Welcome back to bordo life everyone uh thank you all so much for your comments um on the last Vlog in today’s episode I learn a valuable lesson but does it set me back lots of money and a few days let’s See Louie We come on sa Mery did you stay the night to make sure that the uh squatters didn’t come in they didn’t come I was there yeah in a 10 they are scared of me oh wow that’s really good uh so so Louie has popped all the

Insulation on phonic insulation on top of the beams we come back back to that in a minute though Louie are you ready to get a load of parket down today ready for it waiting for that good how far do you think we’ll get I don’t know if we do Al

Yeah all the the big space today it’s good I don’t know I never did it without further Ado let’s get onto this park now I keep thinking that you know I might have forgotten something I mean I have laid 7800 M squared of this park and I

Just can’t think what it is anyway let’s just get on with laying the parket do a bit of a time lapse we’ll have a chat in a bit but let me show you first how this how we lay it here so this is my trusty nail gun that I

Use I know I’m going to get a million comments saying I should be using pneumatic because it’s less hassle when I bought this this was the only one proposed to me and I quite like it so okay yeah it probably is quicker doing with the pneumatic gun um

But this is a really good system if you look at the profile can you get the profile there can you see it yeah so the profile it’s kind of uh Barbed so these nails are Barbed and as they gets towards the top of the nail they get wider so when

You whack these nails in with this machine they go in and they just do not come out old parade kind of methods would just be using normal nails and of course you a lot of creaking this stops a lot of the creaking so let’s get going Lou have you

Got a knife yes I can see it don’t hold out on me okay so up up the manufacturer is sending me all different lengths so we have to kind of keep mixing in and that we really do not want on a line it’s like this uh we don’t want the line

Before to arrive at the same place for a couple of reasons first of all it’s ugly when you get lines lining up like that and second of all you lose strength so we’re going to aim for anywhere from about here connection to right in the center

Yeah are you taking notes Lou yes I I’m taking NS Prof okay so oh let’s get a couple over here and we’re going to get going oh I got you to get another board didn’t I so we can work off it soon enough we’ll be able to be working off the park

Though but if we’re going on Park we don’t have Mucky feet do we Lou I you didn’t understand Mucky feet so muddy feet oh yeah okay so some of you guys were looking out before saying you saw my boxes no it’s my blue shirt but I think

That time we might have seen a little bit more than boxes thanks Lou nice we say it in English the same the plumber the Builder buom Okay um so I don’t like hitting the uh tongue with the kind of tongue is the mail bit comes

Off there is one we use already used I we a bit I don’t know uh you know what it’s a small one we’ll just use oh here we are yes we might have been hitting that one a little bit perfect that’s my uh my one

That I used to get it in place let’s get going leaving a gap all the time so that’s how they go in but you generally do a few at a time don’t just got that one in it was being a bit awkward just wanted to say the wood has

Been here a few days now we got that first line in straight away but you best leaving the wood a good two three days to acclimatize to the room the humidity the temperature everything so we did leave it a few days and uh it’s it’s

Ready to go so we’re going to roll a time lapse Oh well I don’t know whether you could see on the time lapse but it took us a little bit to get into the Rhythm didn’t it Louie yes but we did quite good I think yeah we got there now it’s starting to go down really well um I wanted to show you all

This so what were my words Louie uh this way around and up top it’s thick down below it’s thin well every once in a while the Saw Mill send you something that puts you off and I was like putting it in trying to get it right and it just

Wouldn’t get right they milled it the wrong way around so the thin bit at the top and the thick bit underneath there you go so yeah it’s lunch time now um we’re going to stop we’re going to carry on after lunch with another time lapse

Lou’s got to go get some stuff some more Park so that it kind of adjust to the temperature and humidity here for in a few days time and I’m just going to carry on on my own on time lapse and uh and yeah I I I just can’t I keep

Thinking that I’m forgetting something I haven’t got a clue what it is but it’ll come to me it will come to me don’t Worry Oh He Back to work that’s strange I’m not hearing head head up way what are you doing I’m not hearing names going on oh taking a nap no I’m struggling with my back to be honest Louie oh I’m not as young as I used to be yes I managed to get a few few rows

