Great job on the septic Al. As a note from personal experience, flag and stake off your septic and drainfield areas. There is something about a new septic area that is just a calling card for cement trucks and other contractor equipment to run over them. Flagging it off is cheap insurance when you're moving fast pouring concrete.
You need to learn how to put a chamfer on the end of the pipe. The square cut end is making it hard to insert the pipe into the rubber seal. A good chamfer on the end of the pipe and it will slide in with no problem.
effin a dave
Gina needs to get some seat time in all the equipment. There's no reason she can't be a skilled operator. Daughters can run farm and construction equipment too. Not only will it move the work along faster to have more operators, but there will be new people to tune in to see it. Who's with me here? Show some love. 👍
Get the old hose repaired as a spare. Also get a clean tarp in the tool kit so when you are working you are not dragging stuff through the dirt and if you drop anything you can find it 👍
I agree. It wouldn't hurt to have a long spare hose and some extra fittings so you can go right back to work.
Great idea James T.
Какие вы молодцы ! Своими руками делаете !!! Успехов Вам Всем !!!
Hello Lumnah family and friends!! Hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday!
Morning coffee with my favorite homestead family
Definitely doing pipe joins better, glad to see you took that other bloke's advice from last week when they told you to twist the pipes to spread the glue inside as you join them. You've nearly got the hang of all that now. Be well.
👍🇦🇺
Official from plumbers school, its bad to twist as joining. Moves glue out of the pipe. Just apply well and push together.
This has be up (in the UK) for 35 minutes and you have 4.5k views with 113 comments, way to go my friend.
Al, you just never cease to amaze me. You can do anything you set your mind to. Beautiful to behold your work.
Hello Julie how you doing
That excavator has more than paid for itself! You are a lucky man. My wife claims a shovel does not fit her hands. Gina jumps right in and is a real trooper!
Lovely job. We have put in a few septics and at my stage of life hopefully no more. I love the plastic tanks they are so good. Your workmanship team work is beautiful.
Good Morning Al, Gina And Olivia.
Gina is such a good worker. You two certainly work as a great team.
That is one heck of a bow in the bucket of the tractor! I bet @TYM Tractors is sorry for giving him the tractor!
It's a tractor that is ment to work its not glass, the bend in the bucket will not hurt anything except for grading. TYM tractors know if you use it things are going to get hurt. If you want it to stay perfect park it in the front living room and stare at it 🚜
Cheap south Korean steel
Septic system check! On to the next project. Can't wait.
GM Family. Everything is looking good. You have the best channel on you tube. What a great couple you are.
So happy for your family! Can’t wait to start the house build! What an amazing team your are! God bless your family!
Excellent JOB for sure. God's blessings to you all.
Hello how you doing
I cant believe how well you two work together! You picked a great spot for the tiny house! Have a great day!
Have you watched "wild wonderful off grid" now there's a great team build 🙂👍

Good morning Lloyd! Have a wonderful day!
@@samvalentine3206 Hi Sam! Have a good one!
Great job....I know you are glad to see it done
Morning Lumnah's, not hard to tell you were once a mechanic, great job Al. Must feel good the septic is done, now on to bigger and better things. You and Gina make a great team!!!
Al, is there anything you don't know how to do ??? You are such a smart guy !! You and Gina make a great team !!!
Hello how you doing
I ran a 1/4 inch nylon tubing on the inside of my pipe from leach tank to leach field and stubbed/capped each end so i can run hot water through it to thaw if it ever freezes. You with a family prob wont have to worry about it freezing ever but it's something to think about i guess..
Al you are a smart young man. Gina is lucky to have found you and you are lucky to have found Gina you compliment each other.
Good morning 🌞
@Tony Grimes
@Darla Herbst
And everyone else!
Good Morning *tswilborn* !!!!
Your workmanship teamwork is beautiful, which makes you great.
Plenty of rocks for Gina. The pile of clay looked hard to break into even with the TYM. Everything looks really nice you two. It was very interesting to watch you build your own septic system. It has to feel great to have that done and you know where everything is too. You got it done way before the freezing temps so that is a huge bonus. Just backfilling the pipe now. Final grade too! Good save with fixing that hydraulic line. Lots done today. Thanks for this Al and Gina.
Wow!! Is there anything you can't do!!! What a Job!!! Now back to the Slab!!! God Bless and have a Wonderful Week!! ❤⚘😀

