Here we go with the 2nd update but what else do you want to see, i'm doing my best to make these videos feel a lot different from the main ones and not use clips in both but let me know what to see in these BTS update videos. Thanks to Barrett steel for helping out with the steel, this one needs a lot more strenght adding which means a lot of steel so show em some love.
Loving the video but please start wearing a helmet
Any update you give us is golden, mate. This whole second channel is already fantastic. Was on edge the whole first time not knowing if something went wrong so these updates that you're still safe is great.
careful showing so much of your home/street Colin! plenty of weirdos and crooks out there :/ some blurring may be a good idea
The looser format is a nice change of pace! makes it feel more like natural progression videos rather than hard cut updates
@@Silent002 hehe.........coming soon
im still going to count it as a secret tunnel, even if it is the loudest tunnel of all time
I came here to basically say this, so have my like instead.
Never seen RUclips comment on a RUclips video before 😮
Google employee forgot to switch accounts on their lunch break XD
@@austinsdarkhalo they happen every so often, there not uncommon yet not common
Return dislikes
Tom's precision to not hit the gas main with an excavator is top class!
Yeah, that and its future bending is what I'm worried about. Glad it's good so far. :D
Remember Mythbusters treading a needle with an excavator. That was cool.
@@xobotun_I'm guessing they're going to have to reroute it
@@cjhowell6406they will, but it's probably easy to leave either in place for now, as they probably need special permission and crews to re route it.
Absolutley. I damaged everthing on my House 😂
Colin, out of safety of you, your family and your property I am saying this after years of watching your channel. I applaud your engineering efforts for making your home a more unique design AND as a Civil and Structural Engineer especially specialising in ground works / temp works I would be seriously remiss in being negligent in asking you to PLEASE wear a safety helmet and or some protective gear like steel cap toes. These are not hard to obtain. I would also caution you never to cut walls direction under a foundation vertically without not considering the 45 degree zone of influence and load distribution. The issue of direct cutting can cause differential settlement which is a serious undermining condition.
Safety third
if at all @@krystiancreeper213
British eccentrics don't require 'safety gear' - its a sort of rule.
Are you trying to claim that a safety tie may not be sufficient to absorb/deflect/dispell blunt force trauma and/or bad luck?
dudes got a cord wrapped round his neck while wrapping the cord over something that will keep it up, while also propping himself up made my hairs stand up, 7:29 doesnt make a complete loop but shit wouldnt even get to the near my neck part in that position fuck that.
Seeing the digger struggle makes what you've gotten done before it by hand more impressive. Can't wait for the next vid :D
Yea that was far rockier than i expected it to be.
@@RaXXha His slowpoke digger really put out a lot of pointed force, it's pretty awesome.
Idk if there's something like it on the market or in occasional use elsewhere, but I can't find "hydraulic digging spike" anywhere. I guess our civilization puts so little value on peace and quiet and so much value on speed that such a device could possibly only emerge under constraints like Furze's initial digging goals.
Getting the steel supplier as a sponsor is a masterstroke.
Plus in my experience a good metal supplier is worth their weight in gold
The weight of a metal supplier? That's a lot of gold!
@@gobbel2000 usually my metal suppliers are human and skinny/muscular. given the proposol of "their weight in gold", a good chef would be worth more. :'D
@@gobbel2000h8
worth their weight in steel at the very least
Only if the metal they're supplying is gold
Seeing the the size of the excavation at the end, I think you definitely made the right call getting the digger in.
Considering all the work to construct the proposed car elevator he's talking about putting in there it will take up a long time with that space all open and dangerous (especially with the utilities literally right overhead) as it is without having to dig it all out slowly too.
That is one of the biggest excavators I've seen with rubber tracks.
Rubber tracks are generally a lot less damaging to surfaces, particularly asphalt and lawns.
