As a contractor i already know a decent amount about the trades. But Paul is full of great knowledge that needs to be spread. Its an honor to watch you guys
@@codybersicc7939 I wonder why. It might shrink on the side dimensions depending if it's had time to dry. Not significant. I don't think there is any shrinkage vertically to speak of.
I love me some Stud Pack videos! I'm a DIYer and what Paul has taught me the most is how to deal with obstacles during a project. I used to get anxious and sometimes overwhelmed when faced with a dilema. Now I know it happens to everyone and I've learned to take a step back and take my time to analyze all the possible solutions.
I love this! Good advice for DIY, career stuff, and life in general. Step back with the perspective that you know there's a solution and you're going to find a good one, maybe the best one!
I've been watching for a while now, before the Stud Pack Dream Garage started, and every time I think two things. One, these boys appreciate but don't know how lucky they are to have Paul. And two, Paul is an absolute beast. Keeping up with this youngsters and leading the charge every single day. Total bad ass.
Several people in various videos have mentioned how lucky Jordan and Rab are to be able to learn from Paul (as are we all). The one who is lucky on this build is Summer. Even aside from the cost savings, how lucky is she to have such an experienced pro like her dad, who has even more of a vested interest in making sure the remodel is done right? Pretty dang lucky, I'd say.
They'll be at a million in no time! Great projects and great videos. Really one of my favorite channels on TH-cam. It's really tough waiting for the next video to come out, that's how good they are.
Check with your AHJ, but those long stub ups of copper that you used for securing aren't legal in my area anymore. The air dissolves out of the air chamber sooner than you think and the dead end of pipe becomes a breeding ground for legionella. May want to look into it before closing up the wall.
Another thing you could do for the sink is if you are buying a house and remodeling it get a utility sink like the kind you use in laundry rooms and use that until you get your other sink hooked up then when you are finished put it in the laundry room
Demo is always the best. Most fun, you get it all cleaned up and think "gosh, this looks so clean and nice......................oh wait, now I gotta put it back together again??"
I always like finding stuff in the walls. One of my favorites is the perfectly preserved newspapers from the 40s and 50s underneath the linoleum floors. One time I found about 30 years worth of razor blades in a stud bay in a bathroom. The medicine cabinet had a slot in the back to drop your used blades into. A couple guns. Lotsa old coins. A wad of cash in an envelope behind the backsplash in the kitchen. All sorts of stuff.
Loving the step back into remodeling. Forgot how much I liked watching you all tackle these challenges. Excited to see the dream house build too! Thanks for putting in all the effort to create your content.
The garage build was interesting to say the least. But I enjoy your demolition and remodel videos. I have learned so much by subscribing to your channel.
I thought for sure you were going to have to move the range and range hood. I did NOT see how you were going to duct this - but I didn't think of cantilevering the weight on the load bearing wall. Thanks for the lesson - I love learning new stuff.
@17:17: Really glad to see those materials get reused vs. piled in a dumpster. In the future, carry those slabs on their sides. They crack easily under their own weight when carried flat.
Actually got 16' of almost identical countertop like that. Cut it up and one went to fish cleaning station, one piece to a front porch table I built, couple small pieces to sharpen chisels and knives on, one piece is my computer desk now. Good scraps for free.
That was one of the things I always hated about all those "remodel shows". They'd just chuck all the old fixtures into a dumpster onsite! What a waste. I really appreciate you ADVERTISING and actually selling / donating all your old fixtures to someone who can use them.
Another awesome video! Thanks! That temporary sink base was genius… I’ll be using that later! (I’m sure someone will grab those upper cabinets for a shed or garage too; nice y’all left the leftovers so others could be blessed.) 👍🏼
Making sure your kitchen sink with a disposal actually works with your drain as well. Wife wanted a deep kitchen sink and it ended up not fitting with the disposal. The drain would have always had water in it. Not good for the disposal. So no disposal. :). Easier than ripping out the wall like Paul did in the garage build to move it.
Thanks for the shot of mo, working on a bathroom remodel from the ground up, life is getting in the way of progress. Hired out plumbing and electric, marching on.
