Underground Bunker Build, More concrete Tunnel Dave

[@JavonPlays]

I have followed this channel for maybe a year now and I just want to say you are doing amazing with that Bunker 😊

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for the support 😀

[@JavonPlays]

@@Tornado_Dave of course I bet when it's finished is will look so cool

[@simonm2092]

This is epic. Love this project! So well done Dave. Oh and the plug to plug was hilarious 😂

[@Tornado_Dave]

I thought it would go down well, I couldn’t believe it works 😂

[@paulscaff1000]

I started watching from Colin when he came up through the grass I've gone through and watched from the start keep up the good work

[@Tornado_Dave]

Thanks and I’m glad you are liking the content, plenty more to come 😀

[@jakobrebeki]

Nice bit of Concrete work Dave, it's looking great. Good luck with the tunnel corrections. I worked with a mate many years ago out in Kent building a wet well for farm field tile to drain into and then the water could be collected and then it could be sump pumped to a higher elevation. That build is well strong. Thanks Dave....

[@longleaf0]

Glad you've given yourself a little more time to do the shuttering before concrete arrives this time! Cheers for the video :D

[@Tornado_Dave]

Although it would of been dry if we had done it the day before 😂

[@dimitar4y]

Wood, Concrete and dirt. Lovely.

[@reg2590]

love it and you even hinted a round tunnel for the future; after the extension to the bungalow that is!

[@Tornado_Dave]

My dream is a round tunnel boring machine and round part sections that bolt together after the machine so it has to keep going 😀

[@dimitar4y]

@@Tornado_Dave the round boring machine is easy. The extraction of soil is the first problem. The wearing-out head is the second. Shuttering is easy though, just get a long flat steel sheet half-coiled, shove it in, it uncoils, boom done. Tack a nail or two, can't coil to collapse ever.

[@olliexx]

The main bunker your building should be like the big entrance building of all the tunnels and build a tunnel coming from every wall and they all meet back at the big entrance.

[@Tornado_Dave]

This is how my mind works 😀

[@DogSerious]

Coming along nicely!

[@Tornado_Dave]

Yes and this was a week ago, done loads this week 😀

[@TeeEllohwhydee]

I've been a senior electrician's apprentice for 50 years, man and boy. You need to change the yellow wire in the plug to a green one. Otherwise your house will burn down.

[@Tornado_Dave]

Just twist it around so it look’s green 😂

[@raytruesdell7873]

It’s coming along well Dave always looking to seeing more I like watching this kind of content 👏👏👏👏👏👍🍺

[@philnewman1110]

Another great episode, well done Dave, your a hard worker and the subscribers will come, this channel will be massive in a few months time. Well done!

[@gavinthompson2055]

Brilliant work Dave, love what you are doing. On your permanent standby power solution (once you sort the suicide wiring) - be careful with mixing a floating earth (from your battery pack) with multiple outlets. Victron has a good info sheet on that.

[@Tornado_Dave]

I probably need to look at that thanks 😀

[@bendordoy4815]

I started watching your tunnel/bunker vedios arfter you helped Colin Furze with his secret garage project and I glad I did i have enjoyed watching every single tunnel vedio.

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad you like them and thanks for the comment 😀

[@andrewsteele7663]

Good morning, Dave, great to see a new video. I hate to bang on about my claustrophobia, but I might be getting better, just from watching the channel. The solar is five stars⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐, with it running the sump and being for back up. I am in the process of adding a similar power unit to my place. Anyway, enough about my rubbish, thanks for another brilliant episode. And I have shared. Cheers

[@Tornado_Dave]

Thanks for sharing and glad you liked it 😀

[@kneeknocker1967]

Always good to relax and watch another fantastic video and see your dream come true

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad you enjoyed it 😀

[@brader901]

Brilliant there's always parts of these videos I can relate with. I used to have a set of 3 point linkage pallet forks. One day I moved 50 pallets of bricks, front wheels off the ground 😂

[@Tornado_Dave]

I thought I was going to drop all those supports, such a big job getting all that shuttering back out, the pallets with bricks on are 1.5 tonnes so am struggling to get the. In the hole 😀

[@rogerwertz]

More great progress, Dave. Thanks for the upload. Watching you lift and swing those stillages around so close to the house made me sweaty. I was starting to think the next video series was going to be a home restoration project. 😂

[@Tornado_Dave]

Been a lot closer to the house today with my big lift 😂 we are no longer working in the rain anyway 😀

[@GrahamDallas]

Another great video Dave, thanks for filming and sharing.

