- Hey, My name is Tom. I don't know about you but I find myself wanting to DO everything myself. I consider myself a Jack Of All Trades. Master of none. What you'll find here will be anything from building or fixing cars or trucks, building or remodeling projects and everything in between. I get myself into some pretty interesting situations.
I'd love it if you subscribed so we can stay in touch... You might even learn something. I know I will!
Thank you for watching!!

Me too 😂
Me too! 😊
Same here!!
And me....
Me too!
I enjoy seeing the process of your projects. It also makes me happy to see your kids helping and learning. Great job Tom and Dawn!
And this is how we call right parenting! These kids have done a fantastic job and the memories created are the most important to transfer to their own families. Fantastic kids.👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤
I own a septic system and the soil is clay and shale. Where I live, the underground springs would likely fill up the drain field. The ground does not perk well, so the sand mounds are tall here. In my opinion. On the plus side, they are Great for sledding!
Mound systems: rural lake properties use them around here. My crude understanding from hearing people talk about them, is that the mound is designed so that the liquid is up near the surface allowing the water to evaporate up through the soil rather than drain down into the ground. There's usually a barrier under the pipes to keep the liquid from draining down. For places with clay soil or high water tables they need the water to evaporate up otherwise it may pool somewhere on the surface which isn't sanitary. Solids stay trapped in the tanks so it's just liquid in the mound leach field.
I read through all the comments just to get to the septic tank answer! Thank you! 😄
Same,
That makes three of us reading, trying to learn something. Oh the tidbits of knowledge we seek and hold onto. Thanks for the wonderful description.
I am #4...I thought the septic was related to liquid getting into the water table, but I appreciate the details.
Both country homes I've lived in had septic fields that failed. I swore I'd never live in the country again. .But now I'm thinking they were never installed properly. We had only one septic tank with 5 or 6 lines. My entire backyard was a septic field. I sincerely think you will be good for a very long time. It was around 10 thousand dollars. I can't even begin to think how much it is today.
Your children are prepared with fabulous life skills. Good on them, good on you!
Great progress! Wallpaper border-- SOO glad you removed it. Hope you cleaned the glue off REALLY well and/or lightly sanded or primed. Ask me how I know....
Watching the kids paint the basement and house was awesome. Seeing that time lapse transformation it's so satisfying! Completely new basement!
And the memories they'll have helping get it set up is great!
Well done, kiddos!!!
The lessons you're teaching your children are invaluable. They are going to have so much useful knowledge. Great job dad!
Are you sure this is rusty judgment's channel? Everything's going so smoothly!
I love watching the progress on all your projects! Plus the kids were great and so helpful!! You’re a blessed man Tom!
Agreed!!
Gage has gotten so big! I thought it wasCorbin! Corbin is getting tall too! Great the kids are helping you! It is all looking so good!
I thought the same thing!
I watch you and Dawn’s channels every week. When the heck did Maggie and Gage get so tall? All of the kids are rockstars!! Corbin is a good leader too. Congratulations on your ongoing results. Go, go , go!
So fun and exciting to see the progress and seeing all the kids pitch in to help get these properties ready for rental. You go Adelyn, Maggie, Corbin, and Gage. I am so proud of you and so thankful that you have such great parents who are willing to teach you these different skills. I am sure Dawn was helping out also. Thanks Tom for your channel and sharing your projects with us. I am excited for you.
Awesome progress! You have the best kids. So good for them to be learning skills that they can use in the future, for themselves and to make money. And it’s great to hear you praise their work. Not just to us, but for them to hear. 👍🏻😊
Pam here….Totally amazed at the level of complexity you have taken on, this farmhouse is going to be spectacular!!
Tom, you are wonderful to teach us along the way! You are PHENOMENAL, truly!
Your children are awesome! The apples don’t fall far from the tree.
What a great job family ! How many of the kids at youth group spent the day renovating rental property? Entrepreneurs in the making !
I'm on awe of your children! I can barely get my grandkids to carry out the garbage or take their dishes to the sink.
Thanks for teaching your children a work ethic! I had almost lost my hope for the upcoming generation. Thank you, thank you!
Your kids are so cool. I hope they like what they're doing because it's all skills for a lifetime. Love their smiles.
I am so impressed with how you are teaching work ethic to your children. God bless you all
Your kids are spectacular helpers, most kids love to paint for 3 minutes and then they're bored and want to go home. That's a serious looking septic system, seriously expensive too I bet.
Amazing!!!! You have such great helpers!!!! Corbin is an amazing painter. I hope they all 4 got some ice cream or watermelon after all that hard work. You deserved some too.❤🙏 Have a great week! Your friend in SC, Jane
I love it when a plan comes together!😂
Painting everything really does make a world of difference!
