Framing Exterior Wall Corners - Requested SketchUp Video

A viewer request a video showing how exterior wall corners are framed. There are a few different ways to do this but I show the most common method which makes for a strong corner and also dead wood for nailing interior wall surfaces in the corner.

Places you can find me!

Extremly helpful. I am brand new to framing and this helped clarify questions. Thank you for taking the time to walkthrough this. Stay blessed.

I am part of a Habitat build team. I was looking for ways to maximize our time when we have volunteers on build day. Your video was helpful to me. It appears with a good set of plans, we can pre-cut most components prior to build day. So actual building is occurring while we have the men and women there to work. Thank you for providing this easy to understand information. Great Job!!!

Probably one of the best videos explaining not just the how, but why. Great tutorial

I appreciate the detailed description of the framing process you provided in this video. Thanks so much for sharing.

Just gained more knowledge from your inner dialogue and ramblings than I have from 3 other videos combined! I love that you're talking us through your sketch up plans and mistakes, these are all things I can absolutely envision myself doing out in the field. Glad I know better now, thank you!

This was EXCELLENT. from an electrician who knows nothing about carpentry. I wondered myself how the walls were tied in together. And no this vid wasn't long. Great work✊

Outstanding- made understanding how corners are put together crystal clear.

Super job. Thank you for pointing out all of the mistakes I would have made. Understanding the corners and backsetting for the sheeting would have cost me valuable time and resources on the project. Now I have to watch so many more of your videos. Good Journey Richie

This was exactly the video I was looking for. Thank you for making it.

Hi Tony! I'm an Irish man looking to build in France in Timber Frame! Your videos are so helpful! Am going on some courses soon but thanks to you I think I stand a chance! I tend to see things in my head clearly but wonder how i'm gonna get it done! Even though you're doin' this stuff on Sketch up... it now makes perfect sense and answers simple questions like "How do the corners butt up together?" Thanks 4 the time you share online! Kind regards, Aodan

ok, that was impressive, I tried to use SketchUp years ago... you obviously did not give up and it shows. thanx for posting

[AdrianRomeroJr]

this was very informative for somebody wanting to learn how to frame to possibly take a shot at it on an Owner built ADU, thanks a lot Tony for taking the time and sharing your knowledge

I use Revit and am learning the basics of framing. One of the best, most informative videos I've seen, and it helps tremendously and is so efficient to watch you do it in Sketchup ... really helped me to quickly see and understand the details of how things are laid out. Look forward to checking out your other videos. Appreciate it!

No worries and ignore the trolls they have no life and it's very sad for them. Don't let them stop you from putting out good information. I learn a lot on you tube and appreciate your effort.

A very informative tutorial. So well explained and easy to follow. Well done! Am following in from Papua New Guinea.
