Great job and tell your little helper she’s doing a wonderful job for being so little. She’s trying to help out too. She’s so cute.

Luckily, all of my friends, families, and contract friends all said.... BEFORE YOU POUR THE FLOOR !!!!!! We make 3 things we would never think of, and they weren't for water pipes.... they were places we might want power..... A roll of conduit was cheap.... Now we have a tub with jets, and our kitchen has a counter with power... Great job, family.... it is getting close....

Having quality control, even though it's from little Missy, is a good thing. Keeps things from getting boring.

All those scraps from the piping foam, cut say four or five at a time to say 12/18 inches long then lay them together and tape them together around the circumference top and bottom and centre well and they make amazing kneeling pads to protect your knees when working on any surface. As a little edit, if you are on a cold surface the pad will radiate your own body heat back to you keeping your bum or knees warm.

Never heard or thought of that. I have knee pads somewhere packed away. Also, I used all those scraps too. Think I have one piece that was two inches and one that was like six inches. Not much left.

@@TriStarHomestead Because of the insulation property on the tubes they make great kneel pads in the winter on cold surfaces and last a long time. I used them often for many jobs including monoblocking and one pad would last a couple of weeks of constant wear. Try sitting on a few pieces and feel how warm your bum gets or put your bare feet on a piece for near instant heat. Great stuff that and i used every time without the knee pads as you had more freedom of movement . All the best and another great video.

Why didn't you lay one waterline, with T's off to all the points?

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

Multiple reasons. One I don’t want a bunch of t’s buried in my concrete. Second and most important is if you do that you could only use one fixture at a time because you would have the water pressure to allow for multiple fixtures working. Doing so this way I could use every fixture in the house at the same time and have full water pressure.

We use a blue glue, that takes away using what your using. Plus the blue glue smells great 😊

You had asked about insulation between your house and garage before cement pad. I would say Yes; where your garage won’t be heated; I’d be afraid that your pipes will freeze. Especially with opening garage door all the time.

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

Our garage will be heated as well so the freezing of pipes is not too much of a concern there.

I would insulate before electrical. With post frame construction one has a thick wall. You will be running 2x4 for your sheetrock. That gives you a 1 1/2" space to run electrical. This makes a much better insulation and wiring easier.

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

That is our plan. Spray foam before any walls go up. Will be easier for them which should make it cheaper for us.

Update on your garden

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

Our video called “How Are They” gave a garden update. Not much happening there unfortunately.

@andrewhopkins2529 3 ай бұрын

Can't you run blue and red across to unsuite and put a t intersect to island

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

I’m guessing you mean run lines to the island then t off to the master bath? If so, we could but I didn’t want to. I would personally rather have dedicated lines to every fixture so that water pressure won’t be affected. It’s cheap to do it now so it made the most sense.

why didn't u do the water line before compacting?

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

It’s explained in the video within the first five minutes.

@RonKoswin 3 ай бұрын

Couldn't tell from the video, but are you planning on putting water and a drain in the garage for cleanup or washing equipment etc.

@TriStarHomestead 3 ай бұрын

No. I don’t want to drain that into my septic in case there was oil or whatnot on the garage floor and I can’t just drain to the outside so I didn’t do garage drains. We won’t park anything but cars in here anyway. We will build a shop and an equipment shed in the future for that stuff.
