Top 7 Tools for Electrical Projects | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman shows host Kevin O’Connor the tools he uses the most during day-to-day electrical work. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. 7 Common Electrical Tools Explained Electricians use a lot of tools, but some are more indispensable than others. Linesman’s Pliers [https://amzn.to/3EqLfxX] Electricians use linesman’s pliers for almost everything. These pliers have flat noses designed for twisting wires tightly. They also have cutting edges for cutting wires to length, as well as stripping the jackets off individual wires. And, since they’re tough and heavy, electricians will often use linesman’s pliers as a makeshift hammer to drive staples, punch holes in electrical boxes, and more. Combination Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/3CgtK2B] Electricians have many screwdrivers, nut drivers, and other tools. But many of their most common hardware uses the same tips, such as #2 square drive for breakers, #2 Phillips and flat tips for outlets and wall plates, and ¼ and 5/16-inch nut drivers for light fixtures and the like. Rather than carry all those screwdrivers, most electricians enjoy the convenience of a combination screwdriver, which can offer tips for 11 or more different fastener types—all in one screwdriver. Side Cutters or Diagonal Cutters [https://amzn.to/3nBU4hs] Occasionally, an electrician can’t get their linesman’s pliers into a tight spot, requiring something with a little more finesse. That’s exactly what diagonal cutters are for: They fit in tight places for cutting wires or removing staples. They’re not as heavy-duty as a pair of linesman’s pliers, so they’re not a suitable hammer stand-in. Wire Stripper [https://amzn.to/3vQi8ki] Electricians have quite a few ways to strip wires, but a tool designed specifically for the job is often the fastest. These tools can quickly remove wire sheathing, strip wires of several sizes, and bend perfect hooks for outlets or ground wires. These tools are often spring-loaded, as well, making one-hand use a breeze. Non-Contact Voltage Tester [https://amzn.to/3mhZf6K] Electricians need to know if the circuits they’re working on are energized or not, and while a voltmeter will do the trick, a non-contact voltage tester is much faster. These devices simply detect voltage and alert to its presence. The user can place close to a wire or outlet, and should the light go from green to red (in most cases, check your manual), the voltage tester is indicating that the circuit is energized. Torpedo Level [https://amzn.to/2Zp26lq] Most electricians take great pride in their work, and a handy torpedo level will help. These levels are small and feature at least one magnetic side for attaching to metal conduit or electrical boxes. They also feature several angles, including two 90-degree bubbles, a 45-degree bubble, and a 30 or 60-degree bubble. Dust Shroud [https://amzn.to/3BlPvMY] Recessed lighting is very popular but cutting all those holes in a ceiling is a messy endeavor. Rather than letting all of that drywall dust fall to the ground, an electrician can fit their drill with a dust shroud. These flexible bowls sit behind the hole saw and collect all the dust the falls from drilling, making clean-up much faster.

How To Clean Dried Out Paint Brushes | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House master painter Mauro Henrique explains that while paintbrushes should be cleaned after every use, all is not necessarily lost if the paint dries on a brush. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Expert painter Mauro Henrique shows host Kevin O’Connor how to bring an old paintbrush back to life. Kevin explains that a “friend” let their wet paintbrush sit too long, allowing it to harden and become unusable. Mauro explains the importance of cleaning a paintbrush after every use before showing Kevin some methods of removing the dried paint from the bristles with a chemical brush cleaner. Skill: Easy Cost: Under $20 Estimated Time: Around 1 hour Shopping list: Brush cleaner [https://amzn.to/3lYgAl5] Rubber gloves [https://amzn.to/3pmJlKb] A short scrap of 2x4 [https://thd.co/3vuN4q9] Tools: 2 Small paint buckets [https://amzn.to/2XtxAGo] Soft bristle brush [https://amzn.to/3vuNBIF] Paintbrush comb [https://amzn.to/3pjBsoS] Steps for cleaning an old paintbrush 1. Place the brush in an empty, clean paint bucket. If the bucket has a magnet, place the ferrule (the metal part) of the brush against it to hold it in place. 2. Put on rubber gloves and pour the brush cleaner into the bucket, filling to just above the height of the dried paint. 3. Allow the brush cleaner to soak into the paintbrush and dried paint for 20 to 30 minutes. 4. After allowing the brush to soak, use the soft-bristled brush to loosen and remove the paint. Brush from the ferrule toward the tip of the brush. Continue brushing until all of the chunks of paint are loose. If necessary, soak the brush again. 5. With all of the paint removed, use fresh, clean water to rinse the brush. Place the 2x4 in the bucket and use it as a work surface to brush against as you rinse the paintbrush. Use a clean brush to rinse the paint from the bristles. Continue until the water running from the paintbrush is clear. 6. With the tip inside the rim of the bucket, spin the handle of the brush between your palms to remove excess water. 7. Use the comb brush to straighten the bristles and ensure the paintbrush is ready for the next project. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How To Build a Backyard Ice Rink | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House landscape contractor Jenn Nawada and carpenter Nathan Gilbert help a homeowner build a backyard ice rink for her kids that they can use year after year. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Landscape expert Jenn Nawada and carpenter Nathan Gilbert help a homeowner build a backyard ice skating rink. Jenn and Nathan explain the best time of the season to build a rink and then ensure that the yard is level enough for the project. Nathan then shows Jenn and the homeowner the hardware and lumber he plans to use to build the rink so it’s level and easy to assemble and disassemble. Jenn then explains which type of plastic to use to form the base of the rink. Skill: Easy to moderate Cost: Varies depending on the yard Time: 6 hours, plus filling time Shopping list: Landscaping string [https://amzn.to/3aW37nA] Construction lumber [https://thd.co/3plV3oo] Plastic sheeting [https://amzn.to/3n6PsQe] Galvanized brackets [https://thd.co/3jn08cy] Galvanized screws [https://thd.co/3G7dAuQ] Galvanized lag screws [https://thd.co/3pm3zUo] Concrete form stakes [https://amzn.to/3B1cYmL] Tools: Shovel [https://amzn.to/2ZbXxLm] Hammer [https://amzn.to/3B3upTw] Tape measure [https://amzn.to/3neZ6jI] String line level [https://amzn.to/3G5gakN] Impact driver or screw gun [https://amzn.to/3jkNVVG] Where to find it? Jenn and Nathan built the ice skating rink out of a series of 2x10”x16’ KD boards [https://thd.co/3plV3oo], which can be found at home centers and lumberyards. To secure the boards together, Nathan used a series of galvanized brackets [https://thd.co/3jn08cy], which are manufactured by Simpson Strong-Tie [https://ift.tt/3fJW4Ai]. To hold the water in the rink, Jenn and Nathan used a 28x64’ 7mm white polyethylene from J. Freeman, Inc [https://ift.tt/3pCAswg]. Outside of New England, look for a local plastic distributor company that makes products such as boat wraps [https://amzn.to/3n6PsQe]. Some companies might even specify plastic for ice skating rinks. For the details around center ice, Nathan used a piece of PVC board [https://thd.co/3vIbpJv] and some red PEX pipe [https://thd.co/2XvjNPL], which can be found at most home centers.

