About This Video:
I cleared an area as a workspace for making bricks, trialed a new source of clay for brick making and tested a new kiln variant that uses fewer bricks than the previous design.
Near the existing brick hut, there is a area on a slight slope near a seasonal creek with a possible source of clay. The area had a large fallen tree in it that I burnt into 3 pieces and rolled out of the way with logs as levers. I may build a hut in this area and so cleared it.
Next, I dug a pit to mix clay in and collected the new source of clay. The old brick mold (made in a previous video) was used to make 50 bricks that were then allowed to dry.
While this was happening I dismantled the old kiln and used its bricks to make a new one. The new configuration uses only 74 bricks instead of the previous 100, a significantly simpler design. Its firebox is formed by crisscrossing 2 layers of bricks so that air enters in the first layer channels and wood enters the 2nd layer channels at right angles to the first. The new kiln has 3 firing holes instead of the previous 2 of the last design. The new design also has all the bricks stacked on their sides so there is less chance of breakage.
I fired the bricks and the kiln went ok. There were some cold spots at the top but this may be due to the fact I used less wood than usual, with the firing only taking 2.5 hours (ran out of wood). 3 hours would be better and more wood should be collected beforehand ( a 75x75x100cm pile as opposed to 75x75x75cm pile used this time). The bricks in the coldest area still passed a water test without dissolving though, so it was a success.
Ash from the firring was made into bricks for storage as they can be used for mortar by calcining (firing in the kiln) later and mixing with sand and water.
About Primitive Technology:
Primitive technology is a hobby where you build things in the wild completely from scratch using no modern tools or materials. These are the strict rules: If you want a fire, use a fire stick - An axe, pick up a stone and shape it - A hut, build one from trees, mud, rocks etc. The challenge is seeing how far you can go without utilizing modern technology. I do not live in the wild, but enjoy building shelter, tools, and more, only utilizing natural materials. To find specific videos, visit my playlist tab for building videos focused on pyrotechnology, shelter, weapons, food & agriculture, tools & machines, and weaving & fiber.

I'm testing a new brick kiln as this is the dry season and is the right weather for making bricks. I have no definite plans on what I'll build but know the bricks will come in handy later on. The new kiln design uses fewer bricks (74 instead of 100) and is simpler to construct so the viewer at home might be able to easily assemble. It can also be used for pottery.
🥶
Viewer at home.... shaking right now.
What are your plans on the Iron prills you've been making?
Thank you for sharing with us
Cheers! I'm thinking about making one in my backyard to make bonsai pots. Probably won't make my own bricks though!
I love the little shade thrown at other fake creators. Showing the whole firing process, no miracle cement, "No excavators were harmed...". Just beautiful
Really makes you admire the process: seeing the pile of clay get bigger slowly (25 buckets), seeing every brick being formed (50 bricks), the pile of wood is stacked up and then slowly used for the kiln. A lot of work for just 50 bricks! Also great seeing the elements reused, the wood ash will become the mortar, the old bricks are the brick kiln, all the prep here like the hole can be used for more bricks. A slow process to create the new bigger hut that will enable him to do even more

"Like with most problems, fire is the solution." The Primitive Technology motto.

