So what's up with the HDMI? So curious
Don’t you guys have walkie-talkies? I thought I saw some in your garage.
@evanandkatlyn i have a question : is it american standards to just run cables tru the walls like that ? i live in europe and we always must use pvc pipes to install cables tru a drywall configuration like that with things in mind of firehazard {wich your attic is in every way in my eyes bbut thats aside the point :) } , love your vids but just a sincire question.
@@thascarface There is no standard for the running of wires in walls through PVC pipe here in the US. Electrical wires on interior walls have to have a specified rated coating to them, and terminated end. You won't have a bare exposed wire in a wall. In some areas if you are running higher voltage wire you have to have a licensed electrician or contractor do the work, but low voltage wire like security system or PoE (Power over Ethernet) you usually don't. With that said there could be some municipalities that do require wires be run in conduit/PVC pipe depending on the application.
Hey guys why the switch????
Bought supplies for a project that you procrastinated on for so long that you lost them? Done that.
At least we're not alone! 😭😭
I've bought supplies to build a snake tank coffee table three time still haven't done it
black paint, 6 hours ago i decided to do a project i bought the paint for over 2 months ago. couldn't find the paint.
Bought a pressure washer after I moved into my house two years ago. Used it for the first time this month. Funny, my front walk and driveway didn't *seem* that dirty...
I have bought gold paint 6 times in a month because I forgot where I put it each time or my brother used it and didn’t replace it. Idk I probably lost it at least 3 times that month.
"There is nothing more permanent then a temporary solution."
Not sure who said that, but it's the truth.
I don’t think any other TH-camr could take such a simple and boring idea as laying ethernet cable. And make it so interesting and as funny as you guys did. This was gold and I’m so excited this is finally finished after the many months of talking about it.
Thanks Mr Nicholas! We did our best to make it a fun video despite being kind of a basic task haha. And YES so glad to have it done!! It's been thwarting us!
I agree! Haha, I clicked expecting a kinda boring video to put on in the background and it's been one of my fave of theirs now. XD
@@EvanAndKatelyn I needed to do this in my home but then I just installed a new router.... done
Mr. Nicholas have you seen Gabbie Hanna’s cleaning videos?
I’ve done a *LOT* of attic work in my house. Very early on I decided to install catwalks and overhead lighting throughout. Absolutely the best project nobody will ever see!!
I’m in your attic, it’s really nice
i'M IN UR ATTICK
Who's here after having seen the video where Evan falls through ceiling when they are upgrading the attic?
Mary Waters me
Meeeeeeeeeeee 😂 it was so funny!
Me !!!! ^_^
Yup lol
Me 😂
If you ever decide to make sweat pants merch, it has to say "I don't need fully functional pants for this job."
Haha yes! I'd wear those sweat pants!
We need those
I'd buy!
EvanAndKatelyn I would buy thoseeee please do
I'd buy that too!
E&K robbing a bank:
E: "This is a robbery!"
K: "Yeah! Stick 'em up!"
E: *Puts hands up*
Who else read E&K as EK as in reddits Entitled Kid
Kandy POP no one
@Savage Sharky 😂😂😂 yep that's pretty much how it would go!
Budget friendly!
“It saved my marriage!”
Haha I just love how Katelyn let that clip stay up for juuuust a bit too long to emphasize the awkwardness 😜
*not divorced*
Love your pfp
unrelated, pan pride fist bump!
Its a little bit of an oxymoron if you ask me......(I'm hiding from my wife)
These projects that makes your living space better without anyone else really noticing them are the most satisfying.
i started laugh-crying as soon as i saw "Office Hole 3?". the whole situation was hilarious up to that point but then it just got infinitely better
😂❤️
You guys should make real infomercials 😂
Also you guys looked so different in 2013
Haha we had SO much fun making it 😜 also so crazy for us to look back at our younger selves too 😊
Aren't sponsored videos just infomercials with production values?
I've said it before but the video game sound effects and music in your videos make me so happy :D
Haha thank you! They make us happy too
Omg I literally laughed out loud during the 'communication' part. This is the best channel on TH-cam...
Thank you!! 😁❤️
Same !!!
