We thought this side job would be easy!

"This looks like something i would do back in florida." And just like that, so much is explained...

Exactly, speaking as a native Floridian, Jay is a "Florida man story" all by himself. He's funny!

[@Splits-man]

Behind all the fun and games you guys really are incredibly professional. I love the way you think through every job for the best solution for the customer.

[@Stevej2013]

Gents, that was no easy job, and you boys had fun and laughs doing it, and it came out looking great. Well done to you all. So professional.

[@padresouth2]

I would have liked the herringbone all the way to the fan. And there you are ripping out pocket doors!!! I WANT pocket doors. Tired of the bruises on my arms from hitting the doorknobs. Wish I could afford to redo my house. Love watching you guys. You can tell there is a lot of love and respect.

[@andrewotte8947]

I’m primarily a remodel carpenter, so I definitely know the struggle! Love the channel guys, keep up the great work.

[@ciscojames104]

I’ve never built a house I mainly remodel and the crazy shit you see is baffling

[@steelvalleysportsmen7737]

The struggle you feel on this one is the struggle of a finish carpenter every day. I really appreciate the work you guys put into framing and building. I use never come e across it in person in my carrier personally, but I appreciate that good work actually is out there

[@stevenleiler9034]

Back to the 70's with knotty pine, they'll paint it white in a few years. good idea with the osb.

[@moderndesigncarpentry8055]

The only thing I could possibly add to this video is my own pro tip. Since that trim was bought that day and not acclimated, I would have scarfed the joints on a 15 degree angle, stained the end grain, and coped the corners. As soon as it starts moving you’re going to see it. Excellent choice to herringbone though! I love the look!

[@jamesmcfadden5214]

Ahh, the joys of remodeling. Looks like a normal day for me. Finish work is always fun tho, as Ryan with @ Victory Outdoor Services always says "Eaaaasy Money"

[@bonzai55]

Nice vid! Pro tip - 4 ladders and 4 short walk boards gives total access and saves time from shuffling ladders all day!

[@davidgoodman7537]

Sorry, but have to say that seeing professional grade carpenters using a Walmart cap saw is startling, yet awesome!!! Loved the video!

Hi guys, love your show. I great tip on light bulb install is to used dielectric grease. It will conduct electric current and keep moisture out.

[@upman664]

Can't imagine having a contractor come into my house and making them move all the furniture. Lol Guess that comes from me doing so much DIY

[@zchettaz]

I'm a floor layer. You'd be suprised at how many people don't bother moving furniture... put it this way, I now let them know prior to the day of installation that I charge extra to move furniture, best thing I ever done cause I rarely move furniture anymore.

[@royalconstruction8032]

Oh man…. I have TG pine on the ceiling in my bedroom. I burnt it instead of stain… looks cool…. but I feel your pain, literally lol.

[@abcertweld]

Among many other things in the house I did. I did a house in Washington D.C. 3/4" Ash tounge and groove ceiling sectioned in rectangular panels intersected with 2"×10" Ash boxed. Then sanded burning shoulders. Then treated with Brazilian Rosewood Oil. The Row Houe was 15ft.x 80ft. my shoulders will never forget that job. 😂

[@DaytonaJae]

Whomever cut that circle for the ceiling fan is the real surgeon.

[@matteberry58]

I made so little money on extremely detailed finish carpentry jobs like this job that you'd think I would just say no to similar new opportunities... But no, I keep on falling into the same ditch and never learn. Remodeling ALWAYS takes more time and materials than you think.

[@davegordon6943]

I usually take how long it'll take me and then double it, add 10 hours for subs and then triple all of that haha.

[@Bdigital9482]

This is why most fail. Great craftsman doesn’t equate to great business man.

[@BeenThereDundas]

extremely detailed?

Sounds like you're not good with math or money. Do better or shut up.

[@johndehoog5567]

Ahh the joys of remodeling. Quote the job, in and out in one day, "easy money....NOT". The details always come back to bite you. Nice recovery on a surprising complex job. Love the videos.

[@contento66]

Jason mispronouncing "Roomba" is for some reason the funniest thing I've ever seen on your guys channel. "It's like a rumba!" LOOOOLLLLL

[@davegordon6943]

One thing I never see you guys do is condition any pine before you stain. Makes a much richer and fuller coat of stain. Y'all do such good work and that would just add awesomeness to your houses.

[@doctorwork]

Exactly! You also run the risk of getting blotchy results when you use an oil stain on a softwood with pre-conditioning it.

[@davegordon6943]

@@doctorwork I've had to sand off and redo a really nice set of "stain grade" pine stairs because the guy doing it wouldn't listen. You could see perfect boot and hand prints that you couldn't really see until it was stained. I guess he thought it would blend in eventually haha. I don't know but yeah it's a must on any kind of fir tree.

[@smannydith9589]
