Building a house in Rural Thailand - July 7th update

Well after having more than enough problems with the first crew they have finally been replaced by a smaller crew and so far things are going good. This video is the 2nd day they worked, The first day was mostly cleaning up the garbage left behind by the old crew.
There as been a few screw ups but all easily fixed, What pissed me off is the lies to try and cover up the screw ups.
In the last week things have have been good, I hope this continues to the end, Wishful thinking I know.....

So are you going layout the plumbing on the kitchen floor and jackhammer them out or but some of the water lines in the walls.?

 Looks like you have a fine crew this time,Good Luck with your new home.

Peace,Striker

@StrikerTripleThree Still not sure about the kitchen plumbing. The normal way in Thailand is to hide the pipe in the wall, But out plans had them in the floor, Which still can be done easily, I well leave it up to the engineer, That's his job, I just did not like it when the foreman lied to me and said it was as per the plans.

Update video coming soon.
