Think we can hit 70K today? Let’s make it happen! Subscribe if you haven’t already. Today’s my last day on-site before calling it quits.. COVID-19 is NOT to be messed with. BANG ON..
framers who know what they're doing are fantastic. can't tell you how many dead valleys here in Colorado I see up on roofs that are just miserable for ice damning and heavy rain. awesome job!
Hey, there's a few things about that roof design. #1 That's an expensive roof. #2 It's time intensive. #3 That took some serious skill to pull off. #4 It's a beauty; it will look great when finished
Why is the trade protecting this skill so much? The compound miter cuts are tricky. I would like to see a pro like you show us how to measure and cut the angles.
Hey Matt, like that contraption tool (24:30) your grand-father came up with! If you don't mind I'll be holding on to that idea and might make one of my own.
I was wondering if you needed some ideas for some content would you dad be willing to do an interview type video about how he got started and maybe how he managed to stay a float during the housing crashes and maybe his outlook on the industry today from when he started.
Shalom Matt This same concept I used to flow water in my concrete slabs We make an indent ion it he concrete known as a valley gutter to channel water from a to b
As I enjoy watching you work - You have nice music playing in the background -Earth Wind & Fire (September) & I think next was Tears of Fear (Everybody Wants To Rule The world).
Great build Matt, we are into our second week of complete lockdown here New Zealand ! your videos help pass some time ! All the best to yourself and family ! be safe, looking forward to finish of this project ! Bang on ! or is Lockdown on now..........
The facia holding bracket looks very useful; generally for a single installer (smaller crew?), but can be used by all. I'm a new subscriber, so thanks for all the videos.
The sheeting under the first cricket was laid out different than the second.The first went 1/2 then full then 1/2 and seemed like more work. Secondly, in the bay area, we been shut down for over a week. No delivery and no city inspections.
Great job as always Matt! Just wondering why you don't use the G90 clips between your sheeting on the roof. With all the other Calif. building requirements, I'm surprised they aren't required. And thanks for answering my earlier question about the roof slope going into a vertical wall. God bless, stay well!
Great idea for hanging facia by yourself, might have to try it. Necessity is the mother of all invention. Alot of great tools have been invented by builders
Saw a guy balance the fascia with one hand from the middle. Use the nail clip magazine as a straight edge and nail the fascia right in the middle. Nail it on the next rafter and you are good to go. Your grandpa probably didn't use a pneumatic nail gun. Thats why he used that jig. Credits to the old guys. Imagine framing the old fashioned way. No power tools, hand nailying each piece of lumber. Take care!
Well that answered my question about 'what is a cricket' from the last episode. Seeing it done makes the explanation easier to understand. A cricket here in Australia is a bug.
@@MattBangsWood I am not a builder so it was onto the computer to read the building code and Australian standards and I couldn't find anything about a cricket. Anything else took me straight back to the USA. Anything I could find was just flashing. Thanks for replying Matt now back onto the next video.
Matt, on the cricket framing, is it necessary to go to the edge of the wall your looking to save from water leaks. Looks like you have a foot or more from the wall edge.
Hey Matt, nice roof, when we start sheathing the roof I switch to the hitachi coil nailer , it holds way more nails than the stick nailer, just sayin. You guys stay safe out there :).
You made a great video, and you seem to be pushing your job right along. I just stumbled on your video, and am wondering about your roof nailing. I didn't see you guys spacing the OSB, nor using a flush nailer on your Hitachi. Are you guys just running the compressor at 100psi?
All of our guns are flush nailers, integrated to the gun, not the cheesy little attachments. NR83A5’s. We space when we nail, that’s why we hand drive it all. Space sheets 1/8” from one another, side to side and up and down. 😊
Huh I have the same gun, it is supposed to set for faster depth. But I have had nothing but problems. I had to re-shear an exterior wall and re inspect it. So I always roll with that "tacky" attachment as you called it. Hmmm I guess you have it all figured out bro. That must suck, having nothing left to learn
Totally worth it. Most platforms have worm-drive style saws and as long as you can keep batteries charged you’ll be able to cut all day and not have to worry about a single cord
Only get 1 cordless saw, there’s no need for more. 1 cordless will help you when you’re on a lift platform getting moved around so you don’t have to reroute power and especially when doing roof sheathing. I don’t use cordless saws for when I’m setup doing a lot of cutting, like for studs and anything else like that. Because they do chew up your battery’s and eat there life away. It’s also annoying recharging batteries
If you have a cordless impact or drill on a makita or Milwaukee or dewalt get the same brand to stay on the same platform so you don’t have different chargers or anything like that. All three of those systems I mentioned all have good cordless saws
👋 Hello Matt Your grandfather invention tool it is an outstanding tool👏. It's, also part of 🦺 construction 🚧 history and valuable piece. 👍 Specilly a memorabilia for you & your family... Thank you for sharing that history treasure.🏅🏆 Sincerely, Mr Villalba 😎JV🇵🇷
That's a nice helper your gramps made ,, I cudda used that 30 yrs ago ,, Don't talk back ,Always ready to work , Don't have to pay him, Won't whistle at your daughter, i'm makin one , Thanks for postin,
I think he's using this. www.homedepot.com/p/SKILSAW-TRUEHVL-48-Volt-Cordless-7-1-4-in-Worm-Drive-Saw-Kit-with-TRUEHVL-Battery-and-Diablo-Blade-SPTH77M-12/311532271
Arent you supposed to use galvanized nails for Fascia board? I like that rig to hang fascia. My pops used to band 2x10-24' all by himself and i would look at him from the ground thinking dayum! He did Fascia for 15 years and he gets weak when he see's someone else doing fascia the wrong way. Lol. Good times driving 20D galvies all day! I learned to drive nails like that lol. Be safe!!!
I guess the only difference is that we would drive them with a hammer and not a nail gun. It was a big no-no to drive galvanized nails on fascia with a nail gun. Keep up the good work!
Good video however is it not compulsory to have edge fall protection in your country? Having worked in Australia and northern Europe the site would be shut down if ran like this. Only takes one moment of not paying attention or a strong gust to wipe those guys off the roof.
Doug Christopher I could be wrong but if the spacing is 24” on center they are required, any spacing smaller than that they are not required and the layout in the video seems to 16” on center.
Another great video thanks for sharing. Can you explain why you add an infill piece on top of wall plates between trusses? How is the roof vented at the sofits if it's closed?? Thanks
Single family residential, unless it’s a big development, flies under OSHA’s radar. The only exceptions are having the bad luck of an inspector drive by on his way to inspect something else, or pissing off an employee, subcontractor, or neighbor who rats you out.
I see now why you build the crickets later, it would make the trusses a nightmare! Will the house get roofed before work stops? I would be scared to death if my investment was getting rained on for who knows how long.
Think we can hit 70K today? Let’s make it happen! Subscribe if you haven’t already.
Today’s my last day on-site before calling it quits.. COVID-19 is NOT to be messed with.

