I understand hiring a professional but people are lazy lol need to learn how too do shit tbemselves its cheaper and easier if people would be taught and learn but i get it some people would fall and splat or something i am Watchjng to learn and my partner wants to learn
You need to spray wd40 on your spring every fall because the rust causes breakage 50% of the time.
You never use WD-40 it dries faster and will cause rust faster. You gotta use lubricant goon
Why where the white strips not reused and just buy the glass it self? 9:09
I apparently don't have enough strength to get the trim pieces off. Any tips on how to do that?
Why not just use window glazing tape instead of silicone? It would make it much easier to replace if you need to do it again.
That's a good video bud thanks much
Where do you get those vented closure strips? I have the same style of roof and all i can find is the non vented ones
nice work cowboy,blessing🙏💕
You’re a natural teacher man. I really like the tip of leaving the tape measure up there
Thank you!
Very well explained..
Just replaced my bedroom window thanks to you!
I feel like Neo in the Matrix movie when he gets kung fu downloaded into his brain. "I know how to lay block"
Wow. Clean, clear, concise instructions for a beginner, telling me everything I need to know and nothing I don't. All without distracting music or graphics in the background. Well done sir. Well done.
Well thank you for the nice comment!
Thank You For Making This Video, Very Detailed & You're About To Save Me Alot Of Money, As I Have About 7 Windows To Do.
Thank you!!
Cool video,, your a good teacher 😊😊
Thank you!
How much did it cost you for the glass?
$70
@@MT_Homes where did you order the glass??
@aizenespiritu2053 I ordered it from my local auto glass shop.
Great video, wonderful craftsmanship 👍
Most excellent. You are a great instructor. Thorough and easily understood. Thank you!!!
Great and very informative video
You saved me dude ! I was gonna replace the whole unit because ive never had luck ordering a just the sash. Im gonna pull the broken sash, fit a piece of styrofoam in the frame for now, this way I can just walk into my glass guys place with the old glass and say make me one of these please...lol
Is tape always the best option for the new glass? I've heard some say silicone should be used, when and why would either one be better?
Thanks, Now I need to figure out how much to charge 🤑
Great video. Easy to follow. I like the shim measurement/notes tool. Going look into doing it my self. Thank You
Awesome. Thanks
Good video...music is aggravating as shit
That looks great. Nice job.
Thank you!
1000
That was cool!
Well done
First off I want to say I love the video boss thank you for the information I just had a question how do you find the measurement for each piece of gamble? For example I had a 10’ wide wall and was wondering how to find those dimensions.
Thank you. That’s a great question but unfortunately the answer is very complicated and would be difficult to explain here. I will put it in the list of video tutorials I need to make.
Saving this for when I have a wife that wants a shed 🙏
Great job this is what my wife wants for our yard the problem is I'm no carpenter but following you it could be possible thanks for sharing
How do you close off the bottom the the corner trims?
Am I impression correct that there are more than one kind of metal roof panel profile outthere? If yes, are there also a bunch of various form closure strips outthere for choosing one to match?
Thank you for your time
my other - unbroken spring had 218-25 stamped on the spring, made ordering the replacement easy
Great Video and Detailed Instructions !! .. Thank you
What is the item number . Want to make sure this the correct shoe
I updated the description with a link in it.
Very good video! Easy to follow instructions! THANKS
Thank you! Glad it was helpful.
Ive been watching a lot of these shed videos and im a newbie so forgive my ignorance. Do you need to attached the runners to the pads? If yes, how? If not, why not? Thank you!
No. In my area these sheds are considered portable and are never anchored down. If you live in an area with very high winds or codes require it you may want to anchor. If I want to anchor it down though I wouldn’t use pads like I did here. I would want an anchor rod or concrete pillar at least 3-4’ into the ground.
@@MT_Homes thank you!
That level of comprehensive practical advice is exactly perfect. Many thanks
Thank you!
You look like a professional tin knocker and you don't have an electric sheer
So the link has expired, is there an updated link? What’s the best sole pattern? Thanks
Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I replaced the link with the most similar on I could find. If you go to skechers’ website and type in “men’s vigor” it should pull up multiple options. The vigor line appears to have the same sole as I use.
Absolutely amazing video. This is what UA-cam is meant for!
Thank you for the tutorial, you made it look so easy.
You should’ve bet the ends over it makes it nicer looking job you don’t need that bent on the end
Are the 2x4 floor joists strong enough? Especially with only the 2 skid runners? I’m planning on building a 12x16 shed and was going to use three 4x4 or 4x6 skids and 2x6 joist 16 o.c. Or is that going to be way overkill? I will be putting at least 2 commercial zero turns in there over the winter.
My door is big and has two springs. Is it common for the springs to be different lengths. The one that broke is 22” and the other is 24”. I measured multiple times.
I'm new to all this, but based on my research, the spring that isn't broke still has tension and is probably the one measuring shorter. Both springs need to be completely decompressed for an accurate measurement.
@@The_El_Guapo Appreciate the reply, I paid someone to do it. Wasn’t t worth my time or safety to try to attempt.
@LukesGarage I removed both my springs last night. I was blown away to find out someone had installed a 24" spring on the right, and a 26" spring on the left. No surprise it was the 24" spring that failed.
@@The_El_Guapoboth time the longer one, which is on the right if standing inside the garage, broke on me. I replaced both. We opened and closed our garage door continuously and wore out the springs!
Great video but music is not necessary.
