DIY Husband Tries Expensive Finish Carpentry | Makes $1,000 A Day | THE HANDYMAN |

[@Mike-dy8bq]

NIce work. I think that a 1x8 head casing cut to size, would have been a better choice so that it lined up with the other casing next to it.

[@Ninja47Monkey]

I thought so too, I'm a carpenter and like to start with the top piece of trim first, I think its then easier to line up the sides

[@christopherprim1973]

This was going to be my comment. Or asking why he didn't care about getting them the same height. Maybe us guys notice it way more than most people. IDK. Just the end of the hallway door was short, right? The adjacent one and the pocket were both a little higher.

[@navarrodragon25]

yep@@Ninja47Monkey

[@angelicarobles4254]

This, quality of the work is great, but that would annoy the hell out of me being different heights.

[@stevenjones1614]

Why did you not make the trim line up on top in the hall?

[@TheHandyman1]

Different size doors.

[@mistsemy1522]

I was thinking the same thing

[@stevenjones1614]

A wider piece on top would have worked. With the two other doors butted to the pocket door in the corner, it stands out. Great job otherwise.

[@Control-Freak]

@@TheHandyman1 You could just make the door too in a custom size, of course your 1K in a day might drop a bit. I like hand tool work and like do things I have never done, like make a window or a door. I don't have to make a living at it and usually give the work to a neighbor. Nice work.

[@edwardcomiskey6556]

Oh that dewalt whine.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

I stand corrected. There are some good DIY husbands lol. Nice work!

[@jackheinemann1994]

Really nice job mate, my grandfather built spec homes back in the day and they were all done just like this, natural finish on all the door ways and skirts etc, I can smell the timber in my pops house too watching this.

[@woody1380]

Has to be the handles. I'm guessing inset handles so they don't foul the slider and the risky bit is drilling the recess for the handle.... maybe 🤔

[@fmradio42]

Thats one to be proud of that's for sure, what about felt bumpers. 8:23 look out.

[@hopebear06]

My grandfather made everything for his home old school style. The interior doors all rolled back into a recess then he built a simple cord over a pulley system with a perfectly weighted piece of turned brass inside the opposite recess. The doors all work perfectly for over 45 years. Slow, silent and smooth. Gotta love perfect work.

[@jebmurphy]

Made it. Thanks. You helped me turn my son in law into a handyman. Perfect fit for him. He’s rocking it in Ft Myers

[@TheHandyman1]

I spent a lot time on Ft Myers beach. Is he getting work putting it back together after the hurricane?

[@jebmurphy]

@@TheHandyman1 A little everything. He presents well, smart, natural problem solver, polite soft spoken, with real integrity, and he gets referrals from old lady’s with money. A few neighborhood blocks from McGregor. Second grandkid one the way, so he must feel secure in the path! Thank you for the great content! Yours was the first channel I pointed him to when he needed a career change. I followed you because I did some property management as an agent side gig and got my son in on the maintenance side at the Office. When he was 23, we threw his college money ($12k) into a 1938 former termite infested crackhouse and 5 years later - crushing it - owns a fruit tree nursery homestead, married, 2 sons! Blessed! The simplified advice I gave my son and son-in-law is, that no one knows how to fix anything. In Florida, people have money! A Good Handyman’s dream!

[@Renniz72]

I made it. You made it. Nice seeing trim with a natural finish and not paint.

[@timothyfechter5977]

Love the use of scrap as a strait edge , been there 😂

[@christianrobinson4526]

That looks so good, it's like it was made by a professional handyman or something!

[@lewisland3695]

no latch or handle to grab when it is recessed in it's pocket? Really nice install, it looks great!

[@hfdny37]

Looks beautiful! Natural wood trim always scares me. Always the last nail makes a u turn.

[@mmpatriot2170]

Made it to the end. I’ve learned so much from you Handyman. The caulk gun t-shirt is my work uniform. 😁

[@andyprairiedog]

Made it to the end. Great work and attention to detail. Your work is always fun to watch. I still run around with an air hose following me through out the house/project.

[@TheHandyman1]

Thank you!

[@msven]

I presume the title is a joke on Finish Carpentry TV's recent video?

[@JB-ez2jz]

The top trim line wld drive me nuts but looks good

[@TheHandyman1]

The bill for me to buy a bigger board would hurt even more.

[@JB-ez2jz]

@@TheHandyman1 no need to explain, it was never a shot at you. I figured it came down to price. I’ve been subscribed long enough to know your skill level!

[@vicf6509]

Is the title of this video referencing the title of another channel's video. Interesting that two different videos over two days have similar titles 😂🤔.

[@darren8484]

Very nice work Handy! Maybe someday I can be like you!

