I'm going to go ahead and say congrats on the 1000 subs bro! I know you are only 2 away and you should be there. By the morning! Now it's time to start producing that content! You have worked hard and stayed with it and I just wanted to be the 1st to say congrats man! Hope you don't get upset that it was a tad early
@@thomasconstructiontexas we have to set 4 type 2 catch basins. 16 ft deep. It’s definitely fun. Look up lever monkey in you tube. He’s out of California.
I saw the plans ,ostly called for a .30%. Did you set the laser at .26% (video mark 1:29) because the laser was further back than if starting at the catch basin?
Most of the time we do. The reason for that when you take the pipe and it's been laying in the sun and you put it in the cool ditch, the humidity will make the laser dance around. At that point, you need to put a fan blowing through the pipe to keep it from doing it. So it's just as easy to put it on top and not have to deal with that.
By being able to set the pipe up or down in the inlet box, it gives you the freedom to match the top grade. Risers come in 6 inches 12 inches. So by where you place the pipe in the box, you're able to leave yourself with even 6 inches, 12 inches or 36 inches whatever it works out too. If you raise the pipe in the box, you need to go put cement in the bottom so you don't have standing water.
