- BUILDING A HOBBIT HOUSE BUSHCRAFT AND SURVIVAL SHELTER WITH NO TOOLS
I built a hobbit house stealth bushcraft & survival shelter in the woods with no tools. By gathering twigs, sticks, and dead trees I was able to put together an A-Frame shelter and then cover it with more woodland debris including a thick layer of moss. The moss was gathered from the openings amongst the woodland trees which seemed to be the best place for it to grow. The thick layers of moss were a great and readily available option for insulating the shelter. DON’T MISS MY NEXT VIDEO (now’s your chance to hit that subscribe button)as I’ll be spending 4 days and three nights in the hobbit house in temperatures below zero, practicing my bushcraft skills, foraging, cooking, tracking, identifying useful resources, and exploring the area.

Can't decide what's more valuable--the shelter, or the dog that vigilantly guarded you while you built it. Love them both.
definitely the boots and gloves, which count as tools..............
"In a hole in the ground there lived a Dustin. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a Dustin-hole, and that means comfort..."
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Good food, also means good food.
Ooh yay I replied fast!
But I have nothing to say so......
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
What beautiful thick mats of moss. A beautiful hand built (without tools) shelter. A 3 day campout with the woodstove would be wonderful. ❤
There's a shoutout in my next vid! ;-)
@@BUSHCRAFTTOOLS ❤ wow! Thankyou Dustin❤ LEGEND
The most important step was to bring doggo for moral support.
I always bring my doggie out when I make forts
IDEA: I take it ou have a GoPro? For some amusing scenes to go in your wonderful episodes, could you attach a GoPro to Amber's collar, as a "neck cam", and see what she gets upto on some of her missions around the forests, with and without Jacks? I think it could be quite fun! Keep the brilliant stuff coming, I've taken a lot of tips and inspiration from you and your compadre (Mike)...
A tarp then maybe moss on top you did good
Great channel, love your precious pup. She is so sweet. In the other episode she picked up a stick for your to toss for her up you didn't see her. Please toss a twig for her to fetch she also dug up a root like you did. What a smart dog she is💞
I guess it takes much longer when you have to walk to a location near a tree branch, set up the camera, then walk away, then walk back to pick up the branch while on camera, then walk away with the branch, then walk back to pick up the camera to put it in a new location.
... Edit.. And it's amazing you did it all in 17 minutes.
Looked a great location and by using the natural dip you also gain from natural protection from the wind and elements. Enjoyed the sounds of nature in the woods to. Looks like a cosy place to spend a night or two as you say and liked the teaser at the end.
Enjoy your overnighter with Amber and the wilderness. Cheers Dustin.
Cheers Dave, look out for a 'shoutout' in my next video ;-)
LIKE the plan for next time. This shelter should hold up for some time if the moss was added to and renewed as needed. A few years ago, Carlisle 195 and his RAF buddy, Andy, built a similar frame, tarped it over to deal with rain and snow and then mossed it for insulation. They got a good bit of use out of it until it was burned down. Thanks for demonstrating how to make a LOT OF SHELTER with just some exceptionally fine local resources and ones hands.
Perfect lockdown getaway, Samwise Gamgee! ✌️🙂
Same premise, love the shelter, how to make that a perminant water proofed shelter
Going to have to try that. I've been camping since the age of 10 this spring i might be homeless.. hello from Arkansas..
Been following you for sometime, and you've really stepped up your videos over the last several months - very noticeable. Using that natural depression was a brilliant idea. Thanks for sharing great content and Amber is sweet dog. Happy New Year mate!
Thanks for watching bro. I appreciate you sticking around 👊
Wonderful to watch this build and looking forward to seeing more camps out in this hobbit house. A huge thankyou also for dropping by my livestream today, it's much appreciated. ❤
Gets an A+ for labor intensive, but if you have nothing but your hands, it works!!
Well done Dustin! So bake a bread next time. 👍😁
ginger is a purty girl. your constant companion and guard.
hello there sir, I really Love the real nice job that you did on you're shelter in the woods and I thank you for giving me a great idea to try myself ok. 👍💯💖
There's that Good Girl ! It's always a treat to see Amber making her entrance and checkin' on things. Good shelter there Dustin, so many ways to head with this one, an internal ridge line and a survival tarp strung/staked inside, the small fire near the entrance (or wood stove), and you're warm/dry and smoothin' it. Not to mention any one of those great meals you whip up over an open flame. Mike'll be showing up with a hungry look on his mug.
