Raf seems like a solid collaborator. Not easy to find workers who are invested in the problem solving, working hard, and have so many skills to bring to the table. I hope as your business grows you have a long and fruitful partnership!

Monsieur!! With these 3 videos in a week, you're really spoiling us!

This video has really helped me today. I've had a shit day, I had to phone an ambulance for my mother, she's having to stay in hospital overnight due to breathing difficulties. I'm also a full time carer for my disabled girl and I've just had an absolutely manic day. I haven't stopped since early this morning and I finally got to sit down around 2200 and I popped this video on and it just took my mind off everything for half an hour. Thank you.

I envy the energy the pair of you have. But then I did sixty years ago. Now at 88 I just sit back and enjoy watching you with your amazing enthusiasm, energy and knowledge. Another very interesting video. I'm eagerly awaiting the next one. Mounting pressure. Sorry about that.;-)

Kris, a suggestion. It looks like the gauge in question is a liquid filled gauge and sometimes they build up a pressure inside and do not indicate the correct pressure. Pop the edge of the rubber plug and equalize the pressure to the surrounding pressure. I think you will see/hear air hiss out or get a little squire of light oil. I had the same problem earlier this year and thought the gauge was bad but read correctly after that little adjustment.

Current and future clients will know that they'll receive high quality work form you. The amount of detail and pride put into your endeavors is incredible. Continued success to you.

Rafo Sir, always good to see you back at the graft. I have a mate; much like Kris, he gets me doing all sorts of heavy, height and hard labour. But what a joy to be a part of. Great work Kris, a workshop of envy, products that are Rightoeus... and a great insight into the 'Way'. Gorw it, eat it... then make it. I love your work Sir's. Plus Dot and animal companions. Peace m.

This is a fantastic series I've learned so much...pity I haven't a stream on my few acres

I happy for you that you finally got to use your Land Rover the way you intended. 👍

It is SO NICE to see someone on KZfaq working responsibly with plastic outdoors! Thank you Kris, and thanks for another video.

Wow! Great opening with the Rover picking its way through the wilderness. Also what a high quality build and design on the water line and turbine house complete with stone patio and style appropriate door. CLASSY!Shame it’s out in the woods where it can’t get more admiration, lol. Can’t wait for the final turbine installation and sea trial.

Alright Kris loved the video, love the hydro series and the rest. I work as a control and instrumentation engineer, I'm not a metrologist or telling you what to do, but if you're running a business in hydro it won't cost you much and set your mind at ease if you spend the cash and get your pressure meters etc calibrated once a year. You can give that as part of a certificate of conformity to your customers as well which is a win win and will make you look more 'professional'. There's an open source book you may be interested in that includes measurement called lessons in industrial instrumentation. It gives a good overview of measurement of different parameters like pressure and pitfalls to avoid I've found it useful throughout my career and would suggest it's worth a flick through. As other comments have mentioned you can figure out static/head pressures quite easily but with joins and Venturis etc you can be off. That book gives some good rules of thumb, your intuition is already strong though which is good. Keep the vids coming mate!

Absolutely in awe of what you can do. The skills that you have and share here is highly appreciated . Hats of to Raf as well , not scared of hard work and helps where the problem solving is concerned. Keep the videos coming love what you do.

The hydro and solar content is especially interesting right now, as usual thanks for taking us along

Absolutely love how you cleaned up the micro plastics! 🙏🏽 Excellent channel

I’m always SO inspired whenever I finish watching one of your videos! I just bought my first home and your channel has given me much inspiration for fixing up the place and the land!

Thanks Kris for sharing your very interesting project. I’ve now watched (and subscribed), with growing interest several of your vlogs and observed your methodology and am very impressed by the practical way you evolve your knowledge base as you encounter issues. It’s clear that you’re open to tweaking your original plans where necessary to make them work more efficiently and that’s great to see. Well done and thanks again.

Jamaica 🇯🇲 here I am a stay at home grandma and l always watch your post but lost contact but now I found it again and have been go through the ones I missed out and I am appreciating your work all the more be bless and stay safe

Such a neat and clean great job. You always go above what is expected. It is amazing at what you accomplish. Glad your friend was able to help you again.

What a treat two videos on the same day! The new system for your client is shaping up to be an amazing system I bet they are well pleased.

You're energy is unbelievable! Love your work!

Rewatching all your videos it is such a joy to see your homestead grow, you can be so proud of yourself. Thanks for taking us on your journey. P.s good times for your solar this summer, and with these energy prices right on time!

Re: pipe joiners, a trick that I learned while working adjacent to the water department of the council was to remove the internal shoulder of the joiner using a lathe. Allows you to slide the whole joiner on to one of the pipes, get the ends lined up and then slide it back to be centred over the gap. Good for pipe wrestling in a ditch.

