"while y'all were up here doing nothing, I was down here working hard" - The most dad'est thing ever spoken at work

It’s always amazing what one coat of wall treatment does to a project.

Excellent work gentlemen! It's hard to believe a year ago you were fighting with the elements trying to get the foundation and grey beam done. What a journey. You should be very proud.

What a coincidence, I open KZfaq right as you uploaded this

Since binge watching all your videos about the house, this is the first time I'm here right on release. Right on! Congrats on the project!

Paul taking the effort to get the edges just perfect? Love it. Definitely a labor of love even if it is a garage. A great job will go unnoticed while mistakes stick out like a sore thumb

Sherwin Williams makes the best paint on the market today. I was told by a professional painter to look for a high percentage of aluminum dioxide in the paint. That is why Sherwin Williams paint are more expensive, but it is worth it.

Can I just say the production value is on point! It’s very cool having watched your channel for years to see the progression. You guys really are pros. Thanks for all you do.

WE are so proud & impressed! Not too long ago there was a huge mud puddle & now there's a BIG ASS BEAUTIFUL GARAGE! FKN AWESOME! Can't wait to see the house build start! Be calm Jordan...it's on it's way! Great job guys!

Wilhelm Scream at 21:00 😆

Hey guys, I love the channel! Home Inspector here in Fort Worth but I grew up north of Houston. I can honestly say your channel has made me a better home inspector and I’m seriously grateful. Loving this journey with y’all

My wife loves me watching these videos. You guys motivate me to do something off of the ‘honey do’ list. 😂 keep up the great work, love this build.

I didn't realize how dirty my monitor screen was until I watched you apply white paint! 😀

One of my favorite things about a build is how it starts off everything is oppressively bright in full sun all day, then you build up walls and there’s some shade and then a roof and it’s suddenly very dim, but as you add the drywall and the paint the whole space brightens up. 😊

The quality of paint has changed so much in my life time. 40 yrs, 20yrs paint has gotten so much better. The price has sadly gotten 10X higher, but I will admit- paint has gotten so much better, and stronger.

Paul, add this to your finishing armament...3M 2.5 in. x 4.5 in. x 1 in. 120 Fine Grit Pro Grade Angled Drywall Sanding Sponge. This is the green/aqua sanding sponge found at HD. Eliminates the hassles in the two way or three way corners. Found this out from Vancouver Carpenter channel. He is an absolute master teacher for drywall finishing and error corrections, or "how do I possibly fix THAT??". Also happens to be a pretty good skateboarder to boot. The sponges aren't really cheap, but they last and really save time and frustration in the corners. Great job by all you guys 👍👍👍.

Amazing what y’all have accomplished since you broke ground a little over a year ago! Coming up on the finish line now!

love to see your progress, and thank you for working your butt off to give us many entertaining videos

Good call on the corner trowel..I also hate it. Used it once and ended up in the recycling bin. Love the vacuum sander. I have the conventional one without the vacuum. Works great but sure does leave a lot of dust. I'll certainly invest in the one you used. Great paint job guys.

Enjoy the heck out of your guy’s videos! Always cracks me up when you do things like, when you yell when you hit a bug lol! Entertaining! 😂😂😂 Love all your tips & tricks. Especially sharing your challenges & how to avoid or fix them!! Might consider throwing a light, one pass coat of primer on the bottom (back side) of your steps! Helps seal & more importantly deter any bugs, spider issues. Makes easy to see any critter-bugs on them!

It looks great... You're moving along and the attention to details really makes a difference in the final product

You guys are doing a great job! After 45 years of doing this myself, I'm glad to see you being very particular about everything! Using the top line is very important but you want to make sure the product doesn't flash when you're doing touch ups. I hated repainting entire walls for one ding.

Absolutely stunning build guys. It just keeps getting more and more impressive.

Heck yeah!! Looks great guys

This gets more beautiful every second. 🎉

What an awesome change primer and paint made.

You are so right about the paint. I’ve learned (the hard way) to buy the best paint you can afford. I stopped buying paint at the big box stores and only buy at paint shops where they have solid people working there and sell the best products. I’ve found that even name brand to name brand, stay away from buying paint at the big box stores. Besides, dealing with local paint stores helps a local business person. Nice work guys!

I liked the "Wilhelm Scream" at around 20:56 (during the garage sanding). 👍👍 FYI: The Wilhelm Scream was first heard in the 1951 film "Distant Drums." It has since been used in hundreds of films, including Star Wars. •••

Love it!!! Can't believe you've done almost of this with just the three of you. Look forward to each new video. Keep 'em coming!!!

