EPISODE 12: The possibilities of Pallet Wood are Endless!! A few more projects and then quite an important Theory Time which we feel strongly about. We have already filmed the next episode, as it is a much bigger project. It will be on the channel soon! Thanks for all the support guys, really appreciate it - Mike
As an alternative to growing the flowers I would love to see you grow some herbs to use in your catch n cooks. Maybe some dill, basil, rosemary, and thyme to name a few!
You have a late 19th/early 20th Century Morroccan Kourmmya Dagger. It should be about 40.7 cm. long in its scabbard. The curved blade shape is meant to resemble a boar's tusk; the idea being that a boar is a ferocious fighter when cornered. His tusks cut with a slashing motion of the tip and tusk edge. There is also some tradition that the knife wards off the 'Evil Eye.' The pommel is said to have a peacock tail shape. Typically, the handle is mounted with sheet silver decorations, deeply inset and with a similar solid or faced scabbard and mounts at the top for fastening into a sash or baldric. (See LionGate Arms and Armour for a good photo. Current prices seem to vary from US$750-1500.)
you forgot that it considered a religious item by most muslims as it a sign they have reached man hood and are given one specifically made for them to keep for the rest of their lives ... even various kids will carry them to school once they have received one ... as it is considered a religious item the schools are not able to stop them bringing them on grounds of religious persecution.
So can I say my Glock is a religious item and carry it where ever I want regardless of laws? Not that I don't carry it everywhere I go as it is. Semper Fi
You must not know North Africa. Very few Sikhs there. I lived in Saudi Arabia for several years and the Sunni Muslim men there also carried this style of dagger--either real or decorative.
It was going out of favor, even in rural regions, thirty-five years ago. I was a guest at a dinner where one of the older men still wore one. In any case, the Koummya is a Moroccan knife.
Watching these makes me miss my dad, lost him in August 2004. I would have loved to do something like this with him. Cherish your loved ones folks... you never know when you will lose them. ❤
I absolutely LOVE it when you guys are cooking over the fire or on your wood stove. You could do a dedicated ASMR channel on your cooking bits. . . Shoot, I even found the sounds of the hammering, sawing, etc when there is no dialogue therapeutic.
i absolutely enjoy watching your videos with your dad. i was lucky enough to have a close relationship with my dad,and he tought me bushcraft and i raised my son and daughter the same way. im your dads age so my dad has been gone a while but your videos very much remind me of him. Thanks!
These flower boxes are so nice! I like them. Well, I have no idea what flowers will grow well there - in the woods, with little light and water and hungry deer and rabbits around! 😊
Just started watching this today. I love it! I know that you guys don't live there, but I sure could! Don't worry about the people who ask the same question over, and over. Some don't have the sense to realize that all they have to do is watch the first 11 videos. Well, I wish you guys well, and hope to see more of your stuff. I am going to sign off now, and finish watching the rest of this.
From USA....state of Oregon...love this Idea we have a lot of homeless people that would love to have this set up... its so cheep to build.Keep the vids coming.
Just planted lavender, Marigolds, and mint to keep away mosquitoes.. Yellow Grass also keeps away the mosquitoes.. Lavender and Mint I think is especially good for keeping away mice too! Love the video!
It is nice to see I'm not the only one with a knife like that, have always wondered what kind it was and where it came from. The markings are different but the style is the same I've had this knife for about 30 years now I picked it up at a flea market, thanks for all the great videos and it is good to see a father and son doing things together keep up the good work.
Really like this project of yours, doing stuff together as father and son! Going fishing with my father has always been a nice tradition that I cherish. Awesome videos, thumbs up from Sweden
C’mon guys! Get our tinfoil hats! It’s theory time! I love listening to papa ta talk, it’s awesome seeing someone get into interesting conversation like this. It definitely gets you thinking alternatively which leads to great things!
Dad reminds me of my granddad. He and I built all sorts of things together. He taught me to respect and use tools as an extension of yourself. Sadly we lost him after her retired when I was only 12 years old. He didn't make it to 70, I believe firmly that he died of boredom, confined to a small 4th story flat. He worked in the motor industry all his life, but his life was his family and the large garden with massive compost beds and veggies for Africa (he was a Scot who grew up in Africa). Anyway, I love the Brit dry sense of humor. So I guess that's why I keep watching ;) I probably know too much regarding cell phones and the effect on one's health. My generation of 40 somethings seems hardest hit, we were duped into a false sense of security with regards to the effects of tech, GMOs and margarine, to mention a few. My kids were vaccinated and are both fine, We are leaving Africa soon to New Zealand so I can give them more of the "great outdoors" as I grew up with , without it being overly expensive and so life threatening. Thanks again for the great work you blokes do. PS Mum in-law, a Brit, was on and on about the land use and cutting of saplings. I understand her viewpoint, large parts of natural, rural Britain could get decimated if left unchecked, but great to see you out there living life and "being boys"!
Hi boys, I think you guys are great. It's nice how father and son build together and have fun. Enjoy the time. But pay a little attention to the diet. Always buger, steak, bacon, eggs and sauce could take your fun away. So a good tip is a vegetable garden. Greetings from Switzerland.
