Cole, just a thought - as an owner of a 80 y.o. house that has "custom blended" stained woodwork, SAVE all the pieces you don't reuse!!! You'll never be able to duplicate the stain if you ever make alterations in the future.
Hello from southwest Florida DC put the u-joint caps in the freezer (where you keep the reese's at lol) for 45 minutes or so makes caps slide in really easy, like putting whale snot on them. Old timer learned me this . I suck a English even though they made me take it. 45 years ago. I'm going to the freezer for a reese's now.
I did a similar reno on a house and I can say that taking the extra time to pull out or cut off all the nails on trim and moldings makes all the difference. Also each set of wood from a door frame, I bundled with a small roll of stretch wrap and that was a life saver.
@@trentw3614 - well you pry against the knife and not the trim. A pry bar directs to much force in one area. The knife is thin enough to slip behind the trim and gives more surface area to the pry bar.
Also,start in the middle,not the ends. Many times the trim is installed w/ a 'spring' action,just slightly longer to assure a tight fit. Although surely trim has shrunk over 100+ yrs. still good practice im my book. And,PROCEED SLOWLY w/ care and conviction. Anything you break,glue together immediately. My 2 cents. 🙂✌❤
Suggestions: When you pull the nails out of your trim--pull them from the backside so all you have are round holes on the finish side instead of chips of all sizes. Broken trim is easily glued and clamped back together. To keep the original finish look I recommend Formby's Furniture Refinisher--expensive but worth it.
@@sammyparrish8651 Linemen pliers? I use Channel Locks tongue and groove pliers. Also, if you can see the heads of the nails I've used a nail set to drive the nails through the trim.
Cole, my first thought when I woke this morning was "I really hope Cole has the foresight to keep some bedrooms and not remodel them all away!" Two master suites plus the attic is a bit of overkill. You might not be thinking about a family any time soon but I'll bet you will need those bedrooms someday, just sayin! This is coming from a California Grama.
Just a heads up, duck tape and a black sharpie are your friends when dealing with trim. Make sure label the rooms they came out of and possibly what order you took everything off in. Makes putting the puzzle back together a lot easier.
I respect you for previous videos giving a call out for prayers for Larson Farms You Tuber, Chet Larson and his awesome family and TH-cam channel sensation for his farm operations. The sudden passing of his 25 year old wife is so sad, Life can be too short somedays. Peace, as I know you were You Tuber friends, and friends.
Cole, as a carpenter please save all that old trim, i hope you recreate the old school trimwork with modern touches, nothing better than Cornice and flat stock door headers. Coped inside corners and eliminate the plinth block of old, stains are much higher quality these days those base boards sanded and restained would look fantastic with old grain
i love the remodel videos. at first i was thinking "oh no thats a lot of trim to keep organized"....but then i remembered how organized you got with the shop..... this is a breeze.
Anna is still the BEST!!!!! Plaster and laths. I done that one time to my bathroom. What a mess. All the other rooms, I just put drywall over the top of it. Good luck. I sure hope that the remodeling project turns out. It will be so nice when the house has all new insulation, electrical and plumbing. 😀😀😀😀
Great video into a 'day in the life', loved it. Congratulations on the upstairs 'gettin er done' attitude. Once completed, the upstairs will be magnificent. Your Grandpa would be so very proud of you, your work ethics and in loving his home.
DC, a way to clean out the truck of dust and other things is to use a leaf blower. Just open all the doors and windows and turn it on. Well maybe not inside a building but you get the idea. Have a great week and thank you
Keep the Larson Farms family in your thoughts and prayers with the passing of Nikki. She was a bright light that brought smiles to all who knew her personally and through the videos she did such a wonderful job editing, she will be missed.
Hi Cole before you move the trim pull the nails first . pull them thrue the trim . If you hammer them out you will have huge holes to repair. then tape into bundles for later time when you can reinstall
Hint on removing nails from old woodwork: PULL the nail out from the back, don't try to pound it out from the back and pull from the front, it'll break the wood on the front if pulled. Also, when time to re-attach the wood, the boards are hard and will split if you try to drive a nail into it, you'll have to drill small pilot holes first, then drive the finish nail in.
