Funny you should say that about it being illegal having snow on the roof - I was driving behind a small truck a few years ago and a massive sheet of snow/Ice flew off the top/back just in front of me - scared the bollox off ov me 😂 Dave is a legend, 🙏 respect Jako 🙏
I don’t know if this has been covered in the past but it would be to hear what dave did prior to D&J, how it all started and how it grew to where it is now. Also did stevie start from after school. Keep up the great content as always guy’s
Dave you were partally right about snow on roof slpping and blocking vision but was mainly made illegal afterr snow n ice blew of vehicle at 70mph on motorway and causing major accident behind ! Fyi loving ur content as usual🇬🇧🇬🇧
Another great video , Really good idea to show some other work people have done at the end of your videos. Think will give some good ideas for more projects and maybe more work for you
What a cracking lad fin is, when you get a lad like that, you do whatever it takes to keep him, don't get me wrong all your employees are great, it maybe the videos, fin dose seem to stand out, dave and his 4x4 crocs 😂😂😂, you got some snow your end didn't you,we got about an inch of the stuff here in Liverpool, another fantastic video lads, really enjoyed it, ❤
Responsible young man Jordon is. Generous of Finn. Nice improvement on that property with the fence. My teeth chattered in sympathy of you all out and about in that Snow. Stay well. Stay safe Too bad about that fuel crap. 🤔
Love the idea of Stevie and Dave being like Tony Hart from HartBeat featuring work with that famous jingle (Stevie may have to google that one, late 80’s/early90’s) Somewhere in the corner of the screen showing a decorative Pergola will be “Baz aged 38” 😂😂😂❤
i'm retired now. when i did work as a service engineer. doing repairs on washers and dishwasher plus all the white goods. in the kitchen. snow was for me a play time. loved driveing in it. now. well i prefer to stay at home. lol. with a terminal ilness like cancer. you have to slow your self down a bit. keep up the great vids. always look forward. phil
Eyup from Dewsbury in West Yorkshire. Love you guys n gals content. I'm a recent-ish subscriber but have watch many many of your videos and actually they have helped with my mental health. Love you guys. Keep up the amazing content. I Don't leave the house much and look so much forward to your videos. Thanks a million much respect. Julian C Scatchard x
You made cracking job with the fencing,as always. You could tell you’d had enough of the jcb, just feels like wasted time. Your snow was really deep, we had snow, by NEC Birmingham, but not as thick. Those bespoke gates show your craftsmanship. Really look forward to your videos. Keep it up.😊😊😊
Wow you got quite a lot of snow ⛄️ We had no snow forecast in the south west but in my little village a few miles outside of Bath, it snowed most of the day, although it didn't settle 😠
Yeah guys we had snow as well 💜 my car is still covered not much sun to melt it 💜we have another snow weather warning for later tonight 💜so might be working from home tomorrow 😊 💜 great vid even watching you make the gates & fence panels you can learn a lot 💜xx💜💜xx
Talking of struggler ,it was you who put me on to him dave,lovely fella I've had the pleasure of spending time with,last time was at truckfest,I was meeting him there but thought I'd pop into yours on the way through and who was there grafting but our chris....
Paying the Struggler for Fosters gotta be a whole lot cheaper than paying JCB 😆 We've had bugger all snow in Swindon, can see about 1cm remnants on hill tops but that's it, no pitchin' as we say in the West (not settling). Whilst as a business, you could do without telling rest of staff not to come in, you've turned it into a positive, still making a fun and new kind of video, getting the gate done and hopefully sorted the JCB out. Keep doing what you do, everyone at D&J!
When I was in the timber game ,my favourite words were templates and jigs ,put a white board up with s list of work to be done etc use different colour markers for different products pieces of paper get lost ,also it might appear old fashioned get a duplicate book with carbon paper for writing done job measurements in that way everything is copied twice ,remember your only as good as your last job ,this is ideas that worked for me ,you do top class work lads
Loads of love to you guys, being a cabinet maker by trade, I have had to adapt to making numerous wooden items over the years, can I strongly suggest that you get a spindle moulder, surely the smell of burning wood can't be doing you all any favours, love you all, stay positive and keep the post coming,👍
@@chrisardern4594 They explained Jamie's opportunity and the people they interviewed didn't work out. Sometimes you get too busy to hire the employees that can help you. I bet they keep the hiring process in the background now and will introduce us when they find someone.
@@mineau9728 thank for the info I must have missed the Jamie leaving reason post. I also think your probably right about the interview process. Possibility they might not take anyone on until next season considering that work is a lot slower in the winter months. Watch this space.
Here in Saskatchewan we just received 20cm of snow in the last two days and we are expecting another 20cm on Saturday. Difference is it is here to stay until probably April! Driving has been a challenge. Love from Canada 🇨🇦
