Welcome to Tick Creek Ranch. This channel was created to show the daily ins and outs of life on a small ranch. We are a family of eight, our lifestyle has taken us from the deserts of Idaho to the wilds of Alaska and back to the lower 48. We followed our dreams and finally settled in the Ozark’s of Missouri. We have owned and operated our own businesses over the years, ranging from carpentry and excavation to commercial and residential landscape. The children and ourselves have developed a passion for learning new skills which include leather work, welding and fabricating, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, roofing, painting, equipment operation, timber sawing, blacksmithing, horseshoeing, flatwork and concrete, timber framing, cattle ranching, horse training, and many more. Please follow along on this journey as we build our new home and delve into the ways of regenerative ranching. So stick around and watch us create our dream using old world construction techniques and style reminiscent of an era gone by. Thank you and enjoy the journey.

May I inquire where (what state, not location specific ) this is? Sadly, I so need one of these badly where I live(FL) but no possible way due to sea level preventing. So decided to move as I can’t handle it anymore. Open to any safe state. Thank you! Oh! Excuse me, I forgot to say congratulations as your amazing! Wonderful construction!

I realize "TO EACH HIS OWN" but I would have treated the wood with at least roofing tar before I put the tar paper on and I would have put a silcone in the joints to prevent water from getting to the insulation and wood. Also, I would have put another wraping of tar paper over the insulation. Still all considered, You did a good job.

Common storm shelter style from the 1930s. If worried about tornadoes, you need a bunker. Anything less, the tornado can tear apart. Tornadoes have been known to peel asphalt right off a good condition road.

Great build, guys. I'm generally 100% metric when I do anything (that's one-hundred-and-eleventy percent in Imperial.... 😉) but I do love the penny nail system. It's deeply rooted in British history and even further back. The "d" symbol is used for penny (and was still used for British currency until 1971) because is was shorthand for "denarius", dating back to Roman times. But it goes back even further when you consider that the penny system *almost* runs in Base 12, which pushes it back as far as ancient Babylon. Also the reason we count time the way we do! Fascinating.

My favorite part of all of these videos is the $250,000-$500,000 of machinery and tools. Plus the lumber, gravel, sand, drainage cloth and tubing all done in a weekend! Since when does a guy whip out an electric planer like every dad has one? And to those getting ready to destroy me, obviously not done in a weekend. But the RVs, the mini excavator, the pickups, the fuel, the saw mill, the tools, the bobcat, your looking around my estimated price

I've seen where a tornado cut a deep path in the ground as it broke trees off like they were balsawood. I believe that I would've had my storm sellar below ground level ! That sellar is just like a dirt mound sticking up in the middle of a flat area witch could get plowed up by a big enough tornado ! Just wanted to tell you that. Hope if you have to use it it holds up.

Thankfully there is no history of powerful tornadoes around this area but, you never really know.

I'm currently digging out a root cellar by hand... going to do it as free as i can as lumbers expensive. but I live in a forest that could use some pruning. I really like your design though :D

Happy belated anniversary! We are building a new homestead. You get me. I keep telling my hubby that my biggest concern is the root/storm cellar and bunker.

I been watching videos of Russians and hippies doing the same thing. I'm impressed with how much (10x or 100x) more productive y'all are! Got a better result a lot faster. Good work.

Lots of work went into this. I would've used the structure as a form and installed some #4 rebar and poured concrete all around including the roof. it'll last a life time.

Hard to think that the ridged insulation won't rot over time. Even walls that are partially underground give me water/mold issues. Will be interesting to see a video after a few years of weather.

Typically wood doesn't hold up to F3 F4 F5 tornadoes either. Need Concrete storm shelter.

You can design pretty much any material to withstand a tornado, given the members and attachments are strong enough. I'm more concerned about the wetting/drying cycles of the walls and roof causing rot, and if those rafters were only toenailed in (it's not a strong connection for uplift).

@@jakebredthauer5100 Who gives a crap about code, things can be built 20 times stronger than code but in a way that doesn't meet it's criteria. Having said that this really lacks in strength and longevity due to the likelihood of rot.
