![How To Cut Soffit [Two Ways]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/D2eGRY0x-8Q/mqdefault.jpg)
It's a good thing they can do a whole house in 10 minutes because that's about how long Ryobi tools last. Haha! Good video man, I'm getting ready to cut some aluminum siding and I had no idea how to do it without shredding the crap out of it.
The boss cracks a mediocre joke can hear the whole crew laugh from a distance lol just started watching your channel keep up the good work 👌🏼
hahahah I noticed that a few years ago...built me into the man I am today lmfao. those little phonies pretendin I'm funny
You save me tons of time. Got pole barn kit and gable came in ling sheet like yours. Did first one with tin snips. Not fun. Thank you I need the 101 tips.
That's awesome man I'm glad some people are taking some value from these videos.
2 sawhorses and a sheet of plywood would make life a lot easier for that boy, nice vid
Forget the haters man . Like the videos I have been doing these trades awhile but you can always learn something from the way another person does it . But please buikd these guys a cut table 😆 it would be in your best intrest he could probably do it in 4 min instead of 5 .
Grandmas slow but she's old CLASSIC JOB SITE SMACK love thank you for all the info sir and thank FOR YOUR SERVICE TO KEEP US SAFE 🇺🇸
4:03 Well, I guess I’m breaking out the dewalt for the next project….. Great method for sure!!!
Heck ya brotha nice video lol siding looks real good!! Good job yall👊
Thanks buddd
Merci :)
Yeah you cheap ass boss go buy a table, no just joking it would be a mess with all that soffit flying around in the air anyway. Quicker to just cut it on the tarp on the grass. I love your work guys. Nice to feel the pride on this side off the screen :-)
lol thanks. we do like it in on the ground anyway.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction We made a soffit cutting station out of wood with an area cut out for the saw to sit flush. It was 8' long and we kept it upside down as a shelf in the trailer. Thing was sick. Just threw it on a couple sawhorses and cut away.
Never new about blade backwards thanks!
Yes sir game changer on soffit
Old trick of the trade
Get that man a cut table set up. Save a guy's back and knees
Man I'd love a set up like that I have to cut each one with snips. Thanks for the videos dude!
Yall use aluminum soffit still? Havent seen that installed new in ever up here in New England. Is that a common application down there?
I haven't used nothing but vinyl soffit in many many years,
We use alumina in Michigan
Vinyl looks terrible after a few years and sags.
I cut the whole box at once don't even take them out cut right through the box after they're evened up don't know a faster and easier way. And it doesn't throw metal every where. With a 10 inch saw if not you have to flip box over to cut all the way through which isn't a problem
Your wrapping the whole house and fascia in metal?
You should make a video on how to quote prices
I can break down my own pricing for my area and my company but I'm creating a second channel for that kind of information and more about how to start a business etc. Everything you need to know
@@NWIVeteranConstruction that would be great. Thanks
@@albertofuentes8749 no problem
Just buy a non ferrous blade Dewalt has one for $15 it works great
Does it matter what kind of blade you use as long as you put the blade backwards?
You can buy a diamond blade too but yea for the most part. Just buy a cheaper wood blade, don't buy the extra teeth ones that are expensive. Regular old wood cutting blade
@@NWIVeteranConstruction❤
I had a guy tell me a few years ago rubbing candlewax on the blade it helps stop burs from happening 🤔
Right on man, also had a worker sick today but we still ripped a 85 bundle roof together and papered water tight, can u do a vid for the trim around windows for siding, and how do you do your final row of siding I heard there is clippers that you clip the last row of siding my dad did 20 feet of siding and he does not wanna go any higher so he is gonna make his son do it ( I'm not much of a sider so I gotta do it) this is not happening for the next few weeks when I become not so busy but if u can send me a vid or have questions about roofing I would love too help you
I need help
There's crimpers for siding at any home depot or menards. Maybe even your shingle supplier stocks them. You have to put a piece inside of your j channel for the crimps to catch. That piece is called Undersil trim or "UT". I'm getting ready to do a j channel video, but its tough to teach something that needs so much explanation in a work environment. I'm sure you know what I'm Like by now lol I got everything going on at once.
@@leighwhite9656 also, I do have a video on here of me doing a one man install. You seem likeyou catch on quick, just watching it should give you a good enough idea of what you're gonna have to do
What's the video called, thanks for getting back too me so quick, been a long day on a 5 layer RIP, who the fuck puts 5 layers on a roof, double cedar, 3 asphault
The fact he's doing all that cutting without hearing protection makes me cringe. A good recipe for industrial deafness over time. I used to work in the mining industry , and despite all the available hearing protection, guys would just ignore it and have severe hearing loss within a year or two. It's one of those oddities of the work place that people will put on masks for their breathing, gloves for their hands, safety glasses for their eyes, but because their hearing 'sounds' okay, won't put in ear plugs or muffs. Losing hearing is an incremental thing that people simply don't notice.
