I'm sorry you already did show the road grading. the dock was what people turned on to see. Not you play road grader....!!!
Would love to see a map or drawing of the big off grid property so we'd have an idea as to where the pond is, the beaver dam, the home site and the Container cabin sit.
Yes, a plot map of the property would be so informative and helpful! Wouldn't need to show where the property is, if that's a concern, but would give us a much better idea of your homestead!! Understand the need for your safety! Love the progress!!!
I don't advise sharing the plot map. Everyone is not nice.
I'm curious, how would drawing a plot map, be dangerous! Not asking fo a map of your location, only a idea of your property's layout! Would never put your family at risk!
@@soniaspangenberg8557 Exactly what I was thinking.
.
Sorry, but I think it a bit forward to ask for this information. Be satisfied with what they feel secure enough to share.
.
These days a plot could be used in satellite imagery to find your property.
.
Better safe than sorry.
God bless you and keep you safe!
@@soniaspangenberg8557 what,does that mean?
A emergency key on each of the machines is a good idea for those working in the middle of nowhere. A combination box attached in a spot you can access like inside an unlocked access panel would let you still run the equipment even if you lose the main keys and in an emergency someone else can bring a machine if it is needed like to recover the tractor or mini if you do end up getting one of them stuck.
Same idea as putting a bigger key lock box inside the shipping container for all the equipment and the truck.
In getting ready for winter a 6 way blade that can do an offset can be a big help to keep the road in clear of snow even if you are mostly using the plow to clear it as the blade with the offset can be used to push the snowbanks back with the tractor not at risk of sliding off the road. Pushing back the snow when it build up will give you more room to pile up snow without needing to drive insanely fast to throw the snow off the plow to get over the banked snow.
The grass around the pond is mowed. There is a great dock...so when do the invites to the youtube fans come? LOL Hope you all enjoy your hard work
Yeah, I guess when we're prepared to stand knee-deep in mud with a shovel, or clean out the chicken-coop...etc...It ain't all glamor!! 😆
@David Hale David no one is been disrespectful, they are concern that Al will be doing harm to the pond. They may know more about how ponds work than Al. Like the old saying "If it isn't broken don't fix it"
SOMEONE in the past knew how to build that pond to match the lay of the land & have a healthy pond.
@@chris3m98 It's Al's pond. If he wants to get a dozer and cover it up, it's his business.
I know he has a love of nature and enough sense not to damage what he has been prepared to save.
We don't need any Karen's here.
@David Hale No one is telling him what to do. Many are suggesting ... raising the level of the pond is a BAD idea for many reasons, however Al will do what he thinks best... then learn from his mistake.
@David Hale This is true. One channel I follow the poor (single mother of an autistic toddler) lady gets a lot of hate, phone calls and even on her doorstep (requiring her to move). Another channel only posted the part of IN they lived, and had some one show up on their door while they were out of the home. It's scary. I'm sure 99.9% of Al's subscribers would be perfectly okay to know where he is at, but there is the small percent who could be dangerous, especially for his wife & daughter.
That is awesome that you are building your own dock! One advice I have though it to change out the blue barrels for actually square dock floats. They will last longer, be more stable walking on and those blue barrels have a potential of coming part from the dock itself within a few years depending on weather (ice build up, etc). I work for a dock company which is why I am giving the suggestion. Still super cool to see people taking the time to build their dock!
Morning Lumnahs! On the drive back to your pond, I think I saw a squatch in the woods ....looked like he was eating a donut.😅
It’s good your pipe extension didn’t fit. I think that’s way too high to raise the water level. Just a few inches makes a big difference.
🤣🤣🤣
Your barrels are going to push your deck and warp them and make them uneven. Support barrels on beams. Ask me how i know.
use metal galvanized pipe straps to hold barrels in place? Reinforce deck structure above the barrels with 2x6 screwed flat under deck boards
@@andreewert1142 Hi how are you?

Good morning, Lumnah family!
Just curious, Al, you are leaving a crown in the center, when grading your roads, right? Loving your progress!
God Bless!
I was wondering the same thing. Can you even tilt the box?
* I don't see ditches. Would that make a crown pointless? *
Try a 8” Fernco Coulping….it’s a Rubber coupling with stainless steel bands…get a piece of 8” sch 40 pvc pipe the length you want…connect the two with the coupling and your done…local plumbing supply company should have everything you need
Added benefit is you could raise the pond by a few inches at a time by starting with the coupling low and a 4-5" piece of solid PVC pipe tight down against the existing pipe with most of the rubber coupling on metal pipe, then if you still want it higher, loosen the rubber coupling bottom clamp and raise it up a couple inches and re-tighten that lower clamp. I really don't believe you want to raise the pond a foot, but perhaps you are right; just try raising it a smaller amount first and let it set at each height for a week before doing more until you are sure. I know you could do the opposite by using too high a pipe and cutting it down, but then you risk compromising the dam or killing the trees along the edge before you realize it's too high.
I'd get a DNR hydrology person to give some feedback. If you raise the pond too much, you may cause flooding when there's heavy rains. We've all seen the news reports in Europe what damage happens when bodies of water top their banks. Flash flooding is destructive when it has nowhere to safely runoff.
I was going to suggest the same thing. The ones I found were rated for both PVC and cast iron piping and were less than $30. He will need to connect a short sleeve or a ring on top to keep water pressure from collapsing the Fernco over time. We already know how he understands water pressure. He won't listen.

