Hyperadobe Roundhouse FOUNDATION: Perfecting the Dolly Bucket System

[@sarahadkins6315]

My great grandfather was an Italian stone mason and he built a stone house for his family in Kentucky. He messed up a stone over the door for the balcony. Every time he went out he shook his fist at it and said son of a b stone. Decades later the family all does that as a tribute to him. I have fond memories of my tiny grandmother doing it. Screw ups and challenges can bring a family together long after you are gone.

[@paulas_lens]

What a great memory and story.

[@TinyShinyHome]

I love this :)

[@debradoucet8847]

❤❤ wonderful story.

[@hevchip741]

Lovely

[@JamesCouch777]

Yep, I know the feeling very well 😊.

Hi there, the swale is a long term investment, and will take years to see meaningful changes. Playing the long game :)

[@ShaneSwart-e8h]

Was just curious to see the progress thanks for the response.

[@elainemartin7141]

Your kids are getting the education, that many of us wished we had given our own children. They will lead the way😊

[@paull1954]

All of your young adults helping you are amazing. The support they give you to the build is to be commended. While financial support speaks volumes your entire family need to have a huge shout out for their contribution to the channel.. Well done all you are doing an amazing job.....

[@jeanannoshea809]

I keep on thinking how invested your kids are going to be in this house and I keep on imagining your kids bringing their families home for the holidays with grandma and grandpa. Think how wonderful that will be.

[@MagicBeans.StarlightDreams]

This.

[@marilynlautner2454]

I love the aerial view of TSH. It pulls together everything you have accomplished. Kudo’s to the videographer.

[@shermdog6969]

Im impressed with how long that harbor freight cement mixer has lasted.

[@maryhart637]

GO TEAM!!👏💛🙌 You guys are such great troubleshooters and problem solvers💚💚 I love to watch the process🤗🤗Keep on the positive side of life...love Ashley's attitude🍀🧡🧡👋👋👋👋

[@jo-ellenbass2261]

Nothing like a snuggy kitty on a chilly day. All those little niggly things along the way -- lots of problem solving. But you got this!

[@basiljackson3829]

Two ideas: 1) Instead of the pipes on the trolley, screw a caster roller onto the wood. Because the wheel turns, there should be no friction. If you use two (left/right), it would provide a better fit for the bucket and allow some height adjustment by adjusting the distance between the two wheels. 2) When adding one bag to the end of another, wrap the first bag in newspaper first. The second bag slides easier over the paper than a bag. When done, pull the newspaper out.

[@MC-qb1jg]

Hang in there. Your hard work will bring a major reward. Your home, built by you!

[@jrnamida5470]

Your house is going to be awesome as a result of the work you are accomplishing...

[@NicoleHoltActress]

It's growing!

[@susanchapman4140]

Just love watching your family work together. What wonderful memories you are making!

[@brendabelcher3197]

I have an idea for your dolly bucket system : attach a wire to one edge of the board on the dolly and thread it through the pvc pipe and attach the wire to the other edge of the board. This way the pipe will roll as the bag material comes off the bucket and hopefull prevent chaffing and tears to the bag material. I love watching you guys live your dream,

[@u2cancatchme]

❤❤❤❤❤❤ What a Devine place to be. Freedom with creation. Those views are so incredible. So love how your family works together. Yahusha love's your heart 💞 sharing your wonderful adventure, sending love and light ❣️

[@rachellopez3259]

I love how well you all work together! Loving too the progress of the big house! My Sister gave me a Tiny Shiny Home T Shirt for Christmas! I was beyond thrilled! We love you guys over here in Kansas! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TinyShinyHome]

That's awesome!

[@uuufffttaa]

I AM SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU BUILDING YOUR HOME. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL YOU FINISH IT. I AM REALLY INTERESTED IN HOW YOU DECORATE THE INSIDE.

[@Lee-xd1pl]

Happy New Year! I enjoy the landscape, sky, animals, problem solving, teamwork and progress!

[@darlenevjohnson5237]

Nice Hat!

