Casey, I gotta say you are living my dream. You help people every day and you do it for free and you do it with a smile on your face and a good heart. I wish I could figure out a way to do the same. But until then, I will continue to live vicariously through you and thank you for all that you do. You, or a good egg!
Casey, I just smile every time you have a “squirrel moment”. Your YT channel narration, content and energy is so entertaining that I look forward to every episode!
The home we owned in Leadville, Colorado (Elevation 10,200 ft) (the elevation is required every time you say Leadville) had a similar foam form concrete basement construction. From the camera lighting, those nearly look like Tamarack trees (also known as several variations of larch). The Tamarack tree actually turns yellow in the autumn and loses its needles before spring. A Tamarack forest is amazing in the late autumn, early winter especially with the aspen when they turn as well.
Love ICF. I built my last house with them and will build my next one as well. By far the most comfortable and quiet home I've been in. It's not so much about R value as about other things. Such wind shear , air movement through the walls are a large source of heat loss and gain. With the cement core it virtually impossible for air to move through. Rodents, insects can't move through either. Proper entry point blocking and the home will stay free of pests. Noise transmission as well. Windows and doors are the only way for sound to transmit. You are basically living in a bunker. Heating and cooling are more efficient as well. I had zero cooling costs. I lined windows to take advantage of the evening breeze and would close up first thing in the morning. Living in Montana i would leave in the morning to 63° and come home on a upper 90° day to maybe 66°. Plenty cool for most. Winter heat was the same. Nice job.
I'm in south texas and it's 39° F , and my brass balls are freezing.... I can't imagine me being in Oregon doing what you do in the winter time...!!!! Great job Casey...!!!!
Great job Casey! Thanks for a great video. We are about to get snow and ice here in the south. Tow trucks will be working crazy. Keep everyone safe including you doing the work. God bless!
Must be nice for you to get a job that's relatively easy and straight forward once in a while . - 11F up here this morning in northern Ontario Canada , not much mud here .
For someone who has not seen ICF construction you seem to understand a lot of it's benefits. Mud is mud and it will bite you! I once pulled a Bomag BW200 ride on roller over a sealed but slimy roadbase by HAND. That was how much grip the rollers didn't have to be able to drive on the level. When you are stuck, you are stuck.
I've got a customer working over above Reed Market where they have to chain their Genie basket lift to a forklift and ease it down the 4-1 slope to use it on the back sides. They turned the wheels back and forth and dug them into the mud, and then the drive stopped working. Got it fixed and had to use a Skytrak to pull it out and hope they don't drive back into the holes. If thongs go bad there, they go REAL bad.
Kudos to you for getting the job done safely and efficiently, as always! 👍 That house will have a great view, for sure, even from the garage in the daylight basement! 😎
Interesting , Thank You . A fine example of the right equipment , a fine operator and the Mighty Casey in action. As to the house using the styrophome like that with rebar and proper concrete does give an amazing R value. done properly an amazingly solid and air tight biuilding
Watch a video from 8 months ago I believe when you was pulling a jackknife semi on a icy road seen you had steel cables. Glad you switched out after watching you I’m thinking of doing the same with my winches
Slow and easy👍😎 “Tell Matt we drove it right up the hill” 😂 Always gotta mess with those friends😉 Thank You for the filming, editing and sharing! Stay safe out there.❤️✌️🇺🇸
Every time you operate the Zacklift I have this deep feeling in my soul that I NEED to put my own hands on that beautiful piece of equipment. I’ve driven all sorts of equipment and all sorts of trucks, cars…. Even homemade creations. This one really speaks to the “little boy” deep in my heart. I do have a question “Professor Casey” , can you pull a heavy load like the forklift while using the boom winch by just driving foreword while under load? I’m guessing you shouldn’t as you didn’t. Thank you for the lesson on where not to drive your forklift! 🙏❤️😎🤙
Insulated concrete forms / icf are super cool. I think about using them to build all the time. Just gotta sell and buy some bare land and an excavator.
Casey, the Styrofoam is ICF. Insulated concrete forms. Great r value. On of the manufacturing facilities is just outside of Winnipeg Canada close to where i live.
Hey Casey, you can have our snow. Currently 33° and a fairly heavy snow event in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. We don't do snow like up there. Nice easy pull on that mini Sky-track.
Just a few thoughts : 1. How often does the tow rope ( since it's not cable ) need to be replaced before its tensile strength is compromised ? 2. Having a forklift definitely has its advantages in the house construction . Wonder how they will resolve having a path down ? 3. That's wild to build an expensive house so close to the road when the possibility of ice can lead to a vehicle careening off and rolling into the house let a alone a careless driver .
That "Porta Potty: laying on it's side in the street.. looked quite amusing. After all that expended ⚡⚡energy. Time for some "Gas Station Cuisine", bag of Doritos and a soda. Drive on Casey!
Hi Casey. I have been working in offshore oil for nearly twenty years and based on the experience and training I have received, I want to give you a friendly piece of advice, my dear friend. I watch almost all of your videos. In many cases, when the wire is under a lot of pressure to tow or pull vehicles, you stand close to the boom truck or winch. Even the brake wire on carrier aircraft is not 100% reliable and the forces are placed at a distance or position that does not pose a danger if the wire breaks. Many times, a task may be performed safely as a routine task, but safety dictates that you always consider even a one percent chance of the wire breaking or the boom breaking or the shackles breaking. I wish you, who has been and will be the saving angel of many, health and success always.❤👑