I am reminded of the country-western song that goes something like this: "There is always love in daddy's hands." You are a blessed young man there TA Outdoors.
Dad's a nice character, must have been nice to have grown up with a dad like that, you can go out and do fun stuff with! As for the theory, well, 2 seconds on google throws it out the door, but ah well. I get the point of view of someone who's a bit older and wonders about the rapid pace at which things are changing around them!
Impatiens are a perfect flower for shady areas. They are beautiful and grow very well with little attention. I've even had them come back the following year when I covered them through winter.
Simply brilliant. That cabin and chairs are incredible. Looks like an awesome place to just set back and take a break for awhile. What special times to share with your father. Thanks to both of you for sharing. All the Best.
Since you have a lot of shade there, violets, or violas, would be nice with some hostas. The hostas and violas will come back every year. Add some marigolds for even more color. I LOVE your pallet building! You make some of the coolest things. Keep building!
More cool projects! I like the cooking scenes and the theorizing. It gives you something fun to do inside the cozy cabin. How about stories? I bet your dad has some doozies to tell. You are a great team! Love these pallet wood videos
i had a friend years ago that had a dagger simpular to the ones you have there. she got it from Saudi Arabia and belonged to one of the hunters when traveling the desert. she told me that the incense holder at the end was used for "prayer" time and placed herbs in it to do community smudging. she used to use tooth paste to clean it, was so amazing. i'm not saying its the same kind, but it looks a lot like it.
I'm from Germany and I love this father and son project a lot. I also love the theory time and like to listen to your dad's language and theories. Your dad is smart and clever and you both have endless pallet wood ideas. I always just watch and keep calm. I just want to say thank you for this great project. Because I love it that much, I sometimes do some translation into German. So don't wonder about the strange requests.
Here in northern Minnesota USA you would need to climatize that pallet hut. We used logs to built cabins. The old saw mills use to mill square logs to built with. Many of the old finlanders used them for homes. Some new homes are just spray foam over a chicken wire form...that are very warm. But it was on an Indian reservation I saw a YURT straw home. He had erected 4 posts in a square and had 8 posts in and octagon surrounding the square. The posts were holding bales of hay/straw in a wall. He had stucco cement over them. The posts also held a roof and loft/ceiling/2nd floor. He had a chain saw to make boards. His son was building himself a yurt too. There was a very large one used as a garage and shop. They used an old "timber jack" log skidded (tractor that lift logs and drags them out of the woods with a small dozer blade to clear land and build roads....to bring logs to an area they could process them. A old hay baler and tractor mower made the bales. Divorce laws had forced the men unto the reservation land where the law could not take their processions and property for child support rip-offs by courts run by anti male judges. The system is not fair as money collected is heavily charge for administration fees and what is left may go to the wife/family. IF she is on welfare, they hold any excess in the government purse and only give her program minimums funds. Those that are partial Indian escape to Indian land and work Indian jobs where they are exempt from white man laws. Yurts are one exemption from building codes. The yurts require a new coat of stucco now and them. They are very warm any easier to build then a cabin. Lifting is easy as the posts can become like a ships mast. To put up a pole....dig a hole below the frost line using a very long hand spade and a very long handle scoop spoon with a frost bar Once you have a hole dig a ramp ditch to halfway down one side and place a long board in the hole. Lay the post butt against the board over the ditch. lift and "pike" the pole to upright until it flips into the hole. Pull out the board and plumb post and tamp in dirt to set. Use as a lifting mast is optional.
Love these videos. Just built a stacked rain barrel stand. Two 50 litre barrels. Awesome for the off grid farm. Skipped spring here in the Rockies. Temp here yesterday 28c.
AC,DC I Knew your dad was a rocker best band ever😁👍👍👍👍 I think you should be on TV, though as I don't have a licence if you went onto TV I'd loose out as I only watch CZcams or Netflix. I love everything you and your dad do, I'm even into watching fishing... which is totally unbelievable and that's all down to your dad. I always said I'd never have a mobile phone, then my son's said as I was on my own and drove every where on my own, I should consider getting a phone just in case, so I got a pay as you go which cost all of £9.99 for the phone this was around 1996 or something like. At first I never used it as it was for emergency use only, but then I used it and now I'm on a contract and have to have most of the new technology, thought I do tend to wait a couple of year till it doesn't cost so much and I know it works, but never the less if some one had told me back in the 1990s how I'd be regarding mobile phones I'd have laughed at them, seems I was suckered in just like everyone else. You dad could be right about it causing problem with the brain, such as dementia, also if you look at some of the youth of today they definitely have problems, which could be down to mobile phone use. With the Alzheimer's could it be that the numbers haven't changed so much as the condition is now talked about more openly, where as in the past family's kept such knowledge private, everyone knew that grandad or grandma had a problem but it was kept hushed up and all the family helped out. Nowadays family's aren't like that as much, also the size of family's are now much smaller, my Mom was one of 8 or 9 and that's not including the 2 who died, my Dad was one 7, and I was 1 of 6 myself, but we've all had only 2 children other than one brother who had 3, so there's not so many son's or daughter's to look after other members of the family, so they need outside help, but as more and more people need this help the NHS and other bodies that could help are now strapped for cash so they bring to the press the numbers they are having to deal with to try and get more money, so we get to hear about these problems more and more. I do think though it wouldn't hurt to look into the effect of the mobile phone on people's brains, I'll be surprised if it happens as mobile phone company's won't like anyone digging too deep, not in there interest.
