So after this last bit of concrete its time to dig more out i think........this going to be an exciting time. Thanks for your support either in views shares great comments or merch purchases you guys are what makes this possible.
Tom and his JCB 😂😂
Any complaints from the local council yet 👀👀
is there a reason why dont make a provisionally door to the tunel to get condensation under control?
😂
I tried checking my credit score and the US government said I didn't exist.
You'll never be able to sell this house for what it's worth. You're building a million dollar mansion in a middle class suburb. But I get it, that's part of the charm. And besides, if you really love the home you're in, why level up just because you can afford to?
Would love to see an episode when this is all finished where you have an estate agent come and value the house that has never heard of the channel. The look on their face when you invite them down into the tunnel 😅🤭👌🏻
Great idea
That is genius
In his bunker update video he said he spoke with an Estate Agent and they told him that because of the size of the bunker he would have to sell the bunker with a house attached and not the other way around lol.
ua-cam.com/video/ZQy89tZ-mRU/v-deo.html
8:22 in the bunker update for when he mentions it
@@vFlagR that's bloody brilliant. Thanks for the laugh.
True. That would be a good reaction video.
However
Not sure how it works across the pond, but Realeastate Appraisal by township would result in escalated taxes.
I love the unedited/unpolished feel of this one with you talking to your tools and showing multiple "takes" trying to express a thought. It almost feels like I'm there helping you.
Part of the charm of this channel, I really like it!
Even for those of us that can't help with construction advice, I'm sure it helps him to try to summarise his thinking for the video. Have you ever shown someone at work how you do things, only to stop halfway through and go "Hang on, that sounds stupid, why don't I do it X way instead?"
This is what I wish the main channel was like
Colin Furze is living proof that anything can be entertaining if you do it with confidence and give it a soundtrack. It's super satisfying to watch a project come together, too.
He's just a complete legend in every way 👌
What I find so impressive, about this project in specific? Is that Colin has SO much energy and passion and drive, when a lot of people would look at a project of this scope, and just saw "aw hell no". He doesn't let the size of this thing grind him down, he just... keeps going. Truly impressive stuff.
the soundtrack makes it worse. it's literally the worst part of his videos
@@DevinDTV I disagree but to each their own
This was the type of comment I needed to read to make my day and give inspiration.
Tip for cutting steel with a reciprocating saw is to use machining oil or a type of lubricant. The big issue with the metal blades is how easily they blunt. This happens purely due to heat because the blade is so thin. A quick spray every few seconds keeps it cool and cutting. Turns an angry job into butter.
I cut a salvage car completely in half this way. Just kept dipping the saw in a jug of motor oil whenever things started to smoke. The blade even still had life left afterwards.
@@dennisferron8847 I used this method for cutting old railway tracks and extremely thick galvanised sheets
thanks for the info !
Does WD-40 count? For small scale jobs, I mean
Don't know if you'll see this Colin but I wanted to say definitely would recommend using at least an n95 when kicking up all that rust into the air with the grinder (as well as any other applicable times). My father was a remodeling contractor for over 20 years and often skipped using a mask or respirator when he should have. Now he spends most of the time completely unable to taste due to the polyps he developed in his sinuses. Even underwent a fairly risky surgery to remove them and only temporarily regained the ability to taste. Now he takes much better care to avoid breathing in dusts and etc. And sometimes gets his taste back for periods of time.
Would hate to see ya suffer the same fate!
Cautionary tales aside, congrats on 1 million subs🎉 well earned!
Tagging on, wire wheel no saftey glasses! I'm no saftey nut in any way, but don't! I've seen workmate with wire strand through eyelid. Missed the eyeball by 2 mm.
The quality of the wife's cooking determines if that's a blessing or a curse.
Had the same thought, but without the expertise to say so. Well put!
I hate wire wheels on the grinder. They tend to polish the rust and bits of wire fly off.
Yep, came to comment the same thing; breathing in that rust is not great, especially if he's gotta polish the entire inside surface.
Wear your eye protection EVERY time - flap wheels, wire brushes, and cut-off wheels... take from someone who knew better but thought it was 'just a quick cut'... there is no coming back from eye damage, only preventing it in the first place...
He talks about the reciprocating saw being the right tool. The right tool he was looking for was a face shield.
And hearing loss. You don't appreciate what you have till you lose it.
What happened to your eye???