Good videos
Stay safe Matt & Family & co workers
Best wishes from your neighbors up North in Washington.
i still gotta see if i got work on monday, this covid shit is really fucking everything up
Just noticed you hit the 70k mark. Congrats 🤘
framers who know what they're doing are fantastic. can't tell you how many dead valleys here in Colorado I see up on roofs that are just miserable for ice damning and heavy rain. awesome job!
From what I see world class carpenters runs in your family, yuor grandfather, your dad, and you keep, passing the torch.
Hey, there's a few things about that roof design. #1 That's an expensive roof. #2 It's time intensive. #3 That took some serious skill to pull off. #4 It's a beauty; it will look great when finished
Only a carpenter can come up with such a trinket.
I love the reference back to your pap. Its amazing to see the volume of things our grandparents did to maximize productivity. Way to represent him...
And today I learned about roof crickets. Thank you so much, I will be able to use that right away.
Please Matt a whole video about how to build the “cricket” ?, I’ve been looking for this for years. Thank you so so Much.!!!!
Why is the trade protecting this skill so much? The compound miter cuts are tricky. I would like to see a pro like you show us how to measure and cut the angles.
Watch entire vid
Join a framing company they can teach u lol crickets aren’t hard bud they are there to help water run off the roof
Proud to see you guys do insulation barriers separating your outside from inside. 24:00
Love the fascia hanging bracket! I’m going to have to make one of those for some upcoming work I have to do! Thank you
Hey Matt, like that contraption tool (24:30) your grand-father came up with! If you don't mind I'll be holding on to that idea and might make one of my own.

