I think it’s super that you’re teaching these guys how to do this! You can be so proud and they can feel so good knowing and passing it on down the line. Everyone helping everyone. I come from a large family and this is how we all did when we were young. Just jumped in and got it done when one of us had a project. Always felt so good to do that and I wish my health would still allow it but we’re old getting old and useless.😂😂 still have lots of knowledge to pass on though. Love you guys.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

😘❤️🙏🏼🌺

Amazing watching your journey from the bus to Panama! This is a huuuge project and I hope everything goes well.

Lots of concrete in your future. I would hope you get your hands on three more mixers and plenty of shovel's. Hats off to you. It takes courage to build your own home. I built my first home while working a full time job in 1981. Exhausting but so rewarding. You got this.

Hi Guys! Be very cautious. I'm going to get straight to the point. Be in the lookout for another ("BUG") scorpion. My father said, (and It turned out to be true for us) that they supposedly come in pairs. We weren't on a farm so that may be a factor..It was actually just the Burbs of Hollywood, Fl. but, please keep an eye out. The ones we found were very large and I don't know much more. I'd be so sad if anything happened to you guys! Love & hugs for everyone, And a special Hi Princess Superhero! .. for Sadie I'm so excited each time I see a new video release. You guys are an inspiration

Hey guys, I did get SurfSark years ago but I’m passing on this post I recently saw that may explain the increase spam attempts getting into phones. This was pertinent for a friend still using an iPhone 6 …check this title out Ethically hacker: “100% your phone is hacked”

great job God Bless

Congrats on the sewing machine

in awe of all you guys have accomplished pure awe on many levels. feeling a high vibe & lotsa love ✨✨🌞🤍🌞✨✨

OMG - why don't you just put a spot/tack weld on those rebar thingys.....?????? Would save a ton of time vs. wire wrapping and twisting.......

I think what happened was false expectations: 1. If you move to the rain forest, expect bugs, mold, animals and life everywhere, the forest will not accommodate for you. Better to live in town. 2.if you choose the most expensive town in Panama expect high prices, living just 30min down the mountain in David will significantly decrease the prices. Is not about greengo prices. Same goes for Casco. Make sure you can afford life in those pretty towns. 3. The allergies, well an allergologies would have resolved that easily. 4.if you move to a tropical country, expect a tropical weather, no surprises there.

Love love love you good people ! I used to watch the adds . But … they are now over 2 min long . I’m so impatient to watch your video I pass by them . Just so you know I’m not doing it at all anymore.

It pains me to see this wife and mother paint her pants on and shovel in front of these men staring at her

That thumb nail is starting to look like realistic minecraft

My grandmother was a genuine tailor with her shop 1930’s thru 1950’s. This led me to periodically fantasize that I had inherited her gift. I would go through these sewing periods in my 20’s & 30’s that were always a disaster. I finally came to terms with my lack of sewing talent in my 40’s. Instead I turned to making jewelry which it turns out I’m quite good at. If your sewing is unsuccessful you might find that your talent lies in a different craft.

Kaylee! So many projects with your sewing machine. From quilts to clothing to hand bags and cloth dolls! What fun you will have teaching Sadie along the way. The foundation is incredible. Love watching everyone build with great love and appreciation. Thank you for sharing how to do everything with joy and love in your hearts.

Please watch Jazz and Crystal on Vanwives. They are building their new home in Baja, Mexico. They are at the same exact spot as you guys with building the rebar towers and twisting the ties. It's fun to watch how they and their crew accomplish the same task. They don't have a rebar bender and are doing it by standing on the rebar and bending it by hand. Very interesting but not as detailed as yours. You might be able to exchange tips with each other.

You can always try these wire twisters. I'm sure the plier ones will work on thicker gage wire as well

Hey you three..just a reminder. You ROCK! What a great crew you've created. Some setbacks yes, but, it's part of the process. And, K awesome to have a Sewing Machine. It's a creative and some may say a Lost Art. Sadie is blessed to have such talented parents.

