Yes they stated it was a mix of quartersawn and rift. I'm referring to the flooring. My cabinets were for illustration purposes as they are specifically quartersawn predominantly in the paneled areas. They sell just rift or just quartersawn, to marked as mixed it should have clearly had more of a ratio of the quartersawn mix involved. I've been around nearly 40 years working with it too so I know the differences clearly. Yes I had a few quartersawn planks in there, but it was far from what they were advertising. Hurst did nothing to rectify the issue....I get what I got is what they said via their supplier.

Not really that big I didn't think...I've seen them 2X this size around dad's next door. This one can pack it in though....I put enough for a person out there for dinner and this little fiend ate every bit of it.

The point of this video is to show what I purchased was not what I was sold. Big difference when you want the look your after and have to settle for something you didn't pay for or to a much lesser degree. I understand there to be a mix of rift and quartersawn, but they were not even remotely close to the quartersawn and as such it should not be advertised as such and I should have gotten a credit or a replacement. Both of which never happend, just an excuse that's what they get and it's not their fault. Change their product description or it's false advertising is how I view this. I actually re sanded and refinished from what you see here as I had a conflict using an oil based stain (Minwax) in using a water based finish (Bona Traffic HD) even though I was instructed it was compatible...I would not and it peels ever at edges...probably going to be a 3rd refinish at some point, but holding up for a year or better now overall. The refinish aspect is very labor intensive for a single person. I had to re rent sanders and buy additional paper, my time and labor...that alone is another issue. I also based my stain color on a small can I purchased from Lowes, which turned out to be a return and not the color I ultimately purchased when I bought the larger cans to stain with...this whole thing was a jinx from start to finish...just glad it's over for now and holding up....but going water based stain with water based sealer/finish is what I should have done, I should have stopped when I realized the color wasn't right, I should have refused shipment....all my fault in the end.

I tried to resolve it, but they said it that the supplier told them that is what they get and they wouldn't do anything. Not what I was wanting, but was stuck with it at that point short of sitting in some small claims court and getting nowhere with a refund for who knows how long and holding up my floor from getting done. That's the problem with taking low numbers I suppose, but still no guarantee all said and done.

Yes, but you should bring it up to a level 2 finish first and wipe down any dust

yes it dries hard, like you would expect drywall compound to dry. Sandable. It's not meant to fill giant gaps or depressions....crack filler is what this is. I'd be leary of any thing beyond a 1/4 inch crack to fill.

I don't remember honestly, but doubt it given the rake exceeded 16 feet.

I was quite impressed that it could still remain in a stable/structurally intact condition for years of direct exposure. Just a little swelling, but 80 or more percent intact zero rot.

I think you'll like it, just be careful with the back tray, it's fragile!

I'm trying to do a nice job...on hold at the moment...digging into the hard wood flooring starting 2/15/2022. I have a challenge ahead for sure to get these 2 things done and done right aesthetically speaking.

There is surely dangers that are inherent for sure. I don't know about them sucking as there was no other way to lift the wall up short of having a boom or a crew to help raise it....this is the alternate choice when you don't have either. There's always a btter way when you aren't going solo or without expensive equipment.

R4041S model ...go to HD and type that in.

@@13612 thanks buddy I just brought the 7" one now I'm bringing it back for the one u have. I like that drop gate lol

@@delaliy545 The blade that comes with it is decent...I bought another ahead on Amazon for a back up, but the slate I was cutting....I was able to cut literally a sliver thin rip off without it breaking. I was impressed. Still have to do my shower yet....It's a nice saw, the pump looks like it could be the weak link, but they're easy to get.

@@13612 my brutha appreciate that

@@13612 just brought it today

Definitively....have your wall near edge of exterior when raising. I used short pieces of duct strap screwed to bottom of bottom plate and to floor to prevent kickout...

@@13612 Thanks - Will one jack handle a 2x6 wall - 16 feet long with sheathing attached?

@@johncraig3595 I did 42 feet of wall 10 feet tall with sheathing with 2 of them...I don't see why not if you are well centered....I had base plates and the safety part for the top so it would not cut free and keep going...it's easier the higher it goes or the load is shifting to the floor....I did have 1 of the 2x4's snap on the second long wall about 3 feet up...so don't get under that at any point during the lift!

That part is easy...just a lengthy process in comparison to this...multiple steps to get to a finished state.

Waiting on guy to connect water and sewer whichis about 10K here...one of the things I have been putting off due to cost and my not having a loan to cover that. Time is the other issue to work on it...I don't get much time to work on it. I should get my C of O this year if I can scrounge up the money for finish trim and the rest of the flooring. Wood is nutty over the top right now in price...

Thanks, this is the easy stuff I have been looking forward to doing.
