Building the Shop - Part 38 - Having Our Milled Lumber Grading
In this episode, "Building the Shop - Part 38 - Having Our Milled Lumber Grading" we got all or lumber graded.
The process was smooth and fast.
My only complaint is that I should have had more lumber cut just to fill the time!
If you do this, cut a few hundred boards to have graded as the process only take a few seconds per board and there is a daily minimum charge so you might as well get your money's worth.
Until the next one, keep Living the Northern Life!

Removal of the coolant reservoir made the job easier for replacement. The coolant take comes out by lifting off the mounting brackets. No tool required.
Nice work Andrew.
Thanks Keith!!!
thank god I lived to retire from being . that's hard work , the body was not ment to endure daily.
I have enjoyed it but it’s hard work for sure! Thanks for watching and commenting! Andrew
Good job
Thank you!
Far too much talking in this venture.
I thought so too 😊 Andrew
just found you, yes I'm a new sub
Thanks for your support Bob! Andrew
My 2017 Chevy Impala is a piece of cake compared to this.
Absolutely.
You do a really good job
Thank you! Andrew
Smh this was like watching a dog hump a football . . . the coolant supply easily slips off.
Interesting so you didn't have to take of that big silver metal piece to the right of it. The guy told me yesterday while looking over the skidoo that I would have to take that whole piece of to get to the battery but it appears you just removed that black piece underneath? Is that correct? Thanks :)
Neat found it!
so strange in a good way when I went yesterday to look at the skidoo before deciding to buy it he also has the very same skidoo you have sitting beside the 600ace! so weird! lol same color everything I think he said it was an 80 or 81 year.
do you have a video on taking the battery out? :)
Yes this is the same ski-doo! :) I appreciate these videos!
How long does a track usually last?
I just bought a 2016 skidoo just like this one! Tell me what do you think of this ski-doo. Mine has only 3500 miles on it mint condition. Just hope we get snow this year now! I am in New Brunswick Canada :) I would be very interested to know your honest opinion on this skidoo :)
I replaced the sensor and it's still not running right and then shuts off and that over heating message on the guages comes back on again. I did notice one of the two wires on theback of the connector was off so I pushed it back in and I connected it back to the sensor. What do I do next? Do you think the problem is with the connector? I need some help.
Do you have an OBD2 unit that can reset the error code?
@LivingtheNorthernLife I reset it but it came back. Let me explain. I replaced the sensor and when I was going to place back the connector I noticed one of the two wires in the back had been pulled out. I don't know If I did that when I was trying to remove the connector from the sensor. I don't know if that could've been the original problem or if I did that. We, ll I peeled back the plastic, twisted the copper wires and made it pointy. Then I pushed into the tiny hole in the back of the connector and pulled back a little to make sure was secure in there. Then I put back everything and Like I said I reset the code and started the engine. I start ok the a couple of seconds after that it started rattling and that code came back and it started sputtering and when I pressed on the gas it turned off. First thing I thought to myself is that the connector is bad. Well I ordered it and I thought it was going to arrive today but it wasn't in my mailbox. Maybe it will get here tomorrow. Well, when I get it I'm going to splice it and connect it to the sensor and see if that was the solution. I will keep you posted. Do you have anything in mind something else it could other than what I've done?
you had the issue of no heat but was there a issue with your engine fan running at high speed?
I had to change the water pump but my fan still runs at high speed
@@LivingtheNorthernLife thats my current battle with my 5.0L i replaced my thermostat and that fan is still running at high speed
Sir, with all due respect, your videos are too short for me to subscribe, 27 minutes minimum.
I'm sorry you find the videos too short. I will try to include more detail in future videos. Thanks for watching and Commenting! Andrew
Nice videos, Andrew, but time to speed project Overkill up. Sorry
Thanks for your feedback. We are doing this normally on a Saturday and we've been able to do this debit free up to this point which is important to us. We are capturing all the work that we did and for the past 2 weeks we haven't been able to get back to this at all due to poor weather. I normally work on this on Saturdays and now I'm trying to get there after work as well but I have to drive an hour and can only work for about an hour before the sun is gone. Our schedule was to release video's only on Sunday mornings but have sped that up and now release on Wednesday's at 6pm and Sunday mornings at 5:30am. We have very little to record during our winter months so producing content is much more difficult which is way we have a release schedule. Hopefully we can keep you as a subscriber and if you're not a subscriber we hope that you would subscribe to our channel. Thanks for watching and commenting. Andrew

