Or add it to the description of the video
I love how y’all treat your neighbors. It’s one of the reasons I like this channel so much, because they are so friendly to everyone they have worked with.
You couldmake gutters around the roof and guide the rainwater to a desired place, maybe the creek or some garden area to use for watering.
If heavy rain keeps dripping down the roof there could eventually be some unwanted erosion.
Same thoughts! Maybe one or two big tank(1000l) for water from the water from roof. In summer it could be very useful in case of drought where are only strong but small thunders with rain. That fast water has no chance to suck in to the ground and will only flow away... this could rly helps
I wouldn't collect water of metal roofing. It's heavy metal central.
@@KcarlMarXs not for drinking water - but nothing wrong in using it for the garden
Yes was thinking the same, just need one gutter at the bottom edge since its at a drop
@@KcarlMarXs collecting water from metal roof is done in a lot of countries. You just need the right metal/paint on it
Nice monday afternoon drop...
Tuesday is my area
@@MrRamkulov ?
as an architect I love to see all those DIY construction episodes. Dave’s a good designer.
You REALLY need to make a biochar oven to burn the brambles and young mimosas. Open burning releases the carbon into the atmosphere, whereas biochar captures it and is a very valuable soil additive.
I was thinking too that all the wood burning goes against the eco message of this channel. Similarly - “Burning brambles so they don’t catch fire” my brain needs to make a few leaps to make sense of this 😅
@@dsl28 controlled burns are a real tool used to maintain and protect ecosystems. A series of small burns over time prevents a large fire in the future.
@@loganhonors4154 @Logan Honors I'm not saying that they shouldn't burn that stuff--THEY SHOULDN'T BE BURING IT IN AN OPEN PILE. Do you know what biochar is? They can very simply make an anaerobic burn chamber that will not burn the brambles down to ash but instead make a kind of carbon/charcoal out of it. This very porous carbon will hold carbon, will sequester the carbon in the soil, the tiny pours allow the solid to hold more water and create habitat for healthy solid life. It's a win for them, a win for the soil, a win for their neighbors, a win for every living being on the planet. Whereas doing open controlled burns like the did here only has one advantage--reducing forest fire risk. And while that is very very important, making biochar instead will also give that advantage, along with countless others.
@@chrischart2386 Those farmers should also be making BIOCHAR. And in fact the number of US farmers who are making biochar is growing every day because it's one of the most promising tools we have to avoid human-caused extinction on earth.
@@dsl28 Bramble is actually a huge fire risk. While the outside of a bramble bush is green and lush, the inside is actually quite dry and becomes a big fire risk in the Portuguese summers. While making biochar or composting them is obviously the ideal way, sometimes it's a bit time intensive compared to burning them.
17:47 these intros for new people is awesome! short, simple, and sweet + it reminds me of introducing new characters into a movie or tv show
Yes, really nice way of introducing new faces
I think it would be nice to paint each container with a different colour love what your all doing be happy be safe
was thinking the same thing, might also help prevent more rust...
Yeah, it would look a lot better !
I like the existing look of the container and the story it tells. Although colours would look good too!
Nice to see Dave getting more involved in hands on projects again 😊
I agree
Adrian's words are a motto to live by, I love it:
"Are you scared?"
"No! We're having fun :D"
When you burn stuff, you should make it into biochar! It's slightly more work, but not a ton - you basically just dig a pit, put stuff in and set it on fire, and then put out the fire at the right point to get biochar instead of ash. You can find instructions on youtube if you search 'Biochar pit method' or the like.
I thougt the same. There was good stuff for biocharcoal.
They could build a pit with wall for it and make video about it)
Everyone boost this comment ⬆️
@@DrewAlvedro how can we?
BIOCHAR!!!! please anyone reading this who is not familiar with the term, find out--it's one of our best tools to survive the future.
1-Collect rainwater- 2- use the roof for more solar nice job ❤
They have better water sources. Metal roof can contain heavy metals
@@KcarlMarXs true they can use it for drip irrigation for plants..
Maybe one or two big tank(1000l) for water from the roof. In summer it could be very useful in case of drought where there are only strong but small thunders with heavy rain. That fast water has no chance to suck in to the ground and will only flow away... this could rly helps
I think it would be good to add a gutter to collect rain water for the dry summers and dont have that much water coming down at the edge
I always loved Julie energies, she brouht joy and always happy
she is awesome
Christmas carols in May! Loved Andy Ellison’s version of Once in Royal David’s City playing while clearing around the container. (Thanks, Shazam)
A trick that I learned for clearing root balls on small to medium sized trees: Cut the tree off at 5ft/1.5m, then use the leverage of the extended trunk to pull the tree over. You can use a chain fall to pull the trunk over, and the mechanical advantage of a used car tire or large wood block at the fulcrum (the root ball) to pull the root ball upwards. This works especially well when you have trees nearby, because you can use the base of an adjoining tree as the anchor for your chain fall.
