@Azz . Hi. Any reasons why the op can’t upload piccies. As far as I can make out, he’s satisfied TL1 status, which would permit it.

Thanks.

I was assuming it’s a state that must have actual rain to make it an issue big enough for you to worry. Does it rain a lot in Missouri? I remember when we were driving through St Louis past the arch in miserable rain.

@grovewalker

wait the box aint here yet. its ordered from the yard. brother said 4 inch pipe toward the low edge of the yard

There seems to be a lot of yards

[Besoeker]

Good morning Mr Grovewalker !! Yes, around the States. And a lot of other places - South Africa, Taiwan, China, Libya, Malaysia, Finland - even France ! Mostly on business my field was electrical engineering in the industrial segment. Now you know everything about me from my trouser length to my steel toe caps…

@Lincolnshire

There seems to be a lot of yards

Or metres ?

[Dextrous63]

How many metres in a furlong?

[Besoeker]

Just over 200 meters.

So what afoot then? a puddle

grovewalker, this is the problem when you try to buy your way out of a situation, a self built “Manhole” with custom flanges for various pipe sizes would have been the sensible solution, you need to think “beyond the box”

annie missouri? i never been to st louis. midwest kinda rains enough that hole gets wet tho. plywood still covering it

[Dextrous63]

Have you considered moving somewhere drier?

@Besoeker

Good morning Mr Grovewalker !! Yes, around the States

besoeker morning. thats a lot of places. electrical engineering sounds fancy. i barely keep the garbage truck from driving in my hole

Plywood will fall apart eventually, but better than MDF.

This could be the answer:

Well then it must be north or south dakota or Nebraska, I hope you aren’t in Kansas…

@spitfire

“beyond the box”

spitfire beyond the box?? i thought the box was the whole point. brother already ordered one from the yard. manhole with flanges sounds like something else and i get confused easy

Hi Mr G. Good luck with your Holy hole! Yes, a lot of places - just my job. Probably the the most interesting was The Orient Express.

@AnnieS
