    You should show people how you secure it as well. The average DIY person wouldn't know what steps to take to ensure that wrap doesn't move.

    What is the thickness of the MDF board you used to cut the four sides?

    might wanna round over corners with a 1/4" router bit. Sooner or later Little Johnny is going run into the pole.

      Doesn't little Johnny meet his maker rather quickly? That's one possibility if he doesn't learn some basic rules sooner rather than later!

      Lightning is not great, but it looks like MDF. With it being in a basement I personally would have primed it before install, especially the end sitting on the floor. MDF is easy to work with, but is VERY susceptible to moisture.

      @@moeadeeb2862 Yes it was MDF and I believe he even said that in the video too. Wouldn’t be too worried about moisture either in a finished basement and this looks like it was. Moisture issues are usually more of a problem with unfinished basements.

    The next homeowners are going to hook hammock on those false beams and break their back

    • @lennymiller8727

      Not a "false beam." It's just a wrap for a metal support that's literally holding up the house. Nobody's dumb enough to think they could hook a hammock up on a basement support beam.

    I like the method, and guess I'll do the same thing for top and bottom trim.
