Just wondering if your TH-cam presence and outstanding work ( never knew I'd find the kitchen or the whole organ project so fascinating!) has garnered media attention. Not saying that's what you're going for-but honestly, your vlogs are so superior- you deserve any and all accolades that come your way! You're better than most DIY television programs.
Everybody knows the corporate media is irrelevant, hazardous, hostile regime garbage.That's why they watch TH-cam. It is also why they won't promote or try to engage with channels, creators like this. It doesn't suit their values, agenda of deliberate, sadistic psychological warfare and manipulation.
I fast forward through Michael bits. Still salty about him giving go fund me money for his cottage to some stranger, then asking for more money again. Just lost all respect.
How they had the courage to BEGIN this project is beyond me. It is so incredibly complex and has relied on so many individuals’ lifetimes of experience and accrued knowledge that it seems nearly miraculous to me that they have jointly accomplished this. Just wow!
I agree with you completely on this! I knew they were complicated objects but didn’t really know just how complex they really are. The mind just boggles at the thought of some larger organs and how many parts are in them! Wonderful job by Nick and Michael working out where and how things fit, congratulations guys 🎉🎉🎉
I had no idea how delicate these old organs are, there are sooo many places where this amazing instrument could have an issue, they're a miracle I think when they work the way they should. Thanks so much for all the explanations.
It definitely showcases the importance of saving these works of fine craftsmanship. It would be great if Alex and the team would create a compilation video of the rebuild (reasonable length) for Father Paul and the “save the organs” group to use in their efforts. Maybe with a voiceover on things to watch out for.
Yanis has such a wonderful attitude. He's always cheerful and willing to pitch in, whether doing unskilled labor or practicing a skilled trade like plastering under the watchful eye of the master, Simon.
Yannis has certainly blossomed in his environment at the Pethericks and kudos to them for keeping him on and he's definitely one of the family now - with Mo and Sadie too !!!
I have to say your videos of the convent renovations and especially the organ rebuild is FASCINATING! I will never look at a pipe organ with any disregard again. Nick and Michael are doing a great and facilitating job!! 👍
How on earth does Michael and Nick know how this organ works? I find it to be very complicated. There seems to be literally thousands of parts and numerous functions. I admire both of these men their ability and dedication to this project. Awesome…😊
Waste not, want not… fantastic that all the scrap wood is being used for kindling. I love how the whole team can adjust to doing all the necessary jobs.
Michael is so knowledgeable and innovative and Nick is a genius at making every report positive and vividly clear, it is such a pleasure to see the excitable Michael and the serene Nick interact.
Michael and Nick are having such a good time in the chapel, it is lovely seeing Mick and Yanis reusing everything they possibly can among the various properties. Yanis is always learning, and his English is getting better so quickly, and he seems happy every time we see him. Billy glows a little more with each new task he accomplishes in the amazing kitchen he has created from his mind’s eye, and his own labour with the help of Simon and the other specialists.🖤🇨🇦
There isn't a single one of you guys that don't deserve to be commended for the hours of work you've put into that convent from it's highest peak, to the basement you utilize, to the videos you entertain us all with. Bless you for sharing yourselves with us and for each of your contributions. Hug those ladies an extra time or 2 for us for the patience they show with each of these projects but mostly for sharing you with us.
How amazing it will be when the vegies and fruit from the garden are snug in the pantry again. The pantry shelves look to be in wonderful shape. Thanks to everyone, working so hard.
A handy way to clean this Chandelier. Is to hang a large umbrella underneath. With newspapers to absorb the spray cleaner. Everything drips on the paper. So easy to do . Cheers Mate
I love that idea but the chandelier seems wider than even the largest umbrella. Maybe using the same concept with a kiddie pool under it to catch the drips. Either way definitely an easier way than alternatives that I can think of.
