Hi Paul. Great comment mate, and highlights how difficult it can be working with someone who isn't open to adopting new techniques.😬 Its really cool that we can all share our little funny different ways of doing things and it, definitely makes us better carpenters.😎 (I'm always learning/adapting). Cheers.
What a pleasure to watch! And what a beautiful job! That feather edge board/cladding looks stunning, well done TC 👍I have to say your performance was outshone by that lovely puppy though 😉
@@thetallcarpenter I have since we moved out off London, bought a hand saw, 25 mm chisel, hamer, small hand plane (cheap one), a 50 pound cordless drill ( which does better than expected😀 being used to makita and festool tools), some Irwin quick grip clamps, tape measure and a roofing square this all to improve the new house.
@@jimiwhat79 Hi Rob. Sounds like a great little collection of core tools that you can tackle a vast amount of carpentry jobs with.😎 Good luck with your house.👍 Cheers.
Hi MrStella. Its always tempting to just be a bit lazy and go with what's there, but, deep down, you know its only going to come back a get you if you don't start right.🤪 Happy Friday.😎
Hi there. Black is quite a commonly used colour, and I think, possibly because of all the old barns that used to be painted this colour.🤩 Certainly saves a bit on decoration costs when its already base and undercoated.😎 Thanks for your comment.👍
nice work. only thing I would have done differently is, wrap the building fully and tape all the joins, cut out for window and door opening and tape it with proper window tape. after that I would crack on pre- cutting for at least 3 big sides. That way, it would allow me to put more boards up rather than stop=start and cut as you go. But you knew that. nice work.
You're so right Mark.😎 Less than 10 minutes to set out and make, and it meant I didn't even need to measure or level a single board horizontally. Thanks for your comment.👍
Just thought you would like to know it’s 144.28 for 14 laps, did that in my head quick maths 😳. That’s exactly how I work out the tiling for my dormers, I just prefer the tiles to sit a full row 15mm above the opening. Great video keep them coming.
Hi Andrew. I absolutely get you mate, and its good to know that other guys also feel the same about gauging things out. As with a lot of jobs we all do, no matter what trade, these little things are not always noticed, but that doesn't stop us doing them.🤩 Thanks for watching and your great comment.😎 Cheers.

