headache515 it will be about a 5 for you
Yeah!!!!! give it to em dude!
Easily done…Just hard on your back & knees…Well worth the effort though!
never ever ever top nail prefinished floor
What is the best way to do it on the first couple rows before being able to use the air nailer?
obviously the blind nailer doesnt fit at the end, just use a regular nail gun !
You have to dumbass
You gotta be kidding me.I do this for a living.Has anyone heard of a 16 gauge brad nailer to start and finish a floor.I can understand face nailing the first row because the trim covers the nail holes,but face nailing the second row.you gotta be kidding me
you never face nail the second row
I’d like too see him face nail jotabo or any other exotic wood.
sorry!totally misspelled jatoba.lol
i use 7″ lag bolts for the 1st and 2nd rows…
Awsome Video. Now Im ready to install my hardwood flooring.
make sure you don’t forget lock washers as well.
I really wish I could work with this guy. I live in the UK and goods tradespeople are hard to come by. I you ask questions they usually don’t know anything , its a nightmare.
If you are installing a hardwood floor for the first time, I would look for more info. elsewhere. (I agree with most of these comments. )
“…face nailing the second row(?).you gotta be kidding me…”
yeah, no kidding. I’m not a pro but this guy is putting wayyyyy too many holes on the face. I’m doing about 2500 ft2 in my house and we’re about 75% complete.
Nice work. keep it up. mean time come for social media marketing for esteembpo**com asdsad
Ask around, preferably at a timber merchants, we’re about but it’s just like everywhere, there’s always good and bad. I’ve just moved to france so can’t help you. but good luck
I have installed hardwood flooring before but I glued it down instead of nailing it. I’m about to start a new project and would like to nail it down. I don’t like the idea of face nailing anything but the first row of boards. Isn’t there a better way? Why can’t you just pre-drill holes above the tongue and nail the second row into the floor and joist below?
Pre-drill holes? safety glasses for wood floors? this reminds me of the “Anal Retentive Carpenter” sketch from SNL back in the day. I just face nail with a finish nailer and #18 nails. You can barely see them even BEFORE using wood filler to cover them.
polyurethane
why face nail the first two, when there is a tongue?
the second row you could nail through the tongue, but if you nailed just through the tongue on the first row there wouldn’t be anything to hold the back of the boards down which makes it easier for them to buckle
simple and VERY helpful.
Thank you Lowes.
