 just we just had a conversation here like three minutes ago and I was like just shana it's like three minutes to go we're gonna hurry up we're gonna be late and she's like I'm always late and like no I can't be late if I say I'm gonna be there I gotta be there anyway we're here now well yeah that's why I don't like to be scheduled because if I'm scheduled if I say I'm gonna be there I am there that's why I'm like don't schedule me to land something unless you know I really need to be scheduled for it oh did you're making this short trying to show my pecs what's going on all right all right so someone said something about when I'm making faces apparently anyone who makes sleep faces is autistic you can see myself on the screen I want to make faces yeah you can make me out yeah like what am I gonna do here well I'm just being like to sit here like like board like oh no I'm gonna make faces that's that can you guys hear Jamie make faces I'm gonna make some faces hey guys I gotta practice my faces I mean how the kids gonna think I'm cool if I can't even make cool faces geez all right you know what the funny thing is no it's like we we met someone recently who saw my videos and she was like and she was and she was saying oh my gosh I was so concerned about meeting you Jamie because I was afraid you were just gonna come in and dominate every conversation and go all the whole time but you were just like chill man and I was like yeah of course I'm chill in real life I'm not like I'm like the camera's on I'm being a presenter I'm trying to like so speaking of presenting can I start our show well I was thinking I'm supposed to start our show well we're disclaimer okay put the disclaimer let's hear hey guys happy Sunday happy Easter so you're like way prettier than me yeah I need I need to get some I need some eyeball stuff yeah you didn't get here in early enough sorry I'm in I'm interrupting you go ahead hello everyone happy Sunday happy Easter hope everybody's having a great day so far just to put in a disclaimer please remember to keep the comments kind and positive and if you wouldn't answer the question yourself then probably don't ask it so without further ado I think it's actually without further ado so I'm just gonna be over here filtering through comments while Jamie answers well I thought you had questions for me so I don't sit here running out of things to say I can't talk for an hour well maybe I can so so recently it has been brought up a couple times on my channel and yours well wait I think I should start every week remember we were saying I should start every maybe not every week or whenever I do this I should start something by saying something about Adventure Builder yeah club stuff so I'm gonna say I'm gonna say like five minutes not even like three minutes on some some aspect of it bent Adventure Builder philosophy that I happen to care about about then we'll get to questions so but wait we have to start with our show don't we have like some kind of show oh is it like what are we calling our show okay that's enough okay anyway so something about Adventure Builder's Club this is my philosophy that I try to live my life by and it kind of keeps me on the right track and I thought I would say something about the name Adventure Builder's Club like why I named it Adventure Builder's Club don't worry this will only take a few minutes so I did choose the words purposely what are you reading anyway okay I'm not gonna read that anyway I chose the I chose the words Adventure Builder's Club with what's there yeah after I put some thought into it no you can put me on the side yeah you're fine so the term adventure is because you know life is an adventure and an adventure is something where you're you're going and doing something there's probably some level of danger and you're you're trying to you know not just sit back and and be a spectator you're you're actively participating and that's and that's a huge part of life so Adventure Builder's actively participate and I should also mention that these days a lot of people seem to think adventuring is like going on a cruise where you sit there and you know swipe or cut a card and drink drinks and look at things places where you could have adventures while you're resting and there's nothing against cruises or anything I'm I think that's probably a great thing to do if you're resting and whether that is a rest that's not an adventure adventure is like getting involved you know taking some risks whatever cuz like being alive is a risk like just the the state of being alive is a precarious position and you can't you can't try to live your life being safe I mean be as safe as you can but you're there's no actual safety all right now builders why the word builders first the S is possessive not plural well it's plural too but it's mostly possessive because the Adventure Builder's Club belongs to the builders there's no there's no supreme commander of the Adventure Builder's Club it's just whoever's whoever's doing the stuff it belongs to them so if you want to be an adventure builder you follow the club but you are also the the leader of the club there is no real leader it's just everyone is in there and now builders it's not like all hail Jamie it's not all hail Jamie there is no boss and there is no there is no higher authority who can come along and do what they do in a lot of religions which just says oh well now you're gonna have to pay us for money and anyway is this a religion yeah it's an ideology you can call it I mean whatever go get your dictionary look up the term religion I don't know maybe anyway it doesn't matter and builders because in any decision you have in life you can be constructive or you can be destructive and if you want to have a good life and a good world around destroy things and it takes so much more work to build things so if you keep building on things you've built in the past you keep making a better and better life and things get better so builders and then the term club I kind of wanted to pick something that that makes me think of like kids like kids clubhouse you know it's like like a kid yeah like don't take it too seriously like I think it's a super important thing this whole philosophy and the virtues and everything which I'll get into some other point but I also think it's important to never take anything too seriously you know we're here for this yeah don't take anything I say seriously no but we're here for this little moment in life and then we're gone like don't don't get too worried about you know one tiny little thing that went wrong just do your best in life and have fun like you're in a club we're in the clubhouse my I kind of think of my house is a clubhouse all right what are your questions okay do you have any questions about that I do have some questions but I'm not sure if they're specifically related to that but I did notice that somebody actually just asked specifically about our livestreams and if when I go back up to that and whatever the question is like we just started doing them I don't even know if I'm doing this every week I know but I'm just saying he thinks that a regular live Q&A's are a great idea and if y'all are interested in boosting you know community engagement and stuff but he's always said patreon subscribers too that wouldn't be the worst thing in the world no but I'm dubious of your long-term tolerance for the live audience format for example like some para social fans who hang on to every little thing and insist on pestering you with feedback in real time which may be frustrating and harder to deal with in a live format I actually find it much easier to deal with in this format because like I can't deal with comments anymore once it got above a certain level of negative comments or like you know criticism because people would say something and then I'd respond to that person and then like three comments later I'd be like oh it's the same thing okay let me respond to that one and then they get the same thing over and over and over and I just be like I can't answer the same question like 150 times but in this someone can ask I mean 450 people can answer the babies asleep yeah they can actually hear you really well oh yeah I'm used to it when my camera my camera is a crappy microphone but I've actually tested this not to cut you off but I'm gonna comment that you're cutting me off but I wanted to say because this is important all right all right is that when I do my book readings every Saturday I always check to make sure that people can hear me and they told me that I could whisper and they can hear me really well so so I could do like that ASMR dude I can't I can't look at the screen and look at my face without making funny faces so anyways so you're saying I know I feel like I need to put up a big mirror in my house so every time I walk by I can be like oh yeah I think that's what it is I don't have any mirrors at my house that's what it is I don't have any mirrors or anything like I don't normally see myself three times a week so like like I think it's hilarious like look what kind of ridiculous my eyes look when I get big I don't know I find it in okay what was I even talking about you threw me off oh yeah and when I find it much easier to deal with with interacting with people on the live because like 450 people can ask the same question and I can just say it once and then they can all get it which is it's I think it just works much better than trying to type out or copy and paste the same answer over and over okay so I agree yeah he likes to make funny faces too yeah funny face I want to say Adventure Builders Guild see if I called it Adventure Builders Guild it might be taken too seriously we appreciate it well we'll see you hopefully next time and you can catch the replay for sure so guys I know a lot of people probably asked a bunch of questions before in the comments but if you could just go ahead and ask them starting now we can go ahead and answer them and then I don't have to scroll back through all of the stuff which I will scroll back through to read them later just right now it'll be easier so I think it would be I think it'd be really cool to make my house like a guild hall at some point if we had like yeah well I mean that our community would have to be pretty developed at that point I wouldn't want just anyone coming into my guild hall but then we could have like you know quests up on the guild hall board you know if someone is like I need some pineapples and they can put up I need some pineapples 10 I'll pay this many dollars and then someone can take the quest and say well I'm growing pineapples and then go get the pineapples he wants to know if we watch Joe Rogan I don't really watch anything however I have caught little snippets of Joe Rogan here and there and I think his show is pretty cool I like that he has a long format where he talks to people and it's not just like you know quick snippets of cat crazy garbage like it's like it has a real conversation with people which I very much appreciate but I I don't really watch anything like that regularly because I'm well I don't have internet at my house anyway but I like to do stuff in real life there is there is solar power at the cathedral I only put one solar panel on the roof so far and it's it's enough to run my computer and make peanut butter once in a while I need to make peanut butter and it hasn't been sunny I just remembered something that I learned from my life last week or Friday or whatever yeah when we're answering questions we should definitely make sure that we answer complete sentences because not everybody is actually able to see the live did I I think I did that well no I yeah sentence someone was saying we should do a podcast like that I know but like just it would be some people want us to do a podcast like me and you it would be kind of more like what's his face what's that funny oh what's a hilarious guy's name that people some people really hate him he has red hair and his wife's name is Nina why do I remember that part I think it's Nina someone's gonna remember somebody well yeah anyway he doesn't have guests on his show it's it's actually just him and sometimes his wife just talking like an hour or I don't know he's hilarious though you do this all the time oh yeah and we and honestly who when I'm talking with you with Bill Burr that's it Bill Burr has that yeah totally yeah like we get along with each other so much better when we're doing something like this like we can't talk to each other like this in real life it's terrible um the greatest game of all time chess yeah so yes Aurora plays chess does Bellatrix do Bellatrix is working on it and as a matter of fact Aurora had a chess tutor for a while he came to visit hi your belly I know what he's talking about I'm trying to finish answering a question good why is it keep disappearing it has a timer and I don't set it it just disappears like when a new person pops something up it comes up and then you read it and then if nobody else responds it disappears so like yes I'm next hedger no I get what you're saying but it would be a nice if the comments just stayed no I don't know how to get it to do all right what were you talking about squirrel yeah yeah yeah we just totally squirrel you totally scrolled me so Aurora does play chess and she purchased has participated in a couple tournaments she's not one them but she's done pretty good she's held her own and she had a chess tutor for a while who actually came to visit us for a few weeks and was math tutoring and chess tutoring with her and it was really fun for both of them I think so he likes go more than chess there was actually a point in time about 25 years ago when I got kind of in into chess because I had a roommate who was like serious chess dude and he had a friend who was like ranked something in the country or something and I was playing them and at that point I could like I could like play and tie that guy I never beat him but I could play and like for some reason I could like just level it out anyway I wanted to say the chess thing is that so when the kids were first learning how to play it they actually then took it a step further and with those mega blocks they made their own type of chess game that was not chess you have the kind of complex