I agree with Audrey Lenell....your project looks wonderful but letting your children help/be involved (and safely) was by far the best. Building strong bonds, teaching and when they are involved, they appreciate...Keep up the beautiful work and the awesome parenting. You guys rock!
That's so awesome to hear. They love that as well.
i think the best produce in the price range. Very slick and stylish! Very easy to install ....got so many compliments
I love that your kids are helping! Good job parents! Awesome work!
We try. Smoky here in norcal tho. Can't get the kids outside too long. Bummed
I love that this was a family effort. Great job.
thx u
Them kids dont wven need dads help
Wow!!! All I can say is Wow!! How awesome is it that your kids are involved in this build. I freaking love it!! You are such an amazing Parent!! Keep up the great work with teaching them your God given craft. I just love it!❤
Thanks
Sweet table 🪚 Set up 👍
Thx
Good job ! All the patience and hard work paid off.
happy wife, happy kids. My labor of love.
Excellent Work - Your project is very nice and I liked how you got your whole Family involded in it.
please consider having your kids involved. It's time well spent!
I love that your kids are helping so much with this! I can’t wait to do this stuff with my boys when they are old enough!!!
Yeah I can't wait for the 3 yr old to start contributing.
Love to see your boys helping. I do all kinds of work around my house and my son or daughter never see a guy in my house to repair anything. My son when he was little like your sons in the video he comes and asks me whether I want a coke, water or something but after when he was about 12-13 he abandon that caring. Now he is 18 and ready to go to college. I asked him to come and work with me but he never did. One day he will realize what he was missing when I am not around.
I got little emotional seeing your boys helping you. Great ... keep it up and good luck. Time goes by so fast and you won't even know it.
Sam thx brother. Will show kiddos comment. The reflection is in our work. Out of necessity, their curiosity and willingness as well as concerns for time spent away from kids, the kids on board helping.
Awesome
Thx
This is exactly what I was looking for to help me figure out how to do the same thing in my home! Thank you for making this video and I love how your family was involved!
That's cool. Glad we can come thru.
I love it when a family works together it's not often so keep it up ☝ it looks good !!!!🎉🎆😉
When families used to do things together. Lol
Great work beautiful family ... Team work makes the dream work!!
That's what it is. Kids take the credit and rightfully so.
Beautiful,smart kids.,great family teamwork. Awesome.
Thank you
Nice .... looks great .... Nice that u worked with ur kids too
These guys admire their work daily. Never seen them so proud when we used to have guests over lol.
@@CaliBoud Thx for getting back to me.... they should be proud .... hope to c more videos from u and ur family .... thx for ur channel :)
So I started this project about 3 weeks ago as a challenge for myself. I'm extremely creative, but never explored the carpentry end of it. (I probably should have started a little smaller) lol In any event, I am following all of your direction, but on a much smaller scale as my living room could fit into yours about 2 times maybe 3. lol. i have a 65 inch tv and a 50 inch ts fireplace.
I just love this design and how you and your family work together. Would love to attach a pic of how I am making out up to now, but I don't see a place we can upload attachments. I have to say...not too shabby thanks to your clear direction. All I can say is Thank God for Rewind , Pause and Play!!!!
That's so awesome to hear. I'm fortunate I had extra hands with the kiddos. Yes I wish thee was a way for us to share pictures.
Still waiting for the build of the sweet work bench. Love how the chop saw is stowed.
It's coming. The kids are editing the vids lol
Love your work, easy understandable and so accurate. Great tips and awesome helpers. Thank you so much!
Great. Thank you.
Man this was great the best one I’ve seen thus far
right on
Your kids did a wonderful job!
We think so as well.
👹This was such an amazing video, can't wait for part 2
Yes, broke it up so not such a long video
this guy does quality work
appreciate the love
Cool dude 😎
You are awesome man, I use to get yelled at as a kid 😂😂😂
Great work, cool family ✊🏽💯🙏🏼
Same here as a child. Just reversing a trend and getting the kids involved.
