    I think ladly and the cat see those baby chicks quite differently the cat sees dinner Ladly sees something to take care of. Good timing on the rain. The posthole digger is a real back saver.😊

    who needs a gym when you have projects. having a tractor and correct accessories makes things so much easier and allows building to plan, how can you do projects without the supervision of your daughter and her two assistants? what a beautiful family job to look back on. The way that your family help on these days either setting up for the project with earthmoving by croc's bro or cooking for you by captain croc's mom is amazing.

    • @CajunCountryLivin

We've always had a division of labor at our house. She doesn't mess with my outside work@@!!!!!

  • @dewanes3180
    @dewanes3180 Рік тому +1

    Hey just curious if ya poured concrete down the pipe? Was thinking if ya didn't would water stand in them causing them to rust out quicker? Looking forward to the build. 😁

    • @CajunCountryLivin
      @CajunCountryLivin  Рік тому +1

      We did not since we are going to be welding on them soon. We will be covering the tops up too! 😁

  • @danielirvin
    @danielirvin Рік тому +1

    I commented on your last video about this,,, I see you have good reinforcement at the corners. If you are going to place the 2nd level of containers 90 degrees to the first, they also need direct corner support. The roof channels cannot support the weight of a container sitting across it. Am anxiously waiting to see how the supports will be added.
    Other than this, I like the shop concept. I do enjoy your videos. Thanks!

  • @ScrewThisGlueThat
    @ScrewThisGlueThat Рік тому +1

    Lidia and Jim, I sure wish you would have at least placed about 8 inches of concrete in the bottom of those holes. While the posts are rough and provide a good bit of resistance, punching shear is a real possibility. At the least a rebar through each post would go a long way to prevent the risk of punching shear. Love the channel

    • @CajunCountryLivin
      @CajunCountryLivin  Рік тому +2

      Hi! The pipe isn’t going to be holding the container. The containers will sit on the concrete pad, so the weight will be on the slab. The pipe will be cut off with the concrete pad and will have a place welded to it just in case we have a bad hurricane or bad weather, the containers can’t move.