I Love watching you two work together as a team . Have a Blessed week :)
All your hard work is really something to behold. Thank heaven you only have to do that once. Take care. God bless.
I have just started following your family's journey. You guys have an amazing story. I'm a 53 year old disabled veteran the property that you guys have been improving and turning into your family farm is Great!
I was trying to do a homestead/shed to house on a few acres or so. It's just the real estate market is kinda "wonky "...... I am able qualified for a VA loan. I am still saving whatever I can to be able to be headed in the right direction to get some land
Great job! Gina & Al looks awesome! So beautiful up there! God bless!
Wow Al and Gina what a lot of work you did so far, locking good 😊 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻respect for the two off you. I learn a lot off the two off you. No mountain too high in your ambitions for the new property
Good morning Lumnah family and everyone else.🍀 Everything is looking good and know that you are happy that the septic field is finally in. Man that was a job. Take care and have a blessed day. ❤️
Good morning Lumnah family ☕️ your determination and positive attitude will finish this project in no time… great job 👍 have a blessed day

Good Evening Everybody from Enniskillen, Ireland.
Hey hey Tony
Evening Ireland
Good morning Tony! ☕️🌅
Howdy Sir Earl Grimes!
Good morning Tony, from rainy London.
So awesome seeing you both working together! Life partners, truly a blessing.
Pro Tip: From another blog I watch. "Duct tape the primer and PVC cement cans to each other. You can move them with one hand. They're less likely to tip over. They're always in the same place."
Great Job you guys!!! Stay blessed!!
Proud of you both and the abilities God has given you. God is great!
You do a good job on everything,well done
Hello beautiful how you doing
Gooooood morning Al & Gina!! 🐓 🐐 🐖
Taper the end of the plastic pipe before inserting it in the bulkhead rubber. I notice you never ream the inside of any plastic pipe you have cut. Those jagged inside pieces will give you clogging problems someday.
Yep
Big stones! Hard work. Finished. Looks great. Thanks for sharing.
Love the shirt Al, that was a pretty scary story from that fellows channel. Amazing how much work you do on your own to make this your future home.
Hello beautiful how you doing
im sure excavation is done by now ,this may help for next time, throw rock on working side allows for faster refilling of trench & better soil control on spoils side. beautiful property
Good morning I like how they color codes the line with different color tape as well you it’s very easy to know where each hose goes
We bought our land in 2004. Soon after we had our excavator dig some test holes. We found that there is not enough topsoil to build a septic system. After a conversation with the State Environmentalist, we started hauling in material. About 60 loads initially. Our septic tank is literally in the center of rock. It took an entire day with a CAT 320 Trackhoe with a 6" hammer to dig that hole. When all was said and done, about 100 loads of material were hauled in. And after 6 years, we still can haul more material to finalize the shape of our land around the house.
Bless you and your family as you build your lives together
Al and Gina, y’all did good on the Septic tank system. Gina you’re learning how to repair hoses on the bobcat, you need to start learning how to drive one as needed now.
Goooooooooo morning Lumnahas!!!!!!!
Gooooood Morning Ray
Howdy Ray!
Good morning Ray ☕️🌅
Good morning Ray have a good one 👍
Hiya Ray!
You are a jack of all trades. Just wonderful videos keep them coming
Hello beautiful how you doing
Great job Al and Gina 😊
Thank you for the video. The project looks great. Have a great day.
I installed septics for 10 years and ya'll have done a good job in my opinion. Nice work!
Everything is coming together Al! Gina is going to have plenty of rocks for her Rock Wall. 👍👏😎
Maybe even some left over to build her deck. 😉 😊
Y’all have so very much I have missed. Another visit to the hospital for a six day stay. I was fighting the respirator, so got a great deal of sleep. Pneumonia in the warm weather is no fun.
Virginia, i hope you feel better soon. I had pneumonia twice, it was awful to feel so tired and weak. Take care. :-)
@@patchurch1677 thank you.
Good morning from WY...really enjoyed watching your progress and looking forward to seeing the adventure...thank you Al & Gina...many blessings!

Gooooood Evening Lumnahs and Peps 👋. Awesome 👏 Job AL & Gina ! 😁👍
Nice to see it covered and done. I think you may need to build it up some more to protect from freezing better.
Great job AL and Gina.
You are a smart guy my friend....Awesome build.....God's peace brothers & sister...!
Gooood morning from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great day!
Hellooo David thanks, you also!!

Good morning Lumnah family, enjoying your progress and the process! Just gotta say, Al, tying the string on your hose was really thinking ahead! See y'all on Thursday.
Good to see you again Al - I have been hospitalized for 22 days so far for Covid after I got the vaccine . I am a paramedic in Tennessee and enjoy watching your videos for years. It’s so good to see you again. I pray things are going good for you guys. I can’t wait to watch your videos again.
Goooood Morning from Traverse City Michigan! Love watching the progress!
Howdy Lori!
Maybe a little late, butI noticed that you cut the pipes square and just clean off the roughness before fitting them. Try to take a course file and slant the outside of the pipe a little before glueing and the pipe will slide in place much more easily. That also goes when pushing a pipe through a rubber grommet as the edge won't catch.
Good Job !!!!!
Ur In D Game Al..........
Gooood morning looking good. Good catch on. That hose.
Good Morning Al and Gina .
Do it right,do it once 👍.
Supporting all on the 500.

