Keep up to date on the whole series here: ua-cam.com/play/PLxnadpeGdTxC1z7ODd-UYXvzdal9nnt9i.html This is going to be a challenging build but we’re looking forward to it! Let us know what you want to see done at the camp 👇🏻
It would be neat if you leave the rafters that long and when you put a roof on it you'll have storage all the way around at the entrance for firewood tools stuff like that
I want to know more about that axe that Dustin used because dude that thing looks Wicked. I love your building videos so keep up the good work guys great content. ^^
Hey! Love your series of builds of historic types of shelter/homes. Just a suggestion for this one. Don't cut all of the rafters off at the wall. If you leave a couple of them, side by side, going all of the way to the ground and continue your roof materials to the ground, you will have convenient dry storage underneath for fire wood or what ever. I would do one on each side of the structure my self. Also if you stake out the ends of the rafters that you leave going all of the way down, they will also add rigidity to the overall structure.
Using hand tools make us appreciate what our ancestors had to go through when it came to building structures. That is a knowledge that not many can say that they know. I am highly impressed with all of your videos. This video is AWESOME just like the others! Glad to see you and Dustin back at it! 👍👍
It was even worse for them as they didn't have some of these tools. If you are curious about this kind of craft, there is an experimental archeology projet in France aim to build a 13th century castle by only using 13th century tools and crafts. Search for "Guedelon castle", there are a lot of videos and even a channel with English subs.
The best damn bushcraft channel on UA-cam!! Let"s get Mike's channel to 2 million subscribers!! Mike is such a great inspiration for the younger generation today.
You guys are doing amazing job. You are the only guys I know that makes work look like fun. Very educational and addictive to watch. Keep up the great work
What excellent timing. I just finished watching part 2 about three hours ago and was so eager to see more that I searched for part 3. Lo and behold, here it is! It's so wonderful seeing these historic builds. This channel brings back so many fond memories of my childhood where my cousin and I would build temporary shelters in the rainforest on my Oma's property. Thank you for showing these great techniques and explaining along the way. Beautiful work!
I love these when you two are working together. Such great friends, offering helping hands, sharing a love of the outdoors, building, camping, just being away from the rat race. Thank you!
Thank you! this is now the highlight of the evening at my place. So much better than mainstream tv. It's relaxing and inspiring seeing you guys do these builds
Last post, I promese.... I have been binge watching this channel since last evening. I needed to do three things at one time to keep my mind occupied so I wouldn't focus on the pain in my legs. Why share this? Because I want the maker of this content to know how much his style, content and interactive video making is soothing and interesting enough to take a Nana's mind engaged. Thanks much young man!!
Looks awesome! My daughter and I just snared a hog the other day butchered it and cooked it over the fire for lunch it was an amazing experience. This is what life is all about for us
I am still amazed you haven't just made a simple bodger's bench with all the drawknife peeling and shaping you are doing! It makes life so much easier... Loving the builds!
I started bushcrafting when I was 21 im now 65 and you might get people saying you don't use historic ways and tool but I don't see them building anything you guys rock by the way ive watched you sence your knife build with Alec so keep doing what you do and I enjoy it all
Great work guys. An alternative would have been to pass the rafters through the hazel ring resting on the far inside. With two or three poles it might have locked there and not needed the initial lashing.
Just what i was thinking - the ring would effectively act like the fabric round the top of a teepee, which in tension keeps the support frame together.
Totally diggin' this build. I discovered your channel by way of the Viking House build and instantly subscribed. Being stuck at home on medical leave these builds are very therapeutic and inspire me to get back on my feet and out in the woods. Keep up the good work!
I knew you'd upload part three soon! I'm so excited! I wrote two of my term papers listening to part one and two in the background! Let the productivity begin!
You blokes are doing great! There's such a rich and diverse amount of history in the UK. You've tapped into something truly authentic and fascinating. We may not have wilderness, but we have ...this! Keep up the good work! I'd like to see some old English pagan stuff. 👍
Also have a small drainage ditch around the perimeter to prevent rotting of the wall fabric from below in wet weather. Looking like a good build, reference to butser farm, 50 or so years of experimental archaeology in building roundhouses, will help but i love how you resolve problems in your own way. Excellent work!
My 5 year old loves watching your channel. He always asks when him and I can build like you guys do. Cannot wait to own some land to start doing this with my boy. Thank you for the amazing content and inspiring my kiddo 😊🙏
Accidentally bumped into the Viking House vid 2wks ago & I'm totally addicted to TA Outdoors now. Your thorough attention to details is captivating. Just bought a 1" Scotch Eye Auger & a Canadian Draw Knife on Ebay. Sharpened all my hunting knives last week & will begin honing my axes & hatchet this week. I live in NEPA & am eager for Spring to burst forth. I miss fishing, hiking, camping & woodcraft. Your channel has inspired me to go build random shelters again. I saw a Brit video, older gent, build a Tinker's Tent a few weeks ago & I was wondering if Dustin & Mike would make a bigger version on video; his was only about 6'Hx8'W. Survival Lily had some troubles making hers all alone. I figured that Mike & Dustin, aka The Dynamic Duo, could bang out a 12'H Roundhouse? So, I'd like to request more detailed how to rustic furniture & a possible larger sized Tinker's Tent vids please. PS: please bring the Jack Russell along too. Thanx!
