Aircrete Pavers for Earthbag Shop Building! | Weekly Peek Ep374
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2022
- The aircrete pavers worked! Watch how they easily they attach to the walls for future cladding. The guys get more earthbag/hyperadobe walls built and make room for embedded rocks and a HUGE bottle. A little spray foam in the tire and our little tractor/riding lawnmower is on the road again. Have a wonderful Columbus Day! We appreciate you!
15% off in the Shop thru Sunday :)

25 years in concrete taught me that simple vinegar will actually remove concrete/cement/ mortar film on just about anything including glass.
Clothing to?
I suggested the same thing. Hadn't seen your post first.
I didn't know that. Thanks! I did an Aircrete facade on the front of the house, around the front door an managed to get it on the door trim.
Absolutely!!! I discovered vinegar for that purpose after grouting our newly tiled floor. Worked like a charm. 👍
With the combination of the rocks, hexagon tiles and the Quonset style roof, this is going to be the coolest looking shop. Way to go family.
Luna is such a little angel. Love seeing her featured this week. The rocks are looking great! I can begin to see how nice the finished shop will be.
After you blast them, clean with vinegar and spray with clear sealant to bring out the colors
What a productive week! The overlapping (?) quonset hut idea for the roof is fascinating, and I'm extremely curious how it will work. The hexagon 'tiles' look amazing, and I can already imagine the end result.
Shelly,
I suggest you take a level and draw vertical lines on the walls the width of the pavers so you can apply the pavers along those lines and then you'll know they are straight. Contractors do this with wall tiles if they don't have laser line levels.
Thank you. Such a pleasure to watch a beautiful family without hearing any swearing.
Can’t believe how amazingly awesome the rocks and hexagons look! Wow
My fear of the sandblasting would be that it would leave a very rough texture on the rocks - you might loose a lot the shinyness that some of them have!
Spraying the wall (rocks & air-creat( with a Thompson's water seal would probably give you results you want. The reds would definitely glow wet or dry. A sand-blast may accidentally do some damage.
Expand a foam in a tire!?! Brilliant! The cactus here are brutal so I'm going to try this!
it works as long as there isn't much weight placed upon the tires..
Loving the rock wall and aircrete pavers. Looks fabulous
The walls look so beautiful. Your family is so artistic! Love it and love your show!
I love the episodes, just wished they were longer...but I am always looking forward to the next one! Hexagone shapes on the outside wall of the shop is so awesome! Who knew this was possible?
It looks totally beautiful I love what you guys are doing with your project. I can’t wait to see the bumblebee and the terrarium❤❤
I love the red barn look and the rocks give it a old fashion look!😇
I really like the stone! I made some Aircrete faux river rock that I've added to the outside of my styropaperaircrete kneewall on the greenhouse I converted from a harbor freight portable garage! It looks awesome!
Watching you guys is like a weekly fix of happy!
Love the rocks and hexagon s. Try a wire wire brush to clean up the rocks.
I see you’re keeping the fans happy, giving the people what they want with all the bonus footage! Thought it was over and I got 3 extra minutes!! I’m sure it expanded my life by at least 3 days 😂 thank you so very much for documenting, editing and sharing your existence. I’m living through you until I can start to get creative on my own. This time next year I hope to be on new land, harvesting a fall garden and maybe building a rock wall of my own! You are all an inspiration!
Great video and progress… love the critter tracks. So, what was Shelly wearing that had to be blurred out? Now, we just need a 3D printer model of the various roof designs that you can swap out to see which one you like the best. Thanks for sharing!
Shelly wins the cutest mom award!
Loving the progress!
Two comments-- Responding to the sand blasting idea. Why not? Or maybe a 'soft' wire brush on a drill?
But after watching poor Shelley try to keep that wall wet.... I'm thinking you guys are gonna have to get some wetter water! :D
Wow looks so nice your rock walls. Great job. God Bless
The last 2 batches and the bee pavers were fantastic 💚 💚
I really like like these walls....very different and not at all boring. Good job girls. Roof sounds strong and right. See you all on the next one.
Now I will watch the replay! I so LOVE your videos and your family 💝 is precious! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences with all of us 🌏🌎🌍🌟🤩🙏💝
Bryson is one smart cookie~
So happy anniversary! 7 years ago I starting watching you guys! I commented on that video too! Breaking ground on Brysons room Ep 11! I had dreams of one day building a home out of cob. But now I watch because yall have become family! You guys helped my family make a major memory when you gave us tickets to the 2018 Gaming Con here in GA! As long as you guys post I will forever watch! ❤️ yall!
