    The cost of materials for casing both sides of this door was approximately $77.00 USD. That does not include the labor to install it, prep it, or spray it with a final coat. I would charge $550.00 to do everything- supply material, install, and finishing.

      You do realize he is also making a video while working right? This isn't his normal pace I'm sure.

      Thank you for adding material cost and your bid price. As a new contractor, that really helps. Love your channel! Amazing work!

      Joe T - You're a condescending guy and a bad employee, it seems.
      He's trying to teach and show people in this video. Speaking slowly, being deliberate, and repeating yourself are KEY when teaching. There's nothing in this video that could give you an idea of how fast he works when he's actually working. These videos are a separate project for him, he's even said in other videos that he only does them when he has extra time because he wouldn't be able to work at his normal pace and make videos.

      My old boss would literally run from inside the house out to the saw to try to finish the jobs fast and increase profit. I saw him always stressed out and he eventually got a divorce. It is really sad. I say that to say this, speeding through jobs is never good for this type of work. You will spend just as much time fixing mistakes. I am going really slow here. This took 4 hours to shoot the video and plan all the scenes. We had approval from the homeowner to take as much time as we needed. If I was normal paced this would have taken about an hour. Nothing wrong with working fast but also nothing wrong with working slow :) and I prefer to work slowly and comfortable. I don't charge by the hour. I charge by the job so it make sense.

    You are adding value in so many ways, not just showing us how a professional works but also you are a great roll model for the younger generation. There is a shortage of skilled labor in the work force and is not getting better. You are an example of a young man who has built a name and reputation for himself in the trades and that you can make a very decent living doing so. Love your videos they have taught this old dude how to do it right.

    100% unquestionably one of the best channels on TH-cam for this kind of work. You explain why you mean by each step quite clearly.
    I’m just a DIYer wanna be and I am wondering why you need a 7 1/2 miter saw along with your 12” miter saw for this job?

    Rich, thank you for doing this video. I have exactly the opening with the bullnose you described. At first I was intimidated by it but after watching you explain and do it, gives me the confidence to tackle it. Thanks again for your dedication and professionalism to the craft and providing us with your knowledge, cheers from Las Vegas.

  • @patjackson1657
    @patjackson1657 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    i love the tips and techniques you provide with your clear, understandable descriptions. My brad nailer bit me once, when I was installing cove moulding on the floor of a bathroom. I had changed to shorter brads, but was unaware that a single 2" plus brad remained in the chamber. That single long brad found its way through the moulding, the drywall and made a tiny hole in the pex line feeding the toilet. An expensive oops!

    @zacharyrisdell2368 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just want to say I really enjoy the videos you make. I am.a Contractor in upstate NY and I truly enjoy finished carpentry. A lot of your techniques are very similar to mine when it comes to preassembling casement for doors/doorways and windows. How you mark instead of measure and how you make sure everything runs together properly. Never used a Starrett gauge or a couple other of your other marking gauges but I've definitely added them to my cart on Amazon now. Really nice work. I'm glad to see great minds do great work no matter who or where they are. Keep up the excellent work!

    Hey Rich, great job again brother. You kept saying 13/16 for the reveal instead of 3/16, LOL, all good brother we all knew what you meant. I would have always put that up piece meal but I like your method of putting it all together and then placing it in place. It was nice that your opening was pretty square, that always helps. Hope you enjoy that new mitre saw, I keep eye balling that one for my next purchase. All the best, Al from Maryland

    Would be interesting to see a video of installing trim in older homes with out of square frames and walls. Installing base with damaged drywall behind from prior repairs and base installs. Rounded interior corners and installing miters. Trimming uneven floors, etc. Your videos are nice and informative, but I see a lot of newer homes. If you have jobs in old homes that have seen repairs, settlement, that would be a good video.
