Yea man, the more you run the squeegee on the tape the better it adheres to the duct, you can also add some mesh tape then mastic for a more strong seal.
Hey Sheet metal worker here, curious, if you used the same standards for metal elbows, would the airflow improve? (I.E a full throat elbow) Using the miter rise formula to get a full throat elbow on that 15" wide duct, you'd have to cut the throat for that middle piece at approx 11.5 inches instead of 3 inches. though maybe that's just not practical?
The staples are required to be on the closing flap of the duct board. When cutting an offset like in this video the the 2 tape tabs that I used to pressure duct together are by law from the duct construction handbook no staples are required, only foil tape that is code compliant may be used.
You realize you could have taken the number 6 cutter and went around your lines and it would have made the one inch tab all the way around so when you connect it you dont have to fight to line it up you did that way harder than it had to be
Mexico is sending their best. Great tutorial man.

You sir are an ARTIST.

Grasias.
can this be done with sheet metal?
Yes, its the same with sheetmetal except you have to account for 1” on all sides to allow for the slip & drives to attach properly
Thank you so much 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Do a 45 next
You said staple, but I didn't see where they went. Isn't it required to be stapled?
The staples are required to be on the closing flap of the duct board. When cutting an offset like in this video the the 2 tape tabs that I used to pressure duct together are by law from the duct construction handbook no staples are required, only foil tape that is code compliant may be used.
Does this work the same way if the 90 is on the shorter face of the duct?
Yes, as long as you use a 22.5 degree template or speed square marked at 22.5 degrees.
You add 1 inch flange to have the pieces together with tapping screws or do only S’s and Drives ?
Sir I am duct fitter you have vacancies tell me
