Hello folks, kirk here with kirk giordano plastering, my son and I are gonna show
you today how we tie in new plumbing wood new plywood into 17 blocks concrete box whatever you
want to call them cinder blocks concrete block, hey now the first thing I did is
measure my stuff. On this old garage, we've got 24-inch studs 2 feet apart traditionally do 16,
but 2 feet apart keep the apartment marked all my stuff because what I need to do is put my
wiring it catches my wires gotta go into the sky, so here's what I'm gonna do I've already got this
one barrier here on I'm just gonna double up that barrier because I'm a particular system
we're using the system is not as important as how to properly do this I'll show you.
hopefully, I have enough paper here to
Come on, made it lucky, okay now that we've got this paper, I know where my studs are right here
now. We're gonna come down over there fish real slippery flank it's been raining like
so no the next phase is we're gonna put some wire on this now when I get with the wire part this is
it's somewhat important if I just take my wire to here when we're done with the stuff. Still,
we're gonna have a big hairline crack here in about three months big crack,
so I need to take my wire at least pass the paper into this concrete block here. For example,
I'm probably going to take it down to this doorframe, trying to avoid this horseshoe.
Let's see, I'm good, that's nice, all right,
I'm gonna put this guy on. Let's just go straight to the pair cook. I'll meet you there quietly.
place the couple spoonfuls here generally what will do it is put six in like so I
already mark my stuff here you do something with their caps I'm not
going to put any staples in on the couch all I want to do is
Actually, I think I believe that and show you something else. Here's what
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna put concrete, and I could use a mesh wire too,
but I'm already using this light is a mesh which is square 2 by 8 pieces. It's easier to
use when you tack it in the block, but I'll show you how we attack up the block, okay.
concrete nails I got a half-inch at 1-inch nails sometimes we go in the grout we break
the grout so and sometimes either Bend depending on the job so what I'll do is
I'll take my magnet here there's only a concrete nail do I use a Batman if
you've ever hit your hand or finger with a hammer about that hard you don't know why
we use a magnet anyhow what we try to do is get it right in a grout line if we can
Doesn't always work then what I do is I grab another concrete nail and we just continue
doing this along the entire entire path of what we want to do is go in the block tooth
because if you go into the bricks you want to go in the ground if you go to the block you'll
shatter them sometimes we don't always have that luxury to be able to go into the ground
a lot easier now this way we have the wire over the block it's tied in then when I go to do my
cement here I'm gonna put half inch here well actually it's all there be feather down my tops
gotta match the bottom so we'll put a half inch usually skim coating block but in order to make
this turn plump I'll probably end up putting 6 8 3 8 per coat and then when I do the color
coat 1/8 that'll be 7/8 of an inch to go over this and tie block to the new Flyway a lot of
people just do this right and they call and say look I got a big old joint right here
you can stick credit cards or quarters in it I say that's because they didn't tie the wire
and properly a lot of ways to tie the wire and a lot of wires to use I'm just using this because
I'm doing all garage with it anything anyhow folks my name is Kirk I'm with Kirk Giordano
plastering I think you folks for watching and as usual we'll see you guys on the next one.