That moment you see 3 years worth of work done in a couple days, can't beat a digger and a top operator, nice work team, can't wait to see the next installment
I cannot fathom how supportive his wife must be…. Either that or she is super surprised at the giant hole and secret tunnel that appeared from nowhere lol.
he definitely doesn't live in that house anymore
@@yibbo0 IIRC correctly he said not that long ago that he got sick and slept in the bunker once so as not to get his wife sick.
Already seeing the benefits of the tunnel!@@0xRy4n
He's making money off clicks. I'm sure she's fine.
His neighbours must be equally tolerant!
Huge props to Barrett Steel for supporting the video. I work in advertising and know it can be tough for a business to take the leap and do something like that, not knowing if/when it will pay off.
if i lived in the UK i'd be using Barrett.
Ye, and you can tell they are new to online marketring, because there is no way to track clicks, leads or conversions coming from Colin other than the customer actively telling them.
I love UK
@anthonybelmonte8034. 👍 Same here
Not sure if it's in the cards or not, but it would be really cool to clean up a section of the rock and earth so the stratigraphy is really clear and easy to see, then leave that section lit up and visible through a plexiglass 'window' of sorts.
Not much stratigraphy really, since it's just a few meters. But in terms of having some of the soil/clay/rock - could be kinda cool as a reminder, for sure
@@victorsavin6414 I'd imagine condensation would be a problem.
Its also a matter of vibrations, since you wont be able to put concrete there@@Skiballer
Could make it like you say, but also hidden by a secret sliding door, so you kind of have to earn the right to see it by finding the secret door release?
He could do that with the sides of the lift, though glass weighs a lot, and PC that's thick enough too. I'd definitely use PC and not plexi.
My father in his prime was a tunneling engineer, and while he's still with my family and I, he's going downhill fast... Everytime I see Colin working on a tunnel, it makes me smile, as I think about the scale of tunnels from little ones like Colin is doing, to the grand ones my father did digging under Lake Mead Nevada... 👷♂️
My uncle owns a two mile property and he watched your tunnel videos with me and now he wants to build tunnels on his property. ( My grandfather is Scottish so my father and uncles grew up watching the classic doctor who so when I told him what I said to you he thought it was amazing so now he wants the tunnels TARDIS themed). Have a bloody good day Colin and keep digging.
YYEESSS''' 😂 tom baker' and the third' one. Pertree.😊 bigger on the "under' side"
that's freaking awesome I'd love to build a tunnel
When this is finished, I'd love to see the face on the Estate Agent who comes to value the house.
It's got to be valued as a bunker that happens to have a house whenever it would be
A bunker with zero engineering, permits or drawings. I don't think he's ever mentioned that took those steps. which means it will probably be deemed a major safety hazard. @@Ontinara
@@oshkoshbegonehe actually did talk about it. He has all the proper paper work
@@oshkoshbegone it has permits and drawings, pretty sure it started with no permits though, but he got premission for it before the first videos got released if i remember correctly. And earlier on he has shown some of the drawings that he has made
@@oshkoshbegonehe has planning permission. He spoke about it before. The council are obviously going to know about it and they'd make him fill it in if he didn't have permission
Anyone noticed that every time Colin drops a major tunnel update video certain world events happen where a bunker could be a real benefit.
I have noticed that, yes. This is the difference between someone having fun, and others NOT. In an odd way, the same things happen, but are looked at in very different ways. Perspective is the key.
the modern day wilshere goal curse
isreal or hamas? whos ur goat?
Probably why Afghanistan had an earthquake...
That’s why his wife says go for he will have a bunker
When I was a child.. this was my dream. I would fill pages and pages of designs for my underground clubhouse. I just wanted it to be big enough to be able to fit a couch. It sparked my interest in architectural engineering, so I went to school to do just that. Unfortunately it didn't work out because of my disinterest in math and other reasons. This is just a fantastic project and I appreciate you for sharing it.
Thanks for sharing that mate, take care
I’ve been working at a hotel knocking old plaster off the walls, bucketing up and carrying to my van for 2 weeks and it feels like forever.. I couldn’t even imagine how much labor and energy went into digging this tunnel, it’s crazy!
