Another exciting video Scott! Really liked seeing Jess on site with you!
Jess would make a great apprentice, feature some glamour to the excellent hard work!
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
scott greetings from los angeles california, you are a legend thanks for the videos.
Notification of a new Scott Brown's video , instaclick , instalike and then play the video 🖤
Got to admit watching SBC before tackling a renovation is very motivating
Jess is rocking that jacket!
Scott Brown you are simply the best. Love watching, so look forward to the next episode..... living here in the US (Louisiana) we have been recovering from two major hurricanes, ice storm and of course Covid. So watching you is therapy that heals the brain....👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻....
Great content as always! Who else around the globe is seeing drasticly increased prices for timber and other building materials?
In Sweden we will possibly be seeing increases in prices up towards 30%
In the US 92 5/8 inch framing 2x4s have literally more than doubled in price from 3.50 ish per board to just under 8 bucks. A single 4x8 sheet of 1/2" wafer board is currently 40 bucks
Prices have skyrocketed over the past 6 months
@@bradasskg11 That's nuts.. How are OSB and plywood prices? Those are way worse than wood for us right now, we are seeing something like 100-110% increase om OSB, IF you can find them.
@@johanolsson2207 23/32 osb subfloor is up to 56 bucks and just regular 3/4 oak or maple plywood from lowes or home depot is around 65-70 bucks, up from around 50 just 3 or 4 months ago
I am from Europe, Bulgaria and the prices of lumber are up just a litle bit and it depends where you buy it. But the prices of plywood and the other one( i dont know what its called) for concrete moulding are are just insane.
In Canada, I’ve seen lumber be priced 3x what it used to be. Makes doing my own projects harder, since I don’t want to pay that kind of premium.
Y’all make me want to move to NZ, buy a house, and hire you. You do such quality work and have a great attitude. For now, I’ll sit in my apartment and watch every exciting episode as it comes out :-)
In auckland good luck
@Liam W Easy, coming from Vancouver haha
The stoccato silence in the editing of this is satisfying as hell
Hi Scott, I use almost all pallet wood for my projects; I also get long pallets and many old decking boards. Wood of any size is practically none existent here in the UK and the amount of “friends” that have been coming over to see if I have any wood that they could use has multiplied. Some of them I have not seen for many months suddenly need wood and are popping over. Wood that was useless according to them is suddenly okay and the old nail holes don’t matter anymore, I have more fair weather friends now and even my son has been round and I haven’t seen him since Christmas, my birthday in February he forgot but as soon as he needs some wood he remembers where I live (a long way, all of ten miles) and I have had three visits form him in the last week.
Do not make home brew you may have to surround your oroperty with electrofied rasorwire.
@Scott Brown Carpentry. Yes that lift operator was very impressive in getting your materials placed with no damage or injuries. Great teamwork.
I really appreciate the efforts you make in making and editing these exciting episodes. I find them relaxing and inspiring.
Hope you, Jess, Pareau, Rich, and your families stay safe and well.
Happy Easter.
It is alway refreshing to watch a SBC episode =) Been here since who knows how long. Episode 12 I guess? Never NOT watched an episode (if it showed up in my feed that is)! Cheers! And Thank you guys!
Lumber trucks here in the United States
Have a little 3 wheel off road forklift that hooks onto the back of the truck called a moffett for unloading materials it makes it a lot easier for the driver in tight spaces like that
We have those in NZ as well but Hiabs are the standard for delivery trucks here
Milwaukee nail gun Makita jumper “im a player bro”. God I love him. Always a smart comeback
He's quite the legend aye
thats the kiwi way...always a smart comeback if possible.Some are better than others
I feel like this episode was really well assembled. Nice work.
It’s getting cold and wet! It is just starting to warm up in the uk, and it’s been nice catching a little piece of your summer during our winter.
But now it’s our turn for some nice weather. Hopefully!!!
Very short summer!!
Love watching you work. You're so meticulous in everything you do. Even your set up and clean up are great. Well done, Scott Brown and crew!
Hey mate, I really like your channel and I have no relation to building or tools at all, keep up the good work, cheers!
Long time viewer first time commenter. Have to say this would have to be one of the best so far. Getting slicker with production, camera angels, lighting and editing. Really enjoyed the Reno on the 100 year old house.
