- PRIMITIVE SKILLS: make a new forge bellows to replace the old one, Wilderness Alone (ep 175)
The forge bellows were rotten I had to replace with a new one. I used the tree that I cut down earlier to get a piece of wood. It is quite difficult to puncture the bellows. The fish in the pond are growing, corn and rice are growing very well. I'm going to upgrade the smithy, I've finished the background.
Please send me ideas to gmail: huyduong.primitiveskills@gmail.com
Have fun watching the video!

You definitely need some kind of wood preservative, to keep your woodwork from rotting so quickly. Perhaps there is a tree in your forest with nuts that can be pressed for oil. Or, as I have seen suggested here before, plant a crop with seeds that are good for oil, like flaxseed. Or, plant more cotton, since you can press oil from the seeds that is good for cooking or woodwork, and you could use the fiber to weave yourself a blanket for chilly nights. Or weave fishnets, for when your fish are big enough to start harvesting.
You put so much work into the water wheel, the monjolo, and your buildings and furniture, it would be nice for them to last you longer. And the oil press would be another project for you to build!
Or make a distillation apparatus and distill resins from heated wood.
He has previously made some tar-like substance if I remember correctly.
But another thing that will also help is to ensure the wood is kept as dry as possible. Some of the lumber is kept outside in the rain which will just make it rot way to fast.
@@Gin-toki I remember him collecting a small pot of latex, which I think he used as a glue. I don't think that would be practical as a wood finish. And, even if he was storing most of the woodwork under a roof, he can't keep the manjolo or the waterwheel dry. He really needs some kind of oil or varnish.
@@DianeGraft That is correct.
And he should remember to close of the water when the wheel is not in use which he has not done on serveral occasions.
Another option (if possible) is to select wood species with better weather resistance.
Cedar wood is one such example, that is often used as roofing in untreated form and last for many years.
I think he should consider creosote and tar.
He already makes charcoal where one of the byproducts is creosote, he just needs to figure a way to collect it so it does not just burn up in the kiln.
Ancient Hawaiian technique is to debark the wood and shape it, then find a still portion of water with high silt content along a stream and soak the wood for at least 3 months or longer. The minerals in the silt will seep into the wood and fill in the wood grain, this makes the wood way harder, denser, heavier, and more weather proof.
Is it a possibility in the future that you might catch some chickens? Build a chicken coop for them even, so you could have fresh eggs everyday. 🐔🥚🐣
Chickens have to be tended every day and they attract rats
@@richardplantagenet8090 I imagine he would.
@@richardplantagenet8090 maybe he will make a floating chicken coop
Chickens in a florest?
@@maakikursi2860 Chickens actually originated from Southeast Asia, so if anything his environment is perfect for them _and_ it would be historically accurate
Make sure you stay hydrated. Stay healthy. Thank you for the videos.
I don't think he has a water problem... lol
Thank you for continuing this series, even if it's hard, this has surprisingly helped me a lot with depression and pushed me to pursue new skills.
If someone told me I had to hollow out that log with hand tools, I wouldn't even try. So much work, man! Impressed as always.
I would have told you such a thing was not possible.
i would have said nice new shirt
You can't even be bothered to use your real name.
I am waiting for your water wheel powerd shaw mill 😁😁
I think that this is actually a good idea.
35°C outdoors, 27° indoors, and 33° or higher for the rest of the week... that pool looks so tempting.
So soothing...little peace of Heaven
With your new bellows, you should try making a hand-crank augur. It would help you to drill holes in the wood much more easily.
This right here is what I came to suggest. Even just forging a decent sized couple of "drill bits" or corkscrew style piece that you can attach to the post on the grinding wheel or something.. would make a lot of various woodwork (hollowing out, jointing, etc) much easier and without using up an entire day's worth of work and human-energy!
You need to extend the handles on your wheelbarrow. That will make it easier to control, easier on your back. Additionally, separate the handles. Ideally, they should come to either side of your hips. Your hands should be able to hang down at your side to properly grasp the handles. This gives you maximum control and push power
Excellent comment. I've been wondering about the configuration of that wheelbarrow since it first made its appearance.
@@holmesmycroft2157 Could you repeat that please? Translate is broken.
@@holmesmycroft2157 : The "Modern" wheelbarrows must be of that new "Levitating" type. They leave no wheel tracks !! No modern wheel tracks to be seen anywhere.
Oh ! By the way..... Your English skills fell apart on this comment. That, or you self medicated a little too much.
@Holmes Mycroft To build off a well known saying, "Those who can't do, criticize."