I would be interested to see if this technique works on mimosa's as well as it does my local trees such as cedar and juniper.
Congratulations on 500k, I've watched the struggle with those mimosa trees with a strong twinge of sympathy!
Editing and flow of these videos are improving immensely. Great job, keep it up!
He banjo music that never ends??
The white ashes left from burning is excellent fertilizer, you should collect and use those for vegetable growing and other gardening stuff
Collecting rainwater off the roof might be interesting
For what? Heavy metals off metal roofing
@@KcarlMarXs watering the plants
Neat. Next container can be a mirror image, with roof connected in the middle!
They will need to increase the length of beams. But the idea is nice. I have seen it on my outskirts - someone built a hangar from 3 stacked in column containers with a roof. Not sure if it was cheaper than building right out steel beams and metal sheets)
I don’t know if they exist, but if there is a CZcams awards your channel should win them all! David’s fabrication skills are most impressive.
your cinematography in the welding portions is excellent. you keep yourself well organized and it’s so unnecessarily satisfying!
You can add more solar panels on that roof and gutters for rain water harvesting, good job.
What about a rain gutter attached to the roof, and gathering rainwater for some future uses? 🤗
That "Cutting Metal" part is incredibly well edited, thanks for the masterpiece!
Good work. My only concern would be in a high wind how the roof will behave. It’s like a big wing.
Underneath the roofing sheets are not obstructed, which allows wind to flow from top and bottom, so the lift created is very small and that’s bolted down real good!.
Im pretty sure they made sure it didnt act like that before building.
Yeah that could be dangerous my idea was for a raised platform maybe they could make support posts
i don't usually comment but as a long time viewer i must say the quality of the videos increased a lot and this one was really good. keep up the good work
Massive congratulations on hitting 500k subscribers, so deserved! -G&R 😊
507k now. over 1% more in matter of hours. awesome!
I agree with others: rain gutters and rain catchment for garden use
Great to hear Dave’s voice in the intro (I can understand him clearly) and have him participating in this epic recycling adventure.
Maybe use some rope at the cornes to anker down the roof. If it gets windy the roof could act like a sail and it could rip away
Let my give an idea : Use the new roof to collect rain water. Is good to store water for the coming summer and keep the water to dig a trench when fall into the soil. Great job. Cheers
Super impressive to see the type of large scale metalworking projects you all are working on! Keep it up, Project Kamp!
Seeing COUSIN do all this cool homesteading is awesome.
Nice job! And that roof is strong enough if you needed to add more solar panels for the Kamp.
Another video, another happy day ❤️
I love this so much when I come back from school and notice a new video is online it always makes me happy these video's are so calming
Project Kamp always fun and unique!!!!!... super kool ideas and results. !!
Your videos are insanely entertaining. The editing is on point! 👍
Your videos got so much more quality then last season! I love it so much and can`t for next monday! 🙂it`s good to see your community grow and how everybody works together
Dave has much confidence in measuring, cutting and drilling! That is a talent, very useful.
Wasn't expecting to hear "once in Royal david City" banjo version none the less 👍
The musician is Andy Ellison if you want to hear more like this.
Such courage jumping off the roof! And you stuck the landing. Well done sir!
Nice platform for some pv panels 😊 and some watercatching construction❤ love your videos. I would like to live and do with you guys.
I really appreciate the weekly videos
Happy monday, Happy Kamp dayy:)
Groovy sounds. I'm watching while I do the dishes which makes me feel 10x productive
Great video guys, the editing and videography is really fantastic. One small piece of feedback I would have is to consider lowering the volume of the music a little.
Maybe building even more roofs is a long term efficient idea:
- Protecting from the warm and fire risky Summer
- More electricity capacity as installing new solar pannels in the roofs
- If not static roofs, temporary ones that can be used as greenhouse?
Amazing content, you give me so much joy!
You definitely need to collect water from the roof as it will contribute to erosion around the container.
Direct it to the creek or to a deposit, the more you need. Strong hug. A lot of peace.
As a Dane I always find it nice to see our big Brands exposed all over the world, he he Maersk is the biggest compagny here, also Velux was Danish. So nice that you give back to your neighbours, and to see you work so well together :) Vey nice roof !! I wish for RAIN soon and NO FIRES.
all those mimosa trees could be cut for logs to make dugout cabins for yourselves. dugout cabins would stay cooler in the summer without need for a/c
really missed dave last season so glad he's back in full force. Also...these comments sections just kill me...and I know everyone says it but WOW the quality of video!
Very good! the roof turned out great 🤩Why don't you make a gutter system to concentrate the water that falls from the roof into a single pipe? instead of dripping all over the roof? That way you can even save that rainwater and use it in a water tank, in the showers, in a toilet flush or in the garden... I think it would be a useful idea. Here in Brazil we store this water in cisterns 🌱
❤ Jaime is really cool. More with/about him please!❤
Congrats on 500k subs everyone!!!!!! So excited for this season! Videos are really hitting their stride now!🎉
👏👍👌 Great job on building the big roof on the shipping container! But what I really love about your videos is how you and your team have become a true community throughout the series. It's inspiring to see how well you work together and support each other. Keep up the amazing work!
