    Just remember that the ramp are stepping stones for bigger things to come!

    One of the only DYI channels to have discovered the significant advantages of mixing concrete in a wheelbarrow using a “HOE”!!!!

    As always u learn as u go and next time it will be better, what u guys are doing is art that will last for generations to come. I'm excited for the logs and to see the ramp finished, matching its walls and lids, almost finished the heart of the project, the shed. ❤❤❤

    It's common practice to paint bare wood being used as a form with a petroleum product of some sort to prevent the wood from wicking away moisture and to ease removal, much like using mold release when casting things in plaster or epoxy. The rocks on the ramp into the shed will also provide good traction in crappy weather, an excellent side effect.

    Jacob buy a 1/2 electrical pipe bending (kickey) pipe bender and a 5' piece of half inch galvanized pipe for a handle,,it's easier then the piece of pipe you're using, Jerry ( electrician)

    Things are really coming together nicely. Looking very tidy. Looking forward to seeing the siding. Also, nice to see the great horned owl in the neighborhood. I've been curious if there were any in the area.

  • @robfox5892

    Jacob! Dude! Those are just about the buji-est lids I have ever seen! Top shelf man.
    Oh and BTW, you can totally flip them over and soak them down with water a couple times every hour or so, that will cause the flaky concrete you were concerned with to finish setting. Looking awesome guys!

    • @aboulderlifeoffgrid
      @aboulderlifeoffgrid  Год назад +1

      Not sure what buji-est means, but I'll take it as a compliment! 😅 Thanks for the tip on the flaking concrete.

    "That's one reason there are "push blocks" Seal the cement covers with "dry lok" just to keep them from drawing moisture.

    Jacob and Natalie, it is so nice that you encourage your kids and and are positive with them. An example of your encouragement and excitement was when Eli & McKenzie picked out some rocks for the lids and ramp. Your kids are in a positive environment so they can try out things on their own. Another example of encouragement was when Eli was pushing the wheelbarrow. The lids and ramp turned out real nice. Big blessings to you folks.