Again another fine job by studpack. Y'all do marvelous work so much effort goes in to detail it's just amazing keep up the fine work and God bless

Watching this and flashing back to the rain soaked foundation dig- that wasn’t too long ago but is epic how far you have come

I am getting quite excited for you guys! It has been over a year and the build of the apartment/garage is nearing completion! What a difference priming and painting makes!

Whew! Lot of work. Looking good.

I love that y’all covered the receptacle and switch boxes with paper before priming and painting. Kudos! Every production home I’ve seen, they just spray right over the wires inside the box. Makes for a very sloppy install. It’s looking sooo good, guys! 👊🏼

Love the lighting and of course the exceptional work being done thank you 😊

OUTSTANDING!!!!! Ive watched just about ebery video since you guys started the channel. I look forward to every installment like its a TV series. I love the family working together. I wish that I couldve did projects with my dad like this before he passed away of cancer.

Great job, guys!

It's looking good, Guys! Keep on keeping on! I'm with you.

I beat you guys! LOL Been working on my 420 sq.ft Tiny House as long as you been building the dream house. Lol ! Seriously still have to do all my trim and blocking up the outside, and cut out kitchen sink and hooking it up! But I did move in on April fools, No joke! I went with all white and my trim will be dark brown so it will definately make the sherwin Willams white Satin pop! Have enjoyed watching your videos in between working on tiny house , and on those days I felt sluggish ,I watch your videos and it always seem to motivate and inspire me , not to mention when I pull up your videos on whatever I would be doing next and got all of those tips! Thank you guys and keep up the good work. Tomarrow I gotta cut out the Wood countertop for the kitchen sink It is giving me a fit today I had to start over with laying it out, found a mistake before I cut it , it may have worked but when it cost $510 and is 1 of a kind I get alittle nervous ! LOL! I was alittle close to the front cabinet edge and so I moved it in quarter of an inch. I watched your cabinet install video and it helped allot! So THANKS AGAIN! SEE YOU ON THE NEXT VIDEO!!

Nice. Thanks for the upload

Being able to spray makes it so much faster to paint, looks great

You guys videos are so good! The production quality, angles, time-lapses, narration, even the music, and all layered on riveting content. You guys should get a full on TV show!

Very nice. Here in the mid-atlantic and in the northeast smooth finishes are the only finish we accept. I didn't even know of the textured finish until I moved to Texas in the '80s, our house in Ft. Worth back in the late '60s hed a smooth finish as I recall, so texture is new to make it cheaper, and I hate it. Very hard to match texture when repairing drywall. It is so satisfying to put on the paint, you guys must be feeling good! it's also cool to see the give and take with you guys actually reacting and improving based on the comments, love how the KZfaq community can work together so well!

Wow! It's got paint! It's coming together!

So satisfying to get the first coat of Primer on the walls! I still struggle knowing when to jump to that stage. It's amazing how much it hides, and highlights just the right stuff! I would HIGHLY recommend a power sander. As someone who only does drywall a few times a year, it has still been a HUGE game changer for dust control, saving your shoulders, and for feathering all our edges, etc. Definitely a learning curve and an expense, but will never work without one again. Even as our mudding skills progress and we sand less and less, it has still been my favorite tool for drywall finishing!

Awesome work Stud Pack! I love a smooth wall too - great choice!

Those 3 crosses in the windows can represent so many things ❤

I am SO EXCITED for all the finishing details, flooring, trim, that fancy toilet!! I can't wait to see what Jordan picked out for the lights!

One of my favorite KZfaq channels!!! Love it when I see a new post!

Super excited to see the amazing progress yall r making. God bless yall

Regarding the corner with the tear. A friend of mine who is a builder by trade said that any everything in a wooden house is bound to move and set once you move in and start using it. So cracks and tears are bound to occur around trim and in corners. He even went as far as to say that if you can wait don't put up the trim until 6-12 months after you have moved in.

Finally broke down and bought a set of those skimming blades. Have an entire basement of taping and mudding to do, looking forward to trying them!

Waiting to paint the stairwell is a great idea. I do something similar on bathrooms. I always get some thinset on the walls. If it's not painted, it's bad to wipe off because it messes with the mud, but if I've painted it then I'm getting thinset residue on the paint. So I prime and paint one coat, then come back after tile and paint the final coat.

Looking good guys can't wait to see it all done!

Looking good all.

I am in Scotland and even I know that a mosquito should be referred to as a skeeter..... In all seriousness, love the content. Especially how you have helped your kid build and fund their new house The evolution of your content is great Keep it up you skeeter hating texans xxx

Great job, StudPack!

