WOW! Four hours with a master craftsman giving out his secrets. Incredible. Thank you Mr. Katz!

I happened to be laying out a paneled wall today and came back to refer to this video. Man, what a huge time saver using the calculator the way you demonstrated. Thank you so much Gary, for all the time and effort you've put into teaching, both in your videos and books, both have been a tremendous help to me.

I used the quarter-quarter-Quarter system. He's wonderful.

Thank you, Mr. Katz, for the wonderful tutorial. Recently I watched a YouTube presentation called "Pocket Holes Overexplained, " and the need for drilling pilot holes into the board being joined was posited, especially to avoid cracking woods such as poplar and cherry. I am just preparing to create my first wainscot, so I would like to hear your advice before I begin. The prospect of waisting time and money is frightful. What is your expert opinion, please?

Time to take a continuing education day.

Is wainscoting in multiple rooms too much? I’ve done this is my dining room and I’d like to also have it in my living room to hide imperfections on the walls and tie into a fireplace mantle, but I’m being told it’s too much and would make the house look unappealing. Thoughts?

[Dixie_Normous]

What do you do if you come to a rounded end corner and you want to stop the wainscoting there?

I am up to 20 minutes and all you've done is talk about tools basically. I tuned in to learn about wainscoting. Are you ever going to get to that? I really don't have time for all this. Thanks anyway. 18:51
