Hi, you just came up on my KZfaq feed, I’ve been checking out kinetic splitters. What are the details on yours. Thanks, liked and subscribed!

Gday John, just wanted to say we love your video's - we are trying to do something similar in Dromedary down south.

I’m impressed. Didn’t believe it would work.

Thanks John for meeting with Charlie and sharing his know how's with us. Hope to see another one of him with you.

Great video john. I prefer #27's for tomatoes also. Liked the way you cooked the toms down with salt to extract the juice. I might do my last batch that way in the next week.

Invented in Scotland!

Great job! I have always wanted a root cellar, but instead, I have an insulated room in my pole barn. Here in mid-Missouri, USA - the fall is too warm to store fruit and roots. The outdoor temps will range from 60 degrees F to 85 degrees F. So I installed a window air-conditioner and can now drop the room temp to 55 degrees F even on the hot days. Last year, I only needed the A/C for about a month until the outdoor temp cooled. If I wanted to speed $400 (which I don't) I could buy a "Cool- Bot" and the A/C could cool the room down to the 30's F.

Thank you so much. I live in Southwest Texas, our fruit trees are shorter than the ones shown in your video. Again, Thank you ! ❤

You are not DOWN UNDER. We don't live on a tilted, wobbling, spinning and rocketing wet rock with an ATMOSPHERE next to a VACUUM. See my related playlists, or not. Great video, I'll be building my own cold storage room with a false wall from the rest of my next half sunken cabin build.

Absolutely loved this video mate. Often thought about the same. Your video is probably the most honest and succinct video I have watched. I wonder whether it’s worth it in the Riverina NSW? Might be hard to get those temps down. Thankyou John.

Ever thought about having external thermostat and internal thermostat connected to extractor that would always direct from the coolest way towards room regardless of time of day or if it's cooler outside it would automatically draw into room and if the room gets warmer at any point of day it would extract warm air out or if ground is warming room it can draw inward automatically

It’s great that you can grow citrus outdoors. Here in the southern part of Germany I do not think that I will have such success, but I will definitely try. May the Lord bless and keep you.

Such a good job and useful space. I know you still want to make some improvements but it looks great already. Well done.😊

Excellent video John. I had been toying with the idea, but not knowing whether it was worth it has been keeping me from getting on with it. After hearing your advice I have decided that it is not for us. Thankyou, you saved me heaps of work.

Great idea than I s for sharing 😊

I have always wondered why Australia doesn’t have a root cellar culture.

I'm fortunate enough to have a root cellar underneath my 100 year old little cottage house, but I currently don't use it nor the room above it because the floor bearers are damaged and unstable. Your video has given me some great tips and advice to keep in mind for when I eventually get around to replacing the floor and getting the cellar to a state of usable. Especially regarding the ventilation vs what is being stored, as my cellar floor is currently just dirt.

Great work mate 👍

Did you end getting around to making the cage more easier to remove instead of being bolted down?

as a kid we ate all the stalk, now i'm told we have to skin it? right or wrong - please advise.

The soil in second tower looked more moist and softer than the first one.

I am a working hollyday visa, and i want to go to Tasmania

Thanks, That's a great solution.

This just popped up in my suggested feed. I've been doing home maintenance for years as a part-time job and haven't seen those paint pourers. The multi-tool you show I use all the time and for many purposes. An excellent tool for sure. Cheers!

What exactly was that noise at 1:46? It’s anything I’ve ever heard in my neck of the woods. 😮

great machines those!

Thank you for sharing this information, its very helpful 😊

I def took a bite of a leave a time or 2 and def ate the shoots out of them. I can say it did not kill me what it did to me idk. never had anything happen that made me stop js. I was taught when I picked pieces to toss the leaf underneath them.

A very knowledgeable guy Charlie, thank you for sharing John. Can you please ask Charlie if he buried a whole 44 gallon drum into the ground for the Avocado tree. I also see that he planted two Avocado tree into one hole. I would like to plant two Avocado trees into one hole, we are renting a house and I have two grafted Avocado tree's. The garden is not very big. I love Avocado's, but they have become very expensive to buy. 💚🌿🌱✅💚🌿🌱✅💚🌿🌱✅

Thanks team that was an awesome video. So much knowledge Charlie really appreciate you sharing.

Was he growing the 'walking stick' cabbage just for the chooks - or does he eat some of it himself ?

Thanks so much to you and your guest :) Wonderful tips.. Shame we couldnt quiet hear what you were saying :) 🤩

I also have the 3 ring gas burner I use it for pressure canning it works well thanks for the video

If you were my husband I would make you go over the fence and chop all those branches up and put in the organic bin. Why did you just throw all that over the fence?. Other than that I thoroughly enjoyed your video . I cringed every time you threw a branch over the fence for someone else to clean up.

Thanking you for the great tour John. I loved Charlie's parting comments. ❤

Excellent video John, lots of experience shared in this one.

I really enjoyed this one John. Well done.

Thanks, a wonderful video, very informative.

thankyou

Very good -- Thank the farmer for me- Ray Delbury Sussex County NJ USA

Fantastic episode! I love the wisdom he has to share.

Thanks John and thank you Charlie! That was the most interesting video I’ve seen lately. I always love listening to the old and wisen men.

It’s been to dry, John.

You’re amazing, I love your style. What area are you in, it looks dry.

What a gem !

This is such a great episode. what a very knowledgeable man. thx.

Wow! That's a lot of knowledge 👏👏

We have a 10 ton kinetic electric splitter and it works quite well on trees like Birch, Tamarac, Poplar, Spruce. The issues we are finding on some Birch and a lot of Spruce though is in fact the real Knotty logs, lots of those knots it has a tough time getting through, often needing anywhere from 2 - 8 tries to split it - which makes me worried it's going to kill the machine. I wonder if a larger Ton kinetic splitter (like 20 or 30 ton?) would have the same issues, or if it would work better, or would you really just need a hydraulic splitter?

That actually does a surprisingly good job on Aussie hardwood. I have redgum, greybox and ironbark here in central Vic and the best of it would be on par with worst of the wood that you were going through there I'd say. I always wanted to make a vertical kinetic splitter but gave up on the idea and bought a 2nd hand hydraulic.

2 years later and dozens of youtubers not posting the "Fruits" of their labors why? Disappointing results after hyping towers. Here we have one of the few that do and are at least honest about their disappointment. Potato towers don't work, you routinely get smaller yields because the plant actually needs vegetative growth to gain the energy to make the tubers. No vegetative growth, no Tubers. If you constantly bury it's growth all that energy it would put into tubers is now going into rebuilding it's vegetation instead. You stunt the plant. Determinate, indeterminate... matters not.
