I was raised by, and married to electricians. What I know or understand about wiring leaves me lucky to know how to turn on a light! LOL
Thank you for a life lesson that I should have understood decades ago.
On the really plus side, I doubt I will ever set a lamp post, but I was trying to figure out how to make a concrete post for my rural mail box ... solar tube, is it?
BRILLIANT!
Hi Thanks for the comment. I call the tube a sonotube, that's a brand name that everyone uses. It's actually just a concrete tube.
@@DIYOnTheHouse My husband was very good at all of this stuff, but for the most part, he liked working alone. I think he thought he would always be around to do all this stuff for me.
I really appreciate all the home making things you and your husband share with us. I have been very well provided for all of my life, and I am very grateful for those who share so willingly on CZcams - -
Knowing the proper name and what the product actually is will certainly help me and the guy who is going to have to deal with me when I show up asking for a "thingy" at the hardware store! LOL
Outstanding video. Very helpful. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great post. thx.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for the nice video you have posted.
I have a question about the concrete layout, do I need to add mesh wiring to the concerts hole or just pour the concert in the hole on the dirt's?
We just poured it into the hole - no mesh added.
Could Wago connectors be used instead of twist ones?
I love the Wago's
Great video. I need to do a similar project. But I thought the concrete post needed to be far into the ground. How is it not going to fall over? The concrete's above the frost (not in the ground).
It's in the ground. I also live in an area we don't have a frost level.
Got it! I later realized you weren't in a frost prone area, so it wouldn't matter. Such a foreign concept for me. 😂 great great great video! I will be referencing your video when I do this project in the next few weeks.
Could you share how many bags of cement and which brand you used? I am planning on doing this, but never had pured cement before, so that is the part that I need advice on. Thanks in advance!
You can use regular concrete post mix, I believe I used 3 - 60 pound bags.
You must not get frozen ground or high winds.
We freeze and get snow and live in an extremely windy area!! The light stands up great for several years now!!
Did I miss the part where you ran the electricity from the source to your lamp post? (I only ask because of natural female curiosity! LOL)
It was already there from a previous light.
The post is made up of three pieces What is the length of the large piece I would like to know for transportation purpose
base is 21", middle 24", top 32"
11:22. I was wondering how you were going to get that little copper wire down through that first section.
It was no problem. Thanks for watching!
Could I ask if it’s die cast aluminium or just cast aluminium?
Die cast I believe. Not totally sure.
The trim piece is a finial?
I think ...
Not sure what you are referring to?
@@DIYOnTheHouse The tops on the lights
Good luck replacing
Thanks ?
