Some challenges today, driving the earth rod for the new solar install being the biggest which was easily done with a jack hammer! We get more of the stone walls completed and more preparation for the upcoming solar installation.

House renovation is thirsty work, especially an old Finca (Spanish farmhouse), so if you would like to buy us a coffee or even a beer, you can do so here: www.buymeacoff.... It would be very much appreciated.

I'm an old tradesman like you, and I just realised that young people may be learning from you. I find all your talking a little boring, because I already understand most of these things; yet there would be hundreds that are learning something new. So, crack on.

Thanks. The idea for the channel was to teach a little - whilst continually learning ourselves. So many skills are disappearing these days - if we can share some, teach a little and maybe inspire a few people, it can only be a good thing.

Always good to have an alternate plan for when the weather changes. Chicken shed had improved so much since you first showed it to us.

Man that long cement bit had to cost a pretty penny. Yes a gound rod is very much need. Good work all in all😊

Thank you. I can't even remember what it cost lol. I have a couple - they were first used around 30 years ago to drill through 3 foot thick stone walls in an old house I had in France!

It's going to run a couple of refrigerators in and power the water pump and UV steriliser and probaly some other steady loads to ease the main system burden in the winter, so we can run more heaters :) It's coming up soon!
