could you do a comprehensive list of what you need to pickup/gather for each craft/build recipe. i feel like ive passed something up in my playthrough on xbox.
The "Grid of the land" is cardinal directions: north, south, east, west. As long as you are facing one of those directions, the pickaxe will dig straight. No need to "find the grid." :) Good video. Thanks!
This video was very informative in many ways. The lay of the land, the placement of where to strike with the pike, the stone foundation placement. I give this video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@Chiselchip Yeah, I was able to make a 7 X 13 cellar with nice straight sides thanks to you for explaining how the pickaxe works. I hope your channel grows huge, your videos are great!
I've watched a ton of Valheim videos and your videos are so good. Particularly the explanations. I thought I knew most of the tricks but watching this showed me there is still more to learn
Because of the way that 45 degree land renders out you can also go at 45 degrees to the "grid of the land". When doing a repair on a miss with the pick, stand at the bottom of the basement and aim at the top of the side you want to repair with the raise land tool. Uses less stone and is MUCH more controllable.
Especially with the BetterLadders mod, ladders work just fine :D Without the mod, Ladders are obnoxious to use, but the mod makes em as smooth as stairs to go up and down
Thank you for the awesome explanations to go along with the visual demonstrations! I love that you also cover how to fix things if a mistake is made, very informative :)
My basements usually contain every crafting station and if possible, all possible crafting boosts. My standard building uses 9x9 double ground plates (the ones that are like 1x1 meter). On that area, I can fit in everything the game offers, except the eitr raffinery ;), but with melters, windmill and coal burner. Not even a basement needed.
I like to make a sub-basement to fit some of the larger add-ons. It's a layer right underneath the stations that's exactly high enough to walk in, which is close by enough to make them connect to the station.
nice... i've been making basements last, think I"m gonna start with basements for now on. I'm always scared AF that when digging under my house that it's gonna cause a domino effect collapse lol
Good tutorial! Would have been nice if you ended the video with a creation of your own in which you included the basement in the video, like as an inspiration to anyone wanting to incorporate this basement.
I could easily see this being modified for an infinity pool near the shoreline, or inground pool near a house on the plains. Just like real life, need to bring plenty of insect repellent!
Great video! I have one question. Will building a basement affect structural integrity of a roof? For example, if I build a basement under the house, then use corewood on those stone pieces of the basement roof, will my roof be less supported or is it the same? Thanks
i do have a question. i haven't played much of this game but i di play a lot of No Mans Sky a while back. the problem i had with NMS is after a while the ground i dug out would automatically fill itself in. does that happen with Valheim?
How close to a body of water can you safely dig a basement. ? I've been wanting to build a Longhouse close to the ocean but also have an underground Armory/ Storage room. !!

@@AaronPMC might be able to at some point. Lot of info out there though on everything for crafting
Valheim has such a satisfying build system. Probably my fave out of all the survival games. (I despise floaty non physics based structures)

Idk man, I had my house positioned with the walls facing each of those ways and the basement came out janky
@@a7xfan778 Yah, sometimes it works but finding the grid by using the pick axe or hoe is the fail-safe way of doing it for sure!
This video was very informative in many ways. The lay of the land, the placement of where to strike with the pike, the stone foundation placement. I give this video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So glad it helps!! Happy building, and hope this makes future basement digging easier :)
@@Chiselchip Yes, thanks for time you put in to help gamers, I followed your directions and got good results.
@@donmiller2908 Awesome!! glad to hear you found it helpful!!

@@donmiller2908 glad to hear!!! good luck with your builds and thank you :)
18:57 got to love that part ❤

Thanks for the thoughtful comment! Glad it was inspiring and insightful!
Listening through parts of this video reminded me of Rick and Morty's Interdimensional Cable. Great basement tutorial. Thanks.
Great tutorial on a lot of things here, especially finding the 'lay' of the land for digging straight lines 👌Thanks for sharing!
Glad it helps! yah I see a lot of basements / cellars done by even pro builders but this way just makes it a lot more accurate and easy!
@@Chiselchip Yeah, definitely! Good of you to mention the chunk edge thing too since not everyone is used to that sort of generation :)
Thank you. Exactly the tutorial format I need for constructing the stone-level of my base.
TYVM for the Pickaxe aiming advice.
I've seen this video more times than I should admit. The best guide so far.
@@FreelancerCZ glad it’s helpful :)
Such a thorough and detailed guide. Well done! I wanna try and make a basement now for my next build!
Glad you were able to follow along! Good luck on your build :)

