Good explanation of what's going on Geoff. I don't think we've seen james move so fast b/4 this video 🤣 Seriously, he is picking up considerably from pre-build. Keep it up james!!😃 Keep pecking away at it & take a deep breath as you have just a little ways to go on this project.😱😱😱
Great progress Geoff. Have to say, your progress with operating the Kubota is mighty impressive. I'm not saying that Chris need to worry, but it s still not that long ago that you first got it and got stuck in the woods (and then the swamp), so hats off to you!
The water came rushing out of the drains was a shocker. And I have to say, you learned grasshopper from Chris, and put his lessons to good use. It's nice seeing more progress being made, which has been hard given all the rain you've had. Thanks for sharing, Geoff.
Lets Dig 1/8th did a serviceable job :). Explanation good of past and future tasks. Grass has greened up with all the rain. Admiring the view on the warm Summer morning - just beautiful.
Digging ditches and trenches is much easier than back in the day 😂 Nice job! Looks like we have some drier weather moving in starting this Sunday. Will be productive next week for all of us working outdoor projects Have a nice weekend!
Cool:: thanks on explaining the membrane issues. I remember you putting down the weather striping on the sun shelf but didn’t know that was the membrane you had talked about with Chris.
Great job with your update on the house, Jeff. It's a shame you didn't have a trench to the pond, so you don't have more mud. Chris will tease you about that when he comes back. Everything you said makes sense, Jeff.
Lot's of good info in a really short video. Keep up the great work . A really big shout out to James,Tater and the other guys working with you. Y'all are doing a BEALY GREAT JOB
Yes, Chris will be proud of your ditch. Maybe he'll bring his mini over so you can use it for a while! HaHa Probably not as he seems to use it a lot on his farm. Thanks for giving a great explanation of the issues with the pump room and the sun shelf. You will get it done and then you can sit back and enjoy it all. Cheers
In your pump house you need a fan that blows in and one that blows out because there's going to be chlorine in that room and it will eat that metal roof out of there if you do not have adequate ventilation and keeps moisture out also
Almost everyone is doing saltwater pools now so chlorine should not be an issue. It probably does need some ventilation or a dehumidifier just for moisture though.
@@kennethney4260 - I was checking into these several years ago and from what I was led to believe, as the salt water passes through the chlorine generator the salt is converted to chlorine, but the moment that the water has passed by the generator then the chlorine reverts back to salt. I might not understand the process correctly because as soon as my owner/operator pool supplier told me that they would not spend the money to convert then I lost interest.
Nice of you to share what’s going through your mind concerning the challenges that changes to the original plan present. You seem to be taking it right in stride. Also nice to have help at the ready to keep things moving along. Really enjoy following your build.
I'm glad you decided to put a floor in the mechanical room. Definitely going to help with moisture. The comments about chlorine aren't you using a salt pool chlorine generator? It shouldn't be an issue. Looking good ! I agree with everyone exhaust fan in the mechanical room up high and a louvered door. We had some swampy mechanical spaces underground. One that was 50k sqft poorly designed . Made for some interesting flooding when piping failed.
Dude you’ve got a lot going on.. I’ve built my own house before and I know what you’re going through! Hang in there. When it’s finally done and you’re sitting on your pool deck sipping ice tea.. it’ll all be worth it..
I like the talking, I can’t always follow what you’re saying, sometimes I see videos out of order, but I’m sure talking it out is helping you think things through. We are free to skip over the talking if we choose. Either way, sweet vidoes!!
Jeff I also want to say that I was hesitant at first. I was wondering why you didn’t just do a poured foundation. All that extra work. But now I see that a second level of icf is coming do I realize. I may have missed a vid or you may not have explained exactly what it was but you all have to admit it is pretty dang cool !!
@@BealyGood I’m an electrical engineer. Not sure ur background but you know things ! I live in the north east and I’m not sure we are ready for that other than basement forms. But I enjoy watching. I cringe at some of ur pipes but that’s just me.
A couple of things you might want to consider with the pool filter: one is when you back wash you will be pushing a bunch of water. Make sure what ever you are pushing it into for the backwash can handle the volume. Also, put a clear section in the backwash drain so you can watch the progress. That way you can see when it’s finished backwashing by watching for clear water.
@@kennethney4260 Mine didn't so I relied on watching the discharge hose to see the progress. Made a big mistake once of terminating the backwash while the water was still coming out dirty. It pushed a lot of that dirt back into the pool when I returned the operation to Filter.
