Concrete guy here over 25yrs. You need to spray the wall down with oil before you pour the concrete. Fresh oiled wall will work the best. The oil on the rebar isn't a big deal the concrete will still stick to the rebar as it cures. Never as been a problem

[@dennisthompson483]

We always hold the rebar in place by tying it to the wall ties every other panel. Works great. Enjoying the build. Gods Blessing

[@ryangonzales6542]

Dont worry about a little oil on the rebar. It will still bond just fine from the compression. For construction, always gotta order things weeks in advance. Things go in and out of inventory so quick

Merry Christmas Cornstar Family🎄🤶🎅☃️

[@died4us590]

I'm really astounded at some of the comments, because it's not our house, and not for us to judge. I think Cole and Roman are a good team, along with the help the family throws in. This house needed a lot of work anyway, and i would not have moved my wife and children into a potentially dangerous home. The foundation and basement needed work anyway, so why not do all this once, and enjoy it. The electrical, plumbing, and many other thing's needed replacing. There are countless old house's that have burned down and killed many people just from that old wiring. The old plumbing wasn't adequate, and upgrading was needed, and the old lathe and plaster was falling off all over the house, and removing all that makes the electrical, plumbing, and heating much easier to do. Cole is learning valuable skills while doing this, and making these video's is paying the bill's. His family can come to the site at anytime to visit Cole, and this house has a lot of sentimental value to Cole, his dad, and family. He grew up around his grandpa in this house, and is restoring it to raise his family in, along with making it structurally safe, and built to last. I am sure his whole family will enjoy the underground movie theatre, and maybe it's not something i would want, but he does, and it's his house to build as he and his family would like it. This really hasn't taken that long for the amount of work that's been done. It is now winter, and you don't farm, so perfect time to get what he can get done in the off season. Eventually this will be finished, and then farming will come back, but i suspect Cole will find more thing's to challenge him. You tube gives him another income besides farming that is helping him make this a dream home for his family, so good on him. G-d bless everyone.

[@jorgejiminez-rk1uu]

they can't help themselves on this channel for some reason. Constantly bombarded by people who aren't doing it themselves, but think he should do it their way. Even the, so called, professionals up there. They don't do this every day on their own dime, and without a team of 10-20+ workers. I also think they just randomly stumble on his channel because they'll say "should've talked to a pro"...when he flew a few states away to specifically work with one. Or I especially like the ones who say "he won't be done in a year", when he literally stripped, and reframed, the entire house in a year.

To all of Cole’s commenters. While Cole and his family live in a very cold section of the country it is also one of the countries areas most frequented by Tornados, Wind Storms and Severe Rain Storms. This room is actually a safe room for all the family is case a bad weather event destroys their home place. A movie theater sounds more pleasant and family oriented. One last thought, Cole said in this posting once the walls are poured they will put a lid on it, meaning a secured top tied to the rebarred structure. He is very methodical in his approach to every thing he does and makes it fun and interesting at the same time. Great work Cole and your extended family and friends! 2

Ugh, he already has a basement? I lived through a direct hit F5 in a basement. It's a theater/gameroom. I live north of him in the land of lakes, alot of people have theaters collecting dust.

By the time you get ready to pour concrete, you will have to respray the forms. The release oil will not affect the strength of the concrete or affect the rebar. The ribs on the rebar is what holds the concrete.

Hi Cole, Looks like you just pounded the rebar into your holes drilled into the old basement concrete(and rock). Here in California code requires any connections to existing concrete to have the rebar attaching the two walls to be EPOXIED IN. Yes, we have earth quakes here, but Iowa is capable as well, all be it smaller ones. So those two wall connections to the old basement could pull apart in that event. I Care about you and wish you, Roman and your families a Merry Christmas!🎄🎄🎄

It would help with differential subsidence as well. Don't want the wall pulling apart. Concrete has poor tensile strength so you'd really want the rebar connection as you mentioned.

@ 23:41 (to everyone, look closely at the middle left part of the screen) i wonder "why did you have Subway sign laying on the floor in your heated workshop ?"

[@Traks_threw_life86]

I have a Sonic and Dairy Queen sign bc most of the small towns around here with businesses are closed now. We used to have 3 food places, and now all we have is pizza. The building is sold, and that is how I got my signs. It may be the same for them, but who knows.

You may want to use some sprayfoam at the connections between your forms and the old concrete foundation unless you were able to get that surface super smooth and tapcon the forms to the old wall. I never noticed that you had made the old wall as smooth as it is now. I thought you still had a bunch of rocks protruding from the surface.

The release oil will not affect it at all, the rio and concrete seperate the moment there is expansion and contraction due to weather change

[@AuntieBrennie]

Thank you for ALWAYS illustrating the importance and POWER of positive thinking! B~}

Anyone else watch the concrete pour in the Larson Farms beginning of each new video? That'll be Cole when this pour starts... but 10x the mess. All we'll need is Cole to ask DC, "What's a prostate?".

I’m so happy you finally ironed out the IRS mistake. I would hold them to the remaining 500 too. They made a huge mistake, found it, and didn’t double check their math. Have them send you the excel doc to justify their figures.

I agree. All taxes should tie to the gnats a$$ or someone needs to be fired. You wouldn't need to pay a personal accountant to pursue it either. Makes me wonder just what is going on. Where is truth?! Hmmmmmm.

[@maryking9706]

I disagree, but still cool.

Applauding the refund from the state!