No. Actually it's explosives. ;)
Hello friends, I am from Cambodia.🇰🇭
@@psotos Yep, supersonic fire it is!
Should be on the next mug design 👍
I'm a machinist, and I tell anyone who will listen that everything, literally everything you interact with in the modern world is either made by machine tools, or made with tools that were themselves made by machine tools. Your videos are the perfect explanation of that. You literally have to go back to the dirt and stone to get anything that wasn't made by a machine. It never ceases to amaze me that all of our technological innovation has been built on top of the very things you are doing.
the modern world is a trillion bricks, a billion laborers, a bucketfull of christianity and a few drops of genius. all those vicars that invented the steam engine and that weirdo dude that made the first surface plate and a gun with hexagonal rifling? all that stuff was the product of sweaty hard labor producing basic necessities we need to live. the tech was just icing on the cake, up until the equation got flipped upside down and the technology started to produce everything, and quickly outstripped humans.
after all these years this is still the best channel on youtube. People don't realize how much effort goes into a video like this. All the videos have a soul - thank you.
Crazy to think it’s almost been 10 years of PT videos…
If I may,
I think many people do realize the effort.
And appreciate it.
As you are.
As I am.
Kudos.
Watching from the beginning, you can tell from how absolutely jacked he's gotten
I can't imagine all the carcinogens he's inhaled from the smoke
Don’t deny it is great, but it really depends on your interests. If you have xylophobia, for example, you would probably hate this show.
That's why they tale 1 month each, it's incredibly high quality.
"No excavators were harmed in the making of this video."
And that's exactly why we love you PrimTech!
One of the best lines ever. I actually watch excavators on other channels. Some take a flogging, some fall over. Better if it's done by hand, as here... primitively.
But they were harmed. In their feelings. For not using them. Poor unused things.
@@notfeedynotlazy lol
@@theoneandonlyowl3764 Sometimes you only get to see them trying to spell out help me in the giant underground pool digs made in the middle of nowhere. The amount of labor they do, obliterated by a jump cuts, and credit taken by men with stick.
My man throwing shades at other copycats lol
it's crazy to think i've ben watching your videos for years and never once heard your voice. being able to capture an audience without so much as a word is pretty astounding
He spit on the ground one time
It sounded like "Ptu"
We would all perish if we heard his angelic voice.
@@That0therAsian hmm what language is it
Watch it with the closed captioning
@@zethicc7557 it'd probably be english as he's from northern Queensland
I love the time-lapses, seeing the amount of work involved in "simple" things like using a brick mold fifty times is really cool
It does make you appreciate how much time it would take to make a full size shelter out of brick. He said that "little" brick kiln alone is 100 bricks?! But it also got me thinking two things: First, that having even just one other person would speed it up a lot, more than twice as fast, since you can pass the brick mold and the clay around and you don't have to spend time walking. Second, that as the kiln is firing, you can mold more bricks (taking breaks to stoke the kiln), so you can get a pipeline going that might start outputting bricks at a surprising rate.
Those two things alone, even with primitive technology, might be considered "industrial." I don't think you need a lot of physical technology (tools, materials, etc.) to come up with improvements to a process that transform it to "industry". I wonder how long it took for the first industry to evolve? It could have predated agriculture even...
@@Wasabiofip Interestingly enough theres some solid evidence some form of early industry did predate agriculture! Both Karahan Tepe and Gobekli Tepe are megalithic structures that predate agriculture. Miniminuteman talks about them in part 3 of his debunking 'Ancient Apocalypse' series. He's an all around great channel if you're interested in Anthropology and Archaeology.
Always nice to see another Primitive Technology upload, and I'm glad that no excavators were harmed in the making of this video
I love that you played the ambient noise of the forest during the time-lapses. It's a small detail that might go unnoticed, but it's a phenomenal choice that amplifies just how great this content is.
Something about the sounds of an Aussie rainforrest that are so relaxing.
Yes! Noticed that, too. It was definitely cathartic.
He's as fastidious and detail oriented about his camerawork and editing as he is on everything he builds.
Often imitated, never duplicated, I have a great respect for your commitment to doing things without taking shortcuts. You are real, and that is a quality the world finds itself slowly running out of these days. Keep at it, and here's to 10 million more!
Easy mf e
There are a couple good people that do genuine primitive bushcraft, but those are few and far between in a sea of fakes
Well, the copy-cat channels usually use heavy machinery to create their supposedly hand-built "amazing underground pools with water slide".
