    Closing Out the MEGA Build Series… But Not the Punch List | Let Jaime Talk Podcast #43

    After 127 YouTube videos of sawdust, steel, sweat, and seriously long days, the MEGA Modern Build series on the Perkins Builder Brothers channel has officially hit the finish line… at least on the Perkins Builder Brothers channel. In this episode of Let Jaime Talk, Jaime reflects on what it means to wrap up such a massive project, what went into filming that final episode (Pt.127), and why the job isn’t quite over just yet. Because let’s be real — just because the videos are done, doesn’t mean every last detail is. 🎙️ Inside this episode: 🏗️ What made Part 127 the “final” one — and how it feels to finish 🪚 What still needs to be wrapped up on site (and why that’s normal) 📸 Reflections on filming such a long-running build series 📋 Punch list items, final finishes, and the realities of a “done” house 💬 A big THANK YOU to everyone who followed the series from start to now The build may be complete on camera, but we’re still out there wrapping up the small stuff that always comes with a big project. 👇 If you followed the MEGA build series — let us know your favorite part, moment, or episode in the comments! #LetJaimeTalk #MegaModernBuild #FinalEpisode #PerkinsBuilderBrothers #Episode127 #BuilderPodcast #ConstructionSeries #CustomHomeFinishLine #BehindTheBuild Hosted on Acast.
