How to Install Raised Panel Wainscot - Professional

[@rogerf3622]

I put a TV above the mantle too when I had kids BUT…putting aesthetics and customs aside, there are two issues I found. First looking up and watching TV will give you a neck ache. Second, the heat from the fireplace rises and makes the TV run so much hotter, even with a sealed fireplace. The solution to the neck issue is reclining chairs (or the excuse to buy them).

[@donwilliams3626]

This mantle is turning out to be quite a distinctive feature. I really like your choice of the pencil molding on the front corner. It adds a nice touch others seldom think to use.

[@woodyourather7835]

I also like the pencil molding for the corner, it will be interesting to see what transition you do for the baseboard. Also, since you used solid wood for the panels, they will expand when summer comes in Texas, so that tight fit may crack your frame joints, or bow the panel itself. I suggest leaving expansion room just like the doors you made.

[@vanoknt]

beautiful job! an design! just my simple man opinion, you should rout out the family initial on the middle panels on both sided of fire place! or you business name, to keep the legend going for grandchildren and so on...

[@ccwnyc5671]

The kids and dog hanging around the fireplace was epic. 😊

[@isaiahii6982]

I can't wait to see it finished. I'm currently doing a full kitchen remodel and today I did some trim above the upper cabinets that turned out looking so good that it made me want to keep working through the night. So I know what you mean when you say how seeing something come together motivates you to want to keep going.

[@clintprice2123]

What satisfaction you must get every time you walk into your house!

[@mandyleeson1]

You’ve come such a long way in the four years I’ve been watching your videos, Richard. It’s great to see.

[@markhopkins7204]

Trim carpentry is truly an art form..your meticulous attention to detail sets a lofty standard, and you're KILLING IT! Outstanding results-can't wait to see final product..thanks for sharing!

[@sparklander]

I really enjoy watching and learning. Our fireplace mantle is so basic, not even any wood trim. The nice too!s really help during the process. Thank you for taking the time to bring us along. You seem to bring a measure of excellence and craftsmanship to your designs, which I love. Thank you for staying humble.

[@moneymakingmikeg.9555]

[@AB-nu5we]

Love the look. Great when things come together after all the prep work and planning.

[@robertmawby3021]

You are so right in what you say about the more you add to panelling, the more the satisfaction grows. Great videos Richard, greetings from the UK !!!

[@Snowmannorth]

I am confident you found your calling, Rich! Looks great - can’t wait to see the finished fireplace!

[@samsiryani9023]

Your better off putting a nice painting or a family portrait especially with your beautiful family, just an opinion instead of a tv but again your house and your choice to do what make you happy. Great work sir.

[@AB_in_CO]

Looking forward to all the videos in this series. Not only am I learning a lot, but I'm enjoying it too. Also it's really nice to see your kids showing interest in what you are doing!

[@eganpete]

The work you do is awesome. I’ve been a long time lurker. Plus, and I mean plus… you seem like a nice guy!

[@chrismcgee3751]

I look forward to these videos. They’re educational and entertaining. I bought your ca glue and I put that stuff on everything. The boss even complimented my miters this week. Thanks for being an internet mentor!

[@FB-111A]

I have the Samsung Frame TV 55”. I use it primarily for art. Absolutely love it. Anxious to see your finished product.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

Nice! Yeah can’t wait to see everything in place!

[@powderdescent]

We just picked up the same TV, same size at Costco. Was surprised to see it already back up to $1500 again today. Black Friday deal FTW!

[@georgedoganis6708]

Hi Richard I enjoyed your video and I always have something to learn from you ,may God keep you going ,you and your family ,and the four legged joy ,because you love your work I have no doubt that it will come out amazing

[@benjodoin1797]

I love how excited you are about your own work. It shows how much you enjoy what you do as well as how passionate you are as a craftsman. You inspire a lot of my projects. Keep up the good work!

[@andrewbrown8148]

Beautiful work, Richard~! (as always) I always learn so much from your videos. Ready for the next segment.

[@curtisblair7618]

Nice work Richard. You are very talented and have become better each year 👏

[@BackyardBoysTV]

You are a true role model thank you for sharing your work for people to learn from

[@mattk7827]

I’ve been watching your channel for a few years now and always enjoyed your attention to detail and skill! But the past few weeks I’ve been having a desire to learn to do some of these things myself. The first channel I thought of was yours. Well done on this latest project! Keep up the excellent work!

[@rbproductions78]

I've really loved watching your skill and confidence grow over the years Richard, you are one talented dude!

[@garyhenderson9303]

Looks awesome, cant wait to see the finished result.

[@imdking01]

"The grip is just so awkward. It's terrible. I'm sorry. I can't see myself owning this...." (in my Patrick from SpongeBob voice). 😎 4 years later.... Look at him go! Right hand OR left hand. He's not even thinking about it. I couldn't resist, Richard. 😂 That SCM combination machine is incredible. I want one. Cheers!