@@jameswalker199 can you give us their name?
Imitated, but never duplicated...Great phrase to describe this channel.
Seeing the movement of the shadows as the day goes on in the time-lapse is SUPREMELY satisfying!
Words cannot express how much peace of mind having you back creating videos gives me. The world went to hell in a handbasket, and this videos remind me of better times.
Props for being the most legit primitive tech guy on youtube👍
The ONLY legit primitive tech guy. The rest are all fakes and cheap copies as far as I'm concerned.
He's the OG
He's also the first, genuine, and original. ❤ Others are copycats who use excavators and assistants behind the scenes, clickbait, and do another dirty tricks to get more views.
The original and the best, accept no substitute.
Created an entire genre
“No excavators we’re harmed in the making of this video” SAVAGE
The one thing that I have appreciated about your films is that you portray hard work as something that is good. It pays off.
The timelapse is nice and definitely shows you are doing the work....unlike some channels.
The timelapse was a very welcome change for this video, I preferred it to the time skips that you have done previously. I was also greatly relieved to see that no excavators were harmed during filming! Keep it up dude, your videos are therapeutic, entertaining, and genuine!
Agreed. It's sad there's so much fake stuff out there trying to spoof this ultimate badass guy who does it for real
I always love the videos when he is feeling a little extra spicy in the captions
Reason why he didn't use to let us know he is not fraud but genuine
@@Zippsterman yeah... so few know that this guy is the Original. He started his experiments and I absolutely have learned So much from him, it is as if I look back into the olden times when people discovered what they all cold make from the wood around them and soils beneath their feet!
And I honestly find it sad to see him, in contrary to the other 'copy cats' that have millions more subs then this man who deserves it truly. I know, the amount he has now is okay too, I mean, I wished I was so lucky, but so little know he IS the true O.G. !
And he honestly deserves WAY more subs!
He takes soo much effort to make this 100% legit, and the closed captioning is a ton of work on its own
I was so glad to see that no excavators were harmed during the filming... Good job! 😀
What I truly appreciate about these primitive technology videos is that they authentically depict the extensive effort invested in a project and shows the potential value of having tribe members to share the workload and lighten the burden.
Even just a second pair of hands; one could collect the clay while the other is shaping, getting done in half the time or less.
@@KainYusanagi yeah and if someone were tasked just to baked the brick, you can make 200 bricks in a day, with only 3 people
Moving the logs is another example. A second person would have made it go 4 times faster. I'm a construction worker and even with modern equipment, having a second pair of hands makes things go more than double the speed.
With John saying 'it is the right weather to make bricks' it also brings to mind a village saying 'brick making time' and getting the brick making team together to pump out bricks for a few days/weeks to last the village until next brick making season. After that is done the brick team disbands and goes back to plowing fields team or collecting wood team depending on the season. The right job done at the right time of year by the right people :)
That pile of wood also demonstrates why other energy sources (fossil fuels and later renewables) were such a game changer. With enough people, the amount of fuel wood that could grow in a season would become the limiting factor on production.
Nobody thinks you're doing the "bring in a production team with excavators" thing. Keep doing what you do, all your videos are enjoyable
I think it was more of a jab at the channels that do.
@@VelaiciaCreator - exactly how I took it.
But seriously, did that line just not kill !🤣
@@VelaiciaCreator Indeed. Subtle, but fierce.
I feel like him showing the entire process of collecting the clay and water and whatnot to fire the bricks was just to add insult to injury at all the people who think this channel is faked, and poke fun at the channels which just like find concrete in the water and whatnot
Love all the bonus footage being included these days. Very satisfying.
I love the entire video, especially the middle finger for the fake, copycat-like channels with 'no excavators were harmed'.
Genius.
Also, your book is possibly the only thing i would bring with myself to the wilderness, or to a postapocalyptic scenario.
Keep doing your precious work, OP!
I've seen dozens of videos of this guy making bricks, and it's still fascinating to this day. I somehow never get bored of it.
i think we all feel a certain loyalty to him too. he doesn't post often, but when he does, it reminds us that he was the first on YT to do all this kind of stuff
the primitive thing kinda got taken over by the SE Asians, good for them i guess. but he'll always be in our hearts!
@@dedede9664 australia is kinda SE asia lol
Seeing dirt getting turned into building material by hand is very satisfying
@@bruhmania7359 bot how that works, like at all... That'd be like saying Africa is east asian 😐

