In this video, we got to explore close to home on Vancouver Island as well as have some fun with the family boating and swimming. We couldn’t believe we were swimming in 28 degree Celsius weather in October!!! I started clearing the land with the excavator in order to start with getting a road to the back of the property and most importantly clearing the build site for our future home. Of course with a property like this, we needed to get some quads out there as well! Thanks for following our journey!!!

The screw that is shorting will have made contact with hot and neutral. If you use any sort of conductivity tester, connected to a socket, and with the other end, touch all the screws near where the wires are, the ones that caused the problem will show conductivity to your wiring. Chances are, just backing that one out will fix it.

I built a shed room and used fairly long pin nails for the 1/4 inch wall board. one pin hit a wire to ground (careless & carefree) it took 5 hours to trip the breaker with a LED light on. electricians worse nightmare.

@nickfrumusa7705 Год назад

One tip on the stumps with a small excavator is don't cut the tree and then dig the stump. Leave the tree standing and dig around 2/3 of the stump and push the tree over. The leverage of the tree usually will pop the stump right out.

@malcommountie4326 Год назад

Drill all the holes . Fill with water .Winter will crack the rock .

@wojohowitz5432 Год назад

as for the name of the Hitachi excavator, there is a name for a Magical Hammer in Japanese which can "tap out anything wished for" or the "lucky hammer". Uchide no Kozuchi. So maybe call it "Kozuchi"

Best video yet!

@wolfbane8290 Год назад

There's an opportunity hidden in the stonework on the house-site you were looking at aside from the content itself. Finding a way to incorporate the stone you end up quarrying into the house construction would be super cool. I was immediately reminded of a stone sink video you made on another cabin project you documented many years ago. If it's granite or limestone, there's tons of options. Looking forward to the seeing how the project continues!

@shaleary4635 Год назад

You are doing what's best for the forest. By clearing dense forestry, you are actually helping all the other healthy standing trees. So good in you ❤

@forester9311 Год назад

Hi, long time watcher. I would heavily advise getting a cylinder guard for the front cylinder, for your mini. Without a guard its only a matter of time before you damage it, doing forestry.

@Yachatian Год назад

There’s a product called Betonamit that is used for fracturing rock that would work great for breaking up that rock to achieve grade for your house. It’s super simple to use. The loggers here on the Oregon coast use it for road building. Just drill a hole, mix it with water, and pour it in. 24 hours later, the rock is broken.

@sheph7 Год назад

I'd me more worried about mud-slides than fire, all the vegetation removal would make it more suspectable unless the slope is a lot less than it appears on the video. Absolutely stunning site

@LoganLovell Год назад

Was thinking the same thing. I would definitely consider some sort of retaining wall whether it be natural (rocks and logs) or manmade. Just as an extra safety measure. It would really suck to build something so incredible and be safe against wildfire, just to have a mudslide come through and damage something. Im sure he's considered it too though.

@JohnKrakatoa Год назад

this, and this, not just mud... water by itself...be wary of any road or trail building and think about water ...to not create dewatering routes... thats what actually causes fires these days... because we humans tend to break small water cycles...

@noahkelchner276 Год назад

If you plan on farming there you can use the logs to terrace out the mountain side. Just pile them up and roll dirt over it. It’ll end up being really for farming ground. People have been doing that for thousands of years. It turn the ground super fertile. And make it more usable

@charlestosi5199 Год назад

Have had good success with digging around the stump, back filling with charcoal (or stuff than burns, slowly) and lighting it off. Over night magic. Best to you and loved ones.

Love this moment with your family. I just closed on 48 acres with a house and I can't wait to start establishing my families life there. Although not as pretty as what you showed here, it's still very beautiful. I remember commenting a year or so ago when you first purchased this property that I had a similar goal but had no idea how I was going to accomplish that. Enough time and energy will allow us to achieve our goals and I was able to get my own piece of heaven.

@joshuapanton4675 Год назад

I don't usually make comments on videos, but if removing the large boulder is too big of a feat, there are some cool cabins that make a boulder like that a feature inside the cabin.