Seeing the excavator do days and weeks worth of work in mere minutes has given me a new respect for these machines
There are some excavators out there that are big enough to move as much earth in an hour that would take hundreds of miners a month. Its pretty crazy.
You can rent a smaller one and play with it. 😂
Find an excuse, they’re awesome fun.
@@WhateverpoopiepantsHired a micro JCB last weekend to dig the foundations for a Colin-style sturdy shed. Managed to do what would've been 1-2 day's worth of back-breaking labour in a few hours with barely a sweat, and I'd never used one before. So much fun too.
Have you thought about having some sort of periscope in the final build for “checking the coast is clear” before ascending in the car? Would be cool if it was disguised as a gnome. Wallace and Gromit style.
Hahaha yeah, this!!
hell yeah
This would be flippin' superb.
use a camera with a little screen, brilliant
Yeah ptz cam to mobile device. No brainer really. Gnome cam, the head goes all the demonic way round. Imagine how cool that would look.
Love the longer explanations on how things are being done and why you're doing them that way! I'd love to see you go in depth about the type of concrete and rebar placement/reinforcements.
It looks as if the sandbox we once played in as children suddenly left its boundaries and began to spread to the lands around us. Watching this video, I absolutely clearly captured that long-forgotten feeling when I was a child and enjoyed every moment of life. Thank you.
I actually program the tube lasers at Barretts steel tubes division. Im so gel of the guys that got to come and take a tour of the tunnel and bunker 😢
if colin sees this, he might give a tour
@2muchcolinfurze give this man a bunker tour!
You guys all must be great workers for Colin to use you guys for his steel. I’m sure he’ll need more steel in the future haha, maybe you’ll get another chance!
Send this lad to the furze compound asap
Let's upvote this guy! Get him a tour!
Seeing the excavator struggle gives a whole new appreciation to hand digging the tunnel. Good on ya mate!
It puts it into perspective real good.
I really enjoy the RUclips community so much and how some show others so much love
Absolutely brilliant to see the progress. There should be more people like Colin in this world. It would be so much more interesting. Keep the updates coming. Great project. Makes my bridge over river ditch project look so trivial.
Absolutely love the tunnel, I watch every update the second it comes out, such a cool project! Can't wait to see the car lift take form. And the rest of the tunnel to connect everything up!
You should consider a trap door in the center of the car lift, so you can stand under the car lift to do oil changes, exhaust work, etc.
Fabulous idea. All he needs is a four post garage lift with chequer plate over the top. Probably with taller posts.
Yes
The whole garage is probably going to need a sump pump anyway, so might as well make an inspection pit and put a pump in the bottom.
Was just thinking this too. Underground car workshop...
Happy birthday Colin! Excited to see the progress + results of this project.
Have you done a video anywhere where you explain the legality / permissions / planning aspects of the tunnel and bunker projects, because id really love to know how you managed to work it all out?! Especially the calculations for securing the ground beneath foundations etc and making sure there arent any safety issues with causing sinkholes or collapses due to shifting all that earth below ground level. Does anybody in the comments know ? TIA !
I feel that watching a man discuss his mucky shoe system whilst digging a secret tunnel under his house for a thunderbirds-style parking bay, I have reached peak internet
Yess
Colin's wife must have the patience of a saint with all projects Colin does. I mean digging up the drive must've been a hard sell
I’m sure when she sees the revenue from the video she won’t be that bothered 😅
came here to say this ^^^^, tunnel to the shed yeah that's ok, be secret neighbour's not know about it. Dig the drive up ummmmm....
My understanding is this is just the “project house” now, and they live in another (nearby) house
@@timtjtim good shout that pal
@@timtjtim That would make a lot sense. Good shout!
Dear Barrett Steel, thank you so much for working with this crazy lad helping make his dreams come true!
Tom Lamb it’s great to have found your RUclips channel too.
I look forward to watching all of your content!
Seeing how even the big excavator had trouble, ripping the stone up. I have even more respect for your progress so far!
