Nice to see Roger's presence. One really dedicated man who i have watched throughout the series, going back to when Bob Vila was on TV, then had his Home Again show. I think it was 1988. This Old House has been a part of my life for over 30 years. Very educational with old time educational ways.
I thought maybe they could get another nice door to fit. That said, I'm now looking at my non-standard sized doors that don't seal (1948 home) and thinking that I'll try some of these tricks (techniques, rather). Thanks Tommy!
They really went above and beyond for that man's door. It might have had something to do with the fact that his house was already a construction site and he had tons of sweat equity which naturally motivates Tom to get in the action a little bit more.
Mr.Tommy, you should open a school where people can attend and learn all that you know to pass down your unique expert knowledge for a truly hands-on experience. What a gem!
House sat for a friend years ago. Small yard. They had an older electric mower with a lead acid battery. Just enough juice to do the lawn, but it was so easy. Just pull out the charging plug, push it out of the garage, squeeze the handle and go. No throwing out your back trying to pull start an engine that hasn't seen maintenance in 10 years. Very quiet too. I chucked a bit when they put on hearing protection for the push mower.
Tommy is a PROFESSIONAL VERY EDUCATED HE’S THE TYPE OF CONTRACTOR I WOULD TRUST AND RATHER HIGHER EVEN IF HE IS MORE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE HE SEEMS HONEST AND HE TEACHES YOU AND SHOWS YOU WHAT HE’S DOING AND WHY HE’S DOING IT
i own the Kobalt 80v system: Hedge trimmer, chainsaw, lawn edger, string trimmer, and backpack blower. All same battery. I love it. Been using for 2 years now. No fuel, no oil, no spark plugs, no mixing and draining, easier storage. Again, I love it.
I love this show.. mann.. watching it since my childhood as my dad was a master carpenter and i was learning from him. Now watching it as an adult with 3 children with MUCH more appreciation.
Tommy, I know that you know that you have a very special talent. No matter the problem you have an answer for it. you are quite a person God bless you my friend Steve (Shoey).
Is a blessing to Tommy or any of the guy's helping or building your home, i been watching them for so many year's my dreams were that if i ever want my house build i want them all to be involved. Thank you guy's you make many people happy because your work is perfect.
Awesome, I've got a few doors out of square and plumb, they don't meet up with the jambs evenly. One bit of advice I have for drilling the holes for the hinge screws, use a centerpunch first. I've had too many issues with drill bits walking around the location instead of drilling right on location. With a hinge you've really gotta get those holes lined up right, so a centerpunch is just the tool to ensure they do.
from someone that grew up in construction and worked in the labor force. The hearing protection always cracks me up. Never seen it on a job site once. But this is still my favorite show ever.
You're a fool not to use hearing protection with power saws and even hammers and drills. But ridiculous to use with a battery-powered trimmer, those things are whisper quiet.
I'm not sure about this one but I do it and it works out fine for preserving latex paint paintbrushes. When they're as clean as I can get them, I brush them several times over a bar of soap , shape them and then let them dry that way. When I need them again, I soak them the night before in water to get rid of the soap and use them clean and damp. I started doing that in college, when I was preserving my expensive oil painting bristles.
Best thing about an electric lawn mower, you can hand it on the wall without oil and gas going everywhere. I hang mine with the deck facing out so I can sit down to clean the inside of it and then it has a chance to dry which will extend its life.
A professional painter once gave me a good tip about paint brushes,when you are finished with your brush at the end of the day,load your brush with paint that you will be using the following day and put it into a plastic bag,the paint won’t harden and you are ready to go.
You can do that with your rollers too - wrap it in a couple of plastic bags (don't take it off the roller handle) and put it in the refrigerator. It will be ready to go back in the paint tray next morning.
I didn’t know a wire brush was bad for the brush. I’ve always done that to clean out dried paint after using the brush for a while. I assumed it was ok since all the brands sell a wire brush /comb tool.
I find Battery Operated Mowers are good on up to 3/4 maybe 1 acre of land where you are already mowing at least once a week so the grass is not tall. But if you are someone that is only mowing like every 2 to 4 weeks and the lawn tends to be Taller. Then Gas Power Mowers are much better Solution due to the power it gives to the blades. If anything, If you want to have a Battery Power Mower. Go for it, But, also Keep your Gas Power Mower as a backup. Battery Mowers are Getting better as the years go by and maybe in another 10 years they might even be On par with Gas Mowers.
@@Kevin-mp5of yeah I hear ya.. I would have approached that job a bit more modern, obviously.. But cool to see anyways. I still carry a block plane in my tool bag if I need to ease something over or take a bit off an edge.
Hey tommy, nice video, but let us know what tool you are using. On the door segment it looks like your peanut grinder with a flap disc, am I right? I have never seen a angle dado router. One of those tools you almost never need. You know I remember when you went to Kevin's home to show him how to, I think remove wallpaper . Tell me has he improved to journeyman level yet? I see he wanted that corner router. ;)

@@brianglade848 nice to see something other than that.. no need to replace the whole unit sometimes. . And the term is "approach with" hope I helped to expand your vocabulary today
Please wear Safety Glasses and Hard Hat at all times. Prepare for the unexpected with using equipment sometimes an event unexpected happens while ride a mower or pushing a rock or debris you cannot see can be thrown and bounce back and hit you in the face or head without warning and usually defying logic does happen. Working at Dupont for 27 years I have seen the impossible happen . Please wear Safety Glasses and Hard Hat at all times 🙂.
the only thing I do not like about battery operated equipment is when the battery dies you have to stop a job and charge the battery rather the job is done or not so thats why I like gas powered equipment
@@MattDoyleMusicOhio I don't even remember where I found it😂 I did buy the machine and invested in a out 20 ft of each size plus I also bought the stuff you silicone in place.. The doir jamb I used it on gave me tons of problems because there was caulk in it. Envision routing caulk and expecting it to stay open. Needless to say I used the glue in stuff. That did work nice though and their graduating size system worked well for this 120+ year old doorway. I haven't used the rig since but, it like the domino... when you need it its priceless
An inch and quarter out of plumb! My goodness. Why not just reset the door jamb in the opening.? Just curious. Tommy knows better than I do. Chiseling out that big difference is probably not what I would have thought of.
I get the 2 inch of paint thing, but when you are triming a ceilling for hours, your brush is gonna get clogged, only way is to clean it every hour or so.
Don't really think it would take away or add too much to the door to render the weather stripping ineffective. The stuff is made to seal a fairly dependable range of space.
The methods that true professionals use to fix common problems are enlightening to home owners with the desire to do the job ourselves, but who have no formal training in this area, and we rely on This Old House to find out how to do specific repairs and projects. How does a young person in Massachusetts, for example, get the training and experience she or he needs to become a competent residential finish carpenter or a master of fixing these common problems quickly, efficiently and correctly, while meeting any applicable Building Code requirements? A show with a segment on this subject would be helpful to many viewers, including those who are young enough to just be picking a trade to follow and those older viewers who are thinking about making a mid-life career change, if such a segment has not already been shown.

How to fix screen door onto door jam that keeps falling off
That depends on why it keeps falling off.
If the screws are coming out of the door jamb, then you need to fill the holes and re-drill them.
You could also drill them out and insert dowels into them, then drill new holes into the dowels.
screw it back on, use larger/longer screws.. if the wood you are screwing into is shot, then deal with that first..
