What NOT the do in 2 seconds

When I prepped for sanding I first removed all glue and crusty finish. I used only 1 drum sandpaper of each paper. That saved. Ne a ton but took forever on hands and knees

I rented my sander on Saturday morning and returned monday at 9 am. They only charge one day

Best video I’ve found on TH-cam for a beginner such as myself! Thank you so much and thank you for basically taking the time to answer everyone’s questions even the silly ones that asked about how you saved $4k, where you got the equipment, etc. Plus, you have the chapters with the timestamp breaking down every step and the cost. Fantastic video and thanks again!! New subscriber here!

5000 for a 150 square foot room? Really?

Good stuff thanks dude!

Excellent video; thank you. Recently purchased a 1950s house in West Vancouver, BC. We just peeled up some ancient w2w. I think we're looking with cedar here. But I just want to salute you and your comment section. I bet many of you are young w limited budgets, et c. and you are so wise to embrace the original, natural materials. There is no substitute for wood in the form of laminate, manufactured or that god-awful toxic LVP junk. Not only is actual WOOD better for your health and that of your kids, pets, et c., it lends an atmosphere, and ambience - even a fragrance -to your home that LVP will never. (That floor is gorgeous.) We need to work with what we have because it keeps the cash in our pockets and nothing today that is cheaply made and mass-produced comes close to what you will have when you restore, upcycle, reuse and repurpose. Same goes for your windows. The industry wants you shelling out money at every turn.

Good stuff !

Gorgeous floor wow. can you tell me what type of stripping you used?

My house is from 1940. The foundation is causing my hardwood flooring to separate. I'm going to do what you did and see what happens. Wish me luck!

Started my journey on Nov 3 when I was accepted. I agree, do not make crap videos. Quality over quantity. And like you I get lazy sometimes and know I should be making more videos than I am. I am following along. - Shawn

Great Video! Ive been reading and watching DIY for 3 decades. I have NEVER seen the tip of the slight angle on the first sanding.

How many sand paper did you used in this room from each number?

In 2023, I faced a significant issue with my 24-inch, two-stage snow blower when I took it in for warranty repair. The service team at Home Depot informed me that they would no longer provide service for Ryobi products after 2023. I was shocked! I own various Ryobi items, including large equipment and hand tools. The representatives mentioned that there would be an option on the Ryobi website to find authorized service locations for my equipment. Fast forward to 2024, and my same two-stage snow blower is now experiencing a problem with the rear drive motor. After searching the Ryobi website for assistance, I noticed that no Home Depot locations appeared as service options. I now realize that I’m stuck with this issue. Initially, I loved Ryobi so much that I bought a brand-new two-stage Ryobi snow blower to use while the other one was being serviced, planning to sell it afterward. However, after reflecting on the situation and considering the possibility of the new one breaking down, I decided to return it to Home Depot. I then purchased the Ego POWER+ 28-inch two-stage snow blower. The reason for this choice is that Lowe's will provide the service and warranty repair work if needed. The Ego snow blower comes with a five-year tool warranty and a five-year battery warranty. Additionally, I could buy a Protection Plan that starts after the five-year warranty, which includes pick-up and delivery service. You can say what you want about the cost of this machine, but I want what I want, and that’s final because I am not going back to Gas.

Hi what type of buffing pad did you use after the first coat?

Nice😮

Wow so many helpful tips! Thank you. I wish i could hire you though

The reason people covered the hardwood floors with carpet is because back then if you had carpet you had money! Wood floors meant you were poor, or lower class!

Love your content! Thanks for all the info. Not sure about your other viewers, but I was surprised when I received the email saying only 3 vids from the recent vertical vid promotion were eligible for the $75 payout. I made 26 videos & was careful to follow all guidelines. What a scam on Amazon's part. Is there any way to actually communicate with someone from AMZ about this? I bet a lot of other influencers are also feeling burned. I'd love to hear from others with similar experiences.

Hello could you tell me the exact product you use here to fill the gaps ???

I have watched quite a few videos on this process, and thank you for the detailed explanation on sanding diagonally. I also don't want to add a stain to mine and just do the satin finish. THANK YOU!

Great looking final product. Water products tend to "raise the whiskers" on sanded wood projects, but I'm wondering if it would be worth going over it with water and buffing it prior to the first coat of finish? Hope the rest of the project went well!

People put carpet down on wood floors because it was warmer, thats why.

I like the other way by using the saw dust..do you do that?

Ryobi doesn't adhere to their warranty and they lie to you. They use a third party. The first time I called they said they were sending me a shipping label.. It never happened. The second time I called a month later they said they were just going to send me a new item... It never happened. When I replied to their email it bounced. The third time I called they said you need a paper receipt for something that I bought 3 years ago even though I can prove I bought it at Home Depot with my credit card and Home Depot account. They are just trying to not adhere to their warranty.

I had the EXACT same issue with them but did drive 70 miles each way (4x, there & back drop off/pick up) only to have the issue not fixed. My 40V push mower's battery was stuck in the unit and wouldn't come out. 4 months later, I'm still trying to get it resolved. And like you, I have multiple tools from them, like all my lawn & yard maintenance.

5 grand for one room?

You are doing a great job!

Thanks for all the info. It's a really good video.

Great tip to keep your setup. Thanks for being so humble and transparent. Hey, any free money for not working is a Win!

I have Facebook page with 12k followers but Amazon influencer account is not meet requirements what i can do?

Those are some amazing results! Do you know what kind of wood that is, it's really nice!

I took my weed eater to a service center it was a old house with the son there he did not know anything. He told me call back in two weeks it has been two and a half months they do not answer the phone never buy Ryobi customer service do not exist.

I’m actually glad to see how well the commissions kept rolling in even without adding new content. I mean passive income is the goal right? 😆 August and September have actually been my best months so far, but that’s because I’ve been adding seasonal products that people are looking for in these months. 👍👍👍 on having a dedicated filming space that stays set up. It’s about the only way i can keep up with it. Thanks!

That's alright bro! August is always a ghost month for most business. Been watching your content since I just started this Amazon Influencer... got 30 vids on my first week. Hope we get more views and commissions! Lez do this bro! excited for the holidays sales! I totally agree bro! There should be a space just for making videos.

Keep it up 😊

TY!!

Wow very useful! Thank you!

The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Glad you were able to get this resolved. I would think that Ryobi would be far more customer friendly in dealing with problems, as that's the correct way you build brand loyalty.

Great advice!

We’re in the process of doing the same in a house built in the 60s. The padding is really stuck down to the hardwood in spots. We’re getting the majority but there’s still some that just won’t scrape up. Any suggestions? Will the sander take it off? Or is that not recommended? Great job by the way.

...mmm and no cracks or gaps that would need to be filled in in that entire room ??? You got LUCKY

So I have the Amazon onsite program for me. Paid Commissions. I am doing videos with just me in them now. Or me only doing voice overs for the products. So my question is this: I mostly do outdoors or fishing stuff products. But say I wanted to make a review video for the program over say women's shoes or a pair of women's clothes or a hand bag. Could my wife do the review and then I just upload that video? Or is it only me who has to be in them or on them? Or should i say "hey this is Drew and my wife Kelly is going to do a review over ______ Blank product?