Thank you Alex for showing us the spooky upper floors once in a while. Don't know where you find the nerve but I'm grateful you do. I believe that if there are those from beyond inhabiting the convent they are probably very happy about what's going on for the most part. We'll see when Billy starts on the library what with taking part of the ceiling out. If anyone is going to put up a fuss it might be then. 😅 Beautiful work all around gentlemen!!! ❤
I notice in my old (1860) house, that when I start moving things about and putting a coat of paint or fixing this or that, that the spirits get a bit more active. I gotta wonder how many weird things are going on at the convent right now lol
Each time I watch Nick and Michael working on the organ I am completely blown away by the fact that this instrument was even conceived in the first place The whole concept of being able to play such beautiful music via a set of pipes which sit upon a wind chest and then bellows allow wind to push into said box is completely beyond my comprehension. How Michael and Nick have managed to put it all back together ensuring that each note is pitched correctly is absolutely astounding The organ itself is a thing of beauty and the putting it back together is a feat of pure knowledge and skill ❤
If I ever have a bucket list, I swear, visiting the convent would be at the top. It's so fascinating watching this process, and the kitchen is stunning!!
I enjoy this channel more and more every day! Yanis is coming out of his shell so much and his english is expanding 😁 it is such a great thing to witness, go Yanis!! 👏👏🙏🙌👍😀 You are all wonderful gentlemen and Mick is an inspiration, goes to show some of us never slow down else we would whither😂. Y'all have that good flow 👏👏 Blessings from Ontario Canada! ❤
Billy you are too funny, “The tax man will have to wait, I needed a chandelier “. Really gave me a chuckle. The kitchen island is lovely and that chandelier is stunning. Perfect!! Mick and Yannis you’re doing good work too. Will love the garden planting in the Spring. Good job Yannis, you’re a jewel and such a great helper to all the the Petherick s Nick and Michael I cannot express how much I’ve enjoyed your loving care in putting this organization back together and cleaning as you go… I can not wait to hear it being played by Michael. Nick your family will be happy to have you home… wishing you a happy holiday with your family. But I’m sure you’ll be back at some point. ❤❤❤ I had no doubts in my mind that you both and others that assisted would make it to Christmas so praying it’s all done before Nick leaves for home. 💫🤗🙏🙏💫🎵🎶🎼🎤🎹🎻🎷.
Alex is doing such a marvolous job with the video's... have to say.... The kitchen is looking wonderful each time I see it ... looking better and better every day... And grand use of all that old lathe... and getting the storage room all cleared up as well... The organ is coming along amazingly... Daddy Moon and Michael are doing a fantastic job with such a massive project... dare I say Puzzle... can't wait to hear it play...
I once heard from an old wood worker that when you sand to open a grain you should work on the piece right away. When it is left to sit over night the grain shuts down a bit. Chandelier is perfect! Your dad must be so proud of how handy his kids are including his adopted son Yanis 😊
That chandelier ...just gorgeous!!! Nick and Michael are doing an amazing job with the organ. They show and explain everything so well that I feel like I am ready to play an organ!! :) I just love how Alex captures everything and matches the music...awesome job!! :)
I think that Gwen is going to love the kitchen when it is finished. She can work in the kitchen and listen to the organ, watch Ernest run around the huge island and just enjoy life. How amazing this is all turning out to be. Gentlemen you all are doing what needs to be done and the work is beautiful. Have an amazing day
I loved the views of the Convent both external and internal Alex, great camera work. The kitchen bench looks fabulous especially under that gorgeous Chandelier Billy. Mick and Yanis are always working hard keeping things going in the backgroynd. Nick and Michael you are both amazing with the amount of work you have done with the Organ. Well done everyone 💕🇦🇺
Greetings again from "The Gateway to the West", USA. This organ assembly has truly been a tall task. Michael & Nick have done a brilliant job and I am in awe of the talent each has. It has been such a joy to watch the genius of these two.
Hello everyone! The attention to detail is great, from setting up the organ (some pipework!) to coating the centre island with varnish and clearing the wood from the celar - so entertaining!! Best wishes from Lincolnshire
Billy, after the OSMO drys, you can lightly rub it down using OOO or OOOO steel or brass wool. It will smooth out the finish beautifully. I restore antique furniture and other wood items. It works perfectly and gets rid of any brush marks.