Haha so true 👍
That was great Dustin 👍
I wonder if the moss will grow together and become a natural sod type roof? Impressive that you pulled that off in a day.
if left no doubt
Wow, what an awesome endeavor! You guys never cease to amaze me. The opening reminds me of Dave Canterbury's spider shelter. If you maybe seal off the top half of the opening with a light lattice, with the slope of that ridgepole I bet you could build a Dakota firepit right inside the entrance while trapping most of the heat inside. But the slope of that floor means that you'll have to sleep with your head pointing towards the back, which would make it really inconvenient to feed the fire. Tell me something though, what else can you do to make that shelter really waterproof? More moss, or maybe a foot or so of pine needles? It seems a shame to have such a well built shelter and not be able to use it in rainy weather
Hello. You seem to love your work very much. I'm happy to see your latest build. greetings from Vietnam
I need to visit Vietnam one day....can you recommend anywhere special to visit?
@@BUSHCRAFTTOOLS Hello. If you come to Vietnam, you can visit Ha Long Bay, SaPa tourist area, Hue ancient capital ... each tourist spot will have its own cultural features of the ethnic groups. nice when you come to Vietnam
Nothing more in the world I would like to do right now than building some structures like this in the woods and just sit at night with a fire and a few drinks and just be....I grew up in the woods pretty much well alot off time real camping no caravans so its home to me...hope I get back one day cheers for vid
Mate that looks epic! Can’t wait to see the camp out!
Stay safe buddy
Ash 🏕
Incredible build as always my friend - I expect nothing less ha! Thanks for sharing, the inspiration, and for all you do. Cheers!
Thanks for watching mate
Happy New Year, Dustin Baggins :D
Nice build!
Awesome to see you coming closer to 50k subs having been around since your first build with Mike and less then 5k subs :)
Thanks for sticking around Eddie
And I really like the videos you make with Mike!!!
Thanks Joe
You’ve never highlighted any of your hunting in video. How about showing how you’d create a simple tree stand or hunting blind? Do you do any trapping? We love your content so keep it up! Thanks
I too would be interested in seeing you build a blind of some sort - though I'm not much of a hunter. I just like being up in the trees.
@@cleoharper1842 agreed! I love the wilderness.
Very well done shelter. Imagine what yuh ou could have done with tool and a couple of sacrifice traps. I very liked the video.
Andy's watched you forever lol often your found on our kitchen wall tv.. working away while we have coffee. was nice also to see your name come up at our friend Arielle-Viking Venturer N Victuals channel in her shout out. cheers.. we are subscribed from before but enjoying your channel and wanted to say hi
Lovely! Thanks for sharing, Dustin! Can't wait for you and Emma to return! I love your videos!
When you build a camp do you leave it in position when you leave? I appreciate the ‘leave no trace’ but as long as no rubbish is left it could be utilised by others
Grate watching mate nice shelter 👍
Hello! I met you in Arielle's livestream tonight...WOW you are so incredibly talented my Friend!! I can't wait to catch up on all your other videos...Just amazing!! New Friend here. Have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks Karen.
The amount of moss growing on these logs 😯
What a massive job of collecting materials! Must have take some time. A hole in the ground thou, specially on a slop will collect water. Wouldn't it be better between two trees?
Luv It! I'm an Oregonian moss lover!!
Some snow would seal it up nice.
TIPI SHELTERS ARE HANDS DOWN THE BEST FOR LONG-TERM COLD-WEATHER LIVING.
Awesome...can't wait for the campout...
i enjoy your camping trips i am old and can't do it now but it sure looks fun i like your cooking also you do a great job thanks
I really like the shelter you made! I have seen Alot of these type shelters but I really like the size and shape of yours. You could throw
A tarp or 2 over it for when it rains!
Brilliant site selection, design, and cordage free construction.
Nice job! Just goes to show that even a fairly simple temporary shelter is a lot of work. Looking forward to your next video.
Big thumbs up
thanks for the video..
That’s a prodigious effort....well done Sir 🍻
Dustin, good morning from America!
Gooooooood mooorrnniinnngg
Happy New Year from Dublin, Dustin. Can’t wait to see what gems you have in store for us all in 2021! Looking forward to your next upload on the Hobbit House!
Happy new year to you too
cool.
... greetings from Delaware county Pennsylvania USA, Happy New year's Dustin and of course Amber.... Was very excited to hear that notification bell ring and see that it was a bushcraft tools video.... Awesome job on the shelter sharing the little tidbits of knowledge and information this has been an awesome way to get through all of the lockdowns and a nice escape from the turmoil that is plaguing so many of our countries... I recently saw one of Mike's from TA outdoors videos and asked him if you and he were getting ready to collaborate on anything and he said you were hoping to get together and maybe do an overnighter and post the video.... I enjoy watching Mike's videos and enjoy watching your videos but I really enjoy watching you and Mike together in a video especially your first video where Amber was absolutely torturing Mike hahaha, I really got to kick out of that.... As I expressed to Mike I really enjoyed watching the Viking and roundhouse and Saxon House build you guys did and was wondering if you had any big plans similar to that for this new year 2021.... Please keep them coming.... And I agree with the comment about your videos they really have come a long way since you first started and you are doing a terrific job.... And whether you want to think it or not you really are making a difference in and touching other people's lives..... Keep it up my friend.... And if it were possible to come to the UK I so would just to hang out with you and Mike for a few nights... Be well Dustin can't wait to see the next videos
Fun as always. Hope the overnight is fun.
