Building a Concrete Pergola Part 4 Making reusable Forms for the Joist! Fast to Strip and Reset.

I REALLY, Enjoy watching here and seeing how the Build is going. James you have Built an Amazing Place there ! 🙂

We"re at Sol y Mar last Wednesday. Seeing that jellyfish reminds me that my kids were taking those from beach and put them in the hot sand. They enjoyed it😊

A trusted friend near by is worth their wight in gold.

Lat of open Hills en valies you are walks Texas Philippino s (Real nice to watch this) 🙋🤹🇵🇭🎺🥧🧋🌶️🐚🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶😉🧮📂🇵🇭🇺🇲⚒️🔧🔨📐⚙️⛏️🗜️®️

Enjoy the video thanks for keeping it simple as I’m one of those people who don’t know what anything means. Have a great day

I really enjoyed seeing your humor come out with your boys; we don't often see that side of you.

Great progress, James. Been watching your and Melinda’s channel for a LONG time— always appreciated your sharing knowledge and experience— I’ve taken a lot of notes over the years… you don’t need to listen to negative ‘think’ they know hows… You’re my go to DO-how guy 👍🏻

That's quite the concrete jungle you made there. Are there any earthquakes in your area ?

Cold air/weather does us no justice if we have ailments like nerve damage. I have it in my left foot and in korea it whoops me but times a ticking to join you on that side my eyes is on the prize!!!!!

The nice thing about having a long-term crew; they begin to understand American humor!
It took almost 3 months, with my work crew, before we were comfortable enough to begin joking around. Then work became more fun for all of us.
Pergola is coming along nicely, James

Best part of not being in North Texas in the winter is no Cedar Fever. If you know, you know, unfortunately. I got pneumonia 14 years straight until the right dr. taught me it all started every year from my allergies to Juniper Ashe. I'd have such a severe reaction, it led to respiratory infection to bronchitis and pneumonia.

Only downside of your pergola is it's going to be a sky tram for all the chihuahua sized rats here. Meaning they're going to be doing their business all over it. And if you're going to decorate it with some type of vines and/or lights, it's only going to make it harder to clean and maintain. Any thoughts on how to keep them off it? Its a never-ending battle keeping them from jumping from our trees onto the roof and eating through the soffets, gaining access to our attic. We throw out food where the dogs can't get it, but the neighborhood cats can, to encourage them to wander our property at night. Every once in a while, we get both a cat and rat in our attic, and it's crazy time with an actual cat and mouse game happening above our heads. Eventually, we hear the scream of the 🐀 and thank you 😺.

Were getting excited just by watching your updates😍🤩

What are those black things in the ocean?

Thank you for this video. It was cool and you're a cool guy. I can relate to the small things you say because I'm from the south that most don't get and the hard core old school work ethic that seems harsh but is really nice and direct. I leave your videos playing while I sleep cuz you also have a calm voice/ora

nice work James, and teaching the workers new ideas help them..

Looking good man. The guys are getting it done. You've got this living life thing all sorted. Cant wait to get back and see it all in the flesh and see you guys. Oh and stay in the most comfortable bed in the Philippines. ♥

I’m down with you calling things whatever the F you want. Some people just have too much time on their hands. Why can’t someone just enjoy the process. 😮
Enjoyed this one

Man buy a beltsander and make everyone's life easier 😂

🎉 James I have learned a lot from you and your videos 😉, I also use C preling for cement from. Thanks for the great videos. We are still building here in San Antonio Bagac Bataan Philippines as well.

James and Karen Adventures stopped by, but they didn't know how to hail the house.

Too funny! The trolls admire you, that's why they watch every minute of every video. They aren't building what you are building. They don't live the wat you live, and the worst thing is they are young. I could say more James, but you already know. Great build, brother. I hope to be there very soon. My specialty is A/V Tech. Need a 100,000 w
5-way cross-over sound system. 🤣 I know you can do that, too. ✌️🖖💯

You got those guys working at God like speeds, until they slowed down. Keep it up with the doo-hickeys & widgets, eh, & least of all don't forget about the whats a macallits. Just sayin

Is the radius gonna be on the top or the bottom or both?

Very good vedieo James Ray I enjoyed it Po . That walk way will be fantastic when your done brother I can't wait to see it all complete with the pool .Man I sure could use some of that low stress & salt air I'd probably feel much better myself Po . Maybe before to much longer .Capps is so blessed to have a good friend like yourself to hang with & confide in . I'd have to start a relationship with a friend from. Scratch as I'd be alone when I come . I no longer associate with Lyka so there you go 😢. I do miss her but it is what it is I have a feeling I'd get over it pretty quick tho😮. Man don't even get me started on property ownership here in the states by foreigners especially Chinese govt disguised company's in our farm lands & near military installations. We could learn a thing or two from the Philippines 🇵🇭. Take care my friend see ya on the back end of the next vedieo Kuya 😊.

Hey save some of those banana chips for me mister , lol. May and I will come visit you guys in a couple weeks we are heading to sipolay this weekend then back to the fishpond regroup and then head to ilo ilo

Pro tip color code your 230v cords with red electric tape to distinguish the difference of your 120v

How has your "carnivore" diet been going? I personally believe the way meat & vegetables are raised there affects your health positively. I never really watched my diet over there and ate whatever I wanted for the most part and I still lost weight.

I saw those same black jellyfish at my place near Bacolod. I thought they were leaves at first, then I looked harder and saw that they were swimming! I don’t know if they have stingers or not.

Looking Great 👍

Use styrofoam for the ends , chop then out when your done . That's how we do it in the states.

You do have a good life. A great male friend and a loyal wife!

Nice Smooth Jazz Music!!!

The workers have been taught so much by you that they could go and work for any builder after you are finished

Your place is coming along nicely James

The foreman is pretty good as well ❤

I am still of the opinion those workers are very good 😊