rules and it was called like something about yeah what was it called hunting hippo hunting hippo school it was pretty cool they used to play that with car cannon so I just want to say guys that if there's a question we've missed and we haven't answered it and you see us getting to a point where we could answer another question go ahead and repost it like it's fine if you have to ask it a couple I don't want a community on my island this person asked if I if I still want a community on my island so no originally my original idea for living on an island was to get a bunch of friends together buy an island together and then we'd all live on the island together yes well there everyone else kind of just disappeared and I did it by myself much bigger well yeah it would have been a bigger but since we did it by ourselves now you're cutting me off now I know what they're talking about so we so I ended up buying well I bought a few little tiny islands here by myself and now there's a little growing community of people who live on their own land well what's your face lives I don't want to talk about specific people but someone lives on one of my islands and you know there are a few other cool people in the area who who bought their own land so I don't want to have a community on my island because I bought a little tiny island that's just for me well not tiny I mean it's a good size for me like it's big enough for my my cathedral my plants there's a you know a little running track and stuff the kids and I ran around up on the mountain this morning the mountain takes about I don't know I could run up in like five seconds like four good times I do want to know it's more than four times I do want to say that Joe is right he's actually one of the moderators on my channel Joe's right about what full sentence laster I was getting into that is a moderator on one of my channels and he just posted a comment saying that he can answer a lot of the questions and it's true so like if your questions not getting answered a lot of times Joe will pop in and post the answer in the chat if we have missed it so thank you Joe for that because generally speaking he's I would say 99% of the time right with his answers I cut you off more apparently I don't know we might have to keep score I don't keep score so we put a little post a little bloop thing right now I don't care no you funny they could do that and then it just put a little scuba diving well that time I was cutting you off because you said I already knew what you're saying and you were just still saying that they don't know what I'm saying but a little bloop but you're in my mind so you know I love the chainmail yeah I started wearing so like a month ago oh I need some music okay can you email us at the adventure builder movie at gmail.com so we can talk about music developments in the future please well there is one thing I would still want to do with my movie like if I was gonna re-thing it yeah it's to put music in it yeah that's why I think it's basically done but I mean I might throw a couple extra little scenes in but like if I was if I could get music in it yeah I would like redo it and like put it up yeah that's why I thought that guy and I don't think I have music oh my god Jamie did you just say you couldn't do something I'm not saying I couldn't do it it's just the amount of time it would take me to get some good music and I play around with music a little bit it takes me a long time to like get something good because I'm like yeah anyway I mean I think I did I think I did good music on my video game some of it but then some of it is some kind of like I didn't really get that so my my music skills are kind of unreliable I would have to do a lot more to get good I don't have I don't have time to get into that I was gonna say like for me that's the biggest issue is like I love editing my videos and I love to do all the stuff in my videos I just don't time he's asking about yeah I actually really enjoyed editing the movie but I don't have time to do it normally and every video anyway he's asking about scuba diving oh yeah I don't scuba dive but I can hold my breath a long time so I just well I would say that to answer the question about can we do an underwater cam if somebody's willing to send us one no I have one oh I didn't even know that yeah I did some underwater stuff years ago I think it still works I'm pretty sure but you know the problem with anything with a lithium battery in it is like if you yes skin diving if you don't if you don't charge it regularly like basically if you don't if you don't keep taking care of the thing you know the battery just dies and then you you go to turn it on what was that he sent me an email oh good yeah I would love to put music in my movie someone said something okay yeah I don't know if I'd be willing to risk putting my tablet in a baggie and sticking it in the water since it's like the only way what chronic thing that I have somebody just was asked about you know suggesting putting it in a baggie oh that's a good question John when when did the concrete floor get laid in the cathedral and what's the purpose maybe like six months ago now when did I put the floor down about five or six months ago like it was one of the last things I did before I moved in and then what's the purpose of the geodesic dome inside yeah yeah I didn't answer that last week today no because it was like no this is this is an easy thing to answer so in my in my house the cathedral there's a concrete dome it's like kind concrete star recruit doesn't matter and then on the inside of that is a steel pipe frame that is inside there and if I knew I was gonna build the steel pipe frame I would have done that before putting the concrete thing up because it would have made the concrete thing go a lot easier because I could have climbed on it I was just like out there like hanging like on this oh it was precarious no I thought of it I just wasn't sure if I was gonna do it because I was like I don't know how long this is gonna take like I kind of want to do it I don't know I just I just need to keep going with this concrete not lose my momentum so I built it anyway but once the once the roof was up but then I was like I want to hang a rope there's nowhere to hang a rope and then I was like wait what if I need to to get up there or or what if we want to play soccer football on the third floor when I get the third floor in and I don't want the ball smashing against you know the concrete I need somewhere to hang netting or something and I was like oh there's like a thousand reasons to put a steel pipe frame and then as I so I built the steel pipe frame it only took I don't know and I think it was maybe shut up I think it was maybe like a week between like going to get the materials and you know mashing them and cutting them and drilling all the holes and bolting it all together it only took about a week to do can I ask you a question and but then when at once the steel frame was up there I was also thinking well that's nice because now if there's an earthquake or something lands on the house or for some reason that the dome breaks this steel frame will catch it you know from caving in so somebody was there was a terrible thing that happened but somebody was asking are you able to well do you feel like safe attaching things directly to the concrete like in terms of like weight like it holding weight things or like I don't know if I'm asking this correctly I wouldn't want to do that like and having this steel frame allows you to be able to basically circumvent that like not have to worry about where yeah if I if I was going to attach something to the concrete dome I would probably drill a hole through it and then put a big washer on the outside and a rubber thing to try to make sure water doesn't get through it's just you know just asking for trouble so having the steel frame there makes it so I can climb around do monkey bars I can attach whatever I need I could hook up my my movie screen there have swinging ropes and climbing ropes all I'm so excited about the gymnasium that's gonna be so cool can you share any new ABC projects in the pipeline oh man in the pipeline before you start talking about that so you can think about that for a minute I just want to also mention guys if we miss your questions it's not because we're just picking specific people to answer it's because we genuinely may not have seen it please make way stop doing that look because now we can answer them yeah yeah I mean people kind of yeah okay here's a question okay considering the climate Jamie could have built something underground to be cooler my house isn't that hot and the temperature isn't actually that hot here most of the time like in Florida in the summer it's just sweltering hot but we're close enough to the equator that we don't really have a summer and winter so it stays like 80 degrees or 25 degrees depending on your Fahrenheit in Celsius 27 but like it's always comfortable in the shade and then my house is made out of the out of styrocrete and the styrofoam insulates really well so it doesn't get that hot okay so do what what projects do I have in the works we have the kid car there's a lot of little things I mean a kid car I want to build a new boat I want to build a metal boat I know you need at least 18 but like now like all the all the boats I've built so far have been like outside like hiding under some tarps while I'm trying to do stuff now I actually have an inside place big enough to do some stuff oh dude thanks that's super cool thank you so much you ten bucks you just someone just send me ten bucks you know what I could do with ten anyway it is the first one we've got okay so wait okay so we're talking about projects well does the styrocrete shed water no but I that's why I put a like mortar on the outside if the water gets to the styrocrete it goes right through but the outside layer of styro or of mortar you know sheds the water the video the podcast that an enigmatic was talking about was the bill Burr Monday morning podcast apparently the one you're talking about with the single guy yeah yeah bill Burr bill Burr is hilarious he's like he's not what you'd call politically correct or socially appropriate so some people get upset but he's just hilarious anyway so many things it's funny that we're trying to not interrupt each other shut up he liked anyway okay oh yeah project so I love to make penis jokes apparently oh geez did you know that you can't say the word you can't also you're you're talking about being big either you're talking about you know like there's no point in advertising it here no girls watch this all right moving on oh we're gonna so much why you just did that okay anyway I do want to build an aluminum an aluminum aluminium boat yeah bill Burr is actually very socially minded besides being so gruff he understands that you can make jokes about things but that doesn't mean you're a dick and it also doesn't mean that you think that what anything you're saying what's Jamie packing see now great okay so I want to make a I want to make and I want to make an aluminum aluminium metal boat and there's a few reasons one I actually have a place that I can build like a big boat inside in a you know not being and oh like 1% to 3% of girls right watch this okay this one this one remember this one okay but a lot of people have asked if I could make a boat not just with garbage so that people could actually you know kind of have plans and build on themselves so if I were to make a metal boat I would buy you know the sheets that you buy and show how to put it all together and everything like that but yes somebody said hi to you it's Joe do you want to say hi Joe plus I've had all these years of you know building boat experience and testing them and all the stuff and I have a pretty good idea of like a super super good boat my best guy has a squirrel going this okay so it would have to be a gift because he like couldn't be it couldn't be a static I can't remember what it was the meme I wanted to make last week I can't do it loud because the babies but it was like if you miss the question you rewind and go back and look at it yourself or something like that it was way better but anyway did you want to answer the question of the dance off the question about the bandsaw okay so I haven't built question I'm answering the question is am I going to build another bandsaw I'm explaining so I haven't built the second or the third floor in my house yet and I'm gonna build them out of wood and I could don't laugh because I'm gonna start reading this you were laughing no you're interrupting that Jim's equipment said that his wife is also watching Jim's equipment a yeah now we need to know about we don't need to know about his equipment too so I want to build I need to build the second and the third floor of my house and I'm gonna build them out of wood and I could take my chainsaw and just go cut all the wood or I could build a lumber mill which I think I'm gonna do so I'm gonna build a lumber in my house I'm gonna take my chainsaw into the jungle and find the logs and cut them into pieces I can move and drag them out to my island and then I can cut them with a lumber mill using solar power and then I don't need all this gasoline and yeah Steven's the one sitting in my drone cool yeah and I don't want to build a bandsaw mill I want to build a swing mill for anyone who doesn't know what a swing mill is it uses a circular saw blade so you can cut so you can cut your cut like this and then it's a swing mill because you can swing you know you can rotate the thing so you can do horizontal cuts or vertical cuts so you can lay a log down and you don't have to move the log at all you can just like cut like this and then come back cut like that and cut like that and cut like that and cut out boards and because you're using a circular blade not a bandsaw blade you can like your your cuts come out like really even and flat and good I know you can get really good cuts with the bandsaw but they're never going to be as smooth as they are with the circular saw blade and the other thing with the bandsaw is you have to keep sharpening it all the time if it's not sharp enough it's the blade starts wobbling and you sharpen it again more versatility with