Happy 4th Timmy, one suggestion on the wood floor is to alternate the seams, so you don’t have a straight line going across the room more of a random wood pattern. House looking great.
I agree. If the seams aren't staggard, they pop eventually, and it will be a huge mess to deal with.
Amen! I don’t like telling folks how to do things but they desperately need to be staggered. Not only for strength, but it just objectively looks so much better staggered.
I agree.
Thats a must , stagger joints .
Bingo. 👍👍
It’s not always about what you know, but sometimes about who you know!
On your floor you must stagger the end seams or it will buckle up and cot you a floor i always do a 1-2-3 ft starter boards them the xut offs will be used to fill in other end
Was just going to comment the same advice haha
@@steveconzet3059 queer ha ha ha
Yeah! I cringed when i saw him just lay them down straight. Surprised nobody said anything
And be 1/8” from any vertical surface or that can cause buckling as well
You have to stagger the floor joints. That floor will buckle up on you if you don't stagger the joints and you will be replacing that floor soon. Love your videos by the way!!
Your friend has the best energy!
I agree……he’s absolutely fantastic
he's such a ham haha
We definitely need more Dustin content
Like Rick James said “ Cocaine is a hellofa drug”
Timmy, I’ll keep it simple. You have a great friend. Never forget that when he needs help.
Awesome video as always Timmy. Can’t wait to see your awesome cabin completed.
The longboard moving made this the BEST house video yet
I was like...get a floor jack...get a floor jack...to lift that stove. All coming together nicely!
That was an epic camera shot of the 3 houses
You're lucky to have Dustin helping. He seems like a good dude to know and have around.
Dustin is the MAN! Good to have buddies like that guy! Love the show Timmy!
Got to stagger your flooring so all your end seems aren’t lined up like you have them. 😬😬😬😬. House is looking good though. Happy 4th!!
The birds are seeing the reflection of the foliage and crashing, they make a film that is non reflective for the outside and it'll help immensely.
A few Curly, Mo and Larry moments with the washer/dryer....😂. The rocks turned out great around the stove, fun video to watch.
This episode was hilarious 😂😆
When necessity is the mother of all invention for sure.
House is looking great floating floors not supposed to be attached to the floor plus did you read the instructions and see if you can have a continuous seam I’ve laid 100 miles of that stuff and I’ve never seen it run like that. I hope it works out for you. You might have trouble in the long run.
Exactly this, you need to cut books so the seam stagers. Definitely going to get a creaking floor!
Loving the flooring but I agree you need to stagger the seams The cool thing about the flooring you have is that it looks like reclaimed barn wood,stagger the planks as if they are long planks of an old wood tree.
Happy Birthday America!!! ❤🤍💙💥
Your bro that's helpin' you with the house is a hilarious wildman!
Don't forget under lament get rid of squeaks and sound
Ha ha ! Thats what i said , before reading any comments ...
I found him annoying
@@MariE-go7ol My EX wife was pretty annoying.. 30 years later I still remember...
Dustin is awesome! Wish I had a friend as energetic and goofy as him
That mixed-color flooring looks really good! The washer-dryer move😮😳wow! Good to hear you're doing the big trip...👍😎🇨🇦
Only in Alaska do you move a stacked washer/dryer with a skateboard and a snowblower. Keep it up Timmy!
In the mud
The STACKED washer/ dryer ,easily comes apart. No need for all the DRAMA.
What you've achieved is amazing 👏
Timmy, the wall siding and rock stove looks great. 👍🏼🎉🇺🇸🔨
I have the same washer and dryer in my condo and it has been great for a dozen years!!
I admire your work ethic. I laid the same pergo flooring at my house. May be too late but you should alter the lengths of the boards.
Beautiful house its gonna look beautiful when its done. Great job
Please do not lock down the flooring. Even with trim. Those floors are meant to “float”. If you lock them down you run the risk of bowing as the floor changes temperature. I learned the hard way.
Excellent advice!!
@@lorid2092 and do not lay it in line pattern cross joints inline make it like chess board pattern...