When you were talking about the room around the refrigerator, it took me back a few months on my minor remodel. All we did was take out the 1953 linoleum and replaced it with tile. Moved the refrigerator out to the living room while we were working. Buying a refrigerator for our house is unique. On the right side is the pantry cabinet. On the left side is bricks from the back of the fire place. And there is a cabinet above it. When we brought the fridge back in, I got a little scared as I thought that the fridge wasn't going to fit. Besides the height of the tile we had also put in a new subfloor. Fortunately, the fridge snuck under the cabinet by an 1/8th of an inch. But since nothing is square and level in my old house, one of the cabinet doors wouldn't open up all the way. So I had to do a little shaving down on the door to give it a little clearance. Touched up the stain and no one is the wiser.
The house I grew up in was built in 1951 and when my mom would wash the dishes in the kitchen sink, that water would start coming up the bathroom sink drain. The whole house remodel in 2009 fixed that issue. The re-modelers didn't have to replace ANY of the studs as they were completely petrified and in excellent condition. As a plus they were also completely fire resistant due to how hard they became. These studs were over 50 years old and as hard as a rock. Also it's nice to see that you tried to save as much of that countertop as possible and let someone else get more use out of it as that stuff is not cheap. Also like that you are reusing any of the good stud pieces you took out. That can save quire a bit of money.
My dad has plywood cabinets in his house and all his upper cabinets are nailed thru the top including the one over the peninsula and I'll tell you that was the hardest cabinet I've ever removed we had a 3' pry bar and it still didn't want to come and it probably had 200lbs of stuff in it since 1964
Love the back to back videos. When I did my kitchen, I just kept the original sink base with a piece of counter. Left it loose from the wall and just slid it back in at night to have a sink
Man i wish I had builders like you guys in my area. My house was built in the 60's and if someone was upgrading something built in the 90's I would take it in a heart beat.
To be able to work along side of a man like Paul would be a gift! It's great to watch him teach his kids and son-in-law the tricks he learned over a lifetime. Way to go everyone!
I love the dream house build but tbh I love the retro work just as much. Would be great to keep both going instead of just one or the other for months at a time .
Leaving that kind of trash under someone's cabinets would keep me up at night. Nothing more satisfying than vacuuming up all the small construction debris.
hope the fan on the down draft range is strong enough exhaust the air most refrigerator manufacturers ask for 2/3 inches of room in back for proper air flow
That really is crazy that only those nails were holding up the cabinets. Not even a few screws! They are lucky it didn’t come crashing down on them. Great video and tips sprinkled throughout. Was wondering if you considered an LVL post instead of the standard 4x4 for handling the load? The LVL has a higher load capacity.
I knew when I saw the perkins brothers vid earlier and you guys had a promo code that I'd be seeing you rocking those belts. They look amazing for the price. Unfortunately I already have way too many belts lol and my custom one can't be beat for my needs.
I’ve had two homes with downdraft vents in an island and they basically don’t work (replaced both with vent hoods). It’s your house of course, but really think y’all should rethink going with a downdraft.
Another great video for sure. Paul just is full of knowledge & great to see he is sharing it with everyone. Also great to see Studpack & the Perkins brothers teaming up. What an awesome kitchen remodel this will be for Summer & Rad.
Interesting to see what's behind those walls. If I had found roaches in my dishwasher, I'd have wanted all those walls to come down to see what was going on!!
I’m thinking that you might have been better off just framing a new wall in front of the existing wall. You could have ran the vent toward the end of the wall, and a header wouldn’t have been necessary either. Regardless, awesome work as usual!!!
Hopefully you will foam that wall out. A 600 sqft KIT should work fine. Never saw a single bug after I did that. I then went across the studs with aluminum double bubble. Then I taped them off.
I’m actually shocked no dead critters were behind the drywall and insulation. Love your remodel videos and now that you’re doing Summer and Rad’s home, does that mean Paul’s home is next?
As a contractor i already know a decent amount about the trades. But Paul is full of great knowledge that needs to be spread. Its an honor to watch you guys
Paul is the dad we all wish we had
why did they use a pressure treated 4x4 post. that will shrink
And if he's wrong on something, he's the first to point out and own up to it..
@@codybersicc7939 I wonder why. It might shrink on the side dimensions depending if it's had time to dry. Not significant. I don't think there is any shrinkage vertically to speak of.
Back to back nights of stud pack and stud pack 2!
It's been a good couple days for sure!
@ followed up by Andrew Camarata
Seriously the only reason I open TH-cam lately. Keep up the flow of videos guys!
@@terencemerritt I watch him sometimes, but those videos are looooonnnggg. But still good.

