Hi Andrew, greetings from Czech Republic (that is the small country east from Germany that kicked Germany´s ass multiple times in history). I simply love your channel, and you were right in one of your previous videos - I watch them as if they were "how to" tutorials. That is because your content is made very carefully and simply, to be understood even people like me, with no prior experience with your field of work. While I like all of your videos, I find those which start with you saying "so I´m on this job today..." or "so I picked up this..." the most interesting. I especially loved your snowmobile repair/conversion videos, since we do not have too much snow in here :-D Keep up the good work, I always appreciate people like you - smart and hard working self-made men.

Nice job here, I stumbled upon this channel this morning & so glad I did! Geologically speaking, U are working in similar terrain I live on here in n. central VT. Back in 2000 I installed a 1000 gal. in ground refurbished tank, yours looks like a 500... Mine is for my LPG fired FHW furnace in the house. I too used bank run material, mostly sand with a occasional stone del. via a tri-axle dump truck, ( 1 ) load. At each end of my tank I cut a notch out & sat anti-corrosive bags in place & via a wire, flash welded them to the tank's ends, soaked each bag with a pail of water & buried them along with the remainder of the tank, done... Been (20) years, knock on wood, no problems. Glad to see U using the grease gun on the hammer, hammers can be tough on equip. for sure, this stuff looked like a shale like material & broke up nicely... Good job burying the utilities too & U even managed to save the white pine! Nice job on the cleanup too, obviously U take pride in your work, well done... Bill on the Hill, Vermont... :~)