I've had 4 trips to hospital with bits of metal in my eyes, wearing safety glasses and all.. sometimes it just happens :/ my eye sight is as good as when I was 19 according to my optometrist
I once had a milling bit explode and embed itself in my safety goggles. A smalled bit also nicked my cheek. Had to sit down for a bit to process how fucking lucky I was.
Always wear your PPE, always be cautious how you hold your tool in regards to your body (So you don't end up with a broken cutoff disk in your leg), and for godssake please wear proper ear protection. I'm 30 and have tinnitus for the rest of my life.
9:25 the most safety equipment whilst also working the most unsafe I've seen.
When you swapped hands with the grinder still running 😮
You're right, that's cosmically dumb shit, but also, that's just Colin. Still no griptape on the ladders, too.
yes that made me cringe too
As a welder/fabricator for 34 years a bit of danger makes it more exciting
This is why I, personally, prefer triggers over barrel switches. I've seen too many grinders dance their way across work site floors to ever feel comfortable with them
To be fair, he didn't apply it until the second hand was also holding it.
Love your work.
A few tips if you haven't already poured the top slab and for the next part
1. Be careful how far you allow concrete to drop as it can result in segregation, 2m is generally considered the limit. Bouncing it off the roof sheeting was a good way of mitigating this.
2. Run a length of empty 100mm pipe alongside the other services. It's cheep insurance if you ever need it.
3. If you can try to make sure you have a cross fall on you wrapped services. If there is a low point within your cover slab any water that can get in it wont be able to get out.
4. Make sure you talk to someone who knows what they are talking about when it comes to tying the reinforcement for the roof to the walls. The way you did it for the lower section wasn't ideal but not critical there. getting the upper layer right will help prevent cracking
Nice
All good advice.
I love how this 2nd Channel is turning more and more into my new favorite MAIN Channel! I love the "raw" editing style. Feels much more natural.
Yeah more like a true vlog, but about interesting stuff instead of clothes
We all need another update mate, desperately waiting for it
Colin, before you pour too much concrete, have you thought about dropping a water supply down into the garage for a tap and a sink (essential for tea making duty) you could run a waste down one of those never ending cracks and a small electric water heater for hand washing
Also data cables for mesh network. This metal-concrete structure is a dead spot for any wireless signal.
Honestly a dead spot hideout sounds great.
@@MandoFettOG Unless you are a you tuber 🤣🤣
It would be nice to have a hand wash station or for him to be able to use the pressure washer.
A bit of conduit does sound useful
You really have got to love for one of the most successful UA-camrs, who's whole channel is dedicated building stuff, and considering the fact that literally any tool sponsor would be bending over backwards to give him free tools, Colin chooses to still use his absolutely shagged set of ryobis for almost everything.
He's a legend, that guy
Collin, since you basically completely block off your house from the street underground with this project, you might want to put in a few extra spare empty pipes along with the current services.
Assume e.g. fiber gets pulled in your street, thy won't be able to just push to the house e.g. with an earth rocket or by trenching.
You will be really happy if you have one or two spare pipes end-2-end then.
You are making absolute sense. Also the local network. The earlier you do it - the easier, usually together with electrical wiring. This is painful to realize communications are not considered at all on this beautiful build. Remote controlled thermostats, alarm system, door sensors, weather monitoring, sound system and many more things.. internet in the bunker is nice to have. You can control your household systems from the bunker and vice versa.
Dang, you can boil tea remotely 😂
Seriously has he not put any empty spare conduit for future use?
Saw an idiot across the pond who thought he could put data and electric in the same conduit. 🙄 Before the pour he elected to not put in a conduit for data or even a spare one or two for future tech. Bloody stupid and short-sighted IMO.
@@josephking6515 definitely separately from electric wiring. I used to be a cable installer earlier and the amount of data cabling done by electricians makes me cry. Starting with smashed coaxial and Ethernet with a hammer, use of metal staples, power where it is not supposed to be, bad fittings, copper just twisted together for coupling… the list goes on. This is what u saw on UA-cam, but how much is left unseen.
@@yaroslavkobezskyi never hire an electrician for data cables - I know the saying. I used to design networks for ships - and if there’s one thing that’s more expensive than adding a forgotten cable into a building it is adding one in a ship. Imagine having to burn another hole in the steel after the interior has been added.
Always have spares, always have runs everywhere, always make a proper plan beforehand or you WILL forget stuff - and not to speak of routing, penetrations etc
the way this is coming along is awesome !! 👏
hi youtube
lol even UA-cam is watching your UA-cam 😳
How does this have so few likes?