the swing blade also well the one thing you can't do is you can't cut as wide boards with the the circular saw blade because you can only cut you know I mean half minus the thickness of the thing can we talk about water I'm sorry well there's one more advantage to using the circular saw blades which is that they have carbide tips so that you don't have to constantly sharpen it lasts a lot longer than the bandsaw blades which are you know something you can sharpen they're a lot softer swing blade mills are cool Jeff Krupp who wanted to come visit us I think or mentioned it he's trying to get his wife to be on board with that you should come Jeff what's your wife's name I'll tell her she should come okay what was the next question the next question was about waterproofing the roof a bunch of people okay you had an idea last week and did I really get into it okay there's stuff to talk about well actually the idea that I had then looks like it's not gonna go through yeah so again I've got this big concrete dome and with concrete you know it gets little cracks and there's little hairline cracks so there's a few drips in my house which isn't the worst thing in the world but you know I kind of have to pay attention to where I put my computer for example it would be nice to have no drips right so I want it awesome I want a waterproof a big dome big concrete dome and this has been something this something has been on my mind for years so anytime I come across someone who has some expertise and building or concrete or anything I always kind of throw the question at them like how would you waterproof a concrete dome and the best answer I've got so far is like paint something on yeah and reapply every X number of years whatever it is every year every five years every ten years but it's like I keep reapplying thing right and I'm trying to do everything long term like I'm trying to build things once and make it so it lasts a really long time really long time even if it takes me like ten times as long to do it the first time you know painting something on is easy and fast but then you have to keep redoing it so the plan I think I'm gonna end up doing is I'm gonna make dragon scales I'm missing so many questions right now let me explain this so I'm gonna drag and scale the roof have I told you this so basically let me see something let's say Ludwig the space dog this is this is the concrete surface I'm gonna smear some mortar on it like this okay let's say this is where I'm gonna build the thing I'm gonna smear concrete mortar on here maybe a meter by a meter now make it at an angle like this you know I point down for water reasons and then I'm gonna take a sheet of plastic and lay it on there and I'm gonna use the plastic with the the string reinforcement so it's a little little rougher and then we're gonna put mortar on top of that too but that layer is also gonna have like fishing net or something like that to you know make that top layer kind of stay together so if it cracks or anything it's not gonna fall apart anyway there and I'm not blocking it so a smear of mortar a sheet of plastic and then some fishing net and then another smear of mortar and the fishing net will overlap the top so it'll actually stick it'll be stuck to the building so even if this even if this concrete tile doesn't stick to the plastic sheet at all it'll be held by that that fishing net or whatever on the top edges and then the next the next shingle on top of that or the next dragon scale will actually hold down the fishing net on the next layer and that way there will be a whole bunch of just I'm calling them drags because the kids are always talking about dragons and that's what I think about and they're gonna look like giant dragon scales all these dragon scales will be there and eat and they'll be able to shift a little bit and move around and I'm exaggerating a lot checking the material that you would be using to make these tiles is concrete yeah just cement and sand so see he says just saying just tar the roof see that a lot of people just said that and why not just tar the roof that this is what I was just talking about like and tar the roof but then I'm gonna have to redo it every you actually said something that was relevant you don't want to lose it use aluminum with cement because the aluminum or aluminum will disintegrate over time as far as I understand I'm gonna live in a dragon egg yes okay so somebody was just recently asking about another person said I could put pond liner over it but again I mean yeah well no the pond liner will degrade in the sun and that's a that's a problem with a lot of this stuff no no no the problem with putting coatings on the on the roof of a dome is it's exposed to the Sun all the time and you know this is what I was saying about reapplying something every five to ten years or whatever she's you don't see her head oh I want my baby she's just ran away with the baby oh she's putting some clothing on the baby yeah gold leafs that'd be beautiful well there here's the thing there are a lot of things that I could put on the roof like copper sheets brass gold or whatever I don't have like a million dollars this this concrete dragons dragon scale thing is not expensive and that the top surface is sand and cement which is fine in the Sun all like all the plastic membrane is protected from the Sun and like sandwich between layers it's it's like I can do this without it costing a ton it'll it'll be a fair amount of work to to build it all yeah chewing gum one mouthful at a time yeah that would take too long okay so can we move on to the mother under coat for cars it's gonna last a certain amount of time and then okay fiber glass the roof that was a positive car can't stop I kind of wanted to fiber glass the roof but you can't use polyester resin with cement because the polyester resin reacts with the cement so you have to use epoxy and I got an estimate for doing the roof which was ten thousand dollars just for the epoxy not for not even counting the fiberglass or anything I don't have ten thousand okay fire clay tiles that's another possibility but how do I attach them to the concrete tiles that I can leave roof over the cement no because the the leaves will disintegrate and I'll have to keep reapplying see I'm trying to do something on the roof that's gonna last like a hundred thousand years like not a hundred thousand but like a hundred or a thousand like I want this thing to last a really long time now when you say when you say things lasting a really long time does that mean like you would never have to maintain it or does that mean like what does it mean I'll never have to maintain just to put a tarp on it see that's useless because it would just disintegrate in less than a year yeah we're getting okay I have a question right here have you considered LAPI top asks have you considered making a water tower as a battery energy and an electric pump yeah actually on our one biggest piece of property there is a there's a stream there and this is something that's not in the near future it's not it's not on my super radar yet but it would be really cool to put a ram pump in that stream have it come up there's a hill there and maybe I can find a spot where there's a big depression or some somehow fill up some big thing and then have you know pipe coming down from that that runs a generator I think that would be super cool but first I need to get plants growing and stuff I mean there's a lot of other things so this question scale me up says I would like to know about your in your interest ideas or plans recycling plastic and making new project utilizing these materials see this is why it's good to have you here I don't want to do these alone because then it's good you can kind of keep track of the things metal dragon scales is the only permanent solution well that's not true anytime you say something is the only thing yeah I think twice about that okay recycling plastic like ups like upcycling stuff you know like what do you what do you do with like your extra plastic and things like that well I would like to know about your interest ideas plans for recycling plastic and making new projects utilizing these materials alright well obviously with Styrofoam I'm making Styrocreate and I can build a lot of other things with that floating docks other domes you know walls of my house stuff like that and then other plastics so here's my garbage situation at my house right now any paper stuff I just used to light fires so that includes stuff like paper packaging cardboard well I shouldn't say I use it all for lighting fires all the the paper bags from like cement bags I take those off and I flatten them out and I use them to draw so I have this big I have this big giant like paper pad that's kind of like ripped but it's rectangular yeah it's like once it's just brown paper bag it's just like heavy-duty brown paper yeah because you know they put the like hundred pound bags of cement in this paper and that's all it's in anyway I use those as paper if there's any boxes I get or anything like that I'll use them to draw on or build stuff for my kids always want to build models or stuff like that anyway any kind of paper stuff is easy to deal with and the last resort you know when I get down to pieces that the kids have already cut off and stuff I use it to just light fires and stuff like that now plastic plastic packaging oh the bane of human existence like we are just filling the world with plastic packaging but so for the I mean I try and I try to limit the amount of plastic packaging like try to pick products based on like if they have packaging or not sometimes yeah and try to buy one big package as opposed to 400 little packages and then we can use the bags or the containers anyway I have a box at my house that is just plastic bags so you know I'm not I'm not inundated with plastic bags yet or anything but I've got this box that's you know at some point gonna be full and I'm gonna be like okay I need to do something with this so I don't know I'm open to ideas of like you know melt them down do something with some of those things you can turn them into like plastic yarn and make things I'll use one but I mean I get them way more than I can use them so far what else you got going on in here but if anyone has any cool ideas of things you can do with like plastic bags and stuff yeah but don't don't send me like 150 links to the first thing that comes up on Google's which is precious plastics that yeah I've seen that I got it so would the roof would your roof hold your way yeah I can walk on the roof have you done it yet I have not just gotten up there and strolled around but like I've pushed on it like you don't know I mean you up to your like to do the plastering part on your that I'm gonna have to figure out okay so I've got this roof and it's I feel like this is just roof day okay okay so I've got this big concrete dome roof it's 40 feet across which is like 13 meters and it's 15 feet tall in the middle however many meters you figure that and I want to put a coating up put dragon scales shingles on this so I'm gonna have to get everywhere on the roof now there is a ledge going around the lip it's like a it's like a gutter it's about that wide what so 15 inches this is terrible okay anyway so it's like it's wide enough to walk on but like you got to pay attention so you don't fall off so I can stand on that ledge and reach up as far as I can reach after that I'm gonna have to have some kind of thing to get on so I can reach higher on the roof and when it gets when the roof gets high enough it'll be you know close enough to horizontal that I can basically just kind of crawl around and you know sit on it and stand on it and do the stuff although I'm still gonna be nervous because I know how thin it is we thought about pedal generators for the boats instead of mechanical drive well I would I want to build a pedal generator just for my house to charge batteries and stuff so when you know there's a cloudy day and it's raining and I've got nothing to do I can just pedal my thing and charge up the batteries a little not that I ever have nothing to do but wait no the question we were just on are you looking at other okay there's a problem with okay the question is have I thought about making a pedal generator to make electricity to to run a boat instead of just doing it direct mechanical drive well every change of energy you lose some so if I'm taking the mechanical energy converting it to electrical energy check the beans I'm gonna lose some of the energy because nothing's 100% efficient and then converting that back to mechanical energy I'm gonna lose some more energy and if I run that through batteries the batteries are gonna you know lose a bit of energy here and there so every time you convert energy from one form to another form you lose a little so the fewer the fewer energy changes you can do the better the more efficient you'll be so that's why like on my boats when I have a pedal drive I've got pedals that turn a propeller or paddle wheel or whatever directly not with anything in between yeah you want to every time you have it every time you convert energy from one form to another you lose some efficiency you lose some of the energy so if you can do I try to do things as directly as possible awesome okay make some funny faces Kelly Rafferty is asked a couple times maybe you can answer this question right here about how would you convert kilowatts I think power to Nancy thinks my concrete dragon skills sound spectacular it was about converting kilowatt power to horsepower how you convert kilowatt power to horsepower like mathematically it like 768 watts is a horsepower cool I think that yeah I mean and a kilowatt is a thousand so a kilowatt would be like 1.3 horsepower or something I just somewhere around there okay there was another question oh wait there was melting plastic to make dragon see and I don't have enough plastic to melt down to make scales for my roof the other problem is plastic degrades in the in the sun this question will I ever get a dog or if we ever get one we don't have a dog I kind of want to get a dog at some point I kind of feel like I need someone else at my house before I get a dog though like someone else permanently there yeah like sometimes it's