I had a really old Stud Pack video come through my feed a few days ago and I watched it. To see Paul smoothing through those sponsorship spiels like he does now is amazing compared to the man of few words in that early video. A stud is born...Great time to be alive. Keep up the great work.

The scaffold was the BEST investment!!!

Hey Studpack just wanted to say I’ve been watching you guys for years and I can honestly say you guys are the biggest reason why I left my full time job in the trades (plumbing/HVAC/electrical) to go solo and start my own remodeling business. It has been going great and I have to say you guys are playing a very big part in my success. Just seeing you guys do things and go about different ways of installing any and everything really helps when I have to come up with solutions on my own jobs. Much love from Palacios Home Services, we’re out of AZ so we know how it is when it comes to working outside in this heat!

I used these gecko guages and resided my last house on my own. Cost me about 5k to side house. When I sold it in 2022, my realtor said the siding added 50 to 60k t the house. They worked great

The limitation of relying entirely on Geiko is shown on your last top course at a 6 3/4". reveal. The exposure of the last 4 or 5 courses could have been adjusted incrementally by 1/16 to 1/8" without ever being noticed.

We all know that Paul is the coolest on the job sight.

Dude you’re renewing my faith in humanity. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Straight to the point. Tons of valuable information. Wish we were related!

Your square pencil is both a quarter inch and half inch spacer. It will probably be easier to find than that board after a week or two.

The camera work and lighting along with audio on each episode of Stud Pack is first rate. Thumbs up to the editing of the video prior to publishing it each week. Stud Pack offers the highest quality video on KZfaq. Good entertainment for the whole family to enjoy!

damn! that 1000$ bathroom really lasted way longer😂 Just binge watched the series - the progress is insane!

The man of few words speaks and his wisdom is... NO FARMER TANS! 😂😎👍

Being a old AZ boy .. where summer starts in May, and that means its over 100 and doesn't drop until October .. I feel for ya! LoL!! Totally enjoying your home build, I miss those days, nothing like the smell of a freshly framed house in the morning. :))

Cannot believe that a lot with some drainage issues has turned into an amazing structure. I really appreciate being able to see the real struggles that have gone into getting this built. I can understand now why I see houses take awhile to go up, and maybe why I should look closer at houses that do go up super quick. Thank you all for your hard work!

That siding looks great and a lot more complicated than you would think.

geckos for life.. I install by myself with those thingamajigs. Like another helping hand

It was an absolute pleasure meeting you guys at IBS in Vegas. You are phenomenal! I learn new techniques every video I see. Keep them coming!!!! Thank you!

22 minutes of studpack heaven. I’ve always wondered about the gaps since most houses have hardy siding these days. Only 11 months to where you guys are is pretty impressive.

Man, I love seeing family build shit together! Makes me happy

Segment your starter in pieces so if water gets behind the siding by some chance it isn’t trapped on top the starter

I would cut the flashing 1/2” long then make a 1/4” cut on each side and tap the 1/4” flange Over the edge of the top trim. This will make it so that water won’t wick underneath the flashing at the edges and get on the top of your trim

music and intro of this episode gave me this old house vibes love it

this POV is great. It's just like being at work, without being at work.

Paul is so likeable, I even enjoy his sponsorship plugs. Thank you.

I still remember when you guys first started talking about this on video, you've come so far and I am so happy for you. So proud of where you have taken this channel too. I just love watching all of you. Best diy construction channel ever

new video while you are in Las Vegas is a pleasant surprise. hope the expo is going great, much love to the gang!

I hung my siding solo and those gecko gauges are a life saver!

Geckos for siding are awesome. Used them on my farmhouse... whatta time saver. Zero guesswork and the rows came out perfect.

Thanks for the tip about placing the flashing behind the siding joints. I'll be sure to use it the next time I do siding. The story pole is an excellent tip for double checking the alignment.

That view on the end with you walking along the finished siding and the small windows really screws with my European mind. My mind constantly defaults back to thinking you're walking along a nice shed (which we typically finish with siding) despite me knowing you're high up on scaffolding next to a massive 2 story garage. I've said it before underneath a previous video but I'll say it again: We Europeans tend to mock the North-American way of building, but with this attention to detail and quality materials this building is just as solid as the brick buildings over here and probably tighter as well. This ain't your typical American plastic-sided builders-grade excuse of a house, this is quality!

Once again the Stud Pack team did an awesome job. Love the extras you always give on the job. I learn something new every time I watch your vids. Thanks!

18:06 shark fin creeping in from the bottom. 😂

14:30 a bird?! Now where did he learn that from? 🤔😁

Haven’t text for a long time guys but still watching every show still enjoying it. You guys are fun to watch. Keep up the good work.

You should really put a rain screen behind hardie.. too late now, but you should really consider it on the main house build..

Finally realised Jordan reminds me of Bud off married with children.

Hey guys. You must get yourself a sky-hook for your coil nailer. I hook my gun on the scaffolding or on my tool belt. The less times I have to bend over to pick up the nailer makes for a better day. Great job guys!👍

Thanks for the big tip about the zip tie on the nail gun. So easy for our eyes to get out of 'calibration' when eyeballing it then you end up with shiners.

The amount of wonderful and useful content that you guys put out is, in my humble opinion, equivalent to a university degree or diploma from a trade school. I've learnt so much and I am sure many others feel the same!

I love that you show us new tools and skills all the time.