I was watching the van wives they to are building their own home n Mexico they have a home made rebar tie out of rebar should check it out

Watch Van Wives today Sunday February 2nd , their doing exactly what your doing . They put a moisture barrier down before the concrete

💚

snake ,scorpions,centipedes do not like burnt ashes or cloves around perimeters using,,im in southern new mexico. Navajo proven..be well and safe

Hi Jordan and Kaylee, I’m a long time follower and came in a little late on the foundation digging. I’m retired from construction now, but noticed you didn’t set 2x4 battle boards at the four corners to square the footprint of the building, before digging the foundation. That would have given you a square corner reference from the groundwork all the way through the construction process. It might be still be helpful to install them now to keep the building square for the rest of the buildout. You set two opposite 2x4 corner Ls first and then the other two Ls, using the string method you use now. As the building progresses you always will have a square reference point Hope this is helpful, Richard

The Vanwives are building a place in Mexico and they Ordered a "Big Bag" which i think they said was like a ton of concrete in 1 massive bag.

I have been sewing most of my life and love it. Enjoy the journey .❤❤❤

I haven't read all the comments... Just two thoughts, get the wire ties with the loops... much less work... And just check that your concrete mix isn't to wet, The more water the weaker the strength. Oh and the purpose of the wire ties is to just hold the rebar in place, it's not necessary to tie every intersection of rebar pieces.

I tried to order Beam, but they don't ship to Mexico.

@Vanwives has a sweet way to tie rebar for their zapatas

Wrong guy holding the 'smart' end of the tape. Bummer.

We flew in those fancy wire twisters and totally ended up using the pliers, ha~

Is anyone else seeing what I'm seeing? That column looked crooked as a politician. It wasnt near square to the footing. And the entire layout of footings looks off??? Is it me or the camera angle? Something doesn't look right.

love the crew vibes.

The way you guys deal with this set back is inspiring. It's insane how deep and large and square the holes are. But its the best to discover it now! What if the poles are up and the issue arises... You will get there and the men you have, I agree a 100% with Kailee, so much nicer to work with people that are willing to learn, do their best and love to have fun. You are giving them so much by letting them help. Amazing!!

OMG.......!!!...........Noooooooooooo.................Chin-up Lil' Buckaroo...The Vermonter

Mister Roger’s ….. Eric Clapton? That’s close😎🌴

ELECTRIC Rebar tying tool...

I commend you guys, for what you are doing. There is a saying, give a fish that will take of their need for the day. But teach them how to catch a fish is something for them that will be for a lifetime. Allowing them to learn new talents will give them a skill that will be passed on to others. It is like pay it forward. Looking good. Sadie is such a cutie.

When you’re decluttering Sadie’s toys, it might work better for her if you ask her which toys she wants to give to other children, rather than which she wants to keep.

You guys are CRUSHING IT! So fun to watch. My family is doing a three month stint in Guatemala right now to avoid the MN winter :-D. Watching the part of the video where you guys are struggling to move the mixer, doesnt the Skid Steer have a hitch in the back to quickly move the mixer around?... Im sure if it did you would have thought of that, but thought id chime in just in case you didnt. Have a great one guys and keep up the fantastic work! Much love from MN (Guatemala).

I noticed it was off from the drone shot in beginning of video. Love your videos guys

❤👍

ALERT - You forgot to use concreate vibrator. This is crucial to expel out any trapped air pockets which is present can compromise the structural integrity and strength.

4:47min do you hear the wind? I love it it’s sunny and windy and spacious and just my favorite sound ❤

Amazing work❤😊😊😊

I don't know but what I heard is the reason snakes of scorpions as babies are more dangerous is they have no control of their poison. When they sting or bite you get a full dose instead of a tiny amount. Just be careful. Small critters can be worse to get bitten by.

Does that mean everyone will be wearing Kaylee made hats ❤

Enriquez and his friends are very hard working and although they are still learning it’s awesome everything they have done so far , wow 👍❤