It was epic....4 days in total! Check out the next video
Perfect lovely shelter I love it 👍👍🌲🎄🌲
I don't live where you do and greatly admire that beautiful sheet moss, what do you recommend as a substitute?
It looks so easy in the vid and I try it and I’m struggling any tips🤔🤔😂😂😂
Oops meant your talent shows no bounds. Brilliant once again.
Tactical gloves those dead tree limbs are so dangous lmao
I almost died!
Great video. Amber looked like she really wanted to help.
You're so good at stuff, Dustin.
Thanks for watching. Check out the epic episode this Friday.
Awesome!
I thought the structure would be a major non-stealth but wow it really does blend in with all that moss. Great job, sir!
Very nice build Dustin 👍 And quite Hobbity indeed. If you closed half of the entrance, you would retain even more heat in there , but miss some of the outlook of course. Cheers 🍻
Hello Dustin!
I was watching. Your show all day!👍 like it very much !😘
Great video Dustin, useful viewing as always. Keep up the good work 👌
Thanks mate
Wonderful!!!
Nice to watch and recap really enjoying watching
This is brilliant 👍 Also a bit of temporary tarp could help during any downpours, I know that's not the point of this video but thinking for camping. Adorable dog by the way & had to subscribe.
Super!!!!!
YOUR DOG IS SO CUTE
Hello and happy new year, love this idea of the shelter being low profile as its in a natural ditch/hole. My only question is, is there any worry of water collecting where the shelters been built or is the forest floor absorbing the rain fall? Either way sweet build
The pine woodland creates a woodland floor that is super absorbent so there's no worries about it getting flooded in there
Great video for making a simple shelter. Can't wait to see what you cook up on your stay 😊
I have built a few of them and know how long it takes to gather all the materials, great video looking forward to the next one.
Awesome video my friend... I'm a Outdoor RUclipsr from the Pacific Northwest... Washington State. Cool that you covered your shelter in moss! Makes for a great insulator. Awesome vid! Keep grinding on that outdoor adventure life!
Thanks mate....I'll check your channel out
Dustin, would like to see you drinking a nice single malt in the shelter near by the fire!! Greetings from saxony, Jens
nice content👍
Awesome build
Wow,love it!
Love it Dustin ❤️ thank you and Happy New Year 🍻 doesn't matter what you choose to do on your next video to me really, I know it's going to be top notch. You and your beautiful little girl there have a great day, she's always so patient and sweet, love that you include her in your videos, take it easy and God Bless ❤️
Thanks Dorothy
крутая природа, классная съемка)
Excellent"
looks rad! I like it a lot
Happy New Year Dustin road to 50K subs
50k.... Let's goooooo!
Is this really in Somerset? I didn't realise you had such thick woods there!
Yep...it's good old Somerset
Great video Dustin , A lot of effort went into that shelter 👍 what's the make of that smock your wearing 👌
Awesome you got awesome skills.. Just the moss must of taken you ages bro...
Best The Video ♥️♥️👍🇵🇰🇵🇰 Village Mountains
Thanks for the great video mate enjoyed it !!!
Great build Dustin. Did it take long. Love the help Amber gave at start.
if you added more small sticks and leaves ,then the moss on top would that make it more water proof ?
and also give the moss a base to live off ?
cool video, nice hobbit hole.
Amazing
superb
Great build 👍
Does anyone wish this guy would narrate audio books?
🤣
Brother, I hope it snows! What a great shelter that would be for snow. Any potential for a fireplace?
As soon as it snows I'm gonna head back there for a few days. As for a fireplace.....check out the next HOBBIT HOUSE video
Nice job
Hi mate, that was a great job really! Could you post a video about how you film all the things you do for the building process and stuff?
Add captions that explain what you're doing
I have two question:
1) I always avoided camping i locations like this one, because i feared that in heavy rain water would come in.
2) I never used moss on such large scale, because i thought it just dry out and die. Will it?
Ppl always underestimate how much work you have to put into this type of a shelter, so GG :) Thanks
Great shelter build mate 👍👍 looking forward to seeing your next video in it atvb Jimmy 😎😎
Thanks mate