The original, one-and-only, often imitated, never duplicated, Primitive Technology. I'm so glad you're posting content again in 2023. I really support what you're teaching here; I bought your hardcover upon release and was/am looking forward to your TV show (on Discovery I think it was). Is that still on?
Continued survival, best regards.
I am SO GLAD this guy is making videos again!!!!!
I really appreciate that you took the time and effort to make sure that no excavators were harmed in making this video.
Unlike *some other* channels in this genre...

@@kibordplays6109 CC? Like Closed Captioning? I turn those on for this.
it's not only the new brick kiln design, there is also bonus content on how to remove a long and heavy log. =)
Enjoyed the little dig in there. The hole you made was nice too.
Look forward to seeing what you decide to build with the bricks.
Also had another little pleasure of these videos strike me with this one too... the fact that all of the tools, pots etc... you use; we can go and see you making. Up-to and including the buildings (foundations and all).
This man restarted the civilization on his own and by a few years he will be making videos like "how to make your own processor chip in the woods". Mad respect to him for blessing us with such calming and educational content.
It’s crazy how the legitimacy of these builds differs from other channels. Actually posting the whole process even though RUclips culture has deemed stuff like that tedious is just so cool
There's always an audience for top quality production.
I'm glad the first part of removing the log was included even though it wasn't in the video's title. I love watching all of the steps taken in making this primitive habitation.
Agreed. It's the little things that make these videos for me
I was like how did this log help us build a kiln?
@@oldgreenknees1205 Turn on subtitles he explains everything, he needed to move the log to make space for his work area
yea fr
I would love an hour long version of your vids. Just you working on the details and repetitive tasks, theres a lot that goes on in each thing!
I love the pragmatic approach you took with starting the fire. Bow and cord drill look cool, but firesticks are easier to maintain, so it makes sense to roll back to them. No to progress for the sake of progress
Thank you for keeping these crafts alive.
Will do, much appreciated John.
The reason I like the time lapse was because I know you were able to continue on with your task for a long period of time without moving the camera around for a better angle. All of your camera work is stunning for the content you create, and I see all your hard work you do on camera, and there’s still so much you do off camera (moving the camera around for angles). I I love all the angles you give us, but seeing a time lapse was great too because you just got to indulge and not work with the camera too much. Thank you !!!
Each of your videos is a joy to my eyes.
I am always waiting for your new videos.
Don't stop doing it.
Everyone appreciates you.
Please keep doing the timelapses! Such a great way to give us the sense of the workload you put in
What I find so impressive is the sheer patience you have to do the brutal, time-consuming grunt work needed to bring your idea into reality. Your head must be full of things that need doing, improving, testing, yet you knuckle down and focus on the task at hand.
It's probably meditating in a way. Taxing on the body but freeing of the mind?
@@A_Simple_Neurose He slips effortlessly into a flow state and literally shapes his world with his own hands, out of whatever he finds around him (limited to naturally occurring stuff). There are no words for the respect I have for this dude and this channel.
It doesn't look that bad lol. There are plenty of industrial workers doing worse everyday for years.
Absolute respect to you for the time commitment you do for each video. Love every single one.
Time commitment of ur mom
Always really impressed by your research and planning that goes unremarked in the videos, obviously as well as the clarity. Particularly liked the way you could see the bricks starting to progressively glow with heat higher and higher up the kiln. Bit of a concern, though: as you mentioned you're going into the dry season, you didn't clear the area around it of readily flammable material. Maybe just not a concern with that sort of tropical environment? I'll readily admit I'm more familiar with the temperate climes where that'd be unconscionable.
I believe he does these on a friend's property so I'm sure he takes due care - he seems a conscientious, patient, hardworking type that doesn't cut corners.
Years later and I still can't get over how good you are with a fire stick. There are tons of people who can't start a fire with a magnesium rod as fast as you can with just a reasonably straight stick.

