  • *Available in HD - We finally decided to do some exterior improvements to our mountain camp. Up first is creating a mountain stone fire ring beneath the shag bark hickory. But before we get to building, we have to dismantle our previous attempt and level some ground.

    Another nice video. I would only recommend keeping in mind an air draft channel to alleviate the smoke in the face syndrome while sitting around a fire ring. A definitive draw and exit can save you from the stinging eyes and harsh fumes without having to constantly move your chairs every time the breeze shifts.

    There is no other option for a hard work !!!
    Keep doing well.

    Now go find some clay and pack it around the fire pit rocks, good video boys.

      +Stephen Bradley Funny you should say that. Part of me was hoping I'd hit a vein while I was digging. I have lots of plans when I do find some clay.

    Excellent job! can't wait to see part 2. I would add sand around your fire pit it will help keeping it clean and non flammable.

    Cool video! Maybe slap together some solid bench seats around the fire pit if you have company quite often?

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors

      +blaynoo Yep we plan to make some benches and a table.

    great video krik, depending on the sheer size of your ring you can get you a more defined fire ring by get a heavy truck rim or even tractor tire and cut the center out and have a good size ring, add a couple vertical poles for a spit, or turn it into a Sante fe' grill. so much different things you can do.

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      +Galen Long Great ideas Galen. Thanks bud. We are planning to use the rocks we have (there's a lot in the mountains!). I'm not familiar with a Santa Fe grill.

    • @galenlong8022
      @galenlong8022 7 лет назад

      A santa fe' grill is just one that can be raised and lowered by a spit.

    Too cool Crick. The benches and Table are gonna tie it all in, especially if you can make them, for the most part, yourselves. Maybe a consideration would be when it rains or snows which way the runoff flows? Looks like a great spot to get right. :)

    I really enjoy your videos. You may want to build a fire deflector if you plan to have fires in the winter depending on what part of the country you are in. Good luck with the project and have fun out there.

    great simple day out. How about a multi system cooking setting. Eg:- a spit and possibly a drum baking oven. Plenty of room by the looks of it.
    Would love to see an outdoor type of kitchen build. Start with a bushcraft table perhaps? Atb

    • @craigmooring2091
      @craigmooring2091 7 лет назад

      @Black Owl Outdoors That's what I figured, actually, because all the Work shots were pretty short and clearly representational.

  • @frankdaly2168
    @frankdaly2168 7 лет назад

    Hey Krik, yes, good video. I also miss the therapeutic benefits of manual labor. maybe while you are at this stage you can make some holes for a couple of poles so you can make a spit across the fire pit.

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      +Frank Daly Hmm good idea. Are you planning to have a spit on yours? I never really used one.

    • @frankdaly2168

    Might be a good idea to think about rain runoff from the hill. Erosion is going to be an issue

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      +RyanJKUS2012 Yea we considered that. The property has pretty good drainage as is. I don't think it will be an issue where we are working. But we are thinking about building a small retaining wall on the down side for good measure.

    What about the tree roots? I've heard other say that the roots could shoulder along their length, eventually reaching the tree and destroying it. Possibly catching it on fire.

    stony gets out of the hard work by holding the camera? seems like a fair division of labour haha. looks like a great spot. i always plan on relaxing completely while at the family cottage but seem to find something to make improvements on every visit which keeps me busy.

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      Ha! He helped the entire time. I just didn't film him working. Working hard is relaxing, when you're doing the work you want!

  • @LoneStarLiving
    @LoneStarLiving 7 лет назад

    Good old fashioned work. Good video y'all. Besides moving the fire ring what are y'all wanting to accomplish?

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      Probably level out a few other small areas around the fire pit. Maybe do some work in the back field so tents can sit flat. Not exactly sure yet.

  • @MrClicklight
    @MrClicklight 7 лет назад

    Really liked your video and I'm looking forward for the second part. Maybe you can spray paint some big rocks different colours,which will make the fire pit will look awesome at night.By the way,is that a new sheath for your fieldmaster or you added a flap?Seems really nice ;)

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад +1

      Good eye! Not a new sheath for the Fieldmaster, new sheath for the Tech Tool. The sheath will be in a few upcoming videos.

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      Both. There's only one neighbor. One house is ours, the other is just a hunting camp.

    Are you going to add pavers around it for a level permanent spot for chairs and such?

      Probably not. We're thinking of letting it go natural. But no decisions will be made until it all settles.

      When in high school pupils were asked what they wanted to be.
      I said a brickies laborer. I was looked at strange.
      I wanted to work outdoors, not in an office.
      I ended up leaving school and became a bricklayer (started before 17 yo) and loved to chip and help out laboring.
      Setting up, loading up, scaffolding the hole lot.
      Worked with hundred of different bricklayers on BIG (800 000 bricks) to small jobs.
      Even though I was still young (early 20's)I liked to teach the wippersnappers all the little tricks :)
      But alas, a back injury from when I was 11 put an end to it :(
      Those were the days, midday on a concrete slab with no breeze 40 degrees C (over 100F).
      Laying bricks in winter bare handed with frost on them.
      Be careful what you wish for ;)

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      +CedricAda Gear and Outdoors I hear ya. But I'll leave that work to the youngins these days! I've done my share of long days with a tool in my hand. But you're Aussie, tougher than the rest.

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      +Stewart Buckley Injuries are the worst. Most people I've worked with doing hard physical labor had chronic injuries. Either because of poor form, or from an accident. Either way, I'm happy I can still do this work without pain.

      Black Owl Outdoors I have bad hips not only from stupid things done when young (not broken) but exacerbated from getting of scaffold onto concrete. A quick hop off only 4/5 feet or so seem OK. Over time NOT !
      BTW Im Aussie as well :/
      As for the 11 YO injury, I was pushed of spiral slippery slide (around 10ft) and landed on my back. The rest of my injuries are MY fault.

    So does your family own all those small buildings and the house, or are there neighbors?

    • @BlackOwlOutdoors
      @BlackOwlOutdoors  7 лет назад

      Yes we own some of the small buildings, and yes there are neighbors. But one neighbor is only a hunting camp.

    • @smokymountainoutdoorsman1991
      @smokymountainoutdoorsman1991 7 лет назад

      Cool. Ever do any hunting? I guess you'd have some pretty good sized deer and black bear up that way.
