Primitive Skills: How to make Spinning wheel, manual yarn rewinding machine (ep202) 

don't worry about your upload schedule / frequency of uploads. we all can see how much hard work and time goes into these videos, and they are definitely worth the wait! don't rush or cut corners - we like how the videos are now

I remember about a year ago, you posted that your cotton experiment had failed, and I poked fun at you because you seemed to have underestimated the amount of work it takes to make a shirt. Now you're here with cotton in abundance, creating a self-styled primitive spinning wheel from nothing but wood, bamboo and string! I love how you proved me wrong! Respect, Duong.

It would be good to add some dirt around your concrete floor. It is being under cut by the rain drips from the roof line. This will eventually weaken enough that it will crack your floor. Just a few inches of clay packed around the edges will help the water run away from the building and prevent further erosion under the floor.

Saya mengikuti kmu dari awal subscribe kamu masih kecil sampai sebesar ini, saya banyak mengetahui pengetahuan dari kehidupan kamu, walaupun saya juga dari perdesaan, terimakasih❤️😘

This man is creating his own industrial revolution

Станок для сепарации семян лучше укрепить продольно укосинами чтобы жесткость рамы была больше тогда будет легче работать и меньше клинить👍

Про кур, я от стариков слышал. Что в тяжелые голодные времена, курам лапки тряпками заматывали. Абы они не выкапывали картошку и др. корнеплоды. Автору , великому трудяге, респект и больше уважение!!!

For those who don't quite understand how the cotton is being turned into thread, the fibers are first rolled into a column (yarn-like thing) then wrapped around that long dark stick, the spindle. When the spindle spin (thanks to the turning of the great wheel it's attached to, the yarn might just get wrapped around the spindle and not twist, but the key lies in guiding it to the tip of the spindle at an angle. It then "slips off" the spindle's tip, and that causes the fibers to twist, locking them together. It also puts a lot of torque on the thread being spun. That torque is partially relieved by 'backing up the wheel" a little so you can guide the yarn back up to the spindle sheath (so it can easily be pulled off the spindle without losing its spot and thus getting tangled), but also by stretching out the thread and fiber bundle so that more fibers are pulled (with a twist) from the untwisted bundle. It's an experiment you can replicate with a spinning stick (chopstick, drinking straw, whatever), a bit of thread or ribbon (it's very clear how the twist happens with a flat ribbon), and by wrapping the ribbon so that as you turn the spindle, the ribbon "slips off" the end rather than rolling up flat and neat.

some minor changes that might make things easier for the cotton seed extraction: attach a basket to the frame on the side where the cotton seeds fall so that you don't have to pick them up later, and maybe have a ramp or chute on the side the cotton falls out on to guide it onto the basket on the side where the processed cotton comes out instead of dropping it straight down.

Dear Duong, we don't want any other type of video: We love your video style. As you already do. Because, if we want another style, we can already go watch another youtube channel: and we are here on your channel. Here! So we love your youtube channel, we love your video style and we love your lifestyle. Congratulations and thanks you so much for all your work

Đường vừa kỹ sư vừa là thợ rèn vừa là thợ hồ vừa là anh nông dân. . . .

Duong ... you are brilliant! You have created many great modern machines from the simple materials that exist around you. Your homestead is truly an inspired work that should makes your ancestors proud. From nothing but what the forest has to offer, you have been able to gather everything needed to become self sufficient for yourself and your family. May the heavenly Father Creator be with you always !

대단합니다~! 솜의 과정이나 닭들의 침범에 대비한 모습등...처음부터 쭉 보고 있고 이 영상으로 힐링중 입니다. 언제나 화이팅 부탁드립니다!!

Hi buddy. I think to prevent chickens from flying into your garden you need to trim some of their wing feathers so they can't fly over the fence. It is not an operation that causes pain to the animals and the feathers will be able to grow back, but to do so scissors would be needed, I think with a knife it is very difficult. Keep it up, I love your videos.

duong ! thanks for the videos. bamboo is a grass or broad leaf weed family member not a tree ;] you need to do somthing with the water supply as it is your water wheel has no power because there is only about 1 foot of head. with POWER run a sawmill and lathe to process wood ...power a blower for forge and kiln....dry your food in the kiln and a stamp mill to process food or ore.

Deseo que el 2023 venga lleno de prosperidad para ti y tu familia. Adelante

I like to watch for the chickens and the excellent skills

Wow, you’re good 👍🏽 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Great video. Maybe you could put some stones around the base of your new banana planters and fences to keep the chickens from scratching a new hole under them.

You have now entered the next primitive age!