Yes. The last thing you want on steel you're about to encase is rust. The alkaline concrete will convert what it can get to, but flakes can stop the alkaline environment getting to the steel and can set up galvanic cells, locally increasing corrosion. In bridge work, every square mm of rebar has to be cleaned before pouring concrete.
This was covered extensively in earlier videos
20:00 As a retired Boilermaker (Plater/Welder), Colin, I can assure you your welds are plenty good enough, not like many other UA-camrs involved in projects. Instead of wood, you'll find it easier to tack a piece of scrap (a dog) to the joists to rest a beam on in the right position, drop the beam on them, adjust with steel wedges, then tack, check, weld. Knock the dogs off, grind the tacks off flush. Same dogs can be used countless times. Nothing wrong with your structure, we're all really looking forward to the finish line (I bet you are, too)! Crack on, mate! 👍
Yep thinking same but im just qualified to class B/C on tig. Did 6G position/SFS-EN ISO 5817
What settings should be good enough on the welder for such thick plates?
@@LAproductions Yea i know didnt ask from me but on tig i use 150 or higher amps
was bored now im not thank you
I am a cheese grater
This
For now...
Same bro, same
Same
Wyd now are you re watching the vid so your not bored
Nice to see his neighbor came to watch!, I'm sure hes just as invested in this project as all of us!. 23:42
Probably just wondering when they’ll get peace & quiet 😁
I could imagine you, Mr Furz, being in possession of (or at-least RENTING one for a few weeks) a High-Power Laser rust cleaner / welder in the 1-5KW range.
These units are still rather expensive (Easily more than 10000USD) but are THE BOMB for removing rust scale or old paint from ANYTHING.
With one of these bad-girls you could blast that rust into oblivion and return the steel to 'perfect' condition.
Be a nice tax deduction for his UA-cam business Channel. Same for new tools that will make the work a bit easier, faster and maybe safer. HMRC can then watch his deductions at work, at work. 😁
Lol, love how your swearing neighbour just sat down and chilled while you worked
No animal noises in this video unfortunately
I love these kind of videos, raw mostly unedited footage just amazing! we need moreeee ❣
Yeah, I really like seeing colin in his process and kind of just sharing his thoughts and approach so casually. It fills in what I've always been curious about and it's relaxing to watch. I actually can think of more times I would put on content like this than the more sensational edited down stuff(which is amazing of course)
Whose channel did you take over?
Julia_tradescrypto more like julia_losesmoney
Crypto trader commented, opinion invalidated
Get out of here, stolen channel weirdo
Not sure about anyone else, but personally I prefer this channel to the main one. The main channel videos are fantastic, but much higher production values. This channel's videos are more like my favorite thing: Someone passionate about something absolutely nerding out explaining it. Rock on Colin.
The speed in which this channel reached the 1M subs mark is just crazy to me! Even more than this build!
I love how the first video of yours I watched was you building a shed now I'm deeply invested in an elaborate underground layer.
The rain here in Southeast Ga has been relentless too. My bunker is an underground swimming pool at the moment. I guess it's pumping water for me till the dry season hits. Great video!
I know making content has been your thing for a while, but it still tickles me that you go thru the trouble of documenting such a massive project
Thanks for being awesome
Hi Colin , loving the UA-cam channel mate , as a fellow electrical / mechanical engineer who has worked on big projects over the years its easy to skip over the small details for an easier life and less hassle, but its worth the effort doing it right and not skipping over problems knowing you wont get any come back later on as your attention to detail is spot on 😃👍
Update #8#9and#10 please I’m suffering from withdrawals for lack of furz vids 🤦🏼♂️😭😭
Watched u for years. But blown away by your dedication to getting it right. Well done. Pete NZ
Amazing videos. Always feel like we get the genuine Colin and you seem to love what you do. We're not surprised you've gotten to 1 million because what you do us amazing!
At 10:54. Mate you might consider using phosphoric acid (H3PO4) to paint the rusty bits on the bulkheads and the overheads. The rust is converted to iron phosphate which is an tough inert protective barrier which prevents further oxidation of the steel. Actually, now that I come to think of it, there is another rust converter that uses tannic acid and some sort of organic polymer that does a pretty good job as well. You can then paint over it (if you're so inclined). Just a thought.