As said, he does not use cable, but the Yankum Freedom lines, which are synthetic, thus not nearly as dangerous as steel cable tends to be, and towing often requires one to be closer to the cable when no remote is available.
@@johnhpalmer6098 doesn’t matter wether it’s cable or rope, we still stand in the same spots. Notice that the controls on wreckers have you standing right next to the line, and many don’t have remotes..
@@CaseyLaDelle You are absolutely right. That is why even looking at the situation of the wire under pressure is stressful. Let alone working in that environment. I wish you to always continue to help others under the protection of Jesus Christ.
Those ICF walls are the way to go when building a concrete house we have the footers formed and then stack and pour a story at a time from basement to top they have hard plastic studs every 16 inches with markings where the studs are a little bit of expanding foam glues the joints together and the wall jacks and walkboards are all you have to pack in and out no heavy form boards and fighting carrying plywood on a windy day and 2 inches of foam sprayed with a water resistant membrane with a French drain on the outside below footer level and 2 inches of foam insulation on the inside with whatever you put between the wood studs and the foam after electric and water is ran most people go with spray foam and at least 1 floor drain in the basement and a basement and 2 storys of a 200x200 house the ICF forms can be brought in on a 20 ft bumper hitch trailer eliminating getting multiple form trailers on the job then using special screws to attach siding and sheetrock deck screws and drywall screws go right in the plastic studs and no tearing down the forms and packing them out especially in mud or wind less work and less vehicles and trailers in the way and the forms come in 4 6 and 8 inch thick concrete walls and stack like Legos been using it in the Midwest almost 2 decades I know of I'm the dirtwork and rock guy I have to make sure the concrete pump and trucks can get in and out packing rock in the soft spots pulling them if they sink to the pumpkins and by the time the pour is done I can usually put construction screen down and the Finnish coat in because the drive is solid a few jobs I had to bring the pad foot vibraroller in but only really sloppy jobs the pour and framing the house to pass on to electricians and plumbers is pretty fast then setting trusses is straight forward siding roofing and insulation has the drywall guys rolling in and within a week the finish guys are out of the flooring guys way and you're living in a finished house within weeks of the basement or foundation is dug definitely worth the little difference in price
You haven't mentionned it but that operator looked like a really good one, his tires were never spinning much more than they should have been, called you on time when he fell like he was gonna go over on that left side, ...
Imagine having that beautiful lot cabin just across the street from where Casey had the truck parked and some guy build a new house on the giant slope directly in front of you😂😂
That styrofoam is Insulated Concrete Forms. The house is “framed” with those “Lego” clocks and then concrete is poured into them to create a very strong and well insulated house. It’s very energy efficient, but costs more than normal construction costs.
@ I’m planning on building my next house and from what I’ve read ICF houses cost more than concrete block houses but the total cost of ownership is lower. Meaning the savings from reduced energy use more than makes up for the higher total construction cost. I’m planning on ICF because I live in an active hurricane zone and those houses are sold and can withstand hurricanes and tornados better than concrete block houses.
I assume at some point this is going to be mentioned, but all hail the algorithm. it's a telehandler, why didn't they just push it up the hill with the boom? That's what we used to do with farm ones when we'd got them burried in a field. edit: oh, ah, you'd need bigger balls than me to reverse up that given how soft it was!
P you’re funny! What do you mean you don’t have mud! As memory strikes me you were just stuck in your own mud trying to get connected to your trailer a good share of the day!
Insulated concrete forns is what they are using. Its basically styrofoam with cross bracing you stack like legos and then pour concrete into. Perfect for things like basements.
Thats ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms) :) I.e Build a Lego House & fill the Voids with Concrete... Result: A Highly insulated, Strong building (if poured rite).
Casey,have a look at Bealy Good channel,he is building an ICF home/castle . The process is interesting. There's another channel who has built onto his Castle ,and that is NYA Mellinial. Yes the R factor is the main reason to build with ICF . Big Lego for Adults lol
🤣🤣 We don't have mud says the guy that just got the new truck stuck in mud on his driveway...😂😂😂 I live in a very dry area now, literally it rains 4 or 5 times a year. We don't have mud here, unless it just happened to rain....😮
I am wanting to build a shop garage and want to build it out of those ICF blocks and concrete. I live in Oklahoma and sometimes in the winter it gets really cold and in summer it can get really hot plus the threat of tornado's the ICF blocks would be the way to go in my opinion. That is if I can afford it.
What you spend in the icf blocks you save in forming labour. They stack up like Lego, very quick if you are organized. Plus no labour to knock them down after the concrete hardens plus vastly improved insulation going forward.
"Lucky for us out in the desert we don't have mud" but video or two ago you got stuck in your own driveway with new rig "stuck in the mud"
Correct, and this was not anywhere near my house.
But he got stuck in slime not mud. 😂
@CaseyLaDelle thank you for another interesting video, mud can turn up anywhere it's a geological event, things change a lot.
@@CaseyLaDelle We're all just poking fun because part of your last video was you literally getting the new beast stuck in the mud at your house haha.

