[@teresajost5262]

this has to be the best one with jamie in charge!!!! i could listen to his explanations all day! he's so funny, yet he teaches at the same time!

[@oneheartfire]

I really enjoy Jamie's detailed explanations. He's a natural teacher.

[@tonygorton1874]

Agreed!

[@darkdelta]

Count me in also.

[@craigfritsinger7]

I definitely do too, but it seems like the rest of the crew is tired of it lol. He is hilarious too!

[@dielauwen]

Really ?

[@F3Ibane]

No joke, that "second hand" idea is genius. I really hope you shared that with the prosthetic team.

[@julieenslow5915]

But it was also funny! Genius + funny + functional = great product!

[@brendoncox9683]

Yeah, really good idea…. very handy!!!

[@iamjesper]

Dont forget "its gonna be revolutionary", just as a clock is

[@theyearwas1987]

Idk why but this is by far my favorite thing to watch on YT right now. I'm binge watching the hell out of this series haha

[@petertraversone689]

"The Second Hand™" might be the funniest Jamie joke he's had in a while

[@carolewarner101]

The famousest of all time!

[@michaelsparks6084]

Lol, good one!

[@killazftw]

I reciprocate

[@andrewbrown784]

Legit might be the best dad joke I've ever heard.

[@jackheilmann3739]

What kind of maturrraal is that second hand made of? 🤪

[@LH-vy8fe]

Can we please get a "bonus video" of Jaime explaining how his bionic hand works? It looks like it does a great job for him and I'd love to learn more about it.

[@lethargicmotorsport2025]

I agree

[@DictatorAtWill]

We need a side-channel that's just unabridged monologues by Jaime.

[@briannielsen769]

Yea please!

[@TheBgrugbymatt]

100%

[@milesharlan1]

The Jamie rambling channel... Nice. I would watch it.

[@shelbyball8564]

I totally agree, I soak up the Jamie content! I’m also a custom home builder, less than five homes built. Jamie‘s content is gold!

[@chrismoore9997]

I would watch... Be sure to include his jokes.

[@mylesburley7251]

I found the chapters in kzbin.infoUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU to be very relevant to my project as I embarked on building my first ever structure from the ground up. I especially found this Ryan’s Shed Plans to be of great use when it came to building the roof. I was able to do all the cuts and installation by myself, with a little reference to this Ryan’s Shed Plans.

[@j.peaceo1031]

You guys have perfected the balance between goofiness and informativeness.

[@LDeezy662]

The funny thing about Jaime is everybody on the crew thinks his explanations are a joke but jokes on y'all 😎 because those explanations are the reason most of us enjoy this channel

[@robinimpey101]

Can't wait for some detailed explanations about stairs from Jamie! 😄

[@robinimpey101]

And of course I wasn't disappointed! I feel like going out and getting some muhterials and building some stairs!

[@watermouse9296]

Jaimie is on FIRE these last 2 episodes! (New to channel, just finished up moutain cabin, now watching this series) So so great. love the whole crew!

[@mindi.m]

I understood exactly what Jamie was explaining. Thanks for not fast forwarding him this time. Speaking of time: second hand! 😆

[@btbenedi]

I'm always so sad when the video ends, need more Perkins

[@spicynomad]

i know, they need to be longer, right.

[@joemizer]

I liked the last house they did, videos all the time. (farmhouse)

[@lionheadhomes4566]

Jamie's "Second Hand" Channel. It's got a nice ring to it.

[@poly1973ful]

Many different designs for each type of project are also included. For example, there are hundreds of designs kzbin.infoUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu for outdoor buildings, from small sheds all the way up to a complete stable. Choose whatever type of shed or storage house is right for you. Pick from fancy ones or more utilitarian designs.

[@jefff6167]

The quality of your content rivals This Old House, really. You do what TOH does with multiple TV production cameras, mics and crew with iPhones. Amazing. Thanks for taking the time, much appreciated

[@petertraversone689]

Only Jamie could make a 13 minute video on stair overview.

[@Jaeger04]

I’m still astonished by how quick North Americans build houses. Btw, you guys do an amazing job

[@PaulMcGuinness]

No bricks, no pilings, no tiles, less restrictions.... which is why houses in the UK withstand a strong breeze ;-)

[@Jaeger04]

@@PaulMcGuinness Couldn’t agree more. Btw, I’m from Dorset ;-)

[@PaulMcGuinness]

@RAH Capital wow... Clearly you've never heard of humour....

