    Smaller projects that bring you joy are motivational for tackling the bigger ones. Projects and time with friends. A good balance!

    I am so impressed with your skills, Phil! Anyone else (me) would have just chucked the fire pit and bought new. Can't wait to see the newly refubished pit. I have no doubt it will look brand new.

    Putting two or three inches of sand in the bottom of your outdoor fire pits will help stop the corrosion. Make sure you keep it covered, the rain and ashes are corrosive .❤

    oh... I love it... your log burner is gonna be just lovely!!!! I am also betting you have a clever idea for having a wood/log boot like thingie on the terrace so you don't have to go and bring in wood and then miss a beautiful sit out in the evening.

    I would drill some holes in the bottom of that pan one for air circulation. You might want to do holes on the side also. And for water drainage.

    A great idea about the fire pit You are very skilled which obviously means that you are able to carry out so many tasks around your wonderful home

    Your patio area on the side of your home is really beautiful. I can just imagine sitting there and watching the water flow past. It's good to see you finding the motivation to get all of these things done before the last minute. We are all guilty of doing that at some point.

    Hi Phil~ Beautiful sunny day... that always lifts my spirits and motivation, too. Spring has definitely sprung in your neck of the woods. I'm looking forward to it coming where I live. You have so many lovely blooming flowers, shrubs, and trees to bring your château more to life. Your videos are so fascinating to me because you have so many many skills and talents. I love that you not only have the skills but also the motivation to take something most people would just chuck and transform it to function better than when brand new! I'm a grandmother, and I came from a long line of family who saw value in fixing or repurposing items that wore out their first purpose. Too many people treat everything as disposable and fill up their backyards, the landfills, or even worse our rivers and oceans with their discarded junk. It really is treu that "One man's junk is anothe one's treasure!" I some missed this vlog earlier, so I've already seen your fabulous finished firepit project in place on your terrace. Bravo! I have a son-in-law like you... a good man, a good friend, a hard worker & he can fix or build anything. My daughter is very blessed. Thanks for sharing your Château Life, talents, and challenges so frankly on UA-cam!

    The flowers are so beautiful and the sounds of the birds singing really is wonderful in fact idyllic. You know Phil I think you are being to hard on yourself. It’s good work you have done in rebuilding the fire pit. I’m pleased you stopped when you did as seeing people and being out with them and having a good time is important for you to do too. They say ‘Rome wasn’t built in a day’ so I know you will keep on working at it and you will eventually have it done. Thank you. May you please take care and stay safe. Louisa. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩

    Hi Philip, first thank you for taking your welding project to the shop to work on it. I'm wondering if you can do Billy a small favor, ring him up 4:08 and explain why it's a bad idea to do metal grinding and metal welding inside a 120 year old wood structure building. Hinde sight is 20 20 but by then it's too late. Loving the daily vlogs. I watch every new video.

    @jackiesaylor2487 2 місяці тому +3

    Love the new firepit. But shouldn't you have air holes on the sides (tkepp the fireburning), and a few water drain holes on the bottom so it doesn't hold water and rust away again. (Just helpful hints)

  • @happygrandma5637
    @happygrandma5637 2 місяці тому

    I live in WI USA. Thursday pm Into Friday am we received about 2 inches of snow. Its so nice to see daffodils. The extra holes in the sides are for air flow. If you put the wheels on a rod you can use them for exercise equipment.. You deserve a sit down and a drink. Have a good weekend.