The aircrete tiles look like a huge Settlers of Catan game! 😃
You could create a biome in that big glass bottle: have some earth in it, a tiny bit of water, just enough, a plant and then seal it airtight . The plant could sustain itself for decades. Or you could put in several small ones. There must be lots of info on the webs of making plant biomes
The Hexagons look great, you could also use spacers like with tiling to make sure the spacing is consistent. I think you could use a dowel rods of any diameter you choose and pull them out once the hexagon is set.
Wow, you all got so much done!! Your plan for everything sounds fantastic!!!! My strong suit is not in visualizing, but I think I understand the plan. I especially like the idea of the roof!!
I've found that if you gently sand the back side of the Aircrete stone with stucco lath it opens up the porosity and it sticks really well! Of course you want to wet the surfaces as well.
Love your show…. Married 47 years….. October 3, 1975…. From Watson, Louisiana
Those pavers look fantastic on the walls, but they're going to be tough to place on the curved parts, and they'll require a huge amount of mortar on all of the earth bag areas.
You should get Bryson to weld a giant hexagonal cookie cutter out of steel bar stock, then you can just put cob or whatever on the earth bags like you always do, and press the hex pattern into it while it's damp. After it's cured, you can paint the lines black and paint the hexes lots of different colors.
Y’all are the Rock-Ettes!
Thoroughly enjoying the cruisy music again with this vid. And shadow boxing! lol. The hexagons are totally rocking it! But all-in-all, I think I'd like Luna's job. 😀
You might consider adding a product called fiber mesh to your aircrete that should give it some strength with very little weight added
Can't wait to see the Terrarium.
Always full of creativity...pretty cool 😎💯🤗
Looking good. Loving that Bee motif..
Amazing! And gorgeous! Everything! Yay!👋😁❤
Just watching the opening, Bryson's overalls are sick and I want a pair.
Oh wow, love the rocks and the aircreate hexigons
this shed combo is going to be stunning. I didn't have the vision, but wow! can't wait to see more of this thing as it progresses. Dog question 😗: Does Luna have difficulty breathing in the heat? I'm thinking the desert dry is probably good for her...
Hexalent!
Thank you for, once again, sharing a glimpse into your lives with us. Two things: are the hexagon aircrete “tiles” going all over the shop building, or only just a portion of it? (Maybe we could see your plans for those…?) Also, there’s a new shirt waiting to happen: “Leaf ME Alone!” Have a blessed day! We love you guys and we’re so glad that we can still see your videos, here in Poland.
G'day M.L.H, I would probably use chickenwire in your concrete paver moulds to help prevent cracking! Just a thought guys 👍🌞🇦🇺
Spceeet get ya some of those magnetic vent covers for like covering vents in your home. BOOM!💥💣💚
I'd try the sand blasting to clean the rocks. I know it does wonders on brick. You may need to repoint the joints after.
Oh wow! Shelly, I washed your car here in Vegas this weekend, I thought it was you but didn't say anything! Your just as amazing in person as you are in the videos! Thanx for the awesome tip as well!
So fun to watch! Thanks guys
You should use a chalk line to keep the tops of the tiles lined up on each row. I noticed they were dropping to the right. If you don't, compounding errors could make the line get worse and worse, and will get very crooked. Just a thought.
Wowwww , you guys have nailed it with the aircreate tiles , looks fantastic , super smart 😂, hope your all doing well 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
What a fantastic idea! I can’t wait to see the pavers finished.
Those hexagon things are pretty cool! I know it seems faster when you watch it on RUclips, but the building does seem to be coming up pretty fast. Forgive me if I have missed something because I am catching up, but what happened to the branch manager? Y’all are such great people and work so well together. It’s such a joy watching you! Take care and blessings!
Be good when the building is finally done.
Call me crazy, but I think Bryson is starting to remind me a little more of Mr. Rogers. In a cool way. Love the hexagon! Can’t wait to see more! ❤️
I'm loving the longer video yall!!!!
I think that you should add some bumblebee’s to the hexagon shapes. They kind of looks like a honeycomb
Very cool!! Really like your creative channel.
I wish that I could give this video multiple likes! I just loved it! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I took my mower to a tire shop and had them fill all four tires. It’s great. No more flats.
Here's a thought. I saw one of your pavers was a heart. Make one (or one for each) and put the girls name, hand prints and/or foot prints in it. They could be right outside Gaven's room on each side of the door. Then as they have more children (I heard them talking about having 10-12) you could literally circle his room with them. Then when Bree & Jared have children, do the same to her room. Same goes for Bryson & Shae.
