[0:01]hey everyone so welcome to my first
[0:04]edited video this is how it will start
[0:06]sorry for the
[0:08]shakiness I don't mind telling you I
[0:10]feel very intimidated right now um
[0:13]obviously that's my mic right there I'm
[0:16]just kind of keeping out of the way I
[0:17]need to learn more about it to figure
[0:19]out like can I clip it to my pants and
[0:21]still have good
[0:24]audio every time I look in
[0:27]here I just feel a little more
[0:30]intimidated I have never done anything
[0:32]like this in my life but I'm going to do
[0:34]the best that I can it's all I can
[0:37]do and if you're like me maybe you'll
[0:40]want to watch this video just to see how
[0:43]you'll feel the first time you do it
[0:46]we'll see how it turns out in the end
[0:48]right um so let me just show you kind of
[0:52]what I have planned
[0:55]here oh actually hold on the mic well
[0:58]I'm using a mic well
[1:00]whatever so that's the
[1:03]reflecti I'll explain what I'm going to
[1:05]do with that this goes around pipes and
[1:08]stuff but it's pretty thick I don't
[1:10]think I'm going to be able to use it
[1:12]this is reflecti tape I've got gloves
[1:16]because of this the pink instulation
[1:18]going to try to use
[1:20]R30 the only reason jat GPT said not to
[1:24]use
[1:25]it was that it's thicker and a little
[1:29]bit heavier but it didn't feel heavier
[1:30]to
[1:31]me you know so and it didn't even really
[1:35]look thicker to me I guess we'll find
[1:37]out when I open it up if it's too thick
[1:40]then I do have another roll of this
[1:43]that's
[1:44]r19 so here's what we've got this is
[1:47]what we're working with these three
[1:48]panels here in the
[1:51]kitchen and if you look
[1:55]inside the wall you can see that it will
[1:59]be an absolute challenge to get our
[2:00]board back there and it would be a
[2:02]challenge to even
[2:04]get um that reflecti back
[2:08]there
[2:11]so this stuff feels super super um
[2:15]cheap I wanted to wrap it I don't see
[2:18]how I
[2:20]can uh I kind of want to replace it but
[2:24]I I don't trust my skills enough
[2:27]yet this has that's obviously water um
[2:32]you can even see the red one there so
[2:33]that must be
[2:35]hot um you know you might have to turn
[2:38]these off sometimes so you got to be
[2:40]careful what you do in the front
[2:42]here this thing over here has little
[2:45]vents on it so you have to avoid those
[2:48]they obviously need room for
[2:50]ventilation they're also on top so I've
[2:54]got to deal with
[2:55]that um there's a very long
[3:00]um you know there's a just a long area
[3:03]back there I can reach it in the
[3:05]bathroom through a heater vent that
[3:08]looks like this and that's basically it
[3:10]I can stick my arm in there and pray
[3:12]there's nothing back there that wants to
[3:13]eat
[3:15]it so my plans are kind of out the
[3:19]window what I'm going to do is mostly
[3:23]just insulate it with pink
[3:25]insulation cuz I don't know what else I
[3:27]can really do like this is a drawer so I
[3:29]have to
[3:30]think I have to you know pretty much I
[3:32]don't even know how deep I can make it
[3:35]like
[3:36]I've I don't know I just have to just
[3:38]try I just have to try I really wanted
[3:42]to put reflectiv against that wall but
[3:44]there's so many wires
[3:47]there I don't know how to do it like I
[3:50]just don't
[3:51]know I'm going to try my best guys just
[3:55]I'm going to just try my
[3:57]best this I think is a water heater
[4:01]maybe guys please tell me cuz I don't
[4:03]know it is wrapped you know in this kind
[4:06]of
[4:07]insulation um if it were easier I might
[4:11]try to wrap that in
[4:12]reflecting I think this black pipe is
[4:15]probably the gas that's
[4:17]propane so you know I'll avoid that I'm
[4:21]just there's only so much I can do I
[4:24]think mainly I can only just put pink
[4:27]instulation in here and then what I'll
[4:31]do is I'll take these small boards here
[4:34]that you know that go on here and on the
[4:37]back sides I'll put reflecti just you
[4:40]know I'll just you know there'll be like
[4:42]a half inch where there's nothing and
[4:45]then the rest will be reflected CU I
[4:48]mean any little bit's going to help I
[4:53]assume so that's where we are I
[4:57]just I guess I shouldn't get too down
[5:00]about it I'm I'm doing something right
[5:02]I'm I'm trying and as my skills get
[5:06]better I can come back down here and do
[5:09]it again if I have to so I'm going to
[5:11]leave it there for now and just get
