I Built a STONE & WOOD Survival Bushcraft Hut in the Forest

- In this video, I will build a stone-cum-wood survival bushcraft shelter in the forest. It took me a while to find out the location where I was to build it. The location was great as there were tall trees, running water, plenty of wood for fire, and moreover, stones to build the hut. I set up my camp among the trees and started planning how to carry out my project.
There was a seasonal creek a short distance away. It had brought down boulders due to flash floods and scattered it along its course. However, the boulders were worn smooth and eroded, and it didn't work the way I expected. The soil was alluvial and lacked adhesiveness. Luckily, there were cut out logs not far off; I made my mind to make use of them in the hut to minimize the use of stones. I rolled down as much as I could and erected them in the walls.
The biggest challenge was collecting the stones from the creek and nearby places. It took me several days to collect enough to start building the hut. More work will be done in the next video.

Outstanding! The next video will be eagerly awaited to enjoy your successful build. I do hope you won't abandon this project part way and leave us disappointed.
Beautiful location for peace and a meditative endeavor to strengthen your soul.
Thanks for watching. Sure, I won’t abandon the project in the middle. There were heavy snowfalls which disrupted my work. You will watch that in the next video. I will return as soon as the weather permits and complete it. Yes, the location is serene and one can feel so much close to the nature.
This man is a medieval castle builder.
next episode, trebuchet.
Да и бригада рядом😅
Nice work, I wasn't expecting you to hand dig a foundation, but there you have it. A testament to time! Looking forward to watching this build progress.
To be honest, hand digging the foundation was a bit difficult as the outer layer of the soil was frozen due to frost and freezing temperature. However, I lit a fire close by and carried out the digging eventually. More to come.
Looking forward to seeing more as you progress with this project!@@thinkwilderness
Молодец!Только со столбов нужно снять кору.
Строишь дом где до далеко от цивилизации,как вам удалось построить дом среде в тайге. Вы кладете камни без цемента , да я лично интересуюсь между камнями столба бревна, чем ты закрепил столб бревна. Без цемента разгладки камни ненарушает скажем так ,вдруг камни неразвалится. Разтвор какой у вас просто чернозем. Извини дорогой так много вопрос задавал. Где и каком стране строишь дом, просто интересуюсь. Я из россии . Республика тыва. Желаю вам здоровья и успеха. Бог благодарить вас, за хороший труд всего наилучшего.
Да, это план. Попробую снять кору с бревен.
My husband and I own a tree service and at 58, I can still lift, roll or flip enormous logs and rounds across yards, up ramps and onto trucks. Been doing it for 20 years and I weigh 140. So many new young male employees would stand around with their hands in their pockets until they watched me get to work and put them to shame. They learned, or they quit! We're also cavers and spend a lot of time moving rock and dirt. It isn't difficult to move more than a ton in a day with just a few determined friends, some shovels and wheelbarrows. I'm always shocked how many people deny the power and ability of a single person to accomplish big projects. What do they do all day, sit on the couch playing video games? It's all attitude, determination, and creativity. Physical strength isn't nearly as important. Great video, inspiring!🙂
Thanks for your input. I second your thoughts on that. I find it difficult to understand why people don’t believe that a single person can build a shelter like this. Yeah, it’s easy to sit on a couch and criticise.
Both my sons are late 20s early 30s and tell me that most of their age group are lazy when it comes to physical labor
This construction is not of a shelter, not of a hut, not of a cabin or not of a house. It’s more like a fortress in the middle of Black Forest 😊😊😊
In case zombies attack,you would probably get killed by falling rocks 😂😂😂💩
Why so close to the water?
where do people get there land from. Shit people are building shelters right and damn left in this other country’s last time I herd most of the people who own land like this are very rich. Because the government of those countries don’t just let people build what they feel like building
Most beautiful part of the world. I was stationed there in the 70s. Black forest runs into the alps. 3 countries share that part of the world, a nature lovers paradise.
I like you was raised in the woods and learned these skills as a child and perfected it as I aged.
I used to build small stone huts and shelters when I was just 10-years old. It’s in the blood.
The Big Bad Wolf could never blow that down! LOL
У нас тоже есть эта сказка
Beautiful work! I could see that you rolled those immense logs on your own, but I can't believe that you stood them up vertically by yourself.
