You're some boy Danny. Lucky people to have you on board. Top notch work. Very interesting project.
I live in Florida and would love something like that here!! Beautiful. ❤❤❤❤
I'll bet there are some earth mounds somewhere in Florida that the natives built that would love a renovation like this one.
Absolutely amazing upload a brilliant build of the gable hope you got a mulled wine! Thanks for uploads🤙
I’m up in Scotland on the east coast I’m a bricklayer but work for a heritage team for the council re consolidating old churches and church yard walls in Lime if you’re ever needing a hand when over in mull give me a shout got my own van and tools be great to help you out and learn more from you cheers John
"Deep fried mulled wine"🤣.
🔥🔥🔥👍
Learn a lot from these videos. I've started doing lime pointing because of your videos. I'm in the north Yorkshire dales so it's all lime pointing around here
Lovely job 👍🏻
Cracking video Dan. Love these videos 👍🏻
Cheers Denz. They were a lot of fun to make! Shame about the sound. Lessons learned though!
Aye i think you need a mic 🎤 up there mate 👍🏻
@@DoctorDenz Bought one after that shit show introduction. Shame it couldn't be heard as it was a decent one too. The hurricane can blow when we are next up as the new bluetooth mic will be able to hear a midges fart in the wind.
howcome you're not concerned that the wall won't breathe by using cement to back point?
great videos by the way
The constructional mortar wasn't full beds so moisture can find it's way out of the stonework in gaps and cracks between the substrate. I'm back up there next week to lime point the building so it'll be a functional, active wall when it's pointed up.
Are the clients understanding? Did they pay for a new hop up?
@@sgfelectrical734 The clients were very understanding about the collapse. It was for the better anyways as the gable would have needed taking down stone by stone to rebuild it. New videos of the repoint of the bothy should be up later on this week. Stay tuned!
Great job in difficult conditions, whereabouts on Mull is this ?😀
This is down on the Ross. The cliffs above Ardalanish bay.
Great video! Is the intention for this to be a public access bothy?
Thanks freckle1998.
The bothy is on the pilgrims route to the holy island of Iona. There is no other shelter for the next 15 miles of coastline so if you contact the owners at the farm then I'm sure they won't have an issue with folk stopping in the bothy.