How To Install Tongue and Groove Flooring | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House mason Mark McCullough teaches Kevin O’Connor how to patch holes in a tough surface. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Tom Silva shows Kevin O’Connor how to install tongue-and-groove hardwood flooring. Tom shows Kevin a prefinished flooring product that he chose and explains how the tongues and grooves line up for a proper installation. Tom explains that it’s important that the first row be as straight as possible and shows Kevin how to make that happen using a chalk line for reference. Skill: Moderate Cost: Around $5 to $6 per square foot Time: A weekend Shopping list: Hardwood tongue-and-groove flooring [https://thd.co/3G3697V] Construction adhesive [https://amzn.to/3G4Xf9X] Finish nails [https://thd.co/2Z9X6Rm] Flooring staples [https://thd.co/3ptntge] Shims [https://thd.co/2Z418eb] or spacers [https://thd.co/3b0gdQw] Wood putty [https://amzn.to/3jk2GZ0] Tools: Chalk line [https://amzn.to/3BZmaJu] Pencil [https://amzn.to/3vupDgM] Tape measure [https://amzn.to/3neZ6jI] Caulking gun [https://amzn.to/3piP4AL] Miter saw [https://amzn.to/3jmOJJL] Finish nailer [https://amzn.to/3ppdDfs] Flooring nailer [https://amzn.to/3G37E63] Rubber mallet [https://amzn.to/3vuPghn] Flooring jack [https://amzn.to/3phVwYU] Steps for installing tongue and groove flooring 1. Mark the first row by placing the groove side of a board against the wall near a corner, leaving a gap of approximately 3/16 of an inch between the board and wall. Mark the subfloor on the tongue side and measure the distance between the mark and the wall. Transfer this mark to the other side of the room and snap a chalk line between these points. 2. Run a bead of construction adhesive between the chalk line and the wall. This is only necessary for the first row. 3. Lay a piece of flooring on the floor so the outside of the tongue lines up with the chalk line. Use a finish nailer to nail through the face of the board along the groove side of the board. 4. Place shims or spacers in the gap between the flooring and the walls to hold it firmly in place. 5. Holding the finish nailer at an angle, shoot nails through the tongue every 8 to 10 inches. 6. Install the next piece of flooring against the chalk line, aligning the tongue and groove between the two pieces. Use a rubber mallet to join the two pieces before nailing through the face and tongue of the board. Continue across the wall until you get to a corner. 7. Mark the end piece for cutting by keeping the tongue pointed toward the wall while also flipping it upside down. Maintaining a rough 3/16-inch gap at the wall, use a pencil to make a mark where it meets the previous board. Cut the board to length with a miter saw. Nail through the face and tongue to hold it in place. 8. Continue using this method until you’re far enough from the wall to use the flooring nailer. At that point, simply lay a new board and tap it into place with the rubber mallet before nailing through the tongue with the flooring nailer. 9. Continue laying the boards, tapping them in place, and nailing every 8 to 10 inches. Ensure that the seams where the boards meet between corresponding courses are at least 6 inches from each other. 10. Once you make it across the room, it won’t be possible to use the rubber mallet to jockey the board into position. Use a flooring jack pressed against the wall to position the boards properly. 11. Along the wall on the other side of the room, switch back to the finish nailer and nail through the face of the boards every 8 to 10 inches. 12. Fill the nail holes with wood putty, buff the surface, and install baseboard moldings. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How to Fill Anchor Holes in Brick | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House mason Mark McCullough teaches Kevin O’Connor how to patch holes in a tough surface. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Kevin O'Connor meets mason Mark McCullough to talk about how to patch holes in brick surfaces. After explaining how holes in brick might come to be, Mark shows Kevin a selection of mortar sticks and compounds. Mark explains that they’ll use these materials to match the color of the existing brick and fill the holes. Mark shows Kevin how to mix both the compound and the mortar, explaining how to achieve the right consistency for the job. With an eye for neatness, Mark shows Kevin a secret for filling the hole entirely and then finishing it off for barely noticeable repair. Estimated Time: 1 hour plus drying time Cost: Under $20 Skill Level: Easy to moderate Shopping list: Mortar mix [https://amzn.to/3p6O5DA] or putty Dye for mortar [https://amzn.to/2YUXGTk] Sponge [https://amzn.to/3BHq1e0] Bucket [https://amzn.to/2Xe2cf6] Tools: Trowel [https://amzn.to/2YUYuYm] Jointer [https://amzn.to/2YMMqs1] Steps for patching holes in brick 1. Find a mortar mix or compound that matches the existing brick as closely as possible (an exact match isn’t likely) 2. Using water sparingly, mix the compound or mortar mix to a thick putty-like consistency. It’s better to add small amounts of water a little at a time than trying adding material to a wet mix. 3. With a bit of the compound on a trowel, use a hex key or something similar to pack small amounts of the compound into the hole until the hole is filled to be slightly proud of the brick surface. 4. Use a trowel to flatten the compound against the brick. Press down and use a small circular motion—don’t drag the trowel across. 5. Using a damp sponge, press the sponge against the patched hole and then lift it straight off the brick to mimic the rough surface of the brick.

