressive and outdoors (in Finland) it is abysmal.

Or use a t-square lined up with the truss and where you want your screws. Sometime repairing a metal building the trusses are bent and you will miss screws if you go perfectly straight.

Bud...tou dont assume that all is hunky dory up there on the roof...one almost always ends up having to steal a bit...that is why you have datum lines and to get perfect rows you use a good old chalk line....people have been doing this stuff for many wheels ..learn from them instead of trying yo reinvent the wheel...otherwise you are going to get into some embarassing situations...costly too.

Neat

How many yards do you think it illuminates?

Never do this, when working with big roofs there is tons of play in the sheet withch causes movement, you ALWAYS snap lines after applying 1 or 2 screws per row

As a roofer here's a pro tip for you. Put your screw in the valley that is left to the ridge. And also place your screw to the right of the ridge where it overlaps. Don't put your screw in the middle of the ridges. 🛠️🤠

You don't screw it from the middle. You screw at the first flat before and after the ridge, or two per flat, not one in the center.

Hopefully all the purlins are running true because if they run out , your predrilled holes will start missing center

I would definitely paint over that tho cuz that looks gross

Self drilling tek screws do not need pre drill, the ends are like drill bit themselves, saves double the work

Hello, great video! So very helpful! Thank you for sharing it even with the troubles you had! It was very helpful!! Ron Nail’s videos are a great resource. I’ve done 6 deer hides to completion and have several others in different stages. Every one is a learning experience. I really want to try hunting a bear in the future and tanning the hide is part of that. 😊

Looking to do something similar, how did that well work out ?

Every time these sheets even breath on each other, they get scratched! Get help if you stack them!!

So with aviation snips you need two different kinds for cut direction, but I only see one kind of old school tin snips. Is there any disadvantage to just getting one pair of the old kind, if you mostly work with plastic and don't use them often?

The A frame portion is facing the wrong direction !

Not to crazy about all those metal shavings up there.... ill just keep running the screws in.

quick tip measure and check 15 times

You need better drill bits

Full of violence video. Hate of u all . Shame to u all

Great tip, thank you kind sir.

Ciao,ma quelli non sono grembiuli usa e getta,sono grembiuli monopezzo che possono essere riutilizati,dovresti indossare anche un bel paio di stivali bianchi😂😂

Wow pro tip dont drill there always top of rib this is just stupid

Me and my son put a new roof on his house, and we worked out a system where one of us took a sixteen penny nail and punced a hole everywhere a screw was needed and the other just ran the screws in. We banged it out pretty quick.

Always smart to even keep all looking straight, although may not work whilst resheeting an older roof as purloins may not be aligned straight enough to keep the persistent line causing unnecessary holes. To stop the screw dancing around, keeping a hold on the washer whilst you put a fair bit of pressure to start off the hole, then it should be smooth sailing from there

Any idea what size wrench is needed to crack then two tensioner bolts off. Borrowed a buddy’s 247 and the hydraulic line for the drive motor rusted out. So gotta pop the track to get to it 😤

We used a story pole to line up where the screws would go and marked it with a black marker then went back abd pre-drilled two pieces at a time (both tightly clamped together). Tip top layout. Less to do once it's up there where things are more awkward.

Broth gorgeous 🎉

I love watching videos that people actually know what they’re doing like this guy he pre-drilled his metal roof sheets and he didn’t even do the stupid way. People would usually do it so either this guy is a good DIY or he is a great roofer for himself because usually people that I watch these videos, they decide to do the most stupidest way and do it in every single rib, instead of the flat part good job my guy

I would add that once you line up all sheets, you drill the first two holes on opposite sides and go ahead and run screws through them to hold them in place while drilling the rest of the holes. You wouldn’t want your sheets to wonder while drilling. Hope this helps :))

You pre drill all the sheets together

Hi, I am about to attempt on breaking a large rock with feather and wedges. I have the exact same hammer drill you are using in this video, the holes I will be drilling are 3/4”, should I get a 3/8” drill bit to start so it makes it easier for the 3/4”drill bit or just start by using only the 3/4” drill bit? Thanks the 3/4” sds plus drill bit I have is the Diablo demon, I have 2 of these

its not :pre drilling". its just drilling.

You're advice is good, we always pre drill the metal. Your fastener placement is way off. We use Everlast II corrugated metal and fastener placement is critical in the durability of the metal. The screws should be placed in the flat beside the overlapping rib and on the same side of each rib after that. A screw should also be placed on the overlapped side in the flat against the rib. This totals five screws per lathe. The metal we use comes with fastener placement instructions. Also, layout is very important when using the pre drilled method. Triple check your layout before drilling any holes.

That’s a dull bit.

Looking for some info. I bought a sheep skin on a medieval market, but it keeps smelling of sheep. Will smoking it, help removing the smell?

Have you ever changed the inside boggie wheel the first small one inside directly behind the track tensioner mount i got it wll loose but it doesn't have enough room to come out

The rubber gasketed screws easily go in without pre drilling

Make one more video with Cristal like this ❤

How do you put tension back on the track? Do you push tighten the nut at the bottom?

How do u fix it?

I skipped the pre drill. No pain at all. Maybe better screws?

I was wondering if feed bags could be used as grow bags...thank you so much for this video 💜

Excellent Pro tip Now caulk those holes ,,set screws,into caulked holes,. Roofing screw washers , fail from over torque,UV's ,weather. Old threaded screw holes rot ,caulk first then torque screw heads. We used 5200 marine caulk 20 yrs ago ,,not only seals ,also adheres . Get those cuttings off the roof ASAP.

Company will tell you to ever put holes or install screws in the valley, always on the top. This has multiple advantages. Some companies void the warranty when you put holes like you did here.

Slap a chalk line and carry a center punch. All it takes is a small tap of a center punch and the screws won’t walk. It’s less work and you take less chance on you offsetting screw holes on accident

Makes it easier, but the metal shards that are shot out can embed on the sheet since they’re hot and can speed up corrosion. I’d probably still do it tho lol, I suck at stabilizing the drill on metal and will scratch it anyway

Are those your pets?🎉🎉🤌🏾

Us:(literally tries everyone to get rid of super pig) Super pig:(literally unfastened and unharmed) Us:I give up,there here to stay.

Apron please!!