Love watching your tunnel progress! Can't wait to see the final product! 🙌🔥
For long-term protection against rust, you can use mineral machine oil, just wipe with a cloth soaked in oil and that’s it, over time the oil will solidify and create a reliable, durable film on the surface that prevents corrosion...
Any outlets for fittings work best when their length is at least ten diameters of the fittings...
I love watching stuff like this ,it's so easy to watch but couldn't imagine even thinking of taking on something like that,the work involved is mindbogling.You can't fault you dedication.I wonder how your wife and all the neighbours feel about the chaos?😁
UPDATE #8
There hasn't been a video for a month because Colin concreted himself into a corner and can't get out. 🤣
I've been following this whole project for a long time and I can't wait to see how it looks when its all done. Keep up the good work!
I don’t know why but this video just feels so whole some and personal thanks Colin
Absolute Legend, this Architect is loving it !!!
Hi Colin, First of all Congratulations 🥳 on your Million subscribers absolutely brilliant well done 👏 I have really enjoyed watching your Tunnel progress it is just amazing with how far you have got, I am really looking forward to the end result! 😊
It's awesome watching this from USA
Good Job, ColinFurze! Making progress! I would just move the gas line, also in case of a leak, the gas might get into the tunnel before you would even know about it. Enjoy your works!
watching you make
your wildest dreams come true is truly inspiring thank you for sharing your journey all these years love from the other side of the pond brother
I love this Channel -Most people cut the stuff like this but I want to be a welder or something with my hans and this lets me see what it is like and it makes me so happy to be able to see this stuff thx for the second channel
If you get something Fuzzy that doesn't Burn, like Rockwool?
You can use that to hold wires away from welding points to avoid worrying about melting stuff.
Good Idea to have some on hand for situations you might get into while having a welder.
I just saw you on You me and the apocalypse. I never knew you was apart of of the series. Of course you selling bunker kits cheeky Colin. First time watching that series and was like wait take that back I saw something for a second and low and behold it was you. Shouting at the TV its Colin, family saying who the hell is Colin made my day.
Reciprocating saw needs the right bi-metal blade and some Action Can CT-90 Cutting & Tapping Fluid. Always saw at an angle and gently move the saw back and forth to wear the blade evenly...
I love the lid you have made for it all. it's very satisfying to watch it be lifted up, if just a fraction of how much it will be to see the final thing!
if you are planning on pouring concrete over your wires - gass etc etc and not surround it with dirt.
Id put a tube around the best you can ( basicly just run a cut along a sewer pipe and wiggle the cables inn and strap it back up.
Will give you a nice little "service" canal later on if shit needs to be swapped or checked.
Just my 2 cents on the matter.
A bit late comment but better late than not at all!
I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the bunker videos! You helped me through a difficult time of bullying! I'm already 21 years old today and have been following the project for a long time!
So thank you Colin for this series!
Maybe we'll meet at some point! :D
Anybody else admiring his commitment to this project
A trick I use for removing rust and mill scale from steel is to take a balled up piece of steel wool and grab it with a pair of vice grips to use as a sort of scrub brush, then gear up and dip the steel wool in muriatic acid and do the obvious. The surface cleans up extremely fast, less than 5 minutes, then wipe or spray a baking soda/water mixture on to neutralize. This is obviously easier before you install it but I’ve done it in a similar application to yours.
He has a massive surface area to cover scrubbing it all with a pair of manky vicegrips.
I feel for you mate, we did the footings for our house this time last year, gotta love the glorious English weather! You're doing an amazing job, keep going it'll all be worth it
Yep ive used rubber fuel line as a make shift gromet but i normally either zip tie tight to the wire or tape the ends to the wire so it doesn't ever have the chance to slide or move off if where i need it
Hi Colin, down here in Kent the Southern Gas network is changing out all the metal pipes for yellow poly pipes (I believe it is something to do with adding a percentage of Hydrogen to the natural gas). Due to start on our street next week. If your area is planning the same in the future would it be worth talking to them now to change your gas pipes before you close that up and possibly save the drive being dug up again. In many cases they can push/pull the poly pipes through the old pipes. If they cannot do so they mole their way under your drive but yours will be light concrete.
AH!!! I really should watch the whole video before making a comment. You have allowed for swapping out pipes and cables. Something I should have realised having watched your excellent entertaining projects for a long time.
