  • I subscribed just because your daughter was so cute. I did like the way you covered that beam.
  • Exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the video and tips!

    We are getting ready to do some faux beams. Thanks for the simple video with your personal tips!

    Good stuff. I would: Use a select/premium grade of pine. Use a sanding sealer before stain. Glossy? That's not natural for a wood beam. I'd go with flat, satin at the very most.

    Very nice job. I am getting ready to install faux beams in our current house, and I love the mitered construction. Thanks for the post!
  • @Lutzboater
    Really like the look of the beams. Your attention to detail paid off with the beams looking and fitting perfectly. Your foreman at the end is a hoot; pretty little lady.
  • @Claysearsy
    Very nice..takes that room to another level!

    One trick I’ve seen that looks like it works fantastic is to use fiberglass reinforced filament strapping tape on the outside of the seams. Lay the three pieces of wood with the miters facing down and apply the tape lengthwise over the entire seam. Flip it over, apply your glue and fold the sides up to form the beam and tack in place with brads or staples. The tape not only keeps the edges perfectly aligned, but it also keeps the glue contained on the inside for less clean-up. It’s pretty slick. I plan to try it soon when I wrap some columns on my patio in cedar.

    What a great video, and very cute kiddo! Thank you!
  • Thanks for the tips. I am about to do this for a 24’ span with a single post in the middle. Trying to figure out how to do the section where it meets the single post.
  • What type of wood did you use? Thinking of possibly doing this for a soffit in a kitchen. Were knocking down a wall but the soffit in each room is different sizes.

    Have you seen H beams? We do it alot. It's a preference thing. With miters, the grain will never match the piece on the other side, so it will never look like one solid piece to a trained professional.