What good fellows you are! I watched 2 parts with pleasure. Cool that everyone did together !! It turned out very nicely!
Thankyou
This is exactly what I’ve been searching for! Great job!
We've must have the same "must haves"
That's awesome!
Thx
I'M GOING TO TRY IT. GREAT IDEA
Heck yeah. I have 4 kids and got it done.
This is great. Those are some awesome kids
They love their work.
I loved it, thanks for your video 👍🏽
Thanks. Hopefully an inspiration on what can be done with an idea and patience.
super awesome video!!! it inspires me to DIY.
For sure. CZcams is all about inspiration. On to the next...
This wall is the most solid built part of the house haha
Beef the crap out of it.
This was awesome 👏🏽
Thx
Hey I do love seeing your patience with your kids! A lot of guys aren't capable of doing that!
I got to say the wood working table you made is genius! I showed it to my boyfriend and he agreed that this world be perfect for his small garage. Do you have plans for this table?
Thx for the kind words.Oh my with covid 19 and 4 kids, its definitely a challenge getting school in order. Props to their teachers. I made a video about the work table. Just need to upload it.
Thank you. I just make one just like your buy only I add one column on the cornes but looks like your
That's cool. Should upload pics on here.
Cali*Boud sure I will do. Is just the same like your but just I di Columns on the corners. Looks amazing
Love those kids
Appreciate that.
Out of all fireplace videos, I like this one best. I'm definitely going to follow this one when I'm ready to build mine. By any chance do you have a video on that work bench? It's pretty neat
Coming soon. Thx
Awesome 👍I plan on making the same model. Can you provide the height dimensions of the TV and electric stove? Also, what did the child draw on the surface of the tiles? What role does it play?
Hi, thanks for the video. It looks great! How many inches did you allow between the top of the fireplace unit and the rock in order to install the face plate? Thanks
That's a great question and this little detail will determine if you can place and remove faceplate. 3/8"
Nicely done and I'm glad to see you used cement board for this. Do you have a video showing off your miter saw workbench? I liked that flush insert you have when the saw is not in use.
Yes. It has been a challenge organizing all the footage from the 1st video we made which was the work bench. It is coming.
Congratulations that absolutely came out beautiful. One question did you by any chance make a video of how you build your tablesaw/miter saw work bench? It’s a really impressive bench and would love to build something similar.
yes. the kids are editing so it takes a little time as well. Gonna get it out soon.
@@CaliBoud great cant wait to watch it. Thanks
Great job!! On your hearth, I noticed you said it was 12” in height and about 18.5” from the fireplace. How far in total is it from the wall to the edge and from the 2x6 side frame to edge?
24". Plenty of space for people's rear. The sides get used extensively for seasonal decor.
AMAZING!!! We will be using the same brand (not color) of stone for our build out. Did you build directly over the tile? I ask because we currently have carpet but will be replacing with tile and was wondering should I cut the carpet around it and set on the floor or just set it directly on the carpet? Thank you and Amazing Job!!!!!
Built directly over tile because it was level and solid. You could secure carpet w/ scrap wood to floor and attach fireplace frame to scrap wood to eliminate give.
@@CaliBoud Thank you!!!!
Great job!! Do you have a vid on building you workbench with table and miter saw?
As a matter of fact yes. Thanks for asking. The workbench gets used a lot. Video out soon.
I can’t wait for the video on the workbench build! You did a great job on this build and love how you are teaching your kids these skills. Amazing!
@@CaliBoud agree love the workbench
This is amazing!! So basic questions:
1. Did you remove the crown molding before putting up the framing?
2. how high is the hearth off the ground?
3. i would like to build something very similar but the stone veneer will only come up half way (so the stone will only be below the mantel beam). .. above the mantel beam, i want to mount a TV - should i just mount the TV directly into the wall studs? Also, how do i hide the wires in the wall and inside the mantel (behind the electric fireplace)?
