His modern stone age mad science would probably be a lot further along if he just curbed his autism a little bit and got some better iron ore than goop he finds in a creek
yeah it was fun the first time but I stopped watching him because its all the same shit
I expected him to atleast have some iron tools by this point
he has been building furnaces for YEARS now
he actually used an iron tool this time. again, he's stuck in this track since he can't hunt, and needs new tools to do anything else. without leather or bones from hunting his only path is iron.
his new furnace is much much better than the rest he had. Imo he just needs to combine it with taller designs and he can actually make more usable iron
there were some wild chicken in one of his videos assaulting his farm i vaguely remember. I think he wrote that hes allowed to hunt it but didnt? might be wrong
My favorite is when they do a "time lapse" of the half naked indonesians digging a giant hole with sticks and you can see the tread tracks from the back hoe
The people in the comments who say they jumped for joy seeing a new upload from a copycat triggers me hard. Also the ones who circle jerk over how clever/hard working they are. I can't tell if it's all just bots or white guilt.
And they're soulless turd worlders, so you know they won't just take their humble winnings and go. They'd pollute the world with these shitty things if it meant more money.
I keked real hard at one of these once, when they made a water slide out of cement, except there was no water and the indonesian dude slid down on it and you could tell it hurt him going down like sand paper.
red clay in a rain forest? No. Red clay is caused by oxidation in the iron and is surface level. The nutrients in red soil is minimal and little grows in it. Rainforests wash this away. If he's in Australia, he pulled this red clay off site.
where's the video of him getting the red clay then?

this is dumb,
1. the channels that pretend they did this 'all on their own' and crafted their own materials from start to finish are all lying. Even if they DID they would time lapse the process because that would be boring as shit. Most of those channels are just mindless entertainment no different from grabbing some fricking object, filming it and then getting it dirty/rusty and then putting out a 'restoration' video. Yeah, it fools fricking idiots but only idiots want to see that in the first place.
2. This guy tries to demonstrate 'primitive technology' techniques. It was never about do anything 'completely himself' or only using material found on site. The CONTENT of what he shows is what he's talking about, the idea behind it. He's not building pools with a machete.

if he got the clay on site, surely he shows it? Cause the entire surrounding are is NOT oxidized. So how large is this "site" then? Cause he is in the australian rain forest where red clay should not be found, unless he has property in one of the nature reserves, yea, I call bullshit.

He gets his better clay from a pig wallow under a fallen tree root, explained in the brick making video and shown in many others including this one. It's also at best slightly more reddish than his regular tan creek clay, and it's not red brick clay at all, which looks like this, you pseudBlack person

Could have said that earlier, but he says it was carried to the site, so he actually admits it was off site then, which was my point.

thought it might be answered here. The on site rule is a stupid one considering the displacement of australia rainforests in the 1950's-70's and the top soil being recovered in restoration projects. I contend and argue he is likely using clay he should not have easy access to based on where it looks like he is. This video
>He didn't make those
Bro...
shows him using clay that's washed down a stream, which is also suspect, in that other man-made disturbances upstream could be the cause. Is his on site rule going to allow him to use soda bottles and cans? On site is a dumb rule when the the site could be a restoration site that has only been untouched for 30 years. Which I'll admit, seems likely, but then the rule is stupid.
>red clay in a rain forest? No. Red clay is caused by oxidation in the iron and is surface level. The nutrients in red soil is minimal and little grows in it. Rainforests wash this away.
Are you moronic?
1. Rainforest soils are highly oxidised, given the high temperature and rainfall that most, especially Australian rainforests, grow on.
2. Rainforest soil is, quite infamously, nutrient poor.

>because clay is a specific type of soil
it isn't. Clay is one component of all soils
he has made everything except for the camera and black shorts. not sure what food he survives on, he doesn't show that part. point is, he's trying to use only materials in that acre of land. maybe he wants to prove that abos could have advanced had they set their minds to it.
Somehow I knew it'd be My mechanics before even clicking the link. Both channels have comfy, well edited videos with no dialogue and both have tons of cheap imitators.
I feel like he's reached the limits of what's possible for a single individual. He'll probably use the improved furnace to finally craft a decent blade and then commit sudoku on live television.
The furnace videos have been going on for years now, while enjoyable it was always nice in the past to see him working on something new. Using his iron to make a permanent blade would be pretty interesting. Maybe also getting into more chemistry like when he used the snail shells too. His videos are fun though, I think he almost gave up when those indonesian copy channels popped up but then he came back when everyone realised they are all fake and his are real
>I think he almost gave up when those indonesian copy channels popped up but then he came back when everyone realised they are all fake and his are real
there are two factors i think. the first is it's a genuine hobby for him so he doesn't have the compulsion to crank out videos. secondly, i think in that era when he disappeared and all the poo copy cats popped up, he was coincidentally making a tv show (which never aired)
>blade
he cannot make anything substantial like that because he doesnt have the ore, he uses the absolute shittiest source of iron possible and it takes a lot of work to get a few grams
He could make just the very edge of the blade the iron part and fix it to a larger knife shaped material, perhaps. I don't know I barely spend any time outdoors
his goal seems to be some kind of a scientific research of the old methods of building and crafting rather than the tech advancing civ style, he writes books and ive heard historians and paleoanthropologists referring to his "occupation" positively
It's more that he explores what's possible and practical with readily available natural materials that almost never preserve for thousands of years, practical experimentation on this subject is almost never actually done
well thats essentially the same thing, theres this method, i forgot how its called, where you study the past looking at the present, like what bushmen or maasai are doing in their natural environment

