Foundation Hand MIXED and Hand Poured NON STOP 11 Hours Straight CHEERLEADERS INCLUDED

[@tedlasalvia9668]

Watching how hard your crew worked and then watched the look on their faces as you gave them that bonus (both the money and the girls :) ) was just awesome. You guys got a lot done on that day!! Thanks for sharing with us James!

[@danwright6234]

James, I live in Allen,TX and have watched you and Melinda for a few years. I let the green-eyed monster affect me. Through your transition, selling your things in N Tx and building your piece of paradise in iloilo with precision and all of the niceties and toys. I’ve since married my Filipina and have tried to get her visa to even visit the US. I took a hiatus from your videos and checked in on this build. The green-eyed monster of envy is my fault. You’ve got your $hit together. You and Melinda have earned everything you have. I’m 63 and my wife is 58. I just want to congratulate you on everything and also hope your health is still doing well. You’ll have to excuse me, I’ve got some catching up to do on your videos. 🤠🤘🏻

[@curtisseaward2536]

Hi James I watch your videos all the time and those men and women really worked hard to pour that slab. Congratulations to all of them.

[@TexasFilipino]

Thanks 👍

[@richsadventures1889]

Very impressive James, cold joint on a sidewalk is one thing, but up there no good. The cheerleaders are a nice touch.

[@jerrywedzinga6058]

Excellent job, that's how you take care of a crew. That rain is a blessing in many ways, for the plants, the water supply and the concrete. Great job done by the TEAM.

[@TexasFilipino]

Thanks 👍

[@cobuscrouse4195]

With all your projects you provide for every worker who toil .now they earn not to bumm smokes from strangers❤

[@tryscience]

James - you're right. You can't tell the concrete not to dry because the crew wants lunch. You arranged it ahead of time, Not nice of Mel to not leave some food for you like normal. But you certainly should have had breakfast before such a big job! It sucks that you had to go hungry because you were doing the right thing by keeping the concrete pouring. She needs to remember you are managing the job this way in both of your best interests. Having a cold joint and its consequences would not make her happy. I have to say I'm impressed with your crew. What a great system for measuring, mixing, pouring! They do need to be straightforward about having Sahara treatment handy. When it comes time for me to build something, I'll ask for photographic evidence of the materials I requested.

[@arizonaalchemy7572]

I Can Not imagine the Philippines WITHOUT RAIN !! What a Reward for those Guys, they Deserve it ! They worked HARD !! Fun vlog, Thank You James and Mel. 😊

[@TexasFilipino]

Thanks so much

[@smartbiz888]

Ok, James...You've set the bar VERY HIGH for us future builders...Dancing girls??? 😂 Overall, a very successful successful long day... Time to cool off here, pool action coming up next... Enjoy your weekend! 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

[@TexasFilipino]

😁 everything is bigger in Texas

[@jeffreythompson9549]

You've got to love the rain gods - came visiting after the pour had time to firm up a little, and helping with the curing. Much as you need the rain it would have been bad a few hours earlier.

[@jamestopeka2236]

I'm on my 10 th year here in Solano Nueva Vizcaya Philippines and i definitely have changed for the better , I've learned to relax more and see the simple things that i took for granite in America . I Also learned that I'm in there country and culture so doesn't try to compare the countrys to disrespect theirs .I give her family and friends as much work as i can . Im.63 and my Philipina is 51 .

[@kevinhickson1481]

Slab didn't look so big until they started pouring Crete, lot's of work. Great job.

[@TexasFilipino]

Thanks 👍

[@andrewwatkins1561]

That rain was a blessing.

[@geofffergusson7438]

Well what an effort!! great job to all the crew very nice to watch the pouring. Rain on man ☔🌧️🌧️

[@michaelkeating-kz1cx]

Amazing work by everyone. Great Episode and finally some rain.

[@dmillsmixedadventures]

Nice . Seems us contractors always have last minute opps, The good thing is good foreman spot it and fix it to keep the project running. See you soon. Derek

[@TexasFilipino]

When are you coming back?

[@andrewwilliston5798]

I'm quite sure that the dancers were a strong motivation! Seriously though, staying cool when the challenges come up has to be the lesson of the day. Well done to everyone!

[@hansfrisnes7562]

Am so impressed James. buider myself.What u and your wife doing...... Its great! i love your hole crew and family.Great community.

[@TexasFilipino]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@glen4680]

Standing ovation for your crew and yeah the eye candy was the icing on the cake.

[@dr.emmittbrowniii2869]

I noticed that Mel seems more aware of business and planning. She's a boss now !!! Her voice is louder and more confident as well.

[@DavidCook-u5k]

The Guys did you proud James & Mel. They worked hard. Really enjoyed the video of the Big Pour. We never have cheerleaders on our projects in Thailand.

[@TexasFilipino]

Gotta go BIG or GO Home Lol

[@PaulClaypool-g2s]

Wow...amazing to watch this build. Everyone worked hard to get the final pour done. From mixing concrete, spreading the concrete to Mel and company preparing the food. So inspiring to watch! The drawing was spectacular. What a nice gesture.

