Sythe in the bush

Here's some more pics. Sorry for small image size. Upload is difficult on this connection.


Side of the shed, facing toward the largest mountain on the property:

This is my heat exchanger for the shower. Basically a pot full of water with a copper pipe in it. The pot water's heat capacity helps to even out the transfer of heat to the water running through the copper. Otherwise the shower is too hot then too cold.

Chainsaw work:

More later.

I've thought about doing this, but it would probably be somewhere in North America. Have you started to build a house or are you just living in tents? You should buy a nice house or build one out there and then start your own business from it. I bet it feels good not having to be tied to any contracts or any of that shit. Have you thought about building a Spa? You can dig a hole out and then cement it, and then put medium sized rocks around the top of it or a foot or so away, and fill it up with water and the sun will heat it up. You should get some big ass water tanks too so it will catch the rain whenever it rains (Idk how much it rains in Australia) so you won't have to worry about running out of water. I would invest a crazy amount into a nice house if you're planning to live there your whole life. You should get a bad ass animal too, like a cat that's half Lynx or a wolf dog.

This is similar to what some friends of mine are doing. They own a massive plot of land in Portugal, and have a farm there. They have solar power and are building a crude biomass boiler, and they just have various tents and teepees for living out of. I'm moving out there for a few months next year, interesting to have stumbled onto this thread.

I can see you making that into a really good looking property if you put a lot of work into it. Is that what you plan on doing?

I wish I had the balls to live in the wild like this. I'd probably walk around nude all day long.

I'm sure the bugs would love to feast on your jewels.

Sythe > Bear Grylls

Tell that wilderness who's boss. I assume a lot of planning went into this. You've prepared a shit load of necessities for primitive life in only a few days, like that shower pipe and the lumber mill.

Go on give me your argument here

 

Update if anyone cares: we've evacuated for a few days due to a nearby wild fire.

 

[Feelgewd]

oh damn, how did that happen?

 

oh damn, how did that happen?

Some asshat back-burning without telling anyone and without following the standard procedures.

Hopefully it doesnt reach the property but we decided to play it safe since getting out in a hurry is virtually impossible and our fire break and pumps aren't set up yet.

 

[Alteranz]

Do you plan on starting a family out in the wilderness? At least in the near future?

 

[Feelgewd]

hopefully the fire will be gone asap so we can have some more update on that new lifestyle you been telling us about

no damage caused from the fire?
