Did you know the Canadian government will pay you $8500 for successfully completing the carpentry journeyman red seal program? Furthermore, while you’re sitting in class you are able to collect employment insurance. You literally make money while gaining the knowledge to make you more valuable at your job. There are similar incentives for other skilled trades as well (of course conditions apply but look into it) #nobrainer #gototradeschool #tradeschool #canada • . . . . . #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #educateyourself #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #framersofig #apprentice #redseal #redsealcarpenter #governmentgrants #redsealjourney #journeyman (at At School) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt2TwNagnt_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12ut90har54yj

Simple Tip Sunday! Brought to you by MasterCrap (not a sponsor, just what was in the garage). • Knowing how to use your speed square efficiently is the whole point of carrying one. There are plenty of “tricks” that these little guys can do. And none of them are taught in carpentry school (you’re supposed to use a framing square for everything). These techniques you will learn in the field from a seasoned guy or in a sink-or-swim moment. #simpletipsunday #tricksofthetrade #theydontteachthatinschool #speedsquare • . . . . #mastercrap #tools #handtools #toolsofthetrade #learnsomething #redsealcarpenter #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #framersareadyingbreed #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #byronbuilds (at Chilliwack, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnP54T0gW_x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6g3y374by1zm

#tbt... getting to try building curved stairs while in school. It’s on my framing bucket list, the stairs not the balustrade. If I remember correctly we only had 6 hours of shop time to complete the project. #realframinghascurves #stairs #curvedstaircase #redsealcarpenter • . . . . . #bucketlist #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #framersareadyingbreed #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #framersofig #roughframing #tradeschool #school (at UFV Trades & Technology) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUgZAFg1Nn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ksu2kxikwize

I’m calling it, my first cut & stack roof! Yeah it’s small and I made some mistakes but I applied skills that trade school had taught me in theory. • Thanks to guys like @canadiancarpenter and @markhenrichson for posting tips about hand cut roofs! #redsealcarpenter #byronbuilds #handcutroof #cutandstack • . . . . #carpenter #carpentry #woodworking #woodworker #woodwork #framer #framing #framersareadyingbreed #buildersofinsta #bluecollar #construction #framersofig #roughframing (at Langley, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnrTYzclRv4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h039nv0j3if9

Have faux track saw, will travel. Client needed a couple of doors undercut. My @tasktools / @makitatools mash-up was exactly what these doors needs. #tracksaw #toolhack #oldschool • $700 tracksaw just wasn’t in the budget for today’s projects. The $60 level, $170 circular saw, & $24 in clamps are all you need to make a straight cut, just like one of them fancy track saws. #howto #diy #onedayiwillownatracksaw . . . . #undercut #happyclient #itwasmyinlaws #doors #carpentey #carpenter #sidework #redsealcarpenter #journeyman #latenight #interior #finecarpentry #finishcarpentey #toolsofthetrade (at Chilliwack, British Columbia)

I’m seeing a pattern here. I’m not big on brand-loyalty, I go for the tools that perform the way I need them to. @makitatools has swept this round of tool purchases. #makita #brandloyalty #teamteal #alittledewaltintheretoo • . . . . #tooladdict #addiction #thestuggle #spendmoneytomakemoney #moneymaker #moneymakers #teal #getyourown #handsoff #ilikecases #carpenter #carpentry #chippy #handyman #redsealcarpenter #havetoolswillusethem #imatool

Spent time doing something a little different today. Moved some feed bins around on the boss’s farm. #carpenterswearmanyhats #boomlift #jcb • . . . . #farm #farmlife #feedbin #operator #notwoodworking #job #whenworkisfun #itsajob #thisiswhatido #redsealcarpenter #bluecollar #construction #machinery (at Chilliwack, British Columbia)