Hey Dave & Stevie, feeling for you having to work in the snowy weather. Those crocs look so cold to wear - get the thermals on guys. Loved seeing Pickles again, he’s gorgeous ❤. Stay warm and, above all else, safe driving around on uncleared roads 🙏👍🎅🏼
Hi to all at d&j,cracking fence job and attention to detail as Always,I'm pretty sure leaving snow on the roof is a no no,good to see you guy's still busy making gates etc,you want to get one of those wild life cameras for as cheap as £15 and you can see what animals are roaming around at night,have a good rest of the week guy's 🙂👍
Hello chaps, ohhhh snow I love snow, Kent has none! Great vlog though even with the inclement weather. I swear I could smell that cut wood at the end. Best wishes Christine x
I`ve been waiting for some snow for what seems like Donkeys Years here in Middlesbrough and you buggers get 5" jammy gits lmao... Send it this way guys, I love driving in the while stuff when others hate it? .... Keep the video`s coming gang. Well done.
*Good afternoon D and J family* 👌 You're right re JCB ....are they excellent machines..... *no doubt* but since governments made steel works redundant now its costs them and everyone else to hike their prices *BUT* they charge £30 for an o ring you could buy for pennies so its not totally out of their control ! The snow ❄️ came down here for about *12 hrs and transformed the countyside* ...i was out working last night in the early hours.... -1 to -3 ....so winter is definitely back ! *Nice work on the fencing and post renewal* 👌 Kerp warm , be safe , Gary 🙏
Defo need a grit box in yard especially with the slope you lads got out with machines. But great work and content. Can we get 4x4 dj crocks be awsome for my fishing 👍🇬🇧
Well that’s why all weather Stevie is called all weather stevie well done Finn not only costa but a take away D&J have a totally solid crew. good to see how they look after each other Ref sick note. is it possible to get a chinese make like red 2. and i so like the custom gates there spot on. I like the sound of show casing other family run small businesses on instagram.
Wow snow, looks lovely but I know from experience it is a nuisance. We are having rain at present in Queensland, Australia. Cold one week, just right the next. Take care guys.
Good afternoon D&J team wow you sure got the snow down in the midlands as were we were lucky this time and we maybe got 12 flakes 😂😂😂😂it’s no fun stuck in a wheelchair out in the snow f that for a lark now I must remember that I need firewood and I need to tidy out the log store as with all the flagging we’ve had done tools etc have been stored in the log store so they all need to be put away so we can get logs put away. Good job there Stevie and the crew you did well to get it done in a day and it looks the bees knees and I love the way you looked after the neighbour and ensured their gate closed fully and latched closed so a another well done there. See when you’re making the gates you need a domino machine for butt jointing the cross rails to the uprights and the joint will be as strong as as it’s possible to get a joint as it’s like a mortise and tenon joint. 😊😊 see you Sunday 12 👌 I love watching you guys as your so professional in all you do you do to the best of the best person’s ability and you aren’t afraid to ask someone else in the team for advice on your work. Rare stuff nowadays.keep it up plus love you share ing the love around the little guys 😊😊😊😊
Just a thought with your vacuum on the bench would it be possible to connect a y connector piece to the hose and run another hose off it to the circular saw if it’s powerful enough
Stevie, are you no longer using string lines for your long fencing runs? The fences are always still so straight but haven't seen them being used much in recent vids? Cheers
Hi Dave I agree about trucker Tim he's a great youtuber he's more into doing specialist jobs and show trucks i think he's nearer to Dains Lowe's yard then he is yours Keep up the good work
That slimy stuff in the diesel is most likely Algae, if you don't use special algae treatment it may come back. You wouldn't think Algae could live in diesel but it does.
I sold JCB Teletruks for many years, the one you have is getting on for 20 years old. The Perkins engine machines are unreliable, look for a later machine with a different engine and cutout on top of front carriage. The fuel fault looks like water in the fuel, review how you put fuel in although condensation in the tank can be a problem if tank is not kept full. If it breaks down with boom in, you can either crank starter while operating boom extend or connect a hose from another machine to power it out. Enjoy your content 👍👍👍
might be worth get a fuel bacteria testing kit and check the fuel tank, plus move away from the old 5 gallon drums to help control cross contamination.
I'm guessing the next purchase is going to be a cheaper Chinese version of the little jcb,people in the comments last week saying you should buy British and jcb etc have no idea do they
it's not illegal to drive with snow on the roof of your car. But doing so can land you in a lot of hot water. It's not worth the risk! It takes a matter of seconds to clear the snow from the top of your car, so don't neglect the roof when preparing your car for a journey on a cold day.
Thank you to all the boys & girls at D&J for all the vids even the bad weather don't stop you keep it up guys ❤
You should put a trail camera or something so we can see the animals that use your yard. When it’s closed. D&J Nature Watch.
Got a Ranger 3.2 auto, drives itself in the snow, great truck.

