Primitive Technology: A-frame hut
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- I built an A frame hut as a large work space for projects. First I made a celt hatchet to cut timber for the hut. The axe head was made of amphibolite and the handle was made of a species of wattle. For the hut the floor plan was 4 X 4m. The height of the ridgeline was 2 m above the ground. +A post was planted in the ground to support the ridge pole at the back of the structure and an A frame was put in the front to support the ridgeline. The rafters of the hut were then attached to the ridgepole. Palm fronds were then collected, split and lashed to this frame. The dome hut was disassembled and its thatch was added to the structure. Approximately 1200 fronds were used in total. For the ridgeline, thatch was lifted in place and rested on without lashing it down. Instead, pairs of sticks lashed together were lifted in place sitting over thatch preventing it from blowing away. These are known as “jockeys” as they resemble a rider sitting on a horse.
A wall of wattle and daub was built at the back of the structure. Wooden poles were planted into the ground and lawyer cane was woven between them. Soil was dug from around the hut forming drainage trenches while also supplying the mud used to daub the wall. No fibre was added to the daub, just straight mud. Pegs were stuck into the wall to form a convenient rack to hold the stone axe off the ground when not in use. Later, pegs were added to support the fire sticks too. A bed was made by hammering in wooden stakes and lashing timber to the frame. This was covered with palm fibre to act as bedding. Atherton oak nuts were then collected and eaten/stored in a pot. Latter, heavy rain fell testing the huts ability to shed rain. The hut stayed dry while the water flowed off the thatch and into the drainage trenches left over from digging the mud for the wall.
The A frame hut is a simple shelter that can be built quickly and simply. It’s basically a large roof built directly on the ground. The shape is strong and should resist strong winds. This hut is the biggest one I’ve built on this channel and could fit both the tiled roof hut and wattle and daub hut inside it with room left over along the sides. It requires no scaffolding or ladders to build. A person can walk right down the centre without ducking while the sides that are too low to stand in are used for storing firewood, tools and other things. A fire lit in the entrance will greatly reduce the number of mosquitoes in the hut though it will get smokey occasionally. To reduce smoke, a small stove could be built to burn the wood more efficiently. A chimney and fireplace could be built also, but would take more time.

I have no face book page, instagram, twitter etc. Beware of fake pages.
there's something just very satisfying about watching a random dude who doesn't talk build primitive stuff and I have no idea why
Humanity lived in tribal communities alot longer than we lived on farms or cities. It's In our DNA to feel good about this stuff.
If you want to turn on captions while you watch his videos he puts a few notes there about what he's doing exactly, it adds a lot to the video!
Lol yes, like "fire makes it go away"
Made me smile =)
Can somebody tell me how to turn on captions on mobile app? I can't enable captions in the videos?
Nevermind i just found out how to haha
My 4 yo daughter said we should thank you for the entertainment. We are huge fans and love to watch together the videos of the "man of the forest", as she says. Thank you!
Jonathan Araujo it must be really heartwarming knowing you have fans like this
Other RUclips channels may have more subs and views but can they get an entire family to watch their videos? Kudos to y'all :D
Cool. "Die meneer in het bos" is what we call him here. It means pretty much the same.
Jonathan Araujo I like that Im going to think him as the man in the forest too, tell your daughter someone said GREAT nic-name!
wowt thats german right? Sorry for asking but im learning and is sure looks like that
Close. It's Dutch.
I notice someone commented that you still haven't said a word. Don't change that. Your videos are perfect just the way they are. Silence is golden!

”Fire makes it go away.”
Suddenly a life lesson.
Might be a problem if roots get set on fire; here in Canada sometimes roots burn slowly towards their tree, might spark another fire. Then again, this is a tropical rainforest, so its probably different.

And to be honest, if I was stuck on an island alone...I wouldn’t give a fuck 😂 fuck the trees, im keeping me alive

@kjca why... you teenage brained 9 year old.
@@Kjca_1998 you have to be careful, it could cause a forest fire burning down everything around it.
God, you're such a legend, man. I've learned so much from watching your videos and observing your methods. I went on a camping trip with some friends and ended up putting a lot of your techniques to use, it made the entire trip far more enjoyable than if we were to use the tools we brought with us, and the whole thing was intensely rewarding. It was the most fun I've ever had camping. Thank you so much.
Ha ha ha what a story Mark!
Nah for real this is amazing to read :)
GhettoBagel - I agree! There is something very satisfactory about being one with nature. When I was growing up we were poor and had very few luxuries when we went camping. Oftentimes we went long distances on horseback and we only took what we could carry (which wasn't much). We were at the mercy of what mother nature could provide. Those are some of my best childhood memories!
No music, no talking, no bullshit, just nature and the calmness, every video that you upload, is made my day and inspired me. Keep going mate.
Well said .

