Sometimes The Problem Isn't Obvious

- Опубликовано: 18 май 2024
- We had a problem at work that was years in the making. A plugged catch basin tile was causing the driveway to flood every time it rained. We thought we would discover a drain pipe that was plugged up but what may have been wrong was not obvious. We came up with a solution despite not discovering what was wrong.

Lol! Greg always has to “leave” when the work gets started!
You Said it not me. Lol
Love your work Neil!
A bit of a tip. You can hook up a Cable Locator to your snake and this will help you to accurately determine the alignment of where your snake head goes 🤓. Save you from digging on different spots
That's a great idea!
Those gravel guys were hilarious. Thanks for another great video, Neil, I look forward to Sunday mornings watching your video after church!
Another great video. I like how you show the details. How you found the problem and the solution to the problem. Then all the hard work. Keep them coming! Thanks
Looks like a catch basin with a sump that can be cleaned out would be a good idea. It lets the heavier sediment settle out before it runs into the pipe. I didn't go through all the comments, so it may have been noted already. Good video, as usual. The long selfie stick was a cool camera angle from the truck cab.
This does have a sump. It has a P-trap that allows sediment to collect in the bottom before water runs out the top.
Thank you. My Sunday (Australia) is now complete.
If everything ever went as planned, all of our projects would be done by now. Lol
Your knowledge of field tiles is top notch.
Great video Neil. Where I live the state requires on there projects one more step to the draining process. Before you install pipe in ditch. Use filter fabric. Run fabric down ditch wall, across bottom back up wall on other side. Install pipe in ditch. Backfill with 9 s then. Don’t completely fill too top. Flip filter fabric over on top of each other with the tails you left extra. Take tie wire etc to hold covering flaps. Cap the the 9s ditch with driveway gravel. Now 9 s and pipe are dirt or silt free for many years. Great content.
You are correct when you said that if you were trying to miss a tile in the field, you'd hit it right away with the hoe. I don't know why it works that way, but it does. Those "little jobs" always turn into much more than we intended originally.
Thanks for sharing my friend. Happy Sunday.
Mike, When your running a firewood and lumber business, work never stops. Your right a strong machinery maintenance program pays off in the long term.
As a full time videographer, I SO appreciate the addition of the 360 cam. It gets such cool shots giving a very unique perspective. I know it takes a lot of time too process that footage, but man is it worth it. I just got a 360 camera for my job running a RUclips channel in the boating space, and it helps us get shots we never could with a drone or a go pro. excellent video as always, Neil!
I appreciate that very much. I just need to get the color to look the same. The footage is always so dark and I don't have much experience in the color page yet on Davinci.
Pretty cool video on finding and relocating tile. Been binge watching your channel the last 6 weeks. Great family friendly channel. Thank you.
You are a handy cat to have around, Neil. Great video!
That's why his boss lets him hang around.
Well done sir ! That dirt you were dumping in the trailer would give me anxiety. I guess I’m spoiled with all the sand we have here 😂
Boy that went from a quick fix to a full blown project with a quickness!
Great video Neil best part the guys at the stone quarry cracked me up
Bonjour Neil. Il est toujours intéressant et agréable de vous regarder travailler utilement, alors que l’on est soit même tranquillement installé dans le canapé buvant un café après le repas du dimanche midi. Bon dimanche à vous. Emmanuel Bretagne France
Best part of this vid is being on the clock and the boss paying for everything. On a side note, Face masks for softball? How times have changed.
Good morning Niel! Someone’s video skills with the drone , selfie pole ( if that’s what it’s called) & camera location/angles are going from good to great! Thanks for your efforts to make videos not only entertaining but very informative and fun to watch!! Take care my friend! Oh I forgot congratulations on the win Coach
2nd the above!
Thanks a lot Mike! Sometimes I just get lucky with that selfie pole and it captures something cool! :)
Great Job Neal! I did notice that you didn't put the tarp over the load the last time, but some channel makers don't like to be told about issues with their content. Great that you addressed your mistakes. I'm sure the captain would have been there to help but he has many projects of his own to cover! But you helped put his Channel out there.
