" I see you've already started in on this point here we have two by six walls so you've got your extension jambs on correct. And I can't help but notice that you are you plugging them land mines that. For structural integrity I always use. Glue and screws and plugging. OK and on the on the audit a class of house of this style hot flat and everybody does -- a different way when they're trimming out windows that's the first time I've seen that. Which you get your extension jambs on what's what's the next thing you went well I what I do is like -- twelve inch long. Pair of the casings that we're going to be using on the house OK now and I go ahead and mark. I three sixteenths reveal. With a combination square yeah. And I will place them. At the proper plane for the pre marked line that I have here -- an actual window stool is gonna go. -- all I have to do is just line this up where I'm gonna want it to go. And I'll tack it on. And what I will do now is I won't get my outside dimension. Measure. And I've got 42. And three quarters OK I want a three quarter inch reveal on the return of the window stool. So of course twice three quarters an inch and a half -- just kind of an inch and half. Okay -- you got to cut to length with your body bags on it. What's your next procedure -- next step was going to be to find the center of the window stool. At the center of the window and I got -- it was 44. And three eighths what's the way right so the senator. Feet 22. And three sixteenths. Got it so we episode will be marking a center line to the center of the window. From the extension jambs and that is sixteen. And three sixteenths. So with the combination square. Screw and we go ahead and mark our center line. And there'll be a mark here OK that we can have a relation to. What that does is that that would that gives us a three quarter inch overhang to get the past our casing past our casing. We are ready -- not so that stool itself will slip in into the notches of the window. And be able to give us. That debt that we need OK when we market and going into. That gives us. Our width cut right now for our depth cut we can go ahead remove the stool okay. And we want to use. This dimension here which is two inches. So and it's. And I thought to such engage. Two inches you like the combination square I do -- hi I'm -- like precision and I and I and it's gotta be that way with what I do. And use that as the guide. And you flip it over. -- And you'll do the same thing here. And then we go and cut them off."
" And we've got this cut we go ahead and help me take these temporary casings -- he's got a clear shot. -- And it should just affix. Or so. -- OK now what's next we we apply the apron and we're just this piece of wood right here already -- a little -- on offense. Take the first -- question."
" Prior to. I've already cut it to the right way with with the same dimension as the outside casing dimension that I've already pre made my mark. For my center lines so this reveal. On the apron and the casing will become perfectly in line OK and so we're ready to attach this."
" I'm a stickler for structural integrity. -- decision. And equality so I always use a wall adhesives. Too attached. Any moldings. That have to be. We don't want it to go away can a good idea. They -- What I'll do is I'll use wood glue on the very top of it. And that will give me a good glue joint between the stool and the --"
" I don't make it good solid. And it's kind of get it in place. And we give it -- good. Glue rub and eyeball our centers right on now. And we're ready to -- and -- because hand me the nail -- certain that it. Storm."
" Really there. -- to -- to it that it's never come loose enough I always clamp my stool and apron together. After I glue it then we go ahead and check for level. Make sure that. In Guam. As roller -- and it's a little bit. And there we are. So now we're ready for the casings."
" and the reason why I put these. Return talk first father's that if there's any discrepancy -- sandpaper and the glue and sandpaper will mix and hide any cracks or joints and make it super cool for the pain I makes good sense and I could see if it apart if I'm -- that this is going to new Jeep to a I'm stool cap that's correct OK so now I obliterated by the time casing -- that's correct. I've already predetermined what our length is gonna be on this and we're ready to nail that in place and can. No don't thank yes. Now we're ready for -- house. Bob I always glue my joints. -- it -- consider my interior trim like fine furniture work. I can see that can benefit from."
" And I used a few nails here. To start out. Line up my miter. -- fair and we'll do the same to the other side. Then I took a long pipe clamp. Attach it about that ships -- in the center out. Of the molding itself. And I happen down the secret that the good. Tight fit on our joints. And painted -- have you Dennis and I regret that. Just work to casing -- pre marked response. It. Those were breads are shooting and I'll shoot a larger fish killed and fifty engaged okay. And it isn't necessary -- used in many adults. It'll hold itself. Because there's plenty of studding behind. And after the glue dries you remove the clamps. You know she's ready to go nice job."