just me and sometimes I am just busy like I feel like I don't have enough attention for a dog if I had a girlfriend or something she was like hanging out we could both have a dog I think I think you could have a dog here because you already have lots of animals you hang out with the animals all the time and stuff you don't want to go with her okay that's fine wait there is no they're on the on the topic of a dog actually I was gonna say could you go into animals because somebody else wanted to know about that for your island specifically well my island I want to get some animals but first before I get animals I want to get like plants going like a lot of food growing in platform before I worry about animals she's got loads of animals here anyway so I'm gonna worry about that later I want to get plants going but I just made this battery suitcase thing I think I mentioned that in a previous video and I don't know if I gave you that video yet but I made this yeah it's fine so I have this this big lithium battery with a handle and carried around in the suitcase and I was thinking I could put that on a little cart and give it a brain and make it like my little buddy I'm thinking about doing that yeah just like a little robot that strolls around my house because I've got this let me think about it was I was squishing an ant that was like walking across my floor and I was like I could make a little robot that could just wander around and well my first time we could get them but then I was like nah it has wheels it's just gonna run them over if it's just wandering around and then if I made it some kind of easily upgradeable interface where I can program it every now and then you know times when I feel like programming something because like I'll work on my video game every now and then I can have this robot and I can be like hey I'm gonna give him a little more personality give him some more skills and just you know over the years just add things to this robot you know give him a camera give him some some image recognition give him you know every and every time I feel like oh yeah and like he'd have like a screen with boobies on how about hydropower from the tide around your islands tide isn't that it only goes up and down like two feet and I mean you could do something with that if you had a big enough I had actually thought about like you had I feel like we talked about this well like your canal here if we put a dam at the end of your canal and just blocked off any spots where the water can get in and out you could run a little generator off it but it wouldn't be that much I don't think it's that much power growing on it well that's the thing is I don't it's not really worth the amount of power you get like like better than a height like it would be a lot easier to build a big windmill and you know there's pretty reliable wind right so yeah before I was doing something with time now if we were on the Pacific side the tides are like two stories I mean that's that's a totally different thing it's like you wake up one morning and your dock is like a mile away from your house so okay some somebody wants to know if you've ever read Project Hail Mary no but that sounds like half of my life have you been to Burning Man no I've never been to Burning Man I almost went one year they offered me a free ticket if I'd bring a robot and I was just like it's gonna take so much effort like I'm gonna have to rent a truck and just wasn't worth it and I had something else to do but I also had a good friend who went to Burning Man every year he was like you gotta come you gotta come but I don't know I'm just looking for questions right now so you keep talking I guess hydrofoil boat someone's asking about hydrofoil boat so that is that is something that keeps coming up in my brain the problem with a hydrofoil boat is it's great when it's working but like if I put a bunch of cargo in the boat then it's just becomes something that's in the way and I have to have them retractable and then you also have to make sure they're like perfectly clean maybe at some point when I'm when I kind of get all the utilitarian stuff done I might play around with like just a little personal speeder hydrofoil boat thing but at that point I might want to build an airplane yeah I have a lot of I have a lot of things I need to do before I get in a stuff like that before I do any of that I probably I'll probably build like a second giant robot that's something I really want to do because you know my first giant robot there was there was a lot left on the table I feel like because I gained so many skills in doing that by the time it was done I was like oh my gosh I could build something like 20 times better if I start again kite boat I don't know I don't know yeah I mean you can have a kite pull you around it's just it's just when you get into complicated things like that like it's hard to deal with if you're doing anything else like if you I don't know hold on can I just say hi to my friend too finicky too complicated Dave doing here well Daniel was at my live on Friday so this is pretty funny Dave I heard your channel is doing really well dude that's awesome at least I think Daniel was talking about your channel so Dave wagon hi those ropes straps structural what ropes straps I'm not sure rope straps what ropes straps are they talking about the ones that stick out from the pillars maybe well all the all the ropes in the concrete of my building are structural so any you're gonna have to expand on your question a bit more because we're not sure what the ropes straps you're leaning laminate plastic bags the roof of the again okay so people keep coming up with ideas to plasticize the roof and someone else mentioned here plastic degrades in sunlight it is not gonna last also you were saying something about you didn't want to put anything on it that you couldn't also put concrete on when I when I do this dragon scale idea for anyone who missed it I want to I want to do this thing where I'll smear a thing of mortar then put a sheet of plastic and then put like fishing net and another smear of mortar on top of that and the fishing net will be like tied in like stuck to the building and then the plastic sheet will be under a layer of concrete and the concrete on the on the surface will mostly just to be to protect the plastic under it it'll protect it from you know mostly the Sun really yeah I mean any yeah it's basically the Sun yeah the occasional branch or whatever mango that falls in my house isn't a big deal it's just the Sun degrades plastics you know including paint tar anything like that is just gonna be degraded by the Sun I agree and eventually it's just gonna crack so I want the top surface to be something either metal or masonry so I'm doing concrete because I don't have a million dollars to buy a whole bunch of sheets of stainless steel would probably be the cheapest aluminum aluminum so speaking of a million dollars if somebody gave you like $500,000 or something like would you do anything different than you're doing now oh the projects would just be like way crazier yeah yeah like what's like the craziest project would do with like $500,000 or why $500,000 is there something I need to know I would build like a giant giant robot yeah like a giant robot how giant and that would be my house like I would build like an adventure builder cathedral like giant how giant are we talking like how's moving cast like yeah like how's yeah basically I would build howl's moving castle for anyone who doesn't know there's a movie called howl's moving castle it's also a book but Studio Ghibli did a movie of it and it wouldn't look like that but that's the basic idea build a giant giant robot that's the first thing that comes to mind anyway because that would be super cool car tires as roof tiles is how do I well no a lot of the problem with okay okay car tires clay tiles anything like that how do you attach them to a concrete roof yeah like I can attach mortar to the roof so yeah yeah if you're gonna throw a suggestion it's got to be better than what I already said so I'm just gonna say that so with something that doesn't work as as well as the dragon scales idea I said then it's not actually I mean I don't know what to say then do I have fire ants no not personally no no well Ken always likes to know about the plants and the animals in the area so are there no not here and not on our islands yeah I've never seen any they're probably somewhere around acrobat ants the ones that like stick to each other make a big chain no but they answer on my island or specifically called acrobat okay what do they do that's acrobatic they sit up no other ant apparently does that but they like pull their their abdomen up when they're like being threatened like stand on two legs yeah I think it's their butt that they actually put up because they're gonna sting you but yeah and they're called acrobat ants in there yeah fun so yeah what do you want to talk about can you distill the plastic back in the gas I don't know this question here do you have all the shop equipment you want if not what are you planning to get okay at my house I'm currently missing two major pieces of equipment that are here which is a lathe and a milling machine I just haven't moved them yet the way he's like five thousand pounds well yeah and I want to make sure I want to I want to have a really good spot to put them first so like right now there's a sand pile in the house that I'm using to mortar the stuff and you know I'm gonna get them over there eventually I'm very excited to get those set up oh other things I'm missing the first thing that comes to mind which I want a lot like it keeps coming up is this thing known as a Beverly sheer well I think Beverly is a company that a brand that makes a really good version of this it's like it's like a like it's like a metal cutting sheer thing with a big handle and you go all right and you can slide your metal and slide your metal so is there like a giant pair of scissors it's like a giant pair of scissors for metal except it cuts toward you but yeah basically it's just like a big metal sheer if you really tried hard like so it's not like something it's like a manual thing yeah it's like a thing it's yeah it's like a big scissor thing and you pull a lever down and this thing goes and then you push your metal in a little more and you know you can you can hold your metal with one hand and just hold it and you can make good cuts and they're straight and everything because right now every time I need to cut sheet metal I'm just using these stupid little shears and it's like the cut doesn't come out great and it's a pain in the butt to do or I get an angle grinder out which you know will cut anything but it kind of makes the mess and it's you know what about a parabolic half tube with a tube at the focal line to heat up water okay I don't really need to heat up water because unless you're talking about like producing steam for an engine because you were talking about making energy battery thing yeah and he was going to ask the question about that okay so he's this question is about making a parabolic cylinder with a tube of water and the the parabolic dish heats up the water to boil so you can run a steam engine kind of thing it's uh I mean maybe I'll want to do something with that at some point but it's kind of complicated to make and I I can just stick a solar panel up somewhere and get electricity so easily and they last a long time now if if the the apocalypse comes and you know 50 years from now my solar panels stop working then I'm going to be looking into more like mechanical ways of producing energy that I could do although like I said before probably the first thing I would try is just a big windmill like make you know like the big windmills that they have on pictures of Denmark the Netherlands Holland yeah somewhere they always have pictures of these big windmills like tulips yes the tulips and then a big brick windmill okay so let's see submarine I would love to build a submarine I was yeah I would love to build a submarine but again that's I'd probably build a giant robot before I build a submarine probably and we talked about this once like a few years ago I think when we were talking about hobbit houses and that kind of thing and how we were talking about building an underwater house on the you're talking about putting grass on the house you changed topics you didn't tell me yeah I actually do want to I don't want to do grass on my current roof because there's a gutter there and you know the water coming off the grass is going to have all this dirt going into the gutter it's gonna you know clog it up all the time however I do want to do another building maybe with the foam cement the foam crete and yeah put grass over it is there a way that you could make it so you could use a gutter system with that probably but it's not I don't think it's worth it yeah like I don't there isn't any huge advantage to putting grass on the roof right unless there's like an underground unless I was getting overheated or something right but the the styrofoam insulates the house so it's not a problem but I do want to put but I do want to build another thing yeah the problem is when you start growing stuff on your roof if it has a leak or something oh god then you got to dig out all the dirt out and like do all these repairs so at that point you kind of need like a big rubber membrane over it or something I don't know there's probably some good ways to fix it car tires also leech toxins yeah that is true so I don't want to do too much with car tires what no um okay oh you could make different size roperings to go around the dome so I have four stainless steel cables going around the dome yeah I also have ropes in the concrete but when it was done I wanted to have something just like you were saying just to hold it together really strong because the the concrete is really strong in compression so you can compress it really hard and it'll just hold it together so I've got four stainless steel cables holding it together actually I mean I want to talk about this now because we coming back from something we talked about last week and I was asking you about how you make like tension strength or whatever in the concrete and it brought me up to