You watch this while eating grass?
That Axe holder was a nice touch.
idk bro seemed kind of sketchy to me, ye i get it i want it close to grab incase of emergancy but..
i dont want it falling on my head
He is obviously smart enough to build a hook on the wall, maybe he just didn't..
i thought it was nice too, but then he started building his bed directly under it. hope those pegs he's hanging that axe on are secure!
i really love having the cc on and just "turtle" showing up on screen. its the best
"fire makes it go away" Is just such a wonderful phrase, too.

I found your channel from my recommendations a year or two ago and I have to say, This is honestly the best/most interesting channel on RUclips. 100% serious
*It's always such a defining moment when Primitive Technology uploads his magic...*
always make my day when i see that upload notification
God, your editing has so much character to it. You don't even need to speak to convey such a funny undertone lmao
The Ax Rack made me officially fall in love with this channel.
You mean to tell me you don't have an Ax Rack in your village hut?
Forest has great acoustics.
Yes, it makes his voice even more pleasant to listen to
You should've been in RUclips Rewind.

So... You are in the Australian wilderness walking around barefoot... That takes nerves of steel my guy
My oldest kids used to run and play on bindi-i’s and when we moved up here, sensitive weed
No, he's Australia. From North Queensland I believe.
Xalxitz *balls
he crafted himself some sandals in the past. but they're gone now... i dont know why.
fhfffhfhffffhfhfourt He answered a comment about that a while back. I think it was because he preferred going barefoot but still uses them on occasion
These primitive builds really make me appreciate my electric tools, even my axe, saw and planes.
if this guy upload a 30 minutes video like this, i'll still watch it without skipping any seconds.
at this point you must've built a whole village of huts
yea....just kinda sad they arent next to one another
When not maintained they fall apart quite easily. This is what happened to the original wattle and daub hut.
he's the only and true jungle boi that I'd love to have in my team

PSA: Those who are new to this channel, please turn on caption.
Bestevariell Sandah omg I've seen almost all his videos and never knew there were subs.thx!
Hahaha! It feels like as if you were blind and you can see again! Rewatch the whole thing with captions!
fuck now i have to watch it again
Thanks mate
That’s cool although I feel I prefer it with no captions
I dont understand how actively quick people dislike these videos, they are teaching us valuable survival techniques. What is there to dislike about that?
James Norel vegans because they think that to survive you need to kill animals
James Norel right??
Because this knowledge is useless in a zombie apocalypse
People are stupid just fyi, it's gotten so bad now that people are actively convinced into doing things that are not only extremely dangerous but also self harming because they believe nonsense.

This shit is so entertaining jeez
it's like meditating, super relaxing
this guy is awesome, he does his stuff and gives no fuck, no speech just what we want to see in the smallest detail, no clickbait, no shittery in the comments, all my respect for you man i don't know the name of ! all youtubers should be like you (no fake shits, just the real deal) Im with you since last summer and i can't wait a new episode after i finish last you uploaded
Daniel Neacsu I don't know about you, but his "click bait" is whatever is in the thumbnail in each video. No word text or meme images, just a solid picture of what he's going to make. I can't not click on the video if I see a house like this!!
the thing is clickbait is making a bait for people to kill , either the title which refers to 5 seconds out of 15 mins video or the photo.. :P its basically some sort of lie that makes you click the video, this guy doesn't do that , don't get mad at me lol
I love how he considers this to be just a "hobby"
Cambren Sievert *builds an entire town*
Nah that's just a hobby
He has much, much cooler hobbies than I do.
Outperforming 50,000 years of African evolution as a "hobby"
Some aliens have hobbys... building planets... and some of them watch the other aliens on youtube when they could just build an earth for themselves but lazy AF
I mean it's not really that hard or anything. It's different from anything else, sure, but all it really takes is a lot of patience (like gathering leaves for the roof of the hut) and some crafty hands with lots of practice. The hard part is finding a suitable place with enough materials. I would love to do something like this but don't really have time and it would be a bit too extreme in -20 celsius knees deep in snow.
His house even has a place to hang his stone hatchet!
مرحبا
Right over his bed too
The one thing in this video I can confidently make by hand lol
I loved that part. 😅

That house is nicer than mine
Im scared of plants

How the HELL are you scared of FUCKING PLANTS?
TresOk men eating plants!
Adam C really?
Honestly, I wouldn't mind ditching technology and living like this. Build small huts here, beds and so on. It would be time-consuming but really relaxing and peaceful.
You make such amazing content. Simple, clean, and beautiful. Thank you for your hard work!
(also, a part of me thinks you will be getting even more views than normal in the coming months as people freak out about the threat of nuclear war, and prepare mentally to go back to the stone age)
I think they all ready are. 2 million views in a few hours. We can thank our dodgy politicians for our primitive curiosity now!
I would love to see a timer just to see how much time it takes for you to do these things
yeah, when he starts the hut the palm leaves are green, he finishes when its dry already
Really Now yes this is just for fun
He always does these over the course of several weeks. It's a hobby for him and he can't dedicate his full time to it.
almost started studying, but you saved me
ちょっと何気なく見にきたら日本語字幕が付いててとても見やすかったし、いい動画でした!
Rumour has it, his ancester invented the wheel.

