MODERN BUILDS
Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.
Thanks for following along on this DIY journey!! House tour is coming very soon.. stay tuned for the next BIG project on Modern Builds!! 😁
I'm glad that someone else noticed the spots, I kept trying to clean it off my phone! 😂
You should use your drill for the roller shade to spin the handle fast
I’m sooo happy for you . I can’t wait until the next biggest project 😊😊
Does the school bus finally get to take a road trip?? :)
You can use a drill and a cup hook as a bit to roll/unroll your shade quickly!
Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
Cut the twist handle off so it’s only about 8” long. Leave a cheap drill right next to the shade. Pop the handle into the drill chuck when you want to raise it or lower it. voila…powered shade!

my exact thoughts
Wonder how long will it be before something happens to the ceiling with that beam that he installed wrong.
Every time I watch one of these videos, the dirty camera lens just quietly enrages me.
2:10 looks awesome but the fridge must be away from the wall a few more inches so the air can go through the radiator and out. Otherwise the fridge will run longer (using more electricity and heating more the room).
Indeed, this fridge has almost no space left to vent the heat to. It's a shame because I love the rest of the video.
Plant advice incoming! Monstera Deliciosa likes to climb. In nature, you usually see then climbing up trees. Yours would LOVE support. Not only will it help keep it from sprawling horizontally, you’ll eventually start to see the leaves size up and see more fenestrations (the slits and holes… that’s what she said).
You can buy moss poles on Amazon. You can use floral tape to tie it to the pole or they also make these plant Velcro strips that are nice because it won’t “bite” into the plant. Another option is a plank (most use cedar because it’s slower to rot). There’s a bunch about “plants on planks” on YT. I could totally see you putting a twist on it and making something super unique!
Love seeing your projects! And your plants! ❤
Long time fan the house looks great. I have been told that if you refrigerator has those coils in the back if will need the gap to exchange heat. I could be wrong but please check.
Great DIYs, your space looks fab!
A tip for your monstera: add a support beam in the middle and attach the leaves with some sisal rope or plant staples. When the leaves have sth to hold on to, they feel stable and grow taller rather than flop over.
Also maybe wipe your camera lense, these 3 dark spots have already been there for the last few videos 😅huge love my friend
Add a stake for your monstera! They are climbing plants. It will make your plant happy and help it look more attractive.
A moss pole would be great for the monstera since it needs something to climb as it grows! :) Love the DIY pant stand!
Replace the roller shade with a pull down version on tracks, that way you it will not flap around and you can lower/raise it to whatever height you want it at, or a motorised version on tracks.
with the dart board it will be better to drill small holes for the darts to slide the sharp edge in instead of the ceramic cup you might blunt them
I’m happy for you but that lens though.
For your sun shade you could just attach a drill to a straight rod with a hook at the end to raise and lower it. We’ve got something similar at work
I typically love your stuff. But please learn caulk is applied with a push and the finger is to tool it into the gap better and ensure no big air pockets behind it. Then we come to the ant stand, you could definitely do better the legs weren't even on the same plane. And lastly wtf was the brita stand? Cups exposed to tons of dirt and dust with the opening up and collecting it all for you to add water to. Please either flip the glasses or build something within your skill set that actually makes sense. Other than that I'm completely jealous of the arch table and the leaf table. For different reasons as they are completely different in every aspect. Thanks for the video your hard work is definitely appreciated just wish you didn't mail it in on those things.
You could attach a drill motor or something to that shade, and wire it from the house with a switch.
idea on your roller shade: order a shade a few inches longer. Then add another width of board around the edge so you can encapsulate the shade on the sides. This will keep more wind out and make it not flop whatever height you have it at. :) Awesome projects and giving me all kinds of ideas! Thanks!
What a huge and nice project 👏👏 Congrats man 🎉🎉
It's been so satisfying watching this project unfold over all these months! Gonna miss these videos and I'm so excited for what you've got next! (Plus I'm glad you wont feel like you're living in a renovation anymore!) #superpro
Now the outside surface of the house and the yard with the driveway and other stuff.
The house turned out absolutely amazing bro. From when you first bought it til now, it doesn't even compare!
It's really cool. You could perhaps add an outdoor kitchen for BBQ on the left. And maybe some kind of garden in front of the front porch (if that is possible in the desert) and an outdoor pool? Anyway, I'm really impressed by what you did!
I don’t even know where to start ! There is nothing you can’t build 😅you must be so so proud of yourself ! Congratulations ! House is beautiful❤❤❤
Love the shelf above the fridge - stealing it.
@ 21:30 I'll chuck a screw hook into my cordless drill and use that to roll the shades up and down.
Your monstera plant will "crawl" unless you provide a pole or trellis to help it grow upright- and the sooner the better. They need time to adjust but it will be a much happier plant with some supports.
You could do like an hour long video of all the renovations back to back
House looks dope! 🙌
Yo, some twinkle string lights for that front porch would look killer >:D
I swear he can do everything. He got me with the plants
What?????
Love that you were able to repurpose those tables legs, but in the long run that table is too low to be a laundry folding surface. Save your back and make it counter height instead
Really surprised with your super clean aesthetic that you didn’t hide the wires behind the tv
Bud, love the videos but can you clean your lenses? There's always the same dots all over everything, drives me nuts!
The same camera is used for his OF 😅
@@DrLoveQc I wish he had an OF 🥵🥵🥵
Right?! It's actually dust on his camera sensor, but yes, please take care of the equipment and clean it!
I came here to say the same thing, but you beat me to it
I’d subscribe to his OF in a heartbeat 🥵
Fabulous
Omg finally
I had heard you saying that you would be doing this project when you had finished the bus one
I had waited for so long, this feels good
Have enjoyed the ride since you bought the plot of land until this last stage of the project, congratulations!!!