how do you add like strength like okay so there's tension strength and then there's a different compressive strength so how do you add more compressive strength to like or is that just the concrete shape of it yeah no the concrete has incredibly high compressive strength okay like you can't just take a rock and crush it right right but you can break it because you can pull it apart so so so you you would want to add 10 tensile strength okay not compressive strength so you just that's the only thing you have to worry about like in terms of strength uh yeah as long as as long as you have decent concrete it has really high compressive strength something like thousands of pounds per square inch so every square inch right of concrete can support thousands of pounds right and so on the dome right now the thing that adds tensile strength to it is on what dome on your at my house yeah well it doesn't really need much tensile strength but there is fishing net why okay it doesn't need a lot of tensile strength because the dome well at the bottom it's held in right and the dome is all in compression so it's got weight it's got two steel cables at the bottom okay what is your question no i'm asking you my question you're answering it okay i'm asking for expansion on so i've got it i've got a dome roof on my house we're back to the roof again and i've got two steel stainless steel cables holding that from spreading apart and then the roof on top the weight would push it apart right so it's got the those two cables holding it in but the dome itself it's just in compression like there's nothing pulling it apart right because gravity will push it down and pull it together so like if it sinks into the ground more that just like it kind of is all gonna go at the same time really right not necessarily you're talking about like if one side's like like there's a spot that sinks and then like it cracks open then that sucks yeah because you can't you can't have so much tensile strength in your roof that it's holding up a section of your house right because that's just asking for trouble because if it breaks at some point it's gonna come off or whatever okay yeah i was i didn't really have any agenda with that i was just wondering if you could expand on it a bit more like for clarification yeah but and the thing is like in my in terms of my house what would keep it in the right shape is more the walls than the roof like if the no i don't want to go on some stupid tv show all right so that was asking if i want to go on some tv show and i've just had enough of tv people like we've had two tv crews here and both times it was just yeah irritating and every year i get a bunch of emails from people like tv production people saying we're looking for a host for this show i remember one year like i got like a dozen people asking me if i would host some tv show or come in come to la we'll fly you in and do some pay your housing yeah well we'll pay for you to come and then you know do an audition we're we're making the next what is it the next um the next myth busters no one lady was all about the next myth busters we want you to be the host and you're the next myth busters host and whatever and i was like well i have to live in la well of course this is the place to be and i was like nah i like it here and then that lady this is this was after a whole bunch of similar conversations but this is this was kind of what what just kind of like this straw that broke the camel's back she said to me why would you stay there and just barely scrape out an existence doing nothing and i was like what are you talking about this i love like this is like yeah i was just like you don't get me at all and then so yeah over the last few years whenever i get a message from tv people i just ignore it but i do want to say is that the ones that have gone really well are generally the like no-named like documentary type like individual well there's that one time what was it cast or what was it was it you're talking about just people yeah just like regular people that yeah i'm not i don't want to go on any big production tv show whatever but like if someone wanted to do i don't know some video thing yeah yeah like those always go really well remember ryan ryan millers this guy ryan miller yeah he's the lead singer of gustar love right he's so funny he made this he made this show years ago i don't think he's doing it anymore you guys could have been like twins on okay now you're cutting off every sentence no we were friends we became friends so he made the show called making friends with ryan miller because he wanted to meet weird people in in vermont who were productive you know like the the high functioning nerds is i think how he described it i was like yeah okay i get that and i was in the first episode of that and that was great you know he came and was like actually wanted to to meet me and get to know me and learn about things i learned some stuff about him like we actually had real conversation and then you know i still talked to him once in a while now like we like but like all the big tv production people they come and they want to start fights like they want okay we gotta we gotta get jamie to fight and i'm like why don't you guys just come with me while i do my normal day some situation will come up like i'll be out in the water in a boat and something will go wrong and i have to do repairs on the spot or some tree will be falling on my house like something always comes up you know but they always just want to be like you gotta get getting fights um somebody apparently would be very impressed if you created a force field to cover your island what do you think about that about creating and i think i have nice teeth that was said oh i do have nice teeth for a second i was like look at her nice um what do you think about that about about building a force field well not a force field per se but like well an artificial environment that you can control that sounds great i know right i mean i wouldn't want to i wouldn't want to control it too much but it would be cool if i could be like yeah so like two inches of rain well every time i hear something about this it makes me think of what i originally wanted to do with my life before i started doing this all this off-grid and you know philosophy stuff like what i originally developed new technologies and one of them that i really wanted to try to figure out which made i might not have succeeded but i would have figured out something along the way accidentally was like anti-gravity like i wanted to like start working with i don't know magnetic field and like electricity and just start doing experiments and try to figure out anti-gravity because when someone figures out the connection between gravity and electricity like everything's gonna change you know just like when someone figured out the connection between electricity and magnetism oh that just it opened this huge world of like crazy i mean everything all the technology we have today this thing i'm looking at this this microphone all this stuff happened because someone figured out that electricity and magnetism are connected in this certain way and you can affect one with the other and i wanted to work on things like figuring out how how gravity can be affected by other things but then as i as i got older no you find questions and then as i got older i was like wait a minute what we are doing with our technology is for the most part making our lives worse so what am i going to make more technology open all these doors just so we can use it to you know have more wars or you create more propaganda to control people like we're just using all this technology or so people can you know like people stare at their phones all day and that becomes their life oh i was just wiping something off your elbow what are you doing um and i didn't want to just create more technology that was going to be used poorly and that's when i started going in the direction of thinking more about like coming up with a way to live that that took advantage of technology in a more positive way and coming up with you know philosophies of how to live and stuff like that and that's that's what got me sent on my whole line of life that i'm going down now with the adventure builders club and living off grid and trying to figure out how to create less garbage or even take garbage and turn it back into useful things and stuff like that okay so a couple of commenters have been talking about clay clay yeah what about clay clay roof tiles clay roof tiles is because they said that you mentioned something about finding a clay deposit on one of the islands or oh there's definitely clay around and i've experimented with it a little bit i have a clay cup downstairs that i want i need to fire it's been there for years it's dry it's ready to go but i'm like anyway you have reasons clay tiles i'm not sure how to attach them to the concrete roof in a way that's going to be satisfactory to me because i don't want to put any holes in the concrete roof and here's the thing i could come up with some way of connecting clay tiles to the concrete but i don't think it's going to be any better than just making cement tiles so i'm just going to do that what was your other question what else were you looking at oh sorry um oh look i've been talking for over an hour already let's just jump it okay so this question keeps coming up and i know we've been kind of everything on tv is a lie that's true dave dave knows what he's talking about that was dave brah you know dave dave dave borrell oh dave borrell yeah dude dave what's up you have yeah that's what i told okay this guy says you have your own tv show and that's what i ended up telling the lady who's trying to get me to go to la and and you know be on this show i just told her i know i i have a show right now where i can do anything i want and yeah i don't get paid the amount they were going to pay me but like any any ideas i want to express any projects i want to do any i can you're not centered i'm not i'm not i'm not beholden to anyone i can i can try to put forth the message that i think is important and that's what it really came down to whether or not i do a good job of it i can try to do my best to do you know to put out a good message so and man all the stuff on tv is garbage message the projects you do are so cool do you publish plans or specs for the boats you designed or well this yeah this comes back to what i was talking about earlier about wanting to build a new boat so most of the boats well pretty much all the boats i've built so far i'm just kind of using materials that are around and a lot of times i'll end up using garbage or things that i've recycled from other projects and stuff like that and if i were going to build a boat with plans i would need to build it all with like store bought materials so i could tell people okay you buy this size thing and then cut it this way and do blah blah blah whatever and i do want to do that i want to build an aluminum aluminium boat all with with you know four by eight sheets of stuff riveted i want to do it riveted hold on and i don't want to weld anything i want to rivet it all anyway maybe maybe at some point i'll do a fundraiser for that and maybe people who who want boat plans can you know chip into that and i can build this this boat that's all with with store bought materials cool and i've got i really want to do it actually over can you turn the stove off hello from norway wait here's this question right here have you thought about modifying or building your own power supply and i think they mean like i think you talked they said something earlier that you had talked about wanting to like figure out how to make your own like inverters or like batteries or something so i think that's what this is relating i'm not sure what the question can someone elaborate that yeah maybe elaborate a bit on that question yeah because like you know my power supply right now is solar panels and i do modifications and stuff but okay so in brilliant time have you oh i think someone might have been saying use clay instead of burning use clay instead of sand he might have been talking about in the in the concrete um so i understand that you can put some clay into concrete and the clay will make it more waterproof you want to go play on the swing and i have done that like no no don't don't feel that you're gonna pull the whole thing over okay do you want to go play on the swing you're gonna go play outside oh have i had considered building halls out of rigid foam i've thought about it the problem there is you know if you hit a piece of i don't know hit a rock or something or like if you're up against the dock that would be the thing being up against the dock or anywhere that the foam is hitting stuff the foam is just going to get chewed up right so if i were going to build a boat that had a foam thing i would want to have fiber bus or some kind of hard surface on the outside or i could even do aluminum aluminum on the outside which would be cool um what about uh can we talk about how what the update is on the gas toilet situation i haven't done it i haven't wait but we can talk about that it does produce gas for sure like every time it gets clogged or somebody forgets to flush the toilet when you do it like produces this smell well you can you can talk about that i don't really know that much about it though like so a few years ago i built this what i call the fart machine i got two i got a three-year-old and a one-year-old here who are laughing their heads off because i just said fart so i built this fart machine so like okay stop so you know pee and poo and food waste and stuff goes into the fart machine and it gets digested and produces methane and uh doshana says it's producing methane it definitely smells like it is like not like poop smell it's like so at some point we need to put a tube on that and you know turn it off and wait a little while then turn it on see if you can light it yeah and i also have one of these built at my house yeah and i haven't actually tested it yet um but there's another product that this thing produces which is fertilizer so it gets this digested kind of uh stinky water out right back and i've i've taken fertilizer actually yeah and i've taken you