      I have lived in Ukraine for several years before the Russian war of Genocide of Ukraine and roman is a typical Ukrainian. with one difference, I never seen him drinking Vodka as so many Ukrainians enjoy or Kagor or Mead (Medovukha, меду́ха) wine. Kagor is a very sweet red wine and Mead is Honey wine.

    Cole, after 23 years of business as a window coverings specialist, I have seen my share of stadium style movie theater rooms in high end houses. In every single one of them, there was always a layer of dust on everything from lack of the room being used. Not once did I hear someone say ,”We use this every WEEK!” They are a huge waste of time and money. That being said, you will have a very swanky tornado shelter when it’s finished.

OR.. you could build your own movie room, have a standing invitation to family and friends to use the movie room to watch movies/shows. Make it into a social gathering place where the entire great family can hang out and be entertained.

      Thats what he is doing. Yes, he is making the one step but thats just so he doesnt have to remove or dig right next to his existing footer. He will pour most of the theatre floor flat after the initial step and build the platform for the seating out of wood. At least thats what he told us in the last video.

      If flooding is an issue in that area I guess. You could always put in a one-way valve.

My grandma had to get this done at her house several years ago by digging up her front lawn.

    Hi Cole, my wife and I love your approach to every task needed for your restoration.
    With a background in laying gas lines for residential and commercial construction . I was wondering if you might considered laying a 1" - 3/4" black (underground) gas pipe instead of a smaller diameter copper gas line. The black iron pipe will reduce the risk of being punctured or cracked. The black gas line would run from the propane tank to the house with a riser coming out of the ground near the house so you can directly connect the gas regulator.

    • @johnunsicker7440
      @johnunsicker7440 2 місяці тому

      You can't bury black pipe unless it is coated in rust protection. The copper line is fine been doing it for a long time. There copper lines that been in the ground 50 years and not a single one of the leak.

    Cole you better put socks over your pipe or otherwise the dirt/ clay will seal the perforated pipe holes 🕳️ in time and water will never get in them. So they make pipe socks that's material you slide over those pipes which prevent the holes in pipe from being clogged and sealed with dirt.
    Also be sure you put a cage cap or screen wire over the end of your drain pipe or rodent's or other wild life will build nests & burrow in the pipe and stop it up ! So definitely add a screen wire cap over the end to keep critters out of your drain pipe or otherwise it's useless if they dam up the insides of it .

Just disconnect it at both ends and drag it out of the ground or abandon it. Your new addition is going to be 50-75 feet closer to your tank anyway. This has been grinding on me for several videos now.

      I'm in Tennessee, south middle TN to be exact. I was thinking he'd have to use TNT to blow some boulders where I am. Tons of them here and if you try and dig as much as Cole's doing, you'd have to start blasting.

    I haven't been to the Iowa State Fair in 100 years, I think. Okay, maybe not quite that long ago, but it's been a while. My father actually attended Drake University in Des Moines when he first got out of the Navy at the end of WWII. Later, he was the last graduating class of State College of Iowa at Cedar Falls, which is now University of Northern Iowa.
    Drake is, of course, home to the Drake Relays, which started in 1910, and is one of the most prestigious track-and-field events in the United States. Women's events were first held at Drake in 1961, and the list of Olympic gold medalists who have participated in the relays reads like a Who's Who of world-class athletes.

    I have a spade and it's my favorite tool in the shed as well. It is all one piece of metal, from the handle to the bottom of the spade. It has to be the strongest tool too because I always break the heads off of shovels when the handles are made of wood. They can never keep up with what I can scoop.

    I am still trying to figure out why Cole wants to put his theater room in the basement. Who wants to go in the basement to watch a movie in a subterranean room? Is that the only place that was available? On the bright side, I guess it could also be used as a tornado bunker, and if he hooked it up to batteries, they could be watching movies while all their neighbors are shaking in terror.

    I hope you realize that the water will drain off at its current Underground Level, but if you have a period of flooding like you did earlier in the year, the water will backflow and actually come up the pipe so the last stretch should have a backflow preventer or you might have nothing but a swimming pool in your basement.

      You forget that he has like 7 more feet of fall to get to the creek So the creek would have to come up 7 feet plus to get water in the basement. Now if the creek is a flowing creek all you have to do is place the outlet of the tile so the creek is flowing across it creating a vacuum and water will not go in the tile.
