 Good morning. Welcome to a steel job today and so that's it. It's out. Like Dad says, you never know what you'll find till you start digging. And good morning. Welcome to another steel job today. We are inside on this lovely day and today's job, as I said, is a steel job. Under there somewhere, there's a beam that needs taken out. Because, if I remember right, Dad said there's going to be some doors going in here. And there's a beam here at the right height. But over on this side, there's not. It's just being boxed in. So we're taking out all this, finding the beam and getting a nice big RHD put in. And as you can see, we're actually looking very organised. As you listen from the clip before the little intro, we've cut the steel ready, cut it to size. And what you didn't see is we've also cut the padstone ready as well. So all that stuff is ready. We shouldn't need that today. This is good. Morning. Friday. I'll show over to the maestro once he's settled. Customers have also been very helpful as to get all the stuff covered up for us. This was all them. And they've just put on the towels under the door itself. That's always a massive help, so thank you very much. Over to the main man. I don't know if that's to show you all this, but there's all the gear in. Two more echoes, three more echoes to come in. Here's our little PPE section. These are brilliant. Use these all the time now from M store. Riley safety glasses. Really good stuff. And then there's the gloves. They're great gloves then. They last a hell of a long time. They last that long, sometimes you need to wash them. And then these masks. I think they're by trend. They're absolutely fantastic. They're a bit cumbersome at first, but because of the way they're built, they have filters in here, changeable filters. But when you've got that on, you can wear it all day. And your breathing is not restricted in the slightest. With the fabric masks, you can get a bit of that to tend to probe up a bit. But then you can wear them all day, no problem. So what's happening is, with these beamers, this is the old front of the house. This porch has been added on. Front door used to be there where Alex is. And apparently the customer says there's a beam here. It wouldn't be with a brick arch over it. And when the porch is built, they put a steel in here. Or a concrete beam, I don't know what it is yet to be level. But this was put in at the same height as the... No, it was put up higher. So this has been boxed in level. So what we're doing is taking this wooden beam out, putting the steel in, lifting it up, so that all this boxing can be taken out. Basically, so they can put a door on here. It's too low for a door at the moment. So that's the plan. And there's a bit of patching to do. This plaster needs coming off. He said there's a bit of ropey there, so he wants us to patch up there. So again, we don't know what we're going to find until we start digging that plaster off. So Alex has got everything in. Strong boys, high crows, steels in the van. I can't zoom in, but there you go. The steel we picked up yesterday and cut to length in the garden. Sorry, on the drive. And we also cut the padstones down yesterday so that we're all set. So those are padstones. I think the 230, aren't they? So we have here. So, 230 mil. And so, 150 is your minimum, so 230 will well over with that. I always like to go a bit over. 150 doesn't look too big when you see it. So yeah, we're here. We're set up and we're ready to go. So let's see how today puns out. So, we'll see you in the back to the old time lapse again. So, knocked all this out and you can see the stone arch there. But we've got that one exposed and if we head round here, we've also got the steel exposed which we're going to be building up to. So, looks like there's not much we're picking it up by. Maybe I could course in a bit. But, this was how it was flushed up so we could get it boxed in. Just, yeah, that one's just as loose. There we go. Well, now we've got a proper look at where we're picking up. So yeah, this side is nice and sturdy, whereas this side is not so much how they've got expanding foam in the corners, but we're going to be propping up just above where we need to be building. Actually, no, I think we're going to prop the arch and just rebuild this stronger. Yeah. This was like this was like an entrance. I think it used to be open there like an open porch. Not sure, because it's like a three years old. So, it's like an archaeological dig when you start taking stuff back, isn't it? But yeah, anyway, enough rambling. Let's continue. That'll do for now, just at the front door. 600? Yeah. I'm not sure what size it is. It looks about 180 that by 100. Yeah. Yeah, so that's what's going in which is far better than what's already in on that side. Which is just the box section. So, oh yeah, this piece of timber is coming out. I don't know where it's screwed to. So we're going to whip that out. Look at the width of that beam. It's about 70, 80mm wide. Why? No, we've got 72. All right. 125. I mean, it's not only much up, because the arch is above it. But our steel's going to be all in the arch up. So, nice solid job. So, I've just got to move my van now, because some tree surges have arrived. So, let's get the van shifted, and then we're going to get the props in and start making more mess. Ah, they're just going to clear this up first. So, we're not standing all shy. Got the bags. We've got about 100 fairwoods bags. So, yeah, catching a bit. So, I'm going to turn my van back. This will all be gone. Whoa! Presto. Five nice little light bags of plaster. So, dad also, while we were doing that, has unscrewed this off. That's all it was. It's the old crazy foam again. Obviously, it's not doing much. Well, I'm not sure really, because it depends how much they've taken out of the arch there. And it looks like a concrete arch. But this is all more loose. But that's all it is. It's just this gap. So, we're coming up a course. We're going to lose a course of brick. So, we'll probably keep these top pieces and then cover it all back up. But obviously, we're going to take a section out of this at the end of the arch here, just to undermine it. And the other end, I think, might be the same. Because our steel's coming 230. Bless you. Thank you. So, we're going to get the props in and get all this stuff out. Take it from there. The brick works out above it. I'm going to show you what's going on. We've not propped it yet. Seriously, we don't need to prop it, because the arch goes across both skins. And this handle's already holding this side up. Do it unpropped. We're not going to, because we're going to cut into the arch here. So, it's no longer working as an arch on this side. You can see