Hey Matt! I just wanted to say I love your framing videos they’re very interesting to watch, even though I do Hvac myself, and watching your vids make me want to do some framing. Lol. Keep up the good content. I’m excited for winery videos as well.

[@riclatham6464]

Amazing Stuff Matt, always love watching your videos. Entertaining and great to see the some young fellas like myself getting into the trade in the US.

[@OneGoneBullet]

Have no idea about siding since I'm a lather but God dawm I support Matt and the crew keep Banging wood boys!!! Cheers from The bay area 🤘

[@FritsvanDoorn]

I am learning with every video. Some day I will frame a house too! Thank you so much for teaching.

[@jlewis1688]

Love how you guy's work , a few scaffold boards and off you go!!

[@AussieWrestlingFan1]

Looks the goods! I’m a carpenter in Australia. What hours do you guys work what’s the usual start and finish time?

[@MattBangsWood]

7:00-3:30. On the project we’re on right now.. 6:30-4:30.

[@baggetja1234]

First! Bang on. Edit: Great tip on gang cutting the angles.

[@paulkhalil1951]

why do you have to install so many strips. can i do with only placing the strips when the sheets meet. or that would not work. are doing it for the look?

[@tompenneck1501]

Great work and film Matt. I understand that you are fixing your battens through to the framing and covering the siding joints. But surely there is a way to equal out the battens? Plus your mate smokes way too much!!

[@MattBangsWood]

On high end homes, we center our framing and our battens and it comes out gorgeous. Low end like this, they don’t want us doing anything but slapping it up unfortunately.

[@utubewatcher360]

I agree with Tom Penneck - the guy smokes too much !! poor guys who don't smoke have to breath his shitty smoke!!! so much for clean air- I would file a work comp against you for allowing second hand smoke to invade my lungs - bad enough your breathing in all that James Hardie silica dust!!!! I give the smoker 10 years

[@samd3676]

Hey Matt, I may have missed it but I didn't see a drip flashing over the windows?

[@eduardocarrillo1864]

Matt Matt Matt ... haha that killed me

[@TheNando1]

What’s the skateboarding guy’s name?

[@FlavioRicardoDesign]

I've miss the video #9 from this playlist

[@tomkelly9892]

New guy looks like he is improving well. That’s great!!! Good job! 👍👍

[@edashton1662]

Why the angles on each end of battens ?

[@zacheagle3018]

Nice job I don’t see many board and bat siding jobs in NC but I like it looks great !!

[@bigiron5508]

Come on he looks like Tommy lee... I can't be the only one..lol

[@MattBangsWood]

Everyone else says Steven Tyler!

[@bigiron5508]

@@MattBangsWood Haha, I guess so now that you mentioned that.. love your videos, retired ironworker here, keep up the good work.

[@dennismartin-y4t]

Do you put flashing above the windows?

[@johngee4688]

🤘🏼

[@tylerstrong7134]

I love Blaze Pizzas! Best I've ever had!!

[@davidkettell1073]

what an ugly ass building looks like my backyard shed.

[@barnacmongars]

God you still have good weather in California, When in Québec we had some day instaling stellrofing at -9 degres celcius. What kind of siding do you install? I never had seen this king of siding Cheers from Canada

[@HcFateFan]

James Hardie Siding

[@billybastar4022]

No tape around the window flanges? Gulp

[@dantolen3969]

I usually shave down those corners that stick out on windows with a knife. It makes the window trim look much cleaner. Great content.

[@alexuslawns]

What are your Batts made of? It's not fiber cement

[@alihaidari2453]

what is the siding material you are using this is great

[@wskaik1]

I love the guy picking his nose at 14:39. Real funny, LOL I'm getting to install this in my house and have to also replace the windows at the same time. I am having trouble figuring out what type window (frame) I need to install si it can play well with the siding system. Any light you can shed or some close up pictures you can provide? I love your teams work and thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@tylerstaley3168]

matt fox must be a true legend. skate or die for life. f*ck around with some pump jacks mattbangswoodski!

