RK25 T25 Compact Tractor | Backhoe Saving us $$$ AGAIN | Plumbing TIPS

[@deanbarr5740]

I'm real impressed with your RK tractor Denny. Wished I had done a little more research when buying my J.Deere 3025. But we can't undo the past. But, two weeks ago I made my last payment on my 2018J.D. and traded it down a few years for a New Holland 1520 w/ 35 HP. No DPF as it's a 2010 model geared transmission. So far, I love it. Looks like your doing a great job on the water pipes. Pex is the only way to go.

Did you get a backhoe on your new holland? I love the RK25. Has truly made a difference in our lives. Thanks for the compliments. Most of all thank you for being part of this community on our channel. I am looking forward to the community growing together and helping each other with our adventures.

Saved yourself a lot of money doing that yourself, lucky you had that backhoe.

[@gatheringrusthobbyfarm8081]

The backhoe has certainly paid for itself with the projects that have been coming up. I know it has saved my body a lot of pain and my watch a lot of time.

Hey brotha sorry you had to deal with that but my RK has helped me like this numerous times. Wish I had a basement. Have a crawl space and hate going under there. Glad you got it done

[@gatheringrusthobbyfarm8081]

I always wanted a basement. Finally got only to find out that we are going to have to replace all of the cinder block walls after having the house lifted. The foundation is basically folding. So be thankful for the crawl space.

@@gatheringrusthobbyfarm8081 when watching I was thinking if the foundation of the house was settling when you were talking about it. That sucks dude. What I’ve learned is a lot of builders throw these houses together fast and cut corners. If your foundation is moving that much the pre build work wasn’t done such as soil drainage etc… If I ever get one built brand new you can believe I already have my list of things I want done to prevent future issues.

@@davidadowlen we live in the middle of a farm. The original owner built homes for his kids. So the family built it. The original structure has been built into multiple times. We are finding a bunch of weird stuff. Fixing what we can as we go.

[@davidadowlen]

@@gatheringrusthobbyfarm8081 I understand. On my 20 acres I still keep finding weird stuff the previous owner did

Water in a basement is never a good thing. Hopefully you are content with your repair. Best of luck to you.

So far everything has stayed dry. No issues at this point and very happy with the results.