Hi Dan. Its soo useful mate. I originally though it was a bit of a toy, but its really got some grunt, and, as you say, you can blow your tools down at the end of the day which helps reduce the dust in the van.🤩 Thanks for watching mate, and your comment.😎 Cheers.
The multi-tool was calling out to me from the van to cut those wedges back George, but I just put a brand new blade in it, and didn't want to risk ploughing it into the concrete.🙈 Thanks for watching.🤩 Cheers.
Hi there shizz. And there's nothing better than arrow straight roof tile courses, especially on slate.🤩 Thanks for your comment mate, and for watching.😎
nice mate, we do the same technique with the datum stick and laserlevel in NZ, for horizontal weatherboard we will mark all the boards on each corner of a wall and ping chalk lines for each board, therefore we know everything is straight/level... a bit longer to setup this way but it sure does speed up after taking the time to set it up properly. do you guys not use a cavity system on the wall for airflow and drainage in UK? cheers
Hi Barak. The way you describe is EXACTLY how I normally set out my cladding. As you say, super accurate and every course is spot on.😎 This is just a garden structure with no insulation etc, so actually doesn't need any membrane, BUT, yes, in timber frame building construction there would be a membrane followed by battens to create an air gap and then the cladding. Timber frame construction is not the way we generally build here in the UK, and in the 36 years I've been a carpenter, I've only ever built them in the US.🤪 Thanks for your great comment and from watching from NZ.😎
Genuine question - shouldn’t you have a ventilation gap between the cladding and the breather membrane? Or does that not matter due to this being a rough finish garage (asking because I’d like to build my own soonish, and it’s one less thing to do / pay for!)
Hi Joe. Yes, there should really be an air gap by battening between the membrane and the cladding which is standard practice for habitable timber frame construction. However, this building is a glorified garden store with open walls and the membrane is really just to stop draughts as the cladding is not airtight. 👍Cheers.
I was fitting a gate the other day and took a quick video. It was only till I watched it back how peaceful it sounded with the birds etc! Need to take a moment to chill next time.
Hi there. That's exactly what happened to me when I was watching some of this footage back.🤩 How weird is it that we can relax when we watch it more than we do when were actually there.🤔 Like you say, perhaps need to take a moment and just chill.😎 (when we going to see this video👊). Cheers.
@@thetallcarpenter yes exactly! Only a quick video for my gran! However I think once I've finished my apprenticeship and up on my own ill definitely start making videos of my work as the network of people is brilliant. Thanks for the reply 👍
Mate cracking job again your videos are great well articulated again appreciate you sharing all these tips helps out a lot. How are you finishing the corners over the feather edge detail. Subscribers are rising well deserved mate 👍🏽
Hi Martin. in the corners I will just rip down a square section of timber a little bit wider than the projection of the feather boarding. It finishes it of just nice.🤩 Appreciate your great comment and thanks for watching.👍 Cheers.
Hi there. I appreciate your comment mate, and hope that you can take some bits and bobs from my videos.🤩 I'm going to try and put a bit more natural sounds in my videos going forward.😎 Cheers.
Great video. Just wanted to ask if there is any point to using an OSB board on the framework before the membrane and cladding or would that be overkill. What would be the circumstances to use OSB? Thanks.
Hi John. I think it would be overkill as the sheer amount of nails holding the cladding will make the whole structure incredibly rigid. Please don't quote me on this though, as I don't really get involved in domestic timber frame projects, but am more than happy with my approach on structures like this.👍 Thanks for your comment.
I’m diy building a garage in a 15’ wide strip of fenced in land. I won’t have room to wrap and clad the frame once erected. Would it be a issue if I wrapped and clad the walls before I erect them? The membrane wouldn’t be continuous. It would have seams/joints.
Hi Chop Chop🖐Yes, on the longer runs the boards are just cut nice and square and butted together👍Depending on how the boards are, I sometimes drill a little pilot hole for the nail to reduce the chance of it splitting on the ends👊Cheers Del
I have a quick question. I’m a wannabe carpenter and have watched a few YT videos of others building similar structures. One other TH-camr showed a secret nailing technique for feather edge. I notice you nailed along the bottom of the boards with the nails on display. I’m guessing there are different applications depending on the circumstances but I wondered what drives the decision to go one way or other. I love the way you’ve done this and will build my own Garden Room using this as a guideline.
Hi Mark. I would be really interested to see how this type of feather edge cladding is fitted so the fixings are hidden, as I've never come across it before.🤔 I fix the cladding the way I do as its quite a traditional cladding that has always been nailed through the front👍 Thanks for watching, and your comment😎
Hi there. My wish list of battery powered tools is as long as everyone else's, and always seems to be getting longer.🤪 Thanks for watching and your comment.😎
Really Productive day kudos, I’m a fan of the story rod technique I need to give it a go. I noticed you fixed the board quite low I’ve seen before on another video they said it’s important to make sure you don’t go through the board below aswell. Do you follow that rule?
Hi there. So I'm in slight disagreement over how the boards should be fixed with what is deemed the norm. I prefer to fix the board about 3/4" up from the bottom edge. I understand the theory behind not fixing this low as it will catch the top of the board behind it and may risk it splitting when it moves and this is partly why I always try and gauge my boards so there is only a 25mm lap. However, I have never been called back to a cladding job where the cladding has split. In my experience, fixing the board as low as I do really prevents cupping and keeps the overall job neater as the timber shrinks and swells.👍 Cheers.
I am currently fixing cladding and have a question regarding nailing. Are you catching the top of the lower board with the face nail on the board above ? I.e through the head lap. Seems to me that this would help prevent the board cupping. Also have seen some info that a single nail is sufficient assuming the board is installed with the heart wood facing out.
Hi Jack🖐Yes I do just catch the top of the previous board, exactly to stop the boards from cupping as they do when the fixing is placed 35/40 up to avoid hitting the previous board. Many say that this is incorrect as it will prevent the boards from being able to expand and contract and cam split the top out of the underside board. I do notice a few occasional splits, but never enough to show on the face down past the lap👍I'd rather this than really cupped boards👊Cheers Del
Hi Ronald. Yes it is a roofing membrane and I'm only using it here to reduce the draught as the feather boarding is not very air tight.👍 I should have explained it in the video, and will do in later ones.😎 Thanks for your comment.
Hi Ian. This is just an open walled garage and store. The feather board allows a lot of air flow so the membrane is only to help reduce draughts.😎 Cheers.
Hi there🖐My local timber yard charged me £2.75 per linear meter, so at a 150mm lap, you need 7 to cover one vertical ,meter. This would give a price of £19.25 per m2 ex VAT. This is treated softwood with a coat of barn black paint added all round👍Cheers Del
Hi there. This particular project is now waiting for the roof trusses to be manufactured. Once the roof is on I will finish all the corner pieces as I go and bring you a video showing it.😎 Cheers.
I didn't see part 1 but I don't see typical joinery associated with authentic timber frame. Am I missing something? This looks like typical stick frame. What makes this "timber frame"?
Hi Darwin🖐The whole building is framed out of timber, hence 'timber frame'👍We typically build using bricks and blocks, and I understand the in the US, what we call timber frame, you guys call stick building👊Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
@The Tall Carpenter Thanks. I watched later episodes and came to that conclusion. I am very interested in the ground screws. I will be starting a Pergonal project soon and considered incorporating these screws. Don't know if they are accepted in our area. (Northern California). How do they seem to hold up in saturated conditions? Really enjoy your videos my friend. Keep'm coming.

