Neil is the man! Great demonstration

Great content and great pace.

Liking the duct work and sheet metal videos. Keep them coming! Something not many people show

“Squeeze!” You’re a great instructor!

Im really liking these duct videos!

Definitely going to try this for package units

Love your training. Please have more vids about duct strategy and installation for whole house or business. Thank you very much

Good video. Could use without the loud music. Thanks

Wish i lived in Florida, id love to work with some of the team from hvac school

Great video, but I would hate if that ugly caulking job was on my system. Maybe use clear caulk or find a cleaner way to seal that up.

Nice job, but you should have put the caulked seam to the rear so it was not showing.

You could also use canvas tape to seal instead of using caulking.

Do you guys like canvas or is it better to go with hard metal all the way. I have a canvas one now. I'm doing a whole change out and can re-do it similar or different. ideas? and why

Why not use a canvas staple instead of screws.

We always used contact adhesive for the canvas lap, like what you use on Armaflex and then staples to help hold it too...it was fast and Waaay less messy than caulk. You say leak free...looks like you S cleats were a bit too short and you will have much more leakage on those corners with a short S, than you will ever have at the canvas seam. Put a dab of that caulk in the corner before you bend that drive over and you WILL have a leak free canvas connector. Just sayin.. other than that nice work.

What if you have 2 different sized ducts to connect?

Looks good. But I would have used black caulk if I was going to have a bead showing.

Awesome. Thanx for the vid. The jerks who installed my furnace/ductwork did not install this & all the noise from the furnace now gets transmitted mechanically to the floor joices. Wanna come to my house to install one? Come on...it only took 7:42.

You can do all that sealing up internally so it doesn't look so nasty... Other than that looks good.

Hopefully in a customer's home you put that caulked joint to the rear/less visible side!!!!

Me talking to my boss What's up boss How is it going Going good just waiting for the air tight canvass to dry. What?!?!🤢 what do you mean dry? Didnt you ever hear of metal tape...pack up your tools ill have the kid finish the metal.. Lol

What is that tape called

With that tape it doesn't seem like you need caulk at all and definitely not the screws in the canvas. That should be airtight though.

So what are the benefits of using a canvas connector?

Everything is good except for the usage of Caulk. Now it is semiflexible.

I would have liked to show my student's this on remote learning, but there are too many problems I see. First, always use a speed square or Tee square don't measure down both sides if the end isn't cut right your corners will be crooked, and I like folding it the opposite way it looks so much more beautiful. Everyone should know always put the sealant on last, so you don't get it all over your hands and tools and use clear, not white on black canvas. Also, screws in the canvas, really?

I cannot believe a sheet metal mechanic would think a loose fold for the drive is acceptable... Perhaps this is not a journeyman SM mechanic

The caulking could of been applied to the inside. It would of looked cleaner and no one would ever know.

Not impressed. At least put the caulking to the back side where you don’t see it. Do I have to make a real video of how this is done?

Worst connection ever seen

I know you think that music is awesome, but.........👎 I think I would have hid that ugly caulk seem in the back. Good tutorial though.