I look forward to your videos everyday. The organ reassembly has been amazing! I don’t understand much of the technicalities but feel like I’m gaining a true appreciation of the structure. Love watching Mr. Pethrick and Yanis. Such hard working fellows. As I have previously stated, the kitchen is amazing! Thank you
What a great pair of workers Yanis and Papa Petherick they are like the Duracell Bunny they just keep going on and on. It's brilliant to see family and friends working so hard together. Very inspirational. Well done all.
You are working on the organ with such care and love for what you are doing, it's such a pleasure to watch. The kitchen is wonderful. Again, the care and attention incredible. Thank you so much for the amazingly professional program.x
I think one of the wooden garden shelves would look great in the kitchen. Maybe an 8 foot length. Use for pots or bulk storage in copper tins. The kitchen looks so beautiful!!! You have all left your mark on it and can be so proud!!
I'm insanely jealous of Billy getting to do all that sanding & oiling 😅. I love nothing more than sanding an old, dry, tired piece of wooden furniture/doors etc & bringing it back to something rich, fed & beautiful. Everytime I see footage of the main, grand staircase I itch to work on it 😂
I just have to applaud Ennis. His work ethic is so superior to other young men that I have ever seen. What an asset to you and your team! He seems to enjoy the work too!
I'm fascinated by how the organ works. So much I never knew. It's a beautiful instrument inside and out! Thanks so much for restoring her and for bringing us along.
This has been quite the adventure, watching you all work. Alex, I hope you get video of the look on Simon's face when he returns and sees the kitchen for the first time. Even if he's watching the videos, I'm sure the first time he's there in person will be pretty impactful.
It’s so relaxing to watch you osmoing Billy, the chandelier reflects beautifully off it. I’ll miss seeing the organ being rebuilt but look forward to hearing it be played xxx💕💕💕
The kitchen is looking great.Can't wait to see how it looks when it's finished.Nick and Michael are becoming organ experts.Hearing them talk about it and how it works,shows how that they are experts at this.Add this to their repertoire of things they can do.What can't they do?
These videos are so well made. So well edited and with very beautiful music. I look forward to them every night and sometimes put on old ones again as I work though the day.
The scale of your renovation project is truly ambitious, showcasing your dedication and vision. As you transform this large building, envision the positive impact it will have on the community. Your efforts are making a lasting difference!
We love you Yanis! Always hard working with a positive approach and eager to learn. Happy to see you are in good hands with this amazing team. Keep your heart pure ❤
It’s amazing how the original organ builders knew how to do and create this beauty without technology/ computers electrical gadgets craftsmanship right there. Fab that Michael and Nick are able to replicate it. Amazing
Great vlog again Billy / Alex. The opening sequence reminds us that the Covent is still big not just the chapel and kitchen. Super looking island now. All looking good. The organ is coming along and plans for tweaking. Stay well you all.
Billy looks so very happy these days, so much activity and progress with things finally coming together so well; I am so happy for him! The others sem to be enjoying their work as well, what could be better! Billy is definitely his element, and I can hardly wait for the first event at the convent! Hopefully, an organ Christmas carol event! All props to Alex as well! ❤
Really love that you are cleaning and preserving the organ and chapel ceiling. Love the faded grandeur look you are creating. If everything looked stark and new it just wouldn’t be the same. Fantastic work, it has found the right custodians. ❤
Great work everyone, just wanted to say with no offence intended, Yanis with his green gloves, looked like a Christmas Elve, helping to deliver the warmth ❤
Billy,Michael,Mic,Yanis,Nick, and Alex my holiday elf’s. So good to see the progress taking place on the organ and kitchen. Happy holidays. Looking forward to Michael playing the organ. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🙏🌞😇🌹👍❤️🌈🇺🇸🕊🎅🎄☃️
The beautiful chandelier is the perfect scale for a room that large. The island just keeps getting better. This kitchen is Wow right now. It will be over the top when complete.