@@thetallcarpenter yes apologies for the ambiguity TC I have always made my own by screwing length of unistrut to ply and running skillsaw up and down both sides and keeping it until it got done but i am thinking to upgrade (a lot of CHOICES HEAD RECKING)
@@chipowood6032 If you're thinking guide rail AND saw then I can recommend the Makita. (depends what batteries if your cordless). I have a 1.5m rail which is great for almost everything but would really like a 2.7/3.0m one for cutting 8x4 sheets down. You can join 2 shorter rails together, but its a bit of a faff by all accounts. A mate recommended the Makita to me after having a Festool that broke as he said, although it was a more refined machine, the difference in its overall performance didn't warrant the extra cost of purchase.👊 Cheers.

Am doing 1 but was going to put osb board 9n frame then feather edge or cladding obviously felt over osb board then clad stronger but seeing this am I going bit over board to much am just very finicky

Lot of work when you're by yourself, if you learn something new everyday it's a good day , so it's good to be flexible 👍🇮🇪☘️👋
Hi John. You're so right.🤩 I try and learn something every day, even its just a new word.😎 Thanks for watching.
What is the cladding called please
Hi Atif. It is Feather Edge boarding, also sometimes called Barn Cladding👍 Cheers
I didn't see part 1 but I don't see typical joinery associated with authentic timber frame. Am I missing something? This looks like typical stick frame. What makes this "timber frame"?
Hi Darwin🖐The whole building is framed out of timber, hence 'timber frame'👍We typically build using bricks and blocks, and I understand the in the US, what we call timber frame, you guys call stick building👊Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del
@The Tall Carpenter Thanks. I watched later episodes and came to that conclusion. I am very interested in the ground screws. I will be starting a Pergonal project soon and considered incorporating these screws. Don't know if they are accepted in our area. (Northern California). How do they seem to hold up in saturated conditions? Really enjoy your videos my friend. Keep'm coming.
@Darwin Crabtree I found the ground screws a real revelation Darwin, and I'll be gobsmacked if you can't get/use them over there🤔Thanks for your comments bud, and great to have you watching🤩
cant beat the old story pole TC just wondering did you put much research into purchase of new track i have to splash myself
Do you mean track, as in, 'track saw'?
@@thetallcarpenter yes apologies for the ambiguity TC I have always made my own by screwing length of unistrut to ply and running skillsaw up and down both sides and keeping it until it got done but i am thinking to upgrade (a lot of CHOICES HEAD RECKING)
@@chipowood6032 If you're thinking guide rail AND saw then I can recommend the Makita. (depends what batteries if your cordless). I have a 1.5m rail which is great for almost everything but would really like a 2.7/3.0m one for cutting 8x4 sheets down. You can join 2 shorter rails together, but its a bit of a faff by all accounts. A mate recommended the Makita to me after having a Festool that broke as he said, although it was a more refined machine, the difference in its overall performance didn't warrant the extra cost of purchase.👊 Cheers.
@@thetallcarpenter Thanks TC I am in the process of going Makita with other tools as they have a good new range now. When I get I will defiantly be getting both tracks. Cheers for comment
@@chipowood6032 Sound good mate.🤩 Tools, tools, tools, its never ending.🤪

I get from the silicone video your tighter than two coats of paint buts here’s two words hammer tacker.
No Dez!!!. I hate the hammer tacker.🙈 Maybe I use them wrong, but I just never get on with them,😝 (I am tight though😂) Cheers.
People question me when I say the best tool in the building trade is a carpenter we can get over everyone else’s bad workman ship.
Hi Dez. Well said mate. We certainly do our fair share putting things right.😜 Thanks for your comment mate.👍
Am doing 1 but was going to put osb board 9n frame then feather edge or cladding obviously felt over osb board then clad stronger but seeing this am I going bit over board to much am just very finicky
Hi Peter🖐Your proposed detail will be very strong, but you also need to fix counter batten to create an air space behind the boards, as air won't be able to move through OSB👍Cheers Del