Tom Silva and Kevin O’Connor meet at the shop to discuss patching holes in drywall, noting that almost every homeowner will deal with this issue at some point. Tom shows Kevin some of the most common ways he likes to patch these holes, including using tape, metal-reinforced patches, and a few types of custom-cut patches. Estimated time: 1 hour plus drying time Cost: Under $20 Skill Level: Easy to moderate Shopping list: Spackling compound [https://amzn.to/3DzhBWP] or joint compound [https://amzn.to/3ayScA1] Extra strength mesh drywall joint tape [https://amzn.to/2YIP16J] Self adhesive wall repair patch [https://amzn.to/3DzF0Hy] Scrap piece of drywall [https://thd.co/3v6Dqd8] Scrap piece of wood [https://thd.co/3pPIhMr] Drywall repair clips [https://amzn.to/3AOFbx7] Tools: Putty knife [https://amzn.to/3aATL0d] Drywall knife [https://amzn.to/2YIFahb] Sandpaper [https://amzn.to/30nX2hL] Where to find it? Tommy explains how to patch different size holes in drywall. To patch a small hole, he suggests using a spackling compound along with a putty [https://amzn.to/3aATL0d] or drywall knife [https://amzn.to/2YIFahb]. Sand the hole after applying a few thin layers and allowing for drying time. To patch a medium-size hole, Tom suggests using either heavy duty mesh drywall joint tape [https://amzn.to/2YIP16J] or a drywall self-adhesive wall repair patch [https://amzn.to/3DzF0Hy], which come in a variety of different sizes, like 4”x4”, 6”x6” and 8”x8”.

You can anchor the patch to the wall in one of three ways: using a scrap piece of wood, using drywall repair clips [https://amzn.to/3AOFbx7], or by leaving the paper backer on the drywall. Cover the tape or patch with spackling compound or joint compound [https://amzn.to/3ayScA1] (for larger holes) using a putty or drywall knife, and sand down [https://amzn.to/30nX2hL] after applying a few thin layers and allowing for drying time.

SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Nathan Gilbert helps a homeowner deal with a gap at their front door caused by new hardwood flooring. After assessing the issue, Nathan explains that cutting the door and raising the threshold is the solution that the homeowner is looking for. Nathan shows the homeowner the red oak he plans to use, as well as how he’ll mill it to fit both the doorway and the hardwood floor. Estimated Time: 3 hours Cost: $75 Skill Level: Moderate Shopping list: Safety glasses [https://amzn.to/3p0T4G2] Ear protection [https://amzn.to/3iWQdtQ] N-95 mask [https://amzn.to/3DCnVg5] Desired type of lumber Wood sealant [https://amzn.to/3aOEo4J] Painter’s tape [https://amzn.to/3azg1b6] Construction adhesive [https://amzn.to/3iZK28j] Polyurethane adhesive [https://amzn.to/30exNOI] Doorstop [https://thd.co/3BHGnUe] Weatherstripping [https://thd.co/3FGVjUX] Tools: Tape measure [https://amzn.to/3lASSuY] Carpenter scribe tool [https://amzn.to/3iYrA05] Track saw [https://bit.ly/3FTisUi] Sliding compound miter saw [https://amzn.to/3oZ4aLR] Table saw [https://amzn.to/3v6K5UV] Jigsaw [https://amzn.to/3BHA4zK] Sandpaper [https://amzn.to/30nX2hL] Drill [https://amzn.to/3oZ66E7] Steps for retrofitting a threshold 1. Add ⅛-inch to the height of the threshold material, and set a pair of scribes to this measurement. Use the scribes to mark the door on each edge to create a cutline. 2. Remove the hinge pins from the hinges to remove the door from the jamb. Lay the door flat on a pair of sawhorses. 3. Using a circular saw, cut the door to the new length using the scribed marks as the cutline. Seal the bottom of the door to prevent the newly exposed grain from absorbing moisture. Rehang the door once it’s dry. 4. Mark the threshold material to length by holding it in place, butted up against the inside of the door casing on one end, and marking it at the casing on the other end. Cut it to length with a miter saw. 5. Find the width of the threshold by measuring from the leading edge of where it will sit to the depth of the door casing. Cut it to width on a table saw. 6. Ease the transition by beveling the top edges of the threshold. Tilt the table saw’s blade to 45 degrees, move the fence toward the blade slightly, and pass the threshold through to bevel one edge. Flip the threshold to bevel the other edge. 7. If necessary, cut a rabbet in the underside of the threshold with a table saw so that it may overlap the existing flooring. 8. Hold the threshold in place and use a pencil to mark the cuts for a perfect fit. Do this on both ends of the threshold and cut them out with a jigsaw. 9. Sand the threshold to make it smooth and apply a coat of sealer to prevent water damage. 10. Squeeze a small bead of construction adhesive onto the door sill where the threshold will sit. Predrill holes in the threshold 3 inches from either end and one in the middle. Nail the threshold in place. 11. Close the door to assess the gap under the door. Attach a door sweep to the front of the door with screws to close the gap for a tight seal. Where to find it? To bridge the awkward gap between the original threshold and the new flooring, Nathan cut to size a piece of ¾” oak stock lumber, which can be found at any home center.

