As my dad always told me..."you're fine on the rough work, but rough on the fine work". We all have our specialties.
Maybe you, speak for yourself
@Liberty AboveAllElse 🤣🤣👌🏾
Can't count the # of x I've had to explain to a client that I'm a framer, NOT a trim guy/cabinet maker/drywall expert/ electrician/plumber/tile installer, etc, etc etc. Moving a light, doesn't make you an electrician. If your contractor says "I do it all" run away.
Ass wipe let's see what words are not permitted. I guess the word ass wipe is ilegal here on ChinaTube.
@Liberty AboveAllElse 😂😂😂😂👍 good one
I'm a carpenter in New Zealand, and we have to do it all. We don't have "framers" and "finshing guys" here so we're lucky to learn it all. Those joins were trash, obviously whoever did it doesn't take pride in their work! Keep up the awesome content!
And you take twice as long and most of you don't know how to build roofs or hang doors traditionally
@@stephenshaw9417 says who?
@stephen shaw I'm a carpenter from the uk, we also do it all and I bet that I can calculate,cut and construct a traditional roof a hell of a lot quicker and to a higher standard than you can pal!
Chur my bow
@@stephenshaw9417 what is the importance of speed? to end up with some chitty production house built in the usa? framing not great, finishing not great, etc.
I did architectural mill work in my younger days and installed unpainted, unfinished trim in historic homes. My mentor used a grinder as you do for copes. I’ve never seen anyone else do that since then. Everything had to be absolutely precise. That was the key! No filler was allowed! Outstanding work my friend.
and it still looked shit.
@@UberAlphaSirus _"and it still looked shit."_
This comment annoyed me so I finished watching the boring video..
IMO, this comment is 100% accurate..
It's better than I could do, but far below what I would accept.
I would hate seeing it every minute of every decade I lived there.
3:47 You dont have to take into account that pull on the tape measure. That's why it moves in and out. Its to take into account the thickness of the metal on the pull for when you have it butted up against something or have it hooked on the edge of something and are pulling it. It's when you try to account for it that your measurements will be wrong. It moves out when you hook it on something to make up the difference so that your measurements are always the same either way.
That says it all. He replaced shit work, for midway work. But thats what painters are for.
@@UberAlphaSirus god bless instantbond super glue and MDF
@@UberAlphaSirus......Caulk and paint makes you what you ain't.
@@snafubar5491 Do your best and chaulk the rest.
@@osvaldovasquez9048 what if you're best leaves 1/2 inch?
The good news: I learned a lot from watching this channel....the bad news: now I have to go back and re-do all the trim in my house
😂😂😂😂😂😂
nobody looks at trim. don't worry about it
lol, same here. I was thinking my trim was just fine:P but after seeing this. I can not unsee it annymore:P
Do your best caulk the rest lol as long as your using white after you caulk everything you want notice any mistakes
Same here lol
I said it before - I'm 69 and my Dad had his own business where he did custom cabinets & trim work (did occasionally do framing for extra money) and if he was alive today he would be awe-struck at your tools...laser levels, nail guns, hand grinders, etc. Back then ALL coping was done with a Coping Saw, All nailing was done with a hammer (my job as a 9+ years old was to follow behind with a hammer & nail-set to set the nails in the trim work). Be thankful you're living today and not back then. :)
My dad was a perfectionist and I know he would be an admirer of the quality of your work.
hey I still use a coping saw
@@StellarSurge Yes! I agree but put it in perspective. When the P.C., calculator, etc. first came out NOT EVERYBODY immediately had one. This generation is so used to buying the newest thing as soon as it comes out that they think it was ALWAYS that way.
@@StellarSurge with that logic, everybody today should be driving around teslas but thats not the case, using something that works and works well is all that matters
Coping saw takes a lot of work, flap disc was cool.
@@StellarSurge were you born a prick or just get that way being locked in mom's basement all day?