So grateful that Paul tried to careful in demolition for materials that people can reuse.

As a dentist, yes that is how it feels to finally get that tooth out!
Thank you 😂
Paul you are incredible. I have been watching you for over 5 years now and am just in awe. The depth and breadth of your knowledge is mind blowing.
2/3 of a million let’s keep the stud pack train rolling!!! Love you Paul, Jordan, and Rad you guys are the best!!!
A small army of folks watching a remodel. Love it.
They'll be at a million in no time! Great projects and great videos. Really one of my favorite channels on TH-cam.
It's really tough waiting for the next video to come out, that's how good they are.
That 22 is actually a ramset charge. That's how they drove the Concrete anchors
I'm pretty sure Paul knows that. Judging from the elk antlers in the garage, I'm also guessing Rad recognizes a blank.
"lost torx bit". Truer words have never been spoken. Where's my T25? I have 2 Phillips I need a T25. That's how my day started. 😂
Then you end up finding it when you no longer need it and looking for a Phillips. Lol
@@poeticsilence047 I'm glad I'm not the only one. I never did find it. It was my favorite T25.
Check with your AHJ, but those long stub ups of copper that you used for securing aren't legal in my area anymore. The air dissolves out of the air chamber sooner than you think and the dead end of pipe becomes a breeding ground for legionella. May want to look into it before closing up the wall.

It's great that you have partnered with the Perkins brothers. They and you guys are my favorite to watch.

I found razor blades also. What a shock
Y'all are making great progress, but still doing it the right way. Paul is the consummate remodel contractor.
Rad is such a stud, Summer is one lucky woman!!
Jordan, Summer and Rad are very lucky to have a father like Paul. I don't have a clue how he is not exhausted!!
Ikr?! Where does he get that energy?! 😮😅
Ty for your help. I have been building new and old stuff for awhile. But i don’t know everything. Your giving us great knowledge at a high level. Ty

A temp sink base is a great idea!
I love those bit holders. Huge help at work
Love the Perkins tool belt and your collaboration with them.
I love you guys especially Paul you’re the best.Such a super awesome guy
Thanks guys!!! I spilled my coffee when you carried that granite top FLAT! I was waiting for the snap!
If he carried it from that small piece on the end, yes.
@17:17: Really glad to see those materials get reused vs. piled in a dumpster.
In the future, carry those slabs on their sides. They crack easily under their own weight when carried flat.
Super awesome OG Stud Pack vibes. Really great progress. Can't wait to see the next surprise challenge from some other's work lol.
16:00 Rad's first step on the journey is complete. He says "nice" like Paul now. 👍
I love a clean demo 👍👍👍👍👍
Actually got 16' of almost identical countertop like that. Cut it up and one went to fish cleaning station, one piece to a front porch table I built, couple small pieces to sharpen chisels and knives on, one piece is my computer desk now. Good scraps for free.

