Installing Problem-free Pre-hung Doors

This guy is good. He taught me some stuff I didn't know...particularly, how to work out "crossleg" problems, since my walls are all out of plane from one edge of my doors to the other edge.

Probably nobody cares about stuff like this, but I didn't know what else to post today.

There will be a quiz later.

Eighteen minute video...if you're bored.

It's measure twice, cut once, and if you cut it too short, keep cutting it until it is long enough!

I know it's measure twice, cut once but I love harassing you, Lucky!


If you ever get bored, watch Sow the Land YouTube channel. I like to watch these type of videos before going to bed. Not really my style but it's an improvement on what they had on a budget.