Dude is a surgeon with that angle grinder. Most impressive part of the video for me.
How do you even get the markings to make those “cuts” w the grinder?
@@brandonjensen5292 The tan part you see is the cut end of the stock cut at an angle. If you were looking at the board from the top down, you would see it come to a point. He uses the angle grinder remove the point back to the line created by the paint. Most people would use a coping saw to make the cut, unless you're awesome like this guy.
that part takes skills. the other parts you can do with the right tools and attitude (if you actually care about how it turns out in the end).
@@mallison117 Coping saw if you do finish as job is way faster like 10 seconds flat.
@@asillynertasillynert2204 I use a coping saw too because it’s quicker but the grinder sure did look satisfying lol
Even as a framer I would never leave my work looking like that
Beautiful work! I retired from painting because I got tired of hearing "the painter will fix it". I tell you it would have been shear joy to work on a job with a true craftsman.
That’s right
Haha that’s a classic! They guys putting up drywall with a not so great fit. “F it the painter will fix it!”
That's your job you are a painter. Just like a finish carpenter has to put up with bad drywall and bad framing.
@@mjolnirswrath23 Amen!!
@@garyolsen3409 That's why I always did all my own framing, drywall, trim and paint. I couldn't leave anything for the next guy because the next guy would be me.
You dont have to be a Jack of all trades.. just a master of one trade.. it's all carpentry.. some guys are just trim guys some guys are just framers and some of us hold the title of carpenter.
Then there are cabinet makers. The difference, 1/16 of an inch
i agree. i'm a dutch carpenter and we do everything from framing a house to trimming it and it is all like it should be. that is just how we learn it here
Actually it's under finish carpentry. Which from what my mentor told me in the 80"s is suppose to be the highest form of carpenter. And I'm in my 60's so the work is easy and pays more.
from tree to trim & cabinets & furniture , from foundation to full finish including from well to septic, & transformer to fixtures & outlets, not too mention painting, flooring, door & windows, kitchens & baths & still learning on the job 30+ years....I'm not just a carpenter, I'm a general contractor :) quality of product all depends on what the client spends.
As a tile setter of 18 years this is true
As a painter, I'd love to receive your work for painting. some of the crap carpenters hand us is an absolute sin. that's tight work my friend.
I have had to ban many carpenters from using a caulk gun. They fill them gaps up with white tubes of silicone and when it's time to paint Its now my job to remove it all and caulk it right. Unbelievable the shit I've seen. And it all rolls downhill too so every mistake and fuck up the carpenters make falls on the painters to make look good. It's nice to see this guy who does nice finish work and does know how to paint, although it seems like he sprays everything.
This video was so healing. 😂 Seeing those boards was actually kind of upsetting and then seeing the fix was so flipping nice.
So refreshing to see that there are still a few professional tradesmen alive and working. Do it right every time and take pride in your work.
And BTW i leveled up my trim skill cause of you. I now do all my copping with a sanding disk. Super clean every time
That flap disc cut was other worldly. Looked better than most art.
I love your channel. Thanks for taking the time to share. I am going to do all of the baseboards and door casings in our home reno...and your detailed videos have got my confidence soaring!!! Again...Thanks for sharing. Your work is amazing!!
That first bull-nose corner was satisfying to watch
Crei que era interesante
@libra8a You can also stay square where the trim is and then right above where the trim ends transition to a bullnose. Then the drywaller gets to deal with it. This way isn't too bad either. Do a google search for bullnose transition corner.
One of the biggest things I have learned from your channel is the use of CA Glue. That took my scarf joints in crown molding to a different level.
Built By Design can’t get ca glue to work on wood. Mdf yes, wood no.
That stuff is amazing
@@jeffpower6473 we use it on everything, works perfectly
I know a trim carpenter who's favorite saying is " ah the painters will fix it"
So do I. I'm a painter lol
Or try your best caulk the rest
And the plasterers will fix the framing 👍
And if there's any scratches when the jobs all done blame the electricians...
