I’ve always admired the editing on your videos. That being said, I recently learned how to use After Effects and by god, the amount of appreciation I have for your video editing cannot be measured. It’s truly masterful and I really don’t want to know (but I do) how many hours went into editing this. Excellent work! Can’t wait for the next one!

Thank you! So many hours, more like days. 😂 I just have so much fun editing. I use Final Cut Pro X though. I’m not sure if it would be easier than after effects.

[@travisandtracyjacobs6198]

I stumbled on your site today. I super entertained. Looks like you love what you do. When you were cutting the outside pieces of mdf, are you measuring Long point to Long point each time? As a fan of log homes and wood, would it be hard to make a coffered ceilings with just raw wood? Would it be a PITA to fill in the holes? I liked just the 2x8 on there. To me it was raw AF. But I get that white or other painted ceilings are more modern to the masses. Thank you for putting this out. I enjoyed it.

[@TMPK]

Thank you! I probably like real wood coffered ceilings better also. I was probably measuring the short points on those outside angles. The 2x8s are a little too raw for me, maybe wrap them the same way in wood 1x6’s and 1x8’s 👍👍

[@travisandtracyjacobs6198]

@@TMPK Oh yeah. I didn’t think about just wrapping the studs. 😣 I am starting to learn about crown. Never cut a piece and avoided it as I didn’t want know about it. But then I saw someone with it in their home on Pinterest, it wasn’t painted, maybe a clear coat, it was a little knotty, and it looked awesome-kinda opened my eyes to it and maybe my mind. So now when I see it in videos or homes, I enjoy it. I would rather see it without paint, but thats just preference. It really frames a wall in. I like that. I am watching your Mantel video right now and like this old school music. What is that sander that you are using? Looks like a Dewalt drill with attachment or Mirka?

Jared, Funny Guy, Serious question: but I’ll keep it light. I notice coffered ceilings are not usually framed out in the perimeter, rather the Coffer beams Just end into the wall With no coffer beams being built on the perimeter. And esthetic reasons or benefits of one style over the other.

[@markgibson5163]

Hey I want to ask you the Crown moldi that you used what place did you get it from like home ? Depot lowe's and how many feet is the each 8 pieces that you had. And is it wood or pvc because i've seen it kind of flexing.

[@TMPK]

It’s a 5 inch cove crown 16ft long made of MDF. We get it at a local lumberyard called Henley Supply. Lowe’s and Home Depot down usually carry this kind of crown. Check lumberyards. Maybe there’s an 84 Lumber near you.

[@markgibson5163]

Im bout to do a coffered this week...already started it....question....Why MDF over pre primed 1x? just wondering if I should be using MDF? honestly I try to stay away from it but more and more im seeing it in high end stuff from high end carpenters. Let me know your thoughts on it. much appreciated.

[@TMPK]

@@mirg6204 I like both, I just use whatever my builders want. But I feel like I can always glue and sand MDF joints smoother than primed wood. Maybe that’s why some people like it, I don’t know.

[@mattadkins2121]

Dumb question. What kind of a nail gun and nails should I buy for the trim work. I already have the pine mounted, I just need to start installing the mdf sides.

[@TMPK]

NT65M2S - if you search that it’ll pull up the gun I like. It’s got a button you can hit with your thumb to allow compressed air to pass through the gun like a blower. Pretty cool. It’s a 16 gauge finish nailer. I use 2 inch straight nails for almost everything.

[@mattadkins2121]

I have my boxes up (minus the down facing 1x8's) What did you use on the seams that you sanded? Wood filler? joint compound??

[@TMPK]

@@mattadkins2121 I normally just glue the joints, let them dry, then sand. But if I’m fixing a joint gap I’d use regular bondo. It’s awesome how easy it sands smooth

If I missed or may be a stupid question. Did you used mdf joint compound before sanding?

Nope. Just wood glue and super tight joints. Nothing against putty or bondo before sanding though, just made sure it was tiiiiight for the camera 😂 But I prefer regular bondo for bad joints on mdf.

[@MRLAK-sb3mo]

HEY JARED, GREAT VIDS! Where do you get your MDF 16' with 4 square corners/edges? All I can find is 2 square and 2 eased edges. I need 4 square like you use.

Thanks! You need to call some of your local lumber yards. Most have MDF in all sizes in a warehouse. I believe 84 Lumber is a nationwide brand. I know here in Huntsville, Alabama, our 84 lumber has all primed mdf sizes. Good luck!

[@ElliebotConstruction]

Can I ask how you price a job like this? I've been asked to do a ceiling and I'm not sure whether to quote by the project, linear foot or square footage of the room.

[@1957kwick]

Is there a reason why you 45 the outside corners and not inside ones? On the center box. Just curious🛠🇺🇸🛠

[@TMPK]

I think the outside corners just look better 45ed and the inside are easier to get flush and nail if they’re square. I’ve done it both ways and I guess it’s fine either way 🤷‍♂️

[@nikoredone]

Hey man just wanted to say love your videos. Just had a question. During the finishing process do you caulk the edges/joints before painting Thanks!

Is there a trick on how you bend your tape measure into a corner to measure crown and get accurate lengths and are able to cut once without having to trim the boards?

[@TMPK]

I just push the tape in hard. I go through about a tape a month cause I’m pretty rough on them. Another way would be measure an inch from the corner and make a mark, then measure from the other direction to your mark and add an inch. I’ve been doing this as a career for so long, like 16 years, so I’m pretty good at measuring, writing it down and cutting it right.
