hey guys welcome to the homestead so today we are continuing the dining room
project and we make it all the way across the room to the other side of the
wall alright so we have two main revelations in this project video you're
gonna watch as well first being not all OSB are created equal we find out a huge
difference between brands as far as texture and workability any smoothness
into this yep which would be texture but that's okay
yes the second big thing in this video is we find more rot now this is rot that
we had a suspicion was already there we just confirmed it so if you're
interested to learn a little bit about OSB and textures and smoothness and see
some more rot stay tuned
Wow this is rotten out
I think it's fun remember this house is sitting kind of
in the wood yeah yeah that's old yeah I need that one more time
sometimes you just gotta step through
13 15 and 1/4 1,400 order 1413 and 5/8
let you down plug that biggest letdown ever
I'm gonna hop down and do the blocking thank you to Carol for sending us this
kneepad this is going to be great my knees thank you Vangelis to look forward
we get to do something other than just tariffs or put down the fork well just
something where we're not almost working on the floor and under the floor all the
time oh yeah yeah then you're pushing them look carefully placed inflation
it's been laser
so we're home measurement there huh okay that's not 14 anyway there's no way this
is 14 inches what oh that's my 10 hold on what you
got there on the counter what's that one 13 or 5/8 okay moment of truth so I
scream for help
Hey yes pick up please thank you okay just enough for me to clear this as we
let you down you clear the countertop yeah okay
unless I trim this that's right got the oscillating tools my heart determine
what I have to trim this all right let's hear check how you're feeling right
there yeah that did another came out so
hmm yeah it's it's Greg I mean it's supposed to be it's pretty right here
itself space and time Mary do not close it again that's even all the way across
okay
the subfloor we used in this video we actually got from our local hardware
store here in our small little town the price per sheet was about nine
dollars more which we didn't like but we were on a time crunch and a convenience
crunch so we decided to go for it we are really glad that we did because we have
just had our eyes opened about subfloor OSB and they are not all the same so the
new sheets that we bought are Advantech brand subfloor prior to that we were
using products from Lowe's called true floor there are vast differences in the
smoothness and quality of the texture of the panel's Advantech is a lot smoother
and a lot more finished feeling panel I'm sure the true floor is gonna be okay
there both will be fine but if I had to choose one over the other or to advise
you to pick one over the other if you can get it by the Advantech so it's
finally done it's so nice to have the sturdy floor
back underneath us as you could see some of the rot did look pretty bad
fortunately it's mainly just superficial we did find a lot of good wood behind it
so it's okay for now we do have plans to put in French doors in the future we're
probably going to hold off for a little while so we can finish up the kitchen
and then they'll be at it yep we want to try and control the amount of demolition
we do with the house and not get into I think it's called project creep or demo
creep it's where you you start something you see something else needs fixed
something else needs fixed and it can get overwhelming if you're not careful
try to be mindful of that that and I think you're kind of really looking
forward to having your new kitchen done yes very much so
so kitchen is a higher priority than replacing old windows with some kind of
a French door system something or other so the next step is going to be to start
going more towards the kitchen with the floor which is very quickly going to hit
the cabinets so we're gonna have to start
ripping out the cabinets and countertops and finest demos for everything yeah
it'll be a point of God I've replaced it really really quickly because we'll be
taking out the sink the dishwasher all of our base cabinets for refrigerators
really get moved so I don't think it's something you're gonna let me kind of
have you know how to in flux for a couple weeks
no yeah I think so so a lot of really exciting stuff is coming hope you guys
stick around subscribe and join us thanks for watching we'll see you guys
next time bye hey guys hey guys welcome to the homestead what are you saying
just do what you did again and I'll pick it up hey guys welcome to the homestead
hey guys welcome to homestead that's what I'm used to saying this is really
awkward okay why no no go for I got mad once I know
you