[@johncook2924]

James that was epic. Great video

[@scottbrown3546]

I love watching all your content

[@mancave6784]

Hi James, thank you for all the info, helps a lot we are doing a small build well started 5 years ago, but could not get back to finish, but with your info will make it so much better, Thank you

[@slimpickens5485]

Wonderful job y'all done today. Number 1 learning channel in the Philippines. Every vlogg I make sure thumbs up. God Bless and have a great day in the Philippines. Oh yes my filipina stays in her lane Hahahahaha. April 18th married 16 years living in the Big Valley California USA

[@christophergauthier5149]

Really great job by everyone! Love watching your videos do I can learn what to expect when we build in Iloilo

[@nottelling620]

HI JAMES , fantastic video. Here in USA , we almost always use redi mix trucks for concrete pours. We have hand mixed small amounts of concrete by hand. Since we tend to do a lot of brick and or block work , we use mortar mixers. Huge CONGRATS to you , workers and MEL and her help. BTW I bet there were no COLD JOINTS DURING/AFTER THE CHEERLEADERS.... GOD BLESS CIAO

[@KillerGrubwithMarkBagley]

What a blessing, God blesses those who bless others.

[@nelsondog100]

Whooh, what a day… W0W on so many levels! It takes quite the person to make all that happen not to mention a crazy language barrier. Congratulations James.

[@cynthiagarnham1157]

Yup agree!. Especially regarding the language. Up here in rural Pangasinan, many workers barely understand basic English. Getting work done, needs an interpreter!! Am glad that many of James's guys seem to follow his guidance( mostly! Lol).

[@MikeandMaeSincitytoPI]

Great work day I've been watching for so many years love to watch your builds I did concrete almost 40 years and now in Cebu working on a resort and dabbling in u tube vlogg ( Mike and Mae from sin city to the PI hope to visit you soon

[@TexasFilipino]

Very cool!

[@EdgarDeem-yc7ml]

So happy you got your rain I hope it’s a lot so long as it doesn’t hurt the pour or anything else. But hopefully cool night for everyone to sleep after working so hard .

[@TexasFilipino]

It's perfect for concrete after a pour

[@jessefelix4050]

One of my favorite videos I appreciate your hard work

[@dennisharte23]

What a job! And a beautiful dance troupe for a finale. Hope you get the rain you need.

[@Attila-LV]

Absolutely an amazing video. Truly enjoyed this episode. Blessings to you, the workers and families.

[@PinoyKy]

That raffel was a good idea to end the day with. Good motivational tool

[@xiaobao4757]

[@graceburkett6916]

Hello my brother man I love your videos just keep up the good work you doing I really enjoy your videos videos

[@will_274]

[@TexasFilipino]

That is awesome!

[@jeffreylloyd1838]

[@johnmarlin4661]

Think Ive watched every pour since the garage was by its self LOL.. I was watchn when you guys showed up at night and opened the garage . Didnt know the foundations for house waa already poured LOL

[@anitabrinkman3832]

Man your poring team is tight! What a machine

[@TheWickerShireProject]

Crazy epic episode! No Sealer! No crew working and things be drying! Skins vs shirts get them split. No food for Mr. Hightower as lanes change and he sits in a ditch as Mel runs him off in a quad E-bike sports car!, Burned rice, Chicken feet, cheerleaders , concrete line feeders, Grand prize winner MIA out cold! Chicks and pics and the thunder gods arrive over the Philippines to wash away the heat and misery of the day for a clean start tomorrow! Much enjoyed! Bill Sharon and the kids. Shire Out!

[@tryscience]

What a cool write-up! So glad you got some rain relief after so many months of drought. Hopefully the worst is over.

[@arizonaalchemy7572]

[@troybassett7031]

LMAO over that life and times of Josey Wales comment!!!

[@stacy58306]

James, I don't think you could find that many guys here in the US willing to work that hard pouring concrete.

[@walterperry4565]

On the mexican border

[@richsadventures1889]

You can't guys to work at all in the US.

[@dougd2568]

the big day is here, good luck with the pour. u may have to ice down some Texas cerveza. curious I believe when you did the main house you shared the proportions in your cement mix, is that something u can share again, including how much sahara. if not no big deal as I said I'm just curious.

[@frankkie3849]

That is fast work, these guys are good, nicely done,,thanks for sharing,,masking tape should also work on covering the holes..😊

[@frankkie3849]

Problem was you dogged her out in front of the help,, lost her face,,so yes that jeep is going to leave tire tracks on your body..😊

[@vinniegillotti9347]

Hopefully the rain is gentle, so it doesn’t ruin the top of the concrete unless it pretty hard already. I guess we’ll know in the next video.

[@TexasFilipino]

Rain is great for a fresh pour

[@JWDREAM-d3x]

There's your thumbs up James as always my brother 👍

[@paulmorgan8660]

Great job on the pour. Loved the video but you may wanna start wearing a bulletproof vest.
