I admire true craftsmanship passed down through the generations. When I was a teenager, I worked with my uncle, who was a true craftsman. I hated that we arrived earlier (often working in the dark) than anyone else and stayed late to fix any imperfections. Of course, later in life, the pride he took in all his work is what I most admire about him. I am thankful he passed down the value of a solid work ethic and to take pride in any work I do. Thanks for the video.

what a great piece of knowledge there. i have watched the three parts and got a few questions for you. would be great if you could help me out. could i use this kind of dry wall as a stone foundation or is it more advisable to build it with lime mortar if i want to build a stone foundation? where i live people usally use sandstone for building foundations which i guess is a lot weaker than the solid stones in your video. is it possible to use sandstone for dry walling?

I can’t find my original comment on here to edit it, so I hope it actually made it as a post. I forgot to mention that the cultures I work with did not have any metal tools of any kind. That makes their precision stonework even more impressive. So if my other comment is not on here, about me being an archaeologist in Mexico, sorry about that. Check out Teotihuacán. Truly amazing!

I can't find your other comment sadly! I'm always impressed with the stonework in Central and South America. One day I'd love to have a go at trying to replicate it using the methods set by archaeologists such as yourself. If they worked in any similar way to me then half of the work is done by picking the right stone and thinking hard about the stone choice to make the stone shaping as easy as possible. One of the most impressive things about that kind of stonework though is moving the stones and sometimes moving them a long, long way. Really impressive! And certainly not done by aliens!!

@@drystone-tv sorry I am just now seeing your reply! You are so right about all of that, and I am so glad to hear that you are a sensible person who realizes that the human brain has been the same size for about 40,000 years, and everybody had the same problems we do today. They were looking for answers to them, and continue to do so. Nobody needed aliens to help them along. 🤣👽🛸

I am really interested in learning this and applying it in my landscaping craft here in Canada. I do have a question about frost heave, though. Do you deal with that where you are? Will this exact style work in an environment where freeze and thaw happens for 6 or 7 months of the year? Thanks also looks great.

There is no frost heave in the UK but I do have friends in Canada that deal with that all the time. The person who you should ask is a guy called Dean McLellan in Ontario. He'll be an expert in frost issues.

I’m doing right now a 70 foot length 2 foot high 16 inches wide drywall. On my property I have a farmers old rock dump in my backyard. From when this was a cow grazing field, but now has a home on it I went to the quarry yard where they were charging close to $400 a pallet of Pennsylvania flat Fieldstone, I rocked out about 5 pallets in my backyard getting busted granites and fieldstones with a shovel and a yard tractor and a trailer on back. Save myself about $2000 worth of rock. By humping it out of my backyard.

What kind of changes to the foundation would you make for a heavier load bearing structure? exg, two story home with 2nd floor bath tub, kitchen ect. Will it still be a standard extra 6 inch wide foundation, and just dug deeper to more solid bedrock? It would be cool to see a video for stone home foundation. Awesome videos!

You work efficiently, chiseling the rock and using the chippings as fill. Wish I had that kind of stone you have, I just have bowling ball granite. Hard to work with.