Get some 100% clear silicon and seal those caps on the ends of the barrel, and keep the caps horizontal so the are out of the water. I see its your first time building a dock Al.
I love your mentoring spirit, Stanley Keith! They truly deserve it!💜
Tilt you scraper/box blade put a crown in your drive/road center keeps the water off better for drainage etc !
Steve La Londe Jr. , I am thinking along those same lines. I'm not an expert but it appeared to me that the box scraper is/was removing the crown of the road. The crown of the road is what provides the drainage off the road.
@@donaldmiller8629 I grew up on dirt roads rural area farm country NW OH near IN & MI so understand a little plus have a little back ground in excavation & water well drilling & repair. I'd be looking at a rock crusher there envious of that setup !
@@stevelalondejr2183 ,
Al has 500 acres there and he's in New Hampshire . It's just possible that he may have his own source of gravel on his land. And yes , he does have lots of rocks that could be crushed. Rock walls or crushed into gravel , those rocks could be useful.
@@donaldmiller8629 Hi how are you?
@@stevelalondejr2183 Hi how are you?
Don't know if you read the comments and I don't profess to be an expert, but when you dug out for the concrete, you hit ground water at no great depth, surely raising the pond level will also raise the ground water level, around the pond at least, don't think that sounds like a good idea.
By the way Al, could you please stop slapping the camera at the end of each scene...it's BLOODY ANNOYING 🥴
Huh, I thought it was clever.
Al, you work so hard on your road, but there is no crown or ditches to allow the run off to escape. If you can adjust the box spreader to off-set so one side barely touches and goes deeper towards the end to create a crown. No tires will normally run down the middle, but its important to get the water off the road and into a drainage ditch. Annoying as they are, water breaks serve a very good purpose.
Good Morning . I Love watching you two as a team work together :) I think you are going to put in a pad for the Barn and getting ready to move your animals to the new property. You excitement and joy on your face brings me joy with my morning coffee :) Blessings to you all :)

It's okay, Al. I've had moose in my yard in Anchorage, and deer in my yard here in Sitka. I've also had bear in my yard; and they weren't those little black bears, either. I'm good. But I understand it is a thrill to be close to them critters and that many people have never seen them, so for their sake I hope you get some on camera. 😊
Even Gina used to be camera shy . Its matter of time while bears get used to the camera and soon
you could have them helping Al around the property !
I personally would’ve put sealant around the threads regardless of the O-ring it’s kind of one of those things you don’t wanna have to pull back out of the water because of that that’s just my humble opinion

@@samvalentine3206 Hi Sam!
I think I've seen people making these before and use some nylon net to hold the barrels in place should anything knock into them. It's probably necessary on a big lake or the sea -you may not need it. They may be worth fitting to avoid having to do this later. I've said before, I've heard pockethole screwed wood is stronger because you're not screwing into the end grain - lets hope it holds out for you!
Put a little wood ladder attached to the dock so a person can more easily get up out of the water. Not only more fun, but an important safety feature in the chance of an accidental swim by smaller persons.
Like a pool ladder or a boat ladder 🪜🤔👍🙂
@Tom Reichardt Hi how are you?
I want to see when you put that Dock in the water
There may be valid and important reason for the standpipe being located at its current height. The space you intend to fill with more water may be there to catch runoff from heavy rains.
That's a good observation you made 👍
Agree 100% you don't want it flooding
I believe it provides a buffer so the pond will have capacity to.hold the short term gain (from a good rain)and then meter it out. If Al removes this buffer then when it overflows it will possibly breach the dam. Once the dam is breached then erosion will exacerbate the rate of discharge and in a extreme case drain the pond. I’d not mess with this!
Why are you guys looking at the "extremes" of what might happen? There has to be a "very doable midpoint", that will create a bigger and better pond without any flooding issues! Lol...the pond won't drain out, it has a couple springs that continually fill it! If the remote chance of flooding does occur, do you really think that Al would let any erosion occur!
Morning from east of Atlanta GA.... High humidity.!!!!!
Good morning 🌅☕️
AWESOME video guys .....LOVED it.....ALWAYS GREAT videos...GOD BLESS !!!!!!!!
I was trying to think how to say this ... but, the cat tails are invasive and will quickly take over the pond ... Unfortunately, you must pull every one of the stinking things. Much work, but a much better pond as a result!!
The property has been vacant for 30 years and they haven’t taken over the pond.

