Hey Spencer great to see you funny is before you even opened the Van door I knew there were golf clubs behind it... smile & thank you for those 2 tips: 1 about not dropping the drill bit, furthermore turning off the router earlier wonderful to see it all
Always love the way you respect the trade following you. Not a lot of Carpenters do this. And as a result of watching your TH-cam channel I think a bit more when finishing up the Job.🇮🇪
ughhh I love this guy cause he shows how to do everything right with tools that make life easy. And here i am trying to follow him while finishing out my house. Idiot door and trim company is refusing to send someone out to put another bore on the garage door, its only a single. So now i am having to do it. Great video
Another great video, Spencer. Your hints and suggestions have helped me a lot. By extension, you've helped a lot of people as a direct result of my learning from you - I volunteer for Habitat for Humanity so whatever I can do better vis-a-via learning from you helps get folks in homes sooner and at less cost.
I never seen this video before wow love the jig, every time i watch you i always learn something new always learn a new way to step up my game " Love That"!!!!!!!
Nice jig. I'm a locksmith. The only thing I would suggest is when your first crossbore breaks through take your holesaw out and finish from the other side. Eliminates breakout.
@Phelebas. I've used this Templaco jig for many years. Tearout on the cross-bore exit side is completely minimal. The casting has identical holes on both sides, sized just big enough to allow the cross-bore bit to pass through them. As the casting acts as a clamp, sqeezed tightly against both sides of the door, it eliminates tearout in the same way that the guide strip does on a tracksaw. No need for any further precautions.
The jig is made to prevent that, the hole on the other side is the exact diameter of the bit so when it comes out there's no rik of tear out, been using this jig for 3 years now bits are still sharp, only wish the templates were made out of a better material, it's pretty expensive
Awsome video. You are very informative and thorough. I love watching your videos and the fact the most important thing is to go golfing afterwords is important. Lol.
I have a small trim router with a 1/16 round over bit dedicated for running around the lock bore hole, cleans it up and it sure looks nice, have had many positive compliments from locksmiths. It is set to clean it up and soften the edge. Only adds seconds to the job for a clean professional appearance .
@@InsiderCarpentry question, do you still recommend this lock jig? Does this jig cover 2 3/8" & 2 3/4"?. Is this a jig that covers ju about l th needs for residential door installation?
Thanks for sharing. That's the way to go and the work done on those doors looks really professional, not to mention how fast the job was done. I'm definitely going to get the template for mortising the latches
When I router out the latch I will put my shop vac in the door knob hole so it sucks up the dust from the routing process. if you just angle the nozzle it will hold on of course it depends on he size of the hose.
I use the exact same set of Templaco jigs. One other expensive mistake to avoid when using the borong jig is to be sure the bit you're not using is fully withdrawn from the hole when you drill in with the other one. Don't ask how I know...
Just add a stop collar and a spring what fits on the bit and all your problem is solved. Stop collar doesn't let the bit falling off the template and the spring push the bit back from the hole.
Fwiw...I prefer to drill the smaller barrel bolt first, that gives some relief and an edge for the 2-1/8" bit to bite into making that second cut a little easier.
I bought this lock boring kit and I love it for precision locating! Only drawback is the HSS drill bits seems pretty dull. Not sure if anyone else has had that issue?
It would have been nice if the manufacturer of that boring jig left room for you to put a piece of backing wood where the 2 1/4" bit exits the door so you don't create a jagged exit wound.