[@Tornado_Dave]

Thanks for the nice comment 😀

[@thatdudeinorange5269]

Always interesting to see when something is built, and even more so when its something mad like this 👍👍😮

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad your liking it, all these comments make it worth filming so thankyou 😀

Jim here in California USA. Keep up the great work. Been watching all of your videos.

[@briansummers1793]

i love this project can't wait to see the finished product

[@Tornado_Dave]

Me and you both 😂, made a lot of progress this week so I’m sure the next video will be a good one 😀

[@user-sy9je8yj7r]

Great episode Dave. Seeing your trailer loaded up with cars - what do you do when you’re not tunnelling? An intro ‘about me’ would be great!

[@synicyst9925]

I enjoy watching you do what I would be doing if I could.

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad you like it 😀

[@twin40dave]

Great video Dave , awesome work too 👏 you have seemed to have thought of everything, its a delight to watch 😊😊

[@Tornado_Dave]

Glad you enjoyed it, got some cool stuff coming in the next video already 😀

[@StephenButlerOne]

You should see if that Barry bank/ups has a battery setting to stop charging at 80% and start charging at say 40 to60 ish%. If you keep it at a 100% the battery will be toast within a year. This may still be in warranty, but you'll only find out it's toast when you need it. In that moment the warranty won't power your devices. There will likely be a menu called power management. Or a setting that says ups, this will put least stain on the batteries in in it.

[@jamesthompson4062]

Great job Tornado Dave 😎

[@michaelduarte2032]

Hold up.... Did I just see you connect a suicide cable to a live electric source before connecting it to the deadline of the bunker?

[@Tornado_Dave]

Yes I think you did 😂

[@michaelduarte2032]

@Tornado_Dave I'm so glad you're safe lol, keep on digging!

[@nicholasviney5975]

you need 2 more wells, then you could walk out your back door and say well well well

[@coachwarrenraven]

Paint seal the outside of the concrete, right? Then wrap the outside. Plus you have to have Two meters of rock or concrete is enough on top so gama radiation does not get through.

[@jayzo]

Move your battery into the bunker. Charging Lithium batteries in sub zero temperatures which we'll inevitably get here in the UK is very bad for their lifespan, it might even refuse to charge if it's designed properly. Also please eventually change that double ended plug, they're called suicide plugs for a reason - I'm not gonna bash you for a quick temporary solution but I would absolutely make sure that's dealt with as a priority. Some manufacturers of those battery banks also offer a changeover panel thing that integrates with your home wiring to safely facilitate the connection of the battery system, so it might be worth seeing if yours has this, or keeping that as just power for tools when you're too far from the house and get a system like the one by Anker or EcoFlow.

[@dimitar4y]

Crazy, difficult, if not even impossible project, But what if.... An underground pool. Or, "better", an underground oasis, right at the water level at the bottom of the well, so it's got an entire ecosystem.

[@glassbackdiy3949]

some footage of thrashing the 90 round an arena woulda been good Dave, never mind, bunker is comming on nicely

I should of filmed it, would of been good to put on when I took Kalab cooper round the track

You should have painted the concrete with tar paint to stop the damp

[@garysoap7925]

I think you should do it tram style

[@AmbientJoe]

loving your work! feel free to come and build a bunker in my garden! I'm local by the looks of it hahaha

Shall I bring the 3cx round 😂

after removing the shuttering; You need a portal gun

[@J273]

This maybe a daft question, apologies if so. Could your well get high enough to flood your tunnel and bunker?

[@fredz61]

Great stuff Dave i Was wondering if u were going too water proof it. Not many KZbin underground bunkers have it done. Must be costing a Bomb but u doing it right waste of time and money if u don't

[@Tornado_Dave]

Yes all waterproofing on now and will be in the next video 😀

[@iwantthemoonback4198]

Sorry if I've missed this... but why wasn't the middle of the floor concreted originally?

[@Tornado_Dave]

The base is just the wall foundations, not a floor if that makes sense

[@mrdfgale]

Are you not worried if the water level comes up high in the well, that the tunnel and basement flooded?

I have a pump in the well and it has only risen another bunker floor height twice in the last 10 years

just as you unplug your dodgy wiring I had a power cut ?