Tom, seeing you smile so big as you watch the progress from your subcontractors reminds me of my big smile on the days my housekeeper comes! 😂 Not entirely the same concept, but sometimes it just feels so refreshing to see projects move along without my effort being involved! The houses are looking really good and the finish line is definitely in sight!! So fun to meet you last weekend!!!!
-Melissa
You all are really moving along. The kids are doing a bang up job. They sure are great kids and talented actually. They tend to paint better than some adults I know.
Fridays are my favorite UA-cam days because Tom will be posting. Todays was especially good and explained how to fix a tire. A million men out here need to know how to do that and at least 10,000 women will now possibly attempt it after seeing this. Can’t wait till you get the farmhouse rented! We love the Maddens and the Kokkus!!!
Nothing better than involving entire family in a project that will benefit entire family!
I live in Michigan and we have those raised septic systems. I always wondered why the mound works couldn't be underground as well. I sure love your videos!
The transformation on the houses are awesome. And the kids are great, you and Dawn are raising great kids!
I think it's awesome the kids are all working along side of you. They are learning such valuable life skills.
Love the progress you are making, the house looks so much brighter painted and the basement floor is such an improvement. Well done to your kids for putting in such awesome hard work.
I love how you teach your kids. Reminds me of growing up on our family farm
WHOOT! WHOOT! I'm excited for y'all getting the farm house almost ready!! Also, it has to feel good getting the "cracked house" set for the winter phase of working inside! Way to Tom & kiddos!!
What great kids! I mean, maybe they had no choice, but they were working hard and doing a great job!
Once again amazed at the tasks your children are able to do! I do not enjoy painting. These kids make it look so easy and like such fun! Good job Tom and Dawn!
So interesting and exciting!, only wish the videos were longer. You guys are amazing, always look forward to Friday!
Nice to see everything coming together for you. Lots of hard work on your part for sure. The kids are such great helpers and it’s easy to see you appreciate them!
Your kids are amazing, and I love seeing you teaching them life skills! ❤
Your kids are awesome! They did such a great job!!!
My kids always loved manual labor like this. 😂 Making beds, taking out garbage and washing dishes was a big fat NO! 😢
Yup my kids are all in for cleaning but picking up requires a bit more encouragement
I could not love this any more! I'm so impressed and so happy for y'all! What awesome kids! What a fabulous family! Great job all of you!
That is SO great what all you are teaching your children. They work so well together. Not sure how you get so much done and how you know how to do everything. I enjoy seeing all your projects and what you get done every day.
I'm stunned you were caught without a tape measure! 😉
Tom what you described and asked why you can't----- that is exactly how our system works. We have had the system for 60+ years with one failure of the drain field which was blown out and a second drain field placed right next to the original. Now both drain fields are fully functional. We switch between the 2 "just because". Our soil is sandy with the lake ground water at 4 feet.
From my experience with septic systems, if you have clay soil that does not pass a perc test, and you put a drain field below ground, the system will fail and flood the ground around the tanks with sewer water which will not drain off. With the mound, the fluid goes into sand, gravel, etc., that will contain it. We had to have a mound system for that reason.
I love that you have your kids helping. So many kids nowadays think life is only about playing and having fun. Yours will grow up to have a great work ethic. They will go far in life!
We referred to our septic mound as, Mount Poop!
So much progress ! Everything is coming together nicely. Tom it must make you feel so good seeing your labour of love turning out so well. You and Dawn have great kids to work that hard for those many days, as I'm sure they'd rather be doing other things. They're going to grow up with a great work ethic. Both houses are looking so nice
You have some hard working kids. They are amazing and a tribute to you and Dawn.
Hahaha!!!! I love that you have great workers!
Everything is looking amazing!!! Great work, all of you!!!
All the kids did an excellent job!!!! Make sure you tell them how proud you are of them!!
I love that your kids are all learning to clean, prep, and paint! What a great little work crew!
Yes, you do not want to paint over border or wallpaper ever! I made that mistake once and it haunted me for years.
Wallpaper gets painted over all the time in our country, and is fine , not boarders though
🌻 It’s so exciting to see this project progress. In Pennsylvania, septic systems have a mound too…. I don’t know why. Your kids are remarkable helpers. They deserve a lot of credit, and you and Dawn deserve a lot of credit for nurturing them and praising their work. I hope they get “shop class” credit for this in their home schooling.📚📚📚
Amazing crew of painters!
🩷🩷💙💙
Yes they are!
Make sure you keep an extra lift station pump on hand. We have gone through several in the 20 years we have lived in our home. They always set off the alarm on a weekend or holiday and it takes several days to get a new one. We learned to have one here and buy a new one as soon as that one is installed.