[@CarstenDittrich2014]

Great and beautiful work. Good job - I enjoyed watching it all. A word of caution/worry for your safety. Very few first seconds you made a cut on your tablesaw with the miter gauge - and it looked like you used the fence for distance? if so - you risk the piece to bind and kick back. For your own sake - never use the miter gauge together with the fence - fingers x-ed 🙂

[@KableGuyCGY]

Made it! Looks great Handy

[@sbraudrick]

Made it to the end.... I think you dropped a gauntlet there somewhere 🤣

[@HomeRapidRepair]

Nice job as always 👍🏼👍🏼

[@carloscastillojr9507]

I’m watching you thinking, “ that’s it. Take your time to do it right and use good material.” 👍🏼. It’s not about how fast you can do it. And there’s no Forman breathing down your neck. I find myself rushing through everything that I do and your good work inspires me to get it together! 😆

[@louisghd09]

Hey I just seen a finish carpenter youtuber saying no DIY Husband can do such a thing! 😂

[@keithf5236]

Me too, was wondering if this title was a tiny jab at that :)

[@louisghd09]

​@@keithf5236😂

[@dragonhero14]

Good work. I did watch until the end. ;)

[@joshuam.6404]

My OCD wants the header casing on both doors to be in line with each other but there’s probably a reason that’s not feasible this time

[@royortiz150]

That head casing not lining up would drive me crazy, all the other ones line up perfect

[@richardlewis8393]

Great work my man!! Love the channels and all the informative content you share

[@aab-el9bd]

what is handyman third channel?

[@BamaBreeze]

Like the show handy. Left me speechless. HandyOn brother.

[@dilliansoddsandends809]

Just wondering why the top of the pocket door was not at the same level as the other doors in the hallway... Think it would have looked better

[@jeffp6014]

Your install is a work of art. I wondered if theres something more aesthetic instead of plastic guides at the bottom. At first I thought they should have been extending inside of the slot instead of sticking out in traffic but your close up looks like it’s is the design.

[@navarrodragon25]

they have a guide you could install that is recessed just beyond the edge of the door... it is a single blade that runs inside a notch in the bottom of the door. it gets screwed to the floor in the wall cavity and if not installed prior to drywall it would be tricky to do but could still be done with 90 degree drill adapters and extensions and such. the guide is called is called a T floor guide and doesn't mar up the bottom of the door that you can see.

[@jpfath]

Made it to the end! Nice work! Really fascinating project.

[@dianecharest8365]

Wow! Beautiful job. Lucky wife she is.

[@Henry-r2r]

how do you pull the door out? no handle to grip on it.

Beautiful wood and the trim work, nice👍🏻

[@jimc.964]

Wow! Made it to the end… always!

[@natee8140]

Very nice, I have never had a pocket door. It dose not appear to have a lot of room to put your fingers in, so do you open it?

[@mechanicalcanvas]

Pull latches are installed that either pop out or tilt out that allow you to pull the door outwards until you can get to the finger handle

[@BATEDOGG]

How come the top left of the trim is flush but not the top left? Just wondering

[@BATEDOGG]

Sorry top right

[@tman6663]

Beautiful👌…you’ve destroyed my skills, as always..by just cutting on your table saw! Luv the speed up, this maybe ..would take me 2 days to complete 🤔 lol

[@user-yb9pb8rf8x]

Looks great. Which battery operated dewalt gun is that as far as gauge? Thanks again

[@runamonk]

Just think how much more awesome that would look if you were actually a carpenter rather than a Handyman. ;) Excellent job man.

[@deannawoody9621]

Your work is amazing ❤❤❤❤💯💯💯💯

[@zer05tar]

I'm going with puddy nail holes. If you mess it up? Sanding? lol Nice job handyman. My handyman business is going gangbusters, you and a couple others to thank. Keep it up! #1776

[@JB-ez2jz]

Ohhh tell us more! I’m a Union carpenter and old general remodeler dying to take the leap and start up my own thing but so nervous and no idea where to start! Even if I did it on off hours at first I don’t know where to start. Any forums or groups you guys recommend?!?

[@huejanus5505]

I think it’s installing the pulls and latches. You don’t putty finished wood, you use color matched wax fillers.

[@stevedana2178]

Put a piece of tape down before u nail then puddy the hole then take off the tape. It’ll look like it was never there 👍

[@stevedana2178]

They have color match putty as well.

[@dennisleblanc7933]

I made it to the end, great job!

[@jdshear01]

I made it to the end! Looks sharp - I love the natural wood grain! What size is your finish nailer? I've seen so much conflicting information on what is better, a 15-guage or 16-guage nailer for door installation and finish trim. I went with 16-guage only because it seemed more common than 15 but that doesn't mean I was right.

[@huejanus5505]

There isn’t a right or wrong. A 15 gauge is slightly stronger and leaves a slightly larger hole. I opted for 15 gauge because i prefer angled nailers for awkward spots. Some people say 15 gauge is too big for finish work, but i’ve pulled out some real harpoons on older finished work on some renos that looked fine installed.

[@kennyrussell6833]

15 is better

[@feralbeliever4248]

I'm just like Pavlov's dog...as soon as I saw the pocket door, I yelled, "BALLZ!!!!!"
