Can I Pour a Concrete Hearth and Transport it 4 HOURS Away to Install at the Cabin??

[@elainemarie1473]

That puppers is determined to be the star of today's episode 😅 🐶 Give 'em head pets from me too 😊

Troy: In the first and foremost place it is not YOUR workspace! It is Timber's play/activity space. Now that we have that squared away (pun intended), it was obvious to me, that Timber wanted some attention, and a dog's needs and desires are more important than any human endeavor.

[@bryancondrey6457]

After you get the wall stones finished and like it, consider a clear sealer for the stone and the hearth. I think the concrete will continue to act like a sponge for a month or so so sealing it when finished can help prevent future cracking.

[@ronaldclemons5520]

Nice job Troy. It is really going to look nice when your river stone is finished. Love your dog. Reminds me of a yellow lab we had years ago. Always bringing us sticks to throw, so he could go find them. It is a reason why a dog is Mens best friend. Blessings

Good day. Off this subject. Researching old notes. Fermenting any product. Veges etc. Especially pig feed in your case refers. Salt, (a bit), in any fermenting process - stops bad bacteria getting in before good bacteria starts working. Regards. RSA.

I throw a chunk of Osage Orange wood in before I go to bed and fires good for 8-10 hours. Stuffs like coal, high heat and long burn times.

[@mariesheppard3750]

Nice job love the stove ,

[@mburke1211]

I enjoyed the video Troy. Timber is such a sweet pup - I have a similar companion that wants to be with me no matter what I'm doing. That little woodstove is quite a gem, and I really like the way the hearth stone and the stone surround is coming together.

[@zombiemaster123456]

troy you r fantastic. Fyi i cant imagine to many ppl not being ok with looking a timber more than your project

[@tealkerberus748]

I have a pair of two-wheel trolleys I built for shifting very heavy objects. I reckon the nice big pneumatic tyres I put on them would handle that doorway a lot better than the little castors on that casket trolley.

[@kevinblevins2612]

River rock should go up the same as tile ( I would think) So no wire should be needed. I rocked the masonry work on my foundation and had to lay a couple courses or 2 rocks high, then allow time for them to set up before sticking more. If one falls off from above it will knock the lower ones off! I only worked on it for a few hours a day on the weekends.

[@joeford7350]

Troy, you very talented, that saves a lot of money. Very good!

[@7StandsFarm]

Another great video thanks for sharing

[@DeanFamilyAcres]

Excellent recap and documentation. Could tell your excitement! Push forward, hope your family is well.

[@ledzepcleo]

Nice work Troy!

[@tealkerberus748]

Note to self: sand and crushed rock that have been sitting out in the rain will be wet and concrete made from them won't need as much water as usual.

[@Dan-oz4qb]

Nice job. I was concerned it would crack being so thin and heavy but it worked out very well.

[@Dan-oz4qb]

At 19:23 the supervisor seems annoyed at your slow pace of work. 😅

[@bwillan]

That's quite a large diameter chimney pipe for such a tiny stove.

[@robertduffy5805]

I don't see insulation behind it all, did you forget to throw some back in the corner. Don't forget to throw some behind it if you did.

[@RedToolHouse]

It is all insulated. R13

[@robertduffy5805]

@@RedToolHouse I"m sure you can't relate but I'm old and my eyes and memory are... What are we talking about again? Oh there's a squerrel. Have a great day!

[@jonathanrich4213]

I know nothing about fire safety. I have an old American Eagle stove I want to set up in my workshop, but I'm not sure what kind of buffer to give it to keep the shop from at some point burning down. Is drywall a good enough barrier? Is this cabin being built in an area that requires building permits?

[@PeaceIntheValley]

You don't let any of those grinding wheels go to waste! Are you happy with that stove? Do you think it Would it work well in a fifth wheel?

[@RedToolHouse]

Ha! No doubt. Run them till you hit the hub. Yes, I think it would work well in an RV. Just secure it properly.

[@ruthannjones5873]

Which video(s) discuss the stove itself.?

[@RedToolHouse]

It is in the cabin playlist

[@RobertJLessard]

I guess the dye didn't work out well? On my screen it looks standard concrete color.

[@middleway1885]

Noice~

[@brentonpickens1872]

Not a chevy guy anymore? 😂

[@JR-rx2ke]

What is the device with blinking lights hanging from your jacket?

[@RedToolHouse]

Satcom. We have no services up there as it is in the Greenbank quiet zone. This device allows me to communicate via text with home.

[@patricksoileau9246]

Yes you can just don't use black concrete dye it's pure carbon black lol rubs off and I know of no sealer to stop transferring the black , also never go less than 3.5" and rebar and wire. Lol

[@JohnWinsemius]

Troy do you answer questions? Last week I asked a very serious question about your red wattle pigs which I feel is justifiable and deserves a accurate answer.

[@RedToolHouse]

I try to answer them when I get opportunity.

[@erice9536]

Not very friendly dog you have there. ..... O)O)O)

[@tealkerberus748]

Watching you bending over like that to pick up a lump of concrete ... you only get one spine in this life. You might want to look after it better than that.
