Plumbing apprentice here in Aus and just ordered my first set of 18v tools from Bosch. GSA 18V-LI C recip saw, GOP 18V-34 multi tool, GDR 18V-220 impact driver, GSB 18V-85 C hammer driver drill, GWS 18V-10 angle grinder, GBH 18V-26 SDS plus & GDX 18V-200 impact driver/wrench combo that I plan to use as just wrench. Fair to say I should be sorted on power tools now. Hopefully no faults and last me a good number of years.
That Dewalt rear handle saw I find much bulkier and unbalanced compared to the bosch not to mention the weight .
Hey man. Are you a bit concerned about the moisture becoming trapped between the bottom layer and top layers of flooring? I know in NZ they had a huge problem with "leaky homes", where moisture would get between the joints in external cladding, find its way into cavities and rot your home from the inside out, even treated timber just rots out.
Love the channel.
Thanks legend 🤙
Ive been looking for a video on how to microcement over an existing sink...is it possible ? Thanks!
Love it mate, did you do any content on how you did your stairs? They sitting on road base also. Love the look mate.
Thanks mate. Yeah basically roadbase, gravel, shitloads of mortar. Backfill and work your way up the hill
Cheers mate, about to tackle something similar at my own place. 100% using the same bricks. Looks amazing.@viking.designs
these are so cool. what size timber did you use for the door?
Great video mate. Which app is that you’re using to sketch on your iPad?
Thanks mate. It's actually the stock note app on the Samsung galaxy tablet. It's old as bit still does the trick. 👌
Looks sweet. What size rafters did you use? 140 x 65?
Yeah it's 138x65mm design pine 👌
If you run battens horizontal it's important to drill holes in your batten to allow airflow (we used 70x35 battens, with a 15° top rip, 15mm hole every 300mm) since once wall insulation in installed, sarking is pushed hard against the battens and won't allow correct airflow and moisture escape. We used the 70x35 battens because we found that due to coastal environments, the 22mm battens swelled and warped. Great video mate! Love Matts videos too! I'm trying to see wether we should be taping our sarking joins or if that's overkill on Sydney climates
Yeah great point! We just used 70x35s horizontal for a job that were installing stria vertical cladding. We put 5mm packers in between the the battens and the wrap to create airflow. I also noticed James Hardie sell an FC option with grooves already in the back too. 👌 I taped everything up. Figured it's not much extra work and I like the idea of the wrap being airtight.
Thanks for the video mate. This is the kind of videos that is not easy to find.
Thanks for giving it a watch. 🤙
Is it in feet an inches too?
Sure is. Easy to change it in the setting menu
Ya know what else feels good in the hand?
Good bt too fast for me. You seem to explain the steps to people who already know part of it. For example, when you say you take the measurement for a room, I follow what you say, but when I pick up the first measurement with the GLM device, after choosing on the graphic I draw in my ipad the first wall , I hear a bip in the GLM device and it says " xx square meter". And the measure is displayed in the small screen of the GLM but the drawing on my ipad has not incorporated that measurement. I had to put it manually . I must have missed a step and I would be grateful if you could tell me what happened.
What’s the song called at the start?
Metabo hpt for 18v, 36v, the fact that their multivolt batteries function for both, and for corded as well because they have an ac adapter for their 36v tools. Bosch for 12v tools. Their 12v tools are literally the best pro grade 12v. They have some great 18v too
Appreciate it.
I am about to embark on the skylight replacement idea. I would love to see any extra images or footage you have of the process you undertook for this.
I’m sure it’s hard, but I just know I’m capable of dropping my phone down the box gutter
😆. Hasn't happened yet.
Thank you so much Dan for your help. Greatly appreciate it.
Hi Dan, what a beautiful van. I am currently renovating a 70's Viscount and love your ceiling. I was wondering how the shiplap is ceiled to the ceiling and does it contour to the roof curve? I really want to do a similar job as yours. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Hey Wayne, thanks mate. Yes, the shiplap curves pretty easily. Go to Bunnings and pick a length up. You will see how much flex it’s got. I just used 16 gauge brads to fix it to the meranti battens
turn the music down next time dude lol
Great job, just couple of questions. I have reclaimed pavors around side of my house. I put white sand in the gaps every year but grew moss and weeds in winter. I have now bit the bullet and put pave n lock in gthe gaps which will probably turn grey but weed free. I would like to finish with a glaze. Would you recommend this and suggest any product.
