The Idiot Proof Way To Reduce Thermal Bridging

Some of the most informative videos about building I’ve seen since Larry Hahn was around. Please Keep it up. A lot of people make videos about building, but the ones who can explain “the why” are the ones to watch! Thanks for the info

Pleasant banter. Succinct and fact-loaded. Even as excellent camera angles and post production. Natural born teachers like us are few and far between. Great crew makes you shine!! We spend months looking for folks like you!

Watched hundreds of videos and you are the only one who showed how the corners go together especially with R (foam) sheathing. Very informative and you even gave a visual computer representation and measurements. A must watch for anyone considering using R sheathing on how to frame the layout and corners. Thank you very much for this video. It greatly expanded my understanding.

Appreciate you taking the time to make these videos! Especially for us DIYers who don't have the experience of doing multiple jobs with a product, seeing how the pros do it and learning from your experiences and what you do helps so much! Bonus, like some said, is knowing the why, or seeing some of the techniques since there's always a few ways to do things. Thank you.

OMG THANK YOU! No one else has covered Zip-R sheathing in this amount of detail; not even Huber!

As a 3rd gen carpenter with 16 years experience, I admire your skill. I share your vids with all the guys on my site.

A nice throwback video to include Shane! Another excellent video as usual. Love seeing the max high pressure nailer! Had the first chance to use mine for 75 sheets of advantech sheathing. What a pleasure it was to use.

This is what I want. I want such skilled learning that I can do for 180 years. That's why it's so rewarding watching these guys do such great work.

Thanks for explaining things so well. You’re clear and concise, much appreciated!

Finally somebody that sheaths the walls while on the ground/deck. Here in Michigan that's the we do it. So fast,easy and safe.

Nice - videos from pros. I'm shocked at how few people install sheathing while the wall is on the deck. You can square it first, install the sheathing and the wall stays square when you tip it up. Seeing videos of people climbing ladders with a 4x8 sheet...[shakes head]. The corner details are good info too. Thxs.

you have added thermal mass into the home. EXCELLENT. The entire structure is now helping stable temperature.

Thank you for putting this together! You guys are the best!!

Nice video Tim. I learned some things. I wonder.. does Huber make a tape with release paper that can be split lengthwise. Sure would make inside corners easier. Maybe outside corners also.

Great vid. Kudos for cutting paneling with a track saw — why not for Pete’s sake? I got snickered at when I brought a chop saw and my “Festo” brand track saw onto the lot 25 years ago. Nice to see us finally catching up to 1990’s Germany! Btw, my original 48t Festo blade is still in regular rotation.

Good info. Thanks! Gonna be using Zip on our houses soon!! Terry

Love the video Learn so much as I’m preparing to do my own build

Your voice over ... and production of vids is absolutely beyond the Universe. It has been overly impressive how great these vids are and seeing the build. Can't wait for more subscribers to discover the greatness here. CHEERS! Amazing!

Hi guys love your vid’s. We have been using R-12 zip for walls on this development. We have noticed that the width of the sheets are 1/8 short of 48” and varying sheets are 1/8 short on the length. We have told the suppliers to see what they say. But on long walls we start running off layout quick. Have you guys noticed this? Oh ya we are in northern VT. I’m not sure why we are using the R-12 it’s the developer’s choice,but we use a Big Bertha 4 1/8 spiral ring shank nail. But we noticed we are the only contractors in the development also using longer nails around windows. Thanks and I appreciate you guys!

You don't truly know if something is idiot proof until you've had me try it. I really like your videos, they are very well done, entertaining and informative. I used to frame in my formative years, now I'm mostly remodeling and additions, would be fun to work with you guys I think.
