Swedish self-reliance! Excellent and thanks for the video! ...you must also have an all access pass to all the heavy equipment in your town - airport, quarry, supply yard, etc. Cool.

I so desperately want to move to whatever economy this dude is living in, the sense of community displayed in these videos genuinely has me shook. How do you just go to the local giant quarry, grab the keys to the loader and take what you want? Its obviously not *your* operation and you already have a rock crusher on your own but just the fact that you all work together as a community to support eachothers projects is just so... dreamy. Its really frustrating that I cant even imagine what my life would be like with this level of support network. I'm so envious. Your channel is really giving me a mid life crisis over here.

You are an amazing man and I enjoy watching your videos so much that I go back and watch some more than once. I am fascinated by the way you just don't let anything seem to bother you, you find another way to do what your are doing. I can't imagine living so close to the Arctic Circle and surviving but apparently many people do. I live in the south U S and your 50º F is chili here and warm to you. I'm just in awe of all you do. Thank you

I stopped the video at 41:00 and thought you hit that cement so much you were driving to get dynamite! I was laughing out loud. Thanks for buying the drone and all the camera equipment you would not have bought unless you were making these videos for us. I do appreciate it. Thank You Mattias

Thank you for taking us along for the project...handling all the filming adds a lot to the job, and then the editing etc. Thank you.

I absolutely admire your camera work in addition to your equipment knowledge.

The tilt/rotator is such a versatile piece of equipment...👍

Best work and the respect I’ve seen for equipment I’ve ever seen.And I’m 72 years old . Been there and done that

Just wondering why you didn't dig a bit deeper, lay a foot or two of washed stone at the bottom for filteration, then build up with the concrete and surround it with the rock as you are doing??

You certainly know how to make it difficult for yourself. A 6” diamond core bit would have made mincemeat of it ideally drilled from the outside in before lowering the concrete ring into the hole.

nickdrury

Call me a smartass for saying I would have cut the hole before putting the ring down there! Still, you are a one man show of DIY determination!
I Thought it was funny that the poor little car is still under the conveyor! 😁

I think the main reason I like this guy too is he does things that you would never get away with in the states.

Oh wow yall high a high water table there. We lived very close to the Mississippi River. And our wells had to go down 150 feet with a 48 inch pipe. To feed our pivots on the big one that cover all most 700 acers it had to have a 56 inch I believe. Our old house next to farm headquarters our water well for the house was about 20 foot. And had the best water you could get. It was very cool but not to cold to drink and enjoy. Seeing how it was in all most pure sand did a great job as a filter.
