Is that little one a toy fox terrier ?

Very cool

Hi mate that's very good quick and easy, to make and use for a first timer many thanks 👍👏👏👏

I think you have more "silty clay" not "clayey silt". This absolutely needed cement to get that time out of it you want. But you're right, if you did add the lime/sand plaster to it, it would continue to last as long as the cement one as long as no flooding occurred. Great work! Wow! Lots of work!!!

Excellent cinematography, excelente design work , you’ve got my admiration.

To me, this is cinema. Beautiful work, huge congrats from Peru.

❤❤❤❤

Nice job

this is the video I was looking for. I did a poor job cutting slabs with a chainsaw and bought an electric plainer.

Great video. I had no idea the riser could be so problematic. I'll try a stainless steel pipe and hopefully it works. Thanks. Great upload!

Cool! I'm about to give up my big jewelry workshop as I'm moving to an apartment, gonna build me one of these to make small repairs while searching for a new workshop! Thanks for the inspiration!

OH MY GODDESS! That is so beautiful and also scary in an awesome way! Wow, you are so lucky to see this!

I love it🎉

In his element :-)

Awesome video. How long will this hay last your animals? How often do you have to do this?

I can smell this video (grandfather used to grow hay and cut with a scythe).

We recently lumbered a 36" maple, a 36" white ash, and a 32" pecan. After drying, we tried planing with a Rigid (Home Depot) 13" planer with 2 HSS knives kzfaq.infoUgkxIzvvTi3_Qc8JnVdYYRJCvuoDC4QjTzeL . This job was clearly too much for that machine. The pecan was particularly difficult, due to heavy mineral deposits, and a sharp pair of HSS knives would be consumed by a mere 3 boards. We were also having lots of problems from chip bruising, due to poor dust collection. The shavings came off like straw and jammed in the 4" hose.We bought the DW735 simply to be able to run carbide blades, which worked brilliantly for the pecan. However, we found it to be a much, MUCH nicer machine. It was far more rigid than the "Rigid" planer, and far more accurate as well. But what I liked most about it was the dust feed. This machine has its own blower, which shreds the "straw" like shavings as they come off the cutting head and helps boost the shavings into the dust collection system. No more clogs! It's also nicely sealed so that the internals stay quite clean. This is just a well tempered machine that's a delight to use. It literally cut the labor in half. Just another example of getting what you pay for.

Superb job. Thx.

Hi gentleman use me mixture some soil some lime and some water etc etc right ya wrong please sir please gentleman tell me

Can you use one of these to smooth old rough timber?

Thanks so much for the detailed explanation. Can we use a cob mix of sharp sand, clay and straw as the building material?

I wonder, since its not stabilized, if you should leave the forms on overnight to ensure rigidity and possibly reduce the damage caused my accidents (corner). Great video and thanks for sharing. I think there are also gloves you can buy that reduce the vibrational impact of ramming and I would agree, lift, drive down but let fall.

good experiment!!! I did just a small test wall with a view for buiding extension to my house in Ukraine with using what is available. Sawdust is quite an overlooked product which I've relpaced sand with ,which in my region is a problem to get. Just cement and sawdust in a damp not sloppy mix gave a comparative ,dense and stable result. I used MDF dust which is the worst variable of sawdust,rough mixed with soft is best mix from rendering experiments i've done previously. Anyway, the block will take weeks to dry thoroughly but externally it was ready to receive a next layer folllowing day. Positives:you can render it with ease, though its waterproof already, thermal properties, you can screw into it, its solid and reacts to impact by becoming harder ,(ballistic properties (Local problems) you can cut out windows or whatever post build. Cons, I have no idea yet.!

Very cool 😊

Like so much how sincere and raw this video is … really with the purpose of helping others as well . Thanks a lot

I plan to stabilize my build, why not if you are doing the work just pay for the weather proofing

Gonna be using rammed earth for my buildings on my ranch. Thx for the video

Yaşa , teşkkürler sana, sevgiler saygılar sana.🇦🇿

Excellent content. I've been reading so much about concrete, how its made, pozzolans, etc.. etc.. The one thing I keep seeing with those having successful rammed earth (RE) projects is that they either go with gravel/sand/portland (no clay) or they have a strong and very obvious clay representation in their dirt. One of the biggest things you have to be concerned about is the amount of silt in your clay, because its very unstable with water at < 150 microns, and you need to have well graded sand. Well graded means "enough"/"good" representation of all sizes of sand particles (from no 4 to no 200 sieve). Then you'll have less air pockets and higher density, which when combined with the portland increases the strength. In any event Poorly grade soils in general are more apt to be susceptible to soil liquefaction. I've also read lime is a better stabilizer to use if you're using a clay soil and if a sandy soil, then use portland. While it would be more work, I'm wondering, for my own project, if I'll need to sift through it all and ensure my grade is acceptable. We'll see. Test blocks are going to be made. Lots of them. Thanks again. I'm inspired!!

Thanks for the video

Man! This is perfect ! I was struggling with this problem. The angled planing with a reference from the back is brilliant

Thank you so much for this

I am learning from you. I want to do a fence around 2 acres of land

Excellent

Simple ecofriendly solution.

What’s the max recommended height for a rammed earth wall? For instance if the form was 10 feet high, how would you be able to tamp it down when it’s so deep?

I could watch this guy all day..no b.s. ..just use what you have and get dirty!!

Thank you for the instruction! It was very simply presented.

Nice

Great like from România 🤝🔔👍

This is the key - I've been searching for a way to effectively use a small electric planer for wider stock and you explain and show it brilliantly, many thanks. Right, time to sharpen the chainsaw!

so , 2 years old , adjust for current prices, 4X now!!

nice timber! those slabs look gorgeous. next time you're at the flattening stage using the electric hand planer, you'll have an easier time if you have a straight edge to use as a reference by placing it directly on the work piece. some reference lines on the endgrain will help too.

Ok, I don't feel bad about my freehand milling technique, I just gotta plane it down

So we all agree use 5-10% cement? I'm thinking I wouldn't do this without a tractor/skidsteer and a concrete mixer...

great!

This is exactly what I’ve been doing also. So many slabs now. I would like to get more mobile so I can slab at different locations alone easier when I find permission on a specific tree. Keep it up stay safe. So much good wood goes to mulch or the landfill it’s depressing. Save the wood ! The state just clear cuts cherry walnut oak like it’s garbage ahhhhhh the mountains of logs headed for the mulcher kills me.

It’s a planer not a “jointer,” but great video …

Hello there ! Just wondering , how do you join (connect two walls) Thanks :>)

I destroyed a 4m long board trying to do this, now it is full of lines of various heights.
