This was a little sketchy doing it this way lifting this whole unit overhead but it worked out in the end! If the room would have been much bigger I don't think it would have worked out so well.

[@JB-ez2jz]

You need to get some "FastCap 3rd hand poles." Woulda been those "2 ex guys u needed"👍

[@jessemurray1757]

wondering how you would have done it otherwise. Since you covered up your pocket holes by lifting it in place.

[@matthewgoetz4988]

So, would you have still pocket hole screwed but from the face side? After tacking the ceiling up?

[@Joeybot]

[@randycarreiro8363]

Little trick I have my crews do I learned years back in the union. When gluing panels push the panel tight then pull away as to allow the glue to string then push it back up. Get a little air on there and better I think . And there's your dinner

[@philipbohi983]

Randy Carreiro - that’s a great tip. We did that experiment with contact cement and the adhesion is almost 6x stronger. (Measuring the pulling force it takes to separate the materials). Besides the final cured strength, the immediate adhesion is more than double.

[@hmtrimworks7148]

I’m not trying to be a smart ass by any means, but wouldn’t it be so much easier to prime and paint everything in full lengths & sheets before hand (before you make your first cut) then measure, cut & install and just touch up the paint when done… It would save so much time in masking & prepping for paint on site... You do beautiful work by the way and I have picked up some tricks and tips from your videos... you are awesome at explaining what you are doing...

[@crich1218]

Cool take on a sorta "coffered ceiling." I'd love to see your thought process on determining your spacing and layout based on what dimensions youre working with and the customers requests. Showing the install is great but coming up with a game plan is the other half of the battle. Thanks for keeping the videos coming 👍

Can’t wait to see the finished product 🤓

[@davidpower1843]

Do you ever get pushback from customers on jobs like this about your method to complete what they want? As in, I could see a customer questioning your decision to leave the base molding on out of fear that it won’t match, or line up properly, or look like it was two different installs, etc. Or, do you not even get into details like that and just do it? I could see it could coming up when going over a quote because there’s a notable difference in required materials and labor - you’re essentially cutting corners (lol) but in a totally legit and understandable way. Even though you’re obviously gonna make it look dope (and I agree with the call), I can hear the whines of “no no I want it done like *this*” in my ears.

[@dangermani1909]

Did anyone hear that lady jumping the gun and crying about chalk on the ceiling lol

[@elmamahd6924]

Dan Germani yep!!🤣 don’t you just love it when customers start whining when the job isn’t even finished.

That's what happens when you have a customer that either has no idea what's going on, or, just as likely, has had bad experience with contractors. At least she was nice about it.

I really enjoyed watching this video. It brought back memories when we did the ceilings of Irish pubs here in Stockholm. The only difference between both of your ceiling videos and ours is that we used stained & clear lacquered oak. So glad I found your channel. Stay safe and healthy.

[@dokmanian]

we do the same thing just cut wire and push them in and can you give me a estimate on doing my crown molding from your house thank you

[@mikemack55]

Great videos! I want to do something like this for my ceiling. How would you deal with a more complicated layout where there is a hallway, entryway, kitchen and living room all with varying lengths and widths?

[@TheBackyardFox]

Before you throw that fire detector back inside the ceiling at least take out the 9v battery. Can come in handy!

[@Jetski270]

Your so right about the dewalt track saw. I just picked up the 60v kit and I love it. Going to do one of these projects in my master bedroom. Great video

[@russwilkerson2741]

Yeah no one needs a smoke detector. Just throw the wires in the attic. As long as it doesn’t burn down while your there. 🤔

[@joanies6778]

Yes. I would do this on my ceilings. I love it... hope there's a reveal on the end result. Love that rip saw and the accordion contraption.

That look so so good. How much and where are you.

[@trevorblue]

Ha! I feel bad for anyone that comes in after me and has to figure out that everything is glued and pocket screwed

[@castaicmikeshea]

Trevor Blue haha your comment made me laugh. I say the same thing after all of my jobs. “Bulletproof work”

[@bighands69]

That will last for years. People are just too quick to rip stuff out today. I doubt that people would rip out good qaulity work.

