Cool shelter you're messing around with! Some constructive advice to consider for building: -That plywood (looks to be 3/8inch advantech maybe) will hold pretty well since its treated, but with flat wood pooling water is always a carpenters worst enemy. I would recommend a slanted roof to drain, either the plywood itself or a tarp above it. -Obviously a level foundation with those cinderblocks as walls will give the most stable footing, but you look check out how to level ground with string and a level. Its not "youtube sexy", but it's critical to good building and something other building channels include in the process, so there is precedent. -Those spikes would work well if you were to lash them to a perpendicular brace and alternate the direction of the spikes. Check out Frisian horses. -Keep on man!
Make it deeper underground,and double the width,and use cinder blocks on the inside for walls,and keep the drain idea,but improve it and always keep improving your shelter. Im enjoying the underground shelter builds,im building an underground tornado shelter thats about 6 feet deep atm,still got some digging to do...
to strengthen the base, the cinder blocks already have hole in them going down so you use the old spikes and put them in these holes witch will sort of join the blocks togeether, this is really simple and effective and most definitely cheap, another idea is to find generator, although expensive if you hook it up to a switch that is the connected to the barbed wire you can make a toggleable electric fence on top of the barbed wire. also make a rain water tank that is piped into the shelter for water and a shelf for food. thats all from me and good luck!
Use concrete for the cinder that way the structure will be much stronger and sturdier, try to also connect the wooden plank with the cinder using concrete as well maybe, and try to expand the underground section you could also make part of the underground a bit deeper so that it can hold water, and you should really connect your water tube with a water purifier try to get one that’s pre made from a store or something but it would also be better if you also made your own using charcoal and sand on top of the store bought one. I think that would really help the base and you should try to make the base more liveable like adding a tarp and nailing it to the floor and also adding tarp to the walls.
Any excavation, no matter the type of soil its in, the most important part for safety and strength is reinforcing the walls. With the area you are building apparently prone to lots of water, this is something you need to do. Without going into huge detail here, have a look at battle trench construction used by the military, they reinforce the walls with wriggly tin sheets, braced with 6ft metal pickets and then have steel 12 gauge wires acting as tension ropes,running away from the tench and anchoring off smaller pickets. The roof of the trench is then supported by more 6ft pickets running across as beams......it is an affordable, proven,safe and very strong way of building trenches and shelters.
If you sand down the door and the door frame it will make a little more space and would make ot a bit easer to open with out making it leak when it rains. Just do not sand to much. If you also add some tiki tortchs it will help repell maquidos. There is a method useing a hammer to make the barbed weir guitar string tight.
hey man I wanna add some recommendations. you see all those cinder blocks there are 2 things wrong with those first if a hoard of zombies discovers you entering the bunker there going to start piling on the cinder blocks, I know. that's what the wire is for however if those zombies break through and or pile on top of one another they're going to just push over all those cinder blocks and either trapping you inside to die say that your escape route is covered with the undead to or crashing in onto you squishing you to death either from suffocation and or blunt force Trama to your entire body. which means you have to add something to prevent it from falling now there are 2 options A. you add glue and or cement to it to stick it on B. you know those spikes you removed you could either get new better sticks or use those but what I'm proposing is that you saw these stick or snap them into a length where you could fit it in the walls preventing them from falling onto you also, inside you could add more room along with support beams on the inside just in case you have those left for dead 2 zombies like the blotter. huge and would sink into the ground if there was a tunnel underneath which means you have to made roof beams connected to the wall beams made out of wood to insure your survival from scavengers. you may want to cover up you bunker with Leafs to make sure you keep sneaky. Also, if possible, you should stock your bunker with a few bear traps and plant them around your bunker to ensure security also if you read this few I appreciate. it and I hope you keep up all this hard work in your future videos.
What you should really add to the zombie shelter is a power source. This will come in handy for pretty much anything you desire. Solar panels might do. With a power source, you can set up lights, add security cameras, watch tv, whatever you want or need
add walls and a roof and a tarp on the ground so you can get a new gaming chair for the night and its more comfortable and bring back the concrete pipe for an escape🙂
