10 Day House Build: Day 3 - TJI Floor Complete & Wall Framing

[@AllreadyBooi]

This guy is a beast, walking the top plates like it’s nothing

[@RustyWrenches]

My grandpa and dad used to do it all day long. It still wigs me out walking up top, just don't look down!

[@MattBangsWood]

My Dad & Grandfather did it for years, Dad still does, Grandpa hasn't in years! It's not as bad as it seems, it's not the fall that hurts, it's the landing!

[@rubenvarela4077]

Its easy

[@AllreadyBooi]

Ruben Varela if it was easy everybody would be doing it..

[@Bill_N_ATX]

My grandfather and father used to hang iron for a living. The old man use to walk across beams a couple hundred feet in the air in the days before OSHA and tie offs. No wonder they often took a couple nips before work. They all had balls of steel.

From one carpenter too another, love watching a well oiled crew bang out a house. Good work I’m currently re-framing a double brick home from the inside out by myself. Been working for myself, by myself for 5 years now, 15 year as a carpenter by trade. I love banging wood all day. Cheer boys looking forward to tomorrow’s vid 👍🏻

As a fellow California boy that worked on several framing crews as a teenager I'm very happy to see your success in the trade, your energy and enthusiasm for your craft is very apparent in your work as well as in your videos.BANG ON BRO!

Nice one Matt, enjoying this 10day build. Although I’m a carpenter myself I still enjoy watching others to see how they do things and try get some tips for improving myself. Keep it up here from UK 🇬🇧 👊🏻

[@MattBangsWood]

Jack, this build hasn't been too knowledge filled like I wanted, due to the fact that we're racing trying to get it built.. But I've got more instructional content on the way.

[@mikeenglish2699]

Pro tip. Roll joist first and then put rim on. Easier to nail joist to wall and easier to walk plate

[@Factory928AC]

Can you explain to me how the i joist works when it starts on one side then the other side doesn’t line up and ones in front of the other? How does it end up 16 oc?

[@craigfinno551]

When you mark your 16sthe front goes ahead of your mark the back goes back

[@petel9242]

Watching from the UK, love the channel. One thing that strikes me is that our local authorities would never let you guys work at height like that, without a full scaffold around the whole of the building. Seriously, they would close the job site down. It's a different world, I tell you, and it's really interesting to see such a different attitude to risk when you compare our two countries. Keep up the good work, and stay safe!

[@michaelalonzo3027]

Even the owner knows matt. Awesome. Good work matt 🤘🏼

[@juliandodwell8213]

Should be playing short stop and second base with those throwing and catching skills

[@surebrah]

If the foundation isn't level, do you guys adjust for that in your framing? If so, how bad would it have to be before you adjusting?

[@MattBangsWood]

Many things can be done. If it’s terrible, 1”+, we’ll custom cut all studs, similar to how you would a rake wall. Shimming is done as well, but we’ve never had to. It’s either really good or really bad! We did a house last year that had (3) 2” dips on different spots on the house.

[@mrcupcakeman32]

[@carloscarrasco6774]

Damn bro you and your crew kick ass or should I say bang the shyyyyt out of the wood. Great video

[@bernardesparza5603]

Question. Where I can buy an impact nailer like you have

[@thelonestarpatriot]

It's looking great, Matt! The progress you all make in hours is equal to what it takes me in weeks! How do you address the wall OSB swelling (after a rain, for example) between the edges of adjacent sheets that cause unevenness by ~1/8"-3/16"? Does that ever reflect through to say the siding installation?

[@MattBangsWood]

Depending on the build, it’ll call for 3/8” on some shear sections and 1/2” on others. So we have differences anyways. Even after rain, it’s never noticeable in siding. 😊

[@Wewoka54]

You have a link for that palm nailer?? I would really appreciate it

[@MarkAnthonyGiven]

YOU MIGHT put a call out to local high schools and votecs for Interns (free labor) four week courses for hands on training. Even some production (camera etc.) students. That's a very valuable skill you have there and if an individual can read a ruler can pretty much teach it to anyone. Focus on quality of work and money will flow to you like breathing. If regulations and cost make it prohibitive post on FB your friends kids. I did plenty construction but framers are a select bunch. And despite several efforts of just walking up on jobs offering to clean up job sites but never could get in. It certainly docen't look all that hard but but some people seam to excel at it. Thats good work by the way. #Psalm19

[@psidvicious]

That’s a cool idea about bringing out HS kids for a sort of ‘Advanced Shop Votec’ thing but you can only imagine the liability issues that would arise. And I can just see the school board wanting to tell Matt (or his dad) how things should go. It’s a shame that something like that couldn’t be worked out but, such is the day of litigation we live in. -“First, we kill all the lawyers” - Shakespeare 1591 🤜🤛