Colin is such a top bloke, as a fellow engineer and lover of the game I'd love to have a few scoops with him, fucking top bloke and great crack, deserves all the success he gets and is still very humble, massive respect colin
1:02
I love how Colin portrays getting a UA-cam Plaque
Love when I can pick out Look Mum No Computer in your vids.
8:39 some top tier asmr
I love how instead of switching sides around 9:00 Colin just flips the cutter around
I wish i had a fraction of this guys, drive dedication and motivation. Dudes a legend ✌🏽
It might be too late but I'd really like to see you build a little bit of metal trunking around the gas hydro and water in case you ever need to get to them to fix something. Be a total pain to have to knock out all that concrete just to fix a service
Colin, there is a specialized tool for removing rust instantly using a laser. It scary dangerous, i bet you would love it, plus it would make your rust removing work faster and easier.
Phosphoric acid on your rusty steel. DAB it on lightly, wipe off excess. Leave for 24 hrs. Once gone black, ok to do what you want. Great for when painting
Your enthusiasm and drive is great to watch, reminds me of how I use to be before my job distroid my soul
You're an absolute animal. Been watching since the beginning. Fantastic clean work.
I wonder if Colin's actually as excited/happy as he looks in these videos while he's working. If so, he's a lucky, lucky man, getting to love _both_ of his jobs (content creation + home improvement - and even if home improvement isn't really his "profession," it's certainly been a big part of what he does for a living these past few years, what with all the projects he's done under the house these past few years =P)
THANK YOU COLIN FURZE! Incogni is just the service I have been looking for!
Can’t be long now for another video? Surely 😂
When I was 50 I rebuilt a Kawa ZX1100, bought a two bed one bath, fixer upper. Now Im 66. No way could I do it again now. Plan accordingly. Eventually you will get tired and just want to chill. Your ego should be satisfied though, by then, your amazing abilility prooved it.
Milk in your tea? You silly Britts.😂
9:18 Now, take that spare bit of bar, make it a gold trophy, and give it to an up and coming inventor. The Furze Award
Colin you are super smart and creative, you give me inspiration. 🎉
Need to get that garage door made Colin.
I think you should make it look like a massive bank vault door.
Also it will make the house a bit more secure.
Keep up the awesomeness mate.
A million subscribers!! Wow...I celebrate every single one - what an honour that people want to watch our stuff!
Best to you, Colin, from rural Portugal.
Congrats on 1M subs! Seriously, how many second channels like yours have reached that milestone so quickly?!
When working out the front in the street like this, how do you not get a massive crowd of Furze fans stopping by to watch??
Hey Colin, I am sure you are busy with a bunch of things or maybe the weather is still terrible. I was wondering if maybe you could post a short to let us know how things were going and when we might see something new. As always hanging on your for your new vids, either tunnel or otherwise.
Colin Furze and LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER should do some crazy invention stuff
I loved that you marked the services
I freaking LOVE watching your work.
That is a lot of work for one man…you are impressive!
Collin: Concrete pour number three...
Also Collin: Holds up four fingers...
If I lived there I would be there everyday to help out you videos have given me a lot of ideas for what I’m doing when I get my own property.
The gas line people show up. Holy @#$_! This is amazing!
The neighbors gotta be just zooming by constantly now that you are street level. Questions and questions to distract you.
Love watching your tunnel progress! Can't wait to see the final product!
God your neighbours must hate you 😂 Thank you for your service. We appreciate it 💖😂
9:05, cutting with that grinder. I never lock the thing on, but hold it on with finger pressure. That way if it gets loose it will stop, not get hungry on your arm !
Just love your commentary, really makes it an enjoyable watch 😊
2.1M views! Can everyone start liking the videos and support Colin doing his mentally cool things please
You are a wildman , just insane what you do , you deserve the millions you make . I rate you with mark rober the glitter bomb genius. I thought my 32 ft cave I dug in granite rock was crazy & it is pretty sick but your on another level . Too much milk & tea ! Love it mate .
Hang in there, Colin! Awesome build!!!
hearing look mum no computer was a lovely wee youtube bonus
As an American and a HUGE Colin Furze fan, I'm damn proud to see your welding helmet.
Man this is exciting and i cant wait to see this finished or just the next step with the car elevator thing lol
Colin wow fabulous job you continue to be such an inspiration thank you
Cracking work Colin.
It’s so awesome to see the fair maiden Charlotte helping.
Good to see you posting again Brian!!
Great show Colin keep it up
Good to see you wearing some PPE! Now we'll have a longer lasting Colin!
