@user-ge2fb9fh2q user, I'm sure the soot is still there, encapsulated in OHIO SEALANT INC. qaud caulk still, being a top performer (not yellowing or cracking) nor has it leaked a drop, covering up that old lead paint on the exterior trim. Each window is done with pride and care, and is still there. I'm sure the owner didn't mind.

Eger, not really, you could, but it would be rough, thanks for watching!

Thanks john, glad you like that short video

Hi Shane, I just saw your comment, you can get new plastic strip, they are not too much money, I don't know if TAPCO is out of business or not, but I'm pretty sure there is an aftermarket one available, that should solve your problem... thanks for watching!

Yup, some guys have a six pack, I got a 30 pack

Hi Louis, with a Malco "zip tool"

Thanks, Javier, len

Thanks JP, I think a lot of these commenters are just trolling, but I learned on and off the job, in high and low dollar situations, with many different contractors, I'm just putting stuff out there as food for though, but thank you for a positive comment! Len

Hi ojb, I'm not really familiar with the Hardy siding, but thanks for watching and your comment, len

Thanks John, you're welcome, glad you liked it, Len

Hi One, the amount of window protruding from the OSB, is whatever a stock Andersen window has, I think that was a 400 series. On the other question, the owner wanted a farm house look with 4" trim exterior casing. Thanks, len

Very glad it helps

Hi Paul, it comes with three holes from the factory, but when cutting these to size, you lose a hole, use a Mason bit SLOWLY. Thanks Len

@@lendavidhart9710 thank you, Len!

Paul the new holes you drill, must be horizontally in line with the factory holes, and before it is on the wall, if you hit the shingle underneath with the nail, it will crack, I hope this helps...

Yes Anthony, it had the cables, but they sometimes still come down, I framed a new roof and bottom reconnected the cables, and put tension on them, even a little more, knowing it will sag again, I hope this helps, Len

Thank you, Mark, for your thoughtful words, I poured my heart into trying to do this work nicely. Len

Mark, I'm glad it helped out, thanks

If your piece has top and bottom flanges, off set them for strength

Jcp, watch the full length video on my channel.

Thank you Robert, I appreciate that, len

Thanks Wavalding, that camera man was free, my expectations were way to high...

Hi John Q, have you done this as well, or you are taking someone else's word for it

Dear John Q, I am not trying to be a wise guy, I am trying to get folks to think, these are things we have been told, or heard since we were in the womb..

@@lendavidhart9710 Who told you he is wrong?

@tjjones621 TJ, this video is not for people that believe the earth is round, it is for those who don't believe everything they hear, I hope that helps thanks you for your comment...

@@lendavidhart9710 Do you doubt that telescopes prove what John said?

Hey solider, I m good thank you for asking, but send me a text u don't have your number

Hello Bob, I think I'll hang on to it, but I have your comment if I change my mind.thank for watching and your comment

Anthony yes the worst part is getting the glass out, especially the stationary upper lite in the single hung thanks len

@@lendavidhart9710 Sometimes you can use propane torch to heat the adhesive. I have also used that sticky carpet protection film to keep glass from scattering.

@anthonyloran4442 Anthony or a heat gun, thanks

Thank you Zack, some pole barn builders predrill the panels like 6 at a time, but this was a set of double doors I was putting up, I didn't want any slack in the screw hole, because those panel were the only thing to keep the 2x4 door leaf frames square... thanks for stopping by, Len

Yeah Jean, everything is a hammer, especially when your working alone. Thanks, len

Thanks Keith, Len.

Hi John, I learned that from a guy one day, I thought like you, great idea, thanks for watching and your comment, I appreciate that

Yeah Anthony, I try to always stop the last 6 " and score from the other direction, but that hinge has seen it's fair share I didn't stop in time, but they are pretty beefy, thank you for Watching and commenting, len

Josesoares, no there are no hems on the "legs" of that trim, only flanges without a hem, on the bottom or top, that piece measured ⅞"X 2½" X 3⅝" X 1" in my opinion I don't need a hem on the top, and I could scribe some metal off the top leg, if it bottomed out on the roof edging, on the underside of it, I ALWAYS make a 1 foot piece from scrap 1st, so mess up on a scrap, rather than a 10 footer. I hope this helps, Len

Hi Farmer wood, no not really, he's just moody, that is the only thing him and me have in common, thanks for the comment, Len

Hi Jonblake,Jon Blake, a sill pan would work with a positive outward slope, that worked years ago, but now-a-days, prehung units are installed on top the subfloor, not cut into the floor joists like years ago, this door I put in was designed to shed water, using the drip edg sill it comes with and continous side casings

Thanks for watching John, Len

John, you're welcome, I appreciate the comment, Len
