Popular Post Cal Posted August 16, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Supposed to be raining for the next 2-3 days so I won't be venturing too far this week. For the week ahead, working on a new desk top for daughters stand up desk. Need to prep a couple cleats for the underside, bore holes for cord grommets and get some finish applied. Gunny, Fred W.

Popular Post Gunny Posted August 16, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Not sure on rain @Cal lately they have been wrong almost at 90% mark.😁 Started on replacing drain pipe for gutters on house and shop that goes to street. Had issue with clogs the last 6 feet before it hit the street. Found this at 4 ft from street. Been there 30+ years at least. I didn't install. So dug out 40 ft till it just goes under driveway. I plan to replace with 4 inch schedule 40 PVC and add a clean out. Cal, Al B, Gerald and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gunny Posted August 17, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Todays Progress: 1st cats inspected last nights work. Pipe installed and sealed up, then tested: This concrete I laid last night. It is foundation for bricks I will be using to come up and over the pipe. Above that will be a concrete plate 15 inches square with a inset 8 inch sewer line cover. WHY? This is where clean out is, and I want to not worry about running it over with my truck when I have to move vehicles around occasionally and park on that side section. Method to the madness.. Fred W.

Since our plans, at least mine, never work out, why bother? The only thing plans are good for is they might help you decide when you're done. But, even then, there's always room for just one more nail. Gunny, Fred W. Hargis Jr, FlGatorwood and 3 others 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
