How To Install A Ceiling Fan!

Hey, My name is Tom. I don't know about you but I find myself wanting to DO everything myself. I consider myself a Jack Of All Trades. Master of none. What you'll find here will be anything from building or fixing cars or trucks, building or remodeling projects and everything in between. I get myself into some pretty interesting situations.

I'd love it if you subscribed so we can stay in touch... You might even learn something. I know I will!

Thank you for watching!!

I taught school for 33 years. You are gifted with know how skills, but I think that these videos truly show your gift as a teacher. I am sure your kids like learning from you. This is a great idea!

This series needs to be more than just 2-3 weeks. We could learn much from you! Please consider continuing this and teach us to do whatever projects you happen to be working on that day.😊 We can all flip houses together.

Thank you so much for creating this series Tom! We learn more quickly when we are shown how to do a task!! Don't tell Dawn, but I love you!! (Don't worry Dawn, I'm old enough to be your mother!! I just appreciate you two so much!) :D

Thank you Tom for taking the time to teach us these basic DIY things. I know it takes 2, 3, 4 times longer to film and edit. Not to mention moving the camera around.

My mom always put pins in her mouth like that while sewing. To this day, I still do it. Thanks for the Mom Memory. ☺️

I have a ceiling fan and light that I bought 15 years ago to replace a really old outdated one. I got frightened about doing it, although I thought I should be able to do it. Now I am confident I can!😊

Questions for this video: what does “grounding” mean for electrical work?
What is the best way to balance ceiling fan blades (our are off balance somehow and make noise if we put it on speed 2 or higher). I think there are weights involved?
Questions in general:
How to change drill bits/reverse direction, use drill confidently
How to install a missing tile on bathroom wall
Compliments:
Love the intro, love the screws in the mouth tip, appreciate the close-up shots, and love the series in general.
From my perspective, don’t worry too much about having to set down the camera sometimes. It’s a casual tutorial and I’d rather you produce content in a real-life way, rather than produce less content because you feel like you have to set up a whole other camera/ladder/lighting, etc. Whatever you want to do, of course but only go through that extra effort if it’s ultimately easier for you—not necessary for me as a viewer.

I’m a home economist, when in college, we were told if we put pins in our mouth, it was an automatic F! Just sayin’….. moving on, my dad was a commercial decorator, he would take a box of brads, dump some in his mouth and keep on working with his hammer that was magnetic on one side….. So as far as the screws in your mouth are concerned, just don’t swallow them! :)…..
great video. When I had a house, I hired a handyman to replace a ceiling fan, it never worked right. The light switch never controlled anything anymore. I would have to walk into the dark room, grope for the hanging chain to turn the light or fan on. Kudos to you, even though I don’t still have that house, I think I could have done a better job! …..at least after watching this video. I can’t wait for what you do tomorrow.

Tom, I love this series! So much great info! Thank you for taking the time to do this for us! ❤🙏Jane in SC

Wow it has been a really long time since I replaced a ceiling fan. They have come a long way with how to do it. But then you also made it look easy. Thanks for making us feel like we can do this too

[carrie]

Super excited that I can now install my ceiling fan with confidence! It has been literally years, if not more than a decade, that I have had a ceiling fan in a box, waiting to be installed. I was told I needed a bracket installed inside the ceiling and now I can see that the bracket can be installed on the outside. 🤦‍♀️
I hope I have that right. 😊

[kelseyd]

NO WAY! I haven't even WATCHED this video yet and you read my mind!!! We are literally getting a ceiling fan for one of our rooms this weekend! And now here's my how-to. 👏😄 Tom, you rock!!!

[chrisludwig]

Thanks for making this look achievable for us not as mechanically inclined. Love your channel. Keep up the good work.