[@Kernowwoods]

Really enjoying this series dude. Seeing the thought processes and the little details is fascinating. Thanks dude 🤙

[@jasonwoodring9977]

Man I am loving this series. Great work!

[@THE-THATCH]

Beautiful mate, I like the way you explained that it's not a TV room, but the frame TV you have ordered will be an art form, that's the beauty of Samsung Smart tv's, you can have changeable HD art. So many people have their TV's hung high on the wall to watch TV, it's such an uncomfortable viewing position.

[@5150Magic]

Very interested to see your choice of chair rail. Gonna make that really complete with that substantial base moulding.

[@jonathanbruno8206]

Looking good can’t wait to see the next video on what you do around the fireplace

[@michaelbashaw2906]

This video got me, can’t wait to see the rest of this series. You’re calling is not just carpentry work… You might consider keeping a schedule for video releases.

[@suavesmithy]

You’ll get there , I bought a old Victorian house years ago its took years but every room has been finished now , great channel, Liverpool , England

[@detroitdiy]

Looking good Richard, can't wait to see what's next.

[@ecarrillo71]

I love watching your videos Richard, you're so inspiring! I love the progress and can't wait for your next video.

[@shawnwood9875]

Your house is pretty now. You have a nice family and a skilled craft.

[@TobyChin]

Your work is absolutely incredible. It's been really fun to watch the transformation and elevation of your work over the last three or four years I've been following your channel. Great job with your channel and great job on your carpentry. Keep up the good work!

[@MrJohnnyboyrebel]

I have been trying to figure out how I can cover one of those cast stone fireplaces that were so popular 20 years ago. Watching your videos makes me think I’m in a master class of trim carpentry. My biggest take away on this one is to gather up a bunch of trim samples to experiment with the layering. Thank you for making your house, and mine, so beautiful.

[@Ameldur]

Looks beautiful, well done. What I never understood is why it's so common in American homes to put the TV above a mantle, it's too high in my opinion and you'll always be looking slightly up.

[@Carl-LaFong1618]

Coming along nicely.

[@sblack48]

The problem I see here is that it will be like proverbial polishing one shoe. The fireplace/mantle will be so spectacular that the rest of the room will look like it lacks ornamentation so you will have deck it out with goodies. But then that room will be out of balanced with the other rooms so you will start decking them all out but half way through (i.e. in 4 years) your wife will decide she wants a different house….

[@kevinlucas8437]

Love millwork !!! It's what makes the home pop !!! Can't wait for the next process.

[@donaldpyles2891]

Top of the class craftsman. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and inspiration.

[@HeyMichaelLeo]

Your Artistic side is shining through now, you got me feeling anxious to see the next step for sure.

[@Maxkil]

Its going to turn out real nice!

[@mteske1]

I live in an old house. It never ends. I enjoy it.

[@ralphyboy3856]

The details you put into your own home and no Dewalt tools insight 🤫🤫🤫😂😂🙏🙏

[@zman783]

Not sure if this is on purpose these days but you truly do use all the tool brands. I love it!! ❤ I am the same way. I buy the best tool, not brand.

[@SteveNathan-t5w]

Would you consider using space balls on the raised panel since it’s so close to the fire place. Love the content, modeled my paneled ceiling after your wife loves it!

[@Vermontractor]

Gotta get that done for the santa stockings!😊

[@job916]

Amazing. Love the process. Wish your videos were longer like in the beginning

[@miserablesod1]

Inspiring stuff Richard 👌🏻 Really wish Milwaukee would make their 23g pin nailer available in the U.K.

[@adamr1637]

Truly beautiful--Great job Richard!

[@chrisradley5924]

Great job and excellent detail as always..looking forward to the next video.

[@rhfabrication]

Looks beautiful! Aren't yoy concerned with wood movement on the panels though? Tight on the width and pinned could lead to cracking. Perhaps less of a problem on wainscoting?

[@tlanc1283]

Beautiful. You are a true inspiration!

[@williampagan4489]

Nice, Play aquarium screens on the TV...That would be neat.....suggestion

[@mikeprytherch8875]

Loving this series, you need to get working and editing, I can't stand the wait for the next episode 😀

[@peterbergeris6510]

Great work n insight.

[@isiahrowser]

Awesome job sir👍🏾👍🏾

[@bobainsworth5057]

Fine job.

[@pauline_diy]

Excellent work! I love what you do and the level of detail is very impressive. What router bit did you use for the bead?

[@stephenlea5765]

I was watching your latest video 12/10 & it changed to private before could finish it!

[@DYERFYER]

You’ve taught me so much over the years man, I appreciate these videos so much. Do you have a solution when you’re installing chair rail and the walls are very warped? Any help or maybe a link to one of your other vids would be awesome man. We are in our “forever” house finally and I’m not one for cutting corners. No pun intended. Thanks again man, mantel looks great!👍

[@mauriceryton]

Your work is so far above first class.

