RUNNING A WATER LINE TO AN OUTBUILDING OR A SHED

[@pelle8632]

Total beast. Tackling this in the dark on his own while filming says it all. Absolute confidence

[@matthewdoggett1595]

That was a massive job, you don’t do simple jobs just dig 5ft down and fill in tonnes of soil. Hats off to you 👏.

[@Earthau]

Thank you Connor you are a constant source of entertainment and your lovely wife must be a Saint to allow you such a large amount of latitude on projects, purchases, schemes, no room to park her car in the garage and in particular allowing you to use a rather large excavator in your own back yard!

[@williamjohnson9727]

Connor you are a man of many different talents. I would be too scared to tackle the projects you do.

[@stevestratton1888]

Just be patient, have confidence in yourself, and use your common sense, and you’ll be able to tackle just about any project you need to do. If you make a mistake and have to hire someone to do it... heck you were going to pay someone anyway, at least you tried

[@CDPMATH]

Fear is what keeps us from doing/trying out new things.

[@sam-and-angela]

I love the humor and realism of this video. It was also greatly helpful for me to learn how the blue pipe works. Thanks for the reality and chuckles!!!

[@mamarachelanne]

This was so satisfying to watch!

[@Forbes123]

Loved that outtro with Mrs. Lawn Rebel.

[@gregglouis2969]

"Tap this with a rubber mallet....rubber mallet only folks." Hahaha lmao. I love you man, you crack me up.

[@Vitamin-Q]

Okay I'm going to turn the water on... I thought Connor had a phone app for that but it was Sister Ward the trusted apprentice.

[@emanemanresuresu]

Yeah, great app. 5 stars.

[@grass-patch]

I doubt there's not too many jobs Connor won't tackle. He's driven beyond belief.

[@lawnrebel]

most of them are not hard or difficult.. just takes effort

[@schaftastic7119]

I've been waiting a whole year for shed build progress etc. Love that you do it all!

[@lawnrebel]

yeah it got put on hold there for a minute because summer came and I would rather work on the lawn.

[@wannabetropics1913]

I’m sure we’ll see more shed videos now

[@notyou1760]

I built a planting mound in my yard. Angrily chanting “I can’t believe I broke that water line AGAIN!” Followed by water shut off, trip to store, and line repair became my claim to fame on several occasions.

[@richardharwell]

Dude you are a one man construction crew. You are my favourite lawn channel

[@nathanwotwot]

One of the best "how to" channels on the tube 👌

[@lawnrebel]

Ha.. Nice try

[@mikeweckesser4450]

who doesn't like doing outdoor plumbing in the cold. THE WORST!! im cold just watching this

[@FylerTarlow]

Rubber mallet only folks, smacks the shit out of pipe with other pipe section lol you are my spirit animal CW

[@lawnrebel]

I dont want to be blamed for not telling how to really do it.

[@ericd4282]

As a wise man once said; "No good deed goes unpunished". Thanks for sharing Connor! As a 1st time homeowner, seeing videos like this give me a boost of confidence to tackle my own projects.

[@demarsa]

And I thought me tackling vinyl floors over the winter was a big project!!! Mad Respect.

[@grayfox9911]

Whew!! Looks like a lot of work in the dark and cold. Good work!!

[@mrkraymnd]

You are a total boss - watching your videos gives me confidence to do more projects on my own. Curious about your sewage run... sounds like a messier job lol

[@davidh9]

That's how you know she loves you... out in the dark, cold mud, holding your pipes. Cheers to Mrs. Ward.

