Looks nice and will fool Joe public , but mate what happened to bossing the
lead .To boss you need to move the thickness of lead from were it is to
were you need it or do not want it , rubber mallets are fine for bending
lead ,but not to boss (move) the lead , wooden tools are best . Using heat
is a good thing if the site allows hot works ,but not required on code 5
unless conditions are really cold and then it helps regardsA teacher in
bossing techniques for (many years )to the LCA
Shout me down but I am intending to lead my lean to garage roof with lead,
and I haven't used lead before. I am relying on videos and google threads
so this was very useful. Can I use Code 5 for the roof itself? Although
ideally it would in your book require higher number(7), what is the
downside of using code 5?
Very interesting! We just posted this one in a homemade lead bossing stick
thread on homemadetools.net:

. Jump in anytime if you'd like to chat with other tool guys.
Cheers, you would surprised what a bit of heat can do! We do loads of flat
roofs, so you get used to them. I use heat all the time, working with
code7,8 and sandcast you need it, it makes the really nice to work with
Just wanted to no mate nice bit of lead work by the way I want to get more
in to the lead my self I can weild and do most of it but need to learn the
roll tops so any other videos u can post will be a big help
Having a bit of trouble uploading comments, Refer to my video description
above and youll get my website details as youtube dont allow you type in
links. Ill upload more videos soon mate
Skills tests are an industry assessment of occupational competence taken by apprentices who wish to practice in their relevant craft. They demonstrate that ...
College and union schools are insufficient training for any trade in
construction. On the job is the only way. These college kids especially are
fully trained douches with no skill. I've been private then Union and now
own my own company. These schools are a business. Kids pay, they receive a
useless document. Come apply for a position with me and I will start a
bookworm with a broom push position.
+aokplace Go to school, get training, then go to the job, get experience. No carpenter (who is sane) is going to come out of a 1 year college program and act like a pro on a job site.
i'm trying to think through how i would do the roof rafter. I could use a
bevel t to copy the angle of the corner rafter. its complimentary angle
would be the overhang cut. then measure over however much the overhang is
decided and make a cut however deep the overhang is decided. the cut is
just made 90 deg to the complimentary. now the hard part.. the corner is a
90, and it's bisected equally. from a 2d arial view, that's a 45/45/90. our
triangle shares an edge with the phantom one i just mentioned. rafter
distance from corner times sq rt of 2 is its hypotenuse. tangent of the
beveled angle's compliment is equal to the rafter height(what we're
finding), over the hypotenuse we just found (now a leg). because of the
45/45/90, we now have the legs of a right triangle. just use pythagorean
theorem to find the distance from your notch to where you start drawing
your bevel T angle. the edge angle of our rafter would be found with the
opposite tangent of the rafter to corner length over the hypotenuse we just
found with pyth theorem. i do some carpentry, but never had a class or a
teacher. my dad was a math teacher though, so that's in my blood. i usually
make small woodworking stuff, so holding the wood and scribing on scrap is
how i would usually do this sort of thing.
+youllregretit on second thought, you could just notch it, hold it flush at a higher point, scribe the two lines that define the plane for sawing, and measure with their square held to their tape. just a cut more when scribing the edge, but pretty simple. it's just not as exact.
+Nuckelhedd Jones The jig they are using is welded out of square and the grounds are bowed in or out or both depending on which frame you get allocated. I teach C and J to apprentices as well as run and set out large construction projects. I suppose you were one of those chippies that new it all from day one Nuckelhedd Jones, the kind that gets right on the older guys tits and as a result of the backlash of that you now take it out on the youngsters! Attack is the best form of defense they say! So what you hiding? Give the youngsters a chance and help not hinder them! Only thing I agree about with any of the posts is the lacing of the boots but I feel this wasn't an accurate representation of the stringent Health and safety reg's in the UK, merely an illustration of the youth of today for the light hearted production it was! PPE all the way and H & S! We're not in the dark ages anymore!
+youllregretit No they didn't The jig they are using is welded square and the lumber they attached before the test is square. All these shits had to do was put some shims in to an already perfectly square opening frame. That isn't what you will find on a home that is being built with lumber that isn't hand chosen and perfect. Its a whole other ball game trying to put a square and level finished frame into an out of square and out of level (usually both ways) rough frame. It's the same with the base molding. And I would have sent that kid home if he showed up wearing shoes like that and didn't even have them tied , i\like in the video. He would have a nail in his foot in no time and would be twisting an ankle with those loose as hell sneakers.
+Classic Work but they made the frame square in a different part of the exam. true, typically you're not going to take out the whole frame/jamb to adjust it to square. but yeah, they could make a skewed frame for the test, make them hang the door, scribe the frame, then go 2 mm in.
