It’s been awhile since I’ve seen one of your videos. As usual, your skills are impressive and your work ethic shows clearly. I make my living as a carpenter/contractor.....licensed and all legal beagle. I’ve been in biz for 41 years. 18 days ago I applied for and paid for a building permit related to a small residential deck project. Usually there is a two week wait to receive the permit. So.....I demolished and dumped the original deck, built the new deck framework which is 8 feet off the ground. It’s supported by temporary posts. Using a laser...a plumb bob works too.....I located the new footing locations and dug the footing holes. 4 of them, 12” diameter by 42” deep. The original builder, a large production builder who builds hundreds of homes in Omaha yearly, didn’t “bother” with footings. How the original building inspector approved of the original deck is a mystery to me. Anyway, by the book, an inspector is supposed to personally view the freshly dug footing holes and confirm correct diameter and depth. It’s standard procedure. It’s the first inspection to be done on deck jobs. . As I said, I built the joist framework on temporary legs, dug the footing holes and assumed that the permit would be in hand by the time I had the digging done, I’d call for footing inspection, get the ok on hole size and I could mix and pour the concrete, erect permanent posts and header the next day and the project would keep moving. NOPE. I called city hall today to check on my permit availability. It could be 1 1/2 to 3 more weeks before issue. I don’t make $ by waiting around so ill proceed with the deck surface, aluminum railings, stairs and railing...etc....etc....all on temporary legs. Self employment always has challenges which is my point. Hence my respect for your repeated presence on KZbin. You understand that there’s a lot more going on besides the craftwork. Self employment is mixed with satisfaction and punishment. I wouldn’t have it any other way. And, my daughters and grandkids come onboard occasionally, similar to your experience. Thanks for listening/reading/whatever. And P.S., I also am hired to fix the “fixes” of previous “craftsmen”. Semper Fidelis Dave Heitman

This was a really good video. You should do more of these. Major rebuilds are very entertaining, but the simpler jobs are what most people would be willing and able to try themselves.

@@gerrywatson261 Ya Plonker.!! If it were an Audi it would have been worth repairing. I had 2 of those, both less than 3 years old and serviced by main stealer. They both went into limp mode in the outside lane of the M25 due to a software fault thinking the pre-cat sensor was faulty.. I had to keep an OBD reader plugged in so I could reset it after crossing 4 lanes of motorway in the aforementioned limp mode. How bloody dangerous is that then.?. They should all be recalled and scrapped, be they Spewick, Pauxhall or sodding Opels. Awful GM worldwide motor cars. The new model isn't much better either.. Rant over. Phew.!

It's incredible how some shops will honestly leave your car! That why I always feel like taking my car to any shop is kinda like letting your wife go out with 'the girls', you don't want to but you have to because if not, you will have more problems. 😂😂

That chrome trim alignment between front and rear doors was the first thing my eyes beamed to, as soon as I seen it before you even pointed it out. Great work man, honestly when damage to pillars like what this had... cut swaps is the only way. That previous work, oh my eyes were hurting haha.

This transformation was great to watch. Your skills are beyond question. I am afraid that Mr. Spotty may have been lost inside the repair, though. If you listen carefully, can you hear him screaming like Mr.Bill? Poor little guy.

Class work here, I think you're being your usual laconic self calling these videos boring as they are actually very instructional and way cooler than watching some idiot ramble on about throwing a lambo back together...You're a real mechanic and your ethic of doing quality work is admirable and sadly disappearing...Well done on a top job done right...