I don't have anything to say im just here for the algorithm. Keep up the good work
Great video, welding, small-scale farming, build a garden shed, metal fabrication,workshop, wood chipper,container building, off grid, self-sufficient, portugal, van life, clearing invasive species, algorithm, earth, Yoga
the cinematography is next level this szn laddies
I like Jaime! Hope you can stay more and see you contribute on more projects.
these videos have so much worth dude its insane how i watch up to you
it simply makes our hearts lough of joy seeing you guys doing this ^^
much love from cologne
One thing you should do is build a raised platform attached to the container to keep your storage off the ground where it’s damp even though you flattened the ground there’s still a chance for water to flow underneath the container a little I understand that you might not see this and that won’t break my heart so don’t worry if you see this too late
Great video, base camp os really starting to take shape.
I love the coordination, the energy that you guys put to this project..❤
‘Once in royal David’s city 🎼’ (6 mins in) 😂
Truly love watching your vids - amazing
04:41 Aaahhhh time for some nice seasonal music: "Once in Royal Davids city, stood a lowly cattle shed..." 🌲🌲
Great job, gang! Loved the boss jumping off the roof and swinging from the beams. Don't need a gym! Lol
Hope you don't have strong winds in the area. You just made a giant wing above this container.
He won't fly away but this metal sheets will. I have seen it many times. No wind -no problem but if you do, you need to prevent wind to blow belowe metal sheets.
Or a easy fix put some strong bolts on all 4 ends of the roof. Regular roof metal screws do not hold well in the storm. I know that for shure.
Watch ur back 🧎🧎use the legs while lifting.
I wait for Mondays to watch your videos.
Team work for a better lifestyle what a lovely community 👌👌
So happy to see a spanish guy over there with all of you🤗 Great job from Valencia!🫶🏻
Mondays are the best days of the week
your video editor is too good man really m enjoying all these music u put it in between , it is soothingggg
Have you thought of using the roof for rain water catchment. You could use that water for irrigation around the base camp.
I’d definitely try and find a way to capture rain water from that roof! And also perhaps it would be a perfect place for solar panels?
Perfect place for more power generation to aid future expansion, plenty of room for solar panels on there.
Love the videos guys
You have done a lot in three summers!! I really appreciate your community and the interesting projects you have. And I love the communal nature of your organization!!
I love this place. Nothing but peace and prosperity to you all!
Congrats for having a new roof for the tools.❤
Love the little intro to Jaime :)
I know there is plenty of water on the property, but thats a nice roof for catching some rain water!
Good roof for a rain water collection system
man but the engineering on some of these projects is so impressive !
who came up with the construction plan and steps to this container roof?
so calculated and impressive in my opinion!
Just for aesthetics, I would like to see the rust ground off and the storage container painted a nice camo green to blend in with the side surroundings 😉
This jazzy funk music makes assembling a roof so much more fun to watch.
I work in the fabrication business and the only suggestion I could make after watching is if you're anticipating a lot of sanding work in the future, I would invest in an pnuematic orbital sander as it can go a long way when preparing metal for painting. Also, lubricating while countersinking makes the process much smoother.
I've already watched this video once before and you've put in your roof the roof on top of the container well. The nice thing about putting a roof on top of the container. You can also slant it and collect water off of it. You could also take another container if you'll watch ambition strikes on CZcams. They built a system on a container that will tilt. And no matter what happens you can make a lot of power and their system is really really nice. They run their whole house system on it welder's plasma tables. You name it air conditioning systems you name it they've got to get system
We have a metal roof on our house here in Tennessee USA, and painted it a light grey color. That light color helps a great deal with ambient heat.
Great build! I recommend installing rain gutters on the lower side of the roof to protect even better the surface below it. You could also collect that water, if needed.
13:09: now that's a mcgyver solution I didn't expect lol
It's so easy and exciting to imagine all the interesting uses this building can have over the years, and all the possibilities for it to grow alongside the community
Respect asparagus, very clean mechanically executed work. A storm is mitigated enough by the surrounding trees, shouldn't be a problem for the roof. Your team works well too and everyone seems to be having fun.
One of these machines and your camps ability to operate these machines it's worth a lot. These machines built the modern world.c
It's super strong, very well designed.
That "Ah valente" made my day
Don’t you remember just cleaning rust off everything that you thought would remain dry?
Also, just looking at the mimosas and eucalyptus. You may wish to consider its value in coppicing. Maybe keeping a few in strategic areas where you may want firewood.
I've discovered your channel this morning with the season 2 overall update, and honestly I love your style of filming, editing and everything, I am so impressed by the amount of work that you all put in this project, it's really fantastic, keep up that good work !
I love watching you all.
Such committed, thoughtful, and thorough restoration is an inspiration to see :)