I really enjoy the RUclips community so much and how some show others so much love
All I’m going to say that thing is small one compared to a normal excavator in an Amercian company
perfect size for this job @@matthull6205
Didn't ask
That’s exactly what I was thinking
Never have been this excited to watch someone dig a hole but here we are! Great work Colin!
I feel the exact same way, I wake up every morning since finding his channel hoping to see another Tunnel Progress video 😂
I've seen RUclipsrs dig themselves into a hole, but this is on a whole notha level!
Indeed! Go Mr. Gopher!
Why rock digging is so good to watch ? it talk to my reptilian brain I presume ^^
We are all dwarves at heart
Love the idea and effort Colin, as a welder and previously doing deep excavation for Thames water and other water companies I would suggest hard hats/general PPE and so trench support/timbers with sheets. Invaluable on rainy days trust me!
Keep on it mate
Also, I love your videos even with all the thoughts of what could happen with your house you keep going and I bet it’s gonna be amazing can’t wait to see the final video.
All I can say is, you have some VERY understanding neighbours! Great job on the digging Tom!
My guess is that they'll be wanting a slice of safety if there was ever a thermonuclear reaction in the sky somewhere close by...............
I mean... if they're doing it during the day, there's not much the neigbours can complain about right? When there's a construction right next to your house, you can't do anything about it either
What about the risk of the ground moving and undermining next door's foundation, they might have something to say about that
@@marcuswareham1if the ground moves that much then they've got bigger problems to worry about haha
My neighbors stopped greeting me because I installed an air conditioner
🤣
I like seeing this side of colin. Instead of all over the walls fun man he is. He is giving more details about what he is doing.
Absolutely loving this project Colin. Can’t wait to see the end product. Big up Newark steel, been using them for years. 👍
It may be a bit premature but have you given any thought to a drain system with a drain tile along the base of the tunnel to a sump pit with a pump to remove all the water that will eventually inundate the space? Groundwater will seek out the path of least resistance and that space is it.
Lots of fun watching this!
Colin!!!! Instead of breaking that big rock you should have hoisted it out of the hole and gotten Furze Mining Company carved into it! That would have been so cool to lay somewhere.
Some RUclips videos I watch and think "that looks so easy! I could do that!"
This project ... not a hope! All of us who dream about secret underground workshops are living vicariously through this series. Top work!
You are bonkers sir, and boy am I glad you are. This has been an amazing project from start to finish.
As a lifelong engineer I admire your SUPERB extreme projects! I am, frankly AMAZED you are not getting any cracks or settlement in your house walls? You must have worked out the digging and tunneling schedule PERFECTLY! WHERE do you get all your energy? I'll have 1 kg of what you take please😉👍👏👏👏 When you eventually move Colin (as you'll run out of space for tunnels) the buyer will one day open a cupboard and call his wife and ask "WTF is this?"😂🤣🤣😂
This is probably one of my favorite sponsorship mash ups. Colin uses so much steel.
It feela almost poetic.
Yes! I don't live in the UK, I don't need steel, but I kinda want some now.
My dad was a builder and he would tell me that when a skilled operator was on a digger, people would just stop and watch amazed at what they can do
Tom is an ace operator. I have huge respect for guys like him.
I love to see Tom in the videos. It‘s just a nice „bro“ vibe between you. Must be a great friendship.
Happy to see you pushin‘ all your projects.
It's amazing what you do, I just love all these videos and the idea of expanding the secret bunker and tunnel project! That said, I also believe that even if the metal rusts in 40-50 years, you have all the concrete outside to provide stiffness and avoid any kind of critical structural damage. By that time (even long before) the concrete itself should be enough to provide sufficient strength, to avoid the tunnel from crashing. Having read the other comments I also agree to just pouring concrete directly outside of the steel - or maybe paint the outside of the steel to provide additional rust protection although I think the concrete with rebars can uphold the structure even if all steel rusted away... Good luck, I love seeing these videos!!! 🎉
This second channel is great to really put into perspective just how much manual labor you've committed yourself to - one bucket at a time.