Do a roof with a heavy ceiling between the two old sections - you can store wood pieces up there, metal rods. Not as heavy as an apartment but I have always loved the idea of a hell of a lot of storage space in a workshop, Ladder access would be enough as you won't be living up there
Ohh I love those rocks! The colors! I especially like the way y'all get along! Not to say that you never disagree but, I can tell that y'all make up well! Great videos! I'm having a little trouble figuring out the time line, but I'm having fun watching!
Was that sound of broken glass hinting at the loss of the beautiful window/terrarium/aquarium jar?
My vote would be for goldfish if it was on a north wall that would not get direct sun.
Great show
Put the spout of the big glass bottle downwards so you can wash out the soil and plants when the terrarrium doesnt work out
Looking Good 😀
Lookin good!!
Looks really good
I still think you need a t-shirt shirt " Rock on Rock off" commemorating taking the "ugly rock" off. Or just "Rocking on" for all of it.
Maybe do some concrete dye in someone those hexagons
Glass bead blasting may work better as a rock "cleaner", maybe even soda blasting will work.
Vinegar is capable of removing cement film... Either pure or diluted 50/50 with water. Spray it on and rinse it off after about an hour... To prevent the vinegar from drying both apply in the evening and mix the vinegar with wallpaper glue to make it thick like paint remover paste... You can then brush it onto the stones and leave the mortar without the paste... Work in sections, applying vinegar wet cloth and something like cling film or thin plastic to retain the moisture...
Those pavers were a really great idea
3:33 could this music be more perfect? love it!!!
Your rocks can be cleaned with muratic acid and a brush just like brick walls. Anything mecanical (sand blasting, wire brushing) will just make more dust that sticks. Any masonry sealer could give a wet look for a time but, will break down quickly in your sunshine. And is not needed in your climate.
Hubby says to acid wash it then you have to neutralize the acid with sodium bicarb or TSP. Two gallon garden spray with a 1/4 gallon of acid. Have to wet everything before you apply it. Don't sand blast it. Might want to use an acid brush to get the heavy off.
Have you ever tried mixing shredded wet cardboard with cement? It makes a strong light weight concrete.
Very common in old England to find animal footprints on clay lump blocks and bricks left out in the sun to dry,often referred to as pixie prints the bricks and blocks would be considered blessed and featured in places of prominence by the brick layers. Obviously your pixies were doing you a favor which you could do for your selves by making a comb out of a piece of scrap wood and setting nails about an inch apart, comb wiggly lines across the back face of your pavers when still wet at 90% to each other this will help provide extra grip to your wall. good luck with the build should be a nice work shop it's shape reminds me of the shepherd homes of Crete only they have flat roofs to catch the rain. with stones set into the out side of the wall to act as stairs.
Love it you guys i just love you guys
Awesome!!
15:34 - Bryson practicing for when he finally ties a damsel in distress to railroad tracks.
You could totally repurpose fish tanks, put them on their sides in the walls and turn them into terrariums!
I wish you would have the quancent divided in half where one side of the roof comes up 4 feet higher, and within that 4 ft wall are a row of windows, letting in light. And if you had a landing a few feet below the windows, it would make a sunny area to sit or have an office.
From the front of the quancent it would look like a large "C" connected to a backwards shorter "C". The windows would be in a row all the length of wall in the upper four feet of the large C, and would look out over the shorter backwards c of the other half.
Go to any hardware store and pick up a gallon of muratic acid for about 10 bucks dilute with water, spray on and brush with a stiff bristle brush, rinse and your done ! every stone and brick layer I know uses this method !
I've tried the foam in the tire trick and found that over time the foam compresses. You might be able to refill them, not sure. I just use Slime in all the tires of my yard implements and it works great 👍
Do you buy it off the shelf or do you make something? If you make it, could you share the directions? Thank you
I want that jar‼️
Everyone pitching in Having a rock of time
I love your videos. Question: are you planning to plaster the earth bags after you do the rock walls?
You could put a fosh in it in the wall.
Okay so y'all can come to Alabama and make me a Earth Bag She Shed. LOL
Will you need to grout in between the pavers? If so, it might be fun to give the grout a fun color. Of course if you’re planning to paint over the whole thing it would be useless.
You could also try a grinder with a bristle blade type thing on it on it or a drill with a wire brush on the end of it that make them all shine up and get that dusty stuff looking off of it
put chicken wire in it ? and maybe use concrete die making different color pavers ?
There are products for cleaning mortar/concrete/grout haze, may be useful for shining up your rocks. IIRC its just a strong acid
suggest adding fiber to pavers , chopped hey nylon rope fibers whatever you have lying around .
