[00:00:28]What's up, guys? Welcome back to another video. Thanks for joining us. Really appreciate you guys here. Cuz guess what? You guys could have chose somebody else's video and you chose ours. So, big up on yourself. Much love, right? Yes.

[00:00:39]So, let me show you what we are going to take on this [music] morning, right? So, guess what happened. If you do subscribe, please subscribe to the channel. Really appreciate it.

[00:00:48]Me and my guys I brush it in the yard.

[00:00:50]So, you know, I cut it in the yard. So, you are going to hear a little walk of knives, [music] right? So, stay with me with that. All right now, guys. So, the last video on the see on the see when we run up this wall. When I see when me run up this wall. Why me always I say on the see when [music] we I know me. Yeah, me and Farrakhan alone. So, what we are going to do, guys? We are going to nail up the boxing them and get them cash.

[00:01:11]But, we put on the outside piece them already, guys. You have to tell the walker.

[00:01:17]You know? We put on the outside piece them already.

[00:01:20]You know? So, we are going to just nail on the inside piece them. And then after we can get the cash, right? So, stay tuned and watch what I'm going to do. Me and I are on the outside. So, before me nail it on the go explain to you. We put a pipe in there. So, we are going to explain to you and tell you where pipe be, right? So, this is a water pipe, guys. So, why me put the water pipe in there? Because me plan to put a black jump on top of it, right? Yes. So, you know say the black jump when we are going to put on top of it can't feed this section of the house, right? So, this pipe now, this pipe directly have to full the black jump.

[00:01:53]When it empty, we use this pipe full the black jump. We have a next pipe there.

[00:01:57]We we come right down to the bathroom and the kitchen, you see? Yeah, right off there.

[00:02:02]So, my thing, guys, you have to plan ahead cuz remember me no like see pipes drop on wall. Me no like we see wire up on wall. Me no like we see all of that, so we going to put it in at the column, right? So, you have to just think ahead, right? So, at [music] that that pipe run. So, we have a 2-ft box in here, guys, cuz you know say the column wide.

[00:02:23]So, we going to put a 2-ft box in here.

[00:02:25]I mean I like See how much of rain we have fall, guys? The boxing them heavy cuz the water soak. Full of water in there.

[00:02:34]So, it really heavy.

[00:02:41]So, this is a side of the thing.

[00:02:43]Plumb.

[00:02:44]I know this is just a flat column, but you still want to make the um the boxing straight, guys. You don't want it to lean over. You understand? So, we still want it to be straight. So, we just go ahead and plumb it.

[00:02:56]Just use a soap marker line.

[00:02:58]That means if you shift you know what you shifting off.

[00:03:20]I mean I always tell you know if you concrete what I put in at the block hole, if you don't good, the nailing not going to hold properly, right? So, you have to make sure you say whenever time you have fill a block hole, your block pocket, make sure say your concrete good.

[00:04:03]>> So guys, I don't want to put this 2 by 6 here.

[00:04:05]I use something to brace it.

[00:04:07]And the reason being why you have braces, guys, anytime the boxing wide, you know what I'm saying? You have to brace it, right? Cuz even though the nails them hold good, you still want to brace it cuz if you don't brace it, guys, some of the time it will bulge out and you have to dig it out, right? And if you notice me, me no deal with digging.

[00:04:25]How you have jackhammer dig out back wall, me no really deal with that, guys.

[00:04:29]>> [music] >> So either you brace it or you twitch it.

[00:04:32]You bore it and put wire through it on the other side and twitch it. Either you brace it or you do that. But we just have to go ahead and brace it, right?

[00:04:39]Cuz you know see me twitch some of the corner one them in a previous video.

[00:04:44]Right? So So you have to do it.

[00:04:47]You get your thing. The the the the um the column them strong on the wall properly. You have to do these things.

[00:04:58]All right now, so this now, guys, we're not going to we're not putting the brace here so yet because we're going to mix the concrete first before we put on the brace cuz we don't want it in the way, right?

[00:05:09]So we just nail on this a piece of so this good. So we're going to go ahead now and deal with the corner one. So we're going to go ahead now and use them two piece of board here.

[00:05:16]But we're going to just nail on this on the other side.

[00:05:23]On this one.

[00:05:25]Remember this is a corner.

[00:05:30]So what we have to do is just satisfy the straight edge.

[00:05:34]I don't want the two edge straight, but I always want to find a better edge here.

[00:05:42]Nail it on like that.

[00:05:46]You have to make sure that the bottom flush. flush.

[00:05:50]Make sure say your board is equal.

[00:06:12]All right, so this is what we always do, guys.

[00:06:15]Make sure say your column foot clean out properly. Right? So, any cement bag where you did use back off block off the the concrete when you are casting the the beam, make sure you clean it out properly. Right? You don't want put the concrete on any bag or any debris. So, make sure you clean out your column foot good. You understand?

[00:06:35]Yeah.

[00:06:44]>> [music] >> Guys, you don't have to have to use no level here, so cuz too it's small.

[00:07:01]Corner small. Can just use the string on the wall properly.

