So many of us single ladies appreciate videos like this to keep us independent and proud of our accomplishments. Thank you so much

Still relevant! Using caulking gun for the first time as new homeowner, thanks so much!

Thank you. It is difficult to find BEGINNER VIDEOS. Great job. I appreciate that you assume the viewer knows nothing about caulking guns, a rarity.

I'm a 71 yo grandma and I learned a lot. I'm going to do inside and outside caulking jobs with what you taught me. Great teacher! Thank you 👍

I am a novice he knows nothing about caulking guns. This is a great video. Now I need to learn how to correctly caulk the tile on my fireplace surround. One step at a time. Thanks so much

I was so lost and frustrated trying to figure out this caulking gun. Your video was super helpful! Thank you!!!

[raeyurek]

It was PERFECT, there are some of us who needed this!

I'm one of those people who didn't know how to use a caulking gun! I figured out how to put the tube in the gun but that's all. I didn't know about the cutter, I didn't know about the plunger, and I hadn't thought about the plug coming back up into the spout on the next use. So keep on producing those DIY videos for 71-year-old women who have never caulked before. I worked in computers my entire life all over the US and the world. NOW I have time to enjoy some DIY projects in my gorgeous TN mountain retirement home! I was trying to install some lovely cork from AMCORK and they sent me the product, their recommended glue, and the glue gun. They also sent super instructions on preparing the cord, the wall, and how and where to apply their glue. BUT they assumed I knew how to use the glue gun! Thanks to you, now I do know how to use it. FINGERS CROSSED.

Third times charm. As a woman, I have never even looked at one of these- until I needed one. Your explanation of all the points and opening was great. Thank you.

43 year old man here and until today I'd never used a caulking gun - found your video and REALLY appreciated the way you described everything. I'm not a smart man but I can follow directions and this helped me not look like a complete idiot - so thank you very much !

[pennysebanc]

Thank you so much for your video. I am a senior lady working on some projects. This video might be very basic for some but it really helped me out. Keep up the good work!

[geremyjohnston]

Great video, you would be surprised at how many of us have never used a caulking gun 😅. So helpful!

[derekzimmer]

You’re right. There are some individuals, like me, that benefited greatly from what many believe is quite simple. Thank you .

[bluemoonalpha]

- THANKS !
My husband‘s busy with other projects and I wanted to caulk a shed that we have and I told him I would do it so he wouldn’t have to. He just gave me a quick rundown how to use it, but I was not confident enough starting so I thought I better find a video before I made a huge mess.
SO HELPFUL!
Thank you !!!

[jymaette]

I knew nothing about caulking or caulking guns. After watching, I'm now confident I know how to buy and use one. Thanks for the simple video for a newbie like myself.

[barbaraschweers]

Excellent.. I’m a 71 yr old woman and I need “Newbie” instructions. This demonstration was perfect!! Thank you so very much!!

[vjohnson]

So glad to find you and especially the tip of releasing the pressure and sealing with duct tape. Great succinct presentation. We old ladies need all the help we can get.

Hi Shannon. There's many people on Youtube teachings these kind of home building lessons. I have learned the most from you and your style of teaching and the attention to detail you always present is great. So, I just wanted to say thank you.

I’m a lady doing a craft project, this was a life saver for me!! Thank you!
