Bit of advice for you. Whilst using a floor saw, make long runs in shallow passes. 50mm passes on that little saw is too deep, on bigger diesel saws 50mm would be fine. I would have done no more than 25mm at a time. Trying to cut it all in one causes more diamond wear and will cause the blade to try and rise out of the cut especially after encountering rebar. Hitting rebar will cause the water to run clear and metal fillings will be visible. Once through the bar the waste water will go cloudy again. Once you’ve breached the slab the water will run away through the cut, which is equally as bad as the heat build up with little or no cooling can cause the segments to be removed. That will give you other problems which I won’t mention. Running out of the cut will cause the blade to take the least path of resistance and you will loose your straight line. That’s very hard to pick up again. If that happens, retract the blade. Move up a foot, start cutting on the same line to get your straight line back. Then turn the saw around and from your new cut cut back into the first cut. My expertise comes from my father running Clipper before Norton took it over - becoming Norton Clipper. Myself I’ve done twenty plus years with a diamond drilling and sawing company. Hope my advice helps. Nick
Oooo. Keen to see what the wastewater treatment options are like. Your geology is so much different than the area where I’ve built systems.
There are going to be tons of things -large and small- that will go wrong or cause delays in this build. You can now add this one to a reel of things you managed to triumph over during construction. (Lots of hills and valleys to traverse along the way, but you’ll have a great home at the end!)
You should definitely do a video about where you guys started and how you got into DIY, would be really interesting to see where you started and if you had a background in construction before or you just picked it up.
Video 1, 2009, wiring a 3 pin plug. It didn't go well.
Indonesia, nyimak !
Ah, sewage. You'll want to make sewage collection as easy as possible for the drivers, trust me 👍
Good stuff Tim , punctures on sites are inevitable , plenty to keep you busy taking out and levelling up that sub floor over the steels are you going to treat them with a fire retardant coating ? Watching with interest on the steels and drainage install 👍
FWIW - I used to run my off-road Defender with tubed tires and on several occasions when I got flats it was when I’d been rock-crawling and the inner tube had separated from the valve and deflated the tyre. Seems that you can go for ages with them on flat ground but on rough ground where you can bash the valve the odds of a flat are greatly increased. I even deflated one with a wheelbarrow when I was trying to squeeze between the Defender and my workshop - hit the valve and the next day …. flat as a pancake. I no longer use tubes!
It's a good way to get a few more years out of old perished tyres on an occasional use vehicle like this but no doubt. full new set would be ideal.
A very watchable video. It seems a very thin strip that you cut out at the Southern end, won't you have to excavate to ground level and then go 900mm below that???
Great video as always;! When is all the concrete crushing happening??
I think you've set yourself up for failure by naming your dumper after somebody notoriously fragile... 😂
Humpty Dumpty likes to be looked after 😁
I hope you give Scot free Patreon access for all his help :-).
Don’t worry he does invoice us and of course gets a hamper of goodies from the farm shop too. 😁
I didn't doubt you for a second. @@TheRestorationCouple
Need a solid tyre in humpty…
Keep your toes away from that bad boy.
Did you guys win the lottery and not tell us... how the hell do you have soe much time and money to do all this. Im not jealous. At all.
That’s my thoughts as well 2 you tube channels and lots of visitors
They did sell a substantial property in Bath that they had completely renovated.
👊🫡

Can you replace with airless tyres? (Are they even available?) Or are they really expensive?
They are pretty old and bald (like their owner) A new set of tubeless would probably have survived but that's not a cheap upgrade.
It’s funny when YT channels pick the same music. At around 8min you chose the music that @BordeauxLife (always) use, so I always associate it with them, and here you are using it too! You must all be using the same library…
I use SoundStripe and was looking for music for a video once and came across a track that the Restoration Couple often use, so couldn’t bring myself to use it! 😅