they've already cut into the arch on that side. Looking at it, it's a brick arch. Just like it's either a concrete arch or it's a brick arch that's been rough cast. So, you cut into it at that end as well. So, we need to get a couple of props under, with the crackers. I mean, it's not going to go anywhere, because it's all built up on this side. So, we're going to work out how high we're going with it. We're going to cut out for our padstones, whip this out and then properly actually, I was going to what we normally do is put the steel in and prop it up. But this is going to be the opposite. We're going to get the padstones in. Sit the steel straight on the padstones and then build up on top of that. Like the opposite of what we normally do. But it's actually easier. It means it's a solid job with the padstones in. So, yeah, we'll get the props in now and take it from there. Just to put into context how well this job's going out. It's just said, should we go for lunch? Because we've got all the brick work out and it's propped. It's half ten. We're a bit ahead of ourselves. So, we're all propped. Got a little brick wedge in there. So it's nicely propped. That's on the top of the arch. That's on the far side of the crack in the arch. So it's all it's all held. Not going anywhere anyway because this is double skin arch. Still, yeah, it's looking like a concrete arch. But anyway, this side, it's coming up a course. I don't think we're going to have to cut into the arch at this end. We've got a full course. Here, and it's just my end. We'll need to do a bit of nibbling because we're coming up to about here. We've still got to put that coin too low. We'll measure that. Might have to move this acro. Um, yeah, so as you can see pasted the hammer, mate. Just take this foam out. Show what this is doing. Stick me right in the chest. There you go. That's, um, that's what it's held by. Like I say, it's supporting itself but it's still not ideal, is it? And it's cracked to hell. So, um, I'll just measure this gap here and check if we're high enough up with that acro. So, catching a bit. There we go. Alex is, um, taking the, um, opening back. There is a bit to come out the arch there. Not unlike my end, where there's a lot to come out. Right across here. Right across the, down there. So it's quite a lump coming out of that. And then I just wanted to show you the, um, the, uh, the wonky lintel has had a wedgie. That's what's holding it up. It's out. I didn't take much, did it? So, um, yeah, we're going to drop this out now and then start knocking it all out of this with the titan. Making a mess and a noise like the other one out there. So, So, there you have it. That is ready for steels now. So, we're going to have an early lunch. And, uh, we're going to get a small mix on and just get all this in. A slight miscalculation on the steel. That plaster is thicker than I thought. By about 25 mm. So, we're going to have 175 seating. We're still going to have a 230 plaster, which is going to, the steels are going to sit on 175 each side. So, it's going to be 5 mm more than we need. It is after lunch. And we're getting that mix on. I've also cleaned out 12 bricks just to, uh, do any of the patching up. So, um, I've got really much else to say. So, once that mix is in, we're going to get that in get that, we'll just steel him. And then, at the top, you're going to take that plaster off at the bottom, and you'll see what's what. Just with the doors. Take that skating board off the dummy one, the white one. I'm not going to plaster it. It's a bit ropey down there. I need a few more bricks. I don't know what's behind this. I might as well do that now then. After some investigation, I can't really see much wrong with that. It's block showing alright. The blocks look okay. It's bonded. So, I don't think any of that needs replacing. It's blown dry as well. Yeah, so, I think that's all good. How come they, uh, needed it looking? The outside was a mess. He said it needed re-bricking. Alright, so they just assumed the inside to be the same. Yeah. Right. Oh, well, whoever did the inside knew what they were doing. Yes. So, there we go. I'll, uh, tidy up the mess I've just made. Alright, I just need to get in there, please, mate. Alright, so, as you mix ready. Are you ready to go yet? Happy days. So, let's get, let's get you set up then. So you go watch us put this ceiling. It's, uh, a little bit of slab in. So, once that padstone's in, that one, it's time for the steel. So, we'll get you set up and film this. See, um, these are at a level, that's level. The pins are at a level. So, this piece here, we've got a 14-inch piece of pure slate in there. So, it's solid. That is nice and solid. And as you can see as well, all the gaps and stuff, Dad's been, uh, repointing and just had a bit more strength. So, yeah, we're, once that padstone's in, we'll get that steel in. And get this smashed out. Insert this steel move in here. We're gonna throw up the steel movement for Dad's ice cream. Where do you want that? At a low angle. Just until we get it in. Cutting in. The thing is... Mine wants to go in. Okay, slight itching first. We'll get over that bit. This here you need to be looking at. I'm nowhere near. With any of it, it's stuck out that way. And it's not plumb. Okay. And it's... Your screws have fell out as well. I think they're not helping it. Right, could we slip in there? I think as soon as we move it that way, it's gonna pop out. That's what it was doing before. 35mm. And on. Just steady it. All it's doing in case it's gone wobbly. Right, I've got 200. It's good for height. 180. So, 10mm. Ready? That's perfect. How about that now? 180. This just needs packing on the front of this. Just needs packing tight like that. That is one more steel job to tick off the books. Now that one was like 50-50. The beginning went very well, but the steel tried to put a bit of a fight. But other than that, I would say this was a pretty good job. Yeah. We just... I didn't enjoy my steel job. Yeah, as far as steel jobs go, it felt more like a lintel job, the methods we were using, but... I wish all the steels were heavy. I know, yeah. That was nice and light. All packed up, blocked up. Obviously, yeah... Nice big seating. And then we're just dumping our motor down here, because there was a bit of customer orders to look under the floorboards, too, for any damages, and there's just a few gaps. So we're just going to fill that with water. Very nice looking mosaic floor under there as well. Like Dad says, you never know what you'll find till you start digging. I wonder if there'll be a bigger swimming pool in here like that Instagram video. But there you go. That is the end of another one. So thank you very much for watching.
