For 3$ a month, you get an extra weekly "What's UP" update video. Just for my Patrons. The Support I resave on patreon is all used on stuff to make interesting videos on RUclips.
My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time. Наука
40mm blower and a dehumidifyer filter on the intake from the 40 mm blowerfan + you can run with the Vakuum a pullrobe for power and network
Thank you..
-Flux welding- With out a respirator in a confined space and no eye protection is just crazy man. Protip, Buy a angle grinder and remove paint first it will weld a lot better, paint covers up bad welds really well.
I removed paint with the Dremel... I am fine thank you!!
water is gonna get in around that pipe - you need an aquarium bulkhead seal for that
Hi @relaxingnature2617
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
As someone who does a bit of welding from time to time, you might want to protect the eyes.
And your hair ...
I did not look..
uhh arh that smells so bad..
@@MyPlayHouse Lol love it man. Always make it fun. One of my favorite projects you have over there.
@@AQUATICSLIVE Thank you 🙂
An air compressor will dehumidify the air a bit (you'll get water in the tank). So if you have a thin hose and use the pressure reducer they often have you might be good to go.
Or skip the fresh air and just have a dehumidifier and the same air all the time. You get fresh air in when the lid opens and you get in.
The dehumidifier water can be pumped up to the lid or passed via a hose to the data center.
Thank you,, good sugestions :-)
I suggest a BBQ blower fan it has a 32mm outlet and made to run a long time. Also can put a mini dehumidifier in the data center next to that blower. Another idea for those supports JB Weld works good for that ind of thing.
"BBQ blower fan it has a 32mm" Brilliant sugestion,, I did not know of these.. this is DC, low power and cheap!! Thank You!
Hi Morten, sorry for the late reply, been away for a while and just catching up.... For nearly 30 years I've been in the bodyshop/car repair trade, I've welded more rear panels, quarter panels, front panels and chassis leg ends into vehicle than I can remember, my tips would be... mark out the area on the bunker roof where the rack rail meets the roof and then remove the right side of the server rack completely and grind the roof marked out area back to bare shiny/clean metal, then also remove all the coating from the server rack rail (powder coating) that meets the roof and drill 3 or 4 small 10mm holes in the edge that touches the roof, then cover both area's of bare metal with what we call in the trade a 'weld through primer' usually a zinc/copper spray primer as this will help stop corrosion (as the bunker has so much humidity this will help a lot), then use your magnets to hold the joints tightly together and plug weld through the 3 or 4 small holes filling the holes with weld, bonding the rack rail and roof together, once cooled grind off all the excess weld and spray with an etch primer (usually a light yellow coloured primer), this will form a base for your normal grey based primer, then coat with the white of the bunker colour.... great video as always chief 👏👏👍👍
Hi @timbox74
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
just as an idea. Install another pipe on the other side and install a PC fan (e.g. 120mm) on the inside of the bunker where the vent pipe is installed to draw air from the "data center" and push it out. There are vent pipes like those used for WW2 bunkers. The water can't get in but the air can go out. So you have an airflow from the data center that is pushed out by the fan. You can even use a small solar panel to generate the power for the fan. But the air should move a bit on its own if you have the pipes at different heights. It's good that you've installed the pipes from the data center so low. Due to physics, the warm air rises and starts to circulate.
I am going to let the air out the top,, that is not air tight... :-)
This looks nothing like Aliens. Do not disturb the eggs and all will be fine.
TOooo late,,, AHHHHH blop blop
large aquarium air pump -- is food safe/clean --- non-aquarium pumps can give oil contaminates to the air
Hi @relaxingnature2617
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
Welding works best metal to metal, so cleaning the paint off first would likely help.
Also you need to seal the pipe hole as soon as possible as it will start to let water and dirt inside.
For airflow you need a return to extract warm air. Don't think you need a pump, trickle flow through the pipe should be enough.
👍
Thanks for the tips!
Dehumidifier with a lift pump to pump the moisture out of there to the garden or something. Wrap it in heat tape though so that it doesn't freeze during spring/fall.
I have ordered a dehumidifier :-)
I think that you need a blower fan to push air thru a hose like that, or something that can pump air: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_fan
You will need to pump cold air into the bunker, as putting electronic equipment there will generate heat. Hot air can carry more moisture, and when it cools down against the cold metal walls it releases the moisture. That's what provokes condensation in the first place. Hot air is bad. You definitely don't want to pump hot air into the bunker.