Indeed! It is a happy moment for sure when I see a new upload from him in my feed and always an enjoyable watch before work or during lunch.

Seen those trees in Idaho , looked like the hillside was on fire
@ That is where I grew up, and yes! I have a couple of stories for non-larch fireside chats to tell.
@@jamiesuejeffery There may be a tamarack around, but mostly those are Ponderosa Pines, scientific name, Pinus Ponderosa.
I think we're going to need to see an update on this house when they start constructing the driveway and garage area. Nice pull!
Oh, yeah, I'd love to see that, too!
How great is to have both, the guy and machine. Great job Casey . Congratulation
Those Styrofoam blocks look like ICF blocks. They're really cool

Awesome job 👏 Great recovery 👍 No harm to machine and human 😊 Thank you for sharing Casey 👌
Your humility makes this amazing video even much special.
Another Thursday evening with Casey - thank you.
The setting of that house is amazing. Good job pulling that forklift up and out. The construction crew was friendly and helpful and appreciative.
Pretty darn good, but the direction Casey pointed is where the tall volcanoes are. The view that way is beyond incredible.
Nice work!! Not a complicated recovery, but enjoyable watching anyway! Thanks for keeping us entertained. You are appreciated, Casey!!

Kudos to you for getting the job done safely and efficiently, as always! 👍 That house will have a great view, for sure, even from the garage in the daylight basement! 😎
Good job Casey , man that is a beautiful area! There are some really nice homes there!
I've had one of those stuck. I used the forks and boom to push myself out. Tilt forks and stick them in the ground. Extend boom
@JasonShort-i4o
In this case, that would have pushed the SkyTrack back into the woods though.
You make things look easy makes my morning cup if coffee more enjoyable.

ICF is fast once the slab is laid, basically just pour to a good height.
That's a great video, Casey. It's nice to see you have an uneventful recovery 👍.
Outstanding Work and Great Recovery
Your experience is Awesome
Good working with an experienced driver. Nice!
you found mud a couple day ago lol in your drive way. lol

Yes, he did, there no reason be smart-ass about it. Ooh wait which channel this was again. Off course you need to be.

You are PURE MAGIC CASEY No Dout about it 100% PURE MAGIC
Insulated concrete forms .
I was one supervisor at a local company manufacturing those.
We were rated #1 while I was employed there
As planned.. an easy winch out.
From the description of that house.. it's going to be very expensive. Car elevator.. WOW
You just know the second Casey left, someone else jumped in the machine and drove it right back down that slope ;-)
Nope, likely it is on its way back to the rental place by the time Casey left the site.
I have seen quite a bit of that hollow foam block construction. Mostly for basement and foundation walls but occasionally for whole houses.
Good ole Oregon mud.

Wonderful video! I love watching your work. Keep it up!
My parents built their house with those insulated concrete form styrofoam blocks back in the 1990s. Really neat stuff.
#IHateCaseyLadelle
Wow, just awesome! Your simplicity makes it special.
Easy peasy Casey.. but what's up with the porta pooper laying on it's side?! did you check for anyone stuck inside 🤣🤣

I think the same ! Cool and no rush.
That construction worker is a cool dude 😎
See all the brush and trees next to the houses? That is why houses burn in a brush fire. You need defensive space!
PIECE OF CAKE, WITH A ZACKLIFT AND CASEY AT THE CONTROLS.😊

Great video to start the morning!!!!!!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing
One thing I really miss about driving tow truck/wrecker is every day is something different.
Hope you didn't forget them wheel chocks down the hill in the muck