I’ve been using this jig for over 20 years. I have never been able to get the door edge paddle but to stop chattering. I’ve been through 2-3 different bits. Otherwise it’s the only way to install door handles!!!
I wish there was a kit in between the homeowner versions and a 500 dollar kit. I just don't do that many doors to blow 700 for dore bore and hinge jigs
In the opening seconds you mention that the bit wants to drop out. A shaft collar will prevent that problem and will be easy to remove when you need to sharpen or change the bit.
I have that kit and it takes forever for the large bit to get through a solid wood door. Dust core doors are much faster. The angle of cut on the larger of the two forsner bits isn't very good.
Yo man love you videos supper interested in getting some of these but I can't support Amazon if you had links to the actual manufacturers I'd be all over this stuff.
This version being all aluminum should last a lifetime or 3. Even though the milwaukee one is one of the better cheap plastic style jigs, you eventually will end up "wearing it" , especially if there are several people using the jig over its life.
@@MrRustyjackson after watching him use it again, I agree. Having those forstner bits basically live in the jig would make this easier to just pick up and get to work. Not having to clear the hole saw might be worth the $400 alone!!
Im wandering if he did that because of larger drywall or multiple layers of drywall. Most stock jambs dont work with ⁵/⁸ drywall, and especially not any wall that may be double layered. Only thing you need to do is install the door as you would with extension side protruding past drywall, scribe, cut off the excess, install jamb trim.
@@beerbeforebreakfast no, he wanted the bulky look, but it’s going to look terrible. The jamb is going to protrude 3/4” on either side. Full stain grade knotty alder.
If I had a job on a golf course, I would pre order the appropriate tools as I see you did. My only question is - did the company pay for those and is it a tax right off? Total thumbs up on this one
oh man you gotta tell me how those clubs feel you lucky dog you lol man well enjoy you new clubs and love the video always and now i know golf well GRIP IT AND RIP IT !!!! you know who said that of course aslo whats your take on the masters this year anyways igot off topic this video ,ight be a game changer for me cuz i struggle with door and door hardware thanks for the video and go long yoyu sure have the clubs to do so.
Hahahaha heck ya man it seems like you get up and down so much better and that handicap goes down just a little bit when you get a set of clubs that just feel like there growing outa your hands lol 😆 grip it and rip it ..... lol
Wouldn't hurt ot put a stop collar on the drill bits to prevent them from falling to the ground. Also, the safety police in me reminds you that you have a family that depends on you have sight to do your job. My father worked in a factory and took his safety glasses off on his way to lunch and a steel chip caught him right in the eye. He was lucky is didn't blind him. Just a gentle reminder Spence that you are young, but not invincible.
I don't get many calls to hang slabs. for me I can't justify tooling up to hang slabs folks here wouldn't pay what I'd have to charge to make it profitable. it's cheaper to replace with a prehung. do you get many calls for this? what kind of customer base are replacing slabs?
I edited out part of the video where I was drilling the lockset because it was a very inappropriate range of motion. LOL. I knew minds would go straight to the gutter. LOL
@@InsiderCarpentry every time I back up, I'm surprised at what I don't see. Camera doesn't show what up high. Overhangs, trees, awnings.... ugh. I got mine back in November and haven't finished putting the plywood on the side walls. Something fell over and I got a ding pushing to the outside. Grrr
That Big Horn kit is OP! Nicely done!

