Oval office is looking better now. The real treat will be after it gets occupied next year and then important agenda can commence. Rest and relaxation, getting your feet up and admiring the hard work you have accomplished.
I grew up on a farm working with my dad. At the time, I hated it because it was hard & dirty work; it was sunup until sundown 6 days a week (my dad didn't believe in working on Sunday; we went to church and enjoyed having the rest of the day off). Now that I'm older and my dad has passed away, I would give anything in the world to go back and work with my dad on the farm again. I'm glad that this project has allowed you and your son Josh to work together. 👍
You are progressing so fast, Geoff. It looks so good. Can't wait for the pour now. I'm so glad Josh is spending time helping you build the house. Those are memories that last forever. Thanks so very much for sharing.
Geoff amazing progress on your walls, It’s good to see you and Josh working together as father and son getting closer! Josh is a hard worker just like his dad! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
That’s cool how that window faces the sunrise. The front window of my living room faces the sunset, and the general direction thunderstorms typically come from. (If you don’t already have a big window facing that way, I’d recommend considering it, if it’s not too late) Great progress though!!
🇮🇪☘️🇺🇸 I’ll just sit over here in da corner I cried all the way thru statistics in college even took an extra pt job to pay a tutor-questioned how badly I REALLY wanted that Pysch degree. Lolo the house is impressive Geoff truly - what you guys have achieved is incredible! Blessings!!!
Geoff, great to see more taking place with the Bealy dream house! great seeing your son, Josh again, he has, God bless him, been such a great help in this massive project since the beginning. All these videos with him are gonna make for great memories down the line as you both get older. looking forward to the massive great pour on all this🙂
Geoff,the project is moving by leaps and bounds with every new Video,wow.great video and of course the music..👍👍 Have a Great Bealy Good concrete pour day....Time together will never be lost..
Thank you for great video and music! Look forward to next video. I know it adds a lot of work to tell project filming and editing it all. Prayers for your surgery. We will wait for you to recover. The most important things in life is family and health. 💖💖💖💖
Howdy Geoff from Southwest England, near to Glastonbury and the Ancient Isle of Avalon. Awesome progress fella, I’m well impressed and super amazed. My sincere regards and respects to all you guys. .. Take care…Dave.
Mr Bealy Good - Sir…. It’s great to hear your voice - glad you got to spend quality time with those who matter most to you. Hope you are all safe and well. Looking forward to next video whenever it’s ready.
To this Time is the Form from the ICF Mansion with the Tower in the Real Form to Recognize! A Magnificent building. Gladd my of the Video from the Congrete filling.. And then the next Stepp. 👌
It's really coming together now. Those curved walls look fabulous with the windows. Looking forward to the concrete pour. All the walls and your office floor in one pour? How much concrete have you calculated for all that? Cheers and stay safe and healthy.
Geoff, You could make a "finger board for making the relief cuts on the curved portions. Use a 2X4 along the edge and have pieces of plywood spaced as fingers. Use your jig saw, or small circular saw, use the plywood to guide the saw to make the cuts. As long as your fingers are square to the 2X4 guide. Save all the time when measuring and marking.. You can also angle the blade when cutting to have seams that match closely and have smoother joints.
Have you posted the last concrete pour? Watching the work being done for the Circle parts. How deep is Chris gonna have to dig the moat around the castle. I am glad that Josh is around to keep you straight or you keep him straight. Take it from someone who has endured several operations over my lifetime do what they tell you. Also, keep ahead of any pain by using what is prescribed thirty minutes early. Really have missed your video's lately will be thinking and a special prayer on Thursday.
Lookin good! Probably too late but I thought of an idea for a tracing template for the radius cuts. Use 1x2s to make a "ladder" looking frame that fits over the section. The cross ways blocks are spaced where the cuts go so you lay the frame on, trace the line, pull it and cut it.