[@ohcrapwhatsnext]

Jamie, i have to hand it to you. You really finger things out and make it all happen. You can knuckle through most issues... The pro finger tips really nail it home....

[@JLuckBlog]

Jaime that was a excellent ideal on the second hand watch You guy's do excellent work. I go back and watch PBB videos over and over again. Just that good.👍

[@waynep3040]

Working hard and having a good time with your coworkers makes everyones job enjoyable Look forward to what you are doing and learning from how you do it

[@BBKConstruction]

Jaime is the best explainer of why you build stuff that way you build it. It’s so entertaining and thorough! Side note: Does Jaime realize you have battery nailers? Him and his pneumatic nailers!!!!

[@rhondakennedy819]

2nd hand is actually a great idea! Pitch it!!! Be kind to one another. Stay safe. Love to all

[@carpnotes4607]

Yo Jamie's stair building tips are spot on. If Perkins Bros want to let Jamie pontificate about anything and everything building - please let him; dat boy knows what he's talking about!

[@HC-ji9oe]

James is definitely the "stare-guy". ❤️

[@poochielepew498]

I really appreciate the videos and I think what all the comments are trying to say is that, We all love you Mr. Jaime You're the best

[@sliceof_toast]

You learn so much with its just Jamie , all the little details and differences it makes to try and do something that will make the job easier and more solid 💪

[@T.E.P..]

Hello from August 2023 .... the vids are always a great time rewatching

[@rossdalfreys8883]

The “HAND” of time!

[@Dayinthelifeofawiener]

I like it when Jaime is in control!! I want to learn!!

[@DDL2728]

Ok, the stairs take incredible knowledge, but "The Second Hand" - that was brilliant 👏 Great idea 🥰

[@cameronbouchard8265]

We like Jamie’s details we are here to be entertained but also here to learn

[@uriahmaney6585]

A step above all else! Good information on how to build stairs. Second hand! Cool concept!

[@аралтанманджиев-п2ж]

"It is going to be revolutionally". Another awsome print for a T-shirt.

[@BobJonesSL]

Revolutionary?!? Awesome!!!

[@kevinmuzikar2037]

Definitely a step above the rest. Another good one.

[@ogoriginalghost7340]

Great job … can you do longer videos , love watching you explain the process.

[@beachboardfan9544]

Thumbs up for the second hand promo at the end!

[@fintan3563]

I am so amazed when I see Jamie use his left hand! Modern technology is amazing! 20-30 years from now that prosthetic hand will probably be much more capable of doing things with a lifelike skin covering.

[@Beandiptheredneck]

I actually did try to slow down Jamie's talk one day. It didn't work 😕 I actually like to hear him talk. He's a smart guy with a lot of knowledge to share

[@chchchscott1]

“The 2nd hand” genius 👍🏻

[@rivercity1396]

I watched at 25% speed on one of the videos and it worked perfect

[@DCS026]

Jaime is stair building beast!

[@g-mabetty3088]

This is one video to keep. Easy to understand.

[@Daboombatz]

Stairs are tricky and you nailed it!

[@fredinalaska]

"the second hand" frickin awesome

[@adamgadowski2881]

One of the best series on youtube atm 👌🤙

[@nachtmar378]

the second hand :-) good to see Jamie doing great with the prosthetic

[@anthonyspicer874]

Yep I would love to work with these builders and soak up all of their knowledge I could... They all have good minds in the carpentry world.....

[@simondelves]

Thanks James for the "quick explanation"..... But, a third of the video!!??? 😉

[@cmansfielduk]

The Second Hand! Love it!

[@andrewlisabeth2960]

I know it's an old video but the "second hand" joke made me laugh. It's both funny and a genius idea.

[@Doobydoo916]

Jamie is so informative I really do enjoy learning from him....all the way from Fiji! God bless guys

[@MrTootster]

You guys are great edutainment!!! Keep up the great work!

[@tylermundy7985]

I lol'd at the "second hand" joke. Good stuff.

[@ronwhite36]

The second hand! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@favasconcelos]

Just imagine a series like this on Netflix... man... there is no better casting whatsoever!

[@bobketterer9119]

“Second Hand” thanks, I needed that laugh.

[@mudlife318]

I wonder if he got that prosthetic new or Second hand? lol

[@carolewarner101]

@@mudlife318 OMG, Jamie's gonna LOVE that one!!! 😂😂😂

Love the Second Hand episode!

The second hand. That’s awesome!

"the second hand" .... i actually didnt see that one coming. good one jaime!