[@lawnrebel]

An amazing woman

[@Bostonn617]

Just did the same exact job here in New England - it’s a lot of work. Only thing I noticed is you took the time to dig down deep enough you should have kept it that deep when you brought it up into the foundation of the new building - looked really shallow where you entered the new building - Also would have been worth your time to sleeve that water line so in the future if there’s any issues you don’t have to dig the yard up again. I’m just starting to get my grass back to normal after all the crazy digging we had to do. It’s a hell of a job I salute you for taking it on yourself 👍🏻👍🏻

[@johnhamilton9229]

Not a job most would attempt. You should have a little pride flowing. I was impressed and learned a little. Thanks Connor

[@gahomegarden]

Brother, there is DIY but then there is Connor Ward. You will tackle anything. Props to you. You ain’t gonna see Ryan Knorr or Hayne doing this. Haha

[@andrewmyers7131]

Anytime you have connection points or any other current or future access points on something buried back fill around it with sand. It not only marks it when you dig it back up but makes it easier to hand dig around it.

[@timpage5021]

Yes sir absolutely.. Solid gold advice.

[@patkane5018]

Glad you're done with that. Trench work can be dangerous! Also, we need more of the chimney job if you don't mind😁😁

[@sotexlawn]

Getting close to that 1st bubble bath in the sheshed. 😂 jk, much respect on all your hard work. Great job 👍🏻

[@ReppinCTandATL]

Very impressive! A true renaissance man.

[@stash7714]

Another great “how to”. My basement is now floaded though, I must have missed a step

[@roslynr9767]

Thank you for doing this!! Amazing! The hidden world of plumbing!! you are awesome!

[@bradgregory3424]

I think said “that’s what she said’” 30 times watching this lol great video

[@dennis82468]

Rubber mallet only folks 🤣 Sister Ward deserves a medal 🏅

[@erikdale9145]

Thoroughly enjoyed and well done.

[@Liledgy100]

Nice job! Plywood would’ve saved most of your yard restoration. We plank everything when we bring mini ex’s, bobcats, dingos, etc. In people’s yards to do construction work.

[@lawnrebel]

Yes I really should have. Didn't even think about that

[@jaymetheaccountant]

Thought for sure you would save that job for your lottery winner 😆 Nice work my friend that’s one hell of a job 😎

[@lushlawns8904]

Love you two. Looking good pal!

[@seminole715]

Sister Ward is a worker! LOL Thank you for the video!

[@trawatograss508]

Yeah man! Very good job!

[@hotlatinimport]

I definitely admire your DIY skills

[@cheezypeezy54]

Seriously this amazing. Thanks for sharing this

[@stonesauer5781]

Connor !...dude you're a Beast !!!

[@PacificNorthwestLawns]

Best "How To" video ever! 😂👍

[@macombcougars1112]

The Lawn Rebel is bad azz!

[@mburke1211]

I searched the comments thoroughly, certain I would find someone voicing concerns about your trench collapsing on you. Your subs must be taking it easy on you for the holidays. Cool video sir. You are the man when it comes to home projects!

[@FylerTarlow]

A collapsed trench sounds like a problem for a safety sally to worry about

[@lawnrebel]

yeah the sallies have not come out in force yet.

[@WillKruger-xw8nd]

I think you built a trench deep enough for a battlefield. Was that necessary? Other than that I respect you drive and effort

[@wannabetropics1913]

I love seeing these DIY videos, you remind me much of myself. Always in the hurry and tend to fumble along. I mean that in the nicest of ways. Awesome job getting the water to the shed brother! Can't wait to see the next video you do such a great job putting them together! I really apricate you channel and what you do!

[@lawnrebel]

Thanks for watching. All these things I can do. It just takes effort and a little bit of know how. It's comments like this that keeps me making vids. So many times it would be much easier to just work and not film/edit.

[@wannabetropics1913]

@@lawnrebel thanks Connor you do a great job and I know how much time and effort goes into these. Between your personality and editing you’ve got one gem of a channel! 😉

[@Legendary_UA]

Super impressed with the skill set. Nice job.

[@andrewling5847]

Such awesomeness in this video....

[@pedromilana]

Haha! That ending was hilarious!

[@thebuchanans2002]

glad you had that reducer "the hardware store closes at 6" is all too common when working on anything plumbing. The amount of trenches for one shed. couldn't we have killed 3 birds with one stone?? Anyways i appreciate others suffering as i've been in those same positions way too many times!! Keep up the great work!!!