Mike you have no idea how much my wife and I have missed you, Dustin, dad, and amber. From one new father to another I say God bless you and your family. I cannot wait for the day that I can get my son liam, who is now 5 months old, out in the woods with my wife and i. Take care and keep supporting each other, we subscribe to all of your channels and we especially enjoy the videos that you do with Dustin and your father. We love you all! God bless and good luck to you, your wife, and your new little one. It goes by quick, enjoy every moment! -dominic patterson
Celtic Roundhouse? Looks more like a Celtic Conical House! I wanna see you build a Roman Parallelogram House next. Seriously, the axe at 1:20 is a beauty!
Another fantastic episode. Just a tip, leave as much rafter overhang as possible and thatch right down to this. It will offer greater protection from the elements and push water runoff further out and away from the structure base & walls. Also, that overhang will give you a good outside dry storage. cant wait or the net episodes.
It seems to me that these building videos would be good for schools to show children. And, the site would be interesting for them to visit. I suppose there are several reasons why that couldn’t happen. Anyway, good episode, gentlemen.
AHA!! Neo-Celtic Construction. Great to see you and Dustin back at the job site. I am very interested in how that hazel wreath will work as a structural member. A 'bird's beak' join at the bottom of each roofing timber where it meets the knee wall would also help to support the weight by transferring it laterally around the circumference. I'm betting your build will do well enough for the task. PS: you have a new axe and I can't read the maker's mark. It is a handsome product.
@@trentcason4734 climate cult is the government changing the weather with Chemtrails and the haarpp weather machine I'm certainly not part of that and religion causes anger and hatred and segregation religion is man made to control the masses it is a slave system God isn't hindu or Muslim or Christian or jew or Buddhist all of those are human systems so no religion here either
I was a bit surprised you didn't put the rafters inside the ring and their weight against the ring would have locked them in. The ring probably would have to be a bit smaller.
I know you like the idea of lashing the rafter poles to the ring. But if you would put the rafters through the center of the ring the structure would hold itself. The more rafters that you push through the ring the stronger it will become. The rafters need to touch the underside of the ring coming up then touch the top side of the ring once they are through. the more weight you add the stronger the roof will become. I am sure it will be too late by the time you read this to make the change. As always I'm still enjoying the build. :D
Very very good if our ancestors didn't have some of the tools you are using which they wouldn't have how the hell did they make the holes for pegs? They really was amazing and it seems they have rubbed off on these lads. Best channel on UA-cam.
This thing reminds me of a teepee. Check out how the interior of those were laid out, and how the smoke vent worked. Hoping for a good-sized central fireplace along the lines of the Viking house in here (and an overnighter using that). Great work!
Here in the states the Irish would soak the hazel wood in a pond for a day or so and the weave the ring and you are on the right track for raising the roof
You should have put the rafters through the hole in the center of the ring and have left about 2 feet on the ends after the hole/ring. Then it could not collapse without tearing the ring apart.
I love your channel. Not only the builds and the food that you and Dustin share, but also the fun with you and your dad. I like that you keep us interested in a variety of things that go on in your neck of the woods. Maybe your next project could be a "sod" house. Big square cuts of earth stacked like bricks. All the best from Ohio, USA.
One of the interesting things about this series is the way it helps us see how they lived in a more realistic manner. I did laugh that you were building a yurt, but that actually makes sense because various cultures often came to similar conclusions at about the same times. Super cool series.
Hazel and willow are what you want for your wattle and daub, too. You can get a really strong, tight wattle with them with much less effort than other species.
Hello my brother I absolutely have to say I love that ax these primitive buildings are a really nice I could actually see living in one they're not bad at all and I understand why they built them the way they did I didn't see your dad I hope everything is fine with him and all is well with your family my brother God bless and take care
I'd add one rafter on each end of the doorway arch, seems like you could use that geometry to get the roof to lay down nicely in the end, kind of create a slightly raised section for the sector from one end of the door arch to the other. The hazel ring is glorious, and don't worry about rigidity, that thing'll hold far more weight than the roof will ever put on it, especially once you get it tied down properly and the roof gets all the other supporting parts. I am a bit worried that the part where your rafters meet the upright wall most of the weight will be directed not at the post or the beam, but at that tiny peg you put in - it's the weak point in the structure. I'd probably have done a bit of joinery as you did with the posts and beams, to get part of the rafter to lay directly on the beam. But it'll probably still hold, it's not going to be an absurd amount of weight after all. Looking excellent in general, and I love how you always seem to have at least one lovely doggo around while in the woods!
Try rawhide strips. Basically get a dog chew. Put it in hot water til soft and then unwind it. Cut into thinner strips. You can bind all your joints together with it while its wet and as it dries it contracts and goes hard as concrete. Hope this helps!