Hey Kris, awesome series. I can tell you take pride in your work and it shows in your craftsmanship. Thanks for uploading the video and sharing your knowledge.

Love that you take the time to explain any issues that arise. Real pleasure to watch

A lot of what one sees on YT is DIY efforts at a wide variety of skill levels. This is probably the best I've seen. VERY professional and thorough! The quality and attention to detail are amazing. Very well done, guys!

Great video Kris. Love watching your mind work and solving problems as you go along. Nothing better than watching a defender in the environment it's was designed for too... Love it mate! Thanks for the double vid!

Another superb video Kris and looking forward to the day of generating power for the first time for your client! Your troubles with your vehicles must have been very trying but good to see we’re able to sort it in the end. Love following your progress - well done to you and Dot.

Tidy, love your videos, I’m a maintenance fitter in a mill and we have to be very multi skilled we do machine repairs, fitting, welding and fabrication, pipe fitting on steam, water and other liquids etc just whatever needs doing so I find it all very relevant. Built a great life and looks like your going to have an excellent business model 👍🏻👍🏻

Such a nice tidy quality job. The two of you worked well together. Great vid

Well done Kris I have really been looking forward to seeing when this project is completed and there's just a ways to go! Looking forward to seeing your next video.

Hello Kris and Dot 👋 long time subscriber (the lower workshop build) but not 1 for comments normally. Just wanted to say I love what ur doing, keep going bro, your vids are very relaxing for me and I look forward to them 😀 geese will be geese and Welsh weather will be 🙈 thank you once again x

swearing my arse off here, i frikking love this chan, so nice ! so happy this legend delivers quality every 2 weeks!

THREE videos from Kris in a week - what a TREAT. Good on ya mate, you're role model material.

Greatest show on KZfaq! Your skills are just amazing, Kris!

Always super excited to see more footage of this build, Kris! Can't wait to see the turbine you build cranking out power!

Raff reminds me of a younger Pete Postlethwaite. Great engineering as always. Lovely to see.

Watching your videos for years now , I want to move to Whales !!

The build quality of your stuff is just through the roof. The hut and the door look great!

I have loved watching these videos! You are very talented and your craftsmanship is fantastic. This is among the finest content on KZfaq! Thank you.

@Kris Harbour Natural Building - Hello, I just found your channel and watched all 4 four parts of the 6 kW hydro job. At least, I guess that is all the parts available for now. Marvelous workmanship and attention to detail! I will have to watch your back catalog soon. :)

Brilliant ! love to see your projects come together .

Good to see her up and running buddy! I gotta catch up on your videos. Nice Friday evening sorted

So many amazing vids in such a short time! It’s like Christmas.

I loved the opening shot, your channel definitely has a new star.

Hey Kris, really happy for u that your Land Rover worked out, nice truck & u deserve it for all you hard work & great troubleshooting

It is so enjoyable to watch such positive work Kris.

It's inspiring to see the collaboration between you and Raf in the installation of the Coanda Screen Intake for the North Wales 1.5kw Hydroelectric System. Raf seems like a dedicated and skilled collaborator, who is invested in problem-solving and working hard to get the job done. It's not always easy to find someone with such a range of skills, so it's great to see that you have found a solid partner for your growing business. I hope that your partnership continues to be fruitful and that you both can continue to innovate and solve problems together as you expand your hydroelectric system. This video is a testament to the power of collaboration and hard work in achieving success.

It is a heck of a lot easier to install in the summer during the drought than in the spring cold, rainy season. Keep up the GREAT videos - Pleasant Shade, TN

Good to see the Land Rover in its natural habitat, doing the work it was designed for (as opposed to taking kids to school in Chelsea) ;-)

Can't wait to see it finished, think your ingenuity and skill set is as Americans say awesome. When finished bet the person you are doing it for is going to love the free energy.

Love the videos Kris! Thanks for posting them as it’s fun following your projects.

Have seen the Korean hand plough or ho-mi that would be the perfect hand tool for the final pipe adjustments, I have a medium sized one for gardening and levers up paving slabs and rocks. Everything is looking great, I love the shed you are going to have a very happy customer

Thanks for the video. It was absolutely inspiring. You didn't save on work, enthusiasm and material. from your skills you seem to be a carpenter, electrician and metalworker. You can do what's fun. thank you, keep it up. Greetings from Germany, Frankfurt am Main

I’m really enjoying all the videos that you post the last couple of days keep up the good work

What an inspiration, all that hard work coming together for the final product. Great job gents.

