    Ken, I stumbled on your channel by accident and after just watching one video I subscribed immediately. I’m an electrical engineer by degree but spent a good part of my younger years in construction building houses and garages too. I want to say Thank You for showcasing your trade to all of us. I am very picky about who I watch. I don’t like folks that talk too much and your commentary is perfect! As a matter of fact I learned something on the first video. I never knew you could hinge the 2nd floor walls with “toe nailing”. That was really cool. We used to scraps on the face to assist with raising 2nd story walls. You make me want to come to Vermont and build with you just to learn more. Thanks Sir. -Tim (Melbourne, Fla.)

    What I really like about this video...is the veteran kept his young muscle safe...in this video most times the muscle was on solid and reinforced footing, using the ladder hoist prevented them from using the job as a workout...my veterans were different...in my business it was called job safety...and people get hurt if you trust them to make the best decision for you...the only flaw I saw was the vet letting go of the wall as saying I'm letting go 2 steps away....but he know his staff.

    I remember when I built my 12-12 pitch house, mostly by myself, starting the roof sheeting by sending it out between the rafters like your crew does... except it was a windy day and I started to become airborne. I let go just as my feet started to leave the deck... scary!
    it never occurred to me to put the paper on from the inside too, as I went. Very smart/clever, Ken.

    I like how you eliminated the ridge with the plywood gusset and metal connector for the rafters. It sure saves a lot of time and cost.

    Wow, so nice to see someone who clearly cares about his craft, customers and the final product. Wish Ken was here is Alberta. He would be getting a call from me. Build videos are strangely captivating. My sat morning routine, coffee, tidy kitchen, and a few garage vids with Ken. Have a good one Ken.

    Loved the video and learned a thing or two. Thank you, and I would add, sandwich a 2x4 between the stair stringer and the stud walls to allow for wall finish materials to be installed without notching around the stair treads. The drywallers and finish carpenters would appreciate it.