[@customrefinishingSTL]

I agree with Joey Dafish. Make sure to get the kit which comes with a storage bag. They have several lengths available. Short for cabinet installs (microwaves, etc.) and longer for standard ceilings. Compared to Zipwall brand, the Fastcap have detent pins that will get the pole length closer to your needed height and a squeeze handle to extend the rod the rest of the way and hold pressure where needed. We had a remediation company at our house and they used the ZipWall brand and the damn poles kept falling over as the twist lock mechanism was worn out and wouldn't keep pressure against the ceiling to hold the plastic tight. They were falling all over the living room and onto the tv. Very aggravating. Anyhow, I use the Third Hands and plastic to build on site paint booths, dust barriers (drywall sanding), etc. I do however like the ZipWall brand zippers. They have adhesive that you attach to the plastic and make it so you can gain entry to the protected area and then seal it back as needed.

[@antonioalvarado2362]

I like this video one of my favorites..you might want to try a panel lifter, usually used to install sheet rock, will help out and allow you to be hands free.

[@journeywood3555]

I feel so dumb I been watching for a while now and just now figured out your from Dallas FORT WORTH 🤜🤛

[@jerseyjim9092]

I love the look but I'm not keen on permanently gluing the panels to the sheetrock. I've been exploring alternatives such as using thicker panels that wouldn't need support in the field.

[@thomasrossi31]

I just said the same thing about the track saw. It’s awesome. Best $500 I’ve spent.

[@georgelowellohhdgg63nnd96]

"If I could install crown molding at your house from my house, I would" that's funny!

[@TrevorC84]

Question, if you weren’t using panel molding would you install the tempered hard board first and hide the seams with the boards or would you cut each panel tight to the boards? Love your videos, thanks!!

[@bonsaifav.4648]

_____ but that ceiling is , what maybe 10'x10'. what if you had a bigger ceiling wall? even when I see you struggle with large walls when trying to pick up, you can pocket screw sections and glue and shim the next section. I have done a wall 12' hight by 36' in length and pocket screw it in 6 sections.

[@robarinc.2859]

Richard that house is going to be worth MEGA money when you sell it brother!!! I would do that any day shit ya you coming to Vermont to help me? I'll pay 10k for 2 weeks work and all expenses!

[@hartshepherd5060]

Great work. If it's your home I guess it's okay to disconnect that smoke detector, but you could run into liability issues doing that in a customer's home.

[@craigburghardt8604]

Why would assemble that all on the floor and need to screw it all together? Then have to lift the whole thing up. Just glue and tack up each board with brad nails, fill small gaps, if any with wood patch and all good. Am I missing something?

[@MNnytrorider]

It nice that essential people have open roads because all the non essential are at home lol

[@jbb5470]

Richard, where is the Milwaukee nailer? I bought one like you had a while back and love it.

[@JohnR9965]

[@ginoasci2876]

why the 1/4” msg panels? its a new smooth surface but it’s a waste considering it won’t give a sense of depth to the ceiling, yes? the existing ceiling is just as smooth. i’m just asking because i don’t understand what the purpose is. nice work you do, keep it up!

[@josephdestaubin7426]

You are of course kidding about the fire alarm, yes? It's 100% illegal in Texas to do that. But then like I said, you are kidding, right?

[@pcatful]

Could you just put the hardboard up first and not have to cut it all out? What level finish was the drywall- was the hardboard really needed? A lot of detail in the ceiling of an otherwise unremarkable little room.

[@nathanbutters2046]

He hasnt done cross halving joints for timber in middle? Would be more professional and look alot better than just trimming timber down, fitting pieces between. Would have looked alot better with cross halving joints.

[@jbonegw]

You didn’t wear your hard hat Richard. 🤣

[@corin164]

I was just about to comment re the "nailing " of the hard board to the ceiling. In my mind, I thought, wouldn't it be better to use staples instead of brads, when the narrator pointed out that he uses staples instead of brads to avoid the brads shooting through the hard board. Talk about coincidence.

[@bettywhiti2025]

great work but you should team up with a painter man ..installing raw wood isnt really adequate. due to the fact that you won't be able to prime the cracks. that leads to cracking caulk in years time.. maybe just buy primed wood and give it a light sanding then install.. just a better overall product for the customer.

[@KuriusOranj]

Was that a smoke detector that you removed because "no one ever uses them anyways"? Seems like some people might like to survive a fire. Weird.
