Okay as a home decorator I did a jungle room for my son. He loves safari animals. I did this really cute safari animal wallpaper halfway up the wall, upper wall painted sky blue. Leaf trim for border and I’ve been try to figure out how to do a simple grid for the ceiling to hang vines and his favorite stuffed safari animals. Thank you! You helped me figure it out with the j pegs, supplies and instructions.😊
I used a similar lift to install sixteen 16’ steel panels on a 12’ 6” high workshop ceiling this past week! My wife and I did most of it ourselves, I’m 70 years old! Without it the job would have been nearly impossible! Other than lifting the panels up onto the lift, I could have done it alone. I had to built an extension rack to add about 18” of height because the lift came up a little short! Thanks for the detailed video, I saw it a little late to help me out!
@@pete7894 I called my local lumber yard and ordered it. They said that there is a special material some people use but I believe I used regular roof metal, whatever the standard gauge is. It worked out great because no extra framing was necessary to span the 4’ between the trusses. Be careful and measure carefully or chalk line so your screws don’t miss the truss. I eyeballed them and missed a couple times! Good Luck! Thanks for Watching!
Nice video! Of the two garages I’ve installed metal, it’s more helpful to screw off next to the overlap rib instead of the midpoint between ribs. This ensures your overlap rib is tight to the profile of the adjacent panel. That way no sagging can occur and if there is a slight misalignment of panels (say 1/8”), it’ll cinch the overlapping ribs tight.
You are welcome. All of my videos are geared towards helping out the DIYer. I feel like it is important to add as much detail as possible in these videos. I appreciate you watching!
Safety is important to me. Sometimes when Im in a hurry, I sometimes forget to wear them but I try to keep them on when working over head. Thanks for watching!
Hello Sir. I'm going to see if I can participate in this live broadcast. Since my back surgery I have to make sure I do what I have to do. I can always watch it later. Love these type of videos. I know it will be great as always. I also like participating in the live broadcast because of questions and answers and sometimes I might have a suggestion as well which always helps along the way with anybody. You do a great job sir and I'm glad to see the new year starting out great. 🔨🔨👍🏻👍🏻
I'm really glad I found this video. Explains in really good detail how to do this; I have to put up the ceiling in my 38.5x48' shop before they can blow in the insulation. Do you happen to have a video on installing interior metal siding also? :)
Excellent work, excellent techniques, very practical tools, and really nice “time lapse 🎼 music”. … Just goes to prove, that when projects are well thought out beforehand, the execution can be “time-saving” and the results can be rewarding. 👍
... Nice work👍💥 And yes, measuring the different distances to defined. One number that works for them all is perfect bro👍 Thanks for sharing I New to your Channel, I look forward to hear from you by for now, Ken
Hey, Just what I needed. I have been dragging my feet about getting a lift as I didn’t want to buy something that didn’t hold up or be difficult to operate by myself. I liked this one. The chain is what did it for me! I like how you improvised to accommodate the longer steel. After I complete the sheet rock job in my house I can tackle a ceiling in my barn. Yeah, those platforms are great for fastening the ceilings. I have one and it was so helpful putting up ceiling planks. I was not about to work off a ladder! Hey, are those power snippers attachable to different brand tools? I have Milwaukee tools. Thanks a lot
This chain driven lift is really nice! I would highly recommend it. Yes, those powers snippers that you were talking about Will attached to most tools. I think it’s engineered mainly for the Dewalt but I got it to attach to my Ridgid. I hope that helps!
Hey man love this idea for ceilings! I'm a new contractor and was curious as to where you get your house plans from? And advice on what to look for in a house plan?
Couldn’t you flip the panel over after the pilot hole and cutting through the ribs and use the same pilot to finish cutting the hole? And what is the max height of the lift. I appreciate you putting this video up on installing roofing metal as a ceiling.
Good video! I am at the stage in my new shop where I'm almost ready to install metal similar to what you have done. The difference is that my trusses are on 4-foot centre's instead of 2 foot. I plan to buy what is referred to as tough-rib (reasonably sturdy ribs but only the cheaper 29 gauge and not 22 gauge) panels in the hopes I won't have to strap the ceiling with 2 x 4s first. Here's my question to you and your readers: Do you think the metal ceiling will sag and look stupid if I am only able to screw the metal every 4 feet?
Sorry, let me ask a little bit. What is the function of brown paper or cloth and is between the wood on the roof? Your work tools are complete enough to make your 👍 work easier
Maybe I missed it but I was wondering why you insulated the roof part of the outdoor kitchen area. Was there a reason that I am missing? I wouldn’t think the insulation would be helping anything with the three sides being open. Thanks for another video. Great job as always.
Thank you. Good question! I have finished space above the outdoor kitchen. I could have saved some insulation and just insulated the 12 foot section in the middle, but my insulator recommended going from outside wall outside wall. I hope that helps!
I looked up the price for the Panellift - model 439 - you are using in this video and at Lowes it is priced at 1660.38 and at Home Depot it is priced a little cheaper at 1299.99. Still expensive for what it does. Two people should have no problem lifting and installing metal panels the size you are installing without using a lift. I installed metal panels on my house by myself on my own without any problems other than the metal panels being bulky. Also, where is your vapor barrier between the metal panels and wood joists ? I would be afraid of mold and/or wood rot from condensation you can get with metal without it. Finally, where did you buy the metal panels from ? Thanks.