Or maybe install an air conditioning unit with dehumidification. Air won't be renewed in this way, but the same air will be refrigerated and dehumidified.
But if the tank is heated up a bit,, not as much water would be released from the air..
@@MyPlayHouse i think that doing that will cause condensation constantly, as the tank will always be colder than the air, because it's in contact with the terrain.
I suppose that it's similar to defogging the car's windshield. When the cars had no AC they used hot air, but it didn't really work well. Using AC + heating works very well on the car, as it dehumidifies the air.
Get a small dehumidifier (klarstein), which have a water pump which you can connect a narrow gauge drain pipe which can go through the air pipe you’ve installed. You won’t be able to get enough moisture out of the air otherwise? To be honest it’s a huge challenge climactic wise to keep it dry enough in that tank. The temperature changes and the metal surface and the server heat when sealed will create condensation unless the air is kept dry.
I have a really cheap one on it´s way..
I'll join with the popcorn safety gallery and mention that the best white paints are made with lead compounds.
It´s brand new paint,, I do not think lead is used anymore. :-)
And Power + Network in Red Pipes 👍

Thanx :-)
You coulds use an 80mm fan in the data center side to push the hot air through quicker and use an old laptop power band or another 12V adapter with a kick down buck converter, and to make sure the fan isn't running in full throttle, use some kind of fanspeed controller, all low voltage then for low energy consumption.
Hi @ProtekNickz

Wait a moment... One pipe to get air in and out? Not possible because for that you need two pipes or an extra outlet. Bunker Technics ;-)
Air is just going out the top :-)
Just one through,, we must fart a lot more, than we care to admit :-)
Morten, I'm welding for 3 years now. There's no reason to weld without an automatic-helmet. They cost around 40€. If your eyes get burned by the strong UV-light, the damage is permanent! Don't do this ever again! Never!
And by the way: gasless (flux)-Welding without a special filtering face-piece is a really bad idea - especially in such a small space below ground-level!
I did not look at it.
@@MyPlayHouse This might be, but the UV is strong enough to burn your eyes through closed eye-lids. And it's also much much stronger than sunlight. It will burn your skin in short time. "Oh, your were on holidays. You're so brown." - "No holidays. I have welded."
Believe me - burned skin from welding-radiation is no fun. Had it on my neck, even i had my helmet on.
Drilling morten
I like drilling :-)
12:05 Do you think that it may be a 'good idea' to pour 5 or 6 inches of concrete, or less, into the hole before burying it with dirt? (Something to help seal it from water intrusion, etc.?) It may help to keep out water that may contain radioisotopes or other materials that you may not want. Ideally you would want to have a 4" to 6" outer pipe and then have your conduit inside of that, sealed at both ends with a few inches of concreted and sand in between (Sand is easy to remove with a shop vac if you need to service or replace and concrete will help to seal the ends. Perhaps that sounds too elaborate but you don't want anything getting in there and your connections to the outside world and entry point are actually the weak points in your bunker system.
Just a thought....
This is not a really good bunker for my safety,,, It is a fun project for a Data Center Bunker
It's not recommended to look at the welding spot without special dark glasses, and you even use regular glasses (magnifying?) could have even worse effect...
I did not look...
Hi Morten, I would run the pipe to behind your Server Rack. That should be about as dry and warm as you can get. Then blow air down in with a fan. A server fan would be great, since they really blow. I guess you could just put it behind one of your 24/7 Servers... Don
Hi @DonBishopDonSongs
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
i knew you were going to weld w/o the helmet!!
That is why it was so ugly,, I closed my eyes,,,, I do have a helmet.
if you put some egg box foam on back wall it should help with echo
Hi @cyberjack
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)

And soak the moisture, bad idea unless temporary just for during video

HI @klausbachfrederiksen8174
My channel is English, and to make sure as many as possible, can also enjoy the comments, they are also English.
Please keep to English.
Thank you for watching! :-)
Don't eat anything down there, you may not be able to get out....
Just have to pup,, to get out :-P
How to go blind in one easy lesson 😀
My welding's would have been better with my eyes open!!