🚨 🚨 I knew the Talking Police 🚨 🚨 were going to stop by and issue a citation. Probably the same people that say “you got time to lean, got time to clean”. I enjoy the videos, keep them coming!
This is all very interesting. Wondering when you will be installing all the raidant heat for the heated floors in the basement? and will you also be installing the raidant hearted floors in the first floor as well??
Really? I thought it was obvious, but at times, you do very quick explanations and just point in the general vicinity, and move your hand around so it has me wondering sometimes. 😂
Hey love the Chanel as for the pool pump and electrical room I would suggest a good filtered cross ventilation due to moisture and excessive heat that will take down and destroy motors pumps electrical in no time flat. it's bad enough up here in north central Wisconsin. I have seen this to many times . I bet it's really nasty in your part of the country with heat and humidity.
Watch your elevations if your planning on the floor drain coming in the bottom of the basin. If your outlet is too high you'll just push water backwards up the floor drain pipe...
Stay the course, you seem to be in the “all the little details” right now before you can move into the next bigger part of build, and is tedious at times but necessary. I think you should give yourself some credit, I would say at the very least, 1/6th LD18, it was a fine trench, it even held water!!!!🙄😬😉😏, thanks for the update.
Every step is one more step towards completion! Just curious as to where you expect to be in the build before the cold weather hits?! Thanks for sharing Mr. Bealy Good!
@@BealyGood I'm unfamiliar with that system so I don't presume to know more about it than the design engineers. To me, it just seems like a lot of weight on the bolted joint and foot pads.
Hey Dr. BG, So what comes after LetsDig1/8...3/16th's??? Can't wait for water-proofing & more concrete! Then Chris can fill in around the foundation...yyaaa!! Stay safe! Thumbs up! Jim
That was exactly my thought as well. Salt pool or chlorine, neither will be good for the fish. I would have thought a large soak away set well back from the pond would have been better.
@@justinharvey6192 I bet that pond has a crap ton of input so I’m sure a small amount of diluted salt or chlorine would negatively affect it. Watch his other vids where that pond could overflow so much that unless those things were sediments it wouldn’t matter.
Looking good Geoff! So you flip flopped again on the floor on the pool equipment room, the last time you said you was going to leave it gravel, so if there was a leak it would drain faster. Concrete is good, it will keep the vermin out. So have you decided to pour the floor /Roof the basement so you have hsve a place to anchor the plum wall braces?
@@BealyGood I honestly doubt that will be strong enough. What is the gauge of metal on the Floor pan, unless you are going to anchor to the beams of the floor pan, plus in the adjustment your will have to allow for the downward deflection at the brace point of the legs. Have you talked to the Super floor about attaching Plumwall braces to the pan without concrete over the pan? My cousin in Texas has a company that builds Customs homes, and he said the ICF bracing need as solid floor to anchor to, earth, wood or concrete. he said super floor is good and strong, but it needs to be capped before anchoring ICF bracing.
@BealyGood Programmed? I can see why you would conclude that. But that's not me. Anyway. I wish you well with it all. I simply can not relate. I could have had fancy stuff all my life. It just was not important to me.
Where did the water come from, I thought the pool but that still has water? Thank you and have a great and awesome week. PS That piping has not changed since two videos back. :)
Can you speak to how you if you will be neutralizing the chlorine as it gets drained into the lake or will this pool not have chlorine and be salt or something? forgive me i am interested for my future pool set up.
17:00 That's one way to test your ditch slope... Duct tape some 4 inch flexi drain pipe on those pipes and run it out at least to the ditch. Stop eroding your work away.
Sounds like you are finding details left out of the engineered drawings. Chris has no worries about competition from your digging. Did you just admit finding the hard way you can`t pull wire thru too many bends?
So all the new subscribers over the past few months, don't know much about dog dog, the chickens or the duck mafia, let alone feeding up in the mornings. I kinda miss that.
The money I spend is nothing, and I mean not a drop in the bucket to the wealth that exists in the country. I did projects all over the place and it amazes me that people think I spend a lot. I guess it's a combination of people not getting out much and others not showing their builds on RUclips.

Wondering if you'll finish the house or the pool first? I'm thinking the house first so you don't get construction garbage in the pool,
Did you even leave room for a septic tank and field? I dont see it anywhere. Or the intake for a water system for the house.
Yes
This is all very interesting. Wondering when you will be installing all the raidant heat for the heated floors in the basement? and will you also be installing the raidant hearted floors in the first floor as well??
Yes. They both get radiant. I was hoping to get under roof and then work on the floors. We’ll see how the timeline goes.