Thank you for the information
Thanks for watching and commenting! Andrew
Looks great Andrew. Nice work my friend
Thanks Keith! It’s a big job that’s for sure!
I'm replacing the lows in our '17 Escape for the second time tomorrow. I used the same Phillips bulbs as the video author the last time since I've usually had much better luck with them then the OE Sylvanias. The Phipps 9005 bulbs have been a terrible choice with very little low beam light. I'm going back to the Sylvanias as they, according to the Rock Auto site are a Ford 'special' - which I doubt but they cannot be any worse. I can hardly wait to do the lights in my '19 F150 - NOT!
I’m actually going to release a video soon about the passenger side headlight again about my experience and how i FINALLY fixed the issue… I’m holding off because i want to give my solution more time to prove itself… But after 3 months, so far so good.
Whoever engineered this is a moron
Throw a new 12.0 forged on it
Yes I think i need to upgrade my batteries to some Forge batteries.
I had the same issue. I have almost no feeling in my left hand from a car accident where I needed a fusion in my neck. So I have nerve damage on the left side of my body .When it gets cold my hand freezes up an won’t do anything I had to go inside the car for heat every 15 minutes And it was cold out. It must’ve took me four hours and 10° weather to replace that bulb on the passenger side. Luckily, I ran into a video that showed popping off the reservoir helped give me more room and I was able to finish the light.
You can also disconnect the cable from the bulb and take the bulb out. We could only undo the front clip from the reservoir which does help. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! Andrew
Are you planning to put horizontal insulation around the perimeter or to keep like this with thermal bridge between footing and soil outside?
Hi @andreycham4797, Yes, we are cutting and placing them at the 4:52 of the video. Just a heads up that concrete does not stick to the Amvic Silverboard that we used. It might stick to insulation that doesn't have the "tinfoll coating" on it. Thanks for watching and commenting! Andrew
@LivingtheNorthernLife there is no any horizontal insulation at 4.52. You are placing vertical insulation there, which would be a few inches deep into dirt. Footing is setting on dirt, which creates a thermal bridge around the building
@@andreycham4797 Yes sorry... you are correct. The engineered draws didn't ahve it so I didn't think I could do it and I never asked. I wish I had put insulation in the footings as well. When I went back and looked at a bunch of their pictures they had online, they have insulation in their footings... I was pretty disappointed after seeing it. Andrew
really confusing since you keep switching back and forth in your time line
hmmmm... I don't see any jump in timelines but after we put all the insulation in the center and tape it we go back and cut 18" panels to complete the form walls. We used the insulation panels on the outside wall as well. Maybe this is what you're refering to? Thanks for watching and commenting. Andrew
hope nobody gets poison ivy, its all over the ground there
No poison ivy here but there are a bunch of small alders growing that look similar. Either way, none of us have gotten itchy from it and we're in there all the time. Thanks for watching and commenting. Andrew
why did you lay a moisture barrier over the insulation is also moister barrier so now you will trap moisture between the poly and the insulation.
Curious as well, had some ideas as to why. But curious to know the reason or choice made.
Hi @Screamingpinesfarm, There should be no space between the poly and the eps. I'm assuming that there are holes all over the poly as we were walking on it and rebar ties poking holes in it. It used less then half the tape to do it this way. I would have put EPS in the footing as well but the engineering company didn't have it in the drawing but did have the poly with the EPS in their drawing. Not sure this helps but this is what we did. Thanks Andrew

Great video, Living the Northern Life. Looking forward to seeing more content from you. I smashed the thumbs up button on your upload. Keep up the fantastic work! The way you explained the knot technique was really insightful. Have you considered sharing more tips on managing construction tasks effectively in such warm weather?
Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you watching the video! All I can suggest is lots of water and a wide brimmed hat. We also wear the long sheeve shirts to keep the sun and the bugs off of us. Andrew
Yes get the reservoir out of the way. The front clip will slide up easily but not the back. I took the front loose first then used a long, thin pry bar and, using the adjacent motor mount bracket as a fulcrum, gently pushed upwards (on the back connection) while rocking reservoir back and forth with my other hand... it popped right up, easy peasey. I can not imagine trying to do the passenger side without getting the reservoir out of the way first.
I can only seem to get the front clip off and move it just enough to get in there. Andrew
@@LivingtheNorthernLife To get back off you've got to rock it back and forth and wiggle it off (while applying upwards pressure on the back bracket)
You must have some heavy equipment to go in your shop if you have this much underlayment. Metalworking stuff?
Future proofing but we will have heavy equipment on the property for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting! Andrew
@@LivingtheNorthernLife I admit, I sometimes dream of owing those giant mills from the early 20th century :) You'd definitely need a lot of support for those!
Are you just cranking the carbides down ? No torque specs.
We just tightened them down. They have a nylon locking nut.
It’s a pain I see I have to change mine as well and it is the passenger side one as well.
It’s the most fun. Try disconnecting the cable and then remove the bulb. Thanks Andrew
So glad I have had time to have a good catch up hope your well 👍 😊
Thanks my Friend! I see you guys are keeping up with the good work as well! Thanks for the years of support! It sure means alot! Andrew
I'm sure your mom will be pleased to know how well her little shovel is doing! And you. That drill auger is pretty cool.