4:39 stud pack!
That’s rough living. Me and my family are living like that right now.
Leaving that kind of trash under someone's cabinets would keep me up at night. Nothing more satisfying than vacuuming up all the small construction debris.
Our cabinet was just like that. Surprised it never fell on us. Had a bunch of things in the cabinet. But we remodeled so no need to worry anymore.
Heck with the expense factor of a counter depth fridge, I want the storage space from the big dog.
That is great that you are trying to safe items to recycle. Less trash in the landfill the better.
hope the fan on the down draft range is strong enough exhaust the air most refrigerator manufacturers ask for 2/3 inches of room in back for proper air flow
Paul, there is a lack of outlets on that wall in the kitchen.
That really is crazy that only those nails were holding up the cabinets. Not even a few screws! They are lucky it didn’t come crashing down on them. Great video and tips sprinkled throughout. Was wondering if you considered an LVL post instead of the standard 4x4 for handling the load? The LVL has a higher load capacity.
Not flaming hot but I was eating Cheetos in Kindergarten in 1977. 😂
bummer! I just got another tool belt for the same price. Wish I could have supported you all with this offer
Paul is outstanding!😀
"That'll make a good fish cleaning station for someone..." Paul, your Louisiana is showing. ;)
over here, we have cooktops with extractorfans downwards that don't need extra exhaust pipes, but they cost a bit more.
I’d have been making outdoor kitchen preparation station with sink with those countertops.
I just got done watching the recent perkin builders and in tht one they got new belts
Nailed up cabinet. Crazy!
I knew when I saw the perkins brothers vid earlier and you guys had a promo code that I'd be seeing you rocking those belts. They look amazing for the price. Unfortunately I already have way too many belts lol and my custom one can't be beat for my needs.
I use laundry room sinks for temp sinks during kitchen renovations.
Love that sink build! I haven’t had a sink in 2 months I’m washing in the basement. My wife will not wash dishes down there 😂😂😂
I’ve had two homes with downdraft vents in an island and they basically don’t work (replaced both with vent hoods). It’s your house of course, but really think y’all should rethink going with a downdraft.
Looks great. I’m curious to know if you’ll add blocking to the joists in the ceiling above that don’t have a rim joist.
18" to the center line of that kitchen waste rough in is fine. 21" rough in for the water lines.
Another great video for sure. Paul just is full of knowledge & great to see he is sharing it with everyone. Also great to see Studpack & the Perkins brothers teaming up. What an awesome kitchen remodel this will be for Summer & Rad.
The tool belt product shots were well done! Great video!
Interesting to see what's behind those walls. If I had found roaches in my dishwasher, I'd have wanted all those walls to come down to see what was going on!!
Excellent video, with excellent information. Thank you!
11:03 rad laughs at Paul and watches him struggle while rad does nothing
Fantastic content! Thank you, one and all, for the great work ya'll are doing!!
So happy to see another GREAT video!!!
Must be real nice to have a full FREE team for a DIY....!
You guys are doing a great job on that reno
Are you going to do a tour of the finished Garage/home?
Y'all make it look so easy!! Nice work😁
Anytime I get to see some RAD is a GREAT DAY!! ;)
Stud pack part 4 after dinner for the win…
I always get excited when I see the SP notification of a new video.
top 10 best channel on youtube IMHO

I was able to sell all my cabinets during our last remodel, turns out they were better quality than the box store ones I replaced them with
Summer the bandana is overlkill lol 😂 such a cutie. Wow you guys all rock make it look too easy. Love Paul'sattention to detail. Miss seeing Jordan.
I’m actually shocked no dead critters were behind the drywall and insulation. Love your remodel videos and now that you’re doing Summer and Rad’s home, does that mean Paul’s home is next?
Thank You for another great episode.
Finally you got some Perkins Bros belts!
I was thinking about the tool belt when you guys went up to help PBB crew! The belt is terrific!! KUTGW
Love these videos
Question.
Explain how the fridge gets proper air flow. Front draft or a back draft?
She said : PLUMB LIKE THIS!
Job well done!!
Haha, I’ve really been waiting for you guys to do this