My mother love doing it too!. Thanks 🙏

Thank you , Duong , 🐺

I would suggest using a Scarecrow that moves in the wind to deter the chickens from going into the veg garden, or make a crow kite that flies in the wind

Какой порядок вокруг вас!Вы хороший хозяин

For a first try, this is really good! You'll want to grease all moving parts where they intersect each other, same as for your cotton gin. You might also want to try brushing out the cotton more evenly in density. It's clumping as you spin it into thread (the clumps are called slubs) because the unspun cotton itself is not evenly distributed through its mass. The denser it is, the more it will tangle quickly rather than evenly. Making carding combs / brushes by hand is very difficult, though, I know! About the only thing I can suggest is maybe using boar bristles and some hoof & rawhide glue to make brushes that you can brush past each other, or carving a couple of combs that are sized to slot past each other, and just taking the time to comb the fibers to an even appearance. (That's a good task to do by the warmth of a fire, but you have to be careful with cotton, because a spark can ruin your work & your day! Wool will smolder and go out, but cotton can catch on fire.)

interesting design!

I here from Brazil follow your videos and I think it's fantastic. Congratulations and never stop posting videos.

Những kỹ năng vô cùng đẳng cấp

Go women Go!!! You and Duong work so hard to make a better life for your family. Love when you go to market because we can learn about the people you have contact with. Your personality and smile show you as a person. Love them both. I am contributing a thanks because it must be expensive to do these videos and every little bit helps.

Отличная прялка👍желаю улучшить скил в этом нелегком деле. Удачи тебе!

I love your channel Duong These handcrafts and everything you've done in your home are impressive!

Go, Duong! You are my Vietnamese Hero!

2:00 Because there is only one wall to protect the garden, the chickens have two other directions they can go to to get to the garden. The garden should be surrounded on at least three sides if not four. If the garden is fully contained then the only way they can get into it is by flying over, in which case it would be possible to make a small screen up top too, to make it covered by five sides. Time-consuming yes, but fully protected in case there was no other options. It doesn't seem impossible that they are simply walking around the pond and coming from the other direction, or going around the back of the property and walking past the initial fence to get in from the thicker bush and treeline. 37:40 I wonder if he will make a sheet or thin mat to sleep on or to keep himself warm in the colder days. Either one would be good for him. 👍

You're my motivator

Nơi bình yên và yêu thương dành cho bạn ❤️❤️❤️

It would be cool to add a clutch and get this hooked up to the water wheel with a foot pedal to the clutch so you can work with both hands!

Красава! Наконец-то сможет спрясть себе, что-нибудь модное)

Very impressive the way you removed the cotton seeds!

Duong is Jack of All Trades! Amazing guy!

wow😲 finally you make it!! cannot wait for knitted warm sweater and some beanie hat😂

Honestly I've been watching your videos since the begining and it is amazing to see the progress you achieved in so little time, you are also a skill teaching machine, thank you very much for your work it's been absolutely amazing to have witnessed this type of primitive skills.

A nice attachment from the water wheel power to help here would be great.

Keep piling up vegetation around the banana plants. As they decompose, it keeps the ground warmer and the moisture. Also nutrients are slowly released to the plant. Add more dirt also ontop to increase the strength of the tree and add even more nutrients to the ground. For the cotton extractor, I would have connected it to your water wheel. Great job on your projects. You have a lot of fans out there. You are the real deal! Your channel is the best in my opinion out of all the channels out there. You are amazing! Keep up the good work! The only thing I would say, try to spend more time with you kids! They grow up fast! Take care!

This so impressive, good luck to You!

YES, more industrialization!

Your chickens seem to love forbidden places 😄

Woooooooow Duong! My applause!! Good work!

Wow great you are the best 🙏🙏👍👍 God Bless You Bro

And WOW! Big applause at your spinning the cotton! 👌

Halo senang sekali ada video baru dari anda.. Untuk ayam dibuatkan kandang seperti rumah saja

Is it possible to connect this cotton seed remover to your waterwheel? Or is it maybe not worth the work?

Impressive work 👏 👌 👍 and ingenuity

I,m surprised no one living in you,re cotton great job be safe n warm peace

Make a scythe for convenient grass harvesting.

Wonderful job with the cotton

انا اتابعك منذ زمن تمنياتي لك التوفيق والنجاح

If you learned to make hide glue it might help with woodworking. Great stuff by the way.

make a box fence surrounding you garden. chickens have other ways to enter, the other side of the garden, they can enter also from the water

You are very ingenious. Great inventions of a cotton spinning wheel. Keep going. You’re doing great.