know a bucket of that stinky water out of the fart machine and put it on plants and holy cow my yuka is growing amazingly so i've got two different areas where i have yuka planted and the one where i put this you know stinky water from the fart machine fertilizer that the plants are like twice as high as the other one the leaves are huge and dark green it's growing really well i have potatoes growing there and all the grass in that area is growing really well so the fertilizer out of the fart machine is uh working really well but i've not actually checked the methane on the one at my house or the one here just because i know i guess i've just been doing other stuff but i do want to i want to connect a tube on the one to my house soon and just i mean maybe it's maybe it works amazingly well and i'm sitting here you know cooking with with wood and not even realizing what i'm missing how much room do i have for crops uh how much wait there's another question okay let me just answer one question at a time how much room do i have for crops how much room do we have for crops to shana like my my what how much room do we have for crops i mean i've got like over 20 acres of land yeah we have a lot of space that we could actually farm what are you eating right now oh peanut sorry um uh air trace stuff in my mouth so i've got one i've got one piece of land that's the biggest chunk of land it's not and it's not in the island of itself it's it's on a bigger island dude you gotta be quiet because we're talking um but that's like 20 something acres so i've got lots of land and on on my island i don't know an acre and a half or so a couple acres i'm not sure how much but there's enough space to grow a bunch of food i don't have it all planted yet like if i didn't have so many animals i could but the animals are at the bottom and they make the poop for the plants yeah i i was gonna say is that if i didn't have so many animals or better fencing system for them that i could probably do more in terms of on the ground oh thanks blackwater boys um oh that's rolfy rolfy yep you say hi rolfy like rolf like like rlfie okay he lives in new york cool um so and he's very musically inclined oh like he plays musical instruments last we maybe see see the farm island i'll have to so i've shown it before and it's not really an island it's actually a property it's like a parcel of land on a bigger island that we could never own in a million years oh no that's huge that's like i don't know it's like 10 miles this way and like 10 miles that way or something and jimmy has shown it in a lot of his videos like when he's been on the property anytime anytime i go cut wood with a chainsaw or collect water from a stream that's on the farm the farm and we just call it the farm because eventually we want to make it a place where there's like a community and like well no originally originally i was growing a bunch of food there oh that's right and then it was going pretty well for like a year and a half but then the neighbor behind has cows and once the cows got wind of all this food they just uh and so eventually we have to put like a fence up but i mean it's a huge property yeah so that's like a big project maybe that would be a good project to do for like when people want to come help or something yeah because that would be a multiple person project that would be useful but i also on the farm i also want to build a campground i've been thinking about it wouldn't just be a campground i was thinking like building little little domes with like that had the little domes on it well i was thinking like a campground like people could come and rent a thing for some cheap thing and just stay but not for like 10s like we were gonna make little like dome things for them right i think i just said that yeah yeah were you cutting me off while i was saying it so you can tell me what i was saying if this was the thing that we talked about like doing the little village has anyone been keeping score of how many cutoffs there are no don't keep score i don't want to do that because i'm totally gonna win i'm gonna bring your attention to anything is really cool oh nice yeah someone sent no no it's some some people have sent $100 that's spectacular so far i'm with you guys talking i feel like oh my god where does that even go it's it goes into your youtube like and then we just slide that into the bank and then you know what this is you're right man that's so useful do you remember those telethon oh no okay one thing i never want to do is i never want to with the 800 number at the bottom yeah so so some people have donated money while we're doing this which i think is spectacular and thank you so much but one thing i never want to do is is the yeah the telethon thing like could we could we get another donation here and can we uh we've got this many we need to get by this many hours and because i feel like that's that's that what people want to hear no they don't so i also try never i never do that in my videos you know i never say like and subscribe it's just like if you like this video great do whatever you want but i do very much appreciate question skill me up says considering the potential flood tide on your island we consider building a seawall along with your raised garden beds the one thing oh he's talking about the um the low part in front of my house yeah uh seawall i've thought about different things with a seawall i mean it would be nice if i could just have a grassy edge that just kind of takes care of itself i'll have to see how it goes though because you know if the ocean keeps going up or something i might have to like build an actual wall or maybe at some point just to make it convenient to park boats and stuff i want to build a seawall and you could have like little the little things where you could tie the boat up do it what are those cleats cleats the little boat tires let's call them boat tires no what did you remember a long time ago over i did a little arts and craft video you remember the tie up yeah the tie off the tie off the tie off anyway it's like right now the ground is good you know it's not it's not eroding into the ocean or anything i parked the boats up to it there's a big steel pole that i can tie the boats to everything's really it'll just all be raised beds and that'll be a higher ground level so i won't have to worry about you know the water coming in because a little bit of that area does get flooded during the really high tides which happened a few times here right the king the king the king god the spring ties that are depends on who you're asking whatever the really high tide but at some point yeah that land's going to be higher i might want to build some kind of seawall yeah but i've i've got some time to think about that first i've been thinking about it too with the wharf yeah well the the concrete wall around your island is pretty awesome yeah i i just don't know how long it's gonna last because you know concrete and seawater has some interaction that weakens the concrete however roman concrete and this is the thing oh somebody asked about that actually yeah so there's a big thing about how amazing roman concrete is and from what i understand uh the big advantage to roman concrete is when it's next to seawater normally it's it's not any better than the concrete we have today from what i understand it's just when it's next to seawater the roman concrete actually gets stronger because it has some beneficial reaction but most concrete we have today weakens next to seawater so maybe i can figure out how to get some ash or can i use can i make wood ash to put in it i don't know enough about it is it ash that they put it or was it like pumice or something like i feel like no it's it's it's volcanic ash they put in it and then it makes the the concrete react with the seawater in a way that makes it stronger and i don't i don't know if i can use some kind of wood ash or if there's something i can do there are volcanoes baru not close enough that i can just go get it and i wouldn't yeah and i also wouldn't know how to get the ash because they haven't been active in a long time bit yeah but i don't know i'm at some point i'll probably look into something another idea is to just you know stack up car tires but as someone mentioned earlier that leeches toxins like into the water and into the land so at yeah at some point i'll probably want to get into a seawall like if nothing else to make a nice thing to park boats up against so it's easy to load and unload without worrying about oh my god i'm eroding the land what's amazing no i don't don't start getting into that don't encourage that um would you consider doing an all day four plus hour work stream on twitch it may bring your content to a new demographic do you know what twitch is yeah okay i've never i mean i know what it is i've never i saw calvin on twitch a couple times yeah i don't know how you would do that well i don't have internet at my house so i can spending four hours here um so yeah i don't know may i mean the thing is do i want to get internet at my house like we could get this is something i have thought about a little bit like we could get a repeater to bounce the signal to my island it's not that far um the problem is the problem is once i have the internet oh it's so addictive then it's like like what i one of the things i love about my house right now is i wake up in the morning and you don't check your email and i don't check my email yeah i'm like i wake up in the morning and like what can i do like what can i actually do in real life not like oh i wonder if i got any messages overnight let me check what do i got oh not something or how you're let me check an hour later watch hours are going yeah let me check uh you know it's it's really it's really calming to not have that coming in and it's really good for productivity just not having the internet you know someone else someone mentioned last week they said yes turning the internet off is like the best thing for getting anything done do you want to talk about this since we were talking about roman stuff i just want to say skill me up you're coming up with some good stuff dude this is great concept okay yeah what did they do in the okay someone's saying what did they do in Mediterranean roofs like the the ancient how did they seal their roofs yeah how did they seal their roofs well yeah maybe i should look into that on the internet i don't have i i go on the internet when i'm here for like 20 minutes every week um but yeah i i want to yeah that would be interesting to look into start a section in my discord that's about jamie research even though i swore i wouldn't have anything about jamie in my discord but where people could put like research that they've spent a lot of time on right it would have to be research that he spent yeah but not just like a million hours of watching youtube videos like actual real research getting to the real answer that's that's something that's kind of becoming a lost art today because today research has become well i looked on the internet and i spent three days looking at you know oh so you're going to build a volcano tom said oh lindgren said yeah no if i yeah that's right if i need roman concrete i can just drill a hole into the ground and build my own volcano that would be much oh wouldn't it be nice oh i think ken's going we'll say bye to ken um next adios ken next project make a volcano uh dust man's taken off so let's see uh oh you want to say thank you peanut budget so well Eli he just sent us money for a peanut budget and i was just talking about how we need to buy peanuts to grow some peanuts yeah and i found those wild jungle peanuts which i think are gonna be really cool and this other kind that's like a this guy wants to know who would win batman versus jamie dude we would be bro oh my gosh if i met batman even if we were in some conflict if i actually met him i'd be like oh my gosh where did you get these motors do you manufacture themself can i can wait the steel cable where you get oh my gosh how did you build this thing about research he's referring to research yeah okay someone was talking about research may involve reading books in a library yeah that too but also a lot of research a lot of the best research research i've done is getting a little bit of information from places and then trying stuff and seeing what works one of the best sources of information i found that has stuff that works the most often is old time stuff yeah it's like ancient stuff because our whole world right now revolves around disposable like our like the economy runs on disposable everything if disposable things stop the economy runs to a halt and everyone dies ah but like in the past people had to build things to last so learning how how people used to do things is uh really useful for trying to figure out how to do things long term i just want to say joe i actually have been trying to work on trying to figure out how to get a moderator on jamey's thing but there's an oh with it what's that oh i don't even know where to start i like i have too many trolls no i can't like on my channel i had to go on my laptop to do this oh and since i didn't have a laptop functioning until recently like i have to go on a laptop to do your thing too because it doesn't accept it on my tablet which is really annoying but i'm not married no i know joe definitely thank you for volunteering for that and i do i am working on trying to get you into that so you can you know moderate careful stuff like that um when i first started doing my youtube channel i moderated it myself but once i got over a certain number of people i just wasn't okay wait wait more importantly who's my favorite wants to know who's your favorite actor well the first person that comes to comes to mind is bruce cambell yeah now he's he's done some terrible movies but like he's done like three amazing movies three four i don't know he's had a few amazing movies he's awesome in them um but i once wrote a letter to bruce cambell years ago like a long long time and i said hey do you have any you know what what would you tell someone who who was young and wants to be an actor isn't sure what to do what would you what advice would you give him and he sent me back a nice little headshot and on the back