All About Water Heaters | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey walks through all the various options available to homeowners for purchasing or renting a water heater SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Richard Trethewey teaches Kevin O’Connor all about water heaters. Since 90% of water heater purchases are emergencies, Richard thought a bit of homework on the topic would help avoid purchasing what’s available over the best water heater for the scenario. It’s not just discussion, either; Richard shows Kevin the gruesome interior of the shop’s water heater, comparing it to the other models available. Types of Water Heaters: Gas Storage Tank Water Heater [https://thd.co/3oSAr7l] * Gas burner is underneath the tank. Cold water enters the glass-lined tank by the dip tube and goes to the bottom of the tank. Through the process of convention, hot water rises to the top of the tank. * A flue runs through the tank and up out of the house to take away exhaust gases. * Most popular in the USA Electric Storage Tank Water Heater [https://thd.co/3Bl4hV5] * The process is very similar to the gas water heater. A dip tube brings cold water to the bottom of the tank, where it is heated. * There is no direct burner but there are electric elements to heat the water, just like the elements found in a coffee machine. * There is no gas, so there is no need for a flue. * Usually more expensive to run than a gas water heater. Hybrid Water Heater [https://thd.co/3oAwqnP] * The water in the tank is heated by a heat pump. It works like an air conditioner does - it moves heat from one location to another. It pulls heat from the surrounding air and, through fans and coils, heats that air even more, then dumps it into a tank to heat water. * Can be two to three times more energy efficient than conventional electric resistance water heaters. * They work best in a warmer climate. Tankless Water Heater [https://thd.co/3Blda0S] * Also known as “instantaneous” or “on demand” because they make hot water only when you need it. * When the hot water tap is turned on, cold water travels through a pipe into the tankless heater, and a heating element (usually a gas burner, or sometimes an electric element) heats the water as it travels through the tank. * Popular in Asia and most of Europe. They are starting to gain popularity in the USA. Indirect Water Heater [https://thd.co/2WLuBsu] * Has no direct flame. It relies on a boiler or furnace to produce its heat. It is typically a stainless steel-lined tank that holds a coiled heat exchanger. Boiler water is pumped into the coil through a pipe that connects the units. The coil transfers the heat into the water in the tank. The water from the boiler never mixes with the water in the tank. * You’ll need to have a boiler in your home for this type of water heater. Where to find it? Richard explains different types of hot water heaters you can install in your home: gas storage tank water heater, electric storage tank water heater, hybrid tank water heater, tankless water heater and indirect water heater. Water heaters can be purchased at home centers or sourced through a local HVAC technician or sales representative. The hybrid water heater was manufactured by Viessman Manufacturing [https://ift.tt/3lFtO6i]. