Muriatic acid like is used on concrete will easily remove the mill scale from your top. 10x quicker than grinding!

Why was he selling it?? Probably you are going to regret ever getting one of these things. There are much better alternatives.

That controls valve is really high dallor if it’s a major brand 😢😢😢 But this baby should last 50/100 years 😊

Hi how do I contact you for business inquiry?😊

I really appreciate when people share what they've spent and break it down like you did here. Thank you for the detailed tour! Looking forward to when you can get started up again.

That turned out awesome! Fabrication was remarkable!!! Wish I could find someone to fabricate an oven that installs in the stovepipe above the wood stove.

Why don't you get a coal base all along the bottom and then fill it completely and see how long you go with out filling it again , I bet you would go a day or more based on you only using that small radiator in the basement as your heat exchanger, definitely shows how well you insulated or how the Legos can't remember the name.of the blocks that you used to pour that basement work . Still I'm amazed at all the digging you had to do that was a lot of dirt hope building materials prices go down this year so you can finish easier .

I love that table man I'm jealous I really wish I would have went with my gut and did a 5x10 table. Everybody I talk to said I wouldn't love it and just to do a 4x8. Some of the projects that I'm getting into I really wish I had the extra length

yeah 24° is really warm. having 30° outside you need to start the ac to cool down. nice fake snow. fun aside ~ i know americans are not that much into that game of emmisions but how clean is it?

wondering did you use anti-freeze (boiler not automotive) to fill the system and auto -air eliminators? also a bladder tank for expansion/contraction so you didn't have to worry about low (water) problems? i was a boiler tech few yrs ago, did upto 5 million hp boilers.

You could have hooked that up to the old duck work.

When it get colder you may want to see if you can find a squirrel cage fan mounted behind your heat exchanger. It will put out a more heat. Just my 2 cents.😀😀😀

ya gotta stop breathing in that shit buddy

Looks great!

Good stuff!

GOOD WORK!!! see ya in the spring!

Overkill IS the best way!!!

Salutacions des de Catalunya (spain). Ho fas molt bé. Gràcies pel detall dels costos.

I like that no smoke in the house what the price oñ this stove

20 year Central Boiler CL4436. You don't really need to clean that out real often. If ashes are level with the door then maybe. My Home is 2300 squ feet. We took load every 12-14 hours. If you'd put double the wood in your go 24+ hours. Also the bigger the round the longer the burn. That unit will suck the moisture out of the wood. You can put once you get a base 7-8 inch rounds in that.

The engine is not even close to coming under load. Double the cap of the hyd pump, swap over the hyd lines to 3/4 inch.

Absolutely kewl wood stove. Great BEEFY table! I’d ad triangle braces under edges. Especially in corners

I've been a contractor most of my life and I fully understand the need to maintain usability of the structure. You have a big front yard. I think I would have been tempted to build the entire foundation a few feet in front of the existing house, completed the new laundry and bathroom in the new basement. The exterior basement walls could have been notched to accept the two primary I-beams and used a crane to pick up the whole house an set it in place on the new foundation. The addition could have been built in place. Despite the care and planning used to raise the house, leaving it elevated all of that time seems like a huge risk. Its going to plan regardless. Keep up the good work.

Why drain via pipe all the way to daylight. Just keep a ditch with riprap on the right side of the driveway

You should remove the insulation from your pump area, that pump needs air flow to keep it cool. Just insulate the pipes. Your pump will last longer.

Get your water pump in the basement you dont to change that outside in the cold have a spare on hand as well as an extra soleind for the door they will eventually go out

That is so sweet, well done sir.

Nice work. The wood stove is amazing. Would love to see the finished shop when it's done. You should do a video tour.

Excellent presentation. Thank you for sharing.

The total cost is actually not that bad considering what you just did.

Hi; I disassembled a L3E in the last days, too. One of the springs is not sabotage: it belongs to the tie-rod-lever - like you guessed already. I took 2 pictures of mounted spring and the shape of the unloaded spring -> if you like, I can send you the pictures.

I've installed several hundred boilers, the newer gasification are a pain, lots of maintenance. Your circulation pump will last alot longer if you get rid of the fiberglass insulation, the pump will overheat.

You can unbolt the head on the surface grinder and flip it, that will reverse the wheel direction. i did that on mine and its way better to use.

If I was a millionaire, I’d give you the money to finish your project just cause I’m so vested in the process! Great job so far!

Nice burner. Very clean too. There is little tar build up. Tar is your biggest enemy.

Heating tech here from Maine- remember that radiant floor heating system will require a much lower temperature water for the slab. You will need a modulation valve and depending on your setup, a blend tank to temper the water down . Your slab and piping won’t like the 180 degree water circulating through it.

Good idea with the chain! I just bought an old forklift to do this exact same thing. What about using "weld on" chain hooks to hook the free end of chain onto ROPS instead of bolting or welding on both ends of your chain?

To me, digging into the ground to build this is probably a little bit wasteful. You have a lot of space and the cheaper option would always be above ground construction. I think the only time I would see the benefit here is if it's on a hill and you want to dig in a little. This to me is a little bit of a vanity project. And it's not respecting the terrain at all. You are digging your driveway all the way into the terrain with little respect. I don't like being this negative and sorry if it comes off like that. Multi level homes with a basement in such an area and below ground level is asking for a lot of issues. And the thing of it is, it's incomplete. A single story dwelling would have been complete by now. You minus all the digging and lifting of the old house and you could have had sections of the new structure which were complete and livable.

Damn ICF isn't cheap. You might wasn't to concrete those drains in to prevent collapse which can happen with plastic pipe plus its adjacent to your driveway so could get crushed if someone drives over it.

I think you would of been better off running copper & insulate it your self then using that insulated pex tubing Copper will retain the heat longer than plastic

Bro, you’re letting cold come in insulate that temporary door

Alpine green= Detroit green.

I did a secondary backup drain around my foundation too when I built my house. Before we backfilled, it was only about $400 worth of pipe and took me a couple hours. It only gets waaaaay more expensive to do later so it’s cheap insurance 🤷‍♂️. I had an incident this summer where my sprinkler valve box for all my drip irrigation around the house next to the foundation wall sprung a leak (valve cracked) when we were out of town on vacation. Luckily my father in law heard the water running when he came to get our mail one day and shut it off. It had probably been running for at least a day because my water bill was hundreds more that month 🤦‍♂️. The foundation drain and dimple mat I installed worked wonderfully and evacuated all that water away. All the water was just draining down the dimple mat and into the perimeter drain. Zero water in the basement 😬

I love the music, it makes watching you weld so much more enjoyable.

Great music helps to drown out all those other bothersome noises like life sounds

Great video 👍👍

why not do extra foot on height would give room for all the pipes and beams and some areas would have 9 ft height!

whats bro working on? sky scrapers ?

Very good water proofing and drainage .