Yes what is with the joints always stagger. Also laminate flooring like this sucks it always swells when it gets a drop of water on it. Even though I hate it, he should’ve went with luxury vinyl over this crap.
Why do you hate vinyl?
Looking good Timmy! I usually alternate the seams when I lay floating floors but if you like that seam running evenly across the floor than have at it. Really cool design for a house! That rooftop deck with that view! Wow!
Luv the colour of the bathroom tiles. 🧚🏻
You have nailed Rustic modern!
The house looks great , way to go can't wait till it's done.🎉
I’ll be watching you Tim! ❤💙🎇
Hey you!!! I’ll be seeing you soon!
Just buddies getting it done with a little creativity!!!! Awesome job bro 👍
A bit of advice for moving heavy appliances across the floor take a moving blanket fold it hotdog style put appliance on it and pull the blanket with your arms.
You need to put something that reflects in the window so the poor birds don’t keep dying. So sad. 😢 Your house is absolutely stunning. What a great joy to build your own home the way you want it.
Vinyl window cling. Looks black from outdoors during the day. Removable.
Wow ,wow, wow you got alot done in the inside wow looks so good last I seen was just framed walls
Hysterical watching you move the washer and dryer on a skateboard with a snowblower! I think you should buy a dolly to move all the heavy stuff. Wahaha!!
Fan from Thailand 🇹🇭 by way of Québec Canada 🇨🇦
Absolutely love love love the flooring!!
Very cool at the 26:25 mark, as mentioned, all 3 houses you've built.
💪Nice collection 👍🇺🇸
Awesome photo of your 3 houses. Hi from NZ.
Watching you build this house has given me an idea of what my grandpa did when he built the house my mom grew up in. I always heard stories and this has brought back good memories. Thank you
Nice to see Alaska in the summer
You are great. Your buddy is a jewel. Hilarious. So entertaining.
Dude stooooopppppp!!!! Unless that is how you want it, you are, supposed to alternate the length and seams.
Fireplace looks great 👍 It made me sad about the birds 😢 maybe you can get reflectors or decals to put on the windows to save a few lives 💙🐦
Agree ❤️🙏🐦 it will keep happening unless you do something about it 🙏
Your new place is looking awesome!
Looking really good Timmy ok thanks for the updates 👍 later
It looks like you could use a winch on that upper landing. Firewood, concrete buckets etc.
Could literally save your life during the winter
There is no limit to your creativity and ingenuity, Timmy! Truly a brilliant mind!
Lifting straps. Cheap and helpful for large items
In the future, when moving stuff up or down the stairs, you can put thick cardboard on the stairs and slide the stuff up or down it's much easier.
you've done great with the building but I'm sure others have pointed out, when putting down the flooring you should cut them and stagger the joints to eliminate it coming apart, you don't want them all lined up
I've never seen someone who owns so much cool stuff.
Great progress! Your home’s looking good …
Been installing hard surface for 40 years. You need to stagger the flooring. Otherwise it will all unlock. Now if you're only doing a square for the fire place cool. But the rest of the floor I would suggest you look at instructions
alternate title…”Building a piano on a banjo player’s salary” You picked a big project, but you will succeed.👍👍
Brilliant 😂🤙
@@TruckHouseLife. Stagger your boards on your starter wall Cut some at 2 ft 3 ft etc. you don’t want all your seems at 4 ft. The floor needs to all lock together. Think of a comp roof. You don’t want any end seem to be in the same spot. Love the channel. Your killing it
You mean Microbiologist!!!👍💖
Moving that washer/dryer combo was fun to watch. Just like the Egyptians built the pyramids. 😂
Stagger your flooring. Full piece ,half piece,quarter piece. To randomize the seems. It’s way stronger too, less movement for sure.