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How to Design a High Traffic Landscape | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House landscape contractor Jenn Nawada works with a homeowner who lives on a corner lot create an attractive, durable landscape that can withstand the heavy pedestrian traffic SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Jenn Nawada helps a homeowner deal with a well-trafficked corner of her property. Neighborhood students are trampling the grass while heading to the local bus stop, and dogs have come to frequent the yard for their potty breaks. Jenn knows just what to do to transform the space into a hardy walkway for all to enjoy. Time: 5 hours Skill Level: Beginner Shopping list: Spray paint [https://amzn.to/3uNgRtY] Small boulders [https://amzn.to/3BhyKDv] Stepping stones [https://bit.ly/2YtRYrv] Butterfly bush [https://thd.co/3Bjw48C] Shasta daisies [https://thd.co/3AfLc5t] Panicle hydrangeas [https://thd.co/3msdxRf] Boxwood plant [https://thd.co/3BjKeGO] Thyme [https://thd.co/3lgIQ1Q] Hens and chicks plant [https://thd.co/2YvFlfx] Geraniums [https://thd.co/3aerxZ8] Starter fertilizer [https://amzn.to/3lgJKLM] Mulch [https://thd.co/3FrqMKO] Tools: Sod cutter [https://amzn.to/3uNE2V0] Shovel [https://amzn.to/2ZWF5Xb] Steps for designing a high traffic landscape 1. Mark out the location of the new garden bed area with some spray paint. 2. Strip out the existing grass using a sod cutter. 3. Rake out the soil underneath with a metal rake to ensure a smooth, tilled surface. a. Any time you dig, you have to call your state’s 811. They will check for gas, electrical, and any other local utility lines. 4. Pick out materials that fit the environment. Jenn and the homeowner picked out some New England fieldstone steppers for a walking path and some small boulders to decorate the space. 5. Pick out the plants. When thinking of a high traffic area, remember to look for plants with resiliency. They will need to survive foot traffic, dog urine, and winter and/or extreme heat. When landscaping a corner street, nothing so tall that it blocks visual of oncoming traffic should be used. 6. First lay out your stepping stones and boulders. These items are heavy so Jenn likes to do this task first to ensure no damage is done to the plants. 7. Stage your plants. 8. For each plant, dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the pot of the plant. 9. Remove the plant from the pot. Sometimes gently squeezing the pot will help remove the plant while keeping the root ball intact. 10. Tease the root ball of the plant gently with your fingers to loosen them up. 11. Place the plant in the hole and add starter fertilizer. 12. Backfill the hole with soil. Leave a bit of space ontop to make room for the mulch. 13. Once everything is planted, cover with mulch. 14. Water the plants. Where to find it? Jenn selected plants and materials that could withstand a high level of foot traffic from pedestrians and dogs, as well as snow plows in the winter. For the walking path, she chose New England fieldstone steppers [https://bit.ly/2YtRYrv], which can be found at most stoneyards and landscape supply stores in the Northeast. The plants she selected included Panicle hydrangea [https://thd.co/3msdxRf], thyme [https://thd.co/3lgIQ1Q], shasta daisies [https://thd.co/3AfLc5t], butterfly bush [https://thd.co/3Bjw48C], geranium Rozanne [https://thd.co/3aerxZ8], boxwoods [https://thd.co/3BjKeGO], and hens and chicks [https://thd.co/2YvFlfx], which can all be found at home centers and nurseries.

