Oh and another takeaway, if you use a drone for commercial work, you need to be part107 certified. Commercial work includes social media like YouTube if you plan to make an income off of that. I watched a video about this last May and then purchased the Part 107 Course sso.teachable.com/secure/245841/checkout/1320802/b… I studied and learned for 1 month and then took my test. I scored a 95%, which is a testament to how good Greg and the crew over there teach. That link will save you $100 off the course and support this channel.

Some great questions and great answers. You have to be a rock to not learn something from these guys.
-
Love Steve's ethos. Make an entire system work together, buy the best system you can afford. But the assembly is more valuable, it's individual parts.
-
It’s great to see builders really trying; and doing their best possible job. 👏👏
-
Love the seeing Bryan, Steve & Tom together. I'm always looking for better ways to do things. Thanks, Jerry Riggs Lol
-
As a Jonny. They did a good job rolling that tape.
-
Bryan! excellent point about naturally we press the scotch tape when wrapping a gift!
-
Great discussion
-
Saw that xfactor and knew they must have finally released the 1 1/8 version!
-
Great Q&A, super informative. This was full of information on simple steps to make an efficient space. It's not rocket surgery, just some simple applications of materials can make an efficient space. Thank you for this.

Really Cool Video and Info
-
Down East North Carolina (coastal plains/high wind) gets double sill plates.
-
Never under estimate the value of subs not having to drill through floor joists! I'm a huge supporter of floor trusses! A lot of times they will have a small tie band that is just screwed on while having your subs trying to get their work done. The beauty of the zip system still allows it to be sealed later. I'd like to see this home when construction is complete.

41:15 Here's a "Whole house" concept. Had I used X factor on one project (and taped the seams) it would have cost about $1000 more. But I possibly could have prevented the $2,600 underfloor mold treatment a bit later on..... 🤔 Things to definitely consider......

I used Zip in 2010 on our 15 condo buildings during our exterior renovation project. Foamboard sheathing came off- only plywood in the corners and fire rated plywood 4ft on either side of the party walls. led in metal braces. I believe we were the first to use it on the South Jersey coast. I had a full time job as a Machinist but I planned the renovation. I also had a second home in the community and was aware of a lot of damage to our buildings by wind driven rain. I new we needed something better. Of course it was a struggle to get the workers to ROLL THE TAPE. LOL

Wow ❤
-
I have watched a ton of Zip videos from the Build Show and its tentacles. This is the first I am hearing about the "wipe clean" technique as it relates to joints. Is this an actual additional step that Huber just added? Are there instances where Huber has found failures because the joints were NOT wiped clean? Please expand on this concept.
-
Is the spray foam just used to seal in the insulation baffles? If this is the case, I assume the thickness of the foam itself isn't important? how far up the rood do you typically extend the baffles?
-
Wouldn't😂 be Awesome Framers without the antics😁
-
Tim, do you know if Steve does design's for other areas of the country, specifically Florida?
-
I can't remember seeing it in a video before. What is the reason that the air tight layer is on the outside? In Europe it is a standard too have the air tight layer on the inside usely OSB or a sheet with a coating. Is it to save materials since you only need panels on one side and have less change of breaking the air tight layer when hanging a picture frame? Or is there an other or extra reason I oversee?