Wish I saw this before I made my forever home, maybe I could make a cellar instead with this guide.
Many thanks for all the building details .. insted i just covered all the basment with stones and built a portal inside 😊
Especially with the BetterLadders mod, ladders work just fine :D Without the mod, Ladders are obnoxious to use, but the mod makes em as smooth as stairs to go up and down
I've never even played Valheim, probably never will. Still watched the whole video. You do good work my dude, keep it up!
Thanks!!! Definitely an amazing game if you ever consider it

Incredibly informative video! Learned a lot of little things I didn't know - like the X/Y coordinates! Thank you for making this!
So glad it was helpful:)
I was alaways curious how they did this thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Fellow small UA-camr! This is a fantastic video! Thank you SO much! Channel looks great, keep it up brother, I subbed.
Thanks!! So happy you enjoyed it!
Wish I saw this before I built my house, I'd love to have tried a basement, wonder if I can try to add one afterthought?
You can definitely add one after
My O.C.D completly loved this tutorial
haha glad to hear!! I'm definitely a perfectionist myself!
nice... i've been making basements last, think I"m gonna start with basements for now on. I'm always scared AF that when digging under my house that it's gonna cause a domino effect collapse lol

Fucking amazing video. Never even thought to add basements till i came across your build vids. Thanks for the inspiration!!
I could easily see this being modified for an infinity pool near the shoreline, or inground pool near a house on the plains. Just like real life, need to bring plenty of insect repellent!
really straight forward. thankyou!
I'm going to honest, I hope and can't wait for it to come to the playstation 5, on that note, I think I would build a dungeon/grave underground
You are a perfectionist. I learnt a lot from this video, thanks
Haha yep I’ll admit that I definitely am a lot, glad it was helpful :)
Here I am watching a video about building a basement in a game I have never played.
😂 it’s a fun game if you ever wanna give it a try
@Chiselchip I'll have to get it a shot. Looks like fun man.
@@hairlesswizard8818 my favorite game for sure!
UA-cam doesn't show things for nothing. This means that this topic is very interesting for you. Obviously, now you just need to play. =)
That was very good. Well done and well explained.
Thanks!! glad it was helpful!
Great video! I have one question. Will building a basement affect structural integrity of a roof? For example, if I build a basement under the house, then use corewood on those stone pieces of the basement roof, will my roof be less supported or is it the same? Thanks
it is the same if the supports are placed along the perimeter of the basement foundation wall
Finally i can make my Dead by daylight theme basement in valhiem !
Thank you! I learned a lot!
Glad to hear :)
Super helpful! Thanks!
this was awesome thankyou. subbing XD
how about an elder base? been as you can build on and under the elder spawn?
Funny you ask, I'm working on an elder base in my new wilderheim series! Doing a big storage bunker
Thanks for the video.
Great Video!!
i do have a question.
i haven't played much of this game but i di play a lot of No Mans Sky a while back.
the problem i had with NMS is after a while the ground i dug out would automatically fill itself in.
does that happen with Valheim?
Good question but no it always stays the same
Nice one!
How close to a body of water can you safely dig a basement. ? I've been wanting to build a Longhouse close to the ocean but also have an underground Armory/ Storage room. !!
@@U.S.CyberSoldier50 you can build as close as you want, just be sure the water level isn’t higher then your basement floor
I hope they add mods to the console edition. This game is a blast.
The amount of dopamine I got from watching the basement coming together was damn near lethal
😂
How do I dig a basement for my existence tower?
Feel free to watch my wilderheim series and I use this same technique to do that

"That is an amazing hole"
how did you free your camera like that to zoom out so far is there a free camera mode?
Yah! There is a freefly mode that I set to one of my keys. need to be in devcommands though
I can't get my hole to look as nice as your hole. How do you make your hole look so neat?
keep practicing I suppose 😄
How do you use resourses whitout having them?
is it a god mode?
By enabling developer commands
@@Chiselchip i know. What is the comand? Devcommands I already know
where did u get unli resources mod. No workbench needed
Dev commands in game
Now... how do I make that a swimming pool :)
😂 there ya go! Just follow this tutorial but ignore the part where I say make sure it’s high enough above water
InucrediBORUU!!
"i am a dwarf and i'm digging a hole" 3:20
haha gotta go comment that on my Return to Moria episodes 😄
So why not put them stones FIRST???
OMG, I am such a noob in this game. I have barely learnt to build a wood house and start upgrading my rags 😅😂😅
Haha definitely more building adventures to come!! The more you do it the better you become as with anything :)
@@Chiselchip thank you, and yes I'm very excited.
Tienshinhan made this hole.
Why not build without codes...
There’s no reason not to, I just do it for the videos since it’s easier