Howdy there, Lisa - nice to see you!
@@samvalentine3206 hi Sam nice to see you too im in MS so my schedule is off.
Al & Gina y’all are quite a team I love watching these videos I’m glad you got your septic system is done good job 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 y’all are a joy to watch ❤️❤️❤️
Hello how you doing
Another amazing work rate from you both love to watch you work.
Take care
Looking 👍👍👍👍👍🤗
I'm so impressed watching Al fixing everything that is needed to be done. Gina is learning as well.
will you be running a heating wire down the pipe to prevent the tube from freezing ? We had to dig a pipe up to run one once because it froze up solid .
A clean-out would also be useful should things plug up in the future!!
Depending on the baffle in the tank and also access to the D-box, a clean-out may not be necessary. As long as they have easy access to that tank manhole cover and the D-box, they can run a snake either direction on that straight run of pipe from the tank to the D-box
The guys on old house tape the 2 cans of pvc glue together so they are always together.
I know this is a lot of hard work for you both right now.. but doing it the right way... is always the best way ... time consuming ? yes... but so worth it for peace of mind later on when you are in your house and content !!
Hello how you doing
It's all starting to come together now mate
"Huge Blessing" ...... Huge Pay!!!!!!!!!
FYI all when installing PVC pipe, it's a good practice to have the printed portion up. It is not code, as far as I understand it. It would help later if there was a problem, when you dig it up(heavens forbid) you could easily identify the type/manufacture/date /etc of pipe.
Good Morning LUMNAH ACRES ..
AL , GINA , OLIVIA , & of course FIGARO 🐈..... Hope you don't mind a little friendly advice but , I think in the long run it will help... Coming from a Crane Operator of 45 yrs experience , you can use an Adjustable wrench when in close quarters to run a fitting off or on AFTER it is loosened , But NEVER EVER use an Adjustable wrench to either BREAK FREE or FINAL TIGHTEN any Hydraulic Fitting because of possiblity of warping or deforming that fitting even if it doesn't leak now it might in future. Also if you believe it doesn't matter because it's a bad Jose just being thrown away it is still connected to another fitting that is not bad or damaged yet which just may not be the case after getting mauled by your Adjustable wrench .....Always use proper FITTINGS WRENCHES on your Hydraulic Lines ...Also , here's a tip to make your life easier when changing Hyd Lines , Buy a Double Male Hyd Fitting same size as your hose ... Once you've broken you line free connect the NEW HOSE to the one you're getting ready to pull out & it will pull the NEW HOSE smoothly right into place , ( Slick Huh ? ) Pull once , you're done ....Try that next time , I think you'll appreciate that tip ......ALSO , I've observed how hard GINA works alongside you AL , doing tough manual labor , you do have an exceptional Wife Al , not one who's afraid of hard work & working alongside her Husband in all kinds of Bad weather along with the good ...I believe you should Reward Her for all her hard work & just being the Great Wife She is by maybe Gifting her a RELAXING SPA DAY @ some local place for a whole day of taking care of her...... The least you could do for as much as She does ...........
Love All you Guys , & May GOD BLESS EVERYONE of YOU ...🙏🙏🙏
Double male to old hose.SLICK!! I’m retired now but IF I remember might be able to help somebody someday!
Wow! So much bending and back strain work.
I wish I could order you both a massage appointment. You’ve earned it.
Great work. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
So glad it’s done for you both.
You are amazing at all the gifts you have at fixing things. Blows my mind.
Gina is a blessed woman.
God bless ya both. 🙏
I watch you all the time and enjoy the content
Freeze thaw, Rocks and pipes do not mix...looks great and when you do it yourself even better. You take great pride in what you do. Great bids thank you for sharing
Keep up the good work. You are a great team.
Thank goodness thats done ! LMBO
Good morning ,progress Looking good.
Well another new venture has been completed, pretty near ready for your concrete pour.I was thinking when the loggers came in they won't know what it the place, have shared the video 😀👍
Hello how you doing
When you’re solving cementing any PVC pipe, make sure you bevel the edge on the end of the pipe. The square/sharp edge will invariably leave scratch lines which could become leak paths and could cause the pipe to come apart down the road, it also makes it a lot easier to join pipe together. Great job on all your hard work.
Looks like you have got the septic system done for now well done
Loved watching this process. I am amazed at the knowledge you have Al and Gina you are always right there working along side him! Great team!! Pooper houses have come a long way since the old fashioned out house! Thanks for sharing
Hello Tammy how you doing
Definitely, a jack of all trades, Al. Gina makes a great apprentice, too.