When a deck goes into the water its called a dock.
Bolt into each corner would be better. Or drill and add dowel perpendicular at the ends, say 30mm from the end, to avoid screwing just into end grain

@Rudolph Gutierrez Hi how are you?
Nice Dock :) Fill the Drums with Expanding foam and use the cap, should never have to worry about a drum ever cracking and leaking, Just my 2 cents worth :)
Al, I understand why you want to keep your location secret - HOWEVER - those of us watching are finding it harder and harder to understand which areas are where. I’m guessing that once you enter your drive that we would come to the pond site first and that would be on your left. Continuing on a considerable distance you enter the big clearing with the water source to your right. No idea where the pesky beaver site is. Help us out buddy
I completely understand what you are saying but their safety is much more important then us knowing the layout of their land. I have heard about so many people showing up to other you tubers houses and putting their families in danger and I would hate for that to be a reality for Al and family too.
Thank you Tony Grimes. This puts everything into perspective.
You know that gorgeous view? I hope your new house gets a cool deck or something up high where you can raise a glass at the end of the day 🙂

I forgot, where are you? We're getting excited for you for the pond deck finish. Wouldn't it be nice if you could have a sandy beach area (maybe too expensive). But you do need a swim-suit changing building for sure. Especially if your daughter wants to have friends come over. A thought:> Bring the container building up to a location for the pond? Very much enjoy all your videos. They go very well with my morning coffee! LOL LOL Thanks. We love you guys.
Appendix.. That's a plastic pipe plug not a pot and its ill advised to raise the water level in the pond more than few inches since the embankments aren't that high in the first place. Plus the trees/plants on the banks will die being inundated by higher levels as they grew there at its current height should be considered as well...
It's a spring fed pond and is considered a Natural Resource. Even in New Hampshire permits are required to change the flow. Federal Wetlands Regulations apply on Private Property.
It's your pond AL, do what you want with it and screw the nazi's that don't like it .
And your not changing the flow , just the height . It's the same amount going in and out .
To Brent P. Played the N Card quite fast didn't you but owing land doesn't mean there aren't rules especially about Water and there far from being arbitrary. Many have found out that Water that crosses their property can't be diverted, held by a dam, and most important used as a sewer for what ever you throw into it doesn't belong to them. Indeed more than once land owners have been fined/jailed because sine they didn't follow the rules and Raparian Rights are just as enforceable even when it comes to even a State/County. Al should see if he's allowed to raise the water level since it's still a diversion as well as how much he can use since it flows off the property means he can't just take all of it letting others downstream get less. Sorry to pop your balloon but the rules about a Septic System and agricultural waste from animals are even more rigid since they cost lives when done wrong even off the grid. Indeed Private Lanfd is still in a County/Parish or under some Legal Entity and though in unincorporated areas the Law still applies on it and the few that are everywhere are about Water more than anything else.

Should have filled up the barrels with foam!
@Thomas Kapetantsis Hi how are you?
I'm guessing that a barn is coming soon. We'll just wait and see.
We built an 8x10 floating dock using styrofoam buoyancy billets which, if punctured, will never leak and fail like the drums will. Also, it rides lower than Al's. We've had it for about 5 years now without any problems. Al keeps saying "look at that view" but the view is not much when looking through the camera. I'm sure it must be pretty when looked at in person.
I was wondering How you gonna fix barrels to deck?, Shouldnt 1st priority be building a barn for all the machines, and other items you will be putting on new site, Before winter sets in!!, could make a nice 1 near the trees,!! or get some 2 containers, spread them out like Diesel Creek has, and put a roof from 1 to the other, more important than building a Smoke house and Floating docks!!. hope all youre machines have Trackers on them. Thanks for the videos from UK.
Those barrels will not hold up over time. You’d be better off purchasing dock flotation made for that purpose. They come in varies sizes to support different weight docks. Four 4’ x 4’ x 12 inch dock flotation devices would easily support that dock with twenty people on it.
Hopefully You Will Use The Piece's Of Lumber You Cut Off To Maybe ... Make A Bird House 😺

are you using floating deck screws?
@hans hofer Hi how are you?
Goooooood Evening Al , Gina & Olivia ,
Oh man ! I have some toxic mosquitos ! I got some super size skeeter bites this evening. I'm wondering. Will you need to remove the floating decks from the pond for the winter ? I know that those cattails look cool. But , the dense root systems collect silt. Over time they will spread all the while collecting silt. Next thing you know , they have filled in the pond and no more pond !
I once had a small backyard pond that I made. About 15' x 8" and I thought it looked nice with some cattails in it. Within about two years there was no pond. Only cattails. I'll tell you , it was a major job to get those cattails out of the pond.
By the way Al, you ought to secure your more expensive mechanicals like your tractor with something more than just the cab door/ignition key now that you are improving the road into your new 500 acre off-grid homestead. You don’t want it to ‘walk-off’ on you.
I liked it better when you walked around the blu barrels with the channel locks.