New Zealand....my ceiling is11mm out, I want to give you 5 grand to rectify the problem.
In the UK, shall we go to the pub😂👍
that sound of the delivery truck backing up the driveway! hahaha always hearing that sound on the sites i work on
There is not a timber shortage in NZ. Come down to the ports at Nelson or Picton they are covered in THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of logs. ALL being shipped over seas. There is so much its crazy.... but like most things in NZ (meat, Dairy, fruit...), it get shipped straight out leaving none for us.
That is a nice jacket 👍🏻
must be the favorite one
This the sort of work I wanna get into , I'm doing commercial atm but hoping to get into more residential
Hello Scott Brown Carpentry from Sydney, Australia.
* That is truly a simple and easy way to laser level an old ceiling.
* Obviously you prefer LvL to UB steel (nails v drill and bolts).
Building Materials NZ availabilty
* Is that a local short supply or national importation?
Eyes, ears and dust: on site, a must!
Happy easter- and thank-you for doing Gods work.
🍞🍷
When are we going to get the “Ive moved out of the apartment, bought a house and doing a 60 episode series on doing it up”?
And getting married to Jess
Just after the "I won the lottery!" video
Yeah, with the "I'm moving out of Auckland" episode
There must be somewhere he could find cheaper than city prices to set a base up, could buy land with someone and go 50/50.
I'm waiting for the Scott Brown OF account to drop
Love watching your channel here in Beautiful,Pure Michigan USA... Lot of my work is very similar to yours ( except the dumb-ass non-metic measurements) Cheers!
That Milwaukee nail gun is bad ass I could hear it from all the way over here when you were outside
Good to see the best character Jess BC back in the episodes. Looks like a... Gorman? jacket too...
7:27 Yep, and same around the nose piece too, where firing pin is. Every so often open that up and take mag off and clean everything nice and shiny and lube (if called for) everything and it’s good to go for another few years👍🏻
Not a hard thing to do, just takes some time to clear out all the gunk and “plastic” pieces if shoot plastic collated fasteners (which we do as well).
Nice way to cover the kitchen and like this new house. Gonna be looking spiffy when thru😁
Cheers✌🏻
Hey Scott, lumber issues are global. Here in Canada compared to 14 months ago, stick framing is 4x what it was 14 months ago & sheet materials are 5x the cost. Interestingly, gypsum board is roughly the same price... Last year at the height of round 1 of the pandemic, all we could get was the reject lumber, twisted, split & bent. We had buyers coming from other towns more than 100km away to grab what the merchant received as soon as it arrived. In some instances they were following the lumber trucks along the highway to the yard & the packs were being loaded from the delivery truck direct to the contractor's truck. It is insane here, so difficult to make a profitable quote with materials included. I have taken to quoting for time only with materials at cost separate...
Keep up the "Chippies porn" videos!
Another great video, no relation for what I do at work building concrete swimming pools ..!
Rondo is your best friend in old buildings bro 🤙🏼
"It's getting colder", lol. It's getting warmer here in New Hampshire but we are getting some snow today.
Love your channel and cotent Scott. Good purchase on the marquee / tent from Trade Tested. We're loving ours. It's really durable and was cheap as chips pricewise.
I'll say it again, Scott buy an old house and fix it, make an extra large garage/shop for your all your stuff. make it so apart of it can be a home operation for Jess to make and sell her baked/cooked goods. Buy and flip houses, I think we would all love to see this!
A difficult job made to look easy. Great....thanks.
Excellent timing on the vid, just about to start my kitchen and I’ll prob have to do the same, 🤔 hmm may have to talk the misses into buying a laser, spend a dollar to save a dollar 🤣
we love jess m8
I was expecting Genesis-Home By The Sea to start playing right after 4:48 LOL
Scott brown is the stuff like seeing makita is the stuff 2
Okay now this is just ridonkulous--three episodes of SBC nearly back-to-back? Outrageously awesome.
Scott, just want to shout out to your B-roll man. You really work hard at getting all those extra shots that look so natural but need that next-level investment to do. (like watching the van drive by your storage unit!) Kudos
When you said you were using a LVL beam I thought you wound have huge delays. We just received emails from our suppliers last week indicating lead times and it's not good! Lucky the client knows people in the right places!
Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Well done on both the carpentry and the video production!
The timber shortage is everywhere man. I live the western United States and a single sheet of OSB is up to $50 about 70 NZD and here it’s because the lumber companies are sitting on the logs not milling them to drive the price I mean a single 2x4x16 is $25 it’s insane
We've get a big timber shortage atm in Aus too! Local timber yard was all out of the standard 90x35 treated framing pine for nearly 2 weeks. Bunnings has had better luck keeping stock of most things atleast.
Timed that well, first! Hope that makita sandwich maker is working out for chef Paerau
Quality craftsmanship.
love the close out. Pardo... why you talking over there.....lol
love the outtake outro.... great entertainment... as a maker in Canada. keep up the great work.
Different styles/angles of filming, cool 😎👍🤓👍🇬🇧
Hey mate, a hikoki rep told me to lube the gun magazine up with graphite powder. Same goes for the mitre saw slide rails.
Happy Easter.....thanks for the entertaining and informative videos :)
Materials a nightmare all over the world its gone nuts here in wales the demand for materials is greater than the supply can the supply chain keep up ? Makes me worry so much work on and we could be on stop .Enjoyed the video very good and that lorry driver was awesome
Justin brickright 🧱👍🏴
Slap up some rondo. Job done
Enviously watching you put up that shade while today in Wellington we have 110kph NW gales. Envious because they simply don't work in Welly.
Early mornings.. Sienna enjoyed the video too SBC😎
Where I'm at in the states lumber prices are up over 40% in the last year. CDX plywood is nearly 50 bucks a sheet.
I use cranes similar to that on the truck in aus we have regulations that you can't use them within a certain distance of overhead powerlines and such
4 meters in NZ. Truckwit was being naughty
You may have to drive to your storage container but at least you get some sick shots
Timber shortage in the US too. We resorted to using palm tree wood in south Florida.:)
There is a global wood shortage and yet "we" keep cutting down the trees that produce the oxygen that we breath. And landfill the timber that should be recycled. Same here in Australia. "We" are so dumb.
@@rossmckenzie9446 I'm just kidding about the palm wood. Although I do agree with you. :)
Paerau is a banter merchant! Seems like a great lad. Can’t for the life of me figure out the spelling vs pronunciation of his name though ✌🏻
Its Maori bro.
Like all languages Maori has its own peculiarities. An 'r' is rolled with the tongue off the top of the mouth. An 'au' at the end is pronounced more like 'oh' in the English language. Ever wondered why thought isn't spelt thort?
As a general rule with Māori words, say every vowel. So to say "Maori" say Ma - oh - ri. (Correctly it's Māori with a long ā sound, Maa - oh - ri). Paerau should be something like Pa - eh - rra - ow. But it gets screwed up, because we New Zealanders clip our vowels a lot.
I've put a link below on Maori, if you want. It's 2 minutes of history, 5 minutes of pronunciation etc, then gets technical.

@@Muritaipet Thanks, that video was so interesting ☺
@@JK-yf9sx YW
Dude your videos are always MINT. Cheers from Texas! ✌🏼
Ooh! Nice use of MINT, bro!
I look forward to your videos everyday at lunch, just got my food warmed up and noticed a new video! Thank you Scott for the wonderful content, always finish lunch with a smile
Great video as always. It sems like it problems to get timber everywhere.
1.arpril the price whent up 20% and it will get ut 25 more in summer.
This is i Norway.
Anyway have a nice Easter
Hey mate, love you guys heaps.. When you guys gonna do a grand designs project? Take it to the next level.... "Great listeners, are born teachers, great teachers, change the world".
Another happy landing
Hey Scott,
I've noticed you wear alot of masks during your videos and was wondering if you could touch on what's a good mask to protect your lungs from all the dust and insulation. Love the videos keep up the good work!
Yea the guy was pretty good with the crane arm, but can he hang a door?
Huge timber shortage is Australia too most of our pine is coming from New Zealand 😅
Exactly what I'm doing at the minute, hah!
Same here homie g lol
We have the same timber shortage here in Chile and prices went up
An LVL above the load? I've never even considered it, but that is brilliant.