Your gonna have to do a video after ya get done Geoff, Welcome to our "Crib" !! lololol... Gonna be a Hell of a house Man !! lol... getting bigger all the time. Looking Good Man !! Have a Great Evening...
I guess you have progressed much further then this video shows but I would suggest making a template, maybe in hardboard, for repetitive marking out like in the curved wall sections. Templates tend to take out not only the need to measure constantly but also to decrease overall measurement discrepancy. Certainly coming on though and looking good.
You can tell who your friends are when it's time to do unglamourous manual labor. On a completely unrelated note, Chris may need a new track loader soon... ;)
Would it be easier to stack the blocks on the ground and cut those with a track saw? That way you could do more than one at a time and the track saw would make fast work of it.
Is there going to be a second floor as well? I had thought you said you weren't doing one, but you're making a stairwell going up in one of the towers. Looks like I may be mistaken, lol.
Aren’t you supposed to be under light duty work ,until you’re problem gets resolved,just saying,been there done that,didn’t listen to the specialist,wound up taking lot more time to recuperate.great progress on the build,coming right along,gonna be spectacular when done.kudos to you,be safe.😎😎😎👍👍👍😊
Ridiculously enough I’ve been putting this off for eight years 🤣🤣. This didn’t bother me too much, but it got pretty bad during the concrete pour. Surgery is Thursday.
@@BealyGood Mark one out, dont cut it then transfer your marks to another one, scribe all your lines then cut that one leaving you a solid intact pattern, and use the pattern as your last one you need of that particular count of blocks!
I bet you will be glad to finally have your main floor concrete poured so you won’t have to deal with any more of the Nudura ICF foam blocks, at least for a while. Will the outside of your house be bricked or will you use some kind of siding? I can’t remember but I’m thinking it’s going to be a combination of materials. Will you frame the inside walls with wood to allow for plumbing and electrical? I’m just curious because I’ve never watched a complete ICF build before.
Leaning towards wood framing inside but we could do metal. I’ll definitely do videos on how that works. Outside is Brick and Stone. Might do some siding in places but doubtful.
Geoff, get you a 4 foot drywall square to use on marking. Would a 4 inch battery Dewalt circular saw be quicker to cut with? I hope you get dried in before the first freeze and winter weather.
I ended up buying one. But it’s not any better on this. It’s better for the relief cuts on the backside though. I didn’t get great video of it, but my son actually cut most of it.
I think if the cuts are the same on several pieces and the pieces can lock together, I would have stacked several at a time together, laying them down on the floor and then cut them all at once with a circular saw using a cutting guide.
I have one but the manufacturer advises against using them for this because it melts the foam and doesn’t allow the low expansion foam to bond as well.
why didn't you just mark one up and save it to transfer to all the others so you did not have to measure so many times? glad to see your back, i hope all is well.
@@BealyGood My thought was to use one of those rips of plywood so you wouldn't have to measure each time. One for each curve. Would have worked from the basement up.
@ there have been some people that did that. But each cut is different for each curves. We would need three which still would’ve been nice but we’re just not smart enough to do that. Lol.
On a repetitive project like doing the rounds, radius...shouldn't you have one l person doing layout...one cutting... And you installing... A production line...as there are so many of these you need done...would seem more efficient way to do this...just a thought...you have mentioned several times how there always seems to be people standing around....
When I mentioned people standing around, that’s during the concrete pour. Not the build. Yes, overall that would have probably been more efficient. But the people we had all had task so here we are. But it’s OK. It worked out.
Don't know this system, but at the risk of appearing stupid, why don't you measure and mark one panel and then use it as a pattern piece, offer up and copy,got to be quicker? 😊
Because once you cut it all floppy and hard to reuse. A jig would’ve been nice but no matter what you do you still have to make the cuts no matter what so it is what it is.