So, when he marked them all out, did he or you take into account the 1/8 the blade takes out? I guess there's enough coverage between the j channel and fascia to cover it up though.
Dude, you've got over a half inch of play, but 1/8 is only a problem when you make lines on the soffit or wood. If you set the saw fence, or mark on the saw to keep lining it up then it doesn't matter.
no ear protection for the kid?
What's size saw and soffit you using?
Answer ?
Why do you use aluminium soffit insted of vinyl
well at first, its the going rate out here, if you use vinyl, its considered cheap. also I assume aluminum lasts longer...I know it can get a little weathered but theres no expansion or contraction so in Indiana that's a good thing. we get brutalized year round
@@NWIVeteranConstruction interesting was just curious here in n.y its all vinyl
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Where at in Indiana are you? I'm In Griffith Indiana. I used to work for the Gluth Brothers, (my uncles) but now I do my own thing.
@@Hertzsogood219 I do in work in all nwi. Currently working in valpo.
@@NWIVeteranConstruction not true vinyl is much more durable and slightly more expensive
A Jig setup off the ground is a faster way to cut soffit. ✌️
When we cut soffit we leave it all in the box and cut it with a skillsaw with blade backwards
I've heard of that before too!
You should invest in a table
LOL not calling you a hater but see 4:36 and the importance of my words at 4:45
Can’t argue that chop saw worked well, but I tend to agree about the table. Make a track for your skill saw, have a old tape measure permanently fastened to one side. With very little practice one guy can cut a whole house in no time. Not hating. Love the videos. Just my opinion
@@ChrisMac87 I was talking about making exactly that today.
I Suggested that on his other video but he didn't like it because he says everybody that tries to help him is a hater.I have been around roofing, siding , framing , and total remodels for 45 years. Believe me one day when your back and knees hurt like Hell and you will wish you had listened to experienced people.He cant take any constructive criticism.
@@jerryriggan go read your other comments lol there's nothing constructive about them. You're the only person I've asked to unsub. Your negativity is through the roof. You've watched me shingle for 2 hours without taking a single break, and made 3 negative comments n one was to tell me that one nail wasn't close enough to the edge at minute marker 45:26 lmao. Theres no place for you Jerry. Unsub. I don't think he's a hater. I think you are. He just made a suggestion
We have a table made for cutting it with a skill saw this looks way faster
Yea you can chop through 4 at a time comfortably if it's facing the right direction
Cut table and a stop saves you from measuring and saves his knees 🤔
Yes I'm getting together a really cool one
Great until you attempt that with 16” aluminum soffit on a slide saw. Most aluminum soffit is 16” wide. No mitre saw will out rip that far.
Just the stuff from box stores. Use a skil saw that's what a lot of ppl do
Exactly, forgot to mention this only works on unusually narrow soffit, most jobs do it yourself folks would do are going to be with 16 -18" soffit panel out of big box stores that mitre saws can not fully cut. This video in reality is not really helping the folks who need advice
having flashbacks, thats funny dude.
How wide is the soffit
12 inches wide.
no big box store sells 12 " soffit panel of the shelf. This video is humorous but not really helpful
Good job cutting soffit bad job on vidio, parts of vidio made me dizzy
Bro love the videos but dam some people work better thier own way . Stop trying to act like the best and be appreciative of the workers u have that put up with u
no need for a cut table...but make your man a stop for repetitive cuts.
You are doing it wrong. You gotta cut up down, up down. Not in a stack.
I would fire a man that couldn't take the time to set up a miter saw stand and a set of horses with a piece of plywood on it for a work bench! Work like a professional you are being paid as.
cool story bro
Why do u always try to get the job done fast u r over whelming ur workers
I'm just speechless.... ur talking like this kid is a genius or so.something lol... this is all construction 101 dude... damn
And I'm not one of ur "haters".... ( cuz u take way too much time worrying bout them)... but jesus christ!!! ( blasphemy)!!!!!!
Why you always talkin shit. Unsub. This video ain't for people who know already.
@@romanreckless8263 he's giving the kid a vote of confidence. Nothing wrong with assured that you're doing a good job. Keeps the guy coming back the next day, the day after, etc.
Why comment negativity? Does ur life suck that much? Loser
clown construction very unprofessional look at scaffolding, a law suit waiting to happen, you to worried about being fast, then being smart, I would not do my guys like that safety first, where's the pump Jack's, clown construction at it's finest, you need to stick to roofing because you don't need to do siding all your videos I've seen are all amateur, sorry that's the way I'll fill,my siding guys laughed at this video, they said wth no way, if you would set up pump Jack's, with your materials on the back of your Jack's, that side with two guys ,and hour at the most, plus maybe thirty minutes to set up, that's metal, soffit, siding but anyway stay safe,
I can cut it 10 times faster. Cuase i use a real siding cut table 🤦🤦🤦🤦👎👎👎 and i can stand up. Not kneel on the ground. Buy some saw horses cheap o🤪🤪🤪🤪