As an alternative to growing the flowers I would love to see you grow some herbs to use in your catch n cooks. Maybe some dill, basil, rosemary, and thyme to name a few!
I love the pallet wood cabin series!! You and your (crazy) dad together is always special. He is so funny and I always get a good chuckle watching these. Keep 'em coming, can't wait to see what you plant in the flower boxes. God Bless. From Texas
So glad you did that colab with Alec and I found your channel. These videos, especially the ones with your father, are extremely heartwarming. So very envious of your relationship with your father!
I want to thank you for this series. Every day when I pull into work I pass a stack of fresh pallets next to the dumpster. I often wondered what could you build with those pallets. My ideas were much smaller than yours. This series has opened my eyes wider and larger. Keep broadcasting!!
You guys are cool! My siblings and I lost our Father this month in 1994, and it seems still quite fresh. I am a father of 3 girls and a boy, and am happily married to their mother, who has been my partner for the past 22 years and we enjoy fishing. My hope is to get my hunting license this year and take my son small game hunting and camping in the fall. I think most families should do the things you two do because those are the things we should cherish, togetherness! I know that probably isn't a proper English word! Please forgive I am a Pacific Islander born on Guam and raised in the U.S. so please forgive! All jokes aside you two are my main inspiration on my future plans and you guys keep putting up the "Totally Awesome" vids, I watch both channels and now Alec's channel, "Awesome" young chap that one.
Since the weather is getting warmer, time to build a dedicated fire pit for cooking/grilling, camp fire etc.. An earthened oven for baking your bread could be part of the the out doors kitchen. If I had the place to, I "wood" build my own pallet wood "ranch" like this one. Alas, I live in a tiny house, on a tiny lot, in a tiny town, in a not so tiny county, in a not so tiny state, in a not so tiny country. I do have room for a raised bed garden! Pallet wood all the way! Good to see the both of you back at it. Great #12! Thanxz
I remember yonks ago my mobile used to give me toothache and headaches, and there was talk about lowering the output power of the phones because the phone masts were on the increase so its natural to assume they were messing us up, but todays phones are a lot less powerful because most of us are never more than 2 miles from a phone mast. but yes, I am with you on this.
Ahhh, so wonderful to see such a fantastic, little J.R. They are a delight. My girl, Ruthy (Baby-Ruth when being formally introduced.) is 11. Her eyesight has faded a far-bit, her backside is as broad as her, "Momma's," however, she is still the most ruthless terror to ever patrol the front-deck. I already grieve for my loss-to-be.
Hey Mike thought I'd share this by saying I made a sheath for my axe I made it out of an old table mat which was a thick fabric I measured it to fit snug and for the axe to slide out when it wasn't buttoned and sewed two ✌ sides, I the sewed a button on and then made a slit in the fabric for the button had great fun doing it and the stitching hasn't failed me yet. Keep up the amazing videos would love to try this just no one is willing to give up a bit of there woodland for me and my mate to make a cabin.
Hi guys! I know this video is a few months old, but I have just started watching the series and I thought the same thing about the egg shells. You should also put your tea bags and coffee grounds in the compost as well. Cheers!
You forgot your curtain. I dont trust any big company. Greed has killed this world. Love watching you guys. Hello from the states "georgia" . Be safe and waiting on the next video.
Hey guys Randy Johnson here from Eastern Kentucky and I think you guys are doing a great job with the pallets, and I build a lot things from pallets as well and I'm working on some pallet projects, keep up the great work.
I suggest marigolds for the vegetable plot as they repell pest insects. For the porch planters, sage plants would be really good. Deer won't eat them, they are a good tea for Dad ( especially the blossoms) and for general cooking. Both plants are hardy. Especially the sage as it thrives on neglect and live for years, just cut them back. Mine lived in Oklahoma, USA for 4 years.
Brilliant vid again chaps. I found your theory time intresting. I feel it's a bit of every thing. The radiation around us from tv,phons,wifi,electric cables/pylons, the food we eat and so on. All the tec we have thees days is'nt allways as good as they make out and its slowly effecting us in a very negative way.
So my family has a cabin on a lake in Canada, and I'm graduating this year. I've always wanted a cabin of my own, though, and never thought I'd be able to make one in the next year though (I'm graduating in a week). Because you guys started this series, it has inspired me to build a little cabin on my uncles property this coming year, and I will have my own little cabin. Never would have thought of something like this without you guys!
Hello, I always watch your videos and I actually like adding the flower’s idea in the cabin project, I think the flowers are going to be a good thing to add .. and hey about the dagger I am a collector from Lebanon middle east and I guess it’s Turkish from the Ottoman empire’s period it looks so Mediterranean especially from the serpent!!