Done whilst you’re away then I had problems with the gun I don’t know whether they saw on the the time lapse but it’s it’s not returning as it should do and then I stood up and I was in ache not pain aches with my back so I just

Have a quick lie down to deal with my back I don’t think we’re going to get a huge amount more done today we’re just going to take it nice and slow every day otherwise my back’s going to give out on me no worries so you bought some more Parky

For to so he gets a climatized before we uh yes yes yes uh 13d could you one third another third okay another third yeah I know now remember what I was going to talk about um and what I was forgetting and uh yeah I was it could have been

Extremely expensive time wasted and going backwards basically I’m going to address some of the people that asked in the comments why I was laying Park okay this way I’m not replying to the people that were quite rude and that um just said basically you’re doing it

Wrong um so the for the people that asked about why I’m doing it this way why there is no kind of OSB underneath the parket well here’s your answer so as I just touched on earlier on in the Vlog I have laid 700 M squared of this parket

And I think the first time was in 2011 I think I spoke to the guy who actually produces this so it’s the kind of Mill that kind of cuts the wood and produces it he advised me to buy this machine here I’m not sponsored by them but it’s

Called porter nail we’ll come back to that in a sec but basically he said buy that machine and you just nail the Parkade down on to the boards onto the um onto the the joist and uh I got on with it and then yesterday uh sorry couple of days ago

The Vlog um I started laying one one row and I got jumped on by a lot of people saying you’re not doing it right well I hate to disagree but I am doing it right and um I actually called the manufacturer up so this isn’t just some salesman these guys are making

The parket and I called him up and I said you know what’s going on why have I got all these people telling me I should have OSB underneath I thought this was you know good on its own and I said I’m 90% sure it is good on its own can you

Explain why it’s good on its own without aosb so I can tell everybody that are asking like I say those people that were rude can just listen or not if they want and basically said this parket is s of such good quality and it is so thick

That it does not need OSB underneath um a lot of you guys in possibly the States Australia wherever even in the UK I think some people were saying a lot of you are probably laying a lot thinner um parket this is 23 mm I’m sorry I don’t have it in inches but it’s

Really thick for parket or floorboard and uh yeah he actually quoted me a norm if you’re really interested in it and you want to look up it a little bit more on the Internet it’s Norm 51.0 so it’s a uh sorry 51.1 and it’s a French Norm about parket and it’s about

The width of the beams and the thickness of the parket and it states that 21 mm upwards you can lay without any OSB on that note he did laugh at me and to be honest I didn’t think about it myself but um this insulation here is absolutely useless phonic insulation

Because are these little puppies here so they obviously are going through the park now in the states back in the what was it the the 1900s when the trains were coming and there was the Indians that were looking out for uh the white folk on the

Train or or whatever it was you know whoever was looking for people coming on a train they used to put their ear down onto the metal because the metal transferred the sound a lot more than obviously the air and so you’d hear the um the train coming from a like miles

Off by the metal and he said it’s the same principle when you nail through through the phonic insulation then you uh you have the same problem and so you don’t um you don’t actually gain anything by putting the phonic insulation down there you go I’m so happy to put it during

Hours we’ll keep doing it but um yeah it might be some kind of help but we are going to insulate hugely underneath and we’re going to plaster board underneath and I’ve done this before I’ve never heard anything from people running about upstairs or and and don’t forget it is

Upstairs it’s bedrooms it’s not high heels and and hard shoes tapping on the floor normally it’s it’s feet so I’m happy with how that is I hope that’s cleared it up for a lot of you there is one rather ironic thing this gun this kind of nail poter nail kind of

Gun it is actually produced by the Canadians and a lot of Canadians were saying why have you not put your USB down um so basically this is actually a a a machine that is uh for doing Park like this and so it it isn’t unheard of and it’s been

Used for a good uh say two 300 years nailing par down as it is I’m happy with how it’s going to look I’m happy with how it’s going to sound and if you got a problem with that you got a problem with that I I can’t deal with that I don’t

Like the OSB and I understand that those are the Norms or the the kind of the way to build in the States but that’s your prerogative so there we go hope You’ enjoy today’s Vlog if you have please give us a thumbs up ring that Bell And