Didn't have crown molding before. We had 2 ledger panel height plus quartz counter for height or about 14 inches. We have a pvc pipe behind the drywall for the wires to come down and hidden.
@@CaliBoud how did you get the pvc pipe into the wall?
These kids use tools better then some men of this generation
That is unfortunately too true. People hiring people to do even the simplest of chores/jobs.
Hi, Great work! Can we use a regular drywall instead of Cement Board? Asking because Cement Board may be hard to cut using utility knife
Don't recommend drywall. Mortar does not adhere well. It's made to adhere to cement board. Sorry accidentally deleted my initial response.
Very nice! where did you purchase the stone? And what was the approximate square footage of stone?
Thank you
Msi ledger panel @HD. 1 box is 60 Sq ft. Used 12 boxes or appx 700 Sq ft. Thx
@@CaliBoud I think you mean 6 sq ft per box, x 12 = 72 sq ft. total. Great job by the way (I watched part 2). Looks amazing.
Hey where did you purchase the stone and how much was everything to make this beautiful project..thank you
Msi stone at HD. Its pricey but its actual stone and not faux stone. $4k w/0 tv
beautiful job. can you remove the fireplace if you have an issue with it or it needs to be serviced for some reason?
Yes, glass lifts up and out to access the 6 screws for removal.
Love this ! Great job !! Do you have a list of material you used for the frame and also dimensions ?
Sorry do not. Will include next time
Looks awsome. What thickness of durarock did you use. 1/4 or 1/2 thick?
You want it thick. There's a lot of weight riding on it. Is 5/8 x3x5
can you share the measurements for all the cuts... it looks great
That's a lot of cuts. 2 x 6 x 10ft frame. 9ft hearth, 8 ft wraparound mantle.
Nice. Givn ur kids some life skills. What we shd all do. “ put ur phones/ games down for a change”. Nice 1 DAD !!!👍
We owe Lowes ams Home depot a bug thank you for the build with kids workshop. They see what can be built with a plan.
How much does it cost for Electrical Fire Place? Could you share the link for that please? Thanks
Appx 1200.00, link in description. Thx
Do you have materials list and dimensions?
Also, is that fireplace able to use the fireplace safety glass rocks/stones
No but future builds should have materials list. Didn't think anyone would want to try it. Yes on the glass rocks.
Absolutely beautiful but seems too time consuming.
Make no mistake, when you're working with 4 young kids, it will consume time. But the flip side, it's time spent with my young apprentices.
Anyway I can get the blueprints??? I have the same tv and fireplace I would love to build this
Thanks bro. There was no blue print but going forward there will be. I've been doing a lot of work with sketch up. Its really neat. The fireplace should have dimensions recommendations.
@@CaliBoud awesome yeah we have the same TV and I'm looking at the same size fire place we love what you did with it looks awesome
How much was everything to make this beautiful project??
$4k without TV. Can't stress how beautiful and priceless it is when it's your own work. Do it and good luck!
what did you use for your "Under hearth mood lighting"
amazon tape lighting, $6-$12
Great project! I am planning to buy the same firepace and start this project minus the Quartz . I have Vinyl flooring. Do you think I can build the frame on top of it , or should i cut it and place the frame lower? Thanks a bunch!
I'm sure you can but unless it's solid, it may have some rebound fireplace over vinyl.
Thanks! I am following your guide and have built the frame/attached to wall. I ended up trimming the vinyl flooring around it . Did you build on top of tile that sits on concrete? Do you have a basement? I am building on a wood floor and have some concerns on the joists.I figured around 1600lbs of weight total😬 Lastly,are the framing 2x6 pieces in the middle 10 or 12in?The short ones used at the end.What about the horizontal ones? Thanks a bunch! Same fireplace is on order👍
@@alexandroid8654 That's a lot of questions haha. 1) built on top of tile 2) no basement 3) framing was entirely used 2 x 6 x 10. 4) we are in year 3 and it's been a conversation piece and a striking addition for any guests that swings by.