Vinklemagnet - chuckle
Well believe it or not,, they did not have a round one in Lidl :-)
@@MyPlayHouseThats unfortunate. Well, at least the one you had you managed to get it stuck in there nice and firm.
Acoustic foam on the ceiling maybe
I have been thinking,, to glue on carpet,,, maybe,, but to be hornist I would like something that does not burn :-/
@@MyPlayHouse Office carpet tiles tend to be fire retardant - for obvious reasons
Morton plays Fallout 2024 🙂
Well a bunker is not that stupid,, as how things look at the moment..
@@MyPlayHouse you just need a bigger bunker!
Shoulda sealed the conduit entry (caulk isn't enough). Physics over chemistry any day.
🤜🤛
We will get there :-)
For you hopeful welders out there, don't do what he does. Seriously. At the very least, wear eye protection. UV radiation is no joke and will absolutely burn your retinas faster than you can blink your eyelids shut.
Also, I think it's important to mention to everyone thinking about welding some stuff. Sunglasses will not protect your eyes from a welding arc. You must use a proper welding face shield and you must make sure that none of your skin is exposed to the UV radiation because it will burn you and can lead to skin cancer.
And your welding results, improve a lot! if you open your eyes instead of closing them like I did.
I was just looking to see if someone else had mentioned this. Couldn't believe it when he started welding without eye protection 😱
Not just that. I really like that guy, but... well... he is RUclipsr, why not watch at least a howto before? =)
I mean besides all the eye- and skin-protection ignored, why not at least scrape the paint off before welding, if you really have to weld steel to aluminum (which will most likely not last like that anyway =/)
Hi Morten, plaing with Minecraft? Verry cool your bunker.
Hi @IanCliveKerrCoelho
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
several dehumidifiers
Yes,, I do nt think I need to run much stuff to heat it enough to solve the issue.
I bet your eyes are sore in the morning
I did not watch :-/
buy welding safety equipment please. We do not want that you hurt you😊
I did not look,, I am fine.
Why are you welding with out a helmet!!! You'll damage your retinas.
Eyes closed,, witch is also why my weldings was so bad.
Office carpet tiles tend to be fire retardant (for sound deadening) - know you don't read replies to your replies :)
That might work!!
17:46 Only two thoughts for your edification on the welding projects:
1) I'm not scolding you in any way so please don't take offense. Whatever you do don't look directly at what you are welding; you should, ideally, have a welders mask/helmet for this process because, as you are probably aware, you can be permanently blinded by the high intensity electromagnetic radiation (UV) emitted during the welding process. (UV will go straight through your eyelids and destroy the cells in your eyeballs so closing your eyes is of no help and may even simply give you a nasty case of sunburn on your eyelids, you need to use a welding helmet and if you see any kind of white light while welding then you should find some way to block it). Seriously, check your welding habits and a welders mask is worth the price of your vision, get a good one and keep it in a place where it will stay in good condition for a long time.
2) How safe are the fumes released by the welding system that you are using? A respirator may be a good idea or at least a fan or another flexible pipe with air blowing into the 'bunker' to help evacuate the fumes created, so that you aren't forced to breath any concentrated fumes in such a confined space. There may be a residue left on the inside surfaces as well... What say you?
As always best regards.
My mother is alive and well,, please let her do the warring,, I am fine.
Morten. Wear a welding helmet. Seriously. Get one.
Thank you,, I do have one...
WHAT???
Soldering in a confined space (arc soldering emits dangerous gases), without any eye/face protection, with no ventilation in order to remove the hazardous gases, with nobody to help you if you are injured and you have to exit in an emergency.
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
In my opinion, you should really consider removing the video; it is a very very bad example for hobbyists.
I do not share your opinion. I am 48 years old,, and have yet to injured myself enough to need any sort of patching up or a visit to the emergency room. (only been there twice in my life,, as a kid)
I am old enough to be in charge of my health, and what might look damages on video,, you would not think twice about in real life.
You coulds use an 80mm fan in the data center side to push the hot air through quicker and use an old laptop power band or another 12V adapter with a kick down buck converter, and to make sure the fan isn't running in full throttle, use some kind of fanspeed controller, all low voltage then for low energy consumption.
