Here in south Georgia USA, a lot of rural homes have these. I do agree with the ppl who suggested rebar. Most people here just stack the cocrete bags without re-bagging.
I really, really, love this video and all of the effort. The skills and creativity are top level. The strength of containers and repurposing. But at the same time, the work that is put in to working "around" the steel box. Is it worth it financially? Would it have been just as cheap and easy to just ending building this structure from wood? Does anyone have a compare and contrast build cost of this? Thanks for the content
Great idea. Now I know what I can do to move water all over the land from top elevation 😊 and grow flowers and moss on the concrete to bring back the natural look.
@9:50 as the guy who does the OSHA required stuff in our wood shop, I can say using an unguarded angle grinder is seriously bad, using it to "saw through steel sheets while on a ladder is insanity! There are videos showing how these wheels can "explode" into lots of shrapnel that goes everywhere, one video by a Canadian version of OSHA (WorkSafeBC) uses actors and re-enactments to show how various accidents happened according to their investigations, at least a few of them involve safety around construction sites- circular saws, angle grinders, table saws etc., I believe one of their videos is the one where this guy who was injured and talked about his injury- was using an unguarded angle grinder on the ceiling while on a ladder, I think this was the one I saw where the wheel jammed and kicked the tool back, the disk went through the face shield he was wearing and he fell off the ladder. That video or another in the series showed a worker on a construction site using one to cut something and in a split second the disk literally exploded into shrapnel, with at least one chunk embedding itself into his face, it was very graphic! Despite the internal re-enforcement cloth stuff used, and it surprised me- these wheels CAN explode, you really MUST ALWAYS have the guard on in place 100% of the time, no exceptions, that is the only thing that gives you any chance at all if that wheel comes apart or the tool kicks back! If you cant do the task with the guard on then use a JIG SAW with a metal cutting blade on metal!
Why don’t you answer questions??? What about old construction?? I need to cut off all the tabs and the final bracket u put on connects to the tabs so can I cut the bracket?
With Ryan's ru-vid.comUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE plan I was like one taken by the hand and led step by step from start to finish. Thank you very much Ryan!
This is a terrible method for a RETAINING wall. The ground will exert lateral force and you have just piled up blocks that a child could push over. Dangerous and useless. These types of youtube videos will result in people that don't have experience with this do unsafe and costly useless projects.
Ba without mortar between... why not just make a nice dry stone wall, the bags of cement simply come down to really expensive stone, and the cement is really not environmentally good and will age really badly and quickly, compared to good old Pierre, really Bof sorry
First video and already a Bon the Builder fan! Thanks for this video and for YOU! SO, very, incredibly succinct while easy for a layAnne like me to understand and make something beautiful! Post Script: Kygo rocks my socks! Musical choice pairing perfection!
I just put together my second pare, tho the information in the video is good especially when my Mulset did not come with instruction. But i found a couple of changes that made it go easier and truer. 1) using the foam to lift one side is fine but it can not overhang the window, it works better when the Mul does not rest on the area you want to click together. 2) my second windows were not created equal and offsetting by 1/2 the length difference is not correct. you need to look down the window and verify the when the windows are closed and locked the top of the bottom window are at the same level. if you install them otherwise you eye will always see that on is higher than the other. just a food for thought for those that review this video in the future
The infor was good, my mull kit came with a copy all blurry and half sheet. However, they dont go together well. they did not click well nor stay together. the only way i got them to work was a pair tie down strap. Then attaching the top and bottom bars was easy.
Looks like it’s working perfectly. This is the only one I’ve seen where someone didn’t just place the whole bags as is. Your way may be a little more work but must use less concrete. Another thought I had was you may have better adhesion between the bags using a single layer paper bag. Most store bought concrete are multiple layers.
Can you install the aluminum end brackets without the flange on them "top & bottom"? as in old construction brick siding, that you slide the window in.

Beautiful work. You have my admiration. We also started converting a container into a tiny house and we know how much work it takes. You are awesome. Very nice.
*So amazingly quiet and **Fastly.Cool** in my room! 42db is at a whisper level. I bought 2 and installed myself.Very sturdy bracket and easy to adjust to fit windows of different size. Absolutely fabulous units!!*