This is gonna be a long one but hopefully somone will learn somthing. I'm not a docter but in the first year of my physics degree so I know a bit about electromagnetic (EM) radiation (although I'm not an expert!). I remember reading several studies that support the idea that mobile phones increase the risk of brain tumours. This is beacuse phones emit microwaves which are part of the EM spectrum. This includes radiowaves, microwaves, infrared, visiable light (the stuff we see) ultra violet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays. This is all actually the same stuff, with radio waves having a long wavelength and low frequency, all the way up to gamma rays with a short wavelength and high frequency. The energy of the waves (which relates to there 'damaging potential') is actually related to the frequency, so microwaves are pretty low down in terms of energy, infact they have less energy than the light we see with! However, mobile phones may produce an 《intense》source, meaning they can produce lots of low energy waves close to our head. That's why the sun doesn't vaporise us because it produces high energy beams (of visable, UV, x-rays and gamma rays) but far away so they are 'spread out'. As far as I'm aware, the cause of Alzheimer's is poorly understood, but it is associated with 'plaques' and 'tangles' in the brain. This makes it less likely to be accociated with phones but it is often associated with head injuries, hypertention or depression (although not enough studies have been done to rule this out). All in all reducing the amout of time we spend on our phones certainty isn't a bad thing, even if it is to spend more time outside! Love the channel and keep the theories coming!
Kev Pinder Again, I don't claim to be an expert on this subject but aluminium foil does refect microwave radiation to some extent, so mabey tin foil hats aren't as silly as they sound! However, the mechanism in which this happens and the effectiveness of use with phones is a bit beyond me. Perhaps I'll get back to you after I have done my electromagnetics module next year. Happy bushcrafting!
jimbobbydave If depression could be a potential cause of Alzheimer's than phones could be related, cuz sitting around all day makes you depressed and people are constantly sitting around on their phones all day.
Well it's getting on for 30 years that mobile phones have been around and I'm yet to read any peer reviewed paper stating that mobile phones cause any type of trauma. My microwave when it runs cuts out the WiFi reception on my laptop though, so it's definitely not contained enough.
alminum gold copper iron and even pyrite all work well at guiding em waves ... search out wave guides and tubes and you will learn loads about how to manipulate these em waves .... at 3GHz you are essentially slow cooking your brain with EM waves ... alzeheimer's is known to be caused by heavy metals such as mercury and the like also aluminum does aid this as well ... also various food additives are known to be a leading contributor to the onset of alzheimer's ... most commonly found in breakfast cereals and other processed grain foods ... a good one to look at is Lucky Charms ... they actualy add paint thinner as a thickening agent ... atm the name slips my mind but you will recognise it once you realise they used the words instead of the initials under which it is sold as a paint thinner or cleaner ... ah yeah TSP ... Tri Sodium Phosphate ... yup it is actually IN your lucky charms ... . generally man made chemical's in food are going to kill us before nature does ... dont believe me ... look at the various drug ad's on tv and pay attention to the disclaimer's ... such as deperession medicine that may cause severe depression or suicidal thoughts or acts ... and this is to HELP you ... yeah right it is meant to keep BIg companies in business peddling their wares NOT make you better.
+0623kaboom what you said about trisodium phosphate really freaked me out, so I looked it up. I found this and thought it might interest you as well: www.berkeleywellness.com/healthy-eating/food-safety/article/trisodium-phosphate-food-really-paint-thinner Don't get me wrong, I agree with 90% of what you said and mentioned it myself (commented above). The only other thing I disagreed with was about depression meds - those symptoms MOSTLY only happen to teenagers (already screwed up hormones) & the elderly (usually a combination of meds/weakened systems)...or average people taking a drug/medication their prescriber isn't aware of. Depression meds are the only thing that's ever helped with my "issues" - as long as they're taken correctly. Chemistry can be good, when it's absolutely necessary AND used moderately. However as a culture we seem to want to play fast and loose with the laws of chemistry...such as trisodium phosphate, as you've mentioned. It's all these overdone chemicals (hormones, pesticides, etc) going on in our diet that's killing us. What you said about man-made chemicals killing us before nature does was dead-on. If you look at any (extinct) species, ultimately their demise is directly related to getting too greedy and lazy (failure to do their part) in their environment: they kill off their main food source, or overpopulate (and therefore spread ever-evolving disease through species), crap in their water, whatever. As humans, we too are greedy, overpopulated, diseased creatures who crap in our water. Unless there are some drastic changes (and maybe a few tragic as well) then as a species we are not long for this world. Whew! Two enormous posts on one page. I'm cutting myself off for the day. Sorry about the lengthy chat.
EPISODE 12: The possibilities of Pallet Wood are Endless!! A few more projects and then quite an important Theory Time which we feel strongly about. We have already filmed the next episode, as it is a much bigger project. It will be on the channel soon! Thanks for all the support guys, really appreciate it - Mike
TA Outdoors you should really look into permaculture.
As an alternative to growing the flowers I would love to see you grow some herbs to use in your catch n cooks. Maybe some dill, basil, rosemary, and thyme to name a few!
TA Outdoors plant some herbs to cook with in ur plant boxes
hey guys wheres the post cards... did ya forget the pins again.. lol... looking forward to seeing them all on the cabin wall.. =)
get some chickens up in this bitch, woadie

Your dad just gets cooler and cooler ... AC/DC 🤘
I just love your dad! Very hilarious! He is very smart and great sense of humor!
