I love sheen, plus. So easy and flawless results. Pro tip I use is instead of a rag, I use a roll of paper towel to rub it over the surface, allowing for even distrubution of the oil and. You dont even need the white applicator pad after in my experience.
We love it too for it's easy and flawless results! Thanks for the tip!

Love the gleeful lady over the gift of refreshing water.
Show a step by step please I need something like this in my house

I hate this sound
Nice work. And nice pants 👌🏼
Instant Sub.
Welcome to the channel!
What about strength of the slot? If you slightly over-tighten your tslot attachment bolt, the wood cracks.
You shouldn't need that much force, but if there is a weak spot in the wood and one of the slots breaks on us eventually, we can always route out the groove and install t-track. No problems so far though 👍
If you can sharpen that cutter with a hand file, that tells me something.
You caught us! We couldn't get to the vertical cutters with our stone because the shank and t slot cutters are bigger diameter. So we had to come up with something that looked "right" for the video. 😅
Try Temu lol. Everything is low quality but I bought some and they were all good. Cost me $5 for around 6 ft of it.
Ive been so hesitant to purchase T track and this video has convinced me not to jump into T track and all the bells and whistle that go along with it. I will eventually but using little bits of knowledge like this and not relying on a product seems it would help me in the long run. Cheers.
Glad we could help! Good luck!
commentary seriously sounds like youre a monotone robot reading a poorly written script... stop trying so hard to sound "professional" and have some life in ya
Does not compute 🤖⚡⚡
I like my Yonico router bits. I also have seen in many video on routing key slots, that they recommend cutting the groove in advance with a different cutter. So I wouldn't blame the quality of this brand.
I am glad your Yonico Bits work well for you. We are just stating our experience and want to make sure people know what to expect. 😄
😊
And as the wood weakens .....
We made it from leftover decking boards. It's pressure treated wood, and built solid. It'll last many many years.
Needed a sign... ❤️

I think u can just stand those 3 barrel side to side and drill a holes add a short clear hose then when one barrel is full then it move to the second barrel. Save on pvc pipe And save on clear hose if u know what I mean
I love it ❤🎉 thank you

looks like a great setup, i would have probobly nade the stand out of 4x4's instead of 2x4's you have about 1500 lbs of water right there. never ever use that music again.
We originally designed it as 4x4s with notches cut into it but decided that doing two 2x4s put together would be more approachable for most people. It makes the project more like framing a house and less like fine woodworking. 😅
@@biglivinglittlefootprint fair, in that case I would design it for 2 rain barrels. That way it’s less weight.

So satisfying to watch, his awesome narrative voice reminded me of the movie "shawshank redemption". The swing is beautiful.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Please wear a mask while sanding. It's not good for your lungs
Sander is hooked up to dust collection ✌️
I'm curious if you needed both sets of cleats or just a spacer for the bottom. I'm looking at doing something similar, but taller. 10'wide by 6'high. Would I need more than 2x4 cleat material?
Looking to use 4 30" wide panels
2x4 clear material should still be more than enough for those panels. We still highly recommend using a cleat at the bottom though to keep the panels tight against the wall.
Thanks
4 bubbles off plumb
Believe it or not, but the tower is actually plumb. You can even see where we shimmed under the legs to make up for the non level concrete. The pipes lean a little due to the weight of the water, but tower itself is perfect 👌

How do you get rid of the water collecting in the bottom of the barrels? Mosquitoes???
Each barrel is linked to the next so the water collected flows from one to the next. We use the water frequently, and the water isn’t stagnant for weeks in the barrel, so we've never had a mosquito problem.
How much was the material cost for this bed frame? Im thinking about building one for our guest room, debating if its worth building or buying one🤔
The cost varies a lot depending on the wood species you buy and the bed size. A solid, quality hardwood bed frame you can find running upwards of $1200-2,000+ depending on size. The wood we bought was just under $800 for this King bed frame.
Beautiful...
Nice... What type of wood?
Thank you. This project was made from sapele. We wanted it slightly darker though so we applied Rubio Monocoat - Black
Would a single, bigger tank have been less efficient?
Bigger tanks are more expensive. But we really wanted to get the water level as high as possible in order to get the most water pressure out of the hose.
@@biglivinglittlefootprint ah, yeah and the bigger tank would take longer to fill to that level. Makes sense
If you have the space, what I did was get a piece of culvert pipe. Turned on end, sunk in concrete. Boom, mid field cistern for the animals.
That's a cool idea too!
perfect song 😂
I agree 🤣

That was a GREAT video!! Very cool. Learned a LOT
Glad to hear it!

Brilliant! I can't do this because I need to use a folding workbench, but if I could I surely would.
Thanks! It's convenient for sure!

Yeah that endgrain wood is really thristy. I just ordered my Sheen plus last week. Super interested in seeing the results. A lot of people like a satin finish.
We loved the results on our table. Be sure to let us know how your piece turns out!
Do you have a trick to mark the correct height to fix the cleats on the Wall?
We measured up from the bottom of the board to the edge of the cleat and then marked that same line on the wall and aligned the other half of the cleat to it.
Lovely. Wondering, How to maintain and keep clean inside barrels.
We use opaque barrels and pipe to cut down on algae growth, and the first section of pipe off the down spout captures most run off from the roof. So it's relatively clean water inside the barrels. That said, they are only used to water plants. We wouldn't recommend drinking from them.
Nice! I will try that!
Great! Let us know how it goes!
At the beginning when the hand appears and turns the light on and off, that slays me.
Low budget filming means working with what we got lol 😆 😂
I appreciate the hard plastic feel and protection of poly specifically whenever I finish a project, go to put away my tools and inevitability drop one of them on it. I am all for being more efficient though, so I will have to give this a try. Only problem I can see is if it requires 3 hands to stir 7:04 😆 Thank you for the video
Totally have dropped tools on finished projects 😅 We love being more efficient and from our personal experience Rubio has held up really well and durable. Hope you give it a try! Haha we also have a very active 4 year old who always wants to help (aka the third hand 😂)
you should not smile on blowing dust without a dust mask or your lung is gonna cry
We tried crying instead of smiling the first time we filmed this scene....turns out we're not that good of actors 😆 (BTW, there was basically no dust on the piece due to the awesome 3M sandpaper and our vacuum that had already sucked it all up 😜)
There’s still dust you dolt lol…this video is awful by the way
Bravo pour le scénario 😊
Thank you!