Celebrating Craftsmanship | Soldering Basics | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey explains some general soldering techniques and how to connect water piping. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Richard Trethewey sits down to explain how to solder and what goes into the process. Something we take for granted is modern plumbing. We have access to clean hot and cold water with a flip of a faucet handle. While PEX has gotten some recent popularity, copper piping is still industry standard for residential plumbing. Soldering is the process used to connect copper pipes together. Richard explains while soldering can be dangerous if not done carefully, the average homeowner could do it themselves. He defines what soldering is and explains how he does it, step by step. Richard also shares what he believes the future has in store for soldering. Time: 30 minutes or less Cost: $50 Skill Level: Moderate Shopping List: Pipes [https://thd.co/3m9Ys6N] Fittings [https://amzn.to/3zXaAww] Flux [https://amzn.to/3ikH0eL] Solder [https://amzn.to/3CUACm6] Safety glasses [https://amzn.to/3AXlfsF] Gloves [https://amzn.to/3ilvTC4] Rags [https://amzn.to/39Uf7Fu] Bucket [https://amzn.to/3kVOI0l] Tools: Torch [https://amzn.to/2ZKX17f] Igniter (if torch doesn’t have one built in) [https://amzn.to/2Y3OfjE] Pipe cutter [https://amzn.to/3F3ZLwH] Pipe cleaning tool(s) [https://amzn.to/2XXdxjz] Deburring tool [https://amzn.to/39SM9G4] Steps for soldering 1. Shut off water and make sure all the water has emptied from the pipes you are working on. Let the pipes dry before soldering or the connection won’t take. 2. Measure and cut the pipes to length using a pipe cutter. Have a bucket ready to catch any remaining water. 3. Clean the inside of the fittings with a wire brush. Clean the outside of the pipes with a wire brush or emery cloth. Clean up the inside of the pipes by removing any burrs that resulted from cutting the pipes. 4. Add flux to the inside of the fitting and the outside of the pipe. 5. Connect the pipe to the fitting. Making sure it is all the way in. 6. If you are working around wood, use a heat shield. Richard keeps a spray bottle of water handy to wet any wood that will be close to the flame. 7. Put on safety glasses while using a blow torch. Gloves are recommended in case you accidentally touch any hot surfaces. 8. Hold the torch on the opposite side of where you plan to apply to solder. Wait a few minutes to allow the pipe to heat up, and then gently touch the pipe with the solder. If it quickly wraps around the entire connection, then it took properly. If it did not, continue to heat the pipe up and try again. 9. Wipe down the excess solder with a rag. Where to find it? To solder, Richard explains that you need solder, flux, a blowtorch, a pipe cutter, and a pipe cleaning tool. Depending on the location of the work, protective items, such as a spray bottle of water or a flame shield, may also be needed. All of these items can be found at home centers and plumbing supply houses. Looking for more step by step guidance on how to complete projects around the house?

How to Understand Two-Prong Outlets | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House electrician Heath Eastman explains what two-prong receptacles are, why they’re no longer to code, and how to replace them. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. What should a person do with their two-pronged outlet when so many cords have three-prongs? To answer this, Heath has to take a step back and clarify a few things. He goes through the correct terminology of an outlet, a receptacle, and a receptacle outlet. Afterwards, Heath explains that the number of prongs has more to do with the wiring behind the receptacle than it does with the receptacle itself. Pre-1960’s, homes used two conductors, but post-1960’s a third conductor was introduced for safety, the ground wire. The ground wire will safely carry a stray, potentially dangerous, current away from risk of causing a fire or electrocution. Heath then explains that replacing them can be costly if there is no ground present, as it will require rewiring the whole room or home. However, he shares another way to get a grounded, three-prong receptacle without rewiring- using a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Heath explains how the GFCI receptacle outlet works and gives some tips on how to install one. Cost: $20 for a GFCI and $200 for professional installation Shopping List: GFCI outlet [https://amzn.to/2WsbjZb] Cover plate [https://amzn.to/3usOH7j] Tools: Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/3kUsewI] Voltage tester [https://amzn.to/3AYpwvY] Terminology: Outlet—Anything that has a power current taken out and utilized. For example: appliance outlets, smoke detector outlets, and lighting outlets. Receptacle—Is an outlet. A contact device installed at the outlet for the attachment of an attachment plug. Steps for installing a GFCI outlet 1. Turn off the power to the receptacle. Use a voltage tester to confirm. 2. Remove the cover plate with a screwdriver. 3. Disconnect the receptacle from the electrical box using a screwdriver. 4. Loosen the wires on the hot and neutral sides of the outlet. If the power isn’t shut off, the screws are where you’ll be shocked. 5. Remove the outlet. 6. Before installing the GFCI, make sure there is enough room in the old outlet box. If the GFCI is too big, you’ll need to purchase and install a larger box. 7. Repeat the process in reverse with the GFCI receptacle. Resources: Where to find it? A room will have to be rewired if there isn’t a ground present. However, if you want to have a grounded, three-prong receptacle without rewiring, you can also use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) found at any home center.

