@user-ji1nh1j I'm very sorry about your cancer. I have been going through my cancer issues for 7 years now and I have been watching Chris' videos every day and I feel that it has helped me. If he doesn't post some days i just watch old ones. Even if they don't help me they sure as hell don't hurt me lol. I love watching his videos and have seen all of them at least once but most of them at least twice. I pray you get to hold on for a long time. God bless you and keep smiling and watch as many of his videos everyday. I try to watch 4 - 6 everyday. Thanks Chris for sharing and God bless you. 👍👍🫶

I think you need fuzzy dice for the 330 as it would make it FAR more practical for the work you are doing. I have put hot pink fuzzy dice in mine and I swear I am now 37 times more productive despite the extremely high cost and added weight factor. I’m so glad I saw some KZitem experts post about getting fuzzy dice in the comment section! It definitely saved my business. You MUST do it too!

Looking really good there. Did not realize that each lot had it's own driveway off the main road when this was first laid out. Thought there would be a street or road in with individual drives off of it. Of course that is what is required in my area to limit the access to main road but then becomes a headache with common private road or build to county specs to give the county the road and right of way easements. This seems better from paperwork and "getting along factor" for neighbors but just not allowed here. Each individual responsible for their own driveway and not dealing with common ground this way. But several ditch crossings to keep up.

I can't remember if it was on this channel or Geoff's but I believe each lot had to have access to the main road because of the county(IIRC), but yeah I remember one of the initial drawings it had a central road/drive.

Fun to watch as always! I'm surprised that your driveways can slope straight down to the pavement. Out here in the Northwest we need a negative slope at the pavement (mini swale over the pipe), so that the water coming off the driveway doesn't go straight to the road.
