Mashallah 😊

Careful not to let the wood get too wet!

Oh man I’m jealous you all got some snow! I’ve been praying for snow because it’s great for tracking deer, but so far we’ve just had rain and temperatures just above freezing. Do you feel better prepared this winter than last winter? Little Remy is so cute with the dinosaur jacket!

Got fingers crossed that you get in before the big 'DUMP."

I’m chuckling about your “that’s a lot of snow” when you know you’ll be getting a bunch more. Part of Manitoba (near my hometown) yesterday got almost a foot of it.

So pretty that’s why I love winter

Remy looks very handsome in his Dino coat!

How many cords did he deliver? Do you have a utility sled to transport with? Perfect to move that stack where you need to. Remember to tarp the top courses of your stacks.

Yeehaa - time for a braai😂😂😂😂😂😂

Oh the waiting is so frustrating. Damned mud.

I’m not sure if it would work.. but if you could each take a side with a tarp, you could drag a fair bit of wood at a time.

Wish it a quick freeze for you two and get the trailer parked.

Looking forward to seeing your build and also your wood heater too.

Got my fingers crossed for the Big Freeze. You guys are amazing!!

Winter is coming. Hugs.

A corduroy road!

Nice road start guys keep it going looks great

Awesome recipe! I took the advice from someone in the comments and added a little almond extract and that just made this recipe perfection. My husband is on his second glass and the syrup hasn’t even cooled.

Good idea for the road and happy Thanksgiving you two hope you have a great time tonight

Wow such low temps in the early fall? Brrrr! Snug as a bug in a rug - back to your Granny Sheila! Thats what she always said! Love the name of the style of packing the road - corduroy road? Vastly better than the yellow brick road!🤣🤣 great you got to see the northern lights!🥳. We saw the southern aurora twice while we were still living in Tasmania - it pretty amazing to see isn’t it! Go the bobotie! Enjoy thanksgiving🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

♥

Love it!! Your new road looks very exciting!!

You guys are really coming along there. Things are coming together. Love it.

Cool idea

Sorry I’m late

Brilliant idea! I love how you're using locally sourced wood. I've built things with it and it's absolutely uniquely beautiful and strong. Thanks for sharing

How much for the bucket

It's nice, but too much fancy work with cutting bottles, when you could just use any plain surface of foil, bag or any plastic really.

This is something to be made when the apocalypse hits and all there is are scraps of materials to use. Instead of screws, fasten the wood by using thin strips of the plastic bottle tied around the joints, then heated to tighten up. Otherwise, with the grid still up, just get yourself $3 worth of plastic drop cloth for painting and you're done in minutes.

Could you just use a piece of tarp instead?

Awesome 👍

Please make a safer non-PET or no-plastic version with non-porous stand that lasts longer than this version someday.

Only improvement/ suggestion is to get the actual barrel off the ground with blocks, rocks or something. I know if it’s in contact with the ground critters will tunnel under& create problems, but also every catchment system plans I’ve ever found hadsaid the container needs to be off the ground (without saying why). Otherwise, looks like a good starter system.

Basically a great job basically(!!!). Djpn remember - a boer maak altyd a plan! Showing your true colours - nice South African boytjie!! Think it is fantastic for your water collection and also for getting rid of landfill 🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏

You just gave me the idea. I have wanted to catch rain water a long time now but always think I have to do things in a big way. Well I’m excited to do something similar to this.. Thanks for the demonstration and I have tree limbs everywhere and I might make a mini scale one with small soda bottles just because I have a lot of them. Haha!

This is amazing!!

Your idea is ingenious! loved watching the water dropping down into the catchment area.

Great idea for a way to re-use\upcycle what woyld otherwise be trash and turn it into a practical & useful means of gathering "free" water! 👍🐻👍

I can’t believe how much work you guys have done! Driving down a road you built yourselves must give you an incredible sense of accomplishment. Can the truck turn around at the end or do have to reverse? Any update about the snow plowing?

You all are making such good progress!

Awesome great jobs you two so happy for you

Yay!🥳🥳🥳Almost actually on the property!🎉 Glad you guys got another ‘game changer’ to start improving things for you! & both B-days coming up....🤔hmmmm...😉🎁🎁....Brother, glad it’s coming together after how down you sounded last time.

I have the All Power station and I love it!

Not on the property yet, but can see it from your latest stop!!!

Cool!😊

This is so exciting!! You are almost there!! WELL DONE!

Great to see things really starting to come together.

What distance have you managed to move camper?

That'll be a fuel savings. I've got the jackery and it allows panels to be put together in series - enough power to run a table saw

Thank you so much. I wanted to make Butterbeer from Harry Potter, but I needed cream soda, and I could not find it locally. Luckily, I stumbled upon this video.