How to Paint Outdoor Railings | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House painter Mauro Henrique paints an outdoor railing that Nathan just built to match the original railing around a homeowner’s deck. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. After Nathan Gilbert installs new deck stair railings, Mauro swings by to finish the job. He uses a sample of the paint from the existing railing and has it color matched at a nearby home center. He then demonstrates how to prime and paint the stairs. Time: 4 hours Cost: $100 Skill Level: Beginner Shopping List: Painter’s tape (exterior grade) [https://amzn.to/3im4j7Q] Dropcloth [https://amzn.to/3kSHAlA] 180-grit sandpaper [https://amzn.to/2XZ8fUK] Gloves [https://amzn.to/3ilvTC4] N-95 mask [https://amzn.to/3usSmC5] Vacuum [https://amzn.to/2ZMpCJp] Oil-based primer [https://amzn.to/39SScug] Exterior wood filler [https://amzn.to/3zXb99Z] Tools: Random orbital sander [https://amzn.to/3us7r6P] Mini roller [https://amzn.to/3A0654q] 2 ½” paint brush [https://amzn.to/3AWo7pF] Steps for painting outdoor railings 1. Use painter’s tape to protect the deck and the older railing. 2. Put a dropcloth down to catch any debris, primer, or paint. 3. Use 180-grit sandpaper to sand down any imperfections in the wood. Mauro used a sanding block for the balusters and a random orbital sander for the posts and railings to get the job done quicker on the larger areas. a. Wear a mask and gloves to protect yourself from splinters. 4. Vacuum all the debris. 5. Start priming. Use a mini roller for the larger areas and a paint brush for the areas that are harder to get to. 6. Focus on the bottom wood, that’s where most of the water will end up. 7. Let the primer dry before painting, wait about an hour. 8. Fill in any nail holes with exterior grade wood filler. 9. Paint. 10. Let the first coat dry and add the second coat. Where to find it? Mauro wanted to match the paint color of the existing deck, which he did by bringing a small sample of the existing paint to a local paint store. Most paint stores and home centers have machines that can scan a sample and generate a close color match to the paint. The paint Mauro used for the railings was Behr Premium Plus Exterior Semi-Gloss paint and primer (https://ift.tt/2RCzfTY), though he also used a separate, oil-based primer for the base coat.

How to Build a Deck Railing | Ask This Old House

In this video, Ask This Old House carpenter Nathan Gilbert builds and installs a railing for deck stairs that will match the original railing around the rest of the deck. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse. Nathan Gilbert and Mauro Henrique make a house call to help a homeowner build, install, and paint a deck stair railing. The stair entrance to the deck on the front side of the house has a railing, but the backyard entrance does not. This troubled the homeowner because she has a young son that loves to play in the backyard, and she’s worried he might fall off the steps. Nathan agrees, there are four risers and any stairs that have over two should have a railing for safety. Since there are railing throughout the rest of the deck, Nathan plans to build a replica railing to match so it looks like they were always there.

For material, Nathan picked up wood made of fir, which is a great material for decks and is water resistant. It also takes paint better than pressure treated wood does. 2. Remove the bottom stair deck boards. 3. To find out what you need to notch out of the post, use one of the 2x4’s and plumb a level from the stringer. Make a mark on the inside of the level and take a measurement for the cut. 4. Take the notch out of the posts. 5. Make the top of the post from 45 degree cuts all around. 6. Drill a couple pilot holes at the bottom of each post for the structural screws. 7. Put the post in place, make sure it is level and plumb. 8. Secure posts by screwing in the structural screws. 9. Find the angle and length of the bottom and top rails by laying the two pieces together on the nose of each stair tread, and mark where they hit each post. 10. The angle of the rails will be the same angle the balusters will need to be cut. 11. Make the cuts. 12. Spray the ends of the balusters and rails with primer. 13. Assemble the balusters to the top and bottom railings. 14. Install it to the posts. Where to find it? Nathan built the deck stair railing out of fir decking in a variety of sizes, including 2x4”s for the top and bottom rails, 4x4”s for the posts, and 2x2”s for the balusters. To cut the lumber to size, Nathan used a sliding compound miter saw, which is manufactured by Dewalt [https://amzn.to/3B9AP4g]. Expert assistance with this segment was provided by William C.