Wow corbin is doing a great job!
Congrats to the kids for their hard work. They did great.
Yay! Progress!
I love to see your kids help you with the projects. I started helping my parents with their rental properties when I was 14 years old and 39 years later I still love painting and home projects. They will have a strong work ethic.
I'm glad you've decided to hire out a bunch of this work. So satisfying for you and it will keep your UA-cam videos moving along faster. All this would have taken you probably two years. Move on to the fun parts of hunting for the next project, designing, and doing the finishing touches.
Your kids are awesome and have a fantastic work ethic, just like their dad and mom !
Progress is happening!
Oh my goodness ! I am getting an education ! Thanks Tom & family .
Love how everyone is involved. 😊
You can never leave if you want something done.
I love that you have such good assistants. Farmhouse is looking really nice. Slowly, but surely! Nice to see your progress. Thanks for taking us along!
So much progress this week, it’s great the kiddos help thanks for sharing these projects I love seeing the transformations have great weekend 😊
Your growing fast children are knocking it out👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Not sure Tom, looks like child labor to me, can I borrow them? 😉 Seriously paint makes a big difference and kids love to help👍
Kids terrific helpers they did a fantastic job congratulations 🎊🥳❤️
Things are looking up Tom! Great job Kids!!
amazing kids, boy do they deserve a big treat! Amazing work ethic especially in such terrible heat and humidity!
And, the kids are learning skills they’ll use for a lifetime!
I don't know, Tom, but here in FL my whole septic system is above the level of the yard and mounded. We also have a lift station, which the pump when out about 1.5 yrs after it was finished. However, we have also issues with power outages and surges.
I hope someone answers your question about the mounds because I’ve always wondered the same thing and don’t understand it at all. Plus does that mean the system don’t work when the power is off?
I'm hoping someone with more knowledge answers these questions, but this is what I think I remember from 30 years ago. No power will mean waste water will not go out to the septic tank, but the reason for the 3 tanks is partly that they can hold a lot when needed. When our lift pump got hit by lightning, suddenly our drains didn't work until it was figured out and fixed. I'm not sure, but I think the mounds vs. underground is determined by the ground permeability in the area and the depth of the water table. If the water table is 200 feet down with lots of sand and gravel in the dirt layers, it acts as a natural filter.When we had a new well dug, they first hit water at 11 feet, but rules say the well has to be at least 33 feet deep to limit ground water contamination. At 33 feet we hit a vein of clay. Our well ended up at 39 feet. Our septic tank pumped up hill on the other side of the property to a drain field (so maybe 200 or so feet apart?).
I am so glad You are here !
A Wisconsin Mound system is used when you have high groundwater. There is a minimum vertical separation to the groundwater that is involved. Also you have better evaporation to the surface having a mound. There is a minimum vertical separation to a limiting layer such as shrink swell clay or a rock ledge.
How amazing are your 4 kids, they have amazing teachers ❤
A lot going on. Glad to see relief on your face. Hang in there. Looking good!
Holy cow! Gage is really doing a great job too!
It´s so wonderful how you involve the kids, the life skills theys are getting. Super inspirering!
YEA Tom's back another video... really like your educational videos Tom and God sure blessed you with a Wonderful beautiful family....take care 🙂❤
Thank you
Your helpers are awesome!!!!!!!!!🎉
Here in the UK we do have septic systems that are called ‘soak away’. Everything underground. All farmhouses etc around here use that. No maintenance or emptying needed.
A glorious MN day for a glorious MN future being built one property at a time. I was enchanted seeing the diagram of the septic system and I too would love to hear more about the answer to why there must be a mound and cannot be underground. It is really great that the basement bathroom ended up just where it was designed to be placed.
Very satisfying to feel clean, bright and fresh
Great job kiddos
Those kids are the tidiest painters ever!
Wow! Way to go, Tom and kids!
Congratulations on great cleaning and painting team! Wahoo!
Excellent progress! You have a great crew, Tom. 😊
We live in the eastern middle part of AL where all we have is clay too. Not soil, so we also have to have mounds. Which they didn't use to have. The mound on the property we improved next to us had to have a mound like 3 ft high. Not useful for anything. You have to drive around it. We also had to have an extra drain field put in on the property to be able to drain excess rain water. So if you ever get an answer Tom, let us know. Glad all is coming together for y'all before winter sets in. ... Glenda
Wow, things are really moving now. I know you must be happy. Great job!😊
Living your best life! Great meaningful work, teaching your kids and teaming with Dawn. I wish you continued success and joy. Great work and love the videos.
