    Need the feeder higher or you'll have a lot of deer, which is cool too, but fewer squirrels! lol. Love your videos.

    Hi from the UK these Chinese diggers look pretty good there's a few over hare at a good price point and they have yanmar dissels on the bigger stuff and briggs and Kohler on smaller stuff so good engine's and good prices it's a win win for people who don't use them every day 👍

    While I appreciate your patriotism if your going to leave the flag up during hours of darkness it should be lit. They make some good inexpensive solar lights for that purpose. I’m sure you’ll be pouring more footings in the future; Sonotubes would probably save you some work and concrete, I think your depth only needs to be below the frost line. The diagonal measurement is irrelevant when check for square it only needs to be the same in both directions; looks like you got it right in the end. You are one hard working dude that’s for sure.

      I actually forgot about putting a light on it at night.
      I thought about sonotubes but they only had 12” tubes in stock and that seemed to small.
      I’d do some things different when it comes to forms next time

    Did you consider sonotubes? - they would have saved you the hassle of shuttering and a lot of readymix - still your way works and that is the main thing. Best wishes from the uk😊