@@CaliBoud Thanks. Glad its holding great ,sure looks awesome. Last question for now :)I am wondering on the small 2x6 wood cut to reinforce the frame in the middle of the box. Are they about 10 inches?What about the horizontal ones? Oops that's 2 questions😆
@@alexandroid8654 no problem. You'll be so happy when it's done. They are all 2 x 6 there are some 2x 4 as well. Find a stud and anchor the frame.
Hello what size TV did you use in this video. I would love to make this
82"
Hi, I really enjoy your video. How much in total for this project cos planning on doing it.
Less than $6k which includes fireplace, soundbar and TV. Pre covid of course.
I want to build this exact frame
Go for it. Have patience though. The end result is a complete masterpiece you've built yourself.
Can I please get a list of your material list?
Can you give me the dimensions of your mantel. This project is almost exactly what we are trying to do with our home! Great video.
9ft x 6 in with 12 in x 6 in side wrap
@@CaliBoud So the front is 6" high--how deep is the shelf? 6" also? Our will be 72" wide but want to make sure we have wide and tall enough. Yours looks great.
Gotcha. The shelf uses a 6" x 10' pine board (really 5.5"). so 6" tall and 6" deep to get that bulky look. Good luck can't wait to see pictures of yours.
👏👏👍👍 where did you get that workbench? 👍😁
made it. look for the video the end of this month. there since I wrote it down, it has to happen
What are your mantel and fireplace dimensions (width and depth)?
I used a 1 x 6 and 45 degree cut them to make my box. It is 9 feet long.
How high are your ceilings?
10'
How tall is your ceiling height? From floor to ceiling?
10'
Omg this is everything i wanted too. How much was everything?
Send me too the exact measurements and everything i want one exactly like that
@Chane' Kato for sure. Click on that link, it has the exact dimensions you need. It fits a 2x6 stud.
@@panhialee8588 you and I have similar taste then. It was priceless to have all the kiddos involved.
Cali*Boud which link? I dont see any? Lmk soon. So i can start my own too...
I would like the measurements pls
Do you have plans for this build?
In my head. A great idea next time in case anyone wants to do something similar in their homes.
Are the ceilings 8ft
10ft
Hot tall are those ceilings??..
10'
Would love to hire do ours! Where in Cali are you guys?
Norcal rocklin
OMG! It’s even better! How do I get a hold of you? Haha
We live in Roseville and I would really like to hire you do ours. Please let me!
Damn that is so nice are you available for hire?
Haha. What up broski. Love the new CZcams channel name. Go check it out.
Can I please get your measurements?
Sorry dont have a cut list but will make sure to include next project. I'm glad you all are inspired to do for your home as well.
So did u cut the base board? How did u attached to the floor...did u stew through the floor over the vinal or wood? That is the part I am worried about..
What are the measurements of your frame
120'" x 80". The 80" width is 5 panels of the the 16" ledger panel to minimize cuts.
Thanks. I'm looking forward to building mine@@CaliBoud
Do you do work outside of your home, Can I hire you?
I wish. 2020 was filled with projects...I just have to upload the vids
TV over the fireplace is bad. The ergonomic coaches are going nuts.....
Haha. Imagine 4 kids standing in front of TV. Then realize TV height in perfect.
@@CaliBoud Perfect for about 10 minutes, then their legs got sore and they sat down. Then neck pains.
Ah he filmed his family, what a goofball
Yup, they are so proud of this.
Decent job but I dont understand why all asians work barefoot smfh 🤦♂️
Leave that sH$tstain from bottom of shoe at door. Now more than ever!
Dude, you are humiliating grown men who are not as good as your toddlers.
No chance. A very deep appreciation for our tradesmen/women who a living doing this.