Great point! I will try to show in any my future projects how to erect logs vertically in a wall. It’s not that big of a deal.
I think he most likely used a fulcrum and a lever and then just used various rocks etc to place it underneath the lifted side or something like that to raise the log to an upright position, but I would like to see his method for raising it by oneself just to learn. I truly enjoy what I have seen so far, as I am a carpenter of 25 + years and have done many projects both commercial and residential, but I have never had the opportunity to build a log structure, the closest I have come was one restaurant in Texas that was called the Alpine or something like that I don’t remember but I was only able to work on it for a couple days and then we had to start another project out of state which was disappointing. But I like what he has done so far and I will be watch for the next phase 😊
@@thinkwilderness Will the mud between the rocks survive the rain over time? How does that work? Thank you!
I stand logs vertically every fall. It is easy. I carry them to my truck that way. They are always just over 9 feet long and 24 inches or larger across. I even put some on my shoulder. Not a problem. I do not live in a city, so I have muscles.
What makes builds like this impressive is that they are solo. Where even a team of two is involved determination and morale is much harder than when solo. So building demands a different mindset. I’m not sure quite what but it is but it certainly requires mental resilience and stamina
This man is an absolute beast. Great build for sure.
Look like a great start, can't wait for the rest of it.
Wonderful & long lasting natural construction sir that will last for generations to come. Thank you for this video!
Our pleasure!
These Minecraft high rez resource packs are getting insane, this is the most realistic starter base I have ever seen !
Very beautiful I know how hard and excruciating it is to make such a sargasse, I enjoyed it was so great 🎉
Yes it was. Thanks so much.
... Yeah ! ... remembers me when I was young ! .. wanted to build a shelter like this ...
Great video watching from Philippines 🇵🇭 new friend
Thanks and welcome
Mi e' piaciuto molto questo video e mi sono iscritto 🇺🇿😄🇮🇹
Thank you. More interesting projects will be coming out in days to come. Stay tuned.
👍odlična kuća 🙋
So far so good.
Thanks for watching. More to come.
When I go out in the woods, I always bring a giant bowl.
Amazing how all of those perfectly cut giant logs happen to be laying about. Even more amazing is how they were suddenly standing upright in their proper positions!
and the stones, heavy...
No rock no stone when he’s diggng too 😄
I assume he built this on his own private property, not in the middle of a unclaimed area so the logs were already cut. He explained in his description that the logs were already cut and as for the rocks he built this near a died up riverbed with exposed rocks that's right next to his tent. It's a solo build, not zero tools.
And in one scene there are some stones where he’s building and the next scene there are hundreds-it’s a miracle!
I always stumble across giant logs of equal length and width.
I reckon it will hold the test of time, reckon Hagrid would be happy to live here😂
the housing market in the USA got me into this type of videos
Looks good and it's a lot of hard work but we all know that you had help to lift those logs into standing position 😀
Thanks 👍
Nice work...Very inspiring and useful...Always successful friend God Bless You Greeting from Indonesian traditional gold prospecting 🇮🇩💗🌸🌼👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
My first time whiching and I really enjoyed it 👍💪💪💪😊
Great to hear! Thanks
Me too, fabulous build so far 🤜🏾👍🫵🏽
@@thinkwilderness I wonder if you can find six trees like three in a row and another three in a row and then build a big cabin like that and actually live in it and then build other cabins around the area so you don’t have to move from one place to another
Great suggestion. Thanks
🫡Much ..Much Respect To Your Overall Skillset. Been Learning So Much From Your Vast Knowledge You Choose To Share Freely. ✌🏾
Wow impressive! Moving all the stone and logs alone! Respect 🫡
Just come across you ,from South Wales,UK.Amazing..wow..
Subbed and following..
Thanks for watching and subscribing to my channel. Stay tuned for more interesting projects to come.
какой тяжелый труд.но интересный
Да, это действительно был тяжелый труд - построить эту каменную хижину посреди леса. Самой большой проблемой был сбор камней для строительства стен убежища.
I like the way you think, built the right way from the beginning to the end. Please keep the video's coming and best wishes to all your future endeavors...