@@charleyweinhardt ALWAYS the electricians.
As a painter we used to joke "When you see a carpenter caulking something you know he screwed up."
I really enjoy your videos and explaining each steps to take in details. Your honesty will pay off. One of my brothers has been doing cabinetry for 40+ yrs. and is detailed like you. 🎸
Masterful! I've had pros tell me my DIY work is excellent. It makes a difference if you care about your work - no matter who you are.
Caulk and paint make me the Trim Carpenter I ain’t,.
Words I live by.
The actual saying goes .. A LITTLE PUTTY, A LITTLE PAINT MAKES A CARPENTER WHAT HE AIN'T.. I'm not a painter I'm a fine finish specialist, or exotic seagull trainer depending on who I talk to
Similar saying in my field...
Grinder and paint makes you the welder you ain't.
Duct tape and caulk is the DIYers essentials. LOL
@@joshbulski3905 It's actually caulk and paint make a carpenter what he aint. It's all thensame BS though.
I like your honesty & your humbleness of course the great work you do thanks for taking the time to show us how it’s done the right way
Thanks for the tips in this video - very helpful. I’ll be doing my own finish carpentry on baseboards and casements. Just doing straight flat 1x6 & 1x4 MDF boards -> farmhouse style. No coping needed & thankfully, pretty straightforward. Not even any mitered corners on doors/windows...since that’s the style. Seriously entry-level stuff.
I just ordered crown stops for my miter saw from your recommendation. That‘ll make the cuts easier/better, for sure. My dad, an engineer who does fine woodworking as a hobby says he thinks I’m detail-oriented enough to do this “easy” finish carpentry.🤞🙄 lol I do a lot of my own stuff, but I won’t do a crap job, so I call the pros in when I need to. The problem I run into is that I don’t know what I don’t know...like using the crown stops. The tools of the trade learned through experience that I don’t even know about. Makes my novice job harder. Which is why I watch like 4200 videos on the task before I start.😂
Oh, well...there’s always a more qualified person to do it....a real carpenter who’s just a phone call away. I’ll try my absolute best, but glad I’m not locked in to finishing it if I get in over my head. What looks easy...seldom is.
Last, MUCH respect to you guys who do good, detailed, skilled work that DIYers think they can replicate without your experience level. They come to realize your skill when they have to call you in to “fix” their work.
"You have to take into account the pull on the tape measure end"
False, that thing wiggles to account for it's own thickness in two situations, butting into something and pulling from something.
You are correct
I was going to say the same thing. This is a true statement. Always invest in a good tape.
@@nolandrutledge6944 chill out, go to @3:40 and answer your own question
Yes sir
@@franciscolupianlci237 literally any tape has this feature
I’m a 35 year drywall pro teaching drywall on my channel. I’ve done a fair amount of trim and I did a lot better than that, but I’m no trim carpenter. I learned several things from this video and your fancy crown corner return video so thanks.
If I can offer some advice, lock your focus and use a high aperture number so your auto Focus isn’t hunting so much.
Thanks again
The contractor I work for, we do everything from the ground up. We do call in the hvac guy but everything else we do a great job on and we're only a small company of 5 guys.
No wonder yall be having leaky roofs
I cut my teeth working for an architectural milling company who had clients with very deep pockets. I was very young and had no idea how that job would shape my path in life. We once did a job the size of a two car garage that had 38 different profiles. We were a vertical company so I made the templates, molder knives and ran stock for each one of them. I did not realize at the time this experience was forging me in fire. Most people think I'm a woodworking wizard now because of the unique things I build yet I still get excited about doing them after 40 years. I tell you this story to encourage your pursuit to do any job the right way. There is no substitute for experience while striving for excellence because over time it builds a level of confidence that will allow you to tackle any project you can image. It is heart warming to see such a young man doing excellent work
and sharing it with others. God Bless!