About time lads! thanks for carrying on with the historic builds, us history buffs out here appreciate
I DO like the entry arch . Recumbent rafters are the way to alleviate the central post . As well as vent smoke build up . Nice.
That's gonna look cool when it's done. Great idea using that ash arch

That bearded axe is a lovely beast
HELLO, sir! Very interesting!! Thank you very much! My name Slavik, UKRAINE
The best Bushcraft Brothers back in Action. 😍 👍
Hooping it up us a very clever idea for securing the roof poles
I can smell the fresh cut cedar. It must permeate the Bush. 😌😌😌😌
Jesus thats a nice axe
I love British accent!❤️

that is one hell of a well maintained edge at 0:45

Beautiful job l love your work its clever and loads of fun "long live the creative mind of beautiful people"
Keep up the great work. Wish the weather would've been better for ya.
Celtic round house its like a regular house but round
You should have put the rafters through the hole in the center of the ring and have left about 2 feet on the ends after the hole/ring. Then it could not collapse without tearing the ring apart.
Leave the hole in the roof for ventilation. You can build a raised weatherhead for rain protection. That way you can have a small indoor firepit.
Really enjoy watching your channel 👍👍

There would be heavy weight if a branch fell on it or some heavy snowfall.
Nice work I'm from Pennsylvania I have a 16 ft teepee that's part of my native culture
For some reason i smiled real big when you guys lifted up that big curved log over the doorway
Try rawhide strips. Basically get a dog chew. Put it in hot water til soft and then unwind it. Cut into thinner strips. You can bind all your joints together with it while its wet and as it dries it contracts and goes hard as concrete. Hope this helps!
