Building a Big Custom Closet for My Daughter | Step-by-Step Transformation
Today, we’re building a brand new closet for my 5-year-old daughter. The closet will have 5 custom sections: 2 for hanging clothes, 2 with shelves, and a middle section with shelves and a small vanity area.
I’m using 18mm pre-finished birch plywood for the sections and solid birch for the face frames, finished with a clear coat for a clean, natural look. The height of the closet will be 93 inches, with varying depths based on section placement.
Watch the full transformation and get inspired for your own DIY projects! 😊✨

Adjusting Sliding Doors
มุมมอง 290ปีที่แล้ว
In this video, we will address three issues that are currently not working well with our sliding doors: 1. The current door setup does not enable the doors to fully open. This limits the available space we have to go in and out of the room 2. The doors don’t have door guides. Without these guides, the doors easily swing away from the wall. 3. The doors are missing handles

Any possibility to get the name, model and places to buy those components? Any reason to use 3/4" PEX vs 1/2" PEX. I live in Calgary, AB. Thank you for the amazing video.

  • @nareshanm
    @nareshanm ปีที่แล้ว

    Great Video! Thank-you. Quick clarification! I understood from the video that at the start, the incoming hot water was going into the wrong manifold, is that correct? In the final installed system, the hot water is shown going into the opposite manifold (the one with the non-white cap), which seems like a mistake. Can you please confirm if my understanding is correct?

  • @CurtisGurley
    @CurtisGurley ปีที่แล้ว

    At 1:50 you said the water would come out of the manifold at the regulators. At 2:10 you mentioned your pump pulling water out of the manifold with the regulators in it. Between 4:36 and 5:02 you swapped the manifold positions. So my question is.....does the manifold with the regulators get incoming hot water?

    this is the only video on internet explained diy system. thank you very much pieces switch sensor and thermostat, trying amazon..no idea: for my house next year 4" concrete electric boiler..no idea how to configure actuators wired up to open close??? what? 4 long sensor from each concrete zone hooked up to a switch box capable of connected to 4 different thermostats? what kind of thermostat? maybe they sell switch relays with 4 thermostats in and somehow wire each actuator to each thermostat and not the switch relay? then thermostat would open or close actuator. no matter what its always just one switch and 1 pump going on or off.??? it can't be that difficult. and WHAT ABOUT EXACT FITTINGS BETWEEN EACH COMPONENT YOU SHOWED??? IS it 3/4" pex or 1"? because the amazon boiler air scoop says 3/4" FIP. your video looks like 1" pex on the wall??? please list the exact connection pieces between each device. thanks

  • @codygocam
    @codygocam ปีที่แล้ว

    The huge problem with this is radiant floors in concrete take several days to heat up and cool down so your thermostat will make your house act like a wave up and down. This is why real radiant heater boilers stay steady and even have wifi to the weather forecast and adjust days in advance. Its best to use a tankless water heater that you can adjust to keep it steady.

    • @owg952
      @owg952 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm no plumbing expert but you're absolutely correct. A filter isn't meant to deal with the hard water, so putting the softener first optimizes the filtration process as well

    • @joshuahuber9668
      @joshuahuber9668 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No. If it doesn't filter "that", it isn't shortening the life of the filtration unit. A softener should be the last unit before entering your pipes.

    How long was the loop in total? I ask that because I want to understand the power of the pump. How long a loop can one pump run? I have a large floor area where I will need 3,600 feet of pex, which means I will need 12 loops. I wonder if I will need 12 pumps or if I can run all the loops with fewer pumps. Thanks for helping to answer the question.