I was a finish carpenter for 16 years with 4 years under my own license. I really like your video because I ran into that problem all the time. Running base directly on the concrete or tile is a pain in the butt for inside corners! An old guy showed me a trick of wadding up newspaper to pack in behind the lower portion of the baseboard so that glue had time to dry up and the baseboard didnt push in when nailed along the bottom. It seemed like the drywall guys didnt apply an even amount of taping compound down where the wall meets the floor.
I take my combination square with the ruler sticking all the way up to see where the plane of the wall comes square down to the floor. Then I put a drywall screw into the bottom plate and screw it in so it lines up with my square. Then the bottom corner is supported and won't flex in when you nail it.
@@daveyjones7391 great idea!! Hopefully lots of people see your reply
@@daveyjones7391 thats a nice trick. I've always used paper to shim it out but I like that better, will be using it on the next job I do!
@@liquerinfrnt Awesome. Glad the tip can help other people out. I couldn't tell you how many times it's been useful.
@@daveyjones7391 Yup, exactly what I do. If you put it on a slight angle you can mush the back of the board into the sharp edge of the screw for some fine adjustment and/or just twist the screw in and out. Otherwise flat head is a hard stop which is also fine. Remember where that screw head is because it sucks to hit with the air nail.
They say you learn something everyday, I have always used a coping saw, I like your coping method
I was pretty impressed, I've worked construction my whole life and never seen that.
As a painter for half my life, thank you for taking the time to do edges right. Also that flap disk use for coping the back cut of that base wasn't expected. Keep up the good work!
Okay, I’ve only been apprenticing for a little over a year in finished carpentry. But my man did not even check to make sure it fit before he glued the first pieces! SKILLS!!
Looks like when I do trim, I’m aspiring to be better at it this year. Practice and more practice!
Also I love these kinds of videos, I know you’ve showed doing trim a million times but it never gets old watching a skilled craftsmen.

You have the hands of a surgeon the way you handle that grinder! I thank you for your videos they have helped me out big time. You explain things in a manner that I can understand and you go into detail without taking a long time to explain. Mahalo Nui Loa! Aloha from Hawaii!
I have been a carpenter for 30 years and you just blew my mind with that inside corner cut. 👍
I thought it was beautiful .. I have 40 years exp .. The Crapenter's doing trim were considering the fluctuation in the moisture content of the MDF base and allowed for movement .. If it fits too tight .. The painters won't caulk it .. They were thinking ahead .. A Trim Trowel available on Amazon dispenses a backing rod for expansion and at the same time fills the void with a 3 tubes of caulk ..
You have been a carpenter for 30 years and never heard of coped inside corner?
luis dominguez yeh nice one!! I was talking about the way he did it.
@@IVORY123100 dont worry, I appreciate your comment
All 30 year experience carpenters ,it's a scribe joint and should always be used for internals , from 41 year carpenter
Just saying
Your steady hand for that coping method was like watching a good street artist perform their craft. Stopped me in my tracks. 👍🏻
I have tried this and it is a lot harder to keep a steady hand than he makes it look. I'm no pro and was working on my own home but a good ole coping saw is easier for me to operate. lol
It was mesmerizing to be honest. He got SOOOOOOO close w/o going over. One handed too. Mad skills.
@@ijuggle42 Same here. I gave it a try, and it just made me more in awe of his skill.
watching it reminds me a lot of my job, as a stone countertop fabricator. fabricating corners, sinks, and profiles, using a grinder and diamond tooling in the same way.
Bro!! I studied and got certified in all levels of forms of carpentry, I’ve done so much framing but I’ve always loved trim and finish carpentry more!!! I’ve learned more in two videos than in school!! Thanks for the videos!
I mean, just take your time and watch finish carpentry TV. It's not rocket science. It's definitely not easy, but this guy makes it easy to follow for us DIYers!