@Alexanderbuilds2001 Год назад

I was gonna say the mini excavator should be called katana (the samurai’s most important tool) but because it’s a mini it should be called Wakizashi (smaller samurai sword) or Tanto (knives used by samurai). I’m personally leaning towards Tanto.

@greencement8248 Год назад

Yes… Tanto

@rodwhite4492 Год назад

Site looks great. As far as your rock, there is a product you pour into the drilled holes, that expands as it dries and cracks the rock. Still have to drill the holes but you may not have to hammer for a week. Just a thought.

If you use the old school method use nature drill holes let them fill with water and when it freezes nature will find a way ( it will fracture ) leaving stone for your fireplace

Turn all the circuits off. Hook up the generator. Turn one circuit on at a time once you turn on the circuit with the short the generator will trip off. Then you know the circuit and you have narrowed down your hunt. Good luck

@johnfithian-franks8276 Год назад

Hi, checking for faults is easy, just put the multi-meter onto continue and clip one end to the earth or one of the other cables (without any power on) and check each screw or nail, if you get a tone you have found the screw or nail that has gone through the cable, then it is just a matter of removing the screw or nail and looking for the cable behind it.

@marciekarabacz1543 Год назад

You need to get the cuffs that go around the boots to keep any debris out.. that’s what all the Aussie workers wear

@resbum2554 Год назад

Demolition Dave Drilling and Blasting youtube channel. He's an Aussie that does blasting for sewers, roads, basements, etc. Sometimes he uses expanding foam instead of explosives for risk management in populated areas. Most of what he does is extremely hard granite and the expanding foam breaks it up. Might work for your problem boulder.

@nauticalknotcraft Год назад

Everything is coming along nicely. The excavator makes short work of clearing the land, great investment. Excellent vid all around. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

Always thought that it would be cool to turn a stump or two into a table. Using the root system to support the table top and the cut for the bottom foot.

@anthonywoods6968 Год назад

Instead of drilling and removing part of that one boulder you should design the house to fit the land and just make the house multi-level.

Please get yourself some kevlar chaps to wear while chainsawing, especially working in (an on) all the deadfall.

@jim6100 Год назад

Another outstanding video. I see Mathias Wandel entered a solution to your electrical problem. Listen to him. The guy is a genius. What I don't understand is how you learned to do all that stuff, cutting down trees, grading roads and landscape and who knows what else. I wouldn't have the self confidence to even attempt to do that.👍

@jennybarnes4806 Год назад

Jesse, get yourself some sock savers. Prevents all the crap getting between your boots and socks. Cheers

Your excavator should be named Koki ...of course 👍

@andresilva8444 Год назад

Yoko, your mini digger is called Yoko. You’re welcome.

@CarlFredrikson Год назад

Go old school to break up the rock. Drill holes in it and then fill with water and let freeze. Water will expand and crack the rock. It's how they mined back in the day.

@clintonjcook Год назад

Use dexpan expanding mortar to split the rock up. Just requires drilling holes and putting the mortar in. It is much less labor intensive.

@budbrady3289 Год назад

You might want to try a "toner and tracer" set as are used by phone techs. By disconnecting all power, and connecting the toner to the 110v wiring you should make all the wiring emanate a tone but if you get close the the nail it should get much stronger. May cut down on the time.

Hi. Burn those stumps over that big rock you need to break up, if you keep that fire burning as hot as you can for a couple of days you'll get cracks in the bolder, it will help getting it broken up.

@ArnoldJagt Год назад

A jack-hammer attachment would be handy.

@darrenjones5885 Год назад

Firebreaks protect wildlife. Management of the moorlands close to where I live was given to a bird protection charity. They stopped cutting firebreaks saying that the work would disturb nesting birds. The same birds that were using the moors despite years of firebreaks being maintained. We had a dry summer, the moors caught fire, and there was nothing to stop it spreading. More birds died than if the fire had been contained. Well intentioned do-gooders can do a lot of damage and aren’t the ones who suffer the consequences.

@stephenlees9752 Год назад

Rather than cut the rock down why not use that as your starting point/height? Just a suggestion it would give you more elevation at the front of the house 🏠