Always a pleasure seeing you and your Dad doing things together.
Glad to see you and Graeme at the pallet house. I so enjoy the projects you build.
Another great Dad and son out door adventure. You guys have more fun and in doing so bless your subs with a picture on how life should be.
Another great video Mike! I love the collaboration with you and your dad so much love there!
Touching subject my grandad has the same problem hes unfortunately getting worse and worse but every day i can see and talk to him is a blessing
Love this episode, it wasn't long enough though.Enjoy your dad's humor.Also love your little village.
I absolutely LOVE it when you guys are cooking over the fire or on your wood stove. You could do a dedicated ASMR channel on your cooking bits. . . Shoot, I even found the sounds of the hammering, sawing, etc when there is no dialogue therapeutic.
i absolutely enjoy watching your videos with your dad. i was lucky enough to have a close relationship with my dad,and he tought me bushcraft and i raised my son and daughter the same way. im your dads age so my dad has been gone a while but your videos very much remind me of him. Thanks!
love watching the pallet wood cabin series! the cabin looks great!
This channel has definitely inspired me to get out and build things my first project was a double planter box as a gift for my mother
Plant something purple. Love all purple flowers. Love the improvements this video
These flower boxes are so nice! I like them. Well, I have no idea what flowers will grow well there - in the woods, with little light and water and hungry deer and rabbits around! 😊
Just started watching this today. I love it! I know that you guys don't live there, but I sure could! Don't worry about the people who ask the same question over, and over. Some don't have the sense to realize that all they have to do is watch the first 11 videos.
Well, I wish you guys well, and hope to see more of your stuff. I am going to sign off now, and finish watching the rest of this.
I love when your father is in the video he was very funny with the woodwork pigeon 🐦 is expression was priceless
From USA....state of Oregon...love this Idea we have a lot of homeless people that would love to have this set up... its so cheep to build.Keep the vids coming.
You know what this camp needs? A pallet wood outhouse.
Yep! A ladies Loo.
You two do great work together
Just planted lavender, Marigolds, and mint to keep away mosquitoes.. Yellow Grass also keeps away the mosquitoes.. Lavender and Mint I think is especially good for keeping away mice too! Love the video!

Dad reminds me of my granddad. He and I built all sorts of things together. He taught me to respect and use tools as an extension of yourself. Sadly we lost him after her retired when I was only 12 years old. He didn't make it to 70, I believe firmly that he died of boredom, confined to a small 4th story flat. He worked in the motor industry all his life, but his life was his family and the large garden with massive compost beds and veggies for Africa (he was a Scot who grew up in Africa). Anyway, I love the Brit dry sense of humor. So I guess that's why I keep watching ;)
I probably know too much regarding cell phones and the effect on one's health. My generation of 40 somethings seems hardest hit, we were duped into a false sense of security with regards to the effects of tech, GMOs and margarine, to mention a few. My kids were vaccinated and are both fine, We are leaving Africa soon to New Zealand so I can give them more of the "great outdoors" as I grew up with , without it being overly expensive and so life threatening.
Thanks again for the great work you blokes do.
PS Mum in-law, a Brit, was on and on about the land use and cutting of saplings. I understand her viewpoint, large parts of natural, rural Britain could get decimated if left unchecked, but great to see you out there living life and "being boys"!

I absolutely love watching your dad and you in these videos. It is so heartwarming.
Impatiens are a perfect flower for shady areas. They are beautiful and grow very well with little attention. I've even had them come back the following year when I covered them through winter.
Blinding. Your Dads just ace!
I love u both you are a very great father & son buddies
Thank you both for yet another exiting video! :)
Haha 🤣 I don’t half love ya dad he’s so funny fantastic father love all your videos too Xx
You two... what a team you are. Thank you again for making me smile.😀
Love hearing the birds chirping
Thank you guys! We all enjoy your videos allot! In fact it makes our day! We all look to more! Thanks again!
time to make a LOO---TOILET---OUT HOUSE!!! --- love the show guys --from the us!!!
Simply brilliant. That cabin and chairs are incredible. Looks like an awesome place to just set back and take a break for awhile. What special times to share with your father. Thanks to both of you for sharing. All the Best.
Very good work!!!.,a very nice place to go on vacation get out of town and even to live if necessary!!!
Since you have a lot of shade there, violets, or violas, would be nice with some hostas. The hostas and violas will come back every year. Add some marigolds for even more color. I LOVE your pallet building! You make some of the coolest things. Keep building!
Do you know the bacon man the bacon 🥓 man. Sniff sniff mmmm yummm
Love the video idea I did a motorcycle shed out of pallets 8 yrs ago
More cool projects! I like the cooking scenes and the theorizing. It gives you something fun to do inside the cozy cabin. How about stories? I bet your dad has some doozies to tell. You are a great team! Love these pallet wood videos
i love that every new pallet cabin video has been "like, #12 or something."
Can't wait to see what the future holds at this location with you and your dads passion and ingeniousness
On your next fishing trip save the fish parts and add it to your compost box. It’s great nutrients for the soil. Love your vids keep them coming
i had a friend years ago that had a dagger simpular to the ones you have there. she got it from Saudi Arabia and belonged to one of the hunters when traveling the desert. she told me that the incense holder at the end was used for "prayer" time and placed herbs in it to do community smudging. she used to use tooth paste to clean it, was so amazing. i'm not saying its the same kind, but it looks a lot like it.