Hey DC noticed your vice opens but doesn’t move the jaws(you have to pull it by hand) if you unbolt it from the bench and flip it over. Then you can reattach the bolt in the bottom that holds the threaded block inside the vise and it will open and close with the handle( no more need to pull the jaw back) it’s an easy five minute job.
I get anxious thinking about dust this days! I have been living in and updating the old plaster from my house snd I highly recommend a company called zip wall! You can find there products on Amazon and they have everything you could want for keeping dust contained to work areas!
@@fastsetinthewest He said the electric wiring needs redoing ..no insulation in the walls the plaster is falling off and he wants to reconfigure the rooms .
You know if you put a box fan (or Two) in the windows blowing out you can create a negative air pressure situation to keep more dust from getting into the other parts of the house . Just a thought .
Cole they make zippers for plastic sheeting doors. You tape the plastic sheeting in the doorway apply the zipper then cut your opening. Helps control the dust immensely. Search “zipwall”
its nice to watch some motivated, decent, real people. No BS drama, no bad language. Just hard working folk! Oh and Chile and grill cheese, what time is dinner? *question: is that trim going back up? I see you writing on it so I think yes. I would cause it is B.E.Autiful.
Cole to help with the dust problem get some thin plastic sheeting you can find it at Home Depot and some painters tape. Hang the sheeting to help keep the dust in the area you want the dust to stay. Like cover the doors in the rooms. that should help out a lot. I Loving the updates on the Demo BTW. Keep it coming Man.
We renovated our old farm house with almost identical wood. We pulled the nails through the back and cleaned up all the wood, sanded and revarnished. (A lot of work as you can imagine). It looked like new when we were done. If you try to push the nails out the finished side the wood splinters. It’s petrified wood, harder and dryer than stone. You will love your home when it’s done!
When I pulled up my trim, I simply cut the nails off on the back using a heavy duty, long-handled end cutting pliers. The long handles give you the leverage to make the job easier. Worth their weight in gold, but cost only ~ $20.
No he looks tame.The book I saw years ago Walcreatures of Myrtle Beach. I have never laughed so hard! Now his brother socks & sandals are a major No No on the East & West coasts.
There is another young couple doing their. I believe 100 year old house and he wear's his pj's in every thing he does. I can't think of the name of their channel off the top of my head. They don't post every day.
I use negative pressure when tearing off plaster or sanding drywall. A box fan or two in the windo drawing out in the room you're working, let air in through a window on the other side of the house. You may need to prop the room door open just a little bit to get good air flow. You have to choose the windows carefully based on wind conditions, otherwise the dust might come around and suck back in an open windows.
Tip for pulling nails. Use a pair of diagonal wire cutters or a vice grips and pull the nails through the back. If you hit them out they tend to splinter old dry wood like you have.
Cole- nice job marking trim even if some is not going back in same location. Use a pair of END CUTTER pliers to pull nails in same direction as it was driven in. It will leave filler putty in place and not splinter like it does if you bang them back out. Tape each room of trim together with blue painters tape. Cuts time handling trim in half. Its going to be awesome when you get some of the walls down. G
As a guy who just got done stripping plaster and lathe out of a house I hate to tell you that most of that trim will not go back where it came from . Plaster and lathe is thicker than the 1/2" sheetrock you replace it with so door frames will be to wide window frame will stick out from the wall and baseboard will be any where from a 1/4" to 1/2" to short
Thanks for another great video. You are coming right along with your house. Getting all that trim off is not easy. I noticed you marked it all. Good for you when it is time to reuse some of it. Beautiful woodwork by the way. Clearing the plaster will be a hard and dirty job. Hang in there. Dad, you are doing great on the pickup brake job. Usually a hard job to get all the pieces back together. Know you will get it done ok. You all are keeping busy. A chili meal sounds great. Enjoy. You all take care and be safe. Thanks. Iowa farm boy from years ago.
