The noggin stick is a fantastic trick! Just the clean look at the end. Also, i owe you a coffee..... I put the extra row of noggins in for the kitchen units etc like you mentioned and the kitchen fitter gave me a tenner to buy myself a cup of tea. Haha! I told him and his crew about your channel too..

Noggin stick great idea, like having a third hand. I put mine in a straight line also. I noticed you put dcp under the frame but didn't notice it along the wall. I know it's extra material but a lot of times I make the stud wall up on the floor and then stand it in on top of the 4x2 fixed to the floor and wall. Gives extra material to fix skirting boards and plater boards to later
@thetallcarpenter3 жыл бұрын
Hi Dan. Building control odes not ask for the DPC to be behind the studs that go against any masonry walls🙄 I tend to cut each stud individually, as the floor is never parallel to the ceiling, and I will sometimes put a double or even triple floor plate down, but it just depends on what the builder/customer wants🤔Thanks again for watching my videos🤩Cheers Del

How far apart is your trusses or some people say bottom Chords how far is the distance between one to the other I am wondering because I have a garage that’s converted into a house and they have a drop ceiling on it and my trusses are 48 inches apart and I want to hang drywall from them. so I think I need to put a brand new 26 foot long wood 2x6x26 board in

Del we use to nogg out cieling then gyp rock cieling then put stud work up what do you think off that method
@thetallcarpenter5 ай бұрын
Hi JP🖐I/we also used to do it like that, as it was much quicker to tack the ceiling AND you didn't have to put noggins in everywhere to support the plasterboard/fix the head plates to. We stopped doing that way for a few reasons which were. We started to see cracks along the board joints, especially on bigger ceilings, so tacking after the walls went in broke the ceiling up into smaller sections. On low pitched roofs, it made it a really awful job for the sparkies to 1st fix, especially getting wires down to the outer walls, and finally, the tackers didn't have to make a separate visit to site just to do the ceiling, they just came and did the walls, ceilings and dot and dabbing all in one go👍 I'm not saying I wouldn't do it this way anymore, just would have to be the right job😎Cheers Del

Question looks like there is no outside sheathing on the walls. No wood just cement blocks. Why is that? Is that just to save money? I’m just wondering why there’s no sheathing I know that’s supposed to be structure support. Is that why you put in the Noggins the wood between the studs?

Do you guys ever use powder actuated tools such as the Hiltis and Ramsets? I sometimes like to pin my bottom plate to the slab with one and then go back and fix it down with concrete screws. I find it a little easier especially when using 16-20 foot lengths of treated lumber as they are rarely straight.

Hi Mark. I'm not a fan of concrete screws/fixings for fixing timber to blockwork or concrete as I find I cant get them to pull the timber tight to the block/concrete surface without drilling a secondary clearance hole in the timber. I find plugs and screws a more adaptable fixing method. (maybe I'm also a little set in my ways). Thanks for watching and you comment.😎 Cheers.

Hi Adam. This was amongst the first of my video making attempts and I really should have explained how and why I do things better than I did.😬 I put each stud in position on the sole plate and then up past the mark on the head plate, and run my pencil across at that point. This makes each stud exactly the right length with no measuring at all. I have done a more recent video where you can see me doing this marking.😎 Thanks for your comment and for watching.

Your doin a great job but I think you should at least try making frames up. It is the certainly the faster method in my opinion. Anyone that is fast using your method will be even faster after 4 or 5 houses of framing. Every stick you cut is individual rather than stacking together and zipping either a wall off at a time or if the ceiling height is constant cut the lot to the tightets height as a pack on some stools. You can leave your hop up in the van for a while rather than constantly being up and down on it too as ceiling nogs are done after walls are up using your uprights to set the centres. I do however love the chamfers on the nog stick....in 35 years I have never seen that before.
@thetallcarpenter3 жыл бұрын
Hi Steve. Cutting all the studs the same length simply doesn't work when the floor is rough cast, oversite concrete that can vary by an inch or more. If I'm timber framing/stick building off a level, flat floor, then, yes, it's much quicker to cut all the studs the same. I have other videos showing this method👊 Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and for watching 😎 Cheers Del
