I'm glad to see a professional using molding in other ways than the way it was designed. I have picked up moldings in home centers and mentioned what I was using them for and was told that they were not meant to be used for that. Well, I bought it and I can use it how I see fit. Your fireplace is looking awesome.
@thedumbassspeaks11 ай бұрын
Technically, the way he used the picture hanging molding makes it an edge bead molding . I made a “crental” mold to trim out my kitchen, which is a dental molding turned 180 degrees so the openings face upwards and look like the crenellations on a castle wall.

I enjoy your ability to describe simply how you think through your process and how in so doing you have a very confident but humble manner about it. Too many guys I’ve encountered in the field just can’t teach, don’t know how to or want to teach and are overly arrogant and expect everyone to understand their way as if it’s on a stone tablet from mt Sinai. Nobody knows it all, but you sir know more than a group put together and are very down to earth about the whole thing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills

Love that you’re doing it as you like it. I’ve always disliked hearing people say you can’t do it like that because it’s incorrect, like using picture moulding as a cap. Looks great

Damn Richard. You have come such a long way. When I first started watching your channel years ago. Tbh I thought you didn’t know what you were doing. To be transparent. It was the mdf. I thought anybody can make mdf look decent for the moment. But I’ve watched you evolve and you are doing exactly what I want to be doing and elevating into a real woodworker and I am fortunate at least to be able to live vicariously through you. You are living my dream bubba. Just so you know. You keep me motivated and prove to me that if you keep your head down and do the right thing. Eventually good things will happen for you. I hope one day I get to step up my game to the level that you have. Your evolution has amazed me and I have mad respect for how far you have came as a woodworker. I’ll be honest. I used to think I was either as good if not better than you as a carpenter. I’ll be the first to admit. I couldn’t even hold your hammer anymore. You are killing the game and I love to see it happen for you because I know it is your love and I know how passionate you are and I am so happy for you to see you to be able to make your dreams reality.

Enjoyed the video Richard. That was allot of layout for your mantel. It is really looking good and very creative. I have to mention. Where's your guard for your jointer? At least slide the fence over to cover most of the unused blades. You need to check out Perkins jointer accident if you haven't already. You be safe and God bless.

Since you decided to trim screw them in, I would recommend that you use a 1/4" forstner bit to make a shallow hole for your trim screws to set into and then use a 1/4" dowel to plug the holes for a cleaner finish.