“I was just trying to impress you”
THAT MIGHTVE BEEN THE CUTEST THING EVER AND YOU GUYS REMIND ME OF MY FIANCÉ AND MYSELF AND JUST AWEH I LOVE IT
When they pull up the pink fluff un the ceiling all I can think is "they're harvesting house meat"
Mmm, medium rare 😂😂
Well thats one way to say insulation lmao
I was so worried the next video was going to be “Evan and katelyn patch their ceiling”. Hahaha
"Evan and Katelyn Search For Emergency Accommodation While Their Attic Is Made Safe". 🤣
haha not gonna lie, I almost busted it a couple times up there 😂😂
“Evan and Katelyn patch a pair of pants”
This was foreshadowing that we all missed
@@EvanAndKatelyn THERE OMG U TOTALLY PSYCHED YOURSELF 😂😂😂
Just looking at your attic brought back my childhood asthma.
Also, a thumbs up just for being an E&K video.
Haha I feel you, where's mah inhaler!?!? Thank you! ❤️
It also brought up asbestos for me
Mine never left 💀
I think my life motto is “I don’t need fully functional pants for this job”
It's kind of an encouraging message when you think about it 😂👖
you made a boring project extremely entertaining. thats alchemy haha
Thank you! The magic of ripped pants... 😹👍
lol it was kanda funny
the principle of alchemy- equivalent exchange, suggests that in order for this to be made entertaining an exchange of equal value must have been made i.e., loads of editor Katelyn magic and E&K being their fun goofy selves
As an IT professional, I was smiling all the way... proper instalation. People usually just throw wires on the ground in the ceiling :) haha Well done!
Office hole 3? Made me tear up from laughter!
hahaha thank you! At least others can get enjoyment from my pants 😂👖💔
“Things just look not wrong now”...very accurate for many home renovation projects haha
Haha! Just gotta do your best and hope nobody knows you winged it 😂😂
K: We did it!
E: Throw it on the floor!
K: We just got it off the floor...
E: ... Throw it on the floor!!!
Proof that Evan is, in fact, a big kid 😂🤣😂🤣
It's true 😂😂
"I don't need fully functional pants for this job."
I want that on a T-shirt.
😂😂❤️
I'm watching this after Evan fell through the ceiling and it's making me nervous
Haha! Makes us nervous too!
That small communication lesson was so freaking adorable! 😄
Hahaha! Thank you 😂😂
Ha Ha! My mom always said, “There’s nothing so permanent as a working temporary!” 😁
Haha wise words from your mom!
I'm disappointed in the lack of "Cat" puns considering y'all were running CAT5 cable. The beard made up for it though.
supurrvisor doesnt approve cat puns.
Haha opportunity missed!
the beard!!! yah :)
It is CAT6 cable, that's why... :S
I honestly think that the sponsorship of all of your videos are better than all of the ads on TH-cam. Great job!
"What sound does a bandit make?"
"You never should have come here"
Now imagine having to run cables downstairs in a two storey house with concrete floors and brick walls.
Its easier than this if you are lucky and your house have conduit pipes installed.
Y do they run it from the attic y not move the box closer to the pc
@@pikimiki3956I wonder if they ran conduit over 100 years ago when my house was built 😂
@@animationcreations42
my is not that old it's 66 and still have some original counduit from that time (electricity) all the others are from around 20 years ago when electricity and telecomunications was updated. But every time when you need to change some wireing its not much more effort if you install pipes, but it pays off when you need to replace or add something in future.
That's expert mode!
"I don't need fully functional pants for this job!" should go on a tshirt.
Haha I'd wear that! 😂👖
Or on some pants :)
I spat my food out at "office hole 3?" lmfao!
hahaha! thank you, thank you
I would literally watch you guys change lightbulbs…
😂😂 thank you 💡
13:26 I had never needed to terminate cables before but my friends relative needed help with a job and I needed money so I helped wire up an entire Kohl's store with Wi-Fi access points overnight. Aside from running wire through all the ceilings my job was to terminate about 50 of these ethernet ends AND keep track of which was which. I learned how to do it REAL quick.