it's not really the same thing, he isn't using known methods or building things in any style that's already known, guedelon castle in france is more like that, where they test the known tools and techniques of medieval masons and architects.

It is true, he isn't making any specific technology any specific way, like trying to make a roman iron forge or a japanese smelter or something.
I watch his videos to fall asleep. Either I'm calmly entertained or asleep.
This guys okay too. He builds his shack, no dialogue. Then always cooks a nice fat steak at the end
i wish he would do something new already instead of the 10th way to make a kiln or bricks
his imitators already have self built villages at this point with water wheels and artificial lakes
because a lot of his methods are bronze age. The heat required to manipulate iron is about 1000 degrees more. So, if any aboriginals experimented with iron they likely never got results. These ideas were taught and trial and error is a big part of it. All error means it's never taught. They were limited by their materials. They would never have learned their heat wasn't high enough without something that melts at a cooler temperature.
I was massively overthinking how a one-way blower would work lol. Is this basically the hottest blower you could reasonably make with the tools he has? Making bellows would be possible I suppose but I doubt he's going to hunt some Wallaby's for the channel.
It could probably be made faster by A: mounting the axle more sturdily and adding a flywheel and/or B: mounting it much more sturdily and just using a crank instead of a bow

What does his height have to do with anything? We're not trying to frick him.
This is a very female post.
Yeah, like a real prehistoric man. Even his body commits to the bit.
this bastard cannot make a good videos he try to copy better more professionals no entertainment value.
he's making more money on youtube than you are.
Not an argument. Do you say the same shit when somebody says a movie is garbage? Nobody cares about your channel homosexual.
So making youtube videos is as out of reach to you as making theatrical releases? Got it.
good morning sir
nice bait
BLOODY BASTARD DOG!!!!!
>DUDE what if I made ANOTHER furnace for... get this...
>IRON SLAG
I'm still more impressed with him than the thirdy channels though
His modern stone age mad science would probably be a lot further along if he just curbed his autism a little bit and got some better iron ore than goop he finds in a creek
its from some bacteria and its fricking awesome. you're saying he should obtain iron ore from outside his immediate environment? frick youuuuu
yeah it was fun the first time but I stopped watching him because its all the same shit
I expected him to atleast have some iron tools by this point
he has been building furnaces for YEARS now
He has a shitty iron knife, he uses it in the new video
he actually used an iron tool this time. again, he's stuck in this track since he can't hunt, and needs new tools to do anything else. without leather or bones from hunting his only path is iron.

*shits up the entire genre by indonesians*
The fact that people believe these are real infuritate me.
My favorite is when they do a "time lapse" of the half naked indonesians digging a giant hole with sticks and you can see the tread tracks from the back hoe
i like the bits when they pretend to make cement with water and dirt

Didn't they destroy a nature reserve with these giant holes filled with shit that collapse/decayed in a couple days?
Fricking hate these morons, took a nice concept and raped it with garish taste

I keked real hard at one of these once, when they made a water slide out of cement, except there was no water and the indonesian dude slid down on it and you could tell it hurt him going down like sand paper.
turd worlders can never recreate the hyperborean aryan spirit
>it's another furnace episode
loved this dude's channel but it got old quick
You're supposed to bask in the atmosphere.
At least one person actually replied
I wish he did copper instead of iron. Way easier to smelt and work with and was the first metal we actually started using.
He's too autistic, he'd have to actually find some in the wild. Iron is the only one he can get on his own with the creek sand trick.
thanks to his on-site autism, he'd need to strike some copper ore in order to do that
he uses bricks in this video though. He didn't make those.
>He didn't make those

He doesn't live there, but he has grown yams on the site before, and caught fish and crabs
Different concept, but similar speechless satisfaction.

I think he is using Cement there but calls it Sand. very dishonest filmmaking. Disappointing.
Reminder that he does this in his home backyard. He wont find copper or anything different from the usual stuff hes been doing now.

He's well built, not an athlete but you can tell he's functionally fit. If he cut he'd have some good definition.