[@angelheart4498]

To solve the tearing problem, use PVC with rebar run through it. This will act as a roller while holding the bucket away from the dolly.

[@TinyShinyHome]

The PVC isn't what's causing the tearing. It's the wood.

[@Linda-it6ci]

Can we have a lookiessseee the chook house with the girls running around the garden bit...ta darlings ....

[@MagicBeans.StarlightDreams]

Pleeeeeease

[@moniquevelasco20]

Great job guys!!! Doing so good. Keep it up. Love and be safe!🤗😘🌼🇻🇪

[@MimiMcWil]

You could put the pvc through the foam so the foam rotates.

[@TheHavasu_77]

Coming along nicely you guys!! I’m so excited for this!! 🙌🏻❤️😁

[@georgewhitehouse8630]

❤congratulations, you can see how big your foundation is

[@JustMuah57]

looks really great, good work on figuring out the bucket system really enjoying the process Your family definitely works great as a Team!! sending positive energy

[@CCSCOOKING]

Install two wedges between the bucket and the back board to give the offset you need.

[@deano.7533]

I would try pushing the PVC through the center of the foam and mounting them together on the plywood. That should give you more strength and stability and also give you the softer surface area that you're looking for as well. In fact... If you stretch the foam over the PVC you could leave 4 or 5 inches of bare PVC sticking out on both sides of the foam so you can more easily attach the PVC to the plywood at both ends. Take care. sincerely, Dean O. :-I

[@user-rx3ew9fq5r]

Looking good so far!

[@michaelrust7614]

I was thinking of a roller skate attached to the board to push bucket away and would turn allowing bag to roll on out without catching.😮

[@Mickey-bd4hi]

Another good video 😀

[@saintracheljarodm.holy-kay2560]

Getting there! Question were you going have a concrete floor because the next couple of courses could act as forms because it would be the easiest time to get it done. Just on the house part and hold of on the patio court yard. Which the courtyard would be a good place too set up the mixing stations. Because you have opening too access it from both sides. Food for thought. Have a good week until next time, and God bless amen.

[@TinyShinyHome]

We wanted to, but concrete prices have skyrocketed. We'll have to figure it out later and focus on the walls for now.

[@rudyfisher7660]

As many rocks, as there is in the desert, you can't go find a few rocks or you were oxygen's where you could stack them on top of stuff and then you'd reuse them to use them or use them

[@TinyShinyHome]

If we had rocks we'd use them :) Not that many on our property that aren't being used for something else.

[@BonnieHaley]

Hello 👋 love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@MagicBeans.StarlightDreams]

If i had only half the "eye" that Ashley has. Her knack for de or and design are right on. P.s. team heating the buckets with a torch coulllld have possibly worked. Women gotta stick together. 😂😂😂

[@veeemit9719]

How many layers do you think it will take to get to roof height?

[@TinyShinyHome]

About 30 splitting the difference between high and low sides.

[@barrylitchfield8357]

When I watched your last video you posted of building a bridge to go over the bags as they go above ground level. It seems the top section between the two ramped ends was too short to span the trench. You decided to backfill the sides of the trench to support the bridge. It seems like modifying the bridge top section to span the existing trench would be more appropriate. I assume you're going to have to relocate the bridge a few times to access the entire house. What happens when the bridge has to go over higher and higher walls? Even longer and longer ramps will be required! I'll be tuned in to see how that will be accomplished. Thanks for your continued great videos and family dynamics. A great crop of kids y'all raised there.

[@TinyShinyHome]

We'll be building 3 ramps, and each will be permanently installed to go over a specific door frame that will get us access to various parts of the walls. The trenches will all be backfilled once we get above ground so no point in making the ramps bigger than they need to be. It was lots of planning, but I think it'll all be worked out in the next video :)

[@barrylitchfield8357]

Okay then, I guess I missed that part of the video. Another consideration... Measure the width of your wheelbarrows! I was planning to use my wheelbarrow to go through a 36" gate opening. I ended up removing a fence panel to access my back yard with a 40" wide wheelbarrow! Barry

[@freefahren]

Hang the white PVC tube on a horizontal string so it rolls with the bag lowering on the Dolly?