Colin is the type of guy to go to a beach and build an actual castle out of sand
You're there, enjoying the sea. Colin's there feeding seashells into his furnace.
He did go to the beach and build an underground bunker. Search his older vids.
Or a hole to China
He's actually done it before haha
On one of his older videos he built a hidden bunker disguised as a seaside hut
Would be great to see a concept drawing of sorts. Love these projects!
12:25, You have no idea how much I needed to hear that Colin!
Anybody else keep waiting for Colin to make his own version of a tunnel boring machine at some point? Maybe for the tunnel to the bunker I guess... Love these bts updates!
Also, Tom is a legend
He technically did with the ram device that pushes up through the ground to break sections of it off. That waste then goes into those buckets to be hauled off. When it gets farther along the track and minecraft cart will be back to transport the buckets of dirt and rock out of the whole. Which hopefully he has some taking the fill dirt for free, as it all nice clean uncontaminated dirt which can be expensive. Be a shame if he was having to pay a disposal fee for something others pay to acquire.
We all live vicariously through his tunneling, as many wish we could build such for ourselves.
Mark Rober collab when
Oh yeah! That would be great! We need more tunnels!
@@ablemagawitch His method for digging the first tunnel section was basically a reinvention of the tunnelling shield, the precursor to modern tunnel boring machines
@@LightbulbTedbear2 " His method for digging the first tunnel section was basically a reinvention of the tunnelling shield, the precursor to modern tunnel boring machines"
"All This Has Happened Before, And Will Happen Again".... He even gone back to mining with a shovel by hand. All that dirt was once above ground at some point in Earth's History and he is returning it to the top of the surface. All without a Glacier or something handy and quick(per universe time).....
Im excited for all the people who haven’t discovered this channel or the main Colin furze channel yet, as it’s going to a positive treasure trove of entertainment for them to get lost in and soak up when they do! I found Colin furze when searching how to build a proper shed some years back, imagine how I felt when I worked out why Colin needed that shed!!
I found him when I was looking for backyard bike stunts and pallet half-pipes. Fell on a recent video about this weird guy who made a wall of death from freight pallets. Instant sub. Addicted since.
I have a son now, 7yo, and he always asks to see videos of "the crazy inventor". (he also likes the "funny man who doesn't like tomatoes", but only "when he does bad shit to tomatoes")
I love the irony of this. Takes a huge engineering project and makes it seem simple, but overcomplicates the shoe choices. This is by far one fo the coolest projects I've ever seen!
I have multiple pairs of the faders as well.. love them!!
Colin has his safety tie and Jamie has his safety flip-flops. I reckon Tom has a wicked sense of humour. We need more Toms in this world!
As a Tom, I say thank you.
We don't have many because they keep dying to construction accidents :p
Rick is clearly the most sensible member of the team.
As a tom I also so thank you
Not only has Colin not heard of safety glasses, but it seems he hasn’t heard of safety boots too! As for the guy in flip flops🙈
You will deff need an exhaust system for the underground, to make sure cars starting in the underground garage do not gas you out. Will be helpful when you inevitably do larger projects in there, too! It would also be super cool if this bunker became a real bunker - with sealable doors and a high pressure hepa system (which you would keep off, when not in an emergency) to create positive pressure inside, and filter incoming air. Like a true bunker ;)
Or an electric car!
@@proxythe1337You must be new here
True ;)@@proxythe1337 Still, would be neat if it were a functional Bunker ;P
Absolutely amazing, was showing my kids the progression of the tunnels.. thing of dreams 🤩.
Amazing progress.
So happy to see another tunnel video, this is a MEGA project. Love your work Colin 🎉
Every time we get these house/tunnel modification videos I always think the same thing. Colins wife must have endless patience. If someone did this to my house they'd mysteriously disappear within a month.
Pretty sure this is a filming house only. Colin lives elsewhere.