Thank you very much! That’s the plan.
Parabéns pelo video maravilhoso lugar
This has got to be one of the most amazing and beautiful handmade bushcraft shelters I've ever seen. Very inspiring. Great job!!!! Highly impressive for one man to build just all by himself. I'm currently building something simular and it's taking me a pretty long time. I might be close to being finished in a couple years. LOL
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantasztikus Ötletes Tehnika, csak belvilága 🤔🤔❗ mifog beférni, ❓❓❓🤔🤔🙋♀️🙄👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching.
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for sharing
You have to be in some amazing shape to do all this my friend. Congratulations
Thank you! Cheers!
Because you sure do love your woods
Excellent Video 👏👏👏
Great Cinematics 🫡🫡🫡
Beautiful Design 🍓🍓🍓
Thank you! Cheers!
Hola, vaya cabaña. Es brutal !!. Mucha salud para disfrutarla.
De hecho, fue difícil llevar a cabo un proyecto así. Fue laborioso y tedioso. Ahora estoy descansando gracias al mal tiempo de la zona, y volveré una vez que mejore el tiempo y termine el proyecto.
So are you just using water and dirt to build your walls ?? Or is there a ratio I'm not seeing ? How has it held up looks really nice
I have watched several videos where the person built a stone shelter. This is the first one I've seen, in quite a long time where the "stone work" was done correctly.
99% of all the others were done totally wrong and will fail, if not already. NOT THIS TIME. Great work so far. I would use a bit skinnier logs, that's OK, it is your build, not mine.
I will be looking forward to seeing more. ;-)
Thanks my friend for appreciating it. I tried to build it to the best of my potential and knowledge. I am hopeful I will complete it as soon as possible. More work has to be done.
Deserves way more views wow ‼️❤️🔥
at the spend he works it would take 24 years to complere the project. Also amazing g how everything he needs us close by and even pre cut logs of the perfect size he needs are laying around. not to mention how he managed to stand them up on his own
In the description he explains this took weeks of planning before he even begun building. This is on his own private property so he already had these logs pre-cut and the rocks were completely available due to the riverbeds near by being dried up.
How beautifully clever! I love it ❤many to you Blessings 🙏🏼 ☺️
Thank you! Cheers!
"...In this video, I will build a stone-cum-wood survival bushcraft shelter". I can only imagine the dedication (and editing) that took.
a massive and promising start👍 I'm looking forward to the continuation. Take care of your health - boulders and logs look unsafe👷
Thanks. It’s not completed so more work has to be done.
Classic starter base in minecraft
Nice work keep going can't wait to see how it turns out
Thanks! Will do!
Good job
Thanks
I like your video ❤️❤️
I would have liked to see how he got that heavy tree trunk upright without help, yet again I got to remember it’s only a movie…
Fulcrum method
nice to see a proper stone build unlike many of the charlatans we see on you tube whose 'structures' are so unstable and would collapse at the slightest touch
Thanks for appreciating and watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
It's amazing you can do that👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cómo no puedo reproducir el vídeo estoy suscrita 😢
Парень это ведь адский труд. Так можна и надо рваться. На старости будешь мучеться спиной. Нужно беречь себя.
Kabin, yang sangat kokoh sobatku,sukses selalu buat sobat ❤❤ salam kenal sobat 🙏🙏
So incredibly entertaining
That tough looking sand and those rocks def from somewhere.....
In the river bed right at the side.
Bravo.grande
It's pretty convenient how you left out you using your truck or a friend to stand those logs up on end ;)
Noted, I will show you in any of my future project how to erect these logs in the walls in standing position.
First time I've seen someone use a pickaxe for a bushcraft build. Looks very solid. How come you don't fully debark the logs? That would make them last at least a little bit longer.
Awesome so far.
Your first fire in this video is good, but if you added one of those pinecones in the middle instead of that one stick I've found they work well
Also could you show us a little more about how you mix the mud, I imagine you do it around the inside to not spill the water?
Espero la continuacion👍💪😊
Por supuesto, como experto excursionista, siempre llevo en mi mochila pico, pala, hacha, serrucho, tv de plasma, thermomix y todas esas cosas imprescindibles.