Thanks for sharing! Just bit the bullet and finally bought 1.
You could add a stop collar to the drillbit shafts to keep them from falling out. Just a thought. Awesome jig and great videos!
E clips work
@@flammarama link to buy them please

superb vid Spencer!!! always a great job on every vid

Shame about losing those wood slabs though

@@attilakungl8063 Thx. Will do.
Cool tool kits. Well worth it if you have a lot to do. Thanks for the video!
Actually well worth it if you only have a few to do!
1:48just put rubber ring on the bit axle. It’s will prevents bit to drop off.
You saved the best for last.
I need this kit!! Awesome and easy to use 🤓
Always very informative videos and applaud your craftsmanship.......but golf???
Haha. Of course.
Golf is a thinking mans game. Spencer fits the profile.
Fwiw...I prefer to drill the smaller barrel bolt first, that gives some relief and an edge for the 2-1/8" bit to bite into making that second cut a little easier.
Checked your description for a link to that DeWalt blower. Think I need to get one of those. You might as well make a kickback.
They are worth their weight in gold. Here's the link: amzn.to/3ah489U Thanks for the support! It keeps the content production going.
@@InsiderCarpentry Thanks for the link. There was a lot to look at and I was not sure which one was the one.
Awesome work, dude. Thanks!
Could you post, or show how you made your saw bucks for the doors? Please?
He talks about them in this video: th-cam.com/video/g-sC9C0TkOM/w-d-xo.html
Golf man spencer 👏👏🙌🙌 what u playing of. 🧐
I bought this lock boring kit and I love it for precision locating! Only drawback is the HSS drill bits seems pretty dull. Not sure if anyone else has had that issue?
Yeah, it definitely isn't anything special. Very slow.
It would have been nice if the manufacturer of that boring jig left room for you to put a piece of backing wood where the 2 1/4" bit exits the door so you don't create a jagged exit wound.
The other side is slightly offset to prevent major blowout. But you still get some fuzzing.
I’ve been using this jig for over 20 years. I have never been able to get the door edge paddle but to stop chattering. I’ve been through 2-3 different bits. Otherwise it’s the only way to install door handles!!!
Does this kit work for a single sided deadbolt? Is there a stop included that would prevent you from going all the way through?
Sorry I am confused on which tool link you provided is the one you use? They look the same but there’s over $100 difference. Hoping to buy asap!
What about mortising the jamb side? Template for that?
Where did you get that base plate for the compact router???
What did you do with the existing door slabs
Are the bits with that template only for wood or could you add a dead bolt to a steel door
Wood only unfortunately. They may make steel bits, good question.
Dam...now I need those too!!!
@@ChromeLuxx don't you hate the paper templates that comes with dead bolts that is the first thing I trash and grab a speed square and a tape
what's in the van !?
Does this kit slip if i use it on metal doors?
I wish there was a kit in between the homeowner versions and a 500 dollar kit. I just don't do that many doors to blow 700 for dore bore and hinge jigs
In the opening seconds you mention that the bit wants to drop out. A shaft collar will prevent that problem and will be easy to remove when you need to sharpen or change the bit.

Three lashes with a wet noodle for not letting that router bit stop.
I just had to say it 😃
Time is money lol. When you're good you don't need to wait
Do you have to be careful with tear out when boring the hole or do you flip the jig
The other side is slightly offset to prevent major blowout. But you still get some fuzzing.

Good job on the doors. Nice views but way to flat. I like my Tennessee mountains
Its all flat fields around here.
Do you think it's that much better than the cheap Milwaukee versions?
This version being all aluminum should last a lifetime or 3. Even though the milwaukee one is one of the better cheap plastic style jigs, you eventually will end up "wearing it" , especially if there are several people using the jig over its life.
I can see using the forstner bits is much faster than the holes saws you get in the Milwaukee or Ryobi kit
@@MrRustyjackson after watching him use it again, I agree. Having those forstner bits basically live in the jig would make this easier to just pick up and get to work. Not having to clear the hole saw might be worth the $400 alone!!
Can you use on metal doors also ?
No, you need a hole saw for that.
I have a friend that purposely bought 2x6 framed doors to put into 2x4 rough openings. Have you ever done anything like this?
Im wandering if he did that because of larger drywall or multiple layers of drywall. Most stock jambs dont work with ⁵/⁸ drywall, and especially not any wall that may be double layered. Only thing you need to do is install the door as you would with extension side protruding past drywall, scribe, cut off the excess, install jamb trim.
@@beerbeforebreakfast no, he wanted the bulky look, but it’s going to look terrible. The jamb is going to protrude 3/4” on either side. Full stain grade knotty alder.
Yes that will look terrible haha
there's a $300 difference between Big Horn & Templaco. Is there a significant reason for that?
If I had a job on a golf course, I would pre order the appropriate tools as I see you did. My only question is - did the company pay for those and is it a tax right off? Total thumbs up on this one
its his company, he bought the tools
He’s talking about the golf clubs. Lol
What a pro...
oh man you gotta tell me how those clubs feel you lucky dog you lol man well enjoy you new clubs and love the video always and now i know golf well GRIP IT AND RIP IT !!!! you know who said that of course aslo whats your take on the masters this year anyways igot off topic this video ,ight be a game changer for me cuz i struggle with door and door hardware thanks for the video and go long yoyu sure have the clubs to do so.
The irons have been amazing. Big upgrade for me.
Does anyone have suggestions for a set that’s less than $200ish? Hard to justify that price for 28 doors I’m replacing.
Hahahaha heck ya man it seems like you get up and down so much better and that handicap goes down just a little bit when you get a set of clubs that just feel like there growing outa your hands lol 😆 grip it and rip it ..... lol