[@TinyShinyHome]

No need, the plastic on plastic slides great. Just need to make sure it doesn't touch the wood.

[@freefahren]

@@TinyShinyHomegood for you champions! Great weeks hard slog. Keep going!

[@Bildgesmythe]

A cat to keep you warm 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@cwmiller123]

When you get high enough will you pour a cement floor and then run electrical outlets when you get high enough for that?

[@christic769]

Just a suggestion, before you backfill on the inside, would it be a good idea to put conduit in there for some electrical?

[@Bildgesmythe]

I believe they have plumbing and electrical already done? The PVC pipes sticking out?

[@TinyShinyHome]

Electrical will be in ceiling.

[@bruceevans341]

Why the hardware cloth?

[@TinyShinyHome]

To keep rodents from getting into our walls. We have never experienced that issue but know people who have.

[@cassandrabitterwolf5276]

can you please send me the link to the other dolly bucket video and where did you get the fill buckets? love the new house

[@TinyShinyHome]

We have a few videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3zYmJxrmtyDf6M and kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zni3mIGjiNKto9U Buckets are just 5 gallon buckets from the hardware store. Scoops animal scoops from tractor supply.

[@michiganjfrog5714]

[@SJC49]

I think you two should work for NASA! When the house is done you could launch that thing into outer space (you’ll probably be sick of it by then anyway). 🤪😍🇨🇦

[@offgridsolitude]

How is Lowes delivery? Did they do a good job? Did you pay the standard delivery fee or was there any kind of surcharge?

[@TinyShinyHome]

Lowe’s is great. Get on their pro plan and delivery is much cheaper.

[@phylliswebber1341]

to bad you cant make pvc roll with the bags,,like apaper towel holder if you understand me cant explaine right

[@TinyShinyHome]

We have the bags on a roller for measuring and cutting.

[@SeanBlader]

New hat Jonathan? We need details.

[@TinyShinyHome]

[@denslatt]

Attempting to get some idea of how long this construction will take. If 2 layers of bags took one week, how many total layers are their in the entire build? Seems mind boggling at this point.

[@TinyShinyHome]

At least a year just for bags.

[@patriciawalsh8234]

[@numbersvibrations]

TSH your kiddos are pioneers. They are experiencing something monumental. They are literally building sustainably. Your family is so hardworking like families used to be. It’s beautiful. Very inspiring. ❤

You all do such great job working together. Bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@sandigray6247]

It’s so exciting to see the bags building up! Looks like you got all the kinks out of the bucket situation! You guys are so smart! Those kitties!! Love seeing them! Keep at it! Love ya! 💕

[@paulas_lens]

During the drone shots I can picture the house rising up from the high desert floor. That recap video is going to be epic. One step, one bag, one shovel-full, one day at a time. Thanks for sharing the journey.

[@constancepullen810]

I've wondered for the past year. Your children are getting closer to adult size . Where do you all sleep? Privacy can be a concern especially in the teen years.

[@christineingram55]

It’s exciting now ,because it’s starting to rise from the ground.You will overcome each hurdle as you come to it!you are a great team and you all work together and make magic happen.When all this is done,you will have a unique home and the pride of knowing you all did it together.No matter how you house is built,it’s family that will make it a home,and all those memories and times you spent together creating it…Love n hugs to you all 🥰

Next step after the pvc might be to put a bar through the pvc so it rolls freely ... like toilet paper. Hey that was odd. I've been subscribed for a long time. I just looked at the button and I was not subscribed. Weird.

Does the company that makes the bags have a fill bag dolly system the sell?

[@TinyShinyHome]

Nope

You should ask if you can barrow the tractor from your friends who make their houses like you I can't think of names sorry

[@vnez7338]

Good job!!! It looks like a spaceship from above.

[@poetmaggie1]

I think the 2 wheels barrow is cool, looks more stable for heavy loads.

[@vicky-akastichr-davis4676]

Being a sewer, of fabrics, not poop shoots, I would have tried to sew the two bags together.

Why not screw in one of those mini wheels to your backboard