[@sergioduran8948]

What kind of wood are you using for the siding. Thanks

[@MattBangsWood]

James Hardie Smooth 4x8 4x9 and 4x10' sheets. Advantage Plus battens and corner trim.

[@sergioduran8948]

Thank you

[@jerrywilder9403]

No flashing over window ?

[@trentoffereins4771]

I’m looking at doing this on my place. Do you worry about drip cap around your window trim or only on trim boards between panels? I notice you trim on top of your smooth board. I also have 1 inch exterior insulation on. Any recommendations on fasteners? I put on an addition on an older place so my exterior studs are all over the place. Do you worry about not hitting every stud for your panels? Thanks for the help!

[@27Blur]

Quinten kinda looks and sounds like Preston Lacey from Jackass lol...not quite as beefy though lol

[@andrewthedisciple958]

Good to see a cat actually working instead of trying to sell the audience a tool

[@MattBangsWood]

I've got one or two partnerships, and they're subtle. Never been a fan of pushing product.. I make more getting the building up quicker!

[@Lee-xw9fr]

Hi Matt, I got into Carpentry and Framing after being forced to close my small business at the beginning of the pandemic. I'm really enjoying what I do now and recently got the opportunity to add bord and baton trim to a very swanky pool house in the northeast. I hate to sound like a kiss ass but your videos are an incredible help to a beginner so thanks for what you are doing!! Also, the tools situation is a nightmare for beginners If you have any advice on a brand to stick to for general Framing and Carpentry work that would be very very helpful. It's a minefield for a beginner so I would love to hear from a pro. Best, Lee.

[@supersalezovlogs5923]

Where can I get this house plan

[@josephmckay9046]

Its been a while since I've watched your video. I was really happy to see that Mr Quintero ( aka quinten) was still with you. I loved his response to the looking alive. Spat out my drink as I laughed. Keep up the great vids Matt

[@robertshields5541]

Matt looks like Steven Tyler lol

[@mars6433]

Glad what's his name is feeling better. See what I did there ?!!!

[@mrqcurly]

How do you seal the bottom of the vertical boards where they are attached to the bottom plate and the slab. It hangs about 2" past and sticks outs about 2"

[@brianherald5756]

No bottom Trim ??

[@pacificnwcarpenter5486]

Pro-tip put a reusable tape pad on your fat max they fit perfectly. have you ever used one? you can write on them and then just wipe it off. they are the best extra that I use and could never want to be on a job site without one. southern Carlson usally has them you could probably order them as well.

[@MattBangsWood]

I have had one! I love them. Unfortunately I replace tapes left and right, and don’t replace the pads. I need to!

[@ryderholywonder5864]

I just peel the fatmax sticker off. You can write your numbers directly on the plastic underneath and then wipe it off with your thumb. No need for anything else. Give it a try, I’ve been doing it for years.

[@sethhewett2171]

I appreciate seeing these videos. Not many ppl put out a good detail video on board and batten hardie. Good job. Even better crew hard to find good help anymore. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@hillbert0861]

Hardy? Should really have a mask on. That silica dust is no joke man.

[@MattBangsWood]

I made all of our saw cuts, 3M mask on

[@MattBangsWood]

You’re right! No joke at all.

[@alexlopez6660]

What a nice video. Thanks for helping Us out buddy.

[@Warren3carpentry]

Matt, What do you use for editing software also where do u get ur music? Thanks! Jamey

[@stevemills9129]

What is the flashing along the bottom of the panels where the sill and the concrete meet?

[@AngelMendez-gi8wv]

Would it be possible for you to do a step by step video on installing the siding if thats not too much to ask for

[@DanielTorres-ls3kt]

Can i get away without putting battens?? Or are the y a MUST??

[@mariomoreno6051]

Pro Job

[@SuperPowerWomen]

I love the videos and how you guys work but the scaffolding just looks sketch

[@MattBangsWood]

The scaffold was only up for a total of 2 days or so, so it tends to go up and quick and go down quicker.

