Craftsmen Carpenters

Carpenters Draft


 Custom Carpentry starts in the Mind! This vision to fix the Clients/DIYers & too once a for all correct it. So, to create their desired Project starts with an open ear, just listen through council and create a solution! My 2011 F-150 FORD Truck competes as much as it Completes My Betterments. Ford wrote the book on Work Trucks ...... I.M.O.!!

Tapered Craftsman porch columns sit atop these methodically fabricated & installed bases that will now slope away wetness when being moistened by Man or Nature from this day forward.

The lower image is a cut off of a 45° piece that shows the mindful adjusting of the saws used. And the end grain allows one too when hand selecting this commodity, it's always beneficial that NO first year signs of growth will cause future issues. Look up F.O.H.C. to get my drift. And remember this Carpenter believes,
All's Good if it's Made with Wood!
*When it's Wood it's All Good, THANK YOU!!

The wall mounted T.V. bracket required extra in wall backing to attach to the framing for positive contact, so too keep it in the  precise center location of its desired room locale.

Carpenters DIY


 Time will allow any true DIY'er the ability too learn, the Carpenters help there folks needed, because the prior Carpenters did not allow for any pre-protection on this moisture damaged 20' patio ledger that needed replacing. So when Craigs Clout got the Carpentry correction call to Repair it, I made it clear that this Carpenter will pre back prime it,  I.O.W. protect any material thats hidden, so the painter will not be ever touching those areas of pieces placed. And this Carpenter used the
 ( helper Jig I used) to carry the weight of the other end of this 2x6 (image above)
All things are possible in a "can do" thought path!

Drywall Repair



 This client had an old appliance replaced that left some Drywall/Plaster repairs needed. So these kind of Drywall/Plaster Patches is also know in the field, to Artisans, as a Fire Plug. Named for its ease of not having the costly chore of adding any additional 2x's or further demo-ing back to the existing Stud that makes for costly waste of time & quite the dusty mess!
Simply just bury methodically removing the back section of the Drywall and leaving the front part entack to allow the mudd too hold the existing Plaster Repair, therefore, appear -ing as if You had to never do any work @ all! Win-Win, let's work smart rather than hard

The Drywalls frontal existing paper used & remains as proper old too new Drywall Patch Taping. ( Images shown) A clever substitute for the mesh or paper corner drywall type! Have a Great New Year Readers and thanks again for allowing Me too help with Your DIY projects @ Home!
