@@Valdiviadelsur I purchased the M\L belt and I’m size 38 waist. The belt fits but if I was to do it again I would have tried the next size. If I end up loosing some weight it will be perfect. The belt is pretty awesome, I’m not sure if I’m thinking that because I spent so much? Either way it’s nice having an almost custom belt. I’m sure after a year I’ll take things off and/or add things.

The layout was done by Dirtlocker - at the time you would just enter in your length and width and it would calculate the amount of dirtlockers needed. It was also calculated by using the interlocking system, however, since then Dirtlocker has reached out to me telling me that interlocking is no longer recommended.

Thank you for sharing, keep us posted on your repair

@@Moormores yes, I’m trying to get sponsorship now. Monumental Workx’s is offering to wrap it for advertising, which is great since the price of the truck was a stretch for us to afford. Fingers crossed.

@@boatster779 I’m sorry if the one you bought isn’t working. I know a few folks who purchased the cybertruck and it’s been fantastic. Perhaps you should take yours in for service if you’re having issues.

@@pe-man4838 Great to see such a calm response to a negative comment! +1 subscriber

@@russellheath7587 it was a huge sacrifice for us to get the truck (money wise) as a general contractor I wanted to pollute the environment less. Mission accomplished. We are very proud of our choice. We don’t preach to others, but we are doing our part for everyone to breathe clean air, especially our grandkids. You’re our first negative comment (I’m sure it won’t be our last).I support your opinion and whatever choices you make for yourself, Just curious why you think the Cybertruck is a failure?

I love mine, to each his own

I am not a fan of the CT look ,but the tech on the CT is amazing. And the tint job is very well done.

It looks fantastic, the plants really took off. The dirt locker makes it 100 times easier to water.

Surprisingly I really like the steering wheel, but i think we can get use to almost anything.

@@threeriversforge1997 great info. Thanks for sharing. We haven’t done the plants on the inside, so we will use some of your recommendations. We did the rosemary on the perimeter because we heard that it repels the gophers.

@@pe-man4838 I've heard rosemary and onions are both good for that. I'm waiting on a shipment of Allium cernuum (nodding onion) to try out since it's both native and edible. When you get to researching native plants, you'll run into a famous image of their root systems and how deeply they burrow into the ground. Lead Plant goes down something like 15', and the early settlers used to complain that it made the ground nearly impossible to plow. :D

Ours has been working flawlessly for months (fingers crossed)

get a life mon

Thanks! 😁

One key is to plant native plants that have very deep-rooting habits. That binds the soil in place even against erosion and gravity. A good example of this would be Panicum virgatum (Switch Grass) which is absolutely lovely stuff. It's hair-like roots go down six feet or more and prevent the ground from going anywhere. Echinacea purpurea and E. palida, the Purple Coneflowers everyone loves, are another example. Both are native to California, I believe, so there's no harm in adding them in spots to help tie the dirt lockers to the existing soil strata.

I had to flash flood go through my dirt lockers and washed several of them out!

I just got a martinez m1 this week, best hammer I've ever used and way less wear on my elbow

I’ve had a Martinez m4 handle with m1 head for the past 2.5 years now still love it don’t see myself ever going back

See if ya can find someone that has one and will let ya try pne out. I bought the M4 as soon as it was released, used it up until last fall. Didnt help my elbow much at all tbh. Gave it away to one of my guys. The side puller is awesome, feels nice in hand but is about the same weight as a 20oz. Estwing(not all that light). Good hammer but wasnt the end all of hammers for me. Using a sturnus 13oz. for about a year now along side my 10oz titanium wood handle for trim

How do you like the suspenders? I was also eyeballing the vest, but so used to just using a belt.

@pe-man4838 I like them forsure I've never used them either but if you got those pouches loaded up pretty good it definitely takes some weight off the hips.

I threw them into the washing machine a few times. I had mastic on them and it fell right off. Of course I had to do it when my wife was at work, she would have killed me, knowing I put them in the washing machine.

Thanks I just ordered the handles. I'll wait to cut the hammer loop off until I use the bag for a few months. You're right it might come in handy?

​@@pe-man4838it works well for hanging your impact driver on

Amazingly well. The only issue is the dirt lockers separating from one another. Dirt locker has updated the Installation instructions so it’s installed differently now, it should work. The gopher wire really helped too.

Awesome! Thanks. We had some serious erosion and seeing your video helped us determine that this is something we can do. And we're excited to get started.

it held up fantastic - I think it's due to the plants being more mature and the roots are doing their part in holding the hillside. Before the dirt locker we tried using Rancho sprinkler control to water the hillside. The Rancho would water a few minutes then shut off and do the same cycle for an hour, this help from the water running down the hill. With the dirt locker the plants are doing 100% better since the water isn't running down the hill the plants get all the water.

I used a rotating laser to set the dirt lockers, however since they twisted not all the lockers are level. The J hooks easily pierce the gopher wire.

Yes, please send your email address and we’ll reach out. We are by Mesa college.

Test....trying to reply. You tube removing because of my email.

It was basically just me - and my wife helped once in a while. Grading the hill was about 30 hours - metal mesh 4 hours - installing the dirt locker - 6 to 7 hours - filling the dirt locker about 15 hours -irrigation 6 hours - in total - about 56 to 60 work hours. Getting the materials such as dirt, irrigation and rock - about 20 hours Hope this helps

The company has reached out and offered to help fix the dirt lockers ( we had to put that on hold due to water damage to our house) however, it has held up well with the rains we got in San Diego. I will post a follow-up video soon.

Cool, I have a Tesla and I’m a Jaggoff - bonus - thanks for the comments- have a great day

I'm in the same situation. looking into a dirt locker for the steepest part of my hill. Follow-up from the original video or even a comment would help us also.

Good luck - having a hillside sucks - it's been nothing but work. When I get the time I'll do a follow up video. There are some cons to the system, but overall I'm glad it's on my hillside.

Following for updates on what your thoughts are!

@@pkher1256 to be honest, I haven't spent much time working on the dirt locker stuff,, I look outside and other than the wonky waves in the dirt locker, it appears to be working (holding up the hillside) and the plants are doing well too. I'll try and do a follow-up video soon.

I hope you post your video soon, there isn’t enough real life installation video’s, most of the video’s are produced by the manufacturer. I’m hopping the plants will help hold the Dirt locker in place once the rooting gets to the hillside soil.

@@pe-man4838 I don't know about you but I feel like I died a little bit trying to load all of that dirt in to the lockers 🤣😢

It would be great to hear from both of you on how your dirt lockers are holding up. I have a similar situation including the gophers but with a steeper slope and am contemplating using a dirt locker for the steep part of the hill.

@@alansnyder8448 my suggestion on a steep slope after dealing with my installation would be putting the dirt Lockers in one at a time meaning you would need to install each one separately using j hooks on each end and not connect them together.

100% agree - Dirt locker told me I should have installed them differently (not how the instructions told me to do so) they wanted me to unattached the lockers from the row above it and put a rebar stake in each locker. To be fair they offered to come help fix it, I waited to long to reply and they are not offering anymore. Keep me posted on what you end up doing. I'm going to do a follow up video soon.