That gives you a nice set of "before" and "after" pics for the "Why should you hire us?" section of your website... :)
Yasss it will help promote, more $$$ more videos with freee knowledge!!!
Probably fitted it shit as advertisement. 10 mins to install whack mdf board that costs peanuts, but the video generates much more in revenue. Clever
@@TheGreg2710 Wow. Cynical.
I like it. :)
A good carpenter frames his house thinking about the trim details, that way his trim job is clean and easy. Too many piece hacks that only know.."....nail on the x..MARK RED!
That's actually a good point. In Denmark carpenters are pretty much expected to be able to do everything. Thats also a reason why I will take the time to do things like put in plywall behind the drywall in kitchens; to have something solid to hang the cabinets from, a few weeks later.
Doesn't matter when the corner bead goes on it changes your miter. I use a miter Gauge to make sure some drywall guys sand more than feather.
Instantly learnt things from this video. Really liked the idea of using the grinder instead of coping saw. I see so many people just try and do a angle cut in the corner then fill with caulking!!!!
True professional at your craft and it shows. Nice to see there are still people that care about their work.
That close up shot at 6:20 was dope. Like to see the precision hand work. I find myself doing a lot of circular drain cuts in tile and stone by hand as well which made the craftmanship stand out to me. A1 job bud
I agree!
Have done drain cutouts with a grinder...people thought i used a hole saw.
“A little cawking and paint makes a framer what he ain’t.”
We call caulking tubes "no more skills"
Do your best then caulk the rest
Caulk and paint what I ain't
Framing is where the craft is ,a lot of thought and planning and building codes to consider ,cutting trim and hanging doors is easy.
If you are good at framming you are good at cutting crown and base all you have to do is have patience trust me I install trusses with no crane 5 stories high one week it was raining so due to that safety would not let us a work so I went with a friend to install base and crown I messed up in the begging due to the fact I never used a miter 30 minutes later I was a beast now I have my own crown and base company 4 weeks later always keep in mind no matter what u do do your best like if it were for you
Excellent job. I don’t do baseboards until just recently and realized this is a art. Thank you for the tips
Dude, I just dig your integrity and honesty. More people should value the experience it takes to do the different jobs well. See too many landscapers laying garden/driveway tiles. Some do it well. Most don't. There's a reason it's a four year apprenticeship (in Denmark anyway). Laying cobblestone, getting the cuts just right, angles, compacting the gravel and so on.
A true trimmin' machine there Richard! Adapting crown stops for making cuts on 'floppy' mdf base? Nice! Re-doing a project like that sure makes a guy wonder "what WERE they thinking?!" that allowed them to walk away and leave gaps like that, right? Best, Matt
Oh, the painters will fix it. Caulk the magic glue.
Thats how people make the money nowadays. Do half ass work quick. Get the customers because you charge slightly less. And then when youve run out of customers... Change specialties. Rinse and repeat. Atleast around my area that seems to be the business model.

I wouldn’t let a framer who left the trim like that frame my house.

I feel like this framer only dedicated his life to framing and he might be a great framer but when it comes to the detail he isn’t for it
3/4 strong

as a Painting Contractor, I appreciate the results of a great trim installer. After 25+ years in the trades, I believe each trade should make the next trades job easier through attention to detail and sticking with what we know the best. No "Jack-Off All Trades" allowed.
Jack of all trades master of none Always better than a master of one
Beautiful work.
I am a floor installer and occasionally I have to do a little trim work. So thank you for the helpful insights.
You are a true professional, Young man! Beautiful work!!
Yea as a finish carpenter I’m a slow framer lol. I know how to frame but can’t bring myself to conform to the rough framing mindset 😉
You aren't even kidding! In my professional life I deal in millimeters and fractions of them...so when I do trimwork at home as a hobby, I tell my wife it takes as long as it does because of that very reason...
