Lookin great!, when you dropped the brush i felt the frustration!, when the water started spraying couldn't help but to laugh, what else can you do in those situations!, I've been there countless times myself 😂
Good hit getting that water tank. We have three 55gal barrels plumbed into the main gutter down pipe and we use that to water the allotment and wash the car and so on. Here in the UK ( I live in SE London) we are on water meters. brings the bill down quite a bit....
One of the tricks to save water is to put a house brick in the toilet cistern so it use's one brick volume of water per flush and also to pack it in the washing machine, more clothes per cycle. Makes sense when you think about it. love the bunker....
That was amazing video clip you put together there it was great to watch it there an are you going to be putting in are cement wall in on the sides air once you have finished their and keep up the good work there 👍👍
@@terminator_t404 No mate this in Australia is called exposed. This is a form of decorative concrete that is generally utilised for paths and driveways. If it was indoors it would be fantastic polished. The ground and polished stuff is to slippery when wet without sealers and non slip additives. When you pour this mud you wait until the concrete would be ready for a second hit with the trowel. Firm enough to walk on and add the sugar water to the top layer. Sugar stops the top slurry from seting allowing you to just wash of a fine layer, leaving the top stones encapsulated in the concrete.
You're back! My god I've missed this channel, I had been watching the original channel from the very start. I sent an email requesting to join the other one but didn't hear back from you. I was watching subterranean Ralph and recognised your channel profile picture 😂😂
Hey mate you can find all my videos over on Rumble just look up Dale Digs Downunder. I have all of my old content up there and all of the stuff never seen here.
@@BackyardBunkerBuilder Wondering why you switched over to this Rumble? first i've heard of it. Gone and found your channel, looking forward to catching up with the rest of the progress!
You need to form up the walls of and pour concrete walls in order to waterproof the bunker. Otherwise you’re going to keep fighting the water seeping into your bunker, which will lead to mold building up and causing dangerous health problems to you and your family. Sand will not waterproof the bunker, it will eventually wash itself out and cause the walls to cave in on you. So please rethink your project. Safety first. All of the water you’re pumping out into the yard, is seeping right back into your bunker. Water always takes the path of least resistance. Which means, the clay layer that you’re digging out is allowing the water to flow and seep right back into your bunker. You’re going to keep fighting a no win situation with the water. You need at least 8” (20 cm) of wall thickness of concrete with rebar reinforcement to safely stabilize the walls.
@@BackyardBunkerBuilder I think I've actually heard this one before, a long long ago. Maybe even by AvE. I like the family friendly way of covering up the joke though, THAT's what got me :D
@@BackyardBunkerBuilder Love the Videos. It's just that ceiling looks too have no support. At least the soil is more solid But its not solid rock is it? 3-4ft 1-1.5m minimum from the surface would probably be ideal. I think even Colin Furze talks about that in a couple videos. If you are staying at your current depth I would recommend Cribbing every couple feet. Even rock tunnels have arched ceilings not flat. ❤
I am so amazed at how much work you do. It looks like the soil is mostly clay now, or at least that’s what it looks like. I know in he early videos you shored up the side with some wood but I don’t see that now. Are you planning on putting up some kind of panels or supports to protect yourself from a cave in? Or maybe you had some testing done and the ground is really stable? I’m inspired to dig in my back yard but my yard has a lot of rocks. Also there was some people here in Hawaii who died recently because they were digging for a wall in their yard and it caved in. So I’m a bit nervous for myself and for you. Keep up the great work, I can’t wait to see what it looks like when it’s completed.
All of the walls will be supported as I make my way through. It is all clay at the bottom, really sticky when wet. That is really sad about the cave in. Don't worry about my safety If something happens it is fine, i would much prefer dieing doing something I love than not living life and dieing anyway.
Watching you from Northern California town called gualala I would love to hear you say that in your accent awesome project you got going are you a Colin furze watcher?
this looks suspiciously illegal ... cant imagine you got a miners right or council permission ... and we dont own "under the ground" rights in Australia.
Nothing in Australia is legal and you don't own anything. Thanks to people like you that think the government has to be involved in everything we do. More regulation and red tape but they haven't done anything to stop people dying.
I’m amazed at how much work you get done with just a shovel. You’re awesome. I’m enjoying your videos keep up the good work. What’s with all the bees in this video? Do you have your own hive or something? They don’t seem to be bothering you but I’d be hiding in the house with that many bees flying around.
Thanks mate it is a lot of hard work. I have a couple of hives next to the path. Bees are busy working nothing to worry about. Most people's reactions are like yours though so you are not alone.
@@BackyardBunkerBuilder Cool. I know bees are super important so good on you to help them. Do you ever get stung? Do you think they know you and that you help them?
I'm gonna enjoy this series. I hope you don't mind me suggesting to grab a tripod for filming, the shaking gets really bad sometimes and the quality improves emensely once you put the camera down :) greetings from germany