You gotta love Yannis, such a good worker, & a quick learner. I have watched this kitchen from start to finish & the transformation is nothing short of amazing.
Well Billy I used to run a lighting business and yes that chandelier is certainly a pretty penny!! But worth it all! It’s like accessorizing the ball gown and voila, picture perfect! I am so enjoying your content guys, you all contribute so much to the community you have! Every aspect is top notch! Tx can’t wait to see and hear the organ completed and playing. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦😊👏🏼💕👍🏼
Whatever the price that chandelier cost, it is the crowning glory. Just imagine someone designing it, the glass Crystal's being cut. It's amazing. The vlogs now are wonderful . it all makes my mornings. Thank you Billie and your dream team for entertaining a grandma. WCL
Your labors of love in this whole project is admiral an gives hope to many of your watchers thank you all for being such pleasant individuals. God bless.
Fascinating filming and content, always...those Pethericks and their A-Team...wow,wow,wow!!! Magic in motion,audible (with great music today)...Oh, my.!!. Builders, Creators, Movers, Shakers and Magicians.. Spectaculars, yes!!!
We call the base boards on cabinets “ kick plates” . A newer usage for them as part of central vacuum system in newer homes and kitchens, there are vacuum sucker vents, about a foot wide, that are opened by a button you touch with your toe. Once open it sucks the dirt you’ve swept up from the floor so you don’t have to bend over to use a dustpan. Comes in very handy but heaven forbid anything wet gets in there, it’s a bugger to clean the pipes out, you basically have to dismantle it. The kitchen is looking amazing👍🏼and the organ is making great progress👍🏼🙋🏼♀️
Michael for your own health please wear a mask when blowing out all the dust from the organ pipes as you do breathe in that dust. The lead will stay on your hands till you wash them thoroughly with soap and water. Please make sure not to touch your face, eyes, mouth, or food after you have handled lead as it can get into your system. I used to do leadlight windows and my teacher always stressed these points. You are doing a bloody fantastic job all of you. Billy your kitchen cabinet, is looking beautiful. Ozmo should sponsor you as you use so much of their product and promote it free of charge lol. Keep up the great work everyone love watching all you do. Thank you all so much for sharing.
Hey Alex, good job on the pacing of the video. I like the lengthier montages of work, followed by all the discussions of everything grouped up. See yall tomorrow!
It is nice to see the effort and love going into the wonderful delicate organ wether you are professional or not. You are now. And I believe many of us could take your group of friends as examples of what good work and professionalism can and should be. Thank you all so much.
Just wondering if your TH-cam presence and outstanding work ( never knew I'd find the kitchen or the whole organ project so fascinating!) has garnered media attention. Not saying that's what you're going for-but honestly, your vlogs are so superior- you deserve any and all accolades that come your way! You're better than most DIY television programs.
Yes, I have asked if there has been any local reporting in press or TV 🤔😊
I think you deserve your own TV series. X
Everybody knows the corporate media is irrelevant, hazardous, hostile regime garbage.That's why they watch TH-cam. It is also why they won't promote or try to engage with channels, creators like this. It doesn't suit their values, agenda of deliberate, sadistic psychological warfare and manipulation.
I can’t agree more, an excellent presentation from all concerned. 😊
I completely agree 💯! I don't even care that much for organ music but seeing what's involved is changing that opinion. 😊✌️
Nick and Michael work well together as a team. They even complete each other sentences. Great job all around.
People hit the like button. These vlogs deserve far more.
I know it’s amazing the difference between views and likes!
I totally agree!
Thanks for reminder, God bless you dear Fans who participate.
🤣i like one time and look twice or more
Always the first thing I do 😊
Loving the cinematography Alex. Michael needs ‘“an Alex” so he can post to his channel again. It’s been so lovely seeing more of him lately ❤
He has relaxed and blossomed working with the lovely encouraging Nick.