I'm from Germany and I love this father and son project a lot. I also love the theory time and like to listen to your dad's language and theories. Your dad is smart and clever and you both have endless pallet wood ideas. I always just watch and keep calm. I just want to say thank you for this great project. Because I love it that much, I sometimes do some translation into German. So don't wonder about the strange requests.
Love the series guys , dad your a treasure ,keep it up . Makes me miss my dad . Thanks
Hey That's a Nice Lil Man Cave 4Real A nice Lil Get Away...
Very good upgrades. Thanks for the update.
I was in tears laughing when he came back with the cauliflower!
Nothing wrong with using a shovel as a hammer! Lol good update guys
Hi, I'm from Spain, I really like your videos, I hope you continue to make them so funny. Thank you very much for these videos.
Here in northern Minnesota USA you would need to climatize that pallet hut. We used logs to built cabins.
The old saw mills use to mill square logs to built with. Many of the old finlanders used them for homes.
Some new homes are just spray foam over a chicken wire form...that are very warm.
But it was on an Indian reservation I saw a YURT straw home.
He had erected 4 posts in a square and had 8 posts in and octagon surrounding the square. The posts were holding bales of hay/straw in a wall. He had stucco cement over them. The posts also held a roof and loft/ceiling/2nd floor.
He had a chain saw to make boards. His son was building himself a yurt too.
There was a very large one used as a garage and shop.
They used an old "timber jack" log skidded (tractor that lift logs and drags them out of the woods with a small dozer blade to clear land and build roads....to bring logs to an area they could process them.
A old hay baler and tractor mower made the bales.
Divorce laws had forced the men unto the reservation land where the law could not take their processions and property for child support rip-offs by courts run by anti male judges. The system is not fair as money collected is heavily charge for administration fees and what is left may go to the wife/family. IF she is on welfare, they hold any excess in the government purse and only give her program minimums funds. Those that are partial Indian escape to Indian land and work Indian jobs where they are exempt from white man laws. Yurts are one exemption from building codes.
The yurts require a new coat of stucco now and them. They are very warm any easier to build then a cabin. Lifting is easy as the posts can become like a ships mast.
To put up a pole....dig a hole below the frost line using a very long hand spade and a very long handle scoop spoon with a frost bar
Once you have a hole dig a ramp ditch to halfway down one side and place a long board in the hole. Lay the post butt against the board over the ditch. lift and "pike" the pole to upright until it flips into the hole. Pull out the board and plumb post and tamp in dirt to set. Use as a lifting mast is optional.
Love these videos. Just built a stacked rain barrel stand. Two 50 litre barrels. Awesome for the off grid farm.
Skipped spring here in the Rockies. Temp here yesterday 28c.
AC,DC I Knew your dad was a rocker best band ever😁👍👍👍👍 I think you should be on TV, though as I don't have a licence if you went onto TV I'd loose out as I only watch CZcams or Netflix. I love everything you and your dad do, I'm even into watching fishing... which is totally unbelievable and that's all down to your dad. I always said I'd never have a mobile phone, then my son's said as I was on my own and drove every where on my own, I should consider getting a phone just in case, so I got a pay as you go which cost all of £9.99 for the phone this was around 1996 or something like. At first I never used it as it was for emergency use only, but then I used it and now I'm on a contract and have to have most of the new technology, thought I do tend to wait a couple of year till it doesn't cost so much and I know it works, but never the less if some one had told me back in the 1990s how I'd be regarding mobile phones I'd have laughed at them, seems I was suckered in just like everyone else. You dad could be right about it causing problem with the brain, such as dementia, also if you look at some of the youth of today they definitely have problems, which could be down to mobile phone use. With the Alzheimer's could it be that the numbers haven't changed so much as the condition is now talked about more openly, where as in the past family's kept such knowledge private, everyone knew that grandad or grandma had a problem but it was kept hushed up and all the family helped out. Nowadays family's aren't like that as much, also the size of family's are now much smaller, my Mom was one of 8 or 9 and that's not including the 2 who died, my Dad was one 7, and I was 1 of 6 myself, but we've all had only 2 children other than one brother who had 3, so there's not so many son's or daughter's to look after other members of the family, so they need outside help, but as more and more people need this help the NHS and other bodies that could help are now strapped for cash so they bring to the press the numbers they are having to deal with to try and get more money, so we get to hear about these problems more and more. I do think though it wouldn't hurt to look into the effect of the mobile phone on people's brains, I'll be surprised if it happens as mobile phone company's won't like anyone digging too deep, not in there interest.
Thanks for yet another great video.
As an alternative to growing the flowers I would love to see you grow some herbs to use in your catch n cooks. Maybe some dill, basil, rosemary, and thyme to name a few!
Awesome vid as ever, this is the ultimate channel to chill out to
I love the pallet wood cabin series!! You and your (crazy) dad together is always special. He is so
funny and I always get a good chuckle watching these. Keep 'em coming, can't wait to see what
you plant in the flower boxes. God Bless. From Texas
So glad you did that colab with Alec and I found your channel. These videos, especially the ones with your father, are extremely heartwarming. So very envious of your relationship with your father!