@@MrAndyBearJr : Exactly !! @Homeless Mindcrap is no more than another "No-content" Troll !
Wow that's a lot of fish
Love your little paradise you made yourself here, can't wait for next video
bom dia amigo qui bom a sua experiencia com o arroz deu serto ta crecendo muito bem uma semana feliz pra voce
I have got to say that with all the other primitive channels except for one, doing some crazy build house you are giving people what they want to see. nothing fancy, no huge house made of dirt in 2 days, just a shack and some tools that took time to make. Bravo my friend.
Exactly! His videos are my go to for just that reason. And that man has fantastic axe aim...
Thank you for showing how you hollowed out the log for the bellows.
Fish are doing really well!
Super good jobs
Your videos are wonderful!
An idea: You can make your wood last longer by painting it with lime (from limestone). This can prevent it from rotting as quickly.
To know and understand and to be in touch with the world you live in is worth more than gold
I think trying to grow a gourd, so you can make a rounded scoop for pulling stuff out of the manjolo would be a great thing! do it!
holy crap! there's SO MANY FISH!
It would be interesting to see a sort of “behind-the-scenes” video of how your camera setup, how your get your amazing camera angles, and other stuff. :)
@@holmesmycroft2157 if he has a production team, why camera is always 100% fixed and never moved?
I've also been curious about video and how he's been able to keep the camera batteries charged, etc. I assumed it was just him out there and he uses solar power or has a town nearby he goes to recharge, get a haircut, maybe a fancy new shirt, etc :P
I like your videos!! Thk you! Use liquid lime for protect wood =)
how does liquid lime protect wood?
@@realperson9951 in Russia, trees are covered with lime mortar(lime milk) against insects, as well as against fungi and mold
@@nezajac rumours saying it doesn't work. Or maybe you can point me to some research papers on a topic?
@@jskratnyarlathotep8411 it only works because the whole country uses it, the insects avoid the lime. Why do I need to prove something that works in practice? Lime is a caustic alkali
The problem here isn't so much the insects, but rather the extremely degrading environment of the tropics. Stuff decays way faster. Not sure how effective lime is against fungus and rot. I'd say a more effective solution would be some sort of primitive lacquer or resin coating, but lime would certainly be easier.
Why don't you lightly singe the wooden things you create? its a primitive method to protect against rot
It seems like you just made the old piston bellows, but it's been a while. Time flies. I'm hoping this one gets powered by the water wheel. That would really increase your forging power.
I've been waiting to see that. I think a Scotch Yolk mechanism would work.

It looks like your rice experiment is going well. Also you should have plenty of fish.
So glad you got a new shirt
You are a inspiration for a lot of people please continue to make awesome videos….I like the ones where you make the hand tools and the smelting videos
2:22 incredible sound
Nice New Threads😎
With the steady sound of water and nature, I could sit for hours just watching your rice grow. That is a very nice shirt you have now. Continued good health and happiness my friend. Ohio/USA
After watching your primitive skills. It has occurred to me that Primitive man was and is more advanced and capable than modern man. Sir you are awesome.
Have you ever thought of saving all the wood chips to use as mulch for your garden? It would help keep weeds out and help retain moisture - not that that’s a problem where you are 😅
great video friend uses a gear system to maximize the power of the water wheel
Ancient Hawaiian technique is to debark the wood and shape it, then find a still portion of water with high silt content along a stream and soak the wood for at least 3 months or longer. The minerals in the silt will seep into the wood and fill in the wood grain, this makes the wood way harder, denser, heavier, and more weather proof.
I think it time to see about making a really long auger, friend.
Something super satisfying about watching wood be cut apart in chunks by an axe.
Bạn rất tài năng,chúc bạn luôn luôn mạnh khỏe 💪💪💪💪💪❤❤🧡🧡💛💛💛
I hope someday you will bring your family to enjoy your all beautiful Project's and have picnic your kids will nave fishing and your wife will harvest the vegeables to. cook what a beautiful scene happy family God blesd you all!!
You got a saw mill now bro you can make a double box bellows and use some of the pig skin for the valve flappers, would have saved you time and given more efficiency for your draft.
Might be a good idea to work on some sort of lathe machine off that waterwheel, so that you can better manage equipment and require less work.