"like most problems, fire is the solution", i need that on a mug
Been watching for 5 years, and if you keep uploading, I'll definitely be watching for at least 5 more. These videos are perfect, fascinating and calming. I love seeing how you improve your techniques and designs over time.
It is fascinating. It is learning by doing. It's like watching on high speed how we evolved:) Just dare you to say anything else besides it's fascinating :D
It takes experimental archeology to a whole new level, giving us not only an insight into how things may have been made in the past, but also how techniques may have evolved over time!!! Fascinating!!!
This felt pretty good to watch- the wide shots, the time-lapse that really makes you appreciate the work being done, the mild snark that burns hotter than that log you needed to move- great viewing for sure.
4:55 "No excavators were harmed in the making of this video."
Every time a new video comes out I literally sit there in utter amazement for the entire video. Stuff is wild. Keep it up man, incredible work
This has been one of my absolute favorite channels for years.
Thank you for all of these. I look forward to many, many more. :)
The comedy in these videos is rare, but when it shows up, it's a warm, welcome reminder that the man on-screen is a human like the rest of us. I particularly enjoyed the line "like with most problems, fire is the solution." A thoroughly human line -- just a little nugget of wit. Love it.
It's crazy how much energy from you and the sources around you is needed to build things.
He says at the start of the video that using fire to cut the fallen tree saves tool wear. Imagine if basic tools took so much effort to make that they were too precious to use on menial tasks!
@@DisorderedArray stone tools are very hard to make and wear easily. Using them to cut a big log is inefective, and requires a lot of energy from him. But with fire you can just light it once, and just check on the process to make sure nothinh else is burned.
When most tasks can be done using machines, we've become disconnected from how much energy they actually require to do.
@@DisorderedArray Think of all the energy that fire used. It's pretty cool thinking about it.
"no excavators were harmed in the making of this video" is a funny as line lmao. Still seemingly the only bushcraft channel that isn't full of lies.
从一开始就关注了你，你是最棒的。你复原的一些原始技术非常有说服力，在我的国家出土的一些文物完全能够证实你的技术是对的。以前的人类就是这么干的。他们在很久很久以前点燃了文明之火。
The sheer amount of effort needed to dig a pit of this "small" size! Your patience and stamina never fail to surprise me!
It's neat to see you refining the batch sizes of your materials. You've got the volume of clay for X bricks, which will exactly fit in the kiln, and needs Y volume of wood. With Y needing to be bigger, but you know the Y you used because you measured it with the sticks, so you can make a pretty accurate adjustment next batch.
Im showing my son how to make a brick out of ash. It's a great life lesson.
Fascinated by the idea that different quality clays are good for different things. With bricks, impurities aren't as bad because it's just a solid slab of clay. But in thinner pieces, it's vital for the clay to be as free of impurities as possible.
It makes sense, it's just interesting to see it in practice.
Bricks can be insulated by adding charcoal shards and Paperbark shreds, the later of which strengthens them.
Part of this is actually caused by what clay IS.
Not only are clay particles tiny, they're plate-shaped. That's what gives it the ability to hold shape, and why thinner, finer shapes require purer clay--the impurities just don't have that ability, and at a certain point the clay content will be too low to hold everything else together without crumbling.

