I fixed it for you. All you have to do is post the address and a few words. I took the IMG tags out. Thank you for posting a video.

Long time lufker here. It took this rediculous video to lure me out for a first post. What a joke. This guy actually thinks he is helping people by sharing his "expertise". I would think that if he has enough smarts to post this to youtube, he might have enought smarts to simply google how to construct a seam.

I just noticed... all videos belong in the video forum now. All flooring related videos. I moved this one to the correct forum.

hmm...mobilehomerepairs.com should tell you something. If i had no prior flooring knowledge this would have been helpful and beneficial. Of course we all know this will produce horrrendous results that are unacceptable, but this vid was probably targeted to people wanting a quick fix in their trailer house.

That guy is prolific too - there's a bunch of videos by him on YouTube.

I could think of a better thing to call him.

LOL! I have nothing to say.... poor guy thinks he is doing right. Shame really.

Am I the only one who read the video title? It clearly states: "Seem". This is a video that shows you how to seem to seam a carpet

I think his web site is probably his physical address also. Mobile Home Repairs. As soon as he does a job, bang, the mobile home is moved so you can't find him

There is way too much to write a serious critique and it is probably best to commend his effort to be of help (It did take some time, effort and money [someone had to pay for the ruined carpet!] to make the video), but it is also an opportunity to suggest folks actually learn something about what they would offer advice for...
