Retaining Walls | How to Build Gabion Cages Using Spirals
มุมมอง 510หลายเดือนก่อน
Gabion cages are easy to build and perfect when you have limited access for machinery to dig footings for more conventional retaining walls. In this video I use up the remainder of my materials to come up another 40cm on an existing retaining wall. The additional retaining wall spans 430cm (long) x 40cm (high) x 35cm (deep). The height and depth were based on what materials I had left. When cal...

This is a full summary of a backyard transformation using timber retaining walls to landscape a slopy block. The end result is not only more functional but looks great too. You can watch the series in more detail in the a 6 part series. In these videos I share more of my decision making processes and techniques I used and why.

Landscaping with Timber Retaining Walls Part 1
Great job with the project! It was fascinating to see the process from design to testing. I’m sure the result will be fantastic after the final assembly and painting.
Interesting prototype! Have you seen any ready-made joggers with a similar solution for sale? Maybe you should patent this invention quickly 😉. I think people living in hilly or mountainous areas would love it. By the way, can I claim 5% of the shares in your future startup? 😄
I couldn't find any motorized joggers. I think I came across a pram with a small motor. There's definitely a market out there. Getting products patented and manufactured is no easy task. Not sure if I'm game to even try. Will be fun to get it working and jog the kids to school at least. Thanks for watching and taking interest. Cheers Rob
Coming along nicely! 👏
Great video Rob, thank you. Where did you come across the long spiral coils ? I haven’t managed to find the outside of kits
@@martinbarker7500 Thanks Martin, I’m based in Brisbane Australia. I bought them from a place called ANP metals. They call them helical/ spiral wire. Alternatively you can go with C rings ( hog rings) but you’ll need to hire a pneumatic tool use them. The tool is too expensive to buy as a once off. The cages worked out about half the price compared to the kits. Hope that helps 👍 cheers
@@DIY_Rob Thanks Rob, much appreciated mate 👍👍
Great job! The gabion cages are a smart solution, and your tips on cutting and bracing were really helpful. Keep up the awesome work!
Great video! I can see you have a lot of potential. I work on video editing and creating animations for social media. If you ever need help with your content, I'd be happy to assist. Wishing you success in growing your channel!
Thank you. It's just hobby. I do have another side business that I might need some animations done. Send me your details and I'll get in touch.
@@DIY_Rob Hi, always happy to help. Unfortunately, we can't exchange contact info in the comments. 😒 I noticed I couldn't find any contact details on your channel, but I think you know how to find mine and reach out to me. Good luck!
Spectacular job!
Thanks mate!
Could I ask what the dimensions of your posts and the boards you used for the wall? I’m in the states, and our dimensional timber looks way thinner than yours!
@@davidorionpaden Hi David, the post are 100mm x 75mm (~4” x ~3”). The sleepers are 200mm x 50mm thick (8” x 2”). I’d say 2” is probably the minimum thickness for retaining walls. If you building a retaining wall higher than 60 cm (~23“) I’d rather go with a steel post (I-beam) and clad it afterwards with timber to make it look like a timber post was used. You might also go up to 3” thick sleepers. How that helps 👍
I like your fence and nice video, given me some idea's for my own project. In the past when building fences in areas with restricted access, I have built the fence first with the posts, then lifted and dropped the fence into place, with post holes already dug out. Then concreted them.

Where can i buy this baking book?
Just search women’s weekly cake book. Probably amazon if you not in Australia.
Nice 👍
Times like these i got to say
Good song
Amazing to see it all come together. The before and after is incredible. Well done Rob!🥳
Nice step man
Making great progress here! So good to hear your thoughts and considerations with a big project like this 😮
This is great Rob!