[@MrBigguy1972]

The second hand idea was awesome. 😂

[@RW-to2fy]

Jamie I know this was a old video but that joke about the watch and name it the second hand was the best

[@MyDIYAdventures]

Great job explaining the stairs!👍👍👍

[@passg1920]

*Seriously* one of the best episodes ever. Good and detailed information, great jokes, great editing, the whole pack. Beautiful.

[@lloydwilliams8715]

Good afternoon Perkins Builder's and crew. Thanks for another interesting video. Checking in from Jamaica 🇯🇲🙏

[@jerushafoshee4000]

The second hand - love it

[@stevennopey5069]

You guys are cool. I like what you do and your attitude is infectious. Keep it up.

[@robstephens]

Need a thin flexible magnet in the wrist strap to hold screw bits, etc.

[@יותםגבעון]

Jamie gone wild! "The second hand" is just genius 😂

[@l.a.estrada9678]

Ok, Jaime is my favorite. ❤ He's a genius and the man can talk. Don't get me wrong, when he's on a tangent, my mind starts to wonder. But he's got those boyish good looks that lets him get through that. He's gonna be that old man telling stories whether they are right or wrong, telling crazy stories to kids, but he will always be the man who knows his sh*t. Ray is another favorite. He's that quiet genius that will answer only if asked. He doesnr need to show off or be in the limelight. His quick wit is hilarious. And we can't forget Arlo. That man can still have fun with the boys but his work ethic is excellent. His knowledge and experience should really be utlized more but he lets the bosses run the job. Love seeing all you guys. Its really exciting to see the end result. Thank you😊

[@jonabdo4796]

Great explanation for figuring height of stairs.

[@bertlane5214]

Dude that awesome!! Second Hand!!! Love that idea!

[@allenjamesleblanc7725]

I love your work guys. I look forward to see you guys work weekly.

[@mikebrown7324]

Would love a Jamie deep dive into these stairs. I'm planning the same style in my new house.

[@carolewarner101]

Me too, but even with his short explanation I feel pretty confident I could create an accurate story pole and build a good set of stairs. Funny how the rest of the guys tease him so ruthlessly about being such a teacher. Maybe they feel threatened by it, like he's doing it for their sake and they don't need it? Who knows, but as a viewer I sure as hell appreciate it! Maybe if we encourage him enough he'll create his own channel and maybe business with content teaching top notch building details and techniques. I'd subscribe to it. I've got a house to build starting this next spring!

[@b-2466]

This work has always amazed me. I love the idea of building something from ground up so to speak. These guys are fun to watch. I'd like to do more work like this myself someday.

[@milesharlan1]

Thank You Thank You..Love the details for building the stairs by Jaime. I think you guys should do PBB more detail video on stair building.. It could be even possible more than one video. I think there could be a very good teaching moment by PBB.. Thank you Erik for your video editing & you guys keep up the good work.

[@lavidanormalderay3296]

Yup I learned a lot thanks Jamie.

[@donovandavidsonAlton]

Jamie is a star

Love the second hand joke. Perfect “timing”

[@kristinaostrolucanin3249]

Jamie, you are really awesome guy!!! 😎🥰 I enjoyed listening your explanations. You would be very good mentor/teacher, and you have great spirit! 😊

[@dustincleckler9806]

Great video, would love to see some woodworking videos from Jamie’s shop or a new shop tour video since the paint and change up of the shop during the farmhouse build.

[@surebrah]

The block check made it make sense.

[@sabelosibiya8293]

🇿🇦🇿🇦 you guys make it look easy to do

[@kokweing9469]

i like the way you work and have your fun

[@Jordan-kk5xj]

How are the joists secured? Are they just toenailed to that back plate (ledger board thingy)? Or are joist hangers used also? Obviously I have no clue, just curious.

[@jimhassanariano3317]

That’s a great idea jamie!! 🤛⏱

[@MaggieGueder]

Jaime is looking great 😍 also, great information (I'm implementing everything I've learn on this chanel)

[@regularguy9264]

Excellent detail with the blocking. I have come across that problem often in stringers, especially exterior. In fact, for exterior stairs, I no longer cut the stringers, but instead attach Simpson stair tread supports where the cuts would have been, and then attach the full treads to that. If you do wind up being off on heights, at least it was the top step which should not result in a tripping hazard.

[@joemizer]

That joke was awesome. Perfect

[@jaedanb]

The second hand is genius

[@lillykesteven1348]

You guys really do a great job. So refreshing to see people take pride in their work.