[@lawnrebel]

oh yeah... you NEVER have what you need the first time... No matter how much you prepare.

[@elpaniagua815]

Not a “How to” channel BUT how can it not be?! Nice work Connor!

[@lawnrebel]

Ha... How I do it?

[@ddteamrc6461]

Great job

[@1975oldschool]

I like how you’re just have alittle shade tree in you!

You are freakin' nuts but Sister Ward is an absolute saint. Rock on.

She is

Sister Ward is the all-time MVP

yeah no kidding.

[@vinnypinatelli221]

Great video and hilarious ending

[@lawnrebel]

Thank you for stopping by

[@vinnypinatelli221]

No problem I love the videos

[@GreggBirdy]

Loved the ending 😂

[@tlijklema]

Always nice to see other people have the same (like) issues #nofilter. Thought for a sec there you burried sis ward, however se does come in handy to 'clean the pipes' ;-)

[@sharkdizogg]

I bet a power broom would make quick work of the soil cleanup in the yard. Echo makes a power broom attachment for their PAS trimmers if you have one of those. Looking forward to seeing how you handle the cleanup. Thanks for taking us along on your journey.

[@njphil1279]

Nice job man.. Surprised they used galvanized pipe, not up to code here in Jersey since it builds up deposits and corrodes.

[@lawnrebel]

yeah I wonder if that old stuff was stainless. The new fittings that I put in were galvanized. Those fittings that i dug up have been there for 7 years.

[@njphil1279]

@@lawnrebel You should be good for the next 50+ years so let the next guy worry about it. I say this because I was that next guy that bought a 50 yr/old house and wound up changing some galvanized stuff during some renovations and saw the 3/4" fittings were down to 1/2 diameter and built up with corrosion and crap and I have really good well water here.

[@ri22o]

I always love these how-to videos. :thumbsup:

Wet, cold , tired Plumbing Rebel plugging away in the dark

[@deanhaylock133]

great video as usual. But i have notice that 'Her indoors' always turns up when the work is done usually at the end of the video...My wife does the same, she has a middle name...she's called 'Blister' because she always turns up when the hard work is done...tee hee

Try a Grading Rake to minimize the Extra Soil from your lawn! I always try to allow 20% for Compaction.

Sweet! Another “how to” video!

Next video: Connor drives a Caterpillar 795F or BelAZ))

[@joer481]

Blue the right coupling that fits your pipe over or into the bell on the other side pipe fittings and it should go together. I just went through this doing a super French drain for a customer. 🙄😒

[@lawnrebel]

Thanks for the tips!

[@familyownedlawncareservices]

wonder how the paddle wheel for the kombi would do on moving the dirt on the lawn to the trench

Awesome video dude! 💙👍🏼✨

i've had good luck trenching lines with a hydrovac truck :) can't break lines as easy that way lol

You going to put an instant hot water heater in there? I got a small electric one for my shed for a couple hundred.

Likely yes

this is a great "how to" video

Your rubber mallet sounds funny lol

[@bradymyers3675]

Have always been curious, what is your 9-5 job?

[@BOBY4EVER15]

Thats a real man! this was not a sissy job! maybe the shed will be done in early 2021 ? :)

[@lawnrebel]

Ha.. Maybe. That's a lofty goal

[@InTheVise]

Great job! Greetings from Norway. Just be careful working alone in the trench. It can collapse, and you will be buried alive.

HA... #dowork

[@andybell4329]

Sorry to be a Ryan Knorr but as a Civil Engineer, I feel it my duty to put my Health and Safety hat on, and say entering a trench with unsupported sides is a big no no. Especially as you were crouching in the trench when you'd dentified the sides were falling in and excavated material was close to the edge. I'd put that one down as a near miss!

[@lawnrebel]

Thanks Sally

[@andybell4329]

I must say you definitely break alot of stuff in the process of installing new stuff. Wayyyyy more work than necessary!!! You should draw up a diagram of all the stuff buried in your yard cause there is a lot!
