I am a well seasoned finish carpenter. Although I've installed thousands of miles of base over the years. I really enjoy watching this video, and your others this channel. I think you're somewhat the Bob Ross of carpentry for me. You have a fantastic attitude and you are really enjoyable to listen to. You also are a very good instructor. The new wave of carpenters coming up now are lucky to have this resource, and would benefit greatly from watching your channel. I've been at this a long time, and I'm not ashamed to say that I've learned some valuable bits from your channel. I've always liked learning new processes and techniques, as well as, seeing that the some of the ones I employ still hold up. Lastly, with the stresses that Covid has brought and the insane work load I have these days. I've been grudgingly going to the next home to start the next project. Somehow you've inspired me to tool up with a fresh and positive attitude again. And for that I thank you.

On jobs I manage, I'll use a piece of 1/4" plywood with a cutout of 1 1/2" wide by 2" deep and attach to a stick roughly 3 feet long. A can of spray paint and setting the cutout next to each stud makes short work of marking each stud on a job. It saves time for every trade from framing on and in my opinion, is time well spent to do.

I cut the longest pieces first, leaving any outside miters rough to be marked directly, & standing up the off-cuts so it's easy to select lengths for little waste. Then cut & install the furthest & most visible pieces in each room wall to wall. I take all measurements wall to wall, noting "-TK", ">", or "L" on the cut list for needed cuts. Pre-sanding will make the finish come out better, & a micro bevel on the bottom edge helps the painter keep paint off the finish floor.

As a trim and handrail contractor myself I agree with you on how much fine detail is needed or not needed on some things. Trim now a days is for the most part, paint grade. So there’s a painter following behind you filling your small gaps. But I don’t install trim with the mentality of “try your best...caulk the rest”. Pride in work and efficiency is your only key to success.

First off I think your videos are great. You are definitely a skilled and knowledgeable craftsman and I appreciate the time you take to share with us all. My comment is about the gap that almost always occurs in the lower portion of the baseboard at the inside corners. I work from left to right so before I install a room I go to every left inside corner and shoot a 15g -2.5" nail down low and at about a 45° angle into the bottom plate. It will stick out proud. If I am going from the corner to corner I will go slightly strong on my next measurement and when I install I fit the two corners and bow out the middle. When I push in the middle the nail will give a little but just enough that the fit is tight at both top and bottom at the inside corner. Throw some thorns in it and move on! Can't remember the last time I ever had to use a bar to pull the bottom of a baseboard out after I tried this. Works for square base and coped base. Just my 2 cents for what it's worth. Cheers!

Nice! What I try to do..is do the external mitres first, that way, it gives you a bit of lee-way to to get the mitres fitting perfectly...then, your now shortened base board gaps at the internal corners can be filled with filler no problem. 👍

I never thought of using a stud finder, so much faster, I would find a stud then mark the rest , takes a lot of time and unnecessary moving, I always lay all the flooring first then trim is the last...love all the tips

Spencer, this may start sounding a bit strange coming from an 80 year old auto mechanic but ! I wish I had mechanics working for me that thought like you do carpentry. That being the away you approach your work . Seems to me you constantly are evaluating the job, “how can I improve, the ,quality, the speed , give my customer more value by selecting me , and make a good living at the same time”. Your common since approach and constant effort to refine your skills is a rare quality in the work force no matter what the industry. I doubt there are few nights your go to bed and not think about those things. You are a rare bird. , Mike

When I learned framing layout, I was taught to lay everything out from left to right. This is helpful to know when nailing base. From left to right there is stud every 16”. That eliminates the need for stud finders.

Awesome work! Square butt insides always turn out the best with flat stock. As we know coped corners are the best corner. Another good tip to save a large amount of time is never numbering the walls or pieces. I always draw out the floor plan measure clockwise cut clockwise then distribute counter clockwise. I even save more time not crossing each number off my cut list. Only when I go to distribute the material or leave my cut bench for any reason I mark the next piece on my list so I know where I left off. Been doing it for 15 years lots.of time saved! Great videos keep up the good work. I love being able to pick up other peoples tricks of the trades.

I don’t like how the straight cut butts into the piece that’s been round over.
