this thing's a no-brainer one of the questions i do want to answer is why do you keep some stuff you know outside of the construction company landscaping company and there's a reason why i do it because a lot of the sometimes the work that i do doesn't relate to the hardscaping the landscaping doesn't relate to our main line of work and that's what you're going to see today in fact to to take to to continue on with this tour we've got to go 100 miles up north but before that we've got work to do and it has nothing to do with landscaping hardscaping or anything you guys typically see on my channel so you're going to actually see some of the work we do that you don't you'd normally get to see so let's do that now frankie and i have a pretty big project going up at my cabin the if this this is the front of my cabin it used to have a roof that was just as long sloping rough and the snow would just sit on top of it and it was just gonna destroy the cabin if we had a really snowy winter frankie and i were up there shoveling it off so instead what we've done is we've created a peak on top of that roof but to do it we had to build a roof over the roof and it was it's a lot more work than it sounds like so basically we're adding an entire second story and altering the roof line on the cabin and when i do that i don't like to use gt or our hardscaping equipment because that's needed to make us a living so i have my whole line of equipment that i use that i reserve for myself the orange trailer that's my trailer i will let gt let the company use it but if i need it first and foremost then i get to use it i have a couple two three skid loaders two skid loaders a bobcat t180 which is buried way out in the woods right now because uh frankie and i were working on a project out in the woods and i didn't bother to bring it back in i've got this truck this trailer i've got my my ram pickup truck with my snow buyer snow dog plow and my snow power plow that's my own personal truck as well so i have just enough equipment that i can keep operating without taking anything away from the business kind of long story that wasn't short and this is us playing with the new gopro 360 camera which
