My mansion is getting an addition. Today I am attempting to prepare the work area around the house for the new garage and bedrooms. I come up with a plan, fix a dump truck, operate large equipment, break and remove old concrete, load a dump truck, run a demolition saw, and learn a lot along the way.

    24V is a "boost" for 12V vehicles. Every electrician paused the video and made themselves popcorn as soon as Cole said that, to enjoy the show 😅

    A garage, a second floor, and a new roof. VERY ambitious! Glad to hear you have pros working on the design! ETA: An underground movie theater too! Can't you spread all of that dirt on your fields???

    I live in New York and I do concrete removal in basement floors and walls and we dump it for free to a Concrete Recycling center. They recycle the concrete and asphalt debris transforming them into useable material like crushed concrete and asphalt millings.

    The dreams are becoming reality! Feels like the upstairs addition was a well-kept secret -- but I certainly recall the dream of an attached garage & the underground movie theater. It's SO exciting hearing the plans about to be REAL! All I can say is WOWEE! WOW! WOW! Love this! So far from the HOARDER videos I first stumbled upon! -- From a young farmer in Iowa! Love it!
  • Have you ever thought about getting a rock crusher and turning all that old concrete into gravel? It would allow you to reuse it and probably save you some money.
  • The brake booster is called a hydra boost. It has hoses that hook in to the power steering system. That electric motor under the booster is the backup pump if the power steering pump breaks or the engine is shut off. The wire you unhooked is the positive power wire. Check your brake light switch, it triggers the motor along with relays and stuff. Most common problem is the brake light switch.
  • @markstrout3198
    That is the electric Hydro boost. It is designed to provide hydraulic pressure to the brakes booster in the event the engine dies on the truck.

    Been loving watching these seeing the progression on the house and your personal progression
  • Dump Truck needs some love. You wouldn’t get most things done without ‘’Dump Truck.’’ Great videos.
  • @user-db4vk8kk4h
    I really enjoy your videos! It’s encouraging to see young people that really know how to work. Y’all are very entertaining too. Cole, you sure look nice with the new haircut. Y’all all look nice and clean cut. Keep up all the good work. Roman is such a hard, intelligent worker. It seems he can do most anything. Juston is also a great worker.

    Get the molds and rebar cages, and make Beto blocks for retaining walls and dirt & gravel bins. Tell everyone around the area to send leftovers for washout and disposal. 5:39