I want to thank you for this series. Every day when I pull into work I pass a stack of fresh pallets next to the dumpster. I often wondered what could you build with those pallets. My ideas were much smaller than yours. This series has opened my eyes wider and larger. Keep broadcasting!!
You guys are cool! My siblings and I lost our Father this month in 1994, and it seems still quite fresh. I am a father of 3 girls and a boy, and am happily married to their mother, who has been my partner for the past 22 years and we enjoy fishing. My hope is to get my hunting license this year and take my son small game hunting and camping in the fall. I think most families should do the things you two do because those are the things we should cherish, togetherness! I know that probably isn't a proper English word! Please forgive I am a Pacific Islander born on Guam and raised in the U.S. so please forgive! All jokes aside you two are my main inspiration on my future plans and you guys keep putting up the "Totally Awesome" vids, I watch both channels and now Alec's channel, "Awesome" young chap that one.
Jacks might have to be pinned up occasionally. Lol. He’s so cute.
Oallet wood cabin series still going awsome love to watch the amazing idea you both come up with keep it up mike and graeme 😁
Since the weather is getting warmer, time to build a dedicated fire pit for cooking/grilling, camp fire etc.. An earthened oven for baking your bread could be part of the the out doors kitchen. If I had the place to, I "wood" build my own pallet wood "ranch" like this one. Alas, I live in a tiny house, on a tiny lot, in a tiny town, in a not so tiny county, in a not so tiny state, in a not so tiny country. I do have room for a raised bed garden! Pallet wood all the way! Good to see the both of you back at it. Great #12! Thanxz
I remember yonks ago my mobile used to give me toothache and headaches, and there was talk about lowering the output power of the phones because the phone masts were on the increase so its natural to assume they were messing us up, but todays phones are a lot less powerful because most of us are never more than 2 miles from a phone mast. but yes, I am with you on this.
It looks like your old boy is getting ready for the wife to visit....Peace from Canada,,all in jest..
this 2 gentelmen r insparational👏👏
Ahhh, so wonderful to see such a fantastic, little J.R. They are a delight. My girl, Ruthy (Baby-Ruth when being formally introduced.) is 11. Her eyesight has faded a far-bit, her backside is as broad as her, "Momma's," however, she is still the most ruthless terror to ever patrol the front-deck. I already grieve for my loss-to-be.
Great viewing guys, just love the interaction between you both..Cheers
Hey Mike thought I'd share this by saying I made a sheath for my axe I made it out of an old table mat which was a thick fabric I measured it to fit snug and for the axe to slide out when it wasn't buttoned and sewed two ✌ sides, I the sewed a button on and then made a slit in the fabric for the button had great fun doing it and the stitching hasn't failed me yet.
Keep up the amazing videos would love to try this just no one is willing to give up a bit of there woodland for me and my mate to make a cabin.
Hi guys! I know this video is a few months old, but I have just started watching the series and I thought the same thing about the egg shells. You should also put your tea bags and coffee grounds in the compost as well. Cheers!
Love ya dad , ACDC Great vid as always ...
Great video as always! Your Dad make me smile! Lynn XXX
You guys done a great job.
Can't wait to have land to do this on!
Another great video, keep up the good work.
You forgot your curtain. I dont trust any big company. Greed has killed this world. Love watching you guys. Hello from the states "georgia" . Be safe and waiting on the next video.
Tea bags and used coffee granules are good for compost, like egg shell's, fish guts are great lol
I hope that one day wranglerstar and his son are continuing what you guys are doing now
Hey guys Randy Johnson here from Eastern Kentucky and I think you guys are doing a great job with the pallets, and I build a lot things from pallets as well and I'm working on some pallet projects, keep up the great work.
I suggest marigolds for the vegetable plot as they repell pest insects. For the porch planters, sage plants would be really good. Deer won't eat them, they are a good tea for Dad ( especially the blossoms) and for general cooking. Both plants are hardy. Especially the sage as it thrives on neglect and live for years, just cut them back. Mine lived in Oklahoma, USA for 4 years.
Brilliant vid again chaps. I found your theory time intresting. I feel it's a bit of every thing. The radiation around us from tv,phons,wifi,electric cables/pylons, the food we eat and so on. All the tec we have thees days is'nt allways as good as they make out and its slowly effecting us in a very negative way.
So my family has a cabin on a lake in Canada, and I'm graduating this year. I've always wanted a cabin of my own, though, and never thought I'd be able to make one in the next year though (I'm graduating in a week). Because you guys started this series, it has inspired me to build a little cabin on my uncles property this coming year, and I will have my own little cabin. Never would have thought of something like this without you guys!
I love this series guys. Great clean old time humor along with an awesome project concept. Thanks so much for doing them. Cheers.
Always a good time watching you two have fun outside! keep up the good work
Hello, I always watch your videos and I actually like adding the flower’s idea in the cabin project, I think the flowers are going to be a good thing to add .. and hey about the dagger I am a collector from Lebanon middle east and I guess it’s Turkish from the Ottoman empire’s period it looks so Mediterranean especially from the serpent!!