It's so incredible
Again, you are helping us DIYers look like pros. Thanks for the videos
I try to help as many people as I can with these videos. I am glad you’re finding value in them. Stay tuned!

What style metal did you use on your ceiling, PBR etc. ?

Every aspect of installation is nicely addressed, including safety glasses!

Thank you for this video. The hole cutting tool alone is helpful for my project! Appreciate it!
That tool is awesome! I’m glad you found the video helpful. Good luck with your project!
I just bought that sheer attachment... thanks for the tip because that's the difference in material waste
Hope you like it! It did a good job for me!

I like how you did the inside corners for the J-Channel, but how would you do outside corners?

I would have to buy extra sheets for the ones I measured from the wrong side for the holes. Lol. Great job
My thought exactly. Measured twice and make sure it is right! Appreciate you watching!
Thanks for the videos.....excelent
No problem! Thanks for watching!
Who was the manufacturer of the metal?
Turned out Great!
Thanks a lot!
Great video! So informative and interesting.
Awesome and instructional! Thank you sir
You’re welcome. I appreciate that!
Sorry, let me ask a little bit. What is the function of brown paper or cloth and is between the wood on the roof? Your work tools are complete enough to make your 👍 work easier
I’m new to this and have learned a lot, but why didn’t you use a vapor barrier?
Maybe I missed it but I was wondering why you insulated the roof part of the outdoor kitchen area. Was there a reason that I am missing? I wouldn’t think the insulation would be helping anything with the three sides being open. Thanks for another video. Great job as always.

@@TheExcellentLaborer thanks for the reply. That makes sense to me now.

Is that PBR type metal or what is that you using called ?

How thick were the panels?
Looks great..!
I would have laid the recessed lights out so they want on the ridges of the metal. The can time would look better.
Yes, that could have been a good tactic if the layout of the recessed light was an option. Thanks for your input!
Why have paper backed insulation if you aren’t going to use it properly?
Great job awesome video!
Thank you. The Panellift was a HUGE help!
Excellent
Thank you!
Looks awesome but next time definitely would’ve slid those lights over a few inches to get it between the ribs
Why not trim screws? Wouldn’t those nails risk coming out over time
I have not had an issue with that. Trim screw protrude down so if you use those, keep that in mind. Thanks for watching!
Condensation/ leading to mold issues.
I finished my first home build diy, thanks to you brother thank you so much
That is awesome! Stay tuned for more videos to come!
@@TheExcellentLaborer always keep grinding you gave me the confidence to get it done, took me a little over a year but its done , on to my next build
Put this sheet up!
👍🔨
Thanks Charles!

⛔️ More expensive than wood. ? ?
I enjoy your videos but please use your “helpers” name rather than “my helper” would make it sound more professional 👍🇺🇸
