Hello Mike! I love your content and watching your videos make my day happier! By the way I got a tip for you when you pierced your shelter with your knife: if you want to avoid that you can fill a little of your ''tent'' with a small ball of grass and tie up that ball with a string, it makes a sort of rond place to attach the ''tent'' to the log! No more holes! Sorry for my disgusting english, I'm trying to learn it as fast as I can but my french high school don't help me at all so thank you for your content which makes me improve!

You need a longer fixed blade knife.
The one you're using in this video it's good for camp cooking but definitely not good for Camp chores.
It's too bad you use synthetic cordage and a tarp to make the shelter, you could have fused tree root or nettle or something similar as a fastener and or pegs. As far as the tarp goes I understand why you use it but you could always make slats shingles or shakes out of split wood.
It reminds me of plastic fruit in a basket.

Some serious hard graft put in in this video Mike, top job mate.
Great idea with what looks to be the porch area at the front and I also liked the strengthening of the roof using the batons on the inside of the shelter. I'll look forward to the second episode mate. Do you think your gonna put a chimney inside? That would be ace if you did. Another top series to keep us entertained on these long winter nights during the week when we can't get out

Thats great. How long do you think the moss will last? it should last a while because the plastic will give it a rain resevoir to feed from. The tarp will last longer when protected from the sun like that.
I don't think you will get much insulation because it is wet and will conduct heat, maybe tack up some space blankets on the underside?

Is there a reason you prefer the size axe you use here? I'd think a boys axe + hatchet would be more comfortable for a lot fo the work you're doing. I guess it really depends on how far you have to go to get to your woodlands on foot.
Love the work you do! Always learning from it!

You said you wanted to get back to the wood working skills of your ancestors so why not try and get some simple tools they would have had and used in those situations

Is that traffic noise in the background. It is almost impossible to find a quiet place without traffic noise in England. This is the future, unfortunately.