Damn, I got to find some discarded pallet wood! It is interesting how many projects can completed with simple supplies.
The pallet cabin is looking so cosy, I would be tempted to stay there all the time!
That dagger really looks like it's straight out of assassins creed :)
Just noticed It's Graeme Pullen from Totally awesome fishing lol. Never noticed before until watching "How to rig a fishing Kayak" on the tv
This is gonna be a long one but hopefully somone will learn somthing.
I'm not a docter but in the first year of my physics degree so I know a bit about electromagnetic (EM) radiation (although I'm not an expert!).
I remember reading several studies that support the idea that mobile phones increase the risk of brain tumours. This is beacuse phones emit microwaves which are part of the EM spectrum. This includes radiowaves, microwaves, infrared, visiable light (the stuff we see) ultra violet (UV), X-rays and gamma rays. This is all actually the same stuff, with radio waves having a long wavelength and low frequency, all the way up to gamma rays with a short wavelength and high frequency. The energy of the waves (which relates to there 'damaging potential') is actually related to the frequency, so microwaves are pretty low down in terms of energy, infact they have less energy than the light we see with!
However, mobile phones may produce an 《intense》source, meaning they can produce lots of low energy waves close to our head. That's why the sun doesn't vaporise us because it produces high energy beams (of visable, UV, x-rays and gamma rays) but far away so they are 'spread out'.
As far as I'm aware, the cause of Alzheimer's is poorly understood, but it is associated with 'plaques' and 'tangles' in the brain. This makes it less likely to be accociated with phones but it is often associated with head injuries, hypertention or depression (although not enough studies have been done to rule this out).
All in all reducing the amout of time we spend on our phones certainty isn't a bad thing, even if it is to spend more time outside!
Love the channel and keep the theories coming!
Kev Pinder Again, I don't claim to be an expert on this subject but aluminium foil does refect microwave radiation to some extent, so mabey tin foil hats aren't as silly as they sound!
However, the mechanism in which this happens and the effectiveness of use with phones is a bit beyond me. Perhaps I'll get back to you after I have done my electromagnetics module next year. Happy bushcrafting!
jimbobbydave If depression could be a potential cause of Alzheimer's than phones could be related, cuz sitting around all day makes you depressed and people are constantly sitting around on their phones all day.
Well it's getting on for 30 years that mobile phones have been around and I'm yet to read any peer reviewed paper stating that mobile phones cause any type of trauma. My microwave when it runs cuts out the WiFi reception on my laptop though, so it's definitely not contained enough.
alminum gold copper iron and even pyrite all work well at guiding em waves ... search out wave guides and tubes and you will learn loads about how to manipulate these em waves .... at 3GHz you are essentially slow cooking your brain with EM waves ... alzeheimer's is known to be caused by heavy metals such as mercury and the like also aluminum does aid this as well ... also various food additives are known to be a leading contributor to the onset of alzheimer's ... most commonly found in breakfast cereals and other processed grain foods ... a good one to look at is Lucky Charms ... they actualy add paint thinner as a thickening agent ... atm the name slips my mind but you will recognise it once you realise they used the words instead of the initials under which it is sold as a paint thinner or cleaner ... ah yeah TSP ... Tri Sodium Phosphate ... yup it is actually IN your lucky charms ...
.
generally man made chemical's in food are going to kill us before nature does ... dont believe me ... look at the various drug ad's on tv and pay attention to the disclaimer's ... such as deperession medicine that may cause severe depression or suicidal thoughts or acts ... and this is to HELP you ... yeah right it is meant to keep BIg companies in business peddling their wares NOT make you better.
+0623kaboom what you said about trisodium phosphate really freaked me out, so I looked it up. I found this and thought it might interest you as well:
www.berkeleywellness.com/healthy-eating/food-safety/article/trisodium-phosphate-food-really-paint-thinner
Don't get me wrong, I agree with 90% of what you said and mentioned it myself (commented above). The only other thing I disagreed with was about depression meds - those symptoms MOSTLY only happen to teenagers (already screwed up hormones) & the elderly (usually a combination of meds/weakened systems)...or average people taking a drug/medication their prescriber isn't aware of. Depression meds are the only thing that's ever helped with my "issues" - as long as they're taken correctly. Chemistry can be good, when it's absolutely necessary AND used moderately. However as a culture we seem to want to play fast and loose with the laws of chemistry...such as trisodium phosphate, as you've mentioned. It's all these overdone chemicals (hormones, pesticides, etc) going on in our diet that's killing us.
What you said about man-made chemicals killing us before nature does was dead-on. If you look at any (extinct) species, ultimately their demise is directly related to getting too greedy and lazy (failure to do their part) in their environment: they kill off their main food source, or overpopulate (and therefore spread ever-evolving disease through species), crap in their water, whatever. As humans, we too are greedy, overpopulated, diseased creatures who crap in our water. Unless there are some drastic changes (and maybe a few tragic as well) then as a species we are not long for this world.
Whew! Two enormous posts on one page. I'm cutting myself off for the day. Sorry about the lengthy chat.
yay another Picket fence
Thanks for putting them eggshells in for compost.
Awesome as always