Another great video
Stay safe
NEW PRIMITIVE LIVING CHANNEL 🙏❤️
I would LOVE to see the new bellows automated: Hooked up to the water wheel!!!
lmao I've been thinking... I work in a welding factory. I spent the first month on that job wearing polo shirts because, eh, that's what I had. I was fine because the weather wasn't too hot yet. but I think I made some of my coworkers feel more heat when they looked at my thick shirts....
and since where I live is nowhere near as hot and humid as Vietnam.... I keep thinking how it would feel in that climate to wear a polo and it makes me empathize more with my coworkers lol
Mantap...👍👍👍
Tetap Semangat.. 💪💪💪
Thank you for the videos
severek beğenerek zevkle izliyorum türkiyeden selam sevgiler
I do tree work for a living so when you said you're making a soul mill I'm still waiting when that's finishing.
You would just have to add more flexible metals medals to create a kind of saw that would sustain the stress yes which is not impossible but it is very probably hard I would say Depending if he makes a band or if he makes a circular salt probably a circular
@@mikedesposito1981 : The type of blade he used for his Bow saw is all he needs. Ancient saw mills were reciprocating types. The blades were scaled up to have a longer stroke and be beefier.
Like the reverse of the pistons in your car, the reciprocating sawmills convert circular motion into linear motion.
They take the millwheel (or some other wheel inside the mill) and mount an off-center pivot pin, and attach a connecting rod that runs over to the saw frame and log carriage.
Some mills are single blade types if there is not enough turning power. But if they have sufficient power, they will gang up multiple blades, so they get multiple cuts with the same pass of the log.
The sawblade frame kind of looks like a giant version of those wire, multi-slice cheese cutters.
I just watched another Y/T video from France or Spain, where some Historical Society restored a several hundred-year-old, multi-bladed, reciprocating sawmill. Very interesting !! It is amazing what they were able to create with wood, Stone, and a little bit of metal !
I also just read in Archaeology Magazine, about a multi-bladed, reciprocating saw that the Egyptians used to cut stone slabs. They used copper blades that look exactly like the iron one That @P. Skills used for his Bow saw.
The Archaeologist say that the blades wore down at a rate of one inch for every inch to four inches of stone cut..... But, they must have thought it was worth it
Well it looks like you know what you're talking about
next step chickens!
Awesome, the fish worked
This guy is my Zen Master. :)
It's easier now to make a new one because you have a tools
Unlike the first one that you use only fire🥰
Keep it up 💪🤠
Lever-actuated switch for the water line
Your videos are so peaceful, love to watch them in the morning😄
I’m always amazed at how soft the wood is there
Was about to say the same
That's what your girlfriend says every time? My bad, you don't have one.
We tropical forest, theres soft and very dense wood
Do you have a wood that does not rot fast in your area? Soon you will be replacing the water wheel and many other parts.
Maybe a wood with a high resin content?
Do you have Rosewood, Teak, or another?
Here in the US we have Cedar that will last a long time and rots very slow.
Best I could think of for his area would perhaps be chinese pond cypress, which was historically used for shingles and I believe is pretty rot resistant. However this species is now exceedingly rare and almost extinct in the wild (and it would probably be a very bad idea to chop one down anyways if one was found). Other than that his area might be just a tad too cold for super tropical plants, he's in the highlands of northern Vietnam iirc. It is also pretty notoriously hard to identify many of the special tropical hardwoods, so finding something like that could prove to be a massive effort.
That being said, its still definitely a good idea. But perhaps a more practical version would be to just treat the wood with resin or something, which would still protect it and be a bit more possible.
Yep he could do with making another waterwheel but a much wider one next time, the one he built is to narrow and doesn’t produce enough power
Que envidia,vives en un auténtico paraíso,así debería de ser el mundo pero acabamos con todo
Fantastic work you're doing!! I'm still wondering how far you have to travel to upload your videos? Have a great day and stay safe. 😄
Greetings from Poland! I love your movies
you can install it in a convenient place and make a pipeline from bamboo, of course you need to think it over, but it will greatly facilitate the work
Como brasileiro, gostaria de ter um lugar assim mim, onde eu poderia fugir do sistema que aqui nos aprisionam! muito bom seu trabalho, sempre continue mandando videos,.
Partiu Ratanabá ou grila a amazônia?
You should seal all your hard work on those bellows so it can last longer.
Vc deixou tudo muito lindo ....com essa piscina natural .. parabéns vc vive no paraíso . Deus o abençoe sempre!!!💋💋❤️❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I am happy to see your new T shirt👕
Ven hồ nên trồng nhiều cây ăn trái , ngô ,đu đủ ,nuôi gà ,nuôi lợn, làm VAC luôn.