Nice work, it’s always good to have the right toys ( tools ) when doing a job.
It is nice that people are worried about covering your load. A terrible amount of stone blows out of trucks as they go down the road. LOL
Thank you for sharing, finding pipe isn’t easy and you did a great job.
It’s always that “I’ll just take one more swipe” that leads to us breaking the tile
Great to see a longer video, keep up the good work. 🙂
The banter on the radios is hilarious!!
Another easy success for you Neil.
Good Sunday morning & God bless you all
I found this video "intriguing". Thank you for sharing.
BlufftonReiff here. Thanks for the Sunday installment! Great camera angles!
Neil, you loved every second of this...
Great job Neil!
Great video. Thanks for the tips on beveling the edges when connecting cut pipes and slipping the Furnco on.
Fernco’s can be an absolute life saver.
I forget about beveling the draining pipe when you use off cuts and gasketed fittings. Typically I just use standard PVC fittings and glue it.
Just an example of having a lot of different ways to do the same thing.
Nice work!
I really really really love that tracing tool!!!! It proves the worth of putting tracing wire on lines I bury around my property. Avoids a lot of heart ache!!!
Fernco coupling, we call them " no hub clamps ". Nice video, sir.
Good job, jobbed Neil. It almost looked like a professional did that work. well ok Kleemanlike.
hey there bud, just before you tarp that load, ima here to remind you to tarp your load... watching you tarp it rn, I'm glad I reminded you 😎👍
Good Morning Neil. Have a great day
Good morning! You too!
I always like your channel, and I will watch the next one.
Thank you for pairing normal audio with your timelapse footage. I hugely prefer it over chipmunk audio or random music. I know Kleeman's been doing it too; hopefully it catches on more widely.
Admire the dedication to keeping things neat and clean, then to making sure your that what you install is better quality as well. Never quite as easy as what one would like it to be.Thanks for the video, enjoyed watching, never disappointed with the content.
Anytime you are moving dirt, digging in dirt, I am watching!×
I'm so thankful for you Aaron! You always brighten my day with your comments my friend!
@@digdrivediy Thanks for sharing your gifts and talents with the world! I am a supporter and fan of YOU!
Great video as always! FYI - The coupling you referred to as a Fernco is a "No Hub Coupling". Fernco is one of a number of manufacturers.
It was very satisfying to watch, and I gained some ideas if I ever need to do this kind of work. Great video. Keep up the good work.
In eastern Canada, most of our FO cables are up on poles.
Anyway, the support strand embedded in the cable jacket is reportedly Kevlar, not conductive steel.
They do this to prevent lightning strikes riding the support strand. Being FO, no need to worry about lightning.
Who doesn’t love a good trenching job. Well done crew!
I'm kinda surprised you didn't say "laying pipe"? :)
I’m just a small farm owner and I have an account with ours, the send me a bill the next week and I drop a check off or mail it in. So convenient not to have to stop in the office every load!
Great video and love the longer versions when I have to work. Plus I let the adds roll to help you out. I love when I get to work on my tractors. I call this digging therapy or tractor therapy or John Deere Therapy. I need lots of therapy.
Love these videos, great explanations too. Hope you haven't been affected by the tornadoes.
Neil, have you ever thought about doing a contest and the winner could come and work with your for a day or two? Man I would enter just so I could learn the pull type box on the driveway and do some dirt work with you. Oh and also your your shop to see all your toys!
LUKE!! LOL, great use of that hard earned degree! 😅 I promise I didn’t clog the drain!
Neil it makes it easier for doing a job like that if you have the hands to do it 👍😮😊❤
Good Morning Neil, its already 2pm over here 😉 Thanks for showing another nice relaxing video.. greetings from germany
You're very welcome! Great to hear from you this morning!
There’s a Morvair drawing in Matt’s shop. Looks great.
Good Sunday morning Neil! Have a fantastic week.
Good morning! Same to you!
Thanks and GOD BLESS 😀
Thanks for the video Neil like it and like your work too .
Hey, Looks good 'but' never use a T use a Y angled towards outlet you might backup in barn now on heavy rains. You can put a backup preventer in but remember you always got to put a clean out on either side of it.
