So now we figured out the height of this door, a gap above it and gap below it. Threshold, which is we still gotta cut that to fit threshold height. The jam up here, and it's a room for shimming and such. And we've made a mark right here. We've already determined where the side of the doors and we're going to cover up beside those two bys that we knocked over and then we'll shim those to fit with.

They have plenty of room. Now, although not surgery, like a doctor with a great big exam lights and all that, we're going to use a sawzall although with a little bit wise, we won't be so violent. I got to actually cut through tin on the other side. I'm going to graduate and then go through the tin and cut all the way down, cut all the way across.

I took a power bit and drilled some areas where I could start without having to work so hard at it, but I could have done it without. And here I go, making a bunch of noise and hurting my hearing. So eventually the world will be very quiet to me

Whoo actually, you should use your protection.

I'm just making fun of myself. Self-deprecation is just one of my skills, so. You haven't cut the bottom yet. Yeah. We had to go outside and cut snips. The tin that’s, they put some old tin on here is one of the reasons I had a hard time cutting through is not only did they put plywood here, they put one bys to fasten the tin to and I don't know why they did that maybe it to make it easier for the heat to dissipate bugs to get from one side of the building to the other highway superhighway.

Anyway, we're going to go out there and cut that. Take this all the way down, cut this two by here, and then remeasure and make sure and then we'll put in a header. We'll take you along with us.