Shalom Matt
This same concept I used to flow water in my concrete slabs
We make an indent ion it he concrete known as a valley gutter to channel water from a to b
The title is hilarious, you have a great sense of humor
13:09!! Kool and the Gang! Great tunes!
....that's Earth, Wind, and Fire. 🤦♂️
for sub fascia, you could use the rail of the nail gun instead of square for planing the rafter tails to sub.
oh man! Love your videos. Wish i could build my own home doing what you do. looks amazing!
at 26:03 is that a camera illusion or is that roof turning?
ROPE UP !!
As I enjoy watching you work - You have nice music playing in the background -Earth Wind & Fire (September) & I think next was Tears of Fear (Everybody Wants To Rule The world).

Jiminy, that was a nice cricket.
This vid is addictive to watch. How do you know where to shoot the nails ?
Great vids Matt. Thank you from Spain.

And thanks for answering my earlier question about the roof slope going into a vertical wall. God bless, stay well!
Hey Matt, at the 2:00 mark, what are those boards sitting in between the trusses on top of the wall plate for?
Known as bird blocks. Used to close top of wall and tie the rafter down top plate with a35 clips
No plywood clips ?
Great idea for hanging facia by yourself, might have to try it. Necessity is the mother of all invention. Alot of great tools have been invented by builders
I do not understand when you speak I am French but I like you videos and courage.
Hay Matt and your friend you guys are doing a great job 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌😎😎😎🤙🤙🤙💪💪sweat

Wondered about that dead valley, when you were building it. I thought Oh Oh. Architect must have a solution.
Nice work.
Great job, I liked it a lot 👏🏽 Just left it like 👍🏾
Well that answered my question about 'what is a cricket' from the last episode. Seeing it done makes the explanation easier to understand. A cricket here in Australia is a bug.
A cricket here is a bug too. 😊
The framing is called something else over there, unsure of the name.
@@MattBangsWood We would call that a scotch valley down here in OZ

Ate those Denali 2.0 the best belt you have ever worn?
hey matt what brand of hoses are they
I need some
Matt , Whats The Name Of Tune In Opening ?
That's some slow motion work right there.
Matt, on the cricket framing, is it necessary to go to the edge of the wall your looking to save from water leaks. Looks like you have a foot or more from the wall edge.
I can be the kid that clean up the pieces of wood
this guy j always looks cool
Hey Matt, nice roof, when we start sheathing the roof I switch to the hitachi coil nailer , it holds way more nails than the stick nailer, just sayin. You guys stay safe out there :).
Hey bud where’s your harness at?
cool invention
Great video I’ve never framed a cricket. What is the shiny face on the roof sheeting? We just use regular OSB
You made a great video, and you seem to be pushing your job right along. I just stumbled on your video, and am wondering about your roof nailing. I didn't see you guys spacing the OSB, nor using a flush nailer on your Hitachi. Are you guys just running the compressor at 100psi?

Could you make a video on how to get into framing? Carpentry?
Nice video stay safe out there
So cal has been shut down for weeks, I am surprised you work this long.
Cool jig,a dead man for fascia boards
hitachi ^^ oldboy!
Hey Matt, how long can the framing and sheathing hold up uncovered in the weather? I always wondered this.
You usually dont frame without sheathing almost immediately.
After sheathed its fine for a few days. Quicker your dried in the better.
That was a pretty cool gadget your grandfather came up with.
I noticed that you've been going from corded saws to battery, I'm still stuck on the cord. Is it worth jumping over?
Get yourself a dewalt 60v saw and a flex volt battery. You wont be disappointed at anything besides the price
Totally worth it. Most platforms have worm-drive style saws and as long as you can keep batteries charged you’ll be able to cut all day and not have to worry about a single cord
Only get 1 cordless saw, there’s no need for more. 1 cordless will help you when you’re on a lift platform getting moved around so you don’t have to reroute power and especially when doing roof sheathing. I don’t use cordless saws for when I’m setup doing a lot of cutting, like for studs and anything else like that. Because they do chew up your battery’s and eat there life away.