Diet starts next Monday... Stevie you crack me up! Finbarr is very generous you all take care of one another. :-)
Dave,
The brown sludge is were you have water in the fuel. bacteria grows between the fuel and water
Really good idea showing other companies projects and hearing your thoughts and overview on it 👍
What day off??? 😅 Top graft as always lads. J&J Gardening Services always tune in for you guys ✊🏼

Days like that where all vehicles should have all season or winter tyres fitted.
I bet yous were happy to have the ford's for our one day of snow. Great job

Try Vicary Plant for aftermarket JCB parts! Save a fortune
Yeah guys we had snow as well 💜 my car is still covered not much sun to melt it 💜we have another snow weather warning for later tonight 💜so might be working from home tomorrow 😊 💜 great vid even watching you make the gates & fence panels you can learn a lot 💜xx💜💜xx
Great work thanks
Great video D&J

Paying the Struggler for Fosters gotta be a whole lot cheaper than paying JCB 😆
We've had bugger all snow in Swindon, can see about 1cm remnants on hill tops but that's it, no pitchin' as we say in the West (not settling).

Hi guys love the video a and the job s you do in west London we have some sun but cold you all work so hard at DJ projects have a lovely week 😊😊

A bit of snowfall nice too see,time to catch up with indoor work for a day or two 👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🙋♂️Manchester
Another cracking little fence job there Stevie, what a transformation!
Gday Stevie, another great Wednesday Specail, And sounds like the JCB is not good may not be good addition with the on going costs to fix🙌😊😁
Hope the snow don’t last long ,,, it’s pure hardship
Hi Dave, try truckmasters Skegness for your jcb parts.
Also possibly heater plugs could be faulty causing bad starting in cold weather
So lucky to see snow wish we got it too
Defo need a grit box in yard especially with the slope you lads got out with machines. But great work and content. Can we get 4x4 dj crocks be awsome for my fishing 👍🇬🇧
Way to go Finn, you might want to invest in a giant vacuum attached to uour saws and router to keep the workshop reasonably clean.
Well that’s why all weather Stevie is called all weather stevie well done Finn not only costa but a take away D&J have a totally solid crew. good to see how they look after each other
Ref sick note. is it possible to get a chinese make like red 2.

Any news on the new employee for panel making
Afternoon from Bolton
Glad to hear things haven't changed I was a plant fitter back in the 80s and JCB were expensive and unreliable then.
🥶its freezing her in Denmark, no snow... yet!
Snow on Tuesday
Stevie, are you no longer using string lines for your long fencing runs? The fences are always still so straight but haven't seen them being used much in recent vids? Cheers
@@robertfuller9128 actually bought a string line this morning as I forgot mine lol
Yet another nice fencing install Stevie, well done to Jordan for turning in, and in the snow you can only do what you can to be safe 👍

That slimy stuff in the diesel is most likely Algae, if you don't use special algae treatment it may come back. You wouldn't think Algae could live in diesel but it does.
By the look of your diesel it looks like the dreaded diesel bug. You need to use Hydra FPB-77 to completely clean the fuel system.
I believe Donkey Hill in St Ann's is the steepest in Nottingham

Was wondering Dave, isn’t there an similar machine of the Chinese option to replace the small JCB 👊🏻
