- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มิ.ย. 2023
- Welcome to Tick Creek Ranch. This channel
was created to show the daily ins and outs of
life on a small ranch. We are a family of eight,
our lifestyle has taken us from the deserts of
Idaho to the wilds of Alaska and back to the
lower 48. We followed our dreams and finally
settled in the Ozark's of Missouri. We have
owned and operated our own businesses. over
the years, ranging from carpentry and
excavation to commercial and residential landscape. The children and ourselves have
developed a passion for learning new skills
which include leather work, welding and
fabricating, carpentry, plumbing, electrical,
roofing, painting, equipment operation, timber
sawing, blacksmithing, horseshoeing, flatwork
and concrete, timber framing, cattle ranching,
horse training, and many more. Please follow
along on this journey as we build our new
home and delve into the ways of regenerative
ranching. So stick around and watch us create
our dream using old world construction
techniques and style reminiscent of an era
gone by. Thank you and enjoy the journey.

Living just south of you in Arkansas, I understand the need for a storm shelter. I'm old and in the "old days," all storm cellars were made of wood. Yours looks exceptionally well built. Hoping you will need your structure only as a root cellar.
We’re praying it just needs to keep food cool;) We hope it gives us a bit of service life. At least I know a guy who can build another if it fails miserably lol. Are you folks as dry as we are? Terrible drought here. Farmers are already feeding hay.
Thanks Vicki
@@tickcreekranch We have had some rain in my area due to severe thunderstorms. In my town last Sunday evening (June 25), we had straight line winds between 60-90 mph. Trees and power lines down everywhere. Initially, over 1000 homes were without power. Over 300 homes are still without power. People here have had a rough week.
@@vickiwood9192 we’re working towards being off grid completely, but that’s a couple years down the road still. I feel for those people with no ac in this intense heat. The cellar is a nice cool place when the power is out
@@tickcreekranchwhat's the temperature usually in the seller?
Amen❤
I LOVE to see men work. Not a rib. The joy you have working is infectious. If only I had muscles, I could move mountains :) LOVE a perfectionist and one who takes joy and pride in their God given talent. beautiful
We might not be the brightest, but we can build stuff lol. Thank you and hope you follow along 👍
You might consider reinforcing some of those shelves to serve double duty as bunks in case you need to sleep in there during a storm.
Excellent build. Only thing I could see was to add some type of small escape hatch in case the door got blocked in a tornado.
maybe a showel and axe? :)
That’s what I like about it the most. The way he built the entryway. It’s covered so at least the door won’t get blocked.
Or in case the people from irs show up for another handout
The door swings inward so you can always get past the door
We have a electric chainsaw and prybar in there just in case😁
love how you teach them. this is how lessons stick, through self involved action. your "they're still stupid" comment was hilarious
We razz each other around here pretty good! Some people got their panties in a wad over that comment lol!
Well…..I normally watch these types of videos and fast forward. Once I saw that guy work that backhoe and saw that he knew what he was doing I just locked in and watched the whole thing. That was real good work on that cellar and ya'll obviously know what you're doing. Good job.
Nice work. I’d suggest backfilling the walls with clean rock if someone else is building similar. This helps reduce lateral loads on the walls and also keeps saturated soils away from the exterior wall surfaces. This should increase the structures service life.
Than k you for your comment. I’m in the process of designing my own.
Expanding clay deff ruined alot of places. Nice call
That is the fanciest, most well built root cellar I have ever seen!!
What a nice solid build. Well done men.
"Oh no it's not working. They're still stupid."
Lol. I'm a 50 tradesman who's had plenty of apprentices and raised kids. That tickled my funny bone. Solid build.
We bust some chops around here!😅
Stupendous build!
Awesome build, great carpentry skills, really appreciate the attention to details and not getting in too big a hurry.
That's a sweet build I have been wanting to build one maybe this will get me going on it
Very impressive build. A root cellar is on my list of things to get accomplished. I gathered some good ideas from your video. Fine Craftsmanship that is in short supply these days.
Love the way you guys bust on each other. Reminds me of me and my dad
Thanks Rick! There’s definitely better building techniques for a root celler, but this is what we could afford, and it was readily available. Yeah, we bust chops around here pretty good. No safe spaces lol
I just happened onto this video and glad I did!!! Love watching craftsmen do their work. Very well made, beautiful, practical structure!! With the way the weather is now days, I hope you never have to use it as a storm shelter but I have no doubt you would be safe inside. Had to giggle with the "they're still stupid" comment!!! Anyone working with young adults completely understands!!! I'm sure they will grow into their smarts soon!!! LOL
Hey, welcome! Thanks for the visit. If the cellar lasts 10 years it will have served its purpose. Any more than that is just icing on the cake. As to the “words of encouragement” we rib each other around here pretty good. We don’t have “safe spaces” around here. It’s a….lets just call it a “non modern parenting technique”. lol
@@tickcreekranch Same with our family... we have a very "sarcastic" sense of humor--we're all First Responders--fire. police and EMS!! But our kids give back as good as they take! Keeps it fun!!!
BRAVO capable beautiful men! Very grateful there are men like you and your young men out there. Can't say I'm not a bit jelous😊 Your wife is a very lucky Lady, hopefully she is just as capable but in a supportive area of her own expertise. Well done, very impressed. Much Love beautiful family.💗👑
Thank you Victoria! We put a lot of emphasis on acquired skills around here. I’d say, one of my wife’s greatest skills is putting up with my, well…let’s just call them …eccentricities😁 Like good ole Red Green would say “If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy” lol
I’m amazed at your skills!