it said great question jamie my advice is to just act find anywhere you can do it don't worry about what it is just act anywhere you can do it and that was one of the one of the things that got me to to get a camera and just start doing video stuff so thanks bruce cambell for getting me going there the other person who comes to mind is rutger hower i think he died a few years ago but he did some amazing movies and he's an awesome actor like just in terms of like a really good actor he's he's super good yeah yeah he he took a movie called uh hobo with a shotgun and actually made it interesting but i wouldn't recommend that one of it um actually one of my favorite movies that he did was uh uh the blood of heroes or salute to the juggers depending on if you're in europe or north america it was all post apocalyptic and it was about this ridiculous sport but the thing i loved about it is these guys who were playing the sport had this there's an impossible championship to win i mean i'm using the word championship very loosely here but there's a game they couldn't possibly win but they they they well i don't want to give away the story don't do it my favorite movies are when people come up against an impossible challenge and then they're just like let's let's set everything we've got against this challenge and do whatever we can that's kind of what i wanted to show in my movie yeah although by the time i made the movie i already done the thing and i was like oh i know what's gonna work out okay did you ever if you remember the experiments you were doing with the electricity through wire screens in the ocean how did that go okay this refers to an electrolysis experiment and there's a bunch of stuff on about this on the internet where you take two electrodes put them in the in the ocean and one electrode is you know attached to maybe a wire mesh or some kind of wire thing that you want stuff to attach to and then because of the different different charges stuff like minerals from the ocean would start accumulating on this wire mesh or whatever you're doing like seashell kind of stuff like kind of concrete kind of stuff like it's like attracting it yeah like and over time it just accumulates this hard like durable coating and some of the stuff on the internet makes it sound like it's going to be amazing yeah and i've tried it here and it hasn't worked very well it worked a little you know it it accumulated some stuff but it wasn't that strong and it stopped really quickly like it didn't accumulate a lot and i've spoken with some other people actually in Panama who've done this experiment and tried to get it working because it sounds like it would be amazing like if you could just build a wire frame under the water attached electricity to it and then it turns into like a solid seashell of whatever oh it'd be amazing it'd be like a clam though without the all the all the people i've spoken to in in Panama and actually in the Caribbean have said it didn't really work very well and i don't know if it's this area like the the seawater here or or if maybe it doesn't work anywhere but this is i've only spoken to people like in this area so maybe some people in other parts of the world have got it going better or something but it sounds like it would be a really cool thing okay so Jimmy Lindstrom apparently had the question so go ahead and ask him it was squished meatball i think i said something about Swedish meatballs what's your opinion about bubble hotel was a great movie Bruce Campbell what's your opinion about megalithic type building construction geopolymer i don't know i need more i need more information i'm not sure what it's talking about i have not been on the internet enough to know i would love to go back to ancient times and take some good like good technology evil cyborg pop says can building be purely mental and not physical or do you think physical building is key to your philosophy uh yeah i think if he's talking about my philosophy like adventure builder stuff i think physical building is a big important part i mean maybe we could have a debate and you'd say well there's this circumstance where it doesn't matter but you know from from my experience like uh all the physical stuff like this is why one of the virtues in the adventure builder club is strength you know health and all that is is important mental stuff is important too and like like your brain is a physical thing that uses energy and if you have good health and endurance you can actually think better and stuff thanks dude so thank you unprofessional engineer for your donation um we have a we had a question about oh thank you very much too i'm doing my best i'm glad you're enjoying it about seaweed do you eat it no i haven't eaten seaweed i mean i've tried a little nibble but it's so good the seaweed salad not here though oh i'm gonna say do you have seaweed actually some of the seaweed out there i think is edible i just don't really know enough about identifying well people people grow seaweed yeah it's great by tying like something that floats to a i think a piece of fishing line down to like a rock at the bottom or something and then on that fishing line seaweed will grow and you pull it out and take the seaweed off and eat it so if that's the red edible then imagine the stuff that's in the go start munching on the bottom of like the dog um oh somebody just asked this question am i expecting my house to sink over time um yeah i mean you know it's the ground here is clay which is kind of like a very thick liquid so yeah i mean i'm hoping my house will sink and just it will compress the the ground and become more more stable over time but i don't think it's gonna i don't think it's gonna like sink like 20 years from now i'll lose a story or anything what's mbt i don't know okay so scale me up i have no idea what mbti means but i'd be happy to try to answer the question if you could most bombastic thing how far under the ocean have you gone in your boats danie the quad would like to know well the farthest uh probably like 20 miles from here yeah yeah and then 20 miles back like out into the ocean well i never just go out into the open water but if i go that way that's pretty then it's all open water for like a while yeah for a while um all right let's see but yeah the farthest i've gone from home in a oh briggs meyers type indicator i don't even know what that is i mean i know what it is but not like enough that i could say something about i mean i know it's a personality thing thank you carol that's about it i'm so happy to have inspired you and improved your life in some way that's great that's actually my favorite message is just like people saying you know you've inspired me because that's really cool because like it makes all this all this doing the video is totally worth it okay let's see what else you've got have you worked with air creek before oh maybe the question how far out in the ocean the furthest from land i've been is probably about seven miles yeah yeah like from any land from any land like just water what was that going that way yeah when you're when you're out in the middle and i've been in a storm there and it was like you're like i'm gonna just if i if this boat has a problem now i'm swimming seven miles in like big waves and wind and it was actually you'd be able to do it it was at night too oh yeah i'm not dying i'm making it um okay so have oh here this is a good question you had the radio playing enigmatic says you had the radio playing for the first time in a recent video do you usually work without music and if so what made you think during that last video yeah i usually work without music unless unless i feel like it well unless well what was what was the situation there was the kids are over and bellatrix said hey can you put on some music yeah and i have old music which is music that i like the 90s no it's not it's not that kind of old it's just music that's been on my computer for a while and then i got some new music which is in a different folder which is a bunch of techno that i got off a hard drive recently so she'll be like hey can you put on some old music or can you put on the new music or this one here is always like play mr robot oh yeah oh my listen to that like a hundred times in a row oh thanks dave man dave must be doing good i shouldn't presume that no thank you very much um for the donation dave thank you so much well thanks just for being awesome dude too thanks for being a creator and a destroyer and hopefully more creator and destroying the bad things and creating the good things um you remember his tattoos yes they told me they were awesome um oh here we go astral economics says they think about buying a private island daily this is the only goal i work towards at what oops where did that just go oh at what age did you know you wanted an island and can you compare to home setting our city also what did it cost you okay and somebody else heard bun joe b yeah yeah that would be in the old music folder okay sorry wait what was the whole question about um buying an island the cost of it uh compared to home setting no no no at what age did i know i wanted i wanted to live on an island ever since i was a little kid you know like i would build little lego island fortress hang out my little lego man would be there and i go out go out my giant robots and my boats and stuff um but i also want to live in a spaceship and i still would love to that'd be awesome um but the age when i thought it was actually maybe a reasonable thing that i might actually do is probably like 20 something um actually you know when i first moved off grid i bought a mountain and that was always my second choice i was like i want to live on it well not counting outer space not counting outer space if i'm on earth i want to live on an island and if i can't do that i want to live um maybe get a pedicure that my nails that bad thank you though no pedicure's for you but actually i have a i have a pretty beat up toenail so thank you nike and for your donation just now wait what was my um so we're talking about home setting where city and how old you were when you thought you wanted to live on an island and my second choice was on the mountain so when i first moved off grid i bought this piece of land that was basically a mountain and after i'd been there a couple years and it was amazing my my first living off grid experience was so cool but eventually i was like you know if i can do this why can't i get an island like it's not that much more ridiculous right i mean my answer to you didn't in didn't spark that right you oh no i already want to talk about it well you're talking about the first time i met disheina i asked her some question about where she would want to live if she could live anywhere and she said i want to live on a planet with some ocean and some universe you asked me if i want to live anywhere in the universe yeah and what i want to live and you answer the question let me i want to have some walkways and some little huts on some boardwalks out in the ocean basically you want to live on the ocean and hamsters and hamsters you remember the hamsters but you wanted to live like on an island basically yeah a little different than this but not different though your worth if it had a couple little huts on it well when you get the little huts you've got everything but when she told me that i was like okay here's a girl who actually maybe wants to live on an island and that's that's why i was like well maybe i won't stop talking to her you know i was there anyway was there oh what did it cost okay so so when i moved to a mountain that was pretty easy because there's lots of mountains so you have to buy a piece of land look at it it's like well that's basically a mountain islands are a lot harder to find and and the price varies so much the price varies hugely remember the place in the bahamas it was like yeah a million i mean if you have like a hundred million dollars to spend you can get an island no problem but i would say it probably cost 50 000 in traveling and you know staying places in travel you know all all lets several months maybe like even a year to get here and that's not even buying the land no this island your island was five thousand dollars and uh i was like if we don't get anything else we have this and i was thinking even if we don't get any other land there's this really nice bay here i can build some little floating houses and stuff like make some floating islands but then uh it was like bloop bloop bloop well then other people in the area kept coming by and saying do you want to buy this island that nobody wants or cares about and i'm like what do you want what are you talking about nobody wants it i want it but of course i couldn't say that i was like serious face um well i guess i'll go take a look at it oh my gosh look we said oh that looks like an all right place what do you want for it five thousand dollars they only want five thousand dollars oh my god oh i guess i could swing that um okay so somebody oh wait no and they also wanted to yeah what was the other part of the question versus uh city okay homestead versus living in a city i oh the difference is just i could not like i love waking up in the morning and this is what it really boils down to i wake up in the morning and i'm like what thing am i going to do to make my world better today that's what homesteading is to me because like every day you get to like just figure out what to do am i gonna you know build a house i'm gonna make a new new vehicle what to do what not to do am i gonna go plant some some yesterday i planted an avocado tree and i'm so excited about it because like five years from now or eight years from i'm gonna get avocados out of it and like every day i can do stuff like that but living in a city it's like okay i've woken up now i need to go to work you know and uh even when i had you know i had my own little businesses and stuff going but it was always like i can make money that's what i can do to make my life better i can make money and buy something that's that was city life but here the money like everything doesn't have to be funneled through money i can just directly do things i can take my bare hands and go out to some dirt and turn the dirt into something else and i