I wonder why these conduit installations don’t require the largest conduit to be installed at the time? The need for additional fiber will ALWAYS be needed in the future. I foresee the need for additional horizontal boring in the near future for growth in this area.
Crazy that you’re allowed to dig without a spotter. I’m in the utility business, but I put in gas lines for gas companies. You cannot dig nothing without another man there to spot.
So how do you terminate the cable? Connectorize the fiber ends, or splice on pre-terminated pigtails?
those weak weed kidz at 33:48 always crying about work
Keep your eye out for a 2" conduit hickey that might make finessing those ducts in to place easier.
Don’t you have a wheel on a hand truck that’s battery operated? If not you should look into one.
So,can someone explain why the US is so hesistant to use 14-18mm Microducts with 288-576f cables? If they just laid a 7x14mm duct rather than 2 single ones this whole thing would have been a lot easier.
The government pays for most of these projects to be done. Yes, it’s through companies like AT&T, Verizon and other things, but it all comes from the government, also a lot of cities and counties have certain rules like the county I live in if you’re placing down the street you must pull back a minimum of 4 2in ducts, no matter what you’re putting in you must have those 4. 2 inch ducks for future expansion
I would like to see a revisit to each vault when the pull was finished at the end, just to see and understand what it looks like after installation.
That tape eruption was amazing. Wonder if that’s ever happened to you like that.
LOVE IT! Thanks for this !! Liked and sub'd. too!
No room for future proofing. Whoever designed this put in small handholes, no extra conduits and small fiber cables. Never mind, what happens to the tracer wire overtime when you use indoor cable like that. Great work on your part.
I like your fiber puller awesome I always just use track on minne wrap it around same way
Wouldn't it be easier to get a small battery-powered winch to pull the fiber? You do this every day so it seems odd not to have a better process than pulling by hand.
is there a central city/counter database that you need to tell where you installed the wiring?
What’s on the law end of long stick
sorry , I did not have my fiber glasses on and we thought we were below , damn .
Very interesting to see you intercept a current fiber . The trace wire that gets used as a tracer will need to be secured back with a new wir and then a second trace to the previous Good to see the final of a fiber / tube pull to completion
What’s the diameter of that wheel?
Stellar work! Is Part 8 going to be Wes and Dane winding all of the mule tape back on the spools?
That mule tape explosion was amazinf
That was great it reminded me of party streamers
16:14 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nice pot holes.
Was this an issue of improper marking, or the driller not taking proper care? Should that have been pot holed, or what would you have done differently to avoid this?
The locates were messed up. The company marking it bled off on something else. So the damage could have happened to anyone. Also there was a box they could have located it more accurately from that was only 50’ away from the damage, problem was the box was covered with dirt and rock and was not reflected on the prints. If I was the one drilling it I would have double verified utilities with my Locater and that may have helped me avoid damaging it.
That sucks. Had something similar happen once when we were using a rock wheel trencher to put fiber optic across a main street in Oakland between two wings of a hospital, and Locate hadn't marked the water main the whole length of the area... If I walked 100 feet in either direction it was marked clearly, but that night we had only checked 50 feet in each direction lol The guy on the rock wheel had a geyser coming up behind him, was quite impressive. The rock wheel only cut about a 3rd of the way through the cast iron water main, and the carbide teeth basically machined it, it was a perfect smooth cut, no breakage. They were able to just clamp a repair sleeve over it with the water still flowing gently and get it back on quickly. We decided not to do anymore rock wheel work after that, paranoia of what was under there was too strong! Lol @@lifeasweknowit5280
Take their drill pipe as principal

I’m tie back guy driller clean a 40series hammer and you Han hang take a 60 series off of the rig and you are freaking hurcules
I don’t have time to go to the gym ha ha
👍
I just started the directional drilling crew at my isp running a 10x15. Your videos have been so helpful while we're figuring this process out! Thanks for the great content.
Awesome man! What part of the country do you work in?
Too small of a pilot bore ?happened to me more than once
Now that was new , they should have called before they dug ! good job someone knows how to repair the pipe and there was enough to get to that ped box !
Is there much torsional spring with each additional rod added? Such as if you want a 6 ot 9 it springs past it or not enough from the machine end.
Yes there is a lot of torsional flex/spring. It’s not real noticeable on short shots. As more rods are added it’s more noticeable. Ground conditions also play a big role in it. On that particular drill, the rods are 10 foot long with threads at each end. Every time we add a rod we put anti-seize grease on the threads to prevent over torquing. That is directly related to torsional flexing.
Good work!
that sucks

Wow, 5!
Yikes. Nightmare fuel
She's cute
Bin there done that, got the t shirt
Typical of having wires wrapped around your stem
I've always wondered how they use that machine. Well now I know
Hey bubba I just graduated highschool and work with a company similar to the work you do (exactly like it haha) I’m thinking about going back but I’m trying to study the prints a little before hand to get fimlair with another side of it. Do you have a email or instagram to which you could send me some. Awesome job by the way!
When all these are complete the digital currency and global LOCKDOWNS will be much easier for corrupt governments to control the population
😬
I'm guessing tree roots don't cause much of a problem?
No they aren’t a problem unless we hand dig.
I'm familiar with the colors for marking utilities but what's purple fo? How many machines do you have?
Purple is irrigation, we paralleled 4 inch line. We have 3 drills and 2 plows.
Nice quick drill and pull man
Thank you!
Thank you for your hard work. Keep it up
Will do! Thanks
Is that for fiber optic or electricity
Fiber optic
make sure you schedule your drilling right after they put down the new sod 😇
What do you fill the potholes with?
Squeegee and flow fill
Thanks man, you too!