Great work!
Interesting to see your old “tiles” are simply abutting each previous segment without a connector. We grew up with clay tile sewer pipe with each connection mortared to the previous. The individual pipes on one end, had a “female“ connector (like pvc conduit), the next piece of clay pipe was inserted there and that joint was then grouted. However, we all know that concrete and mortar are somewhat pervious to water, and as they would “weep” a bit over time those rich nutrients would attract roots - and then the problems began!.
Do y’all just not have roots that far down?
Y’all make it look easy 😂❤❤❤ blessing’s to all 😇🇺🇸
If you could pick a day for outside work...this looks like a great day.
Hey how’s it going Neil. The Fernco coupling you were referring to is also known as a mission coupling. Your master plumber buddy from El Paso, Tx. (Rudy). Keep up the great work! Like your channel.
Nice job making a French drain for your water runoff issues and congratulations on fixing the issue properly.
Nice job 👍 I learned a few good tips along the way !
Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Put your foot down.
Some people take advantage it's not cool.
But you are kewl and right!
Stand up for that.
Did somebody get a new 360° camera? 😁 Great video Neil! I always learn something every Sunday morning 🤠👍
Watching you in the trench twisting and throwing shovelfuls of dirt into the skidsteer bucket made my back hurt over here in IL.
Actually my back does still hurt from this!
I like, I especially like the part how you did NOT take out the internet. That would have been classic😅
Love this channel!
Dirt Perfect used a similar probe which he could follow with an instrument above the ground. Very important when installing drain tiles in a field with prior tiles. Don’t know if that system is rentable and it’s very expensive so doubt you would buy one.
Nice little, simple job 😉 Well done 🤗🇺🇸
Captain is on the way in his dump truck pulling the old 555.
Great episode a real smorgasbord of skills used. Just wondering if you should have laid some wire along the top of the pipe just incase you were to ever wanting to find the pipe again in the future?😊👍👍👍
15:33 and 15:38 Mario Bros Coin sound effect 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Love the videos.
Thank you!
Goood morning, will watch this at the beach today.
Boy that sounds nice! Hope it's not too hot!
@@digdrivediyit is very hot. Miami + heat wave but the wind and water feels good.
DDD. then church. The Sunday morning is complete.
Awe, I wanted to see you with Brutus and the grader box... Well that and the next down pour so see if the "fix" really worked as good as you'd hoped it would.
Fine work Neil looked like some easy digging not like the shale and rock here in Pennsylvania
Excelent job
Lettem know next time!! We wanna see his best shirt! 🤍
Great video dude
You need a sewer jetter kit for your pressure washer!
doesnt really help if the drain has been crushed by construction
You are gunna need an account at the stone quarry! Lol
No joke! I picked up an application :)
And a proper built in CB radio for that truck🎙️
Neil, in some jurisdictions, an un-tarped load, is the same fine as an un-secured load, very very expensive.
Another great vid. Should've ended it with some testing of the drainage. Either with hose or rain!
Good job .
Neil always woking hard big shout out to him
Didn't have enough spare tires for my truck to make it that far 🤣
Where does the drain tile in the field drain to? I live in East Tennessee, we don’t have drain tiles in our fields.
That fort wayne clay brings back memories sticks to everthing and is annoying to dig by hand.
That is for sure!
And the experts said his pond wouldn't hold water. That's some serious colloidal bonding right there.
Man, love yo videos. Not sure what is so captivating, but i enjoy watching u tackle your projects. Send me a hat and be glad wear it here in ky. Keep it going bro
Why not just put the spoils right in the trailer instead of skid steer?
811 for a locate?
boy Capt Kleeman is a lucky guy to get a shout out from you KUDOS
Good job guys
That 35G would pair nicely with the 331G Neil 😉. I have a 35G paired with a 333G
@20:51 that front tire is touching my yellow line, and you know how bad Indiana State Troopers are LMAO
It be nice to see the captain on your channel. You wore his shirt to support him. He brags on you regularly. I think it would be good.
I keep inviting him!
@@digdrivediy like you. So busy doing things.
