Just a descriptive video meant to help anybody who wants to do J Channel for themselves or pick up a few pointers to impress your co workers or boss. lots of ways to do this, I've been doing windows like this for years and years. on family, friends and clients houses. I hope you learned something, and enjoyed.
For the J channel challenge, just do a window, complete, with whichever style you do your windows normally. no need to put UT in your bottom. just do exactly as I did with the window and make sure you post your link on this video in the "pinned comment" section. thanks again!!!
If anybody blows me away I'll send them 100$ speedway gift card just like in the onesquarechallenge

This is why its good for Supervisors to do installs in the field with their crew. To catch, and correct mistakes, AND to get reminded why jobs sometimes take longer then THEY thought it should. Good for everyone involved.

ANY good supervisor already “assumes” jobs will take longer than they should. Even when I estimated contracts I always added extra manpower time into my pricing because NO two jobs are alike, no two crews are alike, etc. For example, I shouldn’t expect the same amount of “work” in a day from a team of one journeyman and a helper as opposed to pairing up two of my top paid guys together. Luckily for me a fire sprinkler contractor it was always pretty “easy” to estimate these numbers. Is he a 30 buck an hour guy? That means he should be giving me 30 cutbacks a day on average. It helps that I started my trade from the very bottom as a “shop kid” making 40 bucks a DAY and worked my way up to now running my own business successfully for more than a decade though.🤷‍♂️

As a tradesman myself, I ALWAYS took the time to teach. 10minutes to show a green guy the “right” way to do something was always better than an hour fixing what they tried to figure out on their own. My favorite “helpers” were the ones who were eager to learn and asked a lot of questions and they eventually blossomed into some of my favorite journeymen to work alongside of. Even with 15 years in my trade I’m STILL always open to suggestions/tips from the guys who came before me.

Good job! Love a young man who loves his profession. I trained plumbers for over forty year’s. Many came back years later to thank me that owned their own business. And many who I taught the correct way but started cutting corners soon went bankrupt. The only way in the long run of any business is to do it right the first time. Well done and know you will be a successful business for many years to come.

I've been siding for about 20 years. I exclusively do Smartside but did vinyl for about 10 years. I learned this method about 8 years in and I never turned back. If you put it on first and mark everything with a pencil i found it was way more precise than measuring. Also... with the nail flange on the window we used to bend out the front of the J from the back just a bit so the channel doesn't roll forward and get it nice and tight to the window. Hands down best way to do channel. Great video brother! Just the tip😂😂 glad we aren't the only ones who make that joke.

Many thanks for the great vid! An extra step worth considering is flashing beneath the side J-channel bottoms: Cut a piece of flashing out of felt paper or flashing tape and install it at the bottom corners of the windows before installing the bottom & side J-channels. Overlap the flashing onto the siding course just below the window. Now, water that runs inside the side J-channels will come out on top of the siding & out it's weep holes, not behind it.

Damn good job there. Wish I was still doing this stuff to be able to use your techniques. One thing I would throw out there that may help someone as it can be easily overlooked, is that when we would do a job like this with new windows being installed, we wouldn’t install the screens for the windows until the very end after the siding. This helps prevent anybody from putting a hole in the screen when they aren’t paying attention. (We had a few guys that were drawn to them like magnets and would inevitably end up putting a hole in one) Anyway keep up the good work

I will say that flinging those metal snips around pointing at the J and coming so close to the glass got me nervous a few times, but all is well that ends well (an inch is as good as a mile when it comes to hit or miss).

I enjoyed the videos I watched. The thing I liked best about your video was the comment you made near the end. "Fast doesn't matter if it's not quality." I worked with a wonderful older gentleman who took me under his wing and taught me volumes of things. One of his lessons and a Howard ism was "There is never time to do it right, but there is always time to do it over." Compared to most guys I've worked I am slow but I feel I always did quality work. I also had to go back and fix other people's work.

Newbie here. Great video. I bought the $50 j channel notcher, thinking it would make the job easier. After seeing this video, I stand corrected. It is more difficult to use notcher the colder it gets. It is supposed to have two settings, one to notch two sides to leave the hinge and one to notch all three sides to completely remove notch. When it's cold out, it wants to take the whole notch out every time. Returning this tool tomorrow! Thanks again for the great videos.

I just 45 one piece in the corners and leave the end kinda square so that way you get a perfect 45 when the 45 overlaps the square end. It's perfect every time and saves time. Like when you hold it up to mark where to trim it back just cut that line but no need to to 45 your other piece with the 45 will slide right over it giving you a perfect 45 and never a gap between the two. Pieces where they meet. Hope this makes sense

When you trim out your windows with aluminum I do the built in window j. Also I use the midwest snips from menards. But out of all the people iv seen j channel in my 7 years of doing siding theres only 3 or 4 people I no who can j channel good. And yours looks good. Keep taking pride in your work

I installed J channel on 2 windows and they looked terrible. Watched your video, twice, and went and started over with your methods and they turned out very well. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks for a great tutorial for us DIY folks.

Also, the fumbling around with the "speed' square did make it super confusing to my trainees, I'm having them watch this because I think there is alot of things we can pick up on what to do and what not to Do. Always want your 45 point furthest away from the window 🪟, it's the same exact angle that's already on the window frame itself, hard to mess that up. Thanks brother.