can make a shovel and make that a lot easier okay i do want to say is i do see there's my side of the mountain that was a great one i see there's a few questions for me which i'm not ignoring them but i'll come back to them yeah answer them we only have like seven minutes left do you have some you can answer quickly or i don't know what i was gonna say is that i will come back through the comments later this evening and over the weekend i'll probably do something on my channel about questions that are being asked directly to me anarchy television says wait anarchy television says he would be totally set if he had a lightsaber and a tartis uh would be pretty sweet so oh here we go any cool treasures on the island and the there is an old clock so i got a bunch of like old brass parts that weren't disintegrated oh there's always shoes you find shoes out in the ocean because people you know the you know crocs are made out of foam that floats so any you know like every week or so i'll come across a nice looking shoe just floating around in the ocean left the left one no we've got some matching not matching enough where you'd be like oh you bought those but like matching enough that you they'll fit both your feet like car canyon has actually has one on right now just oh yeah it's both on but they're different we found this in the ocean that's the worst one the other one looks much better it's really good like anyway or what were we talking about okay right what was your question oh i don't know it doesn't matter we were talking about oh treasures oh yeah yeah i haven't found anything real good and i've done a lot of digging and like your island and my island are like 99.99 percent like pure clay like no rocks pure clay well when i when i dug out my house and that was like months of digging like a lot of digging like i dug out a huge area i got enough rocks that i could hold in my hands and that was it do you want to answer that question i think we should excuse it instead of building a giant robot how about building a homemade backhoe shovel to help clear land canals gardens well why do i have to do one of the other oh i think it means a combination thing oh well if i build a giant robot yeah i could be like a our moving dirt kind of machine yeah that'd be cool um do you barter or trade with locals some yeah uh do you want to talk about how we don't have hurricanes here yeah there's no hurricanes here that's brought up a lot so um so let's see the last hurricane that hit Panama was in 1960 yeah and it was and it wasn't even here it was like on the mainland yeah um where is the mighty shark slicer oh it's at my house i need to well i just did a tune up on the zombie no i just did a tune up on the zombie chopper so the shark slicer will be next soon i'll oh my god get the barnacles off it and tell me some goats cool are you gonna bring them um do you have i didn't mean to cut you off so anyway we're talking about the boat so what is it doing it's just needs barnacles cleared off of it oh yeah the shark slice yeah i need to get the barnacles off and yeah just do a tune up just go through it you know so it's still usable yeah i i mean i used it like a few months ago to move something big the floorboards the the wood i need right in the cross i need to replace a bunch of those and yeah i just want to go through it take everything apart i actually kind of want to modify it i want to change the roof so i think when i get to this shark slicer which is my biggest boat i want to like really renovate it yeah okay so this is an interesting thing that has been brought up a few times and it's about the avocados being planted from seed what about them well apparently there's a rumor going around that you can't plant avocados from seed because the avocados that come from them the fruit taste terrible but i think where do avocados come from strange because i don't think any locals here have actually on purpose grafted any avocados and there's a them growing wait wait wait wait wait have you had an avocado that was terrible no that's what i'm saying yeah well that's i mean is my point and we have tasted we've had avocados that are just like falling off trees that are just like that the trees were not nobody was grafting yeah people were just yeah seed i'm fairly confident that the avocados i've planted will come out all so buttery and delicious those avocados are so good so there's a variety of local avocados so good and they just i don't they seem to grow like crazy because like the kid we got them from he would just bring like avocados he just brought buckets of them and i'm pretty sure they weren't transplanting or grafting trees like i'm pretty sure and they grow from seeds oh yeah they're they're not doing any of that and those seeds grow super easily tom can back this up he says that tom says that that's not really true i've grown avocados that are great but not exactly like the original it sounds kind of like apples yeah like you know there's going to be some variation oh thank you mr landfill for ants oh apparently i have had joe says i've had 646 cutoffs and jamie has had zero oh you are such a bitch i think he may have been slightly biased wait i'm going to cut i did go ahead cut you unsubscribe i'm unsubscribe manifestation not mental festation i think there's a conversation going on here that i don't know how much does it cost you to build and how long should i learn how to build one before buying my own island belize island or baham islands which is better oh building air creep versus earth creed domes i've never built an earth creed dome i guess that's like built mixing dirt with uh cement oh supposedly you can floor ones supposedly you can do that if you compress it really well and but i don't know i've never the reason the reason i did the styro creed was because i kept finding styrofoam in the ocean and i had this big pile of styrofoam that i pulled out of the ocean and then i was like there's tons of styrofoam so i just started asking people for the styrofoam and anytime i can turn something from garbage to something like long-term useful i think it's a good thing my adventure builder philosophy tells me it's good go ahead i want to ask a question i want to ask you a question about i love how you are resisting cutting me off um so we were going to mention the monetization thing oh yeah there's some yeah people had a bunch of questions about my videos still had ads on them even though i turned off the monetization do you want to talk about the thing with youtube well i'll just get into that real quick so i wasn't really making any money on youtube just because the buy skills me up i refuse to put the news for making so my i was getting like basically nothing so i turned off the the ads on youtube and then they started having more ads and then the shana looked it up and apparently a couple years ago they said if your videos are not monetized they can just put ads on your videos whenever they feel like so i was like they are monetized they can do it i mean seriously even if you're in the partner program and you don't like let's say you choose to not monetize some videos yeah they can just slap it on there so you won't get paid for them so i was like fine turn the monetization back on and we'll just put the minimum advertisements on but then there was a lot of really cool stuff that he discovered that youtube was had added to their monetization thing and that was this cool super chat thing where people could participate in it like i have no idea how this works or anything but people have donated money during this chat which is spectacular and amazing thank you and the other thing i want to make sure that we talked about was that now it also allows us to tie jamie's store like the spread shirt store store is actually on his channel now at the very top you scroll over and it says merchandise and you can go right to his store instead of having to go to a separate link so they've added a few cool features yeah there's some cool shirts on there someone came to visit and he was wearing one of the shirts i was impressed those are nice shirts because i always spray paint my own shirts like right here i've got adventure builder or actually i don't even spray paint them usually i just like this roller paint with that cool well i'll get like a sponge or my finger or something unless it's a big one that i don't but um so i think but another thing that i sell i don't even know if it's on the links anymore but on shapeways the metal rings those are like my favorite things i'll have to add it to the description i'll have to put that on there you give me the link yeah i don't definitely don't because they're they're little metal rings with all the adventure builder symbols on them and they're 3d printed lastly checked they were like 10 for a brass one yep i got a brass one it's really nice yeah they are really nice yeah um i don't make any money off those or anything okay so let's talk about the wood wood construction and why we avoid it it's super easy answer okay someone's asking about the cost of things in Panama versus other places in Panama they use us dollars so there's no exchange rate exchange rate and it's basically the same cost i was oh and in that question was also something about cheap islands the reason we got this island cheap is because we lived here for a year and met people like we were here for a year before yeah we got a cheap island because the first one was so ridiculous oh and when we first got here it's like $50,000 for this four square foot piece of submerged um coral and yeah it wasn't until like if you want to buy an island somewhere and you don't have a ton of money go live in that place for a year and and get to meet people and that's how you're going to get the best deal it's nothing's guaranteed and that's that's kind of the trade-off like you're not guaranteed but you know you gotta take your chances there's no guarantees in life man termites oh they were answering your the wood question are you improving your spend oh the the question why don't build everything with wood yeah termites basically that's termites and mold actually like those are the two termites though termites is the worst but yeah i mean even with mold like 10 10 year old wood is just like you have to rebuild it all gross i would rather i would rather spend 10 times as the amount of time building something with concrete and then it's not gonna disintegrate you know yeah even if it cracks like you know fixed cracks and stuff but i don't have to like replace the entire rotted thing okay so oh that's a good question because it'll let's end it though with that but hold on because i want to ask you this question right here about ignoring the ending part because that's Spanish yeah how are you how are you doing that improving your Spanish well my Spanish was getting pretty good and then the pandemic came and then the lockdowns and then i talked to people less but i mean it's no perfect though it's no bien pero es suficiente mi español es funciona my my Spanish functions but i sound like an idiot and i know that it's fine like a gringo it's okay i sound like an idiot okay if you have any worse than any other gringo my Spanish sounds like uh if i were to say i'm going to take my dog to the store i is having dog store go like that's what it's and i have to do some hand motions to make sure i is having dog store go like i can communicate maybe it's not that bad it's not it's not spectacular i'm not going to write any poetry maybe i should maybe well maybe you do a whole dude i'm not writing poetry in English okay so with that um we're going to bring this to a close um oh wait we have one more question we have two more questions actually to answer uh when i buy it i love what's the best way to school my future kids home school i have so many options online for it i would home school in any situation because i do i am not down with the schools that are i mean the indoctrination camps they've got going on oh and i just want to comment on the duolingo thing actually there's so many other better programs out there that and some that i'm uh part of that you can get through the library that are way better than duolingo not to say duolingo is garbage but i would say if you actually really want to learn Spanish um there's a few options that are through the library and uh yeah so um yeah they don't care if your Spanish is bad yeah actually i've always noticed that if you go to a foreign country where you don't speak the language as long as you're trying to do your best people are generally pretty cool about it okay so um yeah and fantastic calamity just to further on that so if you check with your local library at least the ones in some of the states do this they offer free access to the rosetta stone app which is actually really good and some of them even do online courses that are free like there's one through the gale system that does uh they do three levels of speed Spanish that are six to eight weeks long each and they're really well done and there's actually an instructor involved who can answer your questions and they're not live they're all like things that you can do at your own pace so um and just to answer the last well i just want to say thanks you thank you for liking my movie and watching it and being inspired i that makes it totally worth making and i'm great thank you so yeah so to bring this to a close guys we do plan on doing these every sunday as of right now at around 11 o'clock yeah i'm thinking kind of attentively it's gotten so far it might just become a thing we have contemplated switching whose channel it gets presented on maybe um but you know i don't know well we can do one on your channel too if you want mine next week or something so i kind of feel like if i'm going to do it regularly i should i should do it on my channel regularly we can do one on your channel to turn your channel on quick all right so guys thank you so much for all of your thanks for being awesome asking i enjoy this so much more than reading comments yeah like this is a thousand times better yeah all right yeah this is actually cool okay so we're gonna say bye and i will go through the comments later and try to catch up with things that we um yeah by your hands or so oh shut all right turn the thing off bye