Truly impressive design and workmanship. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video
Looks solid! Loved the door latch.
It is truly wonderful to watch good craftsmen at their trade! Well done.....
Thanks Steve
Beautiful Build!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing!
Cool build! thanks for sharing guys
WOW🤩😍🤩You have built a work of art there, love it.
Great job. Thanks for sharing this with me 😁👍😎
Absolutely awesome 👍
Another great video on the cellar/shelter.
That was a very nice build and the craftsmanship you an your crew have is epic.
That’s a really nice build. I like the cedar that was a great touch. You guys and skills are impressive.
That will be there forever. Great job!
Beautiful build.
Sweet! I'll take a closer look at this when I have time.
Awesome Build! Nice Carpentry work, I love the Dimensional lumber, That looks like it will weather any storm!
Gorgeously bilt! ❤️👏👏👏 God bless you and yours, may you all be always safe and happy🙏😊🍀
I'm impressed. Good Job.
Beautiful workmanship.
Looks like an amazing build. You'd absolutely would benefit from adding a ventilation tube in the rear, with an intake at the front. Some vegetables will give off chemicals...gasses... That effect the others stored there.
Furthermore, it would assist in pressure changes as the storms come through the area, this can enable the structure to change internal pressures and not be as likely to get damaged.
Yes sir, somehow we didn’t show any of the ventilation in this vid. It has vents in the bottom of the door and a roof top turbine vent (that is too big btw:) We’ll put out a update video soon and I’ll be sure to include the ventilation this time👍
@@tickcreekranch definitely would love to see a update!
@@AddictOfLearning Yes! We need to!
Acetlyene or ethene - triple bonded carbon molecules - everyone knows about bananas emitting them and to keep em in a bag if u want to ripen quicker. I spent 2 years in college studying and then teaching organic chemistry and honest to god this is the first time in a year or two i actually have used that knowledge (knowingly). Did teach me how to think better, at the cost of me writing skills.
Beautiful joinery work ! impressive. Lot of commitment to quality work. Well done!
That’s so impressive. I wish I had family to build me one, really well done.
Nice craftsmanship!!!
I like the door, the doors bolt lock,
and locks door trim.
Damn! That is EXCEPTIONAL!!! Incredible job fellas. Really impressive.
Amazing job guys and what piece of mind to know you have a safe place when the weather gets bad. My area is well known for Tornados and even though I'm quite used to it nothing worse than trying to finding a safe spot when the weather gets bad.
Wow that was very interesting and helpful. We’re planning on building a cellar next summer at my sister’s. She wasn’t sure about some of the specifics regarding moisture and water control. Thanks for sharing! Now I have a reference vid for her.
Looks Great... Well built cellar...
Great job! Enjoyed watching it!
Nice job! Very impressive! Hopefully, you'll never have to sit out a nasty storm, but if you do have to; you're prepared!
Awesome build guys!
So epic and beautiful!
Super deluxe! Love it! The entry way - GREAT idea! A++ 👍
Some fine carpentry work there brothers 👍
Great job guys ! Looks solid
Great job!
Great work, love to watch multi use imagination stand up and secure necessary efforts
Great job. Love it.
Looks amazing! A root cellar has been on my to do list for years, hopefully we'll get one put in at some point.
Sir, I really enjoyed this video seeing three generations working together is very inspiring. Don’t know if your shelter will last forever but I’m guessing it will last long enough. Great video!
It was a fun project and only time will tell about the longevity. We experiment with a lot of different stuff, this was one of those. There are wood cellars that still function that date back to the 1700s. Now do I think this will last as long, no. I’m sure they had environmental advantages over us and a better decay resistant species they utilized. On the flip side of the equation, we have modern membranes, drain tile, dehumidifiers and products we can apply to prevent insects and decay. It will be interesting to see if this is a viable option for some instead of masonry and it’s associated cost. This was less than 2k total considering we mill our own lumber. Thanks Chico
Those black marks on the wood is mold. You have to use bleach to get rid of it..
Amazing!❤
This is outstanding!
Great project - gave me some good ideas
Super nice build!
Amazing work!
Looks fantastic
Amazing 👏
That’s a great build video.
Great job! I really like it!
Very good presentation and craftmanship, stay safe during tornadoes and other natural disasters
Well done !
Looks great!
Remarkable. Thank You.
cool! nice work!
Wonderful! I'm so jealous.
I'd sure love to have one of these in my property. Both uses so valuable.
Great job guys, very inspiring. As for me, I'm looking at such a structure for food passive conservation, I guess I can just copy your model with special attention to the air/humidity factor.
Really nice Job!😎
Very cool!!!
Really enjoyed watching the build and final product. Y’all made it look so easy.
Just good editing lol
Awesome build!
Nice job guys .
That is a awesome build
Thank you very interesting and informative
Cool build.
Thanks for more detail, longer form with narration! You guys are awesome!!
And no distracting background music! 😊
I would want to keep a couple bottle jacks and a mega pry bar inside. It could help an escape.
Looks awesome
Excellent ❤
Solid boys, hard workers!
Don’t like to see the soil up against the structure, but hoping for the best !
Very nice it’s cool to have your own will to make real 4x4 s etc
Nice guys! Pretty cool
Nice build, Thanks for sharing !
No problem 👍
Great Build!
Damn, that's basically a bunker. Nice build!
Extremely nice.