[@MsElijah16]

That's exactly what I was thinking, scaf looks sketch

[@SuperPowerWomen]

@@MattBangsWood Yeah it looks different from our view point of course :P You need to do the job and time is money. I'm from the netherlands myself and the scaffolding here is always pretty secure :P

[@JoshuaR.Collins]

What about the staircase,

[@MattBangsWood]

They’ve got to jump! Jokes aside, we’ve had a temp set up until it’s painted. After that we put up the 4x8” stringers and it’ll be done!

[@JoshuaR.Collins]

@@MattBangsWood ah ok i would have thought you would put up the stringer that goes up against the house before the board and batten, as the batten would make the stringer sit slightly off the wall/

[@jonsmith9708]

Are you supposed to gap trim 3/16

[@thomasparrott2599]

What panels are you using?

[@AllreadyBooi]

Where’s your helper?? Screw getting off and on that scaffold to make your own cuts

[@MattBangsWood]

They started an hour after I did. We have some builds we start at 7:00, others are always 8:00.

[@miguelangelaguilera8811]

How much is the installation cost on lap siding?

[@LoweredLife14]

what materials you use for the exterior panel?

[@johnbravo7542]

you got absolutely no fear of heights

[@henrikbek8701]

wass afraid of there wass no smokes in the video :=) i had to wait for the end

[@ykciR]

Is your company the Gc or just frame sub contractor

[@JorgeSanchez-md1xc]

I haven't watched it but I have liked first to win some giveaways, and I watch it to learn with the professional,

[@chinodollaz1487]

What kind of wood did you skin it with?

[@Leo-ch9117]

Good job 👍

[@Sunde53]

no drip cap on the windows? we use 4 drip caps with end dams here to code.

[@MattBangsWood]

I typically do, builder didn’t want to.

[@snak_dog]

The whole crew, everyone’s name Matt😂

[@MattBangsWood]

We're either running from the law, or all of our parents sucked at naming us..

[@rodstiffingtonxyz]

the very last piece of sheating at 13:10 , how did you find the dimensions , is it as simple as measuring the high point and low point and snapping a line or is there a way to scribe it

[@MattBangsWood]

With nearly everything we do siding related, or shear panel related.. It's all off of a long and short point number! I don't scribe much unless it's repetitive cuts on the bottom or top of a sheet (1/12 pitch coming off the bottom or top of every sheet).

[@rodstiffingtonxyz]

@@MattBangsWood thanks for the reply man, it was like 12 o clock if your still doing doing that commute thats a rough night sleep.

[@utubewatcher360]

I could pick your video apart - but will not do that because all in all I think your doing a pretty good job. Your camera work is great, your explanation and tutorial works well - but the SMOKERS ????? not cool. I refuse to have second hand smoke on any of my jobs - that includes sub-contractors as well!!! NO ONE and I REPEAT NO ONE smokes on my jobs - Period!! you smoke your not hired, you smoke your FIRED!!! DISCUSTING!!! HABIT - I don't care how fast you are, precise and or friendly - smoking does not belong on these projects. I suppose your crew are also throwing the cigarette butts all over the owners property as well NO> 2 reason one does not smoke on my job, all cigarette smokers think they can just throw them anyplace they want. OK IM done- Matt your a very good carpenter however - you could work or run my job any day of the week , that is unless your a smoker

[@MattBangsWood]

Haven’t smoked a day in my life. My father and a few employees smoke, never inside a home that’s being lived in / remodeled. We’re strict about where the cigarette butts go, and I complain about them to Fox if I find them on the ground. When it comes to remodeling, or any interior work, we’re strict about no smoking on the property. The builder here, for instance, had employees pounding beers on the job first day we showed up.. It was a joke. We aren’t perfect, but we’re definitely well above the competition.

[@MattBangsWood]

My Dads a smoker, but runs a very tight knit operation. He’d chew someone’s ass if he found them on a build.

[@utubewatcher360]

@@MattBangsWood I am happy to hear that you do not smoke. I think that your doing a fantastic job and that you have great skills. Your really making a difference in the construction world. I am glad to see tradesman like you working in our industry. And especially that your taking the time to share it with the KZbin world. You handled my criticism like a pro Matt - thank you

[@utubewatcher360]

@John Stevens your probably a smoker, therefore I don't give a shit what you think