OFFICE HOLE 3
I'm dead with you guys, you are killing me
hahaha 😂😂
What you just did I used to do for a living, for many years. Nice job. You pretty much did it the way a professional would do it. You were really smart to guide it along the rafters, rather than leaving it to lay loose. Really interesting tools for cutting drywall. Nice editing, great special effects, very entertaining written comments -- keeps it interesting. It is so amazing how such high drama seems to always hijack your "content". The happy face going up the ladder behind Katelyn was the highlight of my week so far. You are probably never going to do this kind of thing again, but for the record, it is OK to go across a power line, but never ever along beside one. The technical specification is keep it 24" away (especially from fluorescent lights); and no tight bends, just gentle round bends. I don't understand why you need a server? What kind of server is it? Thanks.
Thanks!! And good to know about keeping it farther from the power line. Lol the smiley face made us chuckle too!
@@EvanAndKatelyn I am glad I spoke up. I did not know if you knew about that. One more question: did you, by chance use "shielded cable"? OK, what the heck is shielded cable, you ask? Was there foil wrapped around the wires inside the sheath? If there was any foil then it is shielded cable. That may or may not cause a problem. If you ever have a problem there is something easy you can do that probably will solve it. The shield does not work as a shield until you ground the foil. Ungrounded, the shield acts like a giant antenna -- and radio signal or emf can actually disrupt or slow down your data flow, or even stop it cold. To fix it, all you have to do is ground the foil at one end or the other. Shielded cable is better than unshielded if you ground the foil. ..... I loved how you started this video. That was so fun.
Yeah if my husband and I were doing this together I think we would have killed each other! 😂😂
... and swearing. A lot of swearing 🤣
My sister is the one doing the wall paper in our family. You call her, she comes over. You let her rage and curse at the wall paper, the glue and your house with it’s weird nooks and crevices. You hand her the g*ddamn things she needs and just stare in the distance and say nothing. After a few hours you will have a perfectly wall papered house. And after a day or two she has cooled down enough to come visit and admire her handiwork.
haha! just don't spend too much time trying to yell at each other from the attic to the downstairs and you'll be fine 😂😆
@@EvanAndKatelyn I suggest walkie talkies... or bluetooth headsets next time xD
My daughter and I have been watching your channel for more than a year - love the content - but this was one of my favorite videos for some reason. Gives me the confidence that I can do it too! Thank you. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much! Glad y'all like the videos 😁😁
Me working from home during quarantine: "I don't need fully functional pants for this job."
I dare you to put it in your email correspondence signature, in italics, as many would put an inspirational quote.
Me working on home during quarantine "I don't need pants for this job"
If I went into my attic I would require riot armor a flood light and lastly a charizard
We could have used a Blastoise (to cool us down)
Charizard, use flame breath! (Cuts to outside shot of house on fire and someone staggering out in half melted armour)
EvanAndKatelyn More like a Frostmoth or Articuno. Lol (They're Ice types)
That opening is the best advertisement ever. Makes me want to build things now 😂
Hahaha thank you! Sounds like it worked 😂😂
Thanks Lowe's and Dremel for taking away our excuses to tackle this project 💪😂 Find the Dremel Multi-Max 50 at Lowe's in the tool world or here: low.es/2IVfhkx
You should do a project to make your attic look nicer! :O
Just a suggestion of course. :) I love your videos they are edited very nice. I laugh along with you two.
It's on our to do list! Thank you 😁😁
another awesome job done !
You guts should build a bed/house for your cat! That would be so cool!
@Ichiban Moto Thank you so much!
I love how you guys are so excited about the dremel and Joob is just like "box"
I watched your attic renovation before this, i was like nooo dont step on those boards in the back. So much foreshadowing haha
Haha oh man!
LOL, I don't have baseboards behind my couch!
It has been TEN YEARS!
Hahaha! We feel you. The quarter round in the entire house is just primed, not painted. Good enough 😂😭
@@EvanAndKatelyn Oy yea, my interior doors are also just primed, I mean white...
This was a HOLE lot more fun than attic work should be 😆. Great job!
😂😂 haha! Thank you!
I believe they made 4 holes
Just think
"I ripped my pants!"
*has spongebob flashbacks*
🎵 when big larry came 'round just to put him down... spongebob turned into a clown...
