Roman is such a calming and soft spoken entity in these videos. I appreciate him.
-
For some reason, Iowa has SO many extremely talented and truely NICE young folks (i am older than your dad, Cole). Something tells me it goes back generations. Anyway, all my deepest respect and love to ya'll !!!!!!! There is great hope for the future!! Thanks!!!!!

You should leave the foundation wall as an exposed wall and figure out a way to seal the wall. I think that would be really cool, especially walking into an underground movie theater.

COLE!! The problem with the drain versus sump pump is if the end of the drain is flooded the drain will backup water and will flood the house out! the higher the flood the deeper the water will be in the basement!
-
It is just amazing. You two guys, by yourself, moving all this dirt, figuring out all the implications of the water table and the drain, etc, etc. Holy cow!! 🐄🐄🐄
-
Put your drain tile 100% in a fabric sock. It will keep fine dirt out and protect against roots.
-
It would be cool to make that foundation a feature wall in the basement theater, just having it exposed for all of its glory!
-
Abandon the gas line. It's probably too small for your updated heating system. The time wasted saving it (twice) would have paid for the new line.
-
You should be replacing the gas line .
-
I love this build, all the twists and turns, frequency of uploads. Does anyone ever take on a project themselves and then only finish it 95% because the enjoyed the process so much that they didn't want it to end?
-
Cole great job on not talking so loud, I know part of the louder talk is because you are full of enthusiasm but I did notice you trying to talk more and yell less thank you, we love watching your videos. Keep up the good work!

I showed cattle at the county fair and got several showmanship awards and lots of ribbons.
-
Cole, loving this project. Just speaking as a heavy civil GC, please put a ladder in your excavation that extends 3 feet higher than the top of the excavation. If you do have a cave in with no ladder, you will have no way out quickly
-
Reinforcements are good! Roman is an awesome help! Looking good.
-
This was fun to watch, well done.
-
Congratulations on being chosen to show Izzie steer#9.
-
I love your voice! It’s enthusiastic and FUN! Don’t let the whiners about your voice worry you! Keep up the ENTHUSIASM!
-
Very impressive how this job runs into difficulties and Cole can call an expert. I bet lots of folks had wished they had done the same lol
-
Tell Justin we all say hi! 👋🏼

Replace the gas line. with all the handling it has received, you cannot guarantee it does not have a hole in it or it has weakened and will break later. Also put a pipe down and run the gas line INSIDE it for more protection.