One of my favorite channels on YT and literally the only one of this type that I will watch. All the others are too fake and honestly kind of useless, but this, this has a peaceful environment, interesting and useful information, as well as a chill vibe. The fact you show food stuffs sometimes and add in the subtitles so those of us that are curious can learn, well it keeps me coming back. Been subscribed to you since your first video went viral on Facebook and can't wait to see what else you'll teach us! You're like the primitive survival child of Bob Ross and Steve Irwin.
Facts.
There was ONE of the "copycat" channels, Primitive Skills, that also showed the whole process. I think the only "done for sake of convenience" was the amount of iron had access to for forging into tools. Woodcrafting, building, forging, pottery, agriculture all done on his own by hand, otherwise.
only channel i watch that's close to this is the chinese guy who is constantly making different things (usually from bamboo, sometimes wood or stone) and ends with making some sort of meal....
@@timhyatt9185 That's probably the one, tho isn't Chinese, think he's in thailand/vietnam/south korea, forgot which.
@@timhyatt9185 That's John's disadvantage here: no bamboo. It's an OP material, as that channel demonstrates.
5:04 "no excavators were harmed in the making of this video" haha shots fired!
This content makes my day, and the fact that I am pretty sure this is real shows that clearly, this man is very skilled and has a lot of experience, unlike the fake channels. Anyway, these videos are visual masterpieces. I really enjoy watching them.
This reminds me of the story, my mother told me of her father Carroll Barbour helping to build a log cabin. They had very long poles to help raise the logs up to the top of the cabin wall. And one started to roll backwards on the men, and my grandfather helped by holding it up in the middle to keep it from crushing the men below. He was tall and very very strong if you’ve ever tried to hold up a whole log by yourself you’ll understand.
i love how you keep it consistent to show where you keep getting stuff from, or show progress of doing things while being sped up instead of cutting the video. way too many fake primitive channels keep doing shady stuff between cuts... i know you've always included footage of you doing the stuff, i just wanted to point out and appreciate the effort you make
I love watching your videos twice. The first time without subtitles to take it all in, then a second time with your carefully written subtitles turned on to explain your process. It's brilliant!

I've been meaning to ask, but keep forgetting: Do you happen to know what kind of wood your firesticks are? I'm sure you've gone through more than a few sets over the years, but I was hoping you could tell us. Thanks, man, and keep up the good work. I loved reading your book!
Are they hardwood? Softwood? Or, even better, do you happen to know what species of tree they come from, if you prefer one particular tree?

John looking shredded and killing it with the closed captioning jokes! This is what sets him apart from all the copycat channels out there. I love that he doesn't cut the video when starting friction fires, we get to see it from start > smoke > ember > flame.

Thanks Ben. I was in my mid 20's when I started making fired pottery, it takes a while to get good at it. A kiln helps with the consistent results and larger quantities. John.

Dude wake up 😮💨 primitive technology posted
Love the new timelapse! Great touch! It shows us even more so how much work it takes
Id love to see more timelapses like that! Id like to see how you make areas clear for building things in, seeing the prep is my favorite.
Recording him doing all fifty bricks...more real work we'll see than on other copycat channels!

He should have a second channel with unedited footage, I'm pretty sure people would like it as a background noise.
@@richardcunhacomedy Hm, you may be on to something here.
Love this channel and I feel like there are Very true fans here. Being real and true never loses , its what we are lacking right now. Learn skills people , learn and learn! I mean look how far this channel has came . He didn't any of this at the beginning.
Dude I've been watching your videos since you started, recently had to make a new account and you're the first guy I resubbed to. Your videos are the best and you actually do what you say you do. It's nice
you know, it took me a few years to get that you use captions.
that's just how mesmerizing your videos are- no explanation needed, but much more richer when they are added into the mix.
I’ve loved your work from the beginning. You get more done in 13 minutes than many RUclipsrs do in an hour
Or Africa in 80 million years!
I could watch this man make fire every video every day. Just something so peaceful about it.
What I like about this channel is the truth on the human body. This man doesn't get jacked like people think this style of life would make someone into. He's lean and smart enough to make tools and equipment.
If you see someone who's buff and doing this? They're probably pretty damn dumb.
Your videos are my favorite thing on RUclips. Every time you post a new one, I get way too excited. I wish you were able to post them weekly but I obviously understand that you do it at your own pace.
The legend returns! It's fascinating watching someone just working with their hands to create something from the earth like that.
I didn't follow this channel for a whole year and come back to see wow the civilization has been updated to such high level. Next time I won't be shocked to see the test of some artillery fires. lol
I just watched this whole video without subtitles! Apparently, there are subtitles! It adds a whole new dimension. 🙂