🎵 And no girl ever wants to dance with a fool who went and *SZZZZHHH* ripped his pants
This and your attic reorganizing (the one where Evan falls through the floor) are my most watched E&K videos. So... thank you...? 😂
"it saved my marriage"
........
"Not divorced"
Why am I laughing so hard?
"Office Hole 3?" IM LAUGHING SO HARD 😂😂
Haha 😂👖💔
You should do a video with Bob from ILTMS to do up your attic insulation!
Lol, I wrote a comment with the same thing! I just deleted it after seeing yours.
Haha we won't put Bob through that torture! Though we did do a video together about a year ago if you wanna see a collab :D th-cam.com/video/enOLfvg_2p0/w-d-xo.html
next project: attic window FOR SOME FRESH AIR BECAUSE DUCK YOU SUMMER
haha for real! it's dang hot up there! 🔥🚒🔥
I don't normally binge watch TH-cam channels but I started watching your videos 2 days ago and I can't stop watching. The two of you have become my favourite couple. You guys are adorable and have inspired me to start doing little projects. Keep up the work!
Thank you!
This is the first E&K video I ever watched. Good memories.
I loved the video as always but watching you guys in that attic made my eyes itchy. I can only imagine what was flying around in the air. Also R.I.P to your pants 😭
Haha! Yeah it's pretty dusty up there. Thank you for keeping my pants in your thoughts, they'll be fondly remembered 😭👖
hehe, RIP...pants...
i felt itchy whenever evan n kate are in the attic lolol... n i think kate does not change them out cuz its airy n much comfortable lol cuz i had holes in the pants before n i just let them be lolol
When a DIY video is masquerading as marriage counselling
hahaha! 😂❤️😂 just doing our best to spread the love and spread the internet
Omg guys!! I’ve only recently subbed to your channel and have loved it so much since then, thank you for replying seriously means a lot that you guys took the time! Have an amazing day over there in Texas! Hello from Canada 🇨🇦
The next attic project has to be insulation. That looks scary.
blown-in insulation (what they have on top of the fiber glass) doesn't have that bad of an R-value and its cheap. might be a bit unsightly but i bet it does the job.
Haha yup! FD has it right. Cheap, effective, and ugly haha! That's our DIY insulation job 😜
*BENNY HILL MUSIC*! HA!
@@lightwavz Evan gets repeatedly patted on the head by Katelyn..
Office hole 3 absolutely killed me. Your edits are hilarious
I'm running ethernet cabling for my cousin's house and stumbled upon this video. 100% subscribed now. You two are hilarious and you make videos fun to watch :)
Supurrvisor: what are you doing with my toy?
...that's for me k thanks bye 😸
E/K: we've put this project off for too long
*me, fully ignoring my neuroscience assignments:* smh guys just do it
Literally same but my lab reports
Hahaha! Hopefully your assignments don't make you sweat excessively and rip your pants
Your pants had one job, ONE JOB!!
😭👖💔😂
"I thought you said You've done this before"
"ehhhh....I was trying to impress you"
Relatable content.
😂😂
Dear Evan and Katelyn, thank you for being such a light in my life. You help me stay sane throughout all of the crap in my life. Thank you.
I honestly love watching videos the energy and overall vibe of you both is funny and interesting and somewhat? Educational? Lmao ❤
Thank you! Haha "somewhat educational" 😂😂
I'm too ethnic to go into the attic. I ain't about that demonic possession life. Good luck though lol 😂
😂😂😂
It’s usually harder to make me laugh but these videos truly put a smile on my face. Great editing and y’all are so funny together. Thanks for the laughs and entertainment.
The best thing about your work is that you do it together. Congratulations.
Thanks! We have a lot of fun working together
I never realized how pretty the wood of their floors is 😍
"office hole 3?" I CRACKED
Evan: "It saved my marriage!"
The text in screen : Not divorced!
Editor: "how many effects do you want?"
