[@christophercarr1331]

Can I just say I really enjoy watching your videos on carpentry it is really enjoyable and interesting

[@adammullen1770]

Great video mate I a 35 and starting citb training level 1 joinery and this video is great so I don’t suck to bad lol

[@arry6536]

[@masherco]

So what did you end up doing friend

[@MK-ne6sj]

Great video . Nice to watch a good chippy work . Any tips and tricks would be much appreciated. 👍👍

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks 🙏

[@anthonyarmstrong5133]

Great vids mate keep it up from an apprentice carpenter cheers

[@IrishRazz_]

Great vid bro starting my first day out on site on Monday doing joinery really looking forward to it

[@jackhines3747]

Nice one mate hope it goes well

[@offcuts4146]

Really good video just subscribed im looking at getting into carpentry and some really good tips like using spacers to get noggins same height

[@g.bhaiyajiindia1470]

Hi Jack You are creating future content. Really appreciate.

[@farqadthejeel2300]

Your amazing man keep it up. Upload more videos like this 👌🏻

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks bud !

[@davidlawther3032]

Nice one man you remind me of Scott brown carpentry

[@gritm4ntf]

Class watching this, identical to what I do on site even the way you set all your stud out and building your bulk head, looks like a bovis or Taylor wimpey site?

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks mate, this was a crest site mate

[@martynbull781]

Great video I'm hopefully starting a carpentry apprenticeships soon for a change if career

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks 🙏 good luck mate

[@THECARKUS]

Nice work mate. Keep em coming!

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks mark

[@Lakenbeer]

Good work lucky on that site on mine they make us put damp on any timbers up against the block wall even on the first and second floors, I'd say if there's damp that far up the house is fucked anyway haha

[@jackhines3747]

Thank you! I’ve also seen that done on sites too, like yourself I think it’s pointless

[@adreenryan2901]

Your right I put damp proof insulation on each frame against outside wall and vaper barrier on too of stud wall.

[@jacobcottom8836]

Have you not thought about marking the timbers all at once going round nailing the bottom then levelling them after I find it slot easier

[@tribalm0nkey]

Nice job, does that nail gun go straight through the block work? When I seen u stand on the bulk head and only fixed it with nails I didn’t think it would take your weight but it did lol.

[@ExtreamTrickZzz]

Nice vid, you should make more like joists and roofs

[@tonyforeman5083]

I agree. Mayne go threw the plans to show how u set them all out too. Not much help at all on the net for people wanting to sharpen up there skills and knowledge unless u want to part with some doe. I'm a firm believer information for people who want to learn should be free

[@marcusregan4815]

Nice work mate, enjoy the videos. What's your fav / least fav aspects of carpentry?

[@thadgiannetti790]

Great vid, top skills, you flew through that bulkhead, i'm not sure that was time lapse , might have been real time! 💪 💪

[@jackhines3747]

It was speeded up, probably took 1-2 hours to complete. Thanks

[@lovingitandlife]

enjoyed watching that vid,in part 1 what laser was you using?,thanks mark.

[@moggyman6413]

Hi Jack, what height do you set the noggins in the stud walls

[@jackhines3747]

I put the top of the noggin to 1035mm from the floor. Then the sparks don’t have to bash out any noggins and there switches can just sit straight on top! Hope that helps 👍🏻

[@moggyman6413]

@@jackhines3747 thanks Jack much appreciated

[@cartooningforeveryone1486]

Nice one. I'm back on the tools in 4 weeks after time in the military really looking forward to it. Out of curiositie what camera and video editing app did you use.

[@jackhines3747]

Using a GoPro hero 4 and editing on premier pro 👍🏻

[@Hardspace1979]

Hello mate.... i worked out in California for 4 years working on some big custom gaffs doing american style framing. Back now and learnt quite a bit, but it was about 10 years ago. What would be the chances of me getting taken on considering i am late thirties? The knowledge is still there, just went into other things while i was there.

