Hobbit Hole Tiny House Build: Concrete Foundation, Block Walls, Concrete Roof, CMU Retaining Wall 

This guy ain't no rookie and made it look way too easy!

Making sure the rebar is lifted up before the pour? This guys a real pro

I’m going to take a WAG here (wild ass guess) and say that this Dude knows his way around laying blocks and working rebar and pouring concrete.

I Love It, A You tube blogger who isn't constantly talking, getting the work done and letting the viewer see for them self's, thank you.

I find it enlightening to watch how different countries handle the same problems or methods in construction. I grew up in a family of carpenters and we were quite rural. But some of the methods used here I saw 35 years ago we don’t use as much anymore. Like a formwork carpenter very few getting around anymore with alloy and plastic formwork systems. And rebar as opposed to reinforcement sheet. Either way this structure will survive thermonuclear and outlast us all

More of a small bunker on a gentle hillside than a hobbit hole, but it does look extremely sturdy.

These fast-paced shorts are good for showing the overall construction process of building a one-man shelter. Then, it can be shown again but cut into bite sized pieces to show the details. It’s a great overview for anyone wanting to learn how to build their own hut.

I feel like the other videos are more than engaging, but these fast paced recap videos are fun to see as well. They definitely both have their place!

Tão pequena, simples, mas extremamente precisa e resistente. Trabalho perfeito!

The craftsmanship was outstanding. Thank you for sharing. God Bless.

Fascinating. I have a feeling this man has done this before, lol. This is how all houses should be built. Thanks for sharing this.

I've wanted to do this kinda thing for ages. Thanks for the detailed walkthrough

GREATEST SOLID HOUSE BUILD EVER !

Awesome vid keep up the great uploads. I can’t wait to see the final product

The way you made your own concrete lintels was very clever

Never ceased to be amazed how ppl spend their time and money

Master builder!! Incredible work..

Ironically, this house is much stronger than most of the houses in the USA.

Brilliant work!

nice land, smart to build all cement in that fuel fire rich location. This will make a nice kiln when the fire hits

Dude has a few tricks up his sleeve. I love all the little steps to remove errors; excellently executed.

This is amazing very well done. I can't imagine how much work the palace of Versailles or Fontainebleau was.

Très beau travail. Bravo

Nice work! Nice to see someone who understands reinforcement of concrete.Ive got the same worm-drive circ saw too...👍

Thx for sharing ❤

The last shot of the concrete steaming as it sets. That's pretty cool! Not many realize it's an exothermic reaction and can create *a lot* of heat while it cures!

RESPECT FOR THE GOOD WORK!!

I’m in process of digging foundation… if only my soil was that easy to cut, it’s full of rock and sometimes solid rock. Taking inspiration for this that I’ll get there someday. ❤

Didn't expect to see those rebar caps! Outstanding! And great work as well!

Awesome!

This video is a showcase of years and years of experience as a constructionworker. This is how solid houses are built. For the size of this project this house is over-built

That is the most beautiful man made cube I've ever seen! Fantastic. (Seriously)... Mr. Lots, ... NEXT!!

You say Hobbit Hole, but I see something like a nuclear bomb shelter😮 To say that the build quality is next level, would be an understatement - great job! Also that Skilsaw is Terminator T1000 quality 👌🏻👍🏻

I wish I had half your skill. Very nice work.

Liked, subscribed. Tight edits, superb craftsmanship, child labor, giant slugs - this has it all.

I was following along until that tie beam up top. Great work.

Very detailed and well engineered. I am building a bunker and your video is very helpful. Cheers.

I was expecting a house such as what LOTR Hobbits would live in

so many cool things to learn with this like how to make a concrete header above a door and window!

You're an amazing craftsman!

Trying to learn concrete building, your vid helps a lot

16:08 I’ve been watching too much war footage. This scared the heck out of me! I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you!

👍🏴‍☠️. 35 years as a Mason and I will say “Doesn’t get any better than that!

It's so cool to see how carefully you do everything. Respect

beautiful

This is a very high-quality video for an extremely well-done job.

This is my dream to have my own property one day and build my own hidey holes. I'm a tough manual laborer but do not have these sorts of skills. Hopefully one day they will be invaluable in my homestead but for now they're great entertainment.

holy cow this is not a hobbit hole.......it a bunker!

Love it

Great video, great hut, totally inspired. 🤘🏽

Thank you for showing how to deal with corrections in concrete.

Cement roof + a lil grass on top = complete and total silence during rain fall

Fantastic work.

Very accurate man, I like your work!

The man has skills!

@Odd Lots Excellent video and build! Really enjoying your video series. Thanks for sharing it with all of us.

Cool!

Все сделано чётко по технологии строительства каменных домов. У нас в Сибири строют также.

aaaaaaah ive been waiting so long to see the roof cure xd and the relieve that the support below kept bearing the load

Very geometric and square for a hobbit hole.

So smart work and looking amazing ❤

Looks pretty cool and I want to build a functional Batcave someday one day .

i like how you built this.i learned a few tricks

I was going to build a storm shelter/storage shed and I think I'm going to use your technique. This is pretty neat awesome. I will likely make it half this size but this seems very close the FEMA guidelines.

Great Craftsman and a great youtube video editor! Very well made video !

Love the roof. I watched it done in Puerto Rico and they would run water of the concrete for a week to make it cure slower. They said it would help make it water proof.

Beast mode. Well we’ll done

The way you show how you make the roof. Great. Subscribed and Commented. Thanks. 😀

When your dad is a concrete guy and you ask for a fort... Lol

Nifty.

Nice work!

Man, your skill set is so impressive! Subbed!

Muy buen trabajo....

Excellent craftsmanship! Got a new subscriber!

nice block work

Who knew Tobias Funke would be so handy

09:24 You should make some sawhorses! Keeps your fingers safer, and they're so much nicer on the back and joints. :)

Some guys just have it figured out.

Looks more like a small concrete house than a hobbit hole to me

It's solid like a german bunker from ww2.

It's built like an ammo magazine, that used to be located near big gun emplacement during WW2.

❤❤❤ LIKED, WATCHED, COMMENTED ❤️❤️❤️

mad skills

caps on the end of the vertical rebar... OSHA approved!

at the outset before footers are poured place some rigid pipes and a manifold that will go out a single chimney in the back then near the front entrance build a fire box the smoke and eat will channel under the build to the chimney so one fire a day will heat the entire structure...

I'm impressed. One of the few videos, where the job is done right! 👍 The Devil is often in the detail. And I learned few tricks :-). Nice to see, that I'm not the only one trying to stick to good building practices (I'm only DYI at home and tiny ranch). I just wonder, if that thin film underneath the foundation works as a radon protection...?

This is exactly what I want and them put stone outside and wood like stone log cabin .

This video makes the job look a lot less like a PITA than it probably was

outstanding

this is an outrageously strong concrete box! i think you could park a truck on top no worries :D

I am not sure that Hobbits were advanced enough to use concrete.

Also could fill those Block walls with rocks and sand for more insulation.

That building could withstand a scud missile 😂😂 the amount of rebar and poured cavitys

Thank you for inviting all to see your great work . Question is it not necessary to put up columns at least on the corners? It’s very rare I see any columns with walls made with cinder blocks

Not this man's first rodeo.

Solid like a bomb shelter🙂

well done

Congratulation 🎉

Man, are you trying to survive a nuclear blast... 😆😆😆 I'm absolutely impressed on this project. 👏

A tough house honestly
