Colin you should put your model of the garage behind the window embedded into the rock and have mini colin building it. So a mini model of you building the garage in the wall behind the window in the garage. Maybe you could even box the window in and have it temperature controlled so u dont have to deal with condensation. That way when people go into the garage they can look thru the window and get a feeling of how much work you put into all of this

Before you do anything to the rock face, I would take a 3D colour scan of the surface. If things don’t work out, you might still be able to make a 3D replica of the surface at some point in the future and just attach that to the wall of the cavern. Not the same as the actual thing, but better than nothing if things don’t work out.

I was a scenic artist in Hollywood for 20 years. I could absolutely recreate that exact rock wall with plaster so well that you could not tell the difference between mine and God's. That being said, seal it off and recreate the rock wall in the sealed area, thus producing the exact same effect without ANY of the downsides. Give it a noodle Colin.

I think the best way to deal with the visible surface bit is to use model glue first, spray it allllllllll over it, do a thin layer of resin second, then a third layer, and so on, remove excess to have a flat face, and finally smooth and make see-through. I think this is your best bet because each layer has the problem of heat and bubbles, but in a thin layer and with you going over it with a heat gun, it should be clear and smooth at the end. If you also did too much resin all at once, the heat will warp it and make it wavey even if you did it against a surface. The glue at the start idea is from seeing videos from miniature model builders that use it on real dirt, rocks, sand, and grass. They spray the glue on and let it absorb into the dirt which makes it solid. I figured you'd want this since you don't want to remove all the dirt from the surface before doing resin. When you do many layers while being careful to not leave bubbles, you will get a bumpy surface which you can then smooth into a flat surface. This prevents the warping/wavey problem. You should absolutely test this on another area that you don't care about, maybe a wall you plan to remove just so you can make sure it gives the result you want before messing up the real wall.

Architect here, very simple. You’re going to rout a channel into the rock which you can embed a gasketed brake metal edge so you won’t get any residual moisture coming from above, below, and through the sides of the assembly. Next, you are going to drill vertically from above 3” cores every 24” o.c. from above, line them with perf pipe, and connect to a continuous pipe below the brake metal gasket seal. This will take and moisture escaping through the rock and intercept before it hits the rock face. Next, you’ll cover the entire rock face within the gasketed area with an elastomeric concrete/masonry sealer this will keep and residual moisture from escaping through the rock face. Last, you will put a removable tray in the steel wall below the window where you can a dessicant filter, this will absorb any moisture that enters the space Last but not least, for comedic effect, you can add windshield wipers to the exterior of the window

We are talking a minimal amount of humidity. There is weep piping behind, sealed gaskets all around, and a fluid applied vapor barrier on the rock itself. We are literally talking about mitigating what’s in the air cavity and allowing it to breathe with the internal space of the garage.

Have some moisture related experience and after two beers I'm the expert :) . @julianarmeni6497 comment here is spot on also fellow @JamesRWard-gq4nq is sort of correct. Solution first: Use camera and frame TV to show rock behind. Reasoning: Temp difference and moisture content. Think of it as "sauna experiment", summer will not be the problem. Winter in other hand is different matter. You will have internal or external condensation on window anyhow because of delta-Temp and moisture content. Rain and cold will condensate moisture. You can elliminate internal condensation by internal ventilation if temp is 20-24C, moisture up to 60% and airflow 50% in hour. External in other hand you cant control = winter condensation guaranteed if outside temp is 2C and moisture 98% (to avoid that you will need to heat up limestone wall). What I can also tell you that limestone will "sweat" in winter and over time it will get ugly (dark brown iron drips). So, my second solution is to have massive 3-layer class window that you can open and clean if needed. Preferred solution is to shut it tight, drop wide angle replaceable camera in and have frame TV to share nice rock wall ... no huge d-Temp and minimum condensation only. Price vise probably the same or cheaper. Experience: live in north where winter temp -20C is norm. Autumn and spring rainy seasons bring lots of moisture and condensation... with shitty ventilation windows are always moist. Limestone here is building material and sauna hose drying will take 3 days.

Hi Colin, I have a suggestion that could be something of interest. Have you considered using EGLAS? It’s a type of glass that can be electrically heated thanks to a metal oxide coating. When electricity is applied, it emits infrared heat, transforming the glass into a radiant heating source. This technology prevents condensation on the glass surfaces and also heats the room. I don't know how expensive it is, but maybe something worth looking into.

Maybe spray the wall with a clear sealant to help keep the moisture from coming out of it so much. My first thought is polyurethane floor polish for vinyl floors ("Mop and Glo" here in the states) in an airless sprayer. Second thought is something like Thompsons Water Seal, not sure if the product is sold under the same name there or not. It's just a sealer used on outdoor wood decks and furniture, masonry sometimes too. Spray that wall down, either for a temporary humidity solution or possibly there's a product that could be a permanent solution too.

Colin, on the venting subject, I have a combination of video idea and bunker idea: take an evaporative cooler, and pipe it up to an air-to-air heat exchanger, such that cold but damp air gets thrown through the exchanger to the outside, while exterior air gets brought in at the same time that it's getting cooled down. This wouldn't work in the Gobi, but as long as you get enough heat vs humidity it should be a fairly cheap way to provide at least _cooling_ during the hottest months. And also, video idea!

Secondly if your going to use a sump pump, you will need a sump with enough capacity always filled that way your pump can be primed and fill the hose/piping with enough liquid that the pump doesn't run dry and the liquid runs back down into the sump. Alternatively you could look at a lift pump in stead that way you wont have to worry about priming the unit.