@@Th3Pr0digalS0n It definitely used to be his house house. He may now live in a RUclipsr crib these days with a football pitched size Jacuzzi & 8 bedrooms...
@@Th3Pr0digalS0nyes, I agree. No way he lives there. Poor neighbours though.. looks like a terraced house.
Honestly if you've watched him long enough, you know she must in order to handle him in general. Lol. Takes a special kind of person to stick with such a mad man! She probably enjoys it to some extent or it wouldn't happen...
Depends on the wife. The fact the husband is happy, the kids have something to be excited about, hubby's hobby is making money, adding to the house value (Seriously, put a pool in and it's game over) and, likely most importantly giving the family more space to spread could mean a lot.
That being said........ I find the idea of the look on Colin's wife's face leaving one morning to return to a pit in the front deeply (groan) amusing. I doubt that's the case, but you never know.
Very serious amount of work doing all of this. Great job! Take a long break when it’s done!
Thank you to the sponsors
Back in the 1980s I organised a lot of water mains repairs at a power station. Cast iron into gravel isn’t a good mix. The JCB 3C driver was absolutely amazing. He could feel the smallest “oddities” through the controls. He stopped for a phone cable and another time for some rotten timber. He never damaged anything we didn’t want dug anyway. Other drivers, when he wasn’t available, were just plain destructive. So we always waited for the top chap.
Colin, your mucky shoes and transition problem is common on the farm. Rubber boots come in various forms intended for either heavy much or convenience (shorter boot leg typically, for easy slipping off and on). Also you can set up a boot brush (which you can just make with some brushes) and a debris catching mat at the threshold.
And no hard hat, no glasses. Mildly infuriating but that's his signature :)
@@pierredelagrave I think you'll find it's the lack of his signature safety tie that is the real problem.
If Colin builds a boot brush, it'll have a motorcycle engine and flame throwers - hopefully.
@@robinbennett5994using a water jet seems like a fairly natural idea for something like that
@@pierredelagraveI'm Actually surprised the local OSHA doesn't bust his balls over all the safety violations. Britain is nuts for this kind of Over-regulation.
amazing to see this amount of progress in one short video! keep it up YA GOOD LAD!
Another crazy/awesome project! Love the progress updates. PS Please add more Furze Mining Co. shirts! 🙏
How he kept that gas line intact is beyond me. Great operator!
There is a big chance that they did shut off the gas supply at the street level during the digging to be sure. (or asked the utility company to do so)
You still will have to try and not hit it but it will lower the risk of fire.
Luckily plastic, but still not good when split!
Clenching but cheeks works
Tom is very skilled with that digger. I'm actually more impressed by how he was able to gently nudge the timelapse camera without even bumping into the tunnel it was in. That's centimeter precision with a massive machine. Insane.
@@sirBrouwer there is no way the gas board would turn that off it’s only a service not a high pressure gas main 😂
Awesome work Colin and Tom. No hiding it from the planning inspectors this time! 😂😂
Gotta wonder how he convinced the council to let this slide - are they perhaps fans of the Furze mining co.?
Exelent work... Continue, we are waiting more...
re-watching these. well done Colin
Honestly Love the Secret Tunnel Progress Videos!
I don't care about getting this done faster, I want Insight into your doing. The Snappy Supercuts on the main channel are great, but this is preem content.
With the way the dirt and clay looks under there, you could easily build your own Catacombs. Before we know it Colin will have built an entire underground facility!
Underground Furzility!
In a thousand years archeologists will dig this all up and speculate about our society and our religious beliefs based on this
Keep posting videos like this Furze the builder, building his underground Empire. Love it. Lets advance from the Stone age to the Metal age the hard way.
You have seriously nailed the human algorithm on how to make videos. You are one of the few channels that I don’t skip through because you constantly keep it changing and interesting. Great job!
Funny term, 'human algorithm'
I am so glad you created this second channel for these videos. I love seeing the more long form version of the process.
This video suppress the quality of main channel by miles.