31:01 well done with your fishes
you should make a big drilling tool and attach it to the waterwheel
Always amazed at your tenacity. My grandfather would catch wild fowl, by making a pyramid trap out of sticks, then dig a trench, put grain in the trench and on the ground in the pyramid, then lay a board on the inside of the trap over the trench close to the trap. The birds go in and then start walking around looking up and around for away out, all the time crossing over the trench.
Such a beautiful big tree (wood)
Wonderful as always!😃💕
Amazing video I like Life style
This was such a great episode. New shirt looks great. Cool camera angle while chopping that log. Chickens! I mean what else could you want?
잘 보고 갑니다.
Finally, new shiiiiiiiiiiiirt!!!!1!
Also, dude, I don't meant to be a grammar nazi, but "Have a nice day" is not a phrase you use to greet others. It is used when yo are saying good bye. You have been using it wrong many times, I have been holding back on correcting you until now...
Thank you!
My English is very bad, I have to use translation
@@PrimitiveSkillsnet It's okay, English is not my native language, too, but I'd find it convenient to have Google around in the age of Internet. Whenever I have any words or phrase that I am not 100% sure of it's meaning or usage, Google will always be able to point me to places where I can learn them, or even answer my questions directly.
That bark can be boiled in charcoal mixtures and fibres pounded to separate it. You can then further process it to make rope, paper and clothing. It's not just bark you can do that with, you can do that with the outer skin of most plants. I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do, but I only wanted to give an idea. I know making cotten Fibre has been challenging in the past. Love ur videos regardless. They are so calming and inspirational
Bạn Toàn hôm nay được bộ đồ mới rồi
have you considered burning the logs on the inside so that it makes the wood tougher and it doesn't rot that quickly?
And the outside to cut down on termite damage
Charred surface might affect the movement of the piston?
@@k.3004 I guess not, because you would still process this surface with instruments to make it smooth. But the wood should become stronger and more durable
Hey bro love your vids hope we can meet again
I saw all the episodes awesome
Love to watch you work, you are so creative. You do so with the natural resources around you, so I honestly think that you should do a major upgrade.
You made cement from the lime rock,then you made the concrete blocks, the fish pond was made from block that you made, so I would love to see you upgrade to block house, wild pigs , chicken pigeon and the whole 9 yards .
You can do it, clear all the bushes from around your house,it makes your look so dark.
Finally you bought the new t-shirt!👍
Hola me da gusto verte usando tu camiseta nueva. Porqué no domésticas animales salvajes para tu granja? Pollos, jabalíes y abejas melíferas, además, el clima es perfecto para que puedas cultivar café. Piénsalo. Saludos 🙋🏻♀️
Đôi dép truyền thống đâu rồi a ơi 😂😂😂
Don't take this the wrong way but this is just an idea. Instead of remaking things that rot out, maybe take the opportunity to make something different as an upgrade. In this case you could make a different type of bellows, maybe a centrifugal fan type? Harvest more rubber tree sap to make rubber would increase your options of design. The water hammer could have been upgraded to a grinding stone as well. I actually thought that's why you made a water wheel. Anyway, thank you for the top notch videos!
WOW build a trap, catch some of those wild chickens, raise your own and harvest their eggs too.
Your work skills are too good
Seeing your progression going from hunter gatherer to agriculture and from stone age to the metal age. Next step is industrialization. Put the water wheel to work, use it to build mechanisms. Im sure there's some engineers online and on your fan page who could help you design something feasible. Im just thinking about mechanically powered bellows and forging hammer.
crops looking good!
Idea: run the bellows with the water wheel.
This is what winning looks like.
Incredible
if you make a springpole lathe for woodworking you could turn really nice handles for your tools
23:16 The moment we were all waiting for....
Q MUCHO APRENDISTE FELICIDADES 👏 😉
Great job man. Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Keep it up!!!
The Aztec people use to grow on floating platforms. They yield good crops or so history tells us
I do like watching your videos ...the nature sounds and birds is calming ...
I am curious why you don't catch live chickens...(eggs) or get a goat ...(milk).
Crochet or knit a net and attach it to a pole to do dip net fishing your fish pond I'm sure has an ample supply by now
One thing I did see that treats wood from water and other elements is when they burned the outer layer then treated it with oil (sho shugi ban) that's how I spell it.
Chopping a log wood like this gentleman once, my both arm were so sore for the next week that I thought I gonna say goodbye to them forever...
have you think of using the water wheel to drive either the bellow tube or the auger.... an instant boring machine/lathe ;by attaching one of them directly to the wheel shaft.
The waterwheel he has now is not big or wide enough to produce the power he would need plus he would need to increase the water supply to it
