You mean the dump cart that everyone else said you don't need? The one that has been used all the time? I would never let them forget that.

[@shaneallison3370]

Hey Chet Cut a deep well socket in half and weld one to each end of a similar size pipe so the threaded rod travels through the pipe. Just make a custom deep well 👍

[@pinwizz69]

Brilliant idea Sir. Wish I'd have thought of that a few dozen or more times over the 40 years I've worked on pool tables, jukeboxes, pinball and arcade games.

[@shaneallison3370]

Only took me 5 years of putting culvert ends on to come up with that 😂. Always extra sockets around if the application is same size or make a whole set 😆

[@benfields7556]

Yeah great idea! I think Chet knows how to do that just I think more effort for that rather than just cutting it off like he did.

Thank you for say that about spam . I haven't got none from your yet. But farmer grayce had whole a lot of them. And I still today this day I still don't understand why she block me. And Laura farms has few of them. Like you said I hate people that try scams off people make contact. Like you. Mr lason you doing great job

[@rf005]

Dougo is a man of many talents , and he stays humble.

[@leahmollytheblindcatnordee3586]

It is completely amazing what we do when we are young that comes to haunt us later and it usually does. Looks like your dad is doing a super job working the ditch. And it will be so much better when it is done. Oh yes, I have noticed the lovely scammers and have used my OCD tendency as well as my love of messing them up by going down the comment section and looking for the scammers (i.e. "telegram" and "you have won a prize") so that I can report them. It gives me a real glow inside to see them disappear and do something to make it a little harder for the people out there who are crooked. I know they are created by bots and I don't really do much, but still it makes me happy. We have a land line phone and are constantly getting scam calls that fuel my rage. "Hello, this is ....., is this ....., "who?" "I can't understand you", "what was that?" click. Some of you out there may know what I am talking about.

The lip part is so you can place rocks at the end of them. That prevent soil erosions from build inside the tube and out side the tube

It's always a hoot watching Chet and Big Swede wotking together with some Dougo thrown in. It gets down to the 20's and you won't see me outside till it hits the 70's again. And I moved to Miami from Traverse City Michigan. The only snow I wanna see is on top of a cone with raspberry syrup on it.

That lip on the inlet and outlets attached to the Culvert has a good purpose it keeps your Culvert from getting undercut from the water flow. Jack of all Trade, work for the county for a year. On the inlet it's good to lay down some geotextile and start your shoulder rip wrap at the edge of that lip keeps the grass from over growing your Culvert end a little longer. BTW love the rift at the end is that little Booker T or ZZ Top?🤔😀👍🏼

Watching you guys from hospital bed at 4:00 a.m. Heart rhythm is jumping around again. Guess I’ll have to have another cardio version. This will be the third time with the paddles. I know, you guys can do it with jumper cables! That would save a ton of money. Been fooling with this for the last year and a half. There’s got to be a better way! Got my Sonne Farms long sleeves on with Larson Farms short sleeve under it. The ambulance ride to Tulsa was cold last time so I doubled up this time. Hope I can go to sleep with heart rate jumping around from 70 to 120 to 180 and back down to 40. Atrial fibrillation- atrial flutter - super ventricular tachycardia - back down to a bradycardia rate, OH MY! Glad I grabbed my iPad! ERIK! CHET! BRODY! DOUGO! We can fix that whiplash! Hey!

[@TheJimmybud]

If you want to be a real supervisor 1. Sneak up on the crew, preferably on the biggest piece of equipment on their blindside.2. Park your pickup where it is sure to be in the way and get ran into.3. Don't have an answer for any question about the job, they have already expected you not to have an answer, leave alone take your advice!