[@cata687]

Love you video Love how you explain everything trying to do it myself Thank you so much.

[@wuh-sup8513]

When you get to the pencil moulding, please show close-ups. I think this will work great for my project. Thanks!

[@sarabates2046]

So pretty , you are an artist.

[@Ceteria5]

You’re an incredible artist in your field!!!

[@JT_70]

I will be installing the same Frame TV above a fireplace for my daughter next week. I had never heard of that model. I hope she likes having a big structured wiring box in the wall behind like you showed. I’m not sure whether to install a 14”x14” or a 14”x17” box. Anyone have recommendations?

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

I pulled specs off Samsungs website.

[@kalc1f3r]

A work of Art!

[@robertkeenan9706]

Excellent work man! Looks awesome

[@JPost55465]

May have missed it.. was skimming vid.. but why not rip a miter on the edges of paneling on outside corner?

[@John-cb6wn]

I would have made that complete panel before I installed on the wall

[@Danman1972]

Looks great. Great series to see this come together. Pretty close to you... where are you getting your hardwoods? I have a lamp post in my front yard. I want to make an address block for it to hang. Planning on carving it, but need a nice thick outdoor wood and that would likely fit the bill.

[@Bob-L42]

I love the work you do and how passionate you are. Great to see you’re wearing hearing protection but I noticed a lot of times you do not wear eye protection. I’ve seen too many people ruin their eyes from not wearing protective eye gear. Please for your sake and your family’s sake, protect your eyes!!! Keep the videos coming.

[@JoePalumbo221]

Great work but a question. Aren't you concerned with expansion and contraction with the panel? Such a tight fit with no room for movement.

[@Penny21691]

Gorgeous

[@ВладимирДрак]

Хорошая работа, молодец !!!!

[@dankrzeminski6370]

Looks so good

[@georgejetson4378]

Hi Richard. Love your videos. Not sure about the corners though. Just curious on why you didn’t just overlap the stile on fireplace wall with the stile on the perpendicular wall? Also, since you’re painting everything, why not just make everything from mdf? It’s more dimensionally stable and less expensive than Spanish cedar.

[@bobheatwole804]

A TV over the fireplace is not where TV's go, find a nice unframed canvas print that compliments the theme you are trying to achieve instead of a TV...

[@ryansoo4000]

My house will be beautiful someday........and then you'll move. Nothing ruins a house faster for a woodworker than finishing it.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

I’ll probably move before finishing haha

[@Greg_Gatsby]

Good content. 👍

[@amycyclenut]

"My space is too big", said no one ever! LOL

[@rongrose3746]

It takes time !!

[@GroundedFlyboy737]

I cringed a bit when you friction fitted that panel in so tight. Especially since you've added pencil molding, why not give it a chance to move somewhat and prevent cracking? And just FYI, my daughter has gone through 3 of those frame looking Samsung TVs, they just keep failing. (Although Best Buy has been good in replacing them.). I advise you to register the TV and keep the receipt. I'm excited to see how you treat the corners, this will be a new one for me! Looks amazing, I really enjoyed this video, thank you! (I'm jealous of that sliding table saw too!!)

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

If you’ve ever worked with Spanish cedar you wouldn’t cringe at the fit. Very stable wood! Thanks!

[@Buckdeplorable]

What's the manufacturer of your table saw, planer combo machine? Great job btw.

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

Thanks! It’s an scm mini max lab300p

[@bulklogan539]

Ole St. Nick is coming soon, and I'm sure he'll appreciate that mantel. Don't forget to leave a spot for some giant cookies and a nice cold glass of milk for Ole Santa. HO HO HO!!!!!!

[@glendahanson4805]

Can you tell me please the exact beading bit you used? I’ve looked and seriously can not find it.

[@finntexbuild4809]

Someday over the rainbow my dreams come true (my house is beautiful) 😂. It will Richard, some day. I’ve been there, so I can actually empathize,not just sympathize with you. 🤠🇫🇮

[@dylankrebs9072]

How do you like the metabo 18 gauge

[@allthingsgrowing]

are you going to tell us the product name of your fireplace insert?

[@chammer171]

What are you spraying your trim with? I think you said it was just a primer. What is your reasoning for priming everything before putting it on vs paint spraying a primer coat at the end? Awesome video thanks!!

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

My main reason for pre priming is to get a sample of the full look throughout the process. I don’t like to see raw wood and primed mixed together. It makes it hard to read for me. Thanks!

[@DGALVIN45]

What's up with setting up shop outside? Why not use your garage set up?

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

Weather is so nice right now. 😃

[@DGALVIN45]

​@@FinishCarpentryTV👍💯

[@Ibanezed210]

Tiger Woods does carpentry.

[@danjones442]

How do you like the metabo gun compared to Milwaukee?

[@FinishCarpentryTV]

metabo definitely more compact and lightweight. Seems better than the Milwaukee so far.

[@JLLG2]

Nice shirt😊
