    1:10:50 you got to love Noah, the attitude from such a little boy, he is amazing, funny, cheeky, and so inquisitive, he is a typical boy, loves machines, and using his imagination, not to mention the look on his face while going 'what' so funny. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Love the fact that you get your family involved in driving the roller, I bet your son was very happy to do that, shows what a good dad you are allowing your son to drive it, but staying within easy reach incase anything goes wrong to make sure he is safe.
    Then Noah has a go, I could clearly see the smile on his face, amazing work Jessie cant wait for your next video.
    1:30:35 Funniest part of the video Jessie "Noah what is your cow doing over here?", Noah "he went that way, this way, and I dont know what to do".

    Jesse, once again during all this, to make time to show both adian and Noah how to run the roller, and then watch as adian runs it is awesome. He is learning first hand, and all that he is learning here at home, is NOTHING taught in any school at his age, and to have them so interesed, just make you very proud! look forward to the next video and watch the continuation of this, and watch this build. Is this garage for the heavy equiptment?? or for your house??

  • @plowkingf15

    Drainage makes sense. Some youtubers built garages without proper French drains or swales. In storms and heavy rain, the buildings got water under the doors inside or worse. Some had expensive cars inside.

    its not about Jesse vs Andrew, but i always prefer video projects with knowledge instead of video project with entertainment. So i dont care if Andrew has uploaded his entertaining project, but if Jesse has uploaded a project its a MUST WATCH for me. Now Im watching this project after 11 hours after uploading because im not free, also I adjust my time schedule specifically just to watch Jessie's project & get unique knowledge, Im not that good in English but i still get to know almost all the things he explain. Thats my Respect for Jesse The "All rounder" Muller 😌

  • @LisaMedeiros-tr2lz
    @LisaMedeiros-tr2lz 7 месяцев назад +3

    Jesse, Nice work as always. I have a recommendation. I think diverting, even temporarily, water down to the front of your shop is a mistake. The 4" drain for future gutter runoff is barely adequate for the square area of your future shop roof (2,400 ft2). Given the electric services you ran there, you basically never want water to pool there. I thought earlier in the video when you said you were going to make a swale around the shop, you were going to divert the water that runs down the hill from the road out and around your shop and machine area over to the pond on the downside to the road slope. At 1:36:00 where you had the Ex parked and your SS working looks like the right place for that. Remember when you made your equipment parking, the water carved a culvert of its own there, given it responds to gravity and forms it's path to the lowest point on its own. I think when you filled that storm water runoff, it plays a big role in why your equipment area is always muck. Looking out ahead, it will always be good to have a loop around from your 16' wide (really good idea) access road to your shop front, around the right side of the shop (between the shop and where you temporarily parked the junk cars), around the back side of the shop and through your equipment parking back to the 16' road. Later, maybe even use that junk car "road" as the loop. This will allow you to use the semi-lowboy to pick-up/drop off equipment at the front door of the shop, or get equipment out for a job and loop around back out to the 16' access road. Instead of hogging out the two feet of dirt on the back corner of the shop, I would make a culvert just on the down side of the road runoff. For now I would just dig a three foot deep trench and route all the water to the pond until you can make a more permanent swale with rip-rap. Think about a good hard rain that is 1"/hr, and calculate the square area of all the property out back there down from the road. It looks like at least an acre. In a hard rain like that, you will have over 3,000 gallons an hour running through. It will flood the front of your shop and overwhelm your gutter pipe. Doing that storm water runoff will keep the water well away from the shop and your utilities. Just my thoughts, and I hope it is helpful.

    • @jmuller86
      @jmuller86  7 месяцев назад +3

      digging that new stream all the way around to my backmost pond is the key to everything. and remember only the one side of my garage gutters will drain into that 4" pipe right now. I will have a loop around too, for 2 purposes. to create a loop around for the garage area, and it will also serve as a loop around for my house parking

    What a project Jesse, great work !
    Filter fabric over the foundation drain may not be needed - In time it may clog & prevent flow into the pipe. Instead use a pressure washer with a jetter tip and feed it into the pond outlet side (every few years?) if you think the corroborated pipe may be filling with silt. A pressure washer jetter will self feed itself into drain pipe and clean it out.

    Jesse U always look forward to your videos ..your perseverance, hard work, amazing abilities to repair and fix big projects are totally amazing. I love learning so many extra things from your channel...far as the piston hole goes ..Too hot of combustion temperature will cause it especially if its aluminum. So make sure the water TEMP is normal and sufficient oil level pressure.
