Pulling a water service with the magical cable
Another leaking service that had been patched multiple times previously. We had some trouble finding the main but eventually was able to pull a new line using our "magical" cable that no one in our area seems to be familiar with.

Playing in the poo pipe! Dual sewer cleanout install. (Re-uploaded)
Просмотров 5 тыс.8 месяцев назад
Older video from a few years ago where me and Zac help a friend of ours out on a sewer dilemma. He had no cleanouts accessible to clear his line so we installed some. Some people don't like "bullhorn" cleanouts because you cant see inside but they do help when guiding an eel. The sewer has been working fine ever since.

Little drone flight over our Christmas in the Park here in Central Illinois. This was my first night flight and I was a little nervous with the thought of losing my bearing on direction, which I did, but kept calm and brought it back successfully! Hopefully you enjoy!

    After watching this video I purchased a soldering kit and capacitors. Never have I soldered before. But with having to choose to replace or fix. I opted to fix on my own. When I pulled out the board and I had the exact the same issue as in the video, one of the electrolytic capacitors was swollen. After some work and determination I was able to get it out and was able to replace it. Been 2 days and my fridge is working perfectly. Very thankful I found this video. Thank you so very much.

    • @TimMcArdle
      @TimMcArdle 8 дней назад

      Your right. We had no compaction equipment at the time and the department never had before us. We actually do have a compactor now for road jobs. Trying to get where we don't have to deal with settling however we actually don't have too many issues with the sand we use. We definitely spend more time on better roads. This one was redone a while after this and is good today.

    Late to the show and hope you see this. I have the same fridge and the exact same issue lol. Have two swollen capacitors (two of the three in the group). Awaiting new caps and going to replace all three 470uf. Thanks for the video. Wish me luck as the control board now is almost 400 and display board is 240.

      Yes, the saddle on the main has what is called a corporation stop (corp) that has a turn valve on it. That was definitely a hacked up job no doubt. I found that a lot of guys around here have never heard of using cables the way we do. It sure saves a ton of work!