So glad you tossed the box, I’ve never understood unboxing videos, what’s the point.
Glad someone else is on the same page 😆🤝
So cool! I am really considering doing this diy in my bathroom! Wondering, is the gutters trouf something you can access to clean if it get grimy? Also I'm not gonna do a whole bathroom like you did but maybe repeat the material on the shower bench? Do you think the bench would need to be done before tiling around it? How do you think I could achieve this? Your video is so cool!!!
I’d suggest looking for a small strip drain with a pop out grill, similar to what you’d use in a shower. I think it would make cleaning a little easier. You could do the bench at the same time as the tiles.
Hey. Mate. How do you compare Bosch and Dewalt so far ? Appreciate
Hey mate. I honestly think nearly everything on the market today is solid. I have had issues with dewalt batteries in the past but I was maybe just unlucky.
@@viking.designs thanks. Looking forward to your next episode.
Thanks mate. Not too far off. 🤙
are you guys looking for any workers by any chance im a hard worker and i barely get shifts at my job
Love it ❤
Great video, would love some more of these videos. How do you know how much profit the business should make or what even is a reasonable amount?
Personally I don’t care one bit about power or speed. All tools have more power than I’ll ever need anyway. For me it all comes down to ergonomics, precision, accessories and smoothness of triggers and operation. I think I’m leaning towards Makita for these reasons.
Very hard to fault makita.
Where can I find that terrazzo stool? It looks amazing.Thanks!
We picked it up at Bunnings!
Is the free measure on app any good? What are the limitations?
This fella looks baked
I loved the reliability practibility & growing range of Bosch DIY tool range. I renovated my house from plumbing to electrics to carpentry - repairng, creating & building stuff over 8 years without any tool failing - amazing, But no more! I'm now doing all this across 200+ residentail student rooms & offices at work... welcome to Bosch professional tools! Just the same, but with innotive desgins & longterm power (& Bosch blue tells clients to perpare for the best!). Seriously, Bosch keep on growing in creativity, user focussed and sensibly avoid other manufactuers shortfalls without going crazy trying to be the 'best' for those (often pointless) on-line video tests.It's all feeling confident using your tools & knowing this feeling will be there again tomorrow, next, month year... bang on!
Great video! Thanks 😀 I wonder if you have a view on the pros and cons of the carbonised bamboo decking? There are a few products available in New Zealand but I can't seem to be able to find any independent advice on them. Thanks in advance!
How did you pick that template or builder to calculate what the total inn meter is?
What sheet did you pick on the Google sheets as your template?
Look at Bosch GKF18v8 👌
Hey just seeing how the awning is going and how it goes travelling? How do the support bars work on it do you remove them?
As a german, i can say bosch devices are trash.
Festool?? Or something else?
@@viking.designs Milwaukee or Makita
@@viking.designs everybody has a few Bosch devices at home, no question. They are doing their job but when it comes to battery devices for impact drivers, chainsaws and so on everybody uses Makita Milwaukee or something like this.
That is beautiful and very inspiring!
Ive had milwaukee, dewalt, makita grinder. My bosch is what I use everyday for tile. Runs like new. Switches blades easily. I like it the most. Its heavy duty, and reliable.
2 questions Does the speed square fit ok in the upper pocket of the 4 bag. The one you keep your phone in? And from the pics online the 4 bag looks pretty tight. Do the pockets open up a bit as they age?
Cracker video . Make another video in depth
looks great! love the recycled brick with herringbone
Nice video mate, first one I've watched. But why the duck you finding out about floor inso from a facebook group? We are professional trades men, we ask the kid at Bunnings how to do stuff...
Haha. Grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain’t 😂. Good first effort mate. 👍
Flappy disc budget is out of control 😆
Looks like a fun project! Great video! Love the idea of using bracing ply on all the walls
Thanks mate. Been checking your stuff out lately! Some great work 🤙
@@viking.designs cheers mate!
did you just use caution tape to hold up insulation on an elevated exposed floor ?
Just temporarily until we stapled it all in place
Love the danger tape holding up the inso haha, good stuff
Worked a treat! Way better than string line 👌