Looking great Andrew. Nice work my friend
Thanks Keith 👍 It's coming along that's for sure. Andrew
My mother in law has one of these and not only has the navigation/entertainment computer went to complete shit. Its blowing headlights every six months. Meanwhile my 24year old truck has had the same bulbs for about 7 years when i only changed them because i went with aftermarket headlights so i put new bulbs in them. And my 74 stingray vette has had the same bulbs since the early 90's. It amazes me how much worse the new stuff is.. its such a shame.
I totally agree with you and yet it's still not the worst car we've ever owned. That would be a 1997 Dodge Intrepid. The absolute worst car we've ever owned by far. Thanks for watching and commenting! Andrew
Thanks for this video. Its the only one i could find with this generation of Ford using a hydraulic steering system.👏👍
Thanks!
Sure wasn’t informative!
Sorry to hear that. Do you have R-1234 in your AC? This video isn’t about a how to, only to show the connection is different from others. What information were you looking for? Andrew
Is this the 2.0? I just had this issue on a 2019. Out of nowhere it gave me the overheat warning and the car went into limp mode. I parked it for 30 mins or more and the temperature gauge would not move off hot. I had a code reader so I thought maybe if I clear the code it will move the gauge back to normal and lo and behold that’s what happened! I would have needed a tow truck if I did not have the scan tool. I’m really beginning to hate this vehicle and I think it’s going to turn into a money pit. It is so hard to work on because of how everything is crammed in there. It’s the worst Ford I have ever owned. I’ve been driving Fords all my life and I’m thinking I should switch brands but I have a feeling that everything these days is made similar to this. They have it designed such that most people have no other choice but go to the dealer. A parts guy at the dealer told me that his buddy had to change headlight bulbs on a Focus and it was going to cost like $700-800 to do it as the entire front bumper has to come off just to do that. The guy did it himself and it took him the entire weekend to get it done! Manufacturers should not be allowed to do this crap!
We have a 1.5L. This vehicle is really terrible. We are considering, for the first time, switching to a Toyota. I agree with everything you said. We have replaced the passenger side low beam bulb 4x now. We’re going to try LED’s to see if that “fixes” the issue but WOW! What a lemon.
@@newfie-dean5803 It's all done for money making. I'll bet you dealers lobby the big corporation to convince the to make it almost impossible for the lau perspn to fix their own car. Well, let me tell you what I've done so far and you know now that you mention it. I never did get try erasing the code before I started working on it. Maybe I could've erased the code. Maybe not. Look this is what I've done so far. I reset it but it came back. Let me explain. I replaced the sensor and when I was going to place back the connector I noticed one of the two wires in the back had been pulled out.

@@alfonsoramos5597 I had that issue and so many other drivability problems for about 2 months. Random codes, serious power loss, etc. Then all of a sudden everything fixed itself. I did replace the T-bolt that connects the positive battery cable and I did notice the vacuum boost pump connection seemed a bit loose so I wiggled that around a bit. I would not be surprised if Ford did something to the car through the FordPass app to try to force me into the dealer. In today’s world, this could happen. It’s been over 3 months and all has been good since. It’s great when a car fixes itself!
Looks great ready for forms soon keep moving forward
Thank you! We are getting much closer to pouring the slab. It’s been a great journey that’s for sure.
Might want to topoff the coolant tank
Sure did. But this video was almost 4 years ago.
I know this is random but i Have question Andrew , i watched your video to clean out /replace my nevian flow sensor . I followed instructions but now my flow sensor is leaking out the bottom ? I did replace the o ring , but maybe i used the wrong size or should i be using a regular rubber washer on that part ? I do have the pipe clip on , but it’s still seeping out ? Any suggestions ? I only rinsed the old one out and put that back on. My new one won’t be here for another week . Thought it would hold out until then . 🫤
I can only offer you my opinion but I would look for a crack in it, it could be worn out or not put back correctly. The new one has to be the exact size or it won’t fit correctly. I replaced mine a year or two prior buy i ordered the whole O-Ring kit for mine. They were all labeled and was easy to get the correct one. Andrew