Here's a fairly simple idea that might solve the window / rock face moisture issues - Seal that area off and install a huge window as planned but have the ventilation system go from the interior space into that small area between the window and rock face first, and then vent outside from there. That way the warm dry air from inside that you're already venting out will help dry out that space. You could maybe even install some type of one way air valve so the moist air from the damp area can never backflow into the interior space.

To preserve that wall ‘as is’, spray it with a resin mix with a longer setting time to let it soak in, then once that is set, wipe it down and spray it again…. When that second coat is set, shutter in front of the wall, then pour in massive amounts of resin.. faster setting this time, .. and when thats fully set, de-shutter, sand down to ever finer, to clean up the resin.. resulting in a clear wall, showing the rocky wall in its full glory.

Suggestion for keeping the exposed rock wall dry. Use a positive pressure ventilation system to keep the airflow moving, with vents at the top for the moist air to be expelled through. The air being pushed into the space by the fan should be dry, but won’t need to be bone dry. The continuous air movement is what dries the area, (very loosely) like washing on the clothesline on a windy day.

Hi Colin, I have a suggestion for you. You can apply a thin and transparent layer of coating or resin on the rock face to prevent moisture from leaking through and condensing on the window. Another option is to build up the resin in small layers and later polish it smooth and flat so that it can serve as the window itself. This will make it easier to get rid of air bubbles. A third, but more challenging option, is to dig around the rock face you want to look at and seal it up with concrete and sheet metal from the other side. This way, your rock face will dry and you won't even need to place a window. However, there is a risk of collapse while digging around it.

So for example, a float that pushes on a switch through a stick, rather than a float that lifts a stick at the same level (kinda like the toilet water valve float). Idea is that all electric, all mechanical means of water detection eventually fail. From the get-go, go with the nuclear method. What the sewer mains use. Which is a system that keeps all the important (and easily damaged or corroded) components off the part where it would first flood. Also, if you make a sump, make sure to put a pump in the loop that's always ready to work. Better to have and not need, than need and realize you're flooded by the time you're there. You might not be at the house that week. A high quality pump (with the same out of the water concept) should be involved. So a self priming pump at that. If the area where you're at is prone to flooding AND electric power loss, you may want to consider an efficient battery powered pump. Always consider that as an optional secondary just in case regardless. Best to have something slow rather than nothing at all. jm2c.

As a FedEx UK employee there should be no problem in shipping your rocks. As long as they're packed in the container and a box with adequate packaging you shouldn't have a problem. As I don't deal with international shipments I can't speak on this. Hope to see your rocks flying through the warehouse at some point in the near future 🤞

It isn't a packing issue it's a microbe issue. Soil contains billions of microorganisms existing in a delicate balance specific to it's location and you don't want to introduce non-native soil that can change that balance. Even though it isn't going to be dumped in people's yards (probably) it would have to go through a sterilization and certification process to make sure there are no pathogens that could negatively impact local plant and animal life.

@@euskryhtbnfvse4i7ehs4hnvf Interesting...it might depend on where it was going, I'm really only up on US regulations. Just a rock all by itself would be okay, if it has been completely cleaned of soil so a rock in resin would be fine. Soil in resin I think would still require permits and sterilization at a US customs facility at which point it is going to cost far more than anyone is willing to pay for it.

With the rock face. Step 1. Create a temporary housing Step 2. Fill with a mold (silicon) Step 3. Remove from wall now you have a mold. Step 4. Fill mold with resin try and get bubbles out away from the wall in the mold. Step 5. Slot resin mold created into pre-built housing. Step 6. Frame with silicon/caulk and frame with nice wooden framing. This way you have a perfect mold that will slot into the wall, you'll have the entire wall sealed and should hopefully prevent any mildew. Hope this helps.

Is the rock face to loose/unstable, would removing the mold disturb the rock face and then the resin cast wouldn't fit as snug as it needs to??
@stevebridges2807
@stevebridges2807 13 күн бұрын
Possibly, the other way around that would be to infill the concrete first, leaving a suitable "port hole" which could be then filled with resin using a frame work to seal said "port hole" 🤔 But again, with that, you would need to consider the structural integrity above the resin and ensure that will be solid without too much reliance on the resin. The other thing to consider, is any shift in either substance (if not joined properly) could cause major issues down the line

The problem of it being a massive epoxy pour remains, it'll be almost impossible to control the heat and stop it cracking. Assuming you've somehow managed not to have it destroy itself in curing you've still got to manoeuvre a massive, heavy slab of relatively brittle material into a place where it'll only fit in a specific orientation which likely includes irregular shapes that can't simply slide in.

Don't forget if you light it, you'll need access to replace the lighting. Which means there will be at least an access port connecting the space to the room. Which can be a point of vapor between the two.

Suggestion for your stone wall: Completely seal off the interior (where your car is) from the exterior (where the stone wall is). Then make two separate ventilation systems: 1 for the interior going up and towards the outside, and 1 for the exterior going up and towards the outside, too, but they don't mix. This way moisture won't get from the stone wall to the interior and also there won't be condensation on the glass window.

Agreed, just a very low flow, could even be triggered with a humidity sensor like the ones in your shower. And of course make the glass removable with nice industrial looking glazing beads on the inside and a good rubber gasket around should isolate it properly and give you access to the LEDs and exterior ventilation system on the rare occasions you need it.

You know, if you keep having trouble with rust on the main steel structure, you could always chuck in a few galvanic/sacrificial anodes. They will rust away and keep the steel rust-free mostly. Only problem is that you have to replace them every now and then.
