You go boy!

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

thank you sir... It's holding up and doing the job we intended... new road is much better...

[@G.I.JeffsWorkbench]

It’s results that matter. Looks like your Hillbilly engineering job will get the job done. Nice things about using OSB is that it’s cheap(-er), it’s plenty strong enough for a one time use form, it’s easier to remove by breaking, and it’ll disintegrate in a few seasons if you can’t get all pieces of your forms out.

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

The culvert is holding up great! Thanks for watching and commenting and I agree the OSB worked well.

[@Cowboy_Steve]

Looks good to me. Maybe do a followup video? I'd be curious to see how it is doing and what the final product looked like. Well done! 🤠

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Good call! I think we have some footage when it was handling the creek at full capacity. More work to be done near it. More access issues to be sorted out for sure.

[@Dan-oz4qb]

For what you spent that looks great to me. It doesn't have to be perfect out there in the woods as long as it works.

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

My thoughts exactly! Being that it was our first, we at least know what we are up against when we start fixing some of our other culverts... Tons of watershed on this property. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@whitetailwarriorsdeercamp88]

i think you did a fine job. what ever works. you showed that you don't need to be a pro contractor to do the work

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it!

If you need that big of a pipe you probably need an apron on the ground to prevent erosion. It may have been there just saw the headway and wing walls. You mentioned it as solid rock and some concrete. Also the hard learned lesson I have is to clean out the culvert to keep trees and branches out of it and remove fallen trees from the creek bed/area of flow. The culvert can get plugged rapidly and wash out the road in a very short amount of time.

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Great points on the clean out. We will need to pour an apron I think. Will have to pump out the water or find a way to divert it so we can get an apron in.

It looks good enough to me, but I really don’t know how much water you get running through there. More importantly I hope you learned to never go do any construction work without a shovel, hammer, sledge, pick, saws of some kind for wood and metal, breaker bar, screw gun and maybe some dynamite 😁. It’s better to have and not need, than to need and not have. I did enjoy the video, young man, thank you for sharing

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

It’s holding up great so far and no issues so I suppose we did well enough. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@BellyUpFishGarage]

How has it held up?

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Has worked great! No issues and its handling all the water and the crossing is great for our tractors. I’ve since put in a second one that is also doing great. Thanks for asking!

[@UAVAndy]

Getting ready to install a culvert on my own land. This vid didn't really help but I got a laugh out of it. You could have just doused the forms with lighter fluid and burned them in place. :)

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Did you see these other ones? Here is the actual installation: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6fRpaqjiLKKhZY and more recently I put in a 26' one here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2GaZWOEr72ErJI and here kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKjFaGeXob2jqrM Both installations have held up well and no we are not experts but our road is accessible and in much better shape.

[@erice9536]

Brother, where art tho? ;) Looks good, hopefully it passes the water test in the spring.

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Hoping so…. Thanks for watching and commenting! - Josh

[@thomasmaroti9312]

You better stick to making shoes

[@HardyBrothersOutdoors]

Haha... concrete shoes? It's not pretty but it has held up and we can now cross, however their are now mud holes all over the road on each side of it. :-)