I wonder if its a thing here in the US.
I gotta go ask my builder.
Chances are you would be using a Makita framing nailer to go with the Makita jumper, but frustratingly Makita are very late to that party. Great video.
Greetings from Washington Dc!!!
Keep the good work up 👍
you guys are on the level
Noticed your wearing good old snickers👍
This is a job coming up for me in my house. I'm thinking of just ripping out all the joists and replacing.
Why don’t you just use plaster battern hooks? Use the ceiling joists and screw straight to them, and set them with a laser. Hundred times easier and quicker.
Love the videos, but non chippy related question: what rain jacket was Jess wearing? My Mrs would love it so want to see if I can surprise her 🥰
I think it is a Gorman. My wife loves their jackets. www.gormanshop.com.au/new-arrivals/iris-veins-raincoat.html Have a look at the webpage for different styles
@@Wairoakid awesome thanks, I thought it might have been Gorman, just got her something now, cheers 😀
Gorman. But wait for the sales, way better prices 😁👍
@@dressjess Easter long weekend sales just started today in Aus, so got a good deal 😁
A lot of work for a few mm. The lengths you go to levelling everything to the smallest degree baffles me. Structurally sound screw your battens sheet it. You must work on huge budgets. I'd be hard pressed to find a client willing to pay me to do all that. I work on a lot of house moved Queenslanders. Some have been cut into sections and moved several times. Good luck levelling them you would be there for months. I did my time working on buildings from the 12th Century on. We were always taught work with what you have. We went by eye and the old platitude if it looks right it is right. Moved to Australia and for a time worked for a so called Heritage Restoration company working on for Australia old buildings. Same as you out came the lasers and all kinds of modern steel bits and brackets etc. Totally not in keeping with the original structures. Nothing was sympathetic to the buildings I couldn't cope and left. This is only a 1940s house ceiling. In what situation does it become critical that the ceiling is laser level. Cost for the sake of cost.
Love The Video Brother! Much Love From EE.UU.
Peace Out Homie G. Made me laugh hard
happy easter weekend guys
The ceiling panel is cane-ite - well that is what I would call it uses as sound proofing material or pin up boards in schools - if you ever run out of laminated lumber you could always make up your own composite using readily available sections ??
Happy Easter Homie G
The music in this video made me think my smoke alarm was going off 😂
Bro, I'm not complaining, but if you're gonna start pumping videos every day, don't you dare stop haha
Never check out a beam.....surely you would just redo the valley support and not compromise a perfectly good LVL.
Yeah, that was the kind of thing a plumber does! Would've been better to check out that support strut and add a fixing to the new beam They effectively wasted 50mm of beam dimension.. and price.
Getting those beams was very lucky, it’s takes a long time to get those beams so we have gone back to using 300 x 45 pine
Peace from Massachusetts
Get some graphite powder for the HiKoki nail gun jamming
It's not just NZ. There's a wood shortage everywhere, and the price increases are awe inspiring.
In NZ some shortages are caused by a building boom. People are unable to travel so are spending their money on renovations and cars. I haven't noticed prices rising that much at the builder suppliers, although they may have in the home stores.
@@markgilchrist860 Well, here in Canada, at least in Toronto, a 2x4 that was $3 pre pandemic is now almost $9 . A sheet of plywood that was $35 is now about $75. And we're having a building boom as well, for the same reasons.
@@olafbigandglad Just looked up an invoice from 12 months ago - 100x50 (2x4) same price as today. $4.40 +GST /m. Auckland might be different but not by much.
I was thinking when those LVL's rocked up, "How the hell did you get them so quick". We ordered one weeks ago and still not ready.
Huge timber shortage here in Aus as well
Timber prices are sky high in the states.
Hi Scott brown, thanks for the great content, I have a question in regards to the roof load width (RLW)do you apply the RLW to every job you quote and if so could you please teach us by providing examples, thankyou so much
curiously, if you're reinforcing a settled single story structure, is the laser level necessary? isn't a slight slope in joists typical/desireable sometimes? also, if it's for longevity's sake, wouldn't highlighting an initail bad design an important topic, or do you need to whip a laser out every time you redrywall?
Cant believe there's a shortage of timber in NZ as there's also a shortage here in AUS.