[00:07:36]So, you know what I'm saying? This is a corner one I don't need for you to brace because it's small.

[00:07:42]So, that no plus a column.

[00:07:44]So You know, that hold properly.

[00:07:47]So we just have to brace this one. But you know what we are going to do now? We are going to go on mix up the material.

[00:07:53]Mix up the concrete so we can cast it, right? After when we mix up we then we can put the brace upon that.

[00:07:58]All right? Yeah, man. Everything good.

[00:08:00]So easy. Yeah, stay tuned.

[00:08:03]Welcome back, guys. Morning again.

[00:08:06]Morning again. Welcome back. Up and running.

[00:08:09]So the last time, guys, not the last time. On the same video still. But you know say when we nail up the two column, right? And we tell you know say we are going to get it cast now.

[00:08:20]But guess what happened, guys?

[00:08:21]We end up sick out so we couldn't get to cast them. So them two column here nail up for a while now, right? So we feel a little better.

[00:08:30]We are not 100 yet, but we feel a little better.

[00:08:32]So we are going to try and see if we can cast them.

[00:08:36]Even I could even one of them today. You know, we are going to see if we can cast them cuz I am alone, guys. And then guess what? Wife you know want me up here now, you know, cuz she knows we are not 100 yet, but we feel much better, guys. But we are not 100 yet, so wife you know really want me up here.

[00:08:53]But you know, once we are feeling better, guys, we have to do something.

[00:08:57]We can't just be in the house, you know, guys. We can't be in the house. We have to be in the house. We have to be outside. We have to do something.

[00:09:02]So we are going to go on and take on I could even one as we say.

[00:09:06]You know? But what we do, guys, normally we usually carry up the the cement them in a one. So what we do for make it light up on me, we just put some of the cement in the bucket, right? For make it light up on me. So you see? So we kind of work a little bit smarter, you know. Right? Cuz we don't want to get sick again cuz wife you would have mashed me up this time cuz you warned me, you know. You know I am going to come up here this morning. But we have the cement them, so you know, we have to do a little something, guys. That is me that.

[00:09:36]You know? So I just a little part of me have left. So, me me want to get them two column the cast up. Then after we can pull it down and I finish nail up the the belting and get it cast, all right? Yeah, but me go see me go take time and go and work there.

[00:09:50]You know? Nobody accuse me, you know? Me I take me little time and go and work cuz me say a me one [music] me go see. I could have one me a cast today, right?

[00:09:58]So, stay tuned, right?

[00:14:56]>> [snorts] >> All right, now guys, so anyway, so we finish this one.

[00:15:04]And we did go ahead and mix up a next batch, guys, cuz the first batch couldn't finish this one. So, I'm going to go ahead and mix up a next batch. So, we start this one already, guys.

[00:15:14]And this one may I feel. So, may just I got just full the the poor them and done, all right?

[00:18:24]Rain a dew, guys.

[00:18:26]Rain a dew, so we finish the right time.

[00:18:31]Real time.

[00:18:34]If you close, please close.

[00:18:36]Remember we did tell you say we not going to put piece of board here so we brace here so.

[00:18:40]But, chew the wall them good.

[00:18:42]You know, and you need a wall and burn the the board wall and burn the wall good, guys. You see it?

[00:18:48]Yeah.

[00:18:49]See it?

[00:18:50]So, we not need to put no brace there.

[00:18:53]We tell you say we not going to do it, but we just [music] go ahead and follow up it.

[00:18:57]So, you see it. Now, we don't need to put no brace there, but if you um if you board never wall and burn the wall good, guys, if you concrete never good in the block wall, we would have to brace it.

[00:19:07]And if you not brace it, you would have to twitch it with binding wire.

[00:19:10]All right? Yeah.

[00:19:12]So, we not do good work.

[00:19:15]you know you have less nailing [music] up.

[00:19:18]Less nailing up?

[00:19:20]Yeah, less nailing up.

[00:19:22]Cuz you don't have to have brace brace up.

[00:19:25]Cuz you know I can't see a next thing it go pop out, right?

[00:19:29]I can't remember can't see no a boxing in a little pop out, you know? No, I can't remember that guy.

[00:19:34]You know, I don't think that ever happened to me. That not say it won't happen to me, you know, but me know what you mean. So for him die for her.

[00:19:42]You understand? If the as me tell you before if the concrete in a black hole not good, the nail not go hold good, right? It not go hold good. So if you nail not hold good, you have to brace it or you twitch it.

[00:19:56]You understand? But once the nail them hold good, you don't have to do nothing to it.

[00:20:01]Unless it wide.

[00:20:04]Unless it wide, guys. And you don't have to twitch it or brace it. But most of the time you don't have to do nothing to it once the nail them hold good.

[00:20:12]Right? So you know we have to close out now, so next time when we come back we have to pull off the the boxing them and then nail up the the the the little piece of built in this up. Right?

[00:20:23]You understand? So we have to go down now, guys, and cool off a little bit and get a get a beer so wifey can feel more comfortable cuz as me say she know I have to come up here now.