Yea my boss got on my case for using lazers to frame, but told me the wall was absolutely on point. I told him that I used to work in a machine shop and he understood why I think that way. Mostly do trim and cabinet installs now and bought a digital 4' level, had to show the guy I work with that a piece of paper will make it out of level in 4'. I do love the new high tech stuff and the level beeps so you don't even have to look at it to know level. I fall into the category of Jack of all trades from cars to houses but it becomes a major drain on the wallet because the amount of tools to do anything that comes my way. Went from a 92 f250 with enclosed service bed that tools outgrew to a 77 box truck (in pic) that weighed 10,100 lbs. Doing cabinets now and in a couple of weeks I'll be cutting concrete in a basement for all the new plumbing. This channel is great, I try to buy whatever he says works for trim and use a lot of the techniques he shows. Adds some extra flare to my work so it stands out.
Oh yeah copping with a grinder blows everyone's mind, it's flawless with speed.
Wyman Clark same here been doing it all for many years... so many tools. Working on transitioning to farming and woodworking but when you know how to do it all you get a lot of calls. Been turning down quite a bit of work lately...... wait you’re not supposed to use lasers for framing? 🤷🏻♂️
I'd love to go on a job and see a mitered rough window opening, lol.
I do woodworking furniture as a hobby for myself. Its hard to see how framers mark and cut their wood.
I don't know any experienced framer who would do that.
With gaps that big I'd be suspect of any framing work they did too lol.
With bad framing everything else has to be crooked just right to match.
I was our painters favorite trim carpenter.
Nice touch on gluing your joints, no callbacks.
Thank you for your valuable time and effort in making this video 📹
Cheers
i've been doing this with a jig saw for a long time. The angle grinder is a great tip!! Thanks for the video!
You can also use a coping saw.
I don't know any framers that would do that sure looks like the homeowner tried to do the trim and ended up calling you after
I've never met a qualified framer that would do a job like this, but I have met a few wanna be ones that I've seen first hand do as bad and worse. I can't imagine the homeowner would wreck the trim in their entire house before calling in a pro.
You do now. I built a large chunk of Denver from 1970 to 1992. Started as a carpenter grunt. Wound up a general contractor. along the way I perfected (for my situation) each phase of the process to a home, business, or apartment building. Survey for and site excavation, Foundations, Frame, Trim, Int trim, electrical, (insulation, painting and plumbing, I didn't want any part of, I had a rule, if you can clean it up with a broom it was cool, But had to get my lic in plunging as well because you couldn't find a plunger that didn't love butchering the frame) drywall (hanging and finishing), and cabinetry + things like tile (loved doing a custom tile entry with the family crest in custom made tiles). He's right, they are out there, I am--Was one. Now I'm old and had a stroke 6 years ago that left me paralyzed on the right side. Now my biggest project is overcoming the frustration I feel every time I attempt one of my old skills. enjoy your youth.

Agreed. The problem wasn’t that the contractor was a framer, nor plumber, tile man or the pizza delivery guy - the problem was a lack of care.
He was very generous not to rip this guy a new one.
Most illegal immigrants do that kind of work and low ball undercut the job just to get it. Then the homeowner winds up paying more to get it done right. I see it all the time in Texas

Love watching a true trim carpenter. Not everything is a 45.
Amen to that! The before looked horrible, what with the baseboard cuts being way off like that. That one 90 degree inverted corner, with the baseboards having a pushed-in look at the bottom of each baseboard...
That was totally awful to even look at! Then, the 90 degree cuts around the bullnose corners...yuck! Thankfully, this young man knew how to fix those two problem areas, and he got 'er lookin' good! I wish I was HALF as good at this type of work that this young man is!
Dan Inkrot 22.5 , 45 and 90 cover most jobs. Most!
