Building Primitive Shelter From Nothing With my Son

JD and i spent some time in the woods building a primitive shelter from deadfall tree limbs and whatever else we could find just for fun. Should he go camping in it?

[@blodhemn413]

I vote Yes for more random, fun stuff like this.

[@Bobby72501]

I 2nd tht.

[@loose-arrow-garage]

You're not just building a primitive shelter with your son, you're building memories! The dog running away with the tree limb; priceless!

[@josephcetar9202]

I grew up without my dad but did the best that I could for my kids so they would never know that experience. You are raising a fine son and setting a great example for him and everyone else. Great video!!!

[@user-cd8yk3gu1w]

Me too. Wish I would of had Dad time like JD

[@Bobby72501]

Me 3. Mine was there but we was ALWAYS arguing bout something. I often wondered why we never got along. 4yrs after my mom died from cancer, He DISOWNED me and my family. I hve 2 boys and I tought my youngest tht money didn't grow on trees and tht he would hve to work for what he wanted like I did. We DID help him get started like my mom did with me. Now he's got a pretty good job, 2 basic college course diplomas, his own truck at the age of 19. I think we done OK.

[@careysavage]

Yea it would have been good my dad was around.but when he got off work he would go to the bars in Athens GA with his whores getting drunk then coming home wonting to beat up on me and my mom . But he made a man out of me and when I got big enough he didn't come home wonting to beat up on no. One any more.

[@dreamboards1056]

I'm a father of 2 "boys" now young adults. Everyone "ooo it's such. A good memory for the boys" and yes that is correct. For me those times and memories are absolutely priceless. Make them every chance you get.

[@michaelkirkwood3316]

you are awesome dad me and my dad did things like this cars and all that stuff I miss him every day but I think about memories when I watch something like this so thank u for stirring up those memories and the one s that jd will remember just I am remembering about my dad things you will never forget

[@panda_of_trash7806]

After always seeing JD being the most mature one. It's great to see him out being a kid! Great job on the shelter!

[@jont0315]

True JD always the voice of reason🤣

[@docdetroit146]

2 thumbs up for the bush running across the field

Oh Hell Yeah boys, Need us a Pole Barn Survival Channel now

[@millguygarage4875]

This video made my week ! So awesome to see a great father & an awesome son bonding !🤗

[@Easy_Skanking]

It's not a childhood without building a fort or treehouse in the woods! Camp in it, if you dare! Your pup definitely needs to be part of the adventure. 😁

[@ShawnR718]

Man this made my day, reminded me so much of my childhood playing around in the woods with my buddies it’s awesome to get to see you two just having fun and making memories

[@BradLowrance]

Nice to see a kid being a kid.

[@sbbt261]

Brings back childhood memories

[@gregwhite7957]

More random stuff is good especially with ur family. From one father to another. Happy Father’s Day to you Dalton. Take care and stay safe.

[@billbong156]

I would watch more stuff like this

[@pilgrimsgarage]

This my friend is father son time…I love it!!

[@TnCountryBoy]

JD, you're way further along than I at your age. Hope the door faces the east and a little south. Storms most always come from north/west. Also. I hope the wind doesn't flex the trees enough to drop those first wall supports. Great seeing a Dad and Son doing things making memories Dalton.

[@maryhall6584]

Very cool project. Nice old fashion kid project plus truly a life skill. He learned more building that then he did in a year of science. Great job both of you. Dalton you are an awesome dad and jd you have no fear of the challenge and learning. Keep it up

[@dennisbrown2571]

A day in the life of 2 youtubers. Stuff like that builds memories.

[@kennethvanallman4210]

I like the idea of you doing more with JD that's awesome 💯😅

[@allenthompson4714]

Can't wait to see what JD does to improve/build to it over the summer!

[@guntherhammerhoid3454]

Great to have this as a backup for when you lose the shop

[@TazR6]

It must be such a joy to be able to do things like this without leaving home. To have that as your back yard is incredible to me. The TreeKIA. Inspired. That had me literally LOL.