That's the coolest story ever bro...tell us more

👋 Hello Matt
Your grandfather invention tool it is an outstanding tool👏. It's, also part of 🦺 construction 🚧 history and valuable piece. 👍 Specilly a memorabilia for you & your family...
Thank you for sharing that history treasure.🏅🏆
Sincerely,
Mr Villalba
😎JV🇵🇷
I would recommend getting a lift platform. It makes sheathing and sub facia 10x eascier and quicker
What are you using to sheet that? The sheathing we ya is plywood or mostly OSB but that’s shiny down which I’ve never seen here in Canada
Love the invention. I’ve done that alone and it sucks. That would make it suck less!!
Hi! What size OSB plate was used here?
Matt, is that SolarBord? A radiant Solar OSB sheathing your installing?
That's a nice helper your gramps made ,, I cudda used that 30 yrs ago ,, Don't talk back ,Always ready to work , Don't have to pay him, Won't whistle at your daughter, i'm makin one , Thanks for postin,
Afternoon Matt was just wondering what kinda coreless saw you where using on top of the roof?
I think he's using this. www.homedepot.com/p/SKILSAW-TRUEHVL-48-Volt-Cordless-7-1-4-in-Worm-Drive-Saw-Kit-with-TRUEHVL-Battery-and-Diablo-Blade-SPTH77M-12/311532271
stay safe brother - from Canada
The crazy framer does it all by his self and gets more done than a full crew, so no need to have anyone hold fascia, but then again he is crazy lol.
i wonder where all that excavated dirt went & how many trucks & cost
Nice one man tool
How thick is the roof OSB ? Do you not put clips in between the trusses ?
Solid framing. What are your thoughts on H clips? For sheeting
What type of nails do you use on the roof sheething? Are they twisted nails?
Arent you supposed to use galvanized nails for Fascia board? I like that rig to hang fascia. My pops used to band 2x10-24' all by himself and i would look at him from the ground thinking dayum! He did Fascia for 15 years and he gets weak when he see's someone else doing fascia the wrong way. Lol. Good times driving 20D galvies all day! I learned to drive nails like that lol. Be safe!!!
Yes'sir, galvanized nails for fascia board. For subfascia, non-galvy is fine.
I guess the only difference is that we would drive them with a hammer and not a nail gun. It was a big no-no to drive galvanized nails on fascia with a nail gun. Keep up the good work!
So Hchips aren't required? Your using 3/4" roof sheating?
I believe it is 19/32 so closer to 5/8". If you have HD quality at 3:43 you can see the side of stack.
5/8” sheathing, not required with it. H clips are a pain!
What is the purpose of foil on underside of sheathing?
Like your Grand Dad's invention.
Thanks for sharing your videos. I was wandering if you have an observation on how well reflective roof barriers work.
Good video however is it not compulsory to have edge fall protection in your country?
Having worked in Australia and northern Europe the site would be shut down if ran like this.
Only takes one moment of not paying attention or a strong gust to wipe those guys off the roof.
If walls were higher, yes. We’d need to be tied off.. Not at this height.
Hey Matt when sheeting the roof do you put those little metal spacers in between the sheets? Or is it not required?
Doug Christopher I could be wrong but if the spacing is 24” on center they are required, any spacing smaller than that they are not required and the layout in the video seems to 16” on center.
Doug Christopher most likely they are using 5/8 sheathing, then it would not be required.
How do you make sure your subfascia is straight? Do you eye ball it?
Que gran trabajo saludos desde chile
Hey Matt! Can I ask; where did you framing career all start?
Another great video thanks for sharing. Can you explain why you add an infill piece on top of wall plates between trusses? How is the roof vented at the sofits if it's closed?? Thanks
What size nail are you using for installing those sheets to the roof? Assuming 3 1/4 for most of the framing, but should you go smaller for plywood?
8 pennies
2-3/8”! 😉
Why not make those crickets flush with the gable peak? Wouldn't that be a bit of a shallow roof pitch, especially if it gets comp?
I never thought I would hear a Californian complain about rain.
How will the roof be vented?
There hasn’t been a time in this entire build that jay doesn’t have a cigarette in his mouth😂
Dude definitely smokes his paycheck away lol
What is the type of OSB your using?
That is a cool gadget for fascia board, where do I get one?
His Grandad made it
We only have the one set.. And we don’t use it too often. It would be cool to have them made though!
Can you email me some pictures of that one. My friends a fabricator and wants to take a crack at making one
1:00 no harnesses. 13:30 top rung of a ladder. Building standards must be so much more lax in the states

Estrutura dessas casas são muito diferentes daqui do Brasil
Hey Matt why don’t you guys staple off your roofs ? Here in Arizona we staple apposed to nailing it. Great video as always btw !! Bang On
Matt is Pikitis from Parks and Rec.
This is the best comment in TH-cam History.
You have to admit there is a resemblance! Haha
Hey Matt, loving the vids. You guys don’t use H clips for sheeting the roof?
I see now why you build the crickets later, it would make the trusses a nightmare! Will the house get roofed before work stops? I would be scared to death if my investment was getting rained on for who knows how long.
Never heard of cricket myself, we call them saddles in my parts.
We call them " Who designed this horseshit"
Crazy framer frames house alone