Love the black coating in long main tunnel. It is right shade of black and the finish looks like satin. It's not too dark or too dull. Overhead lights concentrates it along long walkway.
You don’t have any friends do you ?
Love these videos! I hope the health and safety team are enjoying their holidays... (again...)
Colin is the perfect balance of insanity and genius, you can almost see him teetering on the edge at times 😂 I don't know if he's lucky or cursed to have soil like that, living at see level all we've got is sugar sand and water. I'd live underground if I lived there, awesome content man!
I am so so so paranoid that Colin is gonna cave in his whole driveway but I also can't wait for each updated video and to see the progress!! LOVE LOVE this channel!!!!!
To see how he just randomly lets all the main supply lines to his house freely hanging. Thats my main concern lol
I find the gas line flapping around in the breeze, 6 inches from a toothed excavator shovel, much more anxiety inducing
Professionally they shore the sides to ensure they don't give way and crush anyone working down there. Colin's not even wearing his safety tie!
@@Shocker99 oh I know I see it in the videos and if memory serves Colin has even covered it more than once about the safety aspect of it all. However a 4' wide tunnel is a far cry from a 15-20' wide and deep driveway! Just don't want to see it all come crashing down! (pun intended of course)
@@justalonelypoteto yeah I saw that one too lol 🤣
Was walking a new route to the tube station the other week and saw that someone had installed a car lift in their front garden. It looked so cool raising up.
If I ever win the lottery, I'm having one installed.
Your tunneling project is so fun. I have dreamt of having those for 60 years. I’ll have to enjoy vicariously. Thanks.
Colin, you need to find or make a shoe cover that can be removed without the need to take the shoes off. Lots of layers a bit like the visor tear-off strips on an f1 helmet but that covers the whole shoe.
I'd love to see you wear a helmet in the non-reinforced bits. TBI is no joke, and all it takes is one rock at jut the right (or wrong?) time.
Thanks for sharing the progress here! It's really fun to watch.
I agree. Colin: Safety ties may be what you started your channel with, but we all care more about your wellbeing than any joke, no matter how long running.
To be fair there’s nothing to fall on him now Mr Lamb has been let loose! Safety tie it is then!
All I keep thinking is, my wife shakes her head at all my home projects.... you family must think you are certifiably nuts!!! lol I LOVE IT !
Thank you tom for your hardwork i subscribed to your channel 😊
Been following you and this project for years as a teen and now I’m 21 and am an operator myself. This was my favorite video yet! Tom did a great job!👏🏾
Incredible precision on that massive and powerful machine, fantastic job, Tom!
Yup.
The things a skilled professional can do with these massive machines is, for lack of a better word, incledible.
I've seen people open a soda can with them.
Holy 💩, that some effort and Toms precision 👏
I'm not surprised, but yet I am still amazed.
That last scene with the tunnel and the hole is fantastic! Looks like you uncovered some kind of hidden tunnel 🤪 cheers for these behind the scenes. Always very satisfying and I still cant believe your actually doing it!
Imagine when we have died off and you just come to earth and Just found a ruin of his house then you find the tunnel rusty and caving in at parts
This is the kind of content the Furze fans needed! Loved seeing the digger at work. 👍
It's always exciting to see what comes up next.
a few weeks of hand work done in minutes by machine hahah I'm 100% living vicariously through Mr. Furze on this project!
AWESOME! Love this stuff. I am in the residential (mostly) construction industry for the past 3 decades and I have never seen this sort of endeavour, outside of commercial projects. Well done, Colin. Loving this series.
I just love watching this!! Colin's realising the dream that so many of us had when we were younger....and many still have, now?? Hadn't thought about the 'project house' concept but makes perfect sense - it sure is the best 'play house' you could ever have!!
Thank you for the content! Enjoying it from Temple, Texas, USA.
I do appreciate multiple pairs of faders!
watching tom do, like, 6 hours work in a single scoop of the digger made me realise how mental the fact you've done the rest of it without one is
massive props to yah furze
