It´s great with extra stones for heating, I also put some extra in my fireplace to help retaining heat. If it´s a cold night I sometimes wrap one of them in a piece of cloth and put in the bed 🙂 Black wood stove polish is great, it always looks great after a treatment!
Nice to see you working with your hand tools. Everyone underestimates just how much you can still get done without electricity and battery. I have been collecting them since I was a teenager.👍
I really like the boulders with the moss, it looks like a natural border. I think cutting back some of the young trees will have to be done every few years to stop the forrest reclaiming ground. Great video again.👍
Twelve years ago we bought an old, overrun farm. It was a lot of work getting it cleaned up, especially the places they dumped things and then they just became grown over. Ten years later you wouldn't have recognized it. It was all clean lines and trimmed trees. It was beautiful. It's worth all the work, but it is a lot of work. You're doing great!
Sure, that's what all newcomers do - bring in tractors, excavators, bulldozers, ATVs, chainsaws .. start cutting trees and grass, make tons of noise and mud, create a kind of artificial "civilized" buffer zone around their place killing everything natural, and then proudly call it beautiful, lol.
I made my compostbins from pallets. I have 2 in die and 1 empty as you have to turn over the compost after a year...pallets are wonderfull to sur fit almost everything. Even to put your firewood on for drying ... Hard work man👍
My grandmother used to heat rocks on the stove too. It worked well! Sometimes she would pull a flat stone off the stove and put it in the bed to keep her feet warm.
💕Sheets of strong plastic make really good fronts for compost bins💕Remember to put your coffee grounds onto your compost if you have a local coffee shop near you they will often keep their coffee grounds if you supply them with an empty bucket💕Next time empty compost bin A on top of bin B as it will help decompose the twigs down faster giving you an empty bin for the next lot💕
Well done with the compost bins. And you have a lot of lovely vegetation to add to it. The stone wall is just amazing! I miss living in New England and enjoying all the similar seasons and surroundings that you have. Your area is beautiful!
Marcus, good morning. It’s good to see you working on your property. Two compost bins are a good thing. You will have some black gold in the spring. The stove looks great. I love the moss covered rocks on your property. I would make them a feature in a garden😊 Marcus, if you put some earth and dried leaves on top of the green side, it will hasten the decomposition of the green material.
You should look out for what we call a Stanley screwdriver, it has a forward and reverse but just uses force for rotation. I'm not sure if you've seen it, but very handy and easy to use.👍
Hi Marcus, thank you for your wonderful videos, I am enjoying them very much. Your house is in beautiful surroundings. Can you tell me why the red colour of your house is so widely used in Scandinavian countries please? All the houses and buildings look lovely. You have inspired me to do some more work in my garden today. Jenny
We are enjoying getting to know you a bit and watching you build your dreams. We think you are going to be very successful Marcus and we thank you for inviting us to watch and learn with you. From an older couple just outside Phoenix, AZ. p.s. how much land do you own there? Looks to be about an acre?
Since it burns through the wood so fast wondering if you’ll be putting a bigger unit in in another room? Love the old wood cooking stove but sure a bigger one would last longer, just curious
Great compost bins...you can tirn them over periodically and thay makes decompose rapidly. Not sure why you are cutting the small trees ...maybe you have plans for that space
Hey Marcus, first of all thank you for your great videos. I love watching your videos. Beautifully relaxing and interesting at the same time. Please continue :). And then I wanted to ask what it is like in Sweden in terms of freedom on your own property? Are the building laws in Sweden strict? In Germany, for example, you have to get permission if you want to build a small garden shed or even if you want to cut down a tree. Greetings from the rule country Germany
Om du vill slippa lägga på ved stup i kvarten så prova att göra om den så du kan elda pellets i den. Jag har gjort så och det brinner uppåt 5-7 timmar beroende på hur jag ställer in luftflöde och vad det är för väder ute.
@@MarcusStorm Bara fråga om du undrar något :) sotaren trodde inte jag ens eldat i köksspisen för kanalen var i princip ren, sanningen är att jag eldat hela vintern med pellets. Man får visserligen experimentera lite, jag använder både 6 och 8 mm, lägger olika lager för att få olika luftgenomströmning, det gäller att få det att brinna med blå låga då blir det som varmast och räcker längst. Hos mig ligger det en tegelsten i asklådan för att minska flödet av luft och i botten på gallret ligger två järnplattor så endast den yttersta springan i gallret är öppen. Mot luckan sitter en anpassad järnbit och eldfast isolering likaså bakåt mot rökgången :) Då kan jag bara lyfta plattan och lägga pelletsen ovanifrån och tända samma väg :)
I like your videos. But for me it would be more appealing if you said or write more about what you are doing. Like I'm going to build .... now im watching someone sawing and maybe at the end I get to know what it is you're doing. 🤷🏼♀️
19:13 - cutting a rowan brings bad luck .. at least that's what our wise men say up here. May I ask you something .. did you cut those rowan trees because they got in your way somehow .. or you were just bored and had nothing else to do? Anyway thumbs down for that 👎✌

Troligen bättre med en stor gryta full med vatten som radiator, dessutom går det att använda vattnet till div andra saker.

I love the weekends when my favorite people share their videos that motivate me to get working on my place. Thank you.

Hard work man👍
My feed is inundated with "We bought a house in xxxx and we transformed it"
These are by far my favourite. Simple and understated.
Thanks you! Really glad you like it
Your attention to detail is showing through.. looks amazing. Nearly there to be in before the heavy snows. 👌
I love that you're exposing the rock fissure.
My grandmother used to heat rocks on the stove too. It worked well! Sometimes she would pull a flat stone off the stove and put it in the bed to keep her feet warm.

Enjoyed your video Marcus👌🏼👌🏼love the moss covered rocks and your stove looks much better too🙂
Awesome thank you!
Recommend loppers for cutting small branches. Good job markus 👏

Thank you so much! The land isn't very big. It's 2383 sq m which is about 0,6 acres
very good! Thanks

I don't have anything against power tools, use mine all the time.👍

Marcus, i love your coffee mug. Is it wood? And is it olive wood?😀
In Sweden we have the tradition of making mugs (Kåsa) from Birch wood.
Bra tips med stenarna, kan vara bra vid strömavbrott,
looks like wisconsin🍂🤎
👍
Curious as to why you didn't just back your van up to where you wanted that wood, and jut pitch it out of the back???
Great compost bins...you can tirn them over periodically and thay makes decompose rapidly.

hi marcus! can i ask if the stones you're putting on the stove are a special type or could one just use any type of stone for this? thank you ❤
If you put branches in your compost, it will take way too long to decompose. I wouldn’t put branches in the compost.
I really enjoyed watching his video, we're you watching from?

Hello. Can you please turn on captioning on your videos? Thanks.
Whats with the "old" building in the back?

Aldrig hört talas om det. Men låter ju intressant, ska kolla in det lite närmare

Hello Marcus
Please you tell me the type of product you used on the stve black stuff cheers
Don’t know the English word for it. It’s called Spissvärta here. www.gysinge.com/products/3493/gammeldags-spissvärta
