    As you said, 137 years ago (late 1800's) no power tools, probably no easy access to the property, with just an idea or out of necessity, with strength, determination, maybe a little help and a whole lot of sweat. Please keep this channel to the restoration, as a tribute to the amazing people who were able to build the house, make it a home and I'm assuming lived off the land. Anxious for the next video.

    Top tip. Sprinkle water when you have that much dust to deal with. ….. and do your flies up or your tackle will get cold. Like the channel keep it going.

    I believe your chainsaw needs sharpening and because your house repair is of a stone house in Italy, it would be wise to employ an Italian stone mason to give you sage advice on how to proceed properly with the repairs. Sage advice learned at the very start will afford you to avoid costly mistakes and setbacks in the months ahead.

      The tree 🌳 it's self was a beech tree and it fell only because of the land giving so it was strong and still in good health cutting it straight down would take seconds how ever cutting strips for shelfs takes time and patients. the blade was sharp and the chain saw was at ease yet the sound on the gopro sounds terrible ... I've done this for many years Im happy to keep to what right I've just removed a old willow tree back in England this weekend cut it like butter totally depends on trees chain it's still going strong 💪 👍

    I'm a subscriber and i like what your doing. More power to ya. As a builder and fabricator I don't think skinning a dump box floor without removing existing floor is a good idea. moisture will be eventually trapped between the layers and not end well as the moisture cant escape readily. My advice is power ahead. Its easy to be a critic. Thanks for sharing.

    • @TravisRowlands
      @TravisRowlands Місяць тому

      I totally agree however, there's a fine line in my brain between how much I throw at this dumper that might not last not knowing the history of it 😅 More to last the house build only i just wanted it to have no leaks for when I pile concrete in there for doing a foundation work 👌 I was thinking to use the engine as a generator later see

    Hi Travis, you're welcome! It's a great idea to keep those stones, woods and maybe others things; they might be very useful in the future. After a good cleanup, you'll see things more clearly. I follow other channels like yours. You both seem like a lovely couple, and I think I'll continue following you in hopes of learning something new and maybe even offering some modest advice. Greetings from Genova!

    Hi from France Travis and Claire At the begining of 3 rd épisode, just before the French A26 highway toll, you are closer less 3 km of my village, you can see the top church from the road. Do you know MARTIJN DOOLARD youtube channel ? He also rebuilt stone cabin in Italian alp, he is near Turin, in Noth of Monte VANDALINO. Where are you near of ?

    • @TravisRowlands
      @TravisRowlands 2 місяці тому

      O wow 👌 that's awesome we are 30min from turin problem with sharing areas is privacy and alot of people watch the videos I have a feeling people randomly turn up at Martijns property, that is why I think it's great to share the build but Privacy is key Also, things are likely to go walk about sharing areas Kind regards Travis ✨️

    • @rolanddenis4152
      @rolanddenis4152 2 місяці тому

      OK no problem with that, I just want to know if it's piedmont or dolomit in regard with technical type of construction. Have a nice week.

    • @TravisRowlands
      @TravisRowlands Місяць тому

      Thankyou yes we are in the Piedmont area 😀 the construction is so different per region of area so my side of the mountain I can do say a larger window size then the other side For example it's all down the the rules of the local council and area it's so hard to know it's best to speak with a local Geometry to the area your buying before you purchase 👍 😉

    It's the same with a horse. If it won't go forward over, through or by something, you can just turn it around and back it up. At least that's been my experience over the last 60 years.

    I love watching what you are doing. Do continue. But, I wish you posted more often. Going a month at a time means little sense of continuity. If possible, post once a week or (at least) every fortnight.
