Small, part time contractor in the upstate rural NY area.
I am a full time chemistry/physics teacher in PA - so contracting has always been a part-time side gig for me with full-time construction summers. I have been doing this since college started in 1990 with a little time off in the late 90's when I worked after teaching days at a hardware store and on a Nashville freight dock running a tow-motor/forklift loading trucks from 4pm to 10pm and all weekends. Needless to say, I was happy to get back to building things after those years!
Contracting these days is primarily kitchen and bathroom remodels for the larger projects and lots of smaller projects like decks and porches and siding and window installations and (and..and..) I also do one-off handyman jobs when the opportunity comes up.
I got started with TH-cam with inspiration from Ron Paulk and all the contractors out there with tool trailers and how-to's! This is my way to say thanks and add to the conversation.

With some investigation, I found 5 of the most used tools and NUMBER 1 is really not a shocker (at least to me!) - STAY TUNED for the B-roll footage for the last two which are really the NUMBER 1 tool.

FULL HANDYMAN List - Big Day - and NO motivation and $800 on the line

On the days when I do not have the proper motivation to get up and get it done as a builder and a sometimes handyman, I turn to my TH-cam Contractor and Handyman community to provide the proper outlook and initiative to grab some tools and make some sawdust and cross those items off the list! Thanks Builder's and Handmen community!! Hard to tell you how helpful your videos are on these kinds of...

ULTRA-LIGHT Plywood and SMART BENCH long term storage
มุมมอง 228วันที่ผ่านมา
I need to store the 11 sheets of 3/4" (18mm) plywood and the SMART bench kit I purchased in Salt Lake City, UT for a few months while I wrap up several projects and clear the calendar for a couple bench builds (from scratch using Ron Paulk's plans). When the builds start, I will be back for the bench kit and the amount of ply necessary to build a smart-bench. I think it is 3 sheets. Plywood got...
Builder Cheat Code - TRACK SAW for plywood and precision
มุมมอง 229วันที่ผ่านมา
What a blessing it is to have the right tools for the right jobs. While it is said "it is a poor workman that blames his tools.", still......it is really something to have the tools that are just the thing for the job! The track saw (any brand...any color) is great for a lot of different kinds of cutting. While primarily a saw to break down plywood in the field, it can do a ton more and all whi...
Contractor's SECRET STASH of Overflow Materials
มุมมอง 26414 วันที่ผ่านมา
Before I had the tool trailer and the the backyard shed, I had all these tools just piled up in my basement. "Hard to find" is an understatement for all but the obvious big tools and the "always needed" driver and drill. But....finding anything else specifically (think 1/4" fender washers or a torques bit) Good Luck! The trailer was an absolute game changer for organization and knowing where ev...

I would have a tough time going back to just plywood on saw horses. This Paulk Compact Workbench (MFT - multi function table) has spoiled me, I will admit it! BUT.....I now have the Ultralight Plywood and I have bought a pre-manufactured Paulk SMART Bench and the fall projects are looking exciting!