Been here since you started this awesome project, and was there way before that when you were still in Louisiana. I even grew up in the Houston area, but based on your general description of your location and the size of the Houston metro area, you'd have to pack a lunch to get to see the house I grew up in, and might need another snack or two on the way back home. (Those who have never lived in Houston may think this is an exaggeration, but nope, it's a BIG sprawled out metropolis!) That said, I've got a brother in Magnolia, and I suspect that is close. Anyway, the project is coming together beautifully. Now, when you get to the main house, hire a crew to do the foundation. It was painful watching the throes you had to go through to get that finally completed. Everything else has been all-pro! And as always, there is a thumb up, because I enjoy watching other people working!

I re-sided my house a couple of summers ago with Hardie Plank. Those gecko gauges make it straightforward, and the 12 foot long planks can be handled by a single person. Used the Diablo blades for my miter and circular saw recommended by Hardie. They have a great system; very weather- and fire-resistant. Spouse was very happy with the results. 😀

Loving all the details!

It looks so good!!!

Thanks for not bluring out Rad ;-)

20:40 - once you realized that top board was going to be 3/4 inch additional reveal, you could have adjusted the reveal of the three or four boards beneath that to spread that 3/4 inch out; each of the three boards at an extra 1/4 inch wouldn’t be too noticeable from the ground.

you guys are killing it !!!!!

You make it look easy thank you for sharing

Looks amazing. Great work.

Looking awesome guys!!

Can't wait to see it painted!

Amazing work guys! You are killing it!!!!

Looking great fellas. Excellent video. They always are!

Looking awesome!!! Cant wait to see the front and back done then paint!!!!

Going to be interesting watching you cut that installed Hardiboard back from the opening/skybridge to accommodate the trim.

STUD PACK! Love it!

Great videos guys. look forward to the next ones.

A+ Siding Install! Was fun to watch and to learn many tricks. Thanks!

Those time lapse shots from the existing house roof, were great. Keep up the fantastic work...viewer for life!

Awesome job guys!

You guys are as much fun to watch as ever. I always learn something. Love your background music, too.

OoOOoOoo my day is now complete! Looks fantastic fellas, I can't wait to see the finished interior lighting! Pretty stoked for that video.

I have been watching your channel from the beginning. Love the work you are doing!

Love seeing this coming together! Great job, love the pacing of the video and how you are explaing the steps, good choices. Can't wait to see how it looks all painted up!

Thanks for the video!

Siding is absolutely great!

good clean wholesome educational content

I don't know what it is about this channel. It's the only building channel I'm subscribed to but I get really excited when I see there's a new Stud Pack video. I've said this 100 times but Paul presents like he's been working on these shows for years. Jordan does a heck of a job with the production, it's seriously like watching TV only better... no commercials! 👍 💪(KZfaq Premium).🫡 Thanks for bringing us along for the ride fellas! 👍

Another great teaching video from Studpack. Jordan and Rad are both great!

You didn't have to flash the window trim if you flashed the window, but doesn't hurt.

Great job stud pack crew. Enjoy every video. Can’t wait for the next one

Another great show guys!! Thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom and progress with us! We really appreciate it!!

Excellent lap siding class. The garage studio is looking awesome!

The siding looks bad ass!! Good job gang!!

Missed you all at the builders show. Hope it was fun here in Vegas. Great videos guys...

Lovin it! Way to go guys! That's gonna be one fine looking garage apartment! 👍❤️👍

Looking great guys! Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming!

After last springs rain, I feel like on the anniversary of the slab pour, Jordan is going to walk outside, stare at the stars, take a deep breath, and flip off the sky. Lol.

Great work fellas!

Great episode guys.

Thanks for doing this series. I'll be replacing my vinyl siding with hardie soon and watching you do it is building up the confidence since I've never done it before. Thanks!

Looks great - great job as always! I am happy that you are getting this done because it has been a lot of work.

I used the same hardie siding and those gecko gauges. I was able to install it all by myself in 2 days. Would’ve been impossible without them

I can't believe a year has passed. Great job guys

Super smart to put your joints where the bridge is going. Great attention to detail!

I've been watching your channel since you started I think lol love the garage/house can't wait to see the house brilliant job guys

Looks Beautiful..

love these guys

Love those things especially when your uphigh by yourself. Worth every penny and more. Keep up the amazing job.

Looks great

When I was a contractor I used those but they were sold by Pacific and you can get them for a 4" lap instead of the 6". when I retired I sold them to another contractor who uses them to this day.

looking great fellas, love the work and attention to detail - its going to make building the house so much easier after going through this whole process. enjoy some weekend beers!

Thank you for an awesome video to fill the time between my parent-teacher conferences (that go until 9pm tonight) with educational material that will trickle down into my FACS classes. We are deep into our housing unit right now.

Looking great.

I can only imagine how much you guys are going to enjoy hanging out in that place when it's done. Something to be very proud of, no doubt. Thanks for sharing the adventure. Such a good group of guys.

hey, new to your channel and i love it! wish i had found you guys sooner your content is amazing i've just spent the last two weeks watching the dream house build trying to find every bit of time to watch and catch up. keep up the amazing work guys much love from the UK.

You all are equally cool! Love your channel, been watching you guys for years. Well Rad more recently but Jordan and Dad for years. You are gonna have an awesome house soon Jordan!!

😮 starter strip. So stinkin' smart. Great video

I can't wait to see the full studpack compound finished. The garage is looking great. Have ya'll considered heading over to Demolition Ranch to do some work on the resort once this is finished and before you start the house build

Awesome video as always! Stay safe!!

People say they hate Hardie siding because it's difficult to work with and brittle. I am doing my house slowly with it and I just tell them they are doing it wrong. Easy to do, WITH THE RIGHT TOOLS, looks great and lasts a long time.
