My daughter and I are Loving both your channels! Would be worth tacking a plate to one of the centre columns to be used as a fixed datum for your laser and levels.

I love the "girls will you stop playing with those concrete blocks", it definitely shows the type of upbringing they're having! Also, and it's an important one! Did your new toy arrive?

Wow! Indeed a view that makes all the hard work worth it!

Love the progress. I’m having a hard time visualising a house within a barn but can’t wait for all to be revealed!

I owned an old Nissan forklift with a 1600cc engine on lpg. I was an awesome thing to have. We kept everything on pallets and could move things around easily. They don’t like ‘steps’ so the rocks inside may be an issue but easily fixed. Great job 👏

Congratulations on getting to this point can't wait to see what happens next

Good idea on the fork lift Tim another plan get some pallets to put the blocks on …piece of then when it comes to shuffle them about yard .. 🤣👍 would insulation then a pour on top work out less expensive I’m thinking ? you could protect the finished slab with site boards the plastic ones that interlock to work on and run on .. load bearing would probably similar no matter which way round you do it but better thermal mass heat retention if the pour is on top looking forward to the master plan unveiling

Hey Tim one quick idea for you. Why not forget the concrete slab and level out the ground pop some grass seed down & its done!! Less work for you, the kids will love it as will maggy pie. Good luck getting the idea past you council planners tho 😂

Looking fwd to seeing your new/old forklift in action. I’ve seen from your instagram you had some problems getting it off the truck. Your new house is going to be Mahoooosive!!!

Great stuff Tim

A msot energetic video! Good luck with it Tim, I would have thought a beam and block floor would be a less risky option though.

A c3 ie jcb better known they have forks a front loader clam shell .....plus a rear hoe bucket ... just a thought

I think you may find trying to keep and reuse the blocks is more trouble than they are worth, with the time spent cleaning them down, moving them around, etc., with all the other work you have to do in building your dream home and looking after the farm.

I thought the same but having seen how clean some are its worth keeping those. At £3-4 a piece it could save when we need retaining walls in garden and no budget after build!

Put all the bricks on pallets , easy to pick up with a fork lift.

What about hiring a pan mixer that will run on the back of your Massey, that will save cost with a concrete trucks and you could do like you said a bay at a time.

@thomasbroker69 4 ай бұрын

I’ve been wondering about the slab it’s such a huge size it looks like it’s going to be humongous, this is an industrial scale pour, makes sense to do it in patches. 20k seems quite cheap in comparison to a normal self build slab. It’s this the equivalent of 3 or 4 houses plots?

@TheRestorationCouple 4 ай бұрын

A rule of thumb seems to be same again as concrete cost to lay. Will make a decision in a couple of weeks to how we do it whether its a contractor in a single day or shutter the bays and do over a week ourselves.

@@TheRestorationCouple What would be the impact on your sub base if concrete mixers enter your building though, they are known for crushing driveways for example.

The forklift may be a good solution, the other advice about pallets is good too. But, please make sure that you wear the lap belt, it will help save your life in the event of a turn over, too many accidents every year with forklifts. Yes, boring health and safety, I’ve worked with forklifts and related training for many years, dealt with the fallout from accidents too many times.

Probably a stupid question but is it ok for us to view the welding arc on a monitor or could it damage our eyes?

@dickinsp 4 ай бұрын

Is safe

@pindustries8836 4 ай бұрын

No you get burnt from the uv light from the arc its self

@CinnamonTrees 4 ай бұрын

It's fine. The video won't be any brighter than, say, a webpage with a white background. It may irritate your eyes a bit (especially if you're watching in a dark room), but it won't do the damage that a welding arc would do in person. And as @pindustries8836 mentioned, the dangerous UV will be absent.