I fast forward through Michael bits. Still salty about him giving go fund me money for his cottage to some stranger, then asking for more money again. Just lost all respect.
How they had the courage to BEGIN this project is beyond me. It is so incredibly complex and has relied on so many individuals’ lifetimes of experience and accrued knowledge that it seems nearly miraculous to me that they have jointly accomplished this. Just wow!
I agree with you completely on this!
I knew they were complicated objects but didn’t really know just how complex they really are. The mind just boggles at the thought of some larger organs and how many parts are in them!
Wonderful job by Nick and Michael working out where and how things fit, congratulations guys 🎉🎉🎉
Well said 👏🏻👏🏻
The sisters who lived here over the years are smiling down from heaven and thanking you for preserving this amazing convent!!
I had no idea how delicate these old organs are, there are sooo many places where this amazing instrument could have an issue, they're a miracle I think when they work the way they should. Thanks so much for all the explanations.

Yannis has certainly blossomed in his environment at the Pethericks and kudos to them for keeping him on and he's definitely one of the family now - with Mo and Sadie too !!!
He's a working machine! There's no stopping him!
I'm going to miss all the fun interaction when the organ is finally completed. Nick and Michael are a great act
I’m planning on watching it all over again during the holidays!
I think Michael & Billy could explain how dirt is made and I would watch it for hours. So talented in how they know how to fix things. ❤
Right??
😂
The chandelier is gorgeously placed! Everyone is doing such a wonderful job.
I have to say your videos of the convent renovations and especially the organ rebuild is FASCINATING! I will never look at a pipe organ with any disregard again. Nick and Michael are doing a great and facilitating job!! 👍
Watch Ben Maton visiting small churches with pipe organs. Like them even more
How on earth does Michael and Nick know how this organ works? I find it to be very complicated. There seems to be literally thousands of parts and numerous functions. I admire both of these men their ability and dedication to this project. Awesome…😊
I know they took photos when it was disassembled but still…..
To get to the actual workings is another level of knowledge.
Waste not, want not… fantastic that all the scrap wood is being used for kindling. I love how the whole team can adjust to doing all the necessary jobs.
It's wonderful, isn't it. 😊
Yes, I was thinking of the nursery rhyme, one,
Nick and Michael you are brilliant, Alex without you, no one would know...
Wow!!!!!!!! That kitchen!!!!!!! Absolutely stunning!!!!!!! Everyone is doing such amazing things.... 👍❤️👍, and what human dynamo is Janis!!!!😊
That beautiful chandelier is the icing on the cake!
Michael is so knowledgeable and innovative and Nick is a genius at making every report positive and vividly clear, it is such a pleasure to see the excitable Michael and the serene Nick interact.
Michael and Nick are having such a good time in the chapel, it is lovely seeing Mick and Yanis reusing everything they possibly can among the various properties. Yanis is always learning, and his English is getting better so quickly, and he seems happy every time we see him. Billy glows a little more with each new task he accomplishes in the amazing kitchen he has created from his mind’s eye, and his own labour with the help of Simon and the other specialists.🖤🇨🇦

The Old Pantry is one of my favorite features of the Kitchen
How amazing it will be when the vegies and fruit from the garden are snug in the pantry again. The pantry shelves look to be in wonderful shape. Thanks to everyone, working so hard.
A handy way to clean this Chandelier. Is to hang a large umbrella underneath. With newspapers to absorb the spray cleaner. Everything drips on the paper. So easy to do .
Cheers Mate
I love that idea but the chandelier seems wider than even the largest umbrella. Maybe using the same concept with a kiddie pool under it to catch the drips. Either way definitely an easier way than alternatives that I can think of.
@@pats8219
Beach umbrella 🤣
yes.. there are enormous umbrellas and parasols out there. @@assassinlexx1993
Brilliant, definitely going to use this hack! Thanks for sharing! Keri💜
Maybe one of those patio umbrellas might be large enough for the chandelier?@@pats8219
The beauty of doing all the organ reconstruction yourselves is that you will have the knowledge needed to do ongoing maintenance and repairs.