Boa tarde, caprichado sua obra, quantos dias você levou prá conseguir. Deus abençoe vc.
Obrigado. Levei quase dois meses. Ainda está para ser concluído. Mais trabalho terá que ser feito nos próximos dias. Você verá os dois últimos episódios no meu canal.
Are you expecting a nuclear attack ?? Fabulous work.
Thanks for watching.
Esse homem é uma máquina! Como pode?
I want to see the finished product
well done
NEW SUBSCRIBER
I like the idea of a stone cabin in the woods.
Me too. Thanks for your comment and subscribing to my channel.
Nothing screams outdoorsy like rubber gloves when using mud mortar…..
Wow!!!I'd love to see the next epesode pls❤
Working on it.
good work is happening, I hope you will upload more
That's the plan! I will complete it as soon as possible.
Lets see, some.bobcat skid steers bringing in rocks off a large 18 wheeler truck, some excavators and back hoes. 5 or 8 helpers. That ought to get it done.
Very cool and clearly a lot of work! Looking forward to an update, but - get some rest, that can't be easy on the back.
That’s the plan! Heavy snowfalls cut short my work, but I will return once the snow clears. My priority is now to complete the project as soon as possible.
Will the soil not turn to dust when it dries. Will its cohesive and levelling qualities be retained
The description says it's a stone-cum-wood structure. So glad he didn't show the collecting of anything except the stones and the wood.
In 100 years this structure will still be standing.
Короед с'ест 😁
He built it one rock at a time and it didn’t cost him a dime.
Ya ví si hay río 😂🎉
Beautiful
Now that is a structure to feel safe in . Please make a door that is just as substantial.
Thank you for watching and your good suggestion.
수고하셨습니다.
대단한 기술입니다.
Good house 🏠🏠🏠🏠
В середину стены горизонтально можно класть трубы ПВХ прямо друг на друга. В зависимости от толщины стены трубы можно класть и 50 и 100 мм в диаметре. Чтобы в середине стены был воздух. Стена будет намного теплее
Thanks for your feedback.
I hope someone tells him, these last wayyyy longer if you remove the bark 1st.
That's so great❤❤
Nice..... I love video❤❤❤❤❤
Well done. Amazing structure. Some commenters here are couch potatoes that just mock people.
Excellente
he made his mortar out of dirt, how long will that last in a big rain?
Good job!
Thank you! Cheers!
На кой е земята на която строи това нещо? Ако не е негова собственост значи е кражба на чужд имот и незаконно строителство.
Where in the world is this guy at I haven't seen water that clean since I was a kid
It was a wild forest and everything, including the running water, was unspoiled and untouched. I felt so close to the nature.
It is touched and spoiled now. Good job!
@@anschetaylor9215 just because people go there doesn't mean it's spoiled. It's probably his land to begin with. It's okay to build a shelter on your own land. I mean you're not going to go there so how would you know? At least somebody is doing something productive. What do you do? Brake windows and set other people's businesses on fire? yeah that's good for the environment. I know a guy like you who didn't like a company putting a pipeline in and they went out and bought a bunch of motor oil into a creek to try to blame it on them. The hilarious part is horizontal drill rigs do not use oil to do the drilling. They use drill mud made out of volcanic ash. So when he called the authorities to come look at the damage it was obvious he had done it and you could even see where he spilled it on the banks and there was a drip all the way to his property. Apparently he had changed the oil on his vehicles and even his riding lawn mower just to have a bunch of oil to contaminate the river with. He got a lot of trouble with that. So maybe you should try it and join him
We do in Tasmania
near my city forest have many clean natural well what can drink and perfect clear have, normal at north europe have.
Nice
멋져유~~~~~~~~
Thanks
Hola, venia bien el vídeo pero no me gusto cuando trajo los troncos, me hubiese gustado saber conque los corto y segundo como los levanto el solo si apenas los podía mover, me gusta ver este tipo de documentales, el lugar espectacular al lado del agua, abrazo grande
The logs were already cut off; I just used them to minimise the use of stones. Stones collection was a big challenge in building this cabin.
اتوق لرؤية كيف سيصنع السقف ..
وددت لو استخدم القش الناعم مع خلطة الطين ليمنح الطين تماسكا اكبر عند الجفاف ..
