    I only recently found Larry Haun's videos here on youtube, I could sit and watch for hours as he cut and nailed away a new home before my eyes, always with the kind of attitude that anyone could do it too. I'm thankful for his time on this earth, he was a skilled craftsman and a patient teacher, always giving away his knowledge to those who would like to listen. Now it's our turn to take up the mantle and carry it forward till someday we teach the next generation. Rest in peace friend.

  • @kurtrindgen4708
    @kurtrindgen4708 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I had bought Larry’s framing videos back in the 90s when considering a career in construction. I always enjoyed the challenge of hand nailing even when the guns arrived. So I loved the videos watching Larry and Joe work as efficiently as anyone with a nail gun.
    I also took in some commentary I had read about when these videos were being made. Cameramen and camera crews work very hard. I had read someone recording during the making of these videos that, Larry in his 60s, would routinely outwork the entire camera crew.
    They’re not building workers like this anymore.

  • @WelshRabbit
    @WelshRabbit 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    RIP, Larry Haun. Larry was one always ready to share his wealth of knowledge and experience both in the books he wrote and in videos. Sir, with humility and deepest respect, I lift a glass to the honor of your memory.

  • @koopa12345678910

    Bless Larry. I got a little emotional watching it. Not only was he still working in his 80s he was still teaching in videos when he could’ve easily just focused on his work. If you work for companies these days all they want is experience and nobody has time to teach you because it takes time away from
    Them. He had all his fulfillment. He had money, a loving family. Status. He was truly for the people.

    He shared some great tips like wearing a nail pouch around back so you don't have to staighten up to grab a nail and I like the way he used the hammers claw to pick up boards. Working without messing up his back is probably the reason he could still outpace the young guns.

    all you "dissing" Larry dont know shit from shinola . I know in his younger days Larry and one more man could dry in a 1600 to 1800 one level home in two days no air tools, no fancy equipment, just worm drive saw, hammer, tape and square. And it would be built to code, it would be square, level and plumb.And very well connected... Talk is cheap I see from some of the wanna be "super framers" posted below... Back in the day,, these guys would do this day in , day out rain sine, hot or freezing.. yall "dissers" are just little puppies , and wet behind the ear.

      WELL SAID. Larry Haun revolutionized an industry - the ultimate "lean process" guy, not one bit of technology necessary, just thinking every step through. I had the pleasure of meetint/talking to him at a tradeshow back when I was getting going - what an incredible workman and yes - craftsman. And the nicest guy you'd ever meet. It's hard to believe he's gone because when he was 70 he seemed like a guy in his 40s. RIP Larry and thank you @Whommee for setting the record straight for the TH-cam trolls.

    My father was a home builder. I worked with him for years. This makes me think about those days. Framing walls was my favorite part of the whole build. The rest was fun but we we could frame a whole single story in one day. To go from the deck to all of the walls standing. We covered the outside walls with plywood as we stood them up also. Fun times.

I get value out of this book by getting ideas on what features will work for MY sheds that I design myself. It has terrific photos, all are professional in quality. Book is quality coffee-table style--shiny, thick paper and a soft cover that is also high quality. I like it.

    Larry is the spitting image of my father. My father was born in 1940 I was raised framing houses and my dad had suspenders and hands just like Larry. I ended up being a HVAC contractor however. Watching his videos brings me some solace as it reminds me of the good times I had with my father. I’m about to frame my new house in a few months and found these videos. I’ll have to do it on my own this time. Appreciate your parents while they are here. That generation was special. Great workmanship and understanding of the trade. RIP Larry

    I was saddened. The only thing is that I would have liked to have met him.
    Not only was he great with that hammer, but I have watched some of his other videos,
    the man was also a marvel with a skill saw. Man could he wield that saw.

    When we were framing new houses, we always left the jacks studs out when we were framing the walls. It was a lot easier to cut the floor plate out with a circular saw, and put the Jack studs in later. It would also be back work we could do on a rainy day. As framers we tried to leave back work for rainy days.

      Fred, he *is* still around. His videos are here for posterity, for all these young framers and carpenters to learn from the master.

    In black electrical contractor here in Sacramento and I really enjoy watching this man work in all his videos. He was top notch! RIP friend I never met.
    P.S. this man was a nailing artist!

      I don't believed your race has any relevance to the rest of your comment. As a Sacramento resident myself, I specifically avoid business who market themselves specifically as black owned businesses or FUBU type businesses. Maybe cause yall make me feel like I don't belong. Idk. But it's weird how you felt the need to mention your race. Does being black help you run wire? Or does it help with estimating? Just curious why you felt the need to mention the colour of your skin and not somrthing that speaks to who you are as a person. Unless you want to be identified as a "black person" your whole life. Stop isolating yourself and society won't participate. Cheers man gooe luck with that internalized racism

    Larry could walk on a 2x4 wall like a fly, that's what some called him. He told me if you start to fall, jump inside the building, you won't get hurt as bad. Man had a sense of humor.

    Larry Haun rules (ruled). He made this framing vid three months before he died. Larry, with his beloved Hart California framing hammer, could spank 16d's nearly as fast as a pneumatic nailer. I love his bleeped out comment: "…all I wanna see are ass holes and elbows." Two carpenters I admire most - Larry Haun and Jimmy Carter, are, unfortunately, carps I'll never meet. Larry Haun rest in peace. You da man!

      Nice hammer job, but after thirty-plus years (that's me) your elbow, and shoulder, might have a different opinion.
      And the people that use those all steel hammers...!

    Jesus....some times internet is so cruel, one day i see Larry Haun, walking on the second floor between narrow places framing big houses, just with the help of his brother, no nail gun, no expensive equipment, and the next minute he is very old, moving slow, and nails dropping from his hands, the next minute i found out he passed away....i guess life is a biatch.

    Larry shared a lot of tips on his earlier videos about saving your back, and here his is still framing at 80 years old. He knew of what he spoke.
