I have lived with these wild rocks in their own environment, and their just very misunderstood, education is the answer,. I'm doing a documentary on wild rocks should be rolling out soon it's called "Living with the Rolling Stonez".!
CYBORG, This "IRONMAN" has got to be part machine, or....at the very least, genetically mutated with a Bulldog ANT. Spectacular speed, I had to place a cold pack on my neck cause I was becoming dizzy trying to focus on this assembly and its progression. The enclosure seems perfectly designed to accommodate just about ANY POLITICIAN.
Great opportunities for everyone! I mastered Indian Cuisine, learned how to bake bread and how to read Tarot. Still working on foreign languages. You can either embrace what life gives you or be a big baby about it. Love your neighbor. ❤
I hope the roof actually has more to it than those boards, or it will be a swimming hole. Are you going to build custom shelves? It would be nice to see the final product. Blessings!
A lot of hard work, my mom and dad bought a farm house that had a basement built with mainly granite boulders from most likely came the fields on the farm. Dad still found rocks they'd dug out of the fields for years. Don't know what was used to keep it together when it was built but still stands. Using what they had probably. Some counties I saw in a video still take pride in rock cutting for foundations. An old but true method
A root cellar has to have atleast 5 feet thick of dirt surrounding the whole thing and a hallway atleast 10 feet long. Underground it stays 55 degrees all year round. And to get that benefit the hall way has to be atleast 10 feet with 2 sealing doors. To keep out the thermal exchange of air.
Tell that to the pioneers who dug a hole under the kitchen floorboards or in the back yard. There are many types of root cellars that don't meet those specs and work just fine.
Those "pioneers" you are referring to lived in dwellings that were not very well insulated and temperatures inside the home were usually in the mid 50s during the winter due to the inefficiencies of a fireplace verses a cast iron wood stove for home heating. So it is plausible that a stash "under the floor boards" could work for part of the year. My comment is what is backed by science and engineering for a year round root cellar. I would like you to put some cream or butter etc in a jar and place it under your kitchen floor boards for a few days in the middle of summer and not have an air conditioner on and see how well it keeps. I have been living off grid for close to 10 years now. And I have no modern refrigeration. I know what it takes to make and use a root cellar. Furthermore, do you know why in most states pipes have to be buried atleast 4 to 5 feet deep? Because of the frost line. In most cases even the harshest winter cant freeze below 5 feet. Too cold is just as bad as too hot in some cases. Below 5 feet of earth it stays 55 degrees all year round. I stand by my previous comment.
Not exactly. Plenty of root cellars in ohio are built into hillsides. And have 2 doors and no appreciable hallway and often a primitive ventilation system and a drainage ditch around the floor covered w boards. We store vegetables and stuff in em .. Some people also have Russian style root cellars with a hatch and ladder ..
I think, the video shows that the person who dug the hole just wanted to show how macho he was, not demonstrate that the hole he dug actual served a purpose. Me, i found the "hole" lived up to being a hole with a Stone wall, nothing more. Not practical and does not live up to a root cellar minimum requirement. But who knows, maybe the hole is not finished.
And all that with such basic tools...impressive and beautiful. What vision! I had to watch it all the way thru and still i don't know how he spliced those rocks lol. But seriously beautiful talent. Bravo💥💥💥
Nice job! I know for a fact that’s a lot work, lol. I take it your soil must drain real well that you won’t have water settle in the cellar? Definitely subscribing!
ohh man just watching this in fast motion was very tiring, don't know who you did this on your own. my back would have blown within the first 20 min of this project you are now considered the rock.
Maybe I just don't get it, is it finished? Doesn't it have to stay dry? I mean fantastic work it's awesome but Doesn't it have to be covered so the rain won't fall in? Again awesome it should last a really long time!
Nice work and great condensed vid. The one thing I am wondering about, after watching those in US doing similar things and the amount of food many store, is the small size. Maybe it's just camera distortion. Root cellars are rarely bothered with in my country, so, I'm no expert. Regardless, lovely work and good luck on the next project.
We are currently building a storehouse above the root cellar, because the 100% humidity inside the root cellar doesn't match some kinds of foods. I believe the total size of this project can afford to support a family. Stay tuned for [Part 2]!
I noticed the same thing! Large rounded boulders, smoothed by years of water action! Look for bedrock underneath those large round boulders. That’s where your gold will be!
Highly recommend a small solar fan for CO2 build up as well as putting a piece of 6 inch PVC with holes drilled in it 1/8" about 6" to a foot below the dirt floor (install at lowest point of the the floor if not level). Then get a small submersible pump to put in to use as needed. As it will flood without a place to drain. Also Gravel is a great for cellar floors, creek gravel is free.
River rocks are even better but only if they come from upstream of a dam. That’s important since the dam removes all the electricity so only upstream rocks are electric. If done that way you can get a transferred to run the lights in the cellar and use the excess for the cabin.
Havent you ever watched those people build an entire house by digging into the ground? One person by themselves without any tools in one day. Because it sure as hell looked like you did alot of extra work man. And then theres an art to rock stacking that makes better walls. I think you should watch some more off grid building videos man....cuz it looks like your working enormously hard for that which you made! It looks like a perfect place to run into snakes and spiders though.
see you will only survive in your small world...we had 18inch thick adobe walls and dirt floors i remember at nite watching lizards chase a scorpion then get chased back..also we used to catch rattle snakes to eat..rather tasty i might say
@@miguelcastaneda7236 im glad you like to eat rattle snakes and watch the scorpions roam...better you than me. I actually live in the desert where both of those live and they can stay outside.
I guess if given the choice between dying from Covid-19 or being crushed by a ton of rocks stacked precariously (in a way that is uncertain or dependent on chance) up the sides of a dirt hole in the ground behind my house I'd probably pick the hole full of rocks. Just don't make me build the damn thing.
You can be assured that precautionary measures and safety to prevent others from spreading this stuff around isn't a priority because if it were, you would not see untold thousands of people attending games on Thursday, and Friday for Jr. High and High School football and on Saturday you have the bigger College games going on. As Apostle Paul said "For the love of money is the root of all evil"
For me it might be the stone well Collaps because they didn't used with Cement. Later on with different kind of insect and some small animals get inside,
It's called dry stone setting. There are miles long walls of dry set stone that are still standing after at least 100 years. Of course it requires some knowledge of stone, and how to place them perfectly to lock them into place. Root cellars have been used in the USA for well over 300 years. I'm sure they figured out ways to keep insect and small animal damage down to a minimum. At the least enough to have food last them until the spring.
I can hear the water at the end of the video filling the pool. Seems like a waste of energy. I'd like to see the inside at the end of winter and early spring!
The bottom floor is mountain sand, so the drainage is perfect. Also I built a storehouse on this cellar. Please watch part2 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PF0VrIMw0XQ.html