[@grayghost75]

Very cool... now all you need is a car/truck hood for a roof... want to see more please .

[@billbong156]

This is great. I never done this with my dad but i have built many of these..great memories. Thanks for the video 👍

[@dalesmith112]

So refreshing to see a youth of today doing things I grew up doing... building forts, wrenching on old cars and just generally being a kid. Especially since he's doing stuff that doesjt involve a cell phone or a game console. 😁

[@sjtheoldone]

Always nice to see father and son just enjoying some time in the woods 👍

[@Oldschooljake1979]

Dude I think it's great doing things like this, and showing how you can survive, all you need is a brain and time. When I was young, I had fort's built all over the mountain side where I live. And today some are still there. Dang, that was 35 years ago.

[@2ndCavTrooper]

JD needs his own channel, kinda like Derek's son has little grip Garage

[@panikrev175]

2:22 When Dalton says that, I cant help but picture a full-size Ford sedan door held to the tree branch posts with self-tapping screws

[@rorasaurus14]

There was no better way to spend a nice day growing up than with knives, axes, sticks, and limitless possibilities

[@kaiiorg]

Hell yeah! Re: more outside the barn: It'd be fun to watch, but only if the recording is part of the fun and doesn't detract from the father/son time.

[@rexkean]

Was wondering if ya lost the shop... house... everything, and had to go primitive!😂 Great father/son time

[@PoiTEE]

these videos are awesome... JD and Jess are a huge part of the channel.. glad you include them.

[@Bubbaxlt]

This is awesome, I wish a parent would have done things like this and the automotive side with me. Love all your content, keep up the awesome work.

[@admiralrustyshackleford119]

What a lucky kid, got woods to mess around in and cars to play with. Reminds me of spending weekends with my old man when i was a kid in 80s and 90s, getting to do all the stuff my mom wouldnt let me do at her place. The little dude will probably be president someday, being the only member of his generation that can function without a phone in his hand 24/7.

[@roadsidegarage69]

hey maybe don't have that negative of an attitude towards the people of his generation, i know plenty of them who don't even have phones and all they do is work on stuff or farm all day

[@FORCE_PBC]

@@roadsidegarage69I think the optics depend on where you are from. Kids around here are useless. Couldn’t pry those phones out of their hands with cash. Let alone “let’s build something”. Thank god we never had phones as kids. Or at least I didn’t. What an alien thing that would have been.

[@MrStilleogrolig]

this is fliping awesome keep it up more jd and dad adventures

One of my favorite books. Just read it again last winter. [Edit]: BTW, it's a free download at the Gutenberg Project, along with many other 100+ year old books where the copyright expired now.

[@Rustic-N-Rusty]

This is stuff a son never forgets . Good on both you guys for getting out there and doing it. Nature and cars are a hell of a combo 🤟 fun content as always boys

[@bigospig]

JD shows up with a load of branches. The neighbors wonder where their favorite trees went.😆

[@stevelangston2359]

I vote 👍! More adventures

[@braxtonnelson5375]

I very much enjoy seeing you and J. D. spending time together. My son and I have always spent time together whether working on cars or doing household projects. The only thing that has changed is that he (38) does the work, and I (66) am the helper now... and that suits me just fine!

[@CapeBretonOutdoors]

sweet video glad you and JD making great memories , u rock dalton !

[@alwynemcintyre2184]

What a great place for a kid to grow up, lot's of things he can learn and experiment with.

[@JamesDavis-to1hn]

Great father son project.

[@michaelsimmons6138]

So glad to see that JD just doesn't sit inside playing videogames. He knows how to work on cars and now he can build shelter if need to next fire with fire starter no matches or lighters 😂😂 but really these are the things he will tell his children good job Dad 🙏🙏👍👍👍

[@MrCabooodle]

you're an awesome dad, this is all stuff any kid wish they could do with their dad

[@freemanjackmsiradio]

A man is best measured by the character of his son(s). JD gonna have you brimming with pride (it's ok, you don't have to tell him!)