If you tear out the lath and plaster the new drywall will be thinner making the trim you take off not long enough to reinstall. unless you shim out the trim/casing in your house after redoing all the drywall
Trim stinks. I just got done taking mine off. It's tedious but the resulting crispy paint lines are sooooo worth it. It's nice to watch somebody else my age renovating a house while I work on mine.
God bless ya kid. Saving that trim is awesome. Today money it would be well over 50 grand to buy, make, and install all that hardwood. Great Stuff Brother
Hi Cole. Great Video. Don't pull the nails you will destroy the Face. The best thing I have found and I do a lot of refurb is to grab the cordless grinder and just grind them off from the back. Takes seconds.
Cole.Quick tip on getting the nails out of that old trim thats if you want to re use it. Pull the nails through the back side with a large side cutter.
Oh, a little New Holland square bailer. Spent a lot of time dealing with those things when I was a kid. We used to use a New Holland Stack Liner to pick them up, which was handy.
It kept me up last night, Nicki was so young. She & Chet went through so much last year, started to look like the treatment worked. Chet stayed at the farm during planting season just to protect her immune system, then this. Absolutely devastating news. Poor Chet, they were just starting their lives together & he’s a widower. It’s killing me, but I know he’s surrounded by his family & the Big Swede. Farmers help each other in time of need, I’m sure they’ll help out on the farm while Chet grieves.
Y'all need to try cinnamon rolls with your chili!!😋😋 A Colorado favorite!! I LOVE watching the Cornstar Family. Who was that cute new character that DC had with him?? Super cute fluff-ball!!!💗💗💗
Hey Cole, you can get a vacuum that is for pellet/wood stoves that will run and filter the air. They are about $100. I love ours and it doesn't put the dust back into the air
Daddy Cornstar you all should plan a weekend in Canada at the Calgary Stampede sometime. It’s literally an amazing event which millions attend each year. It’s always in July so not sure how busy you all are at that time of year
Cole, my question is why demo the interior walls? The only thing you need to worry about is exterior walls and ceiling unless you are redoing electrical!
Cornstar and Wranglerstar... the only videos I always watch. I appreciate the work done and the way it’s done. Always great content. It’s a “star” thing a guess
Oh how I enjoy your videos and I am so happy you are really taking on the restoration of the big farmhouse. Alot of young people just want it gone and move on to new... these things are treasures... One more thing, Cole, please don't take this the wrong way but I cannot wait to see your hair cut like you used to wear it... just not a good look for you, in my opinion anyway... take care and cannot wait to see the porch videos..
Make a rough sketch of the room then number your sketch and base/case accordingly...much easier than writing a long description on the trim. Bonus-you can stack them in numerical order to ease reinstall. If you’re eliminating a wall just write delete or extra on the piece.
Insulate with closed cell foam, see Spray Jones youtube for the many reasons why, no condensation, increased house integrity in tornadoes and vast heating cooling savings and comfort. 2 to 3" is all needed. In the real world the batting is half r rated value.
@@mommacs6159 make sure Cole puts some temporary braces in there so the roof doesn't cave in while remodeling. that flex when they jumped in the attic in that other video was sketchy!
Just a suggestion, if you take out the nails now they won't scratch the other boards or stick you. You can pull them out from the back by using channel locks.
Most days I wonder where you find the time to post to youtube. what with farm work, Million dollar bin site construction, clearing out the auger grave yard, remodeling the upstairs of your home, keeping the grass field looking good, working on the front porch, sorting through all the old stuff in the grove. And then all the stuff that you don't report on. You are one busy person.
Lucky, you're baseboards were installed after the hard wood floors, in my house, they were installed before the floors went down, making it very difficult to remove.
Our hard wood floors which were terrible (they had tack strips every sixteen inches causing HUGE dips in the floor) were put down BEFORE our walls. 😳😬 It was near impossible to fix our floors.
Cole, when pulling the nails out of the trim, get a pair of bull nose pliers, grip on the nail on the backside, and pull out from the backside of the trim!