[5:13]started and I'll show you what it looks
[5:14]like when I'm
[5:16]done hey guys so I've got some progress
[5:19]to
[5:20]share first I want to tell
[5:23]you it's okay to have fears it's okay to
[5:28]have have do
[5:30]self-doubts it's not okay to let those
[5:34]fears or self-doubts stop you from doing
[5:37]something I promise you if you just push
[5:40]yourself through that fear more times
[5:42]than not you are
[5:44]going to surprise yourself it was like
[5:47]that in programming with me all the time
[5:49]like I constantly surprise myself it
[5:53]is amazing what we can do if we just try
[5:57]I am super proud of myself right now let
[5:59]let me show you what I've
[6:01]done so I've only got these two right
[6:05]now so this one you know goes up to the
[6:09]back wall I went around the wires you
[6:12]know I packed it but not tight I know
[6:15]you're not supposed to do it tightly but
[6:17]just you know to form it around stuff
[6:19]I'm going to try to put the um the
[6:24]silver stuff the
[6:27]reflecti like you know
[6:30]like just make a wall with that in each
[6:33]of these spots and then maybe like a you
[6:36]know let's just call it a floor right
[6:37]there and then put the cabinet in and
[6:40]see if everything
[6:41]works um you know that way the
[6:45]insulation is out of the way it's not
[6:48]going anywhere it's formed now this you
[6:51]know I did it I feel like I insulate
[6:54]this real well you know you have access
[6:56]to your two
[6:57]water um whatever those things are
[7:00]called and I mean that's all you need if
[7:03]you need to go in there to fix something
[7:05]you can this is just little clumps of
[7:08]insulation it's not that you know it's
[7:10]not it's not in the
[7:11]way um and then I will end it by doing
[7:14]what I said putting reflecti on you know
[7:17]the ends
[7:18]here well not that one but you know
[7:20]where there's boards what I haven't done
[7:22]is come over here I'm not sure what to
[7:24]do
[7:26]with those vents being there I have to
[7:29]Fig figure out a way to be very safe
[7:32]about this um even over even over here
[7:37]like I just I can't cuz there are rents
[7:41]on the other side of that I can't go
[7:43]over here though from you know do this
[7:45]side and then and from in the
[7:47]bathroom and I think that's a real good
[7:50]start I'm so proud of myself I did
[7:54]this I just got started and it just kind
[7:57]of fell into place
[8:00]just don't give up on yourself guys if
[8:03]you have a
[8:04]dream I just hope you keep working
[8:07]towards it I'm sorry I'm a little
[8:08]distracted now because I'm not sure my
[8:11]mic is working it's got another screen
[8:13]on um I guess we'll find out in a minute
[8:17]I'm still learning about this stuff
[8:19]everything I'm doing it feels like since
[8:21]I made this decision is all new and I
[8:24]just keep having to push myself through
[8:27]through uncertainty through fear through
[8:29]just so many emotions
[8:32]but I I hope it inspires you because
[8:35]that's the whole point of
[8:36]this hey everyone I am super psyched
[8:40]about this I'm just going to show you
[8:43]right
[8:46]now so this is what I did all by
[8:51]myself and I think I did a really pretty
[8:54]good job I mean don't don't get me wrong
[8:56]it it's not
[8:57]perfect it's pretty close
[9:00]wondering if I should do the top too you
[9:04]know um probably not cuz this one has a
[9:07]cabinet
[9:08]drawer but wow just amazing it's going
[9:12]I'm going to put the door in now that's
[9:14]going to be hard to do with this camera
[9:16]so I'm just going to pause
[9:17]it I'm happy to say it's working it's
[9:21]not well like there's nothing
[9:22]obstructing it so that's not the problem
[9:25]it's just these two it seems like
[9:27]they're a little bit wider than they
[9:28]should be for the drawer it was real
[9:30]hard to put
[9:32]in if I pull it out too far it's going
[9:35]to come
[9:36]undone um I can have my dad look at
[9:39]that cuz this is a little bit outside
[9:41]like I don't think I I'm not going to
[9:44]figure that out but it's working and
[9:47]it's insulated looks
[9:50]great so man I'm so
[9:53]excited
[9:55]man guys you can do this I think I'm GNA
[9:58]just assemble these videos together and
[10:01]put them up you know I'm going to keep
[10:03]working on this
[10:05]and I'll take some video after but I'll
[10:08]probably just um I'll include that in a
[10:10]video on some other day just I I want
[10:12]you guys to see it I'm so proud of
[10:14]myself have a good weekend