Way too slow with a grinder. I can cope faster
@@JohnnyBarger-sb3yh idk here no walls are square...i think the wood framers square by eye or something lol
Thank you for sharing. Learnt heaps watching your videos. I’m a carpet layer. Got lounge room ceiling install Wednesday 😂. Cheers 🦘🇦🇺
U are one off the best I see man big up I watch all of ur video am from barbados
You need a shirt with that beast angle grinder and a caption that says: coping mechanism.
Beautiful job. Your work is worth every penny. Love that there are still skilled craftspeople doing great work out there
Wow.. That's some high-end work.. Very nice!
This is awesome. I just moved into a house with bullnose corners and was wondering how to manage the baseboards. Now I know!!!!
At least they didn't fill everything with caulk like most do.
They didn’t make it that far
I would of just filled it with caulking
The insides should be caulked regardless.
Rob Williams yeah. That’s what I do 😂
i hate that, it always shrinks eventually / soon after and looks like a child has done it, i grew up in a family of roofers so thats in my blood but i love learning new trades ive worked as plasterer + builder, my plastering is ace my blockwork slow. but at least i wont finish a job until it looks 1st class, im anal like that, if it dont look right rip it off or knock it down and do it again. its the best way to learn, take my time do it right the 1st time, i wont do anything unless i know i can do it right, wont touch plumbing or electric but most things are doable if u take pride in ur work
Those beams looked like good execution of a poor design choice. Do what the customer wants, but damn some people have no taste or architectural sense.
I was thinking the same thing. Nice job..shitty design. The coffered ceilings he does would look Soo much better. I cant stand the bull nose corners either but hey..its the south

I don't like those bull nosed corner jobs either.
I didn't realize it was done on purpose.
First time me I seen one, I was thinking,
"I can see it was somebodys first time doing trim". 😂
Whoops.
I guess that, to them, sloppiness is next to cleanliness, or whatever. I'll tell you this:If I was building a house, and a framer came in, and did that horrible of a job, he'd be paying me!
Me too. I am a homeowner that does a LOT of my own work. Trim is one thing I just hate doing because it is so obvious. I have learned over several projects (multiple homes and businesses) a few tricks. But, design is the biggest problem with MDF trim over bullnose drywall.
I am not in a trade like this at all - I'm from the generation where girls were not encouraged to learn this stuff and weren't even allowed to take wood shop. I've wanted to be able to do all my own work for decades and when I watch someone like you I am in awe. I watched three other videos on bullnose corners before this and couldn't finish them because they looked like they had my skill level - your work is perfection! Thank you for taking the time to show us all!
Been doing baseboards in my own house and this video was a big help. Also ive been putting in laminate flooring and the laminate murders coping saw blades. I never even considered using an angle grinder.
A jack of all trades is usually a 60-70 year old man
The jack of all trades loves to rip drywall on the table saw, grout 3 times to make it look good, paint everything with a roller, and glue countertops on with caulk, but at least the end result is good even if it takes longer. Don't confuse this with Chuck with a Truck who really puts his insurance plan to the test when he tires to do a complete bathroom remodel after his 6 months of siding experience.
@@cm01 I love riping drywall on a table saw :))
@@cm01 Not even close.
I think this is more "Don't let people not paid enough to care do trim".
Exactly I been in that position many times
Dekoth-OGN I disagree crappy tradesmen, scammers, and “handymen” sometimes charge the same or more as us skilled tradesmen and do total crap jobs
Gerardo Linares not true. You get what you pay for. Most handymen work for 20 bucks an hour or 25. Skilled charge by the job which can be much much more. And then pay their workers by the hour.
Gsfbffx Pdhhdf i agree with you !! Customers pay you with peanuts and expect top notch quality !! Or they even say well can you just put in the trim !!!
383 Stroker Exactly it takes two to dance. Low skill worker plus cheap customer = trash job. You get what you pay for in most cases 🤷♂️
I’ve never thought to use an angle grinder for my trim-always just used a coping saw and a file.
In my next fixer upper I’ll definitely be borrowing that technique, thanks!
That corner detail was phenomenal!
Really cool