[@FORCE_PBC]

Feeesh and JD rule!! I have a little girl and you can imagine what she says when I’m like “let’s build a fort”. Keep it up JD!! Being a kid in the woods is an awesome way to grow up. That can be anything. A smoker, a fort, a spot to hide during a paintball game or just a spot for feeesh to dig for rocks. Man I miss doing that stuff with my friends as a kid.

[@toddreiter3270]

It's like "castle Byers" on Stranger Things Good work JD

[@EazymoneyBicch]

Man, I love random videos like this. Takes me back to my childhood with my grandpa. God i miss those days. Cherish em while u can

[@Johnsmusic416]

Some awesome quality father and son time!! You should sign him up for baseball, we always had a great time with the kids in baseball and you meet a lot of great people too!!

[@stephenhawke6324]

its good to see you and your son spending time together not just doing car stuff keep doing what you are doing

[@paulhardman2515]

Super cool! I remember building a tree fort when I ws around JD's age. I used an old pallet and some random lumber. My dad was mad I didn't ask if I could use the lumber but he was impressed by my ingenuity and resolve. I used the heck out of that think until a wind storm knocked it out of the tree. I hope JD has as much fun as I did!

[@johnkoelliker8480]

I am interested in seeing more random stuff like this. Just letting you know.

[@chillwillrocco]

Looks like a good fort! I hope you guys keep working on it and camp out there sometime.

[@outdoorsjoe]

The dog running away with the big branch and chasing after the branches hanging off the car had me cracking up. 😆 Looked like a fun time with your son.

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

Yes ! So there is hope after all ! More sons and Dads should be building stuff in the woods these days. I pretty much spent my childhood doing exactly this in the woods behind my neighborhood. Hell yea JD ! I love the homemade off-road car !!!!!

[@ThomasthEEngineR]

Keep it coming!! This time on “Outside the Primitive Pole Barn”

Great seeing kids doing this instead of being on an Ipad

Dalton, that's awesome! You and JD are a great team!

[@dave.harmon]

First class dad skills!

I like the wall idea. Couple of Hobo Freight free tarps and whatever flavor of zip ties are on sale would make it almost weatherproof.

[@jeffreyanderson5304]

It's so very awesome to see a farther and son building a shelter in the woods I really enjoy both of your channels

[@kirk467]

Cool looking shelter guys, even your dog is helping! lol 🤣😂🤣 Yeah JD, if you build a fire inside then you’ll have to deal with smoke in your eyes! 🤦🏼 Ole dad is right, fire outside the barn! lol 🤣😂🤣 Thanks for sharing JD and DALTON, say hi to JESS for me!

I would love to see more of these types of videos. It is so heartwarming watching you and JD doing father son projects. You boys keep up the good work. That shelter will be amazing!

Waiting on the side of the road in pouring rain while my freind gets here with a jack, this'll work good to keep me entertained 😂

Good luck!

[@gregorybarth930]

The big question..where is the jack that's supposed to be in the vehicle? Hope the rain quit by the time it arrived

[@RichTexas82513]

@@gregorybarth930 couldn't get the truck jacked up high enough with it, Chevrolet didn't account for a higher axle with the 2500HD compared to the 1500, and he was headed down the same road anyway

This is a brilliant departure from your usual stuff. Love the cars, the laughs and the no budget fixes. OMG 😱 don't lose the shop!!!! Lol. But I totally love you and JD doin stuff together.

[@xnakxx]

best times of my life was doing stuff like this with my son.

[@toyota22risking]

When I was a kid, all us neighbor hood youngins built a massive shelter in the woods. We'd all sneak beer from the refrigerator at home and stole cigarettes from our parents. We even had nudy magazines up in there😂

I think it's awesome the way you guys get to spend time together. Just from the outside looking in I would say JD is having a better upbringing with his father DALTON then most other kids his age gathering faith,skill,n knowledge
