Thank you so much!

Now i understand the problem

I have stayed in some Public Use A Frame cabins and did not care for them at all. They felt very small inside especially in the loft. You have to sleep on the floor. No head room. Difficult to furnish. The ones I do like have a conventional room added to each side or had short vertical walls.

Wow! Awesome advice!

Slab would be great if contractors were more conscientious and actually made it square. Unfortunately most contractors suck.

how about a simple triangle calculator ? You know the botton lenght 10 ft you know two angles angle 90 degrees and the pitch angle you know the 40 inches measuement why do you complicate it ?

EXCELLENT. THANK YOU.

it work great to me thank you!

Thank you! Excellent visuals and very detailed and concise explanations. UA-cam videos are like houses on halloween. There were always a few houses that gave king-size candy bars. Some gave apples or smarties, some gave nothing. You are giving out brand new cars like Oprah!

Thanks!

HELPPP my top isn’t coming off

If you screw the horizontal woodpieces at the bottom of the fence, they are touching the soil. Isn't that going to cause the fence to rot?

Good one

22ft span okay? Ive been debating this for a long time and my ehole garage build is held up. Im i. Southeast texas, no snow lol.

Thank you so much. This was so helpful.

Always useful information in your channel 😊

Thanks again for all your contributions and knowledge over the years, Greg!

ty

Is there any reason the long sides get framed all the way to the ends and the short sides get fit inside the long sides, as opposed to having the short sides go to the ends?

Wow tnx po

Wow ❤

Thats assuming ALL the plumbing pipes were installed to code.

You said 1/4 and 3/4, then you said 1/3 and 2/3. Which one is it?

Could you explain on the gable ends how to enter the Over hang? I want to add 2’ over hang on the entire perimeter of the roof there is no over hang now. Thank you

Why not wrap the bottom of the post with poly?

What a two bedroom garage conversion look like I have a daughter with two kids so I would like to convert my Garage to include a bedroom for my daughter and another bedroom for her two kids. What would that look like?

The aesthetic value of this design is not worth the work involved. Good luck bending half-inch plywood lengthwise. Good video though. Nice work.

My friend had me check under his house after an HVAC tech told him there was a small water leak down there. One of the things I found was a floor joist that had been completely cut out in 2 different places (see my profile pic) for the toilet and bathroom sink drain pipes. He had no idea it was like that. I don't know how no one ever fell through his bathroom floor.

I would use 90 degrees angle clips instead of nails with your method.

I'm surprised Simpson hasn't made a bottom connector for stair stringers like their LCSZ for the top...

What if it's a load bearing exterior wall...

Nice

Thanks so much, Greg! i will make the base support the way you recommend from now on. Another aspect related to exterior stairs: about the cement landing cement pad for exterior stairs, in order to meet the building code in Hawai'i, the part of the pad that will be walked on must measure least 3 feet out beyond the last tread.

I suppose one could do a hybrid method,in which one makes a very shallow notch,like 1/2 the depth of the base plate......(no cement contact of stair stringer)

Yuo give the best advice

Shear force should be supported by what you suggested.

Have you ever tried to remove an exterior door by removing the pins? It’s not so easy. The barrel for the framing side hinge overlaps the flat part of the door side hinge about a 1/4 inch. You’ll need a pry bar strong enough to bend the hinge barrel out of the way. When the door is open taking the pins out to remove the door is no problem and quiet.

Dumb question here. Say you're framing an 8 foot section. Then your studs will be at 16, 32, 48, 64, 80 and 96 OC. Since that last stud is at 96 OC if you put it on center it would extend 3/4" past the top and bottom plates. In that case do you shift the stud back 3/4" so that it stays flush within the top and bottom plates?

Super helpful! Thanks for posting this. Our city of Calgary Alberta had a main feeder water main break on early June 2024 and all citizens of Calgary have been asked to conserve water. One great idea that came out was to catch the cold initial tap water in a bucket while waiting for the running water to warm up which usually wastes about 2 L of water, then using that cold water to water plants or to flush the toilet. I knew you could flush the toilet but I wasn't sure how until I saw your video so thank you again

That hold-down at the thumbnail can't hold down itself!...😅

Thank you for sharing this video Greg. I will soon be placing and LVL over my garage. This is my first time building a garage. Looking forward to it.

How do you tell between condensation versus a leak?

Hacked up by the plumber?? No way😊

Thank you!

If you notch the form boards, how do you stop concrete coming out under the rebar, through that notch? Or is it OK if it does leak out as you're going to pour more concrete there eventually?

Too many regulations! I know they are in place for a reason. Thank you Greg.

is there a certain height limit you would recomend for this technique i want to build up about 4 to 5 feet on the my front cabin wall to make a loft thanks!!

How would you rate alternative flashing materials like aluminum or PVC instead of the galvanized metal? Also know they make flashing tape, don't know if that could offer any function in a project like this...