Dude you need to put down a foam underlay down helps with grit, warmth and noise. Also independently lay the laminate from the edge short, then next row long
Great date night brushing off the rocks 😂😂😂😂
Heyy Timmy ,everything is looking marvelous ,I like the stone on the arch the island and the stove ,I know it's going to be awesome when finish, thanks for sharing stay safe
Timmy you have some pretty awesome friends there!! Think you should have installed an elevator in the house!!!
Your place is coming together nicely brotha you’ve done an excellent job so far , really enjoyed watching your buddy lol the energy was real god bless keep up the good work my man
The longboard cart and snowblower combo was ingenius. Lol
You have some amazing people in your life. Yall are comical 😂
I love the wood stove base
Dustin needs his own YT channel- he’s hilarious! The rock work is beautiful. And the washer-moving was epic! Wonder if that’s how the Egyptians moved their appliances? 🤔 Loved this video! Thanks for taking us along, Timmy! ❤
Agreed!
This was some funny sh t the best part is you guys got it done... love the house builds ..
I have been flooring 25 years I would not have put the rocks over the flooring your installing and yes definitely 100% stager your seams bro… love your vids
Put some bird strike window decals on your windows and that will help.
Looking good Timmy
Damn. You got to stagger that flooring.
Awesome, looking good !
Fan From Texas
I love your ideas....and watching you bring it all to life.
new house build on the 4th- luv it
Really like how you use what you have, especially the rock from the creek for your Woodburner! 🌞
I can’t believe with all the material that you’re moving around during the construction of that place that you did not have a handtruck that you could’ve used to haul in that washer dryer. That baffles me.
I’ve had the best time watching you guys. If I ever build a house I want to hire yall lol
I’ve said this many times here but I love your house 😂
That place is looking great Timmy. Crazy how heavy that stove is. Before I sold my house I had to replace the aging over the range microwave. Well, it was only me so I grabbed the 2 1/2 ton floor jack, put it on top of the range and lifted the microwave up. Good fun. Anyway, great content and keep up the awesome work.
Why didn't you stagger your flooring? Darn alaskans! The stove and rocks look sweet
Dustin Rocks but I must say he may be a bad influence on you....(he is wearing Crocs too....OMG) ...Stonework on the fireplace is insane!!! As for the installation of the washer dryer....(Sketchy as per usual...who would have thought a snowblower and a long board would make for good you tube content....lol Cheers, Timmie and friends....your hard work is paying off in spades
All the cool toys you have I think you buying a big tire dolly would come in handy 😂🤙
That wood looks fantastic. My parents had their new home lined with wood all around the house rooms and it was fantastic... Stain worked well on it.. Brings out the woodgrain and seals the wood after Varathane
It’s a beautiful home. I live in Texas but got married in Montana. This house reminds us of the air bnb we stayed in. My wife and I strive to build a home like this one day.
Omg it's really coming together!! Your place will be so beautiful and cozy when it's finished!! Well done Timmy!!!!🎉🎯😊
Future reference if you need to move that stack washer dryer while it is still together without a dolly tip it to it back 1 person at the top 2 people at the bottom however they do come apart very easily then 2 people can carry each piece in 2 trips
Looking great. Happy 4th. Great video.
Probably already in the comments but you have to alternate joints. Different length for proper strength, durability and looks
Im surprised you didn't stagger the flooring. Love watching you and your buddy. So fun.
Hi Timmy, thought I'd mention that sometimes those long floor boards are staggered. Also, I love your channel!
Place is starting to look amazing love the stones around the wood stoves ❤
Theres soo many ways to do stone work im not even gonna say anything. But your buddy Dustin hes a wildman with great energy. I kinda used to be that way , at 53 yrs young life has slowed me down. You got it , you know what your doing. Butt keep a close eye on ole boy . We want him to keep all of his digets . lol
stove hearth looks great! you might want to stagger the wood planks for the rest of the floor
The Washer/Dryper combo portion was great. So funny
I been watching this for a long time- It's coming out really nice- You'll be glad you out so much into it
Ingenious using the long board. Are you sure your mate is not Australian? He’d fit right in here amongst the tradies. 😂
Happy 4th Timmy ! Can't wait to watch !