Evan and katyln: "yES"
Haha! And I (Katelyn) edit our videos but this still holds true
OMGGGGGG I DIDNT THINK THAT YOU WOULD REPLYYYY UGHHH BIG FANNNNN
@@andrey4707 at least they aren't like some other channels with literally every. Single. Fricken. Effect that they can fit, visually and audio. Their effects are nice and constructive to the video (and I'm not complaining or thinking your not a fan btw. I'm just trying to add to the comment and go on my own little rant lol)
@@Static3649 no this is in a postive way and not on a negative way i tend this to be a bad comment
@@andrey4707 I know. I was trying to explain that but I'm bad at doing stuff like that lol, sorry you felt I was calling you out of something
Man.. this is exactly my project that I've also procrastinated for 4 YEARS! Your video makes me want to take on this "challenge" but I don't think my wife will bother to help! LOL.
Thanks for sharing! That was a fun one!
Ya'll two are cute! And it's so great seeing this done by you two. I'm so going to do this when we finally get our house. Screw WiFi for our PCs, and we're so over the Ethernet cables ran through the apartments.
"Things just look not wrong now..." -E&K
This needs to be on a t-shirt... ;)
Seriously is the epitome of most home projects.
Haha I'd wear that!
You guys need some walkie talkies :o)
haha for real!
11:53 has me crying
😭 same 😭😭😭
maybe Lowe's can set you up with a nice solar powerd gable vent fan for your next project ?!
I love how funny you guys are, and your projects are so functional and/or cool looking! I can’t believe it took me this long to find your channel 😄
Thank you! 😁❤️
9:34 R.i.p Katelyn's pants! 😭😂
Omg that made me laughed out loud lol! I'm so sorry about your pants Kate. 😂
they would never know that just a couple of months later evan would fall throught the roof XD
When I watch this I get flashbacks of Evan falling through the ceiling
😂 if only we knew then what would happen!
Very nice and cleanly done. I’m a local 134 electrician in Chicago and I’d like to say you did a very professional installation.
Thank you!
this is what every project I try and do at my house is like, my attic is less easy to get around then yours lol
They are almost unrecognizable younger
Note self:beards are good deception 😂😂
Grow a beard, grow out your bangs, instant maturity 💁🧔😂
a keyhole saw makes WAY less of a mess than the oscillating saw. keyhole saws cut on the push stroke, so you can actually push most of the dust into the wall. i take a moist paper towel and hold it under the spot i'm cutting the hole and it will catch almost all the dust. and the OATH method helps for running wire too... 1 Pull on rope, O - OK ; 2 Pulls on rope - A - Advance,
3 Pulls on rope - T - Take up slack ; 4- Pulls on rope - H - Help
That lesson in communication! 😂 You guys are infectiously happy. X
Haha thank you! ❤️❤️
11:22 you can run a magnet down into the hole to help find the end of the fish tape.
There’s a blade for that dremel tool that cuts those boxes out in one motion, super useful when doing a lot of Low voltage runs
Rewatching 2 months later and it was still just as hilarious as the first couple times I watched it!!
😂❤️❤️
You guys should make an attic video where you clean it up as your next video. Would totally be down to see all that extra *fluff* be removed.
It's on our to do list to add some usable storage space up there! 👍😁
The fluffy stuff on the floor is actually the insulation we blew a few years ago (so it's supposed to be there 😋)!
EvanAndKatelyn Can’t wait !
This is so encouraging. I have been putting off moving our office because of running an ethernet cord. I needed to see this. Thank you thank you thank you!
Thank you! You can do it 😁👏👏
This is the newest toy from Lowe’s... it can cut things it can sand things, it can scrape things it can grinds things, oh and a bonus feature! The packaging can be a cat mansion!
Attic Remodel Series? You have enough space for a bonus room!
If we had space to add stairs to get up there we totally would! It is on our to do list to fix it up slightly to add more storage space but we probably won't finish it completely
EvanAndKatelyn even just covering up the insulation with Sheetrock (hell even plywood) would probably make a really big aesthetic difference!
“I don’t need fully functional pants for this job” so many T-shirt ideas.
Lol yes. That one I actually want!
Nothing is more definitive than a temporary fix !
haha for real! 😂😆
Can confirm that cables off the floor is the best feeling ever. Especially when it comes to cleaning. It's ridiculously satisfying to be able to just clean without lifting up cables all the time
Yes!! So much better!
Cat sees Dremel and is like "you mean I don't have to use my claws? Sweet!"