At the beginning this was like: well.... for the land and so... lets round up to $80K
Now its like: $185K buddy, no low-balling, take it or leave
It all looks great. I've enjoyed this series. I'm looking forward to seeing what's up next.
Its pretty amazing what you have done with this house! Although some of it is not my style (im old!), I can appreciate the craftsmanship and the fact that you MADE what YOU wanted! Looking forward to the next project!
Looking so much better!
As for the monstera, it wants to climb and will keep flopping over without support. There are lots of awesome options (trellis, moss poles, wooden planks) and plenty of YT videos to figure out which one would be best for you. Kill this plant has some good videos on this.
Also, love the corded mic. If you ever need to upgrade, a Bob Barker style one would be epic.
Use step motors or 360 degree servos for roller.
Congrats! Looking forward to what you come up with next!
Great job. I've seen it from the beginning. Amazing transformation. Again, great job
“A little caulk goes a long way”… 😂😂😂
Come on sir! you make all look so easy! hahah
Good job! great video!
You haaave to do a video about those matching peveys t 40 and t 15 i think they look pristine sooo coool
What an absolute success my brother. The amount of work and design is unmeasurable. Work like yours has inspired me to renovate my art studio
Nice Mike. I didn’t see your pink t-shirt portrait though. Your home looks good.
7:28 i see a great cat tower option there.
Love it!!
Super Pro!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Watched every episode! Can’t wait for the next chapter in modern builds!
The house looks great. I recently picked up those same guitar wall mounts and they are really cool indeed. I may have to buy an led bar now!
I love it!!
It turned out great !!!
Good Job. Looks awesom
This video was sponsored by dowels...Looks great man! Lots of good ideas and jumping off points
Wait wait wait wait. There’s still landscaping needed
Always pro but you should never let someone like me throw a dart at that wall because i would get it in the fridge 🤣
Everything looks great! Congratulations!
Good vid, but you used a hole saw for the plant stand not a forstner bit to create the circle
I love all you’ve done but can you please please hang full length curtains as close to the ceiling? The little short things you have feel like bangs cut too short. 😂
Your very inspiring. Keep up the good work.
I guess i'm confused by a few things. Why not build a fridge casing that matches the kitchen cabinets, but just tall enough to cover the top? Wouldn't that look intentional and still be functional for plants? Why hide the screws of the dart wood with glue and a dowel? Wouldn't that be more difficult to take off if you decide to eventually move it?
your arch design on the shelf, turn that into a shoe shelf for your coat rack, and give it more stability. maybe do a double arch shelf with the dowels for more shoes. :D
We have come a long way. YT recommended me your bedroom renovation video since then I have enjoyed your work a lot it inspired me to make some DIY projects myself. e
Blocking the top and bottom of your fridge will make your fridge work harder / less efficient or will even make it stop working altogether. The backside has a radiator and needs ventilation not unlike your car radiator. Restricting the airflow means that your fridge cannot dump the heat it produces cooling your food.
Great job on this full house transformation! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Loved watching the progress in every video!
Get some growing sticks to help the plant stand up and grow taller.
Is that an eyelash on your len at the bottom left corner? I was trying to wipe it away before i realized its not my phone 😅
Its nice to see the finishing touches. Enjoy the new home!
Love the video❤
that's is considered home? its wood and drywall?
Benn watching the whole time Mike. Everything is lookin real good Mike. Hoping all is well my friend & have a Blessed New Year Bud, Dirty Jersey out!!!
SUPER PRO
So glad to see the house is done! I've loved watching this series thanks for the great content!
mic catch at the end might be the new mic drop.
super pro.
A small motor hooked up to that screen will speed that up. Ive enjoyed this series of your videos! Super pro!!
Amazing. Cheers from Brazil
OK, it's time to clean the sensor on your camera. :)
I was looking for this comment lol 😝
As someone that grew up right next to Joshua Tree. Don't keep your shoes on the floor, especially next to the door. scorpion stings suck!
You are a great presenter! Looking forward to the next video!
The house looks great, Mike. You put a lot of dynamic creativity and much, much labor and sweat into this new house and I love it. Have fun in Midwest City and a very Happy New Year.
I wonder if you could get a real estate agent in there to give you an estimate of the equity you put in vs the cost of materials.
Congrats!!
Those hangers are just woooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
I want some for my swords!
Excellent as always
Hi, nice video as always!
But I have just one thing that I've been wondering...
You end up doing round corners often... Wouldn't be easier to spend a bit of time to make a template and do your round corners with a router?
You know what is not super pro, is the lenses, dude i love your work but this camera is so annoyed to not notice that dirt
How come you haven’t been using Simple Finish? Does it not play well with lighter colored wood?
Just FYI your camera lens in dirty...but great video as always
Terrific series and fantastic work on that house renovation! Happy New Year! 💥💥👍👍
Great finish to this big project 💯. Waiting for your content on 2023! Happy new year 🥳
Happy New Years! Where is the link for the corner lamp?
Use a drill to open and close that shade faster
Ok this definitely isn't my phone, but I think there was something on the lens, all throughout the first 10 mins of the video and also in the last 4 minutes, causing a smudge in the bottom left corner of the screen which annoyed me a bit as I rubbed my phone hoping it'd go away but it didn't, just wanted to let you know, there also a few dots on the screen aswell
does the tv get damaged when the wood stove is running? Beautiful build dude.
Very nice job
Were the keys a clue?
for the love of youtube, clean your sensor 😜
It’s not the size of the caulk gun, it’s how you use it ;)
