      I was going to say the same thing. A step-by-step narration of not only the HOW but also of the WHY you do each step and a discussion of potential problems you might run into and their SOLUTIONS would be a better format for this or, quite frankly, ANY instructional video. A video that is only a recording of "someone" doing "something" is just a "diary" or a record of an "occurance."

    Here's a mess and time saving tip. Depot sells a small paint mixer that goes on a drill. It's called the HDX Helix 1 gal. Mixer. I use that to mix my mud quickly and evenly. It fits in the bottom of the pan perfectly also. I rarely get clumps. If I see a clump, I'll hit the mixer real quick and it draws in and gets mixed quickly.

    I design and sell custom doors and windows for a living and I was chomping at the bit watching this! I kept wanting to ask questions but I held back and I watched it till the end. I couldn't figure out why they were putting in a smaller window, then I was wondering why a new construction window. Anyway when it was said and done it was good to see someone that knows to use the rubber membrane the correct way and flash it. I always tell people to start at the bottom like shingles on a roof and keep directing water away from the window. I love new construction windows with the nailing flange. Very easy to install and square. I am also a fan of JELD-WEN! if you can get the window out I always recommend new construction over replacement. You can inspect the framing and insulate more if needed. I like the drywall surround now and then just for something different. Good job!

    Finally a video of a window instal where there not just slapping in a new window. My replacements require firing out so this was nice to see. However pretty sure it's not code to put a vinyl window over a range. The metal flashing you made set you apart from the hacks. However we never got to see you install them!

    One can rent a break machine for aluminum wrapping for not much money. It is not difficult as in fact way easier as it bends/cuts easily. The pricing people charge and they do not use quality caulking and/or slap it on there where water can get in. Another reason to do it yourself.

      You are changing the opening depending on the size of the window and the changes to the window itself such as frosting the glass low E and argon color the window frame skinning the the inside and trim your looking 1200 to 1500 just for that window there's alot that goes into changing the side of a window not to mention the outside nightmare to make it water tight and look good or as if that how its supposed to look