Thank you Alex for showing us the spooky upper floors once in a while. Don't know where you find the nerve but I'm grateful you do. I believe that if there are those from beyond inhabiting the convent they are probably very happy about what's going on for the most part.

Trust a Canadian to have such positive pleasant comments! Yay Canada !! Eh ?!!
Could you show us in your next video with the chandelier looks like in the kitchen at night with all the other lights off ?
Billy you are too funny, “The tax man will have to wait, I needed a chandelier “.
Really gave me a chuckle. The kitchen island is lovely and that chandelier is stunning. Perfect!!
Mick and Yannis you’re doing good work too. Will love the garden planting in the Spring. Good job Yannis, you’re a jewel and such a great helper to all the the Petherick s
Nick and Michael I cannot express how much I’ve enjoyed your loving care in putting this organization back together and cleaning as you go… I can not wait to hear it being played by Michael.
Nick your family will be happy to have you home… wishing you a happy holiday with your family. But I’m sure you’ll be back at some point. ❤❤❤
I had no doubts in my mind that you both and others that assisted would make it to Christmas so praying it’s all done before Nick leaves for home. 💫🤗🙏🙏💫🎵🎶🎼🎤🎹🎻🎷.

Gwen mentioned her plans in a previous video but I don't recall what she said about the kitchen. I do recall she has some events in mind.
I Apologize for offending your sensibilities but being a baker I always want to try out a new kitchen to see what it can do.@@janetpendlebury6808
The chandelier is beautiful and perfect there !

So happy to see you using that wood instead of dumping it ❤
Thank you for your comprehensive coverage of the convent activities today. There is so much going on and it's fantastic to hear everyone.
I cant wait to see the revitalization of that grand staircase 😊😊😊😊

Everytime I see footage of the main, grand staircase I itch to work on it 😂
I felt that when I applied Danish wax to a dried out wall of tongue and grooved Blackwood. I could feel it sucking up the fluid.
I just have to applaud Ennis. His work ethic is so superior to other young men that I have ever seen. What an asset to you and your team! He seems to enjoy the work too!
I'm fascinated by how the organ works. So much I never knew. It's a beautiful instrument inside and out! Thanks so much for restoring her and for bringing us along.

Less than a month and Simon is back.
Billy's an unassuming genius! So is Dad, Michael & Mr. Moon & Yannis!
I have to say - the kitchen looks awesome now the chandelier has been installed. 👍
It’s been so amazing to see and watch the convent renovation from the start!! Billy I admire your commitment and vision and respect for this project ❤

I love that your pantry is bigger than my house! 😁 You're all doing such beautiful work! Carry on! 🫡😁💖
Yanis is such a hard worker! He is always helping out with whatever he is asked to do. So enjoyable watching Yanis!!
Beautiful chandelier but would prefer a modern light for the kitchen and move the chandelier into a different room.
The kitchen looks great! Beautiful chandelier.
Great vlog again Billy / Alex. The opening sequence reminds us that the Covent is still big not just the chapel and kitchen. Super looking island now. All looking good. The organ is coming along and plans for tweaking. Stay well you all.
What an incredible undertaking installing this organ is. Well done. Can't wait to see a concert.

The others sem to be enjoying their work as well, what could be better! Billy is definitely his element, and I can hardly wait for the first event at the convent!

Interior, organ dust- could I suggest that you put on an air filter on the air intake to the blower of the Organ !
Billy your chandelier looks wonderful and your long kitchen cabinet you’ve been working on looks great too!
Billy,Michael,Mic,Yanis,Nick, and Alex my holiday elf’s. So good to see the progress taking place on the organ and kitchen. Happy holidays. Looking forward to Michael playing the organ. Until tomorrow. Please, take care and stay safe. Love ya 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🙏🌞😇🌹👍❤️🌈🇺🇸🕊🎅🎄☃️
I wonder how many kg of dust they exported from the UK in that organ... 😉
Michael & Nick are such a great team. MIchael's brain is such a wondrous computer!!!