[@jackhines3747]

Not really sure to be honest mate, I know there is a lot of work out there. I’d just ring a few companies and ask them to give you a shot

[@Hardspace1979]

Jack Hines thanks mate, much appreciated. Maybe i would be best trying to get on crew that work for a timber frame flat pack company.

[@pavitarrajvirdee8808]

Nyc job

[@Scottymackay]

How fair apart should each stud be ?

[@jackhines3747]

600mm max, 400mm preferably

[@HowToSandAFloor]

8 cls in one go lol 👌🏼

[@CryptoBond007]

doesn't even get the chop saw out, legend 👌💪👍

[@stevenmartin-jones4345]

Do cuts free hand 🤦‍♂️

[@CryptoBond007]

@@stevenmartin-jones4345 it's price work Steve get in get out. Never cut anything by hand 😁

[@stevenmartin-jones4345]

36 volt chop saw on tressels with bench top . Mark out plates before you put them down . Stand studs up wall save bending down . Cut bottom of door for head save cutting 2 times . Loads of things he can do to improve is speed

[@CryptoBond007]

@@stevenmartin-jones4345 his chop saw got stolen out the van hence why it's done this way steve. Three different ways to cut, mark up, and set out a room every carpenter knows this and has various ways to save time. when you have no chop saw this is the only way and quickest way to make money hands down. I don't think anyone uses 110v on site anymore unless you have old kit or a 110v .HEPA vac for your chopsaw etc that's it.

[@stevenmartin-jones4345]

#CRYPTO BOND 007 Oh only just started watching him didn’t realise he had his kit stolen terrible. Who’s the work for we work for barratts /David Wilson . How about you ?

[@alexbekele8945]

Quick question - what was that trick when marking out your uprights did you measure 1200 then went back 400 each time to get spacing?? Thanks

[@darrenwest3432]

Hi pal what tool belt do you use?

[@keycommander971]

I used to be based in the Army camp under that bridge 15 years ago it’s flew by, how much do u have to pay now to cross

[@jackhines3747]

Yes beaches barracks! The tolls went free a few years ago. 👍🏻

[@d2cdl]

So good to see you using a noggin stick to help fix your 362mm noggins. Have a go at actually using your square as an actual guide to run you saw against. Its accurate and super quick. I always set my studs at 400,s from any external or party wall, that way, if you ever need to fix anything to a wall at 2nd fix, you know there'll always be a fixing 400 in. You're doing a great job there mate.

[@oj4544]

Alright mate, im an apprentice and struggle at first fixing. How do you know where to put the noggins for the loft hatch? and is there any specific sizes usually? cheers

[@jackhines3747]

It’s usually on the drawings mate, it not then I would usually put in the hallway where it’s not in the way of lights etc. Also the size varies in what hatch you are using. On this site the opening is 760mm, but just check on the attic trap box for sizes.

[@nathanf1356]

Nice vid's I am thinking on becoming a carpenter one day, is it hard or do you find it easy after time? And how is the pay? Thanks

[@Wsadef]

Hi Jack, How would you recommend to get into carpentry at age of 28? I know how to use tools, as I used to work with them when I was still living at parents house. Been working in office jobs for the past 4 years, it's not really enjoyable lol. Therefore, thinking about new career.

[@jackhines3747]

Hi, I would defiantly say it’s not too late, I’ve seen plenty of apprentices on site in there late 20s and even 30s. You might have to take a drop in wages for a couple of years but if it’s what you really want to do just ride it out and it will be worth it after. Maybe try contacting a few carpentry contractors or local builders asking for a chance or even some ‘free’ weekend work to get your foot in door. Aslong as your keen and they can see that you have a better shot. Hope that helps.

[@Wsadef]

@@jackhines3747 Thanks for reply. The thing with me, I ain't got a clue if I would really like it. Just trying to find right career. Would you say clearly stay away from college, as it would be waste of time. And better just to get working directly with local builders?