When you were smashing the rocks together at the beginning I swear I heard Darude - Sandstorm.
I was thinking the exact same thing!!!! I️ went into the comments to see if anyone else thought so.
Robbie King i rewatched it an laughed ou loud. What a legend
One of my favorite parts is that he does all this with very little unnecessary waste.
Doesn't utter a word, has a sense of humor better than modern day comedians.
JoshL117 ifkr most of the comedian these days are just racist and offensive yeah it was fun and all in 2012 but not anymore
I like this shelter, looks much roomier, and good for the long haul.
Next upload title: Jungle Mansion
Cambren Sievert no it will be: Primitive Technology: jungle mansion
the internet will break if this guy talks
he rarely grunting on his videos.
"more work" "off I go then"
Blew my mind when someone pointed out he explains his steps in the control captioning!
This account has been shut down AHAHAHA AAAAAJAHAHAHA1!!!!1!1!!
Aha
I have seen lots of survival n bushcraft videos bt I would say this guy is the real wild survivor.his skills are ozam.
One of these days I am going to get the confidence to go out into nature unprepared with nothing but my 2 bare hands, proudly attempt all this, and die
Squid SQuiddly Naked & Afraid😉
Squid SQuiddly You'll succeed.
that is the reason i watch his videos , so i don't die if i ever decide to go into the wild. Some are basics and known by a child from a small village like me , but other things like making charcoal are new to me. i live in a very different country, with very different climate , but those videos might get handy someday :-) I really like those different views you get on everyday things like pots or something like that , while watching his videos. And his videos are by far my all time favorites. Some other youtubers out there are making some very nice stuff for primitive lifestyle too , but in my opinion his are the best , bc they are really ... well ... primitive but with a very rare quality.
Well there's your problem. You forgot to take the huge pair of shorts.
Can I come with?
It should be mandatory to watch these videos with subtitles, I've been watching them without and I've missed so much information.
RUclips won’t send him a diamond play button, his gonna make one.

I hope you can get the diamond play button.this has inspired me to act more primitive like
archaeologists in the future are going to hate him
Holy shit you right!!!
Like...
If in the past, the mans who cunstructed all this materials are just people making things from the further past
They're not going to find anything same as how we barely find anything from the caveman period because as you see it's all made of wood, plants, and dirt. It all degrades back into the soil.
Kandi Klover and the axe? Its made of stone
Julen Muru rocks erode back into the soil too.
Don't worry they will just make up a false narrative on when it was built and by whom.
5:38
"tree stump"
"fire makes it go away"
l000l true caveman logic
Byas that sentence was way more enjoyable than it is/should be and I love it
Chuckled really hard when i read it for the first time
When I saw the turtle and him picking up the rock, I expected him to beat the shit out of the turtle.
But no, he just picked up more rocks.
Same here.
Cause we have watched too much bear Grylls
What would be wrong with that
I kinda missed it. Wheres turtle everyone talking about? Ne too lazy
Disappointing

bruh trees don't have feelings they were made for that
RUclips is getting stricter, coming in from LTT's wan show
enshrowd sir u are misinformed
Trees are not made for cutting down and making houses 🏡, trees 🌳 live on this earth 🌏 to help us survive by providing oxygen. Without trees we would not be breathing and without us trees would not be breathing #biology
Don’t you ever think about if a tree has family and what if that tree is trying to pay for his daughters college education working three jobs don’t u ever wonder if a tree has feelings don’t u ever wonder if a tree.....
Cries 😢
What if a tree cries
What becomes of it after it dies
Do trees believe in jesus
Do trees even have eyes to see us

You are a bit delusional, but I appreciate the effort.
We humans take what we need, and cutting down a few trees for a few humans to live in seems fair.
If you want to complain, complain to companies that own factories that emits greenhouse gas, pollutants, and many more.

You are so inspiring, I have no words. You are also the first person to build a roof the way I do. Why rip palm leaves to pieces and stich them back together, if nature has made them perfectly good for use already. Only I have not left the knife yet. Your stone tools are my next big challenge. I an just not shure I have the physical strength, surely needed when using stone tools. 🤣 I am 60 years old. But I will try!

that's why as the sun starts to set we always see a smoking firepit in his videos, it's to keep insects away

Can you make a brick aqueduct system to transport water?
Brick would be ultra intensive since he'd have to make every brick. He might be able to make a simple wooden aqueduct though. Depends on if hes down hill from his water source.

He'd probably be better off making clay tubes for that.

Yea ! Make the whole aqueduct from one turtle.
