      I thought the same thing like its a sprinkler head. I get should have came in the other way this and that but come on don't be that asshole over something so small.

    Too nice to the neighbour, ask what's his problem and tell him to get off your land, you offered to fix the problem and he was being a D over a few sprinklers.

    Pretty sure you’re supposed to alternate the caps narrow face, wide face - that should get rid of the unsightly pie shaped gaps.

      That's what I thought as well, but from the b roll at the end, it looks like the narrow face doesn't have any texture. Maybe that's okay though?

    Hey @MrBuildit Alex please keep in mind now that you dug up youre water line that its not far enough under the surface anymore! It will freeze if you do not isolate it. In the current state its not winter safe. Electrical isnt as bad but you should really keep an eye out for youre water isolation

    Great video and amazing work building that wall in such a short time. One consideration is be careful with those end caps because someone may stand on them thinking they are glued and that could be nasty.

    Run a grinding disc along each row so the gaps even. I would wait until it's all together and had some time to settle beforehand though.

    Hard work! Maybe I missed it, but is the upper wall just sitting on dirt? As opposed to road base or rock like the bottom wall

    • @steveknights9825
      @steveknights9825 55 минут назад

      I was thinking the same thing.
      What is supporting the bottom of the upper wall from just sliding forward?
      Maybe the geo mesh? Or just a fingers crossed situation?

    Jedenfalls hast Du es Dir nach meinem laienhaften Verständnis mit diesem Bauplatz recht schwer gemacht. Aber "einfach" gibt es ja bei Dir selten, stimmt's ?

    That is a waste of a window. Just looking at a break wall.
    And a wast of a door, when you cannot even use the yard.

    You should be more careful with construction activities within the root zone around the mature trees and avoid compaction and excavation within this area. Hoping I am wrong but it is likely within 3-5 years those affected trees will fail..

      I’m almost certain Mr Build It is a Trump Supporter as well so if I were you, I wouldn’t be throwing out dumb comments on a RUclips video without doing your research. I really hope the low gas prices and housing market going down doesn’t upset you much in the coming years 😂

      @@Junior-fl6wd I have to say, as someone from Europe. The past 6 republican presidents only f'd up the economy more while driving up your debt, reducing social programs that do work and reduced legislation which protected workers. I think you will find that the current focus on transgenders, immigrants and your border allies won't work. I has never worked, it also hás never worked anywhere else in the world either.
      But considering the massive amounts of one sided media and general lack of free time you guys have, I don't blame you for not seeing it.
      You don't have to believe me either.
      But put the republican proposals and legislation side by side Al Qaida's laws from 5 years ago, they are pretty much in sync.