The beautiful chandelier is the perfect scale for a room that large. The island just keeps getting better. This kitchen is Wow right now. It will be over the top when complete.
How do you two know so much about organs? I didn't realise there is so much involved!!! It's amazing, your knowledge!
It breaks my brain that there is even anyone still alive that would have that sort of knowledge nevermind complete disassembly and restoration! 🤯😃
You gotta love Yannis, such a good worker, & a quick learner. I have watched this kitchen from start to finish & the transformation is nothing short of amazing.
The kitchen is beautiful. So proud for u an your family. Organ moving along . Thank u for sharing 😊😊😊
No worries: 'The Tax Man' is probably a subscriber who puts off his work to watch.
The chandelier for the kitchen is a perfect fit, and the kitchen is really starting to look like a kitchen.
Mick and Yanis, Michael and Nick, Billy, total awesomeness. ❤
Well Billy I used to run a lighting business and yes that chandelier is certainly a pretty penny!! But worth it all! It’s like accessorizing the ball gown and voila, picture perfect! I am so enjoying your content guys, you all contribute so much to the community you have! Every aspect is top notch! Tx can’t wait to see and hear the organ completed and playing. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦😊👏🏼💕👍🏼
Whatever the price that chandelier cost, it is the crowning glory. Just imagine someone designing it, the glass Crystal's being cut. It's amazing. The vlogs now are wonderful . it all makes my mornings. Thank you Billie and your dream team for entertaining a grandma. WCL

We call the base boards on cabinets “ kick plates” . A newer usage for them as part of central vacuum system in newer homes and kitchens, there are vacuum sucker vents, about a foot wide, that are opened by a button you touch with your toe. Once open it sucks the dirt you’ve swept up from the floor so you don’t have to bend over to use a dustpan. Comes in very handy but heaven forbid anything wet gets in there, it’s a bugger to clean the pipes out, you basically have to dismantle it. The kitchen is looking amazing👍🏼and the organ is making great progress👍🏼🙋🏼♀️
Kick plates under cabinets are recessed and baseboards/skirting are around the base of cabinetry that extends straight to the floor.
Michael for your own health please wear a mask when blowing out all the dust from the organ pipes as you do breathe in that dust. The lead will stay on your hands till you wash them thoroughly with soap and water. Please make sure not to touch your face, eyes, mouth, or food after you have handled lead as it can get into your system. I used to do leadlight windows and my teacher always stressed these points. You are doing a bloody fantastic job all of you. Billy your kitchen cabinet, is looking beautiful. Ozmo should sponsor you as you use so much of their product and promote it free of charge lol. Keep up the great work everyone love watching all you do. Thank you all so much for sharing.
Hey Alex, good job on the pacing of the video. I like the lengthier montages of work, followed by all the discussions of everything grouped up. See yall tomorrow!
The kitchen is just stunning ❤🎉 Billy. Nearly done Michael and Nick loved watching. Crack on ❤
The chandelier looks like it has always been then. What an amazing addition to your beautiful design.
It is nice to see the effort and love going into the wonderful delicate organ wether you are professional or not. You are now. And I believe many of us could take your group of friends as examples of what good work and professionalism can and should be. Thank you all so much.
Truth is stranger than fiction! Who could’ve planned these activities and this journey of the Pethericks Doing it themselves. Just Amazing!
Wow that kitchen is beautiful! And the organ is getting there, those shelves in the pantry are amazing!
Can't wait for the organ to be complete. This has been an exciting journey. I don't know how you all managed it. God Bless.
osmoing, pressure cleaning the pipes. The copper pipes and wooden dowels ❤ Love it all.
The chandeliers have really pulled the rooms together and added a very refine touch!
Love how the Kitchen is turning out! The chandelier is perfect, But I lust after the center island! And that Lovely Organ rebuild!