Thanks as always for sharing! Awesome looking setup coming together

Good to see your Rover roving off tracks and you back at hydro works I love so much that stuff

I don't know if Raf is just your work buddy, but it looks like he's your friend. It's so great to work with friends.

This was a nice treat getting a double episode! Looking forward to your next upload! 👍👍👍

Loved the series!! Outstanding job!! Looking into doing the same for my off grid home. Job well done 👍🏼

You might have already addressed this but Tool station sell cheap black mushroom vent/cowls for the top of the stand pipe. This would stop the overhead trees dropping debris like leaves or twigs entering the plumbing and making their way to the turbine….

Very interesting. Looking forward to more videos re your hydro water system.

Wishing you every success with new business! V enjoyable to watch I appreciate you taking the time to film edit and share with us.

A piece of art this pump house system!

I'm pretty sure your friend Raf could do a spot on impression of Clive Owen. The man's got the exact same voice.

Awesome video series! Really neat to see this all come together. Very nice job.

We fit pipe from one point to another, rarely meeting in the middle without a special union or a 90º. It's way easier. If we have a plastic pipe that needs to be bent slightly or even a 90º we have electric hot blankets for plastic, hydraulic benders for steel that size. The gradual bends you're using are nice, along with using those large boulders for anchoring, sweeeet. I really like your intake device. Super nice job guys.

Congratulations! Top notch work quality from start to finish.

Absolutely love your work ! You're an inspiration Sir's! 👏🙌🙏👍

Thanks kris that was an awesome video. You are quite the craftsman. Hats off to you. Brilliant job.

Wowsers! 3 video's in a week, you are spoiling us :)

You can do things the right way or you can do it over and over again until you do things the right way. Chris is pretty good about only having to do things once and I love it!

Thank you for the videos. I find them all quite interesting i almost always learn something

Raf reminds me of my grand dad. Always had that cigarette dangling. It was part of his face.

Those brackets are fantastic. Great idea to just use the boulders you've got rather than stuffing around with concrete. Much much neater too!

You guys work well together. Keep it up guys

Them post rammers I remember my mate lifting it to high he broke his nose and fractured both eye sockets I've not to this day found anything funnier 🤦🤣great vid boss as always

this is a great series, thanks for spending the time to make and share, it makes me want one

Your a young chap, but I love your diligence, to do the best job possible, its a trait many of the younger people have lost. a saying I have always believed in is "If you are going to do a job, Do it to the best of your ability, or dont bother" Your work is like belt and braces. designed to last as long as possible, and thats a rare thing these days. great example of a work ethic. well done sir.

Love wales…not the shitty Newport but remote..Used to drive up from Midlands every Friday.

Thanks for posting and sharing. Cheers to you both.

You guys do some really great work excellent job well done. If I needed this done I'd hire you guys in a second.

You are lucky to have Rafa. He's on the same beam.

May the Lord bless you with work, you are doing a great service to humanity and the environment and the mental health of all those who follow suit. Amen!

Great team, those two guys are sharp.

I really appreciate that you cut palastic pipe so that you catch the microplastic sawdust. Most of workers never take care of it properly.

That installation is a true thing of beauty. Just wow.

2 video in one day lucky me.

I really like that you catched the plastic dust with a tarp!

It's kind of wonderful work you have. Nature is surrounding you. Beautiful places, flowing water. Wonderful, isn't it?

Hi Kris i'm a big fan of your work and enjoy all your videos. I just came to think while watching you should create an elevated wooden pathway above the water pipe that way the pipe is protected from uv and you will have a nice and practical scenery

Great video. Glad that pressure reading came out okay. I was also worried.

I like that Raph(?) guy. Good vibes.

If theirs anything I find frustrating as a plumber is how pressure gauges are such crap. I love your videos Kris and admire your skills and quality very much.

What you call an old van, i would kill to have here in the US. It’s everything a good, reliable truck should be. In other news. I love your videos! Keep up the amazing work!🎉

As always Kris a most excellent video, you did exactly what I would have done and checked the gauge against a know system. Looking forward to seeing what the actual pressure is once you have a better more accurate and calibrated gauge and then really looking forward in seeing how you go about building the turbine. I would wait until you have at least 3 - 4 paid for installations under your belt and see what other improvement you come up with, before you rebuild your turbine enclosure and turbine on your own property. I have to ask is the top of the vent pipe covered so the leaves debris and bird poop cant hey into the system? I also assume its at a level down from the source where it will never overflow?

Ratchet straps are good for pulling big pipe into locations and joint. Dynabolts it water may not last the distance, stainless steel is an option but either could also bust the rock. Chem-Set's make great alternate.

Well done lads great team work ...

... Now its clear with your new hairstyle: it manifests the tailwind style the way you think, plan and work --- keep it up.
