Tip your top and bottom plates on the 1.5" side...drive an 8 in to hold the boards, then follow this instruction. Why on the 1.5.... when you frame...you will have your marks on the side that is easier to read. where do you frame that you don't use wall bucks or L - buck or H buck... Very concise for the DIY guy and gals.. P.S. ALWAYS PULL YOUR TAPE... LEFT TO RIGHT
-
might want to explain why the first mark for your studs is shorter than the others. Not 16 on center because the sheet goods is fully covering the stud at the corner. Some folks dont pick up on that. Great job sir. keep it up.
-
OMG. Thank you! I’ve been looking all over the place to learn this stuff. No one teaches a class in building.
-
If you use a framing square as opposed to the speed square you would eliminate the steps of marking the X and putting the mark 3/4 from 16” OC because the framing square has a center hole in it that you put on your 16” OC mark which you can then scribe both sides of the framers square with your pencil, leaving you with two lines 1-1/2” apart where you will place your studs!

Grace and peace bro... thank you for the walk through. I really appreciate it.
-

love your videos! Could you make a video on how to put up a wall stud by stud, and still make sure is all level and plumb. I work by myself and I am not able to lift up an entire wall up. Thanks!!

Can you explain the reason for a double top plate and how you connect two walls together? In a video
-
Built many houses and have marked exactly 16 and Back or away depending and no issues. Has this always been a thing? I get stuff falls 2,4,6,8,etc but worsts is you would need one nailer. But we never had issues and allot of times the take off could be where first stud for structural wall at say 8 1/4 then 16 and away or back