It must be SO satisfying to finally be able to paint the interior! It's hard to imagine how grim things looked at the start, pouring foundation under the rain, you guys have come so far now! Keep up the good work, I don't miss a single video!

I have the same sprayer as you, but I haven’t used it a lot. I find it too difficult to control coating thickness, but back rolling is the answer I needed, so thanks for that. Great progress on the garage!

I moved to SW paint for my current house and I am absolutely blown away by how great it is to paint and how good it coats.

SOOOOOO happy for you guys! GREAT WORK!

Congrats guys! It looks great!! Thank you for taking us along on this adventure with you... Hard to believe that just a short time ago.. you were knee deep in mud trenches!

Perfect base coat. A nice wallpaper on those walls. A cool Colour in the roof 👌🏻

Super satisfying to watch the paint going on the drywall

“Dad loves cleaning buckets.” LOL. 😂🤣

I get so excited when I see a new video. I'm hooked on this project. Love from Silicone valley.

Had a chance to drive past the other day when I was in the area. It looks AMAZING. Everything blends so well with the neighborhood. Love what you guys do.

That’s going to be one white ceiling! Great job ! Everyone!😊

Awesome job boys. it's all coming together well.

When I used to remodel places. Hung and taped and sanded. We used to use a drop light with a 100 watt bulb and hold at an angle to shadow the wall with light. If you sand and can’t see lines it was ready for paint.

Sherwin Williams 7005 (aka Pure White) in their Captivate line… I don’t want to think about how many gallons of this I’ve bought. All of our ceilings and painted millwork are done in this color on our home restoration project.The results have always been amazing for all of their paints.

Paul and the crew are great ❤ I just upgraded my panel from 100amp to 200amp service and had to go through a new transformer and the engineering process ( 2 months) with Consumers Energy here in Essexville, Michigan. It took around a month for my electrical contractor, Escon corp, to get the job scheduled, and it was done in about 5 hours from start to finish, including the inspection from the Township. I was lucky because the new transformer didn't cost anything extra 😊.

I got the Full Circle sander because of you guys a good while back. Haven't actually used it but looking forward to the day I do.

Totally amazing. You men created that building that didn't exist before in the world.

Since watching your channel I’ve borrowed the phrase “dialed in”, love the conciseness of it plus never hear it from anyone else at work.

Glad to see you guys are doing it right! As to Paul’s comment of just putting primer on walls and leaving it, I worked for a company that would just tint the primer, roll it on, and call it a day. I appreciate seeing the Stud Pack’s hard work.

looks awesome can't wait to see the color

it's cool to see the journey, but make sure you keep adding the "how-to" bits. i'd like to know more about your paint setup, how you chose it/details on equipment, any technique you're learning, ppe considerations, etc.

Great stuff, fellas! I’m looking forward to seeing how you’re trimming out the windows and doors!!

You guys are awesome

It looks awsome even with just primer, and emerald is fantastic paint. I love working with it.

Loving it, keep on truckin'. BTW, the scaffolding has paid for itself a hundred times over. Thanks for sharing

Man, this garage is coming together. Good job, Yall!

So glad you’re using PVA sealer. A great and inexpensive way to seal drywall. None of that primer and paint in one crap. All paints prime small patches but not an entire surface and it is also way more expensive than just primer. Been following you guys since early in LA. Keep up the good work and keep pumping out those great videos! 👍🏼

So Much Quicker to spray and then back roll. Looks great.

Awesome work as always, Stud Pack. I'm looking forward to when you guys get to finishing the bathroom.

20:57 second favorite part of the entire video so far. Love the attn to detail as well in all the videos. Good job yall! The dream garage is coming along great!

Looks really great guys. Love the contrasting windows! 🪟

I used the Emerald to paint our our living room / kitchen area and I agree SW top of the line paint is excellent paint. We went with a pale yellow color and six months in and it is holding up great. I always get great customer service and solid advise when in their store.

Damn 🤤🥵 AWESOME job guys!! 😈💪🏽👊🏽🔥

I’ve got my basement all drywalled and I’ve been slacking getting it all mudded and sanded! Y’all are motivating!

Looks so good, fellas!!

Great choice of music during the spray painting. 👍

The place is looking great !

Love the smooth walls!

Wow what a difference!

Man every detail is thought of. This is perfection and I’m here for it! You guys are crushing it, can’t wait to see this come to life with finishes 🏠👍🏼

Looks great

You will never regret using that sherwin William paint, nice work guys!

No one textures walls in the north. It was a surprise to see it when I was visiting friends in the south. Later on I learned it’s because of low quality work to hide things from the home owner. Good to see some quality work in the south!
