@kaskadesmoney 2 месяца назад

Wanted to thank you for your inspiration. I made one quite similar to the one you've built, have you had issues with the actual mailbox itself? In terms of rivets near the opening and magnet, as well as moisture getting into the seams?

@inspiringbuilds 2 месяца назад

You’re very welcome, inspiring others is the reason why I started the channel. I’ve installed multiple of those mailboxes and only had an issue with the rivets that you speak of being a bit loose on one where I installed new cotter pins to make it tighter with the lid opening/closing. Moisture has never been an issue.

How much it would cost in total as a private job for the neighbor?

@inspiringbuilds 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching. Most of the cost for this project would be in labor and it would depend on your hourly labor rate as well as location. Some locations for example it’s almost impossible to dig requiring extra cost when others isn’t as bad.

You're really not supposed to use that kind of hammer with that kind of chisel, but I assume you already know that and are using something you're not worried about.

@damirregoc8111 11 месяцев назад

Nice video. Just a little advice from a viewer, if you take those: maybe make a video just as a report of what you're doing, instead of this tutorial style, "do it like this, then do this". Because this is too specific of a project for anybody to really use it as a tutorial to follow step-by-step. So it sounds a bit weird. Other then that, I like it.

@FixItFrench 11 месяцев назад

Respectfully, some people watch videos because they find it entertaining. Also RU-vid pays RU-vidrs more money for videos that are longer than 10 minutes. I enjoy watching videos like this🤙🏼🤙🏼

@damirregoc8111 11 месяцев назад

@@FixItFrench No, I think I was pretty clear. I just proposed for him not to speak as if it's a tutorial. "Do this, then do that". Because it's a very specific build, than nobody is going to recreate, step by step. So it would just make more sense to make a video as a report of one's actions. "So then I did this, and I did this". This way, as it is now, it sounds awkward, because, again, it's talking to the audience as if it's a tutorial, how to do this very specific thing.
