oh great the movers are here i have a bunch of bare floors no time i underestimated this it's taking way too much time to do this this is not the easiest laminate form to install the longer it is the harder [Music] here at mr build it we take safety very important even when we sweep we got to make sure we're wearing a ppe sweeping is a dangerous job so a good proper technique when it comes to sweeping so you don't get hurt is you want to get your feet shoulder-width apart okay you want to activate your core get your hands at about two and i don't know five o'clock right here what you want to do is lean activate the glute miss maximus follow through that's the most important and then squeeze your lats follow through and squeeze you don't want to be leading with your chin right you want to lead with your pelvis activate those glutes look at that look at that technique so it's safe to say i uh i could install the flooring before the movers came i noticed i don't know where things are i've already tried to find some stuff and was not successful i had to lay one pad literally for them to put stuff on i don't this is gonna be quite the adventure i should have taken i need to take some blood pressure medication this is getting out of control i don't know this is not fast enough those damn floors sorry it's all my fault it's not your fault everything's stressing me out not just the garage i can't work i can't move beer doesn't even help anymore i cleaned it and it looks amazing and that's the funny thing is like this looks like a decent kitchen and i have to rip this out next month sorry i need a vacation sorry [Music] oh look at this cute little patch everywhere we're gonna make sure we have sufficient underlayment even the cute little ones there you go little buddy you have two different sides you gotta kind of notch in so i try and start with the shorter end and then kind of just get it in tight as tight as i can and then come down here and get my far corner then so i really only have this wedge to get in here that edge that actually if this was a full plank it would fit right in so you're not damaging any of the pieces that you need to have slip in next and then just kind of and kind of you can tell it's kind of raised still so i kind of put gentle pressure with my foot and then just kind of get it to all right so tyler showed you guys how the stuff locks in um here's the pattern that you want to stick to or at least i stick to i go with a one-third two-third…