Chickens LOVE disturbed soil! I suggest 2 things. 1. Create a “chicken garden” - an area that is tilled / dug , and then planted with seeds of grains or vegetables that they like. 2. Make a fence on the 2 sides away from from the pond. The pond side should be okay since chickens tend to fly in a straight line, but the other 2 sides make access easy for them. They’ll just simply walk around the current fence. I don’t think they are flying over the fence, as they tend to fly up to the top of a fence and then fly down, and there’s no way to land on the fence you made. By the way, the fence is AWESOME, it just needs to be longer.

Thật sự ngưỡng mộ bạn Đường, những kỹ năng bạn thực hiện thậm chí mình còn chưa từng đc biết đến♥️♥️

If you devised a foot pedal for your clever spinning wheel, it would free both hands to manage the cotton thread. If you look at old European spinning wheels online, you can see what they use.

Wow... you've basically got everything you need to set up a simple lathe now!

amazing video !!

im gonna be faithful to this channel to the point where he's at the time hes at the industrial period.

This guy never ceases to impress me😯👍

Have you considered making a pole lathe to use when it comes to making cylindrical shapes or things such as spindles?

Здравствуйте я восхищаюсь вашим упорством и трудолюбием, здоровья вам и вашим родным я судовольствием смотрю ваши видео, удачи во всем и всегда.

I hope to see some warm clothes some time in the future

Applaus 👏👏👏 Sieht sehr gut schon aus.

if we had a couple of this man 10.000 years ago today we would already have a base in every planet of our solar system

puttiing in work, every single day! bravo!

I've learnt so much watching you and I aspire to be like you. keep uploading we love watching you

we are entering handmade cotton clothes!! amazing work!

Наступающим новым годом вас счастья мир вашему дому удачи в делах и жизни

thank you for being a great content creator!

спасибо за очень интересные видео!

I’m so excited!! I’ve been waiting for this since the first moment you planted cotton. It might be a good idea to loop the rope around the little wheel once so it’s less likely to jump off. And don’t stress about the release schedule, it just makes us more excited when it comes out😊😊😊

Дякую за кожне твоє відео

You post more often than some who use modern technology. I'm curious to know what you have planned to do with the cotton thread. I wondered why you didn't use the water wheel for the seed separator but I do know that would have been more work to set up. One thought I had which might not work is to coat the water wheel in concrete so that it doesn't rott as fast. You could use cotton fiber as a binder in the concrete.

Te felicito por tus ingenios 👍💪

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 i finally understand the separator! I apologize for being so slow! But I didn’t know that there was such a huge seed inside the cotton ball!

Try to make gunpowder also

Oba!!! Mais um vídeo do melhor canal de vida primitiva. Feliz Natal para você e sua família, Duong!!! Feliz 2023!!! 👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😊🇧🇷

I always get so excited when I see you've uploaded a new video. Thank you for sharing. Really brightened my day. Today's video was one of my favourites so far. The machine you built and seeing it work well was incredible. I look forward to seeing how the cotton turned out.

It was great seeing your seed separator work so well. I liked the video. Keep up the great work.

I can call you an engineer  So respect man❤️❤️

you are awesome thank you

Ну и мужик ,мастер на все руки,как у него все здорово получается,этому парню ничего не страшно,даже если вся цивилизация рухнет то он выживет,МОЛОДЧИНА.

The lard worked wonders.

Бамбук в ваших краях ростущий. Великолепное ростение. На зависть иным, Северным краям. Великое множество, применения, ремесляного. По своей структуре, особенности.

Excellent work on the spinning wheel. I really think you'd have an easier time if you comb the cotton before you try to spin it.

I think your banana project is very nice! Those trees will be happy, and it looks good! Lard was a good idea! Your cotton spinning machine is awesome! Keep up the great work!

Duong, Mr Sugar 😅 one day you could scrape all the fish waste and debris off of the bottom of your pond to use as fertilizer! I love all of your projects ❤

Wondering why you have not used the kiln to make tiles for the roofs? It might be a thought on the kitchen roof now that it is leaking from the rotten palm frowns. Keep up the great work.

Great great!! as susual ! the BEST 👍👍

Tu pourras te faire des couvertures avec le coton 😁😉 . Ou alors tu peux créer un grand bac ou tu peux verser le coton dedans et ça peut te faire un lit ça te protégera du froid 👍🇫🇷🇫🇷

Спасибо за видео!)

Extraordinaire. Tout mon Respect. Quelle patience, quelle détermination. Quelle courage. Pour relever tous ces défis. 😊👍

Ciao Duong, complimenti per quello che realizzi, è sempre bello vedere la passione che ci metti nel creare oggetti ed attrezzi per la tua fattoria, ti auguro buon anno nuovo e tanta felicità.... Aspetto il prossimo video, Ciao!
