Sources for Blog


For this blog I will be sourcing my knowledge from the website "This Old House" and my myself. TOH is a very reliable source and that they have story's on everything under the sun. Besides have a great website, the quickest way for me to understand how to learn something is threw video or demonstration and TOH has a wonderful YouTube channel that parallels the website in there story. In the videos the people in the photo below are the hosts and they all have different trades. From the left is the landscaper, then one over is the master plumber, one over is the general contractor, next over is the host of the show and always to the right is the master carpenter.  They all do different segments on the show and they are all very respectable in there trades.

                        I also use the you the house improvements YouTube channel to learn more basic general construction.  The host is a general contractor in Canada and he is knowledgeable for many constructions topics like rough carpentry, drywall, electrical, building and many other topic. I used his video series to build a 8" by 12" shed on my property. If you have any simple and general DIY projects he probably has a video on the topic. He makes it very capable to learn from his videos and I highly recommend him.

My plan is to have a collection of story's and videos that teach a wide range of skills on lots of different topics of construction. There are a few projects that I have in mind but I will also be playing it by year because the is always things being broke in my house and I am the fix it man. So I will be taking you on the adventure and hopefully it will be interesting. Like I said be for I learn from seeing/ watching, so most of the post will have accompanying vlogs to make the story more in depth.

*Please attempt any DIY project with your own discretion