Cole I have a tip. Pull the nails through the back of the trim with a pair of channel lock pliers and it won't chip the finish on the front side if ya didn't know!! Ok🤣
A denailer tool will make quick work removing the nails from the boards. A Box fan in the hallway or stairway window blowing in and a box fan the work room window blowing out helps control the dust in the house
Cole, just a thought - as an owner of a 80 y.o. house that has "custom blended" stained woodwork, SAVE all the pieces you don't reuse!!! You'll never be able to duplicate the stain if you ever make alterations in the future.
GREAT ADVICE!
Sometimes done right doesn’t happen around here. Classic! Thanks DCS
At current lumber prices that’s probably 100k of trim 👍
not even close.
@@JCrook1028 he was joking!
Hello from southwest Florida

I am constantly amazed at how many skills your family has in addition to straight up farming. Love your channel, especially the house renovation.😃
When prying trim put a large putty/taping knife behind the trim and pry against the knife edge and not the trim.
Your saying left or right vs up and down? Cause that’s what I was thinking
@@trentw3614 - well you pry against the knife and not the trim. A pry bar directs to much force in one area. The knife is thin enough to slip behind the trim and gives more surface area to the pry bar.
Exactly! I restore homes & furniture. I cringed every time he pulled that beautiful trim! To buy that aged trim would cost a fortune
@@chrissyfrancis8952 Yeh that trim cant be replicated.. they just do not make it like that anymore..
Also,start in the middle,not the ends. Many times the trim is installed w/ a 'spring' action,just slightly longer to assure a tight fit. Although surely trim has shrunk over 100+ yrs. still good practice im my book. And,PROCEED SLOWLY w/ care and conviction.
Anything you break,glue together immediately.

As an ex painter of 10 years. Can confirm pulling nails out the back is the best way.
Pulling the nails out the back of the wood is best. I use linemen pliers, they grip the nails the best and youhave good leverage.

Make a rough sketch of the room then number your sketch and base/case accordingly...much easier than writing a long description on the trim. Bonus-you can stack them in numerical order to ease reinstall. If you’re eliminating a wall just write delete or extra on the piece.
Nave has stepped on a nail already, but is walking around a construction zone in just socks. 🤔
Safety first!
Insulate with closed cell foam, see Spray Jones youtube for the many reasons why, no condensation, increased house integrity in tornadoes and vast heating cooling savings and comfort. 2 to 3" is all needed. In the real world the batting is half r rated value.
I think that’s the plan !
@@mommacs6159 make sure Cole puts some temporary braces in there so the roof doesn't cave in while remodeling. that flex when they jumped in the attic in that other video was sketchy!
That trim and those floors are amazing!
Just a suggestion, if you take out the nails now they won't scratch the other boards or stick you. You can pull them out from the back by using channel locks.
Most days I wonder where you find the time to post to youtube. what with farm work, Million dollar bin site construction, clearing out the auger grave yard, remodeling the upstairs of your home, keeping the grass field looking good, working on the front porch, sorting through all the old stuff in the grove. And then all the stuff that you don't report on. You are one busy person.
Cole, please tell Nave I'm still waiting for those monster cookies.
Lucky, you're baseboards were installed after the hard wood floors, in my house, they were installed before the floors went down, making it very difficult to remove.
Our hard wood floors which were terrible (they had tack strips every sixteen inches causing HUGE dips in the floor) were put down BEFORE our walls. 😳😬 It was near impossible to fix our floors.
Glad to see that Cole is in the Land of the Left-handers!
I know what his problem is, he's left handed using a right handed hammer LOL
No, it's wearing the crocks and socks working lol
Cole, when pulling the nails out of the trim, get a pair of bull nose pliers, grip on the nail on the backside, and pull out from the backside of the trim!
who's little Australian shepherd pup is that ?? :-) ....."and done right don't always happen around here" xD
DC when you jack up a piece of equipment always put the jack handle up so others don't trip over it love you and Cole's content
Cole I have a tip. Pull the nails through the back of the trim with a pair of channel lock pliers and it won't chip the finish on the front side if ya didn't know!! Ok🤣
Sill and apron window trim is my favorite old farm houses had the best trim.
A denailer tool will make quick work removing the nails from the boards. A Box fan in the hallway or stairway window blowing in and a box fan the work room window blowing out helps control the dust in the house