[@jackhines3747]

Stay away from college if your not sure wether you will like, try get some weekend work to start to see if you would like it before committing to a college course

[@17MikeThompson]

Hi mate for the bulk head where are you measuring your 2.1m from?

[@jackhines3747]

I usually just measure from the stair string

[@brskcool]

Nice video dude just subbed

[@Spetsnaz0o1]

Good vid mate, need more like this. Maybe some more specific how to videos? Dealing with common problems in first fix maybe? What to do if the blockwork is out of square stuff like that. Are these Redrow houses? look similar to the ones on our site. Keep it up!

[@jackhines3747]

Thanks appreciate it! I have loads of ideas in the pipe line mate. I’m just struggling to get some footage at the mo due to other trades being in plots and things just not going to plan. Good idea about possible problems too il keep that in mind. I’ve definitely got some more filming to do! Thanks 🙏

[@MAWoody]

When doing site work, do you have to provide all the consumables, like fixings and adhesives, or are they provided as part of the materials? Great content btw!

[@jackhines3747]

No all the fixings are supplied mate, although I have heard of some sites where you supply the fixings too. I just have my own tools and labour. Thanks 🙏

[@MAWoody]

@@jackhines3747 I'm a joiner myself but stuck in the property maintenance game, looking to move onto site work.

Why do you never sight your timber to see which way the crown should go ? Good videos though!

[@tonyforeman5083]

I'm staring on site soon and need a few tips if poss before I start. Any chance of some help bro

[@jackhines3747]

What can i help with mate?

[@tonyforeman5083]

@@jackhines3747 well I'm pretty confident in my 2nd fix. But not done no 1st for a while. I'm very handy with wood just not done any 1st fix on site for years. I wanted to know are the drawings for subbys self explanatory? Will I be able to read exactly what needs to go where from a drawing. Stud walls, floor joist, roof truss. Will these be easy enough to work out. I dont wanna look like a pratt. Just want to learn about before I actually turn up once the brickies have got to wall plate level

[@saulgilsenan8122]

Hey man, new sub here! How would you recommend getting into carpentry for someone who is 26? Apprenticeships still the way forward? 😁

[@jackhines3747]

Yes mate absolutely go for it! 26 is still young, could do apprentice or start labouring for someone and picking it up along the way, might take a bit longer that way though. Thanks for sub 🙏

[@colbydowning470]

I went to collage at the age of 25 finished at the age off 27 I'm 28 didn't find much work when I finished collage so started shopfitting I'm currently working for a carpentry company and I'm a month in working for my new firm I'm doing first fix tomorrow so hence I'm watching this video have been doing celotex and window boards up until this point and I'm on 1st fix and boxing in pipe work I have done boxing in before but not on a first fix situation so would be done to put a vidoe put reguarding that.hope all is well keep it up and to the lad who asked about is it worth it .yes it is but dont sout your self and give up 💯🙏

Awesome vid as always Jack, keep it up buddy! Also, I was just wondering, how do you mount your cam when driving/working? I've just been accepted onto a carpentry apprenticeship and I'm actually thinking about making some of my own vids eventually.

why cant i find an efficient carpenter like this in london to work for me .

[@ThatRunnerAaron]

Are we that hard to find?

[@bullskitter]

whats it like to be an apprentice?

[@jackhines3747]

It varies on the trainer and site mate. I hear good and bad stories about both. Just make sure that your learning and not being used as cheap labour !

[@mikegibbons1436]

Hi mate, do you shoot your paslode nails through the mortar joints or into the block? I didnt think they would go in and hold like that?

[@jackhines3747]

Yes I shoot into the block in this house as it’s only thermal blocks, holds it fine temporally then all gets bolts to walls after 👍🏻

[@ThatRunnerAaron]

Didn’t house the bulkhead timber into the block work 💀💀

Seen that mate just nailed it to the wall