I find that with many repetitive cuts making a jig will save time in the long run
Great progress!
I'm gonna have to write you up about standing on top of that ladder!😂Everything is looking 👍
Been waiting for this one, slowly but surely it turns into a castle.
Awesome work, can't wait for the next one.
Enjoyed the video, Geoff! Prayers for a successful surgery Thursday and a quick recovery. Please be a good patient and follow instructions to a "T". 🙏
@@lindak.1672 nothing to worry about. I always follow directions. 👼

Love the song at the end. Fitting!!
I love it too! "Don't forget where you came from" by the Dirty Guv'nahs
Great to see another video. I thought you may have given up on TH-cam
I feel like people aren’t getting notifications. I’m putting out one video a week right now. Thanks for watching!
I believe you are correct. I haven’t received any notifications. I will check and see what I have missed. Thanks
@@BealyGood The Tube has been too busy trying to bust TH-camrs for stupid crap to actually send out notifications to subscribblers. 😖

If your going to have a Library, your going to have to think about buying a book. I would recommend getting one with big writing and lots of pictures.

Soon be ready for the roof
Looking good neighbor. Hope you can get under roof part of it.
Thank you 👍
You are welcome. Thanks for watching
Good luck hope all goes well 👍🏻🇺🇸
Can’t wait!
You can tell who your friends are when it's time to do unglamourous manual labor.

😁
this is where you make a jig to save time
That's de😅 a American castle 🏰🏯 I love it
Howdy bealy good
What a massive project. Are you going to get it poured before a freeze ❓
It’s already poured. I’m behind on editing 😁
Would it be easier to stack the blocks on the ground and cut those with a track saw? That way you could do more than one at a time and the track saw would make fast work of it.
Bealy careful! ❤
Surprised you haven't got one of those mini circular saws for cutting all that foam. Don't know if they'd cut deep enough though.
@@MikeyDunn I have one. They don’t.
Could you build a wood “buck” to lay on them with the cut lines for layout?
Yeah. Could have come in handy
Is there going to be a second floor as well? I had thought you said you weren't doing one, but you're making a stairwell going up in one of the towers. Looks like I may be mistaken, lol.
@@george8873 The stairs are going on up for attic access 🤣

Lay one out, then take another one and line it up together and transfer your layout saving yourself a lot of time! Keep the pattern!
They’re way too flimsy once cut
@@BealyGood Mark one out, dont cut it then transfer your marks to another one, scribe all your lines then cut that one leaving you a solid intact pattern, and use the pattern as your last one you need of that particular count of blocks!

What's your anticipated pour month ? How are you recovering?
Already poured. Surgery is Thursday. Thanks 😊
@BealyGood I'll say a prayer for ya.
A Jig and router would be your best bet
Jig yes, router no.
I think if the cuts are the same on several pieces and the pieces can lock together, I would have stacked several at a time together, laying them down on the floor and then cut them all at once with a circular saw using a cutting guide.
That could work. But I don’t think there’s any good way to do these things. Lol.
How do you get concrete under window casings
Waiting to see you “pour” the roof and strap/dye it to look like cedar shake 😅
lol
Jeffrey, why didn't you go hit Hobo Freight and get a hot knife to do all that cutting?
I have one but the manufacturer advises against using them for this because it melts the foam and doesn’t allow the low expansion foam to bond as well.
Hey Geoff, good to hear your voice, have you had your surgery yet? Was it a boy or a girl😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
lol. Thursday.
I make more cuts than that in a day, come on Jeff git on it son lol
why didn't you just mark one up and save it to transfer to all the others so you did not have to measure so many times? glad to see your back, i hope all is well.
The t square was the correct width. Thanks.
🤩🤩🤩👍👍👍
👍👍👍
😊😊😊
You should have made a template for all those cuts instead of measuring each one individually.
The T square was the template. The width of the small side was the correct spacing
@@BealyGood My thought was to use one of those rips of plywood so you wouldn't have to measure each time. One for each curve. Would have worked from the basement up.
@ there have been some people that did that. But each cut is different for each curves. We would need three which still would’ve been nice but we’re just not smart enough to do that. Lol.
Is there a way to cut that with a type of hot wire ?
Might make less of a mess
✌🏻🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
You can but it melts the foam and makes it not bond to the low expansion foam as well
How do you fill or pour the concrete below and above the new windows?
A couple videos ago, Josh cut holes in the bottom of the bucks and you go through there plus some of the concrete just flows under
Ok, missed that before. I’ll look for that in the next new video. Thanks
Before you know it the roof will be on. Thanks I forgot give you like
