 Oh, there's opus. Opus are driving past guys. There they are there. All right guys, welcome back to the channel. It has been a hot minute since I've made one of these videos. I'm up here at this new DIY spot I found, probably named the jungle. Yeah, I've been sitting on this spot for about a month now because I've just been waiting for the right time to make my attack on this spot. So I'm up here this evening. The sun goes down in a couple of hours. That'll give us some kind of cover. Cover of darkness is gonna help us out here today, but I'm just gonna show you guys basically how this spot sits right now. So we called it the jungle because there was a bunch of trees everywhere, but it seems like when I first walked in here, I'd seen all these trees that were knocked down or whatever and I was like, oh, did the lightning strike or something or did the wind blow them down? And I was like, okay, maybe. But then I kind of looked at the other trees and it seems like someone's had a hack at the trees. I don't know why, because they offered really good shade. Like this tree here was like super tall and this spot was all shaded here, which you'd need up here in summertime because it gets really hot out here. I don't know, what do you guys think? Do you think someone hacked at that with an axe or do you think the wind blew it over? I'm not too sure. Fair enough, the smaller trees, you can snap those branches off, but yeah, I don't know if someone's like, just come and done this here for fun or they're gonna work on this property here. I'm not too sure, but they've left up these trees and there's a tree over there. That's the same things happened. You can see all the branches laying on the ground. Someone snapped it off. So I'm not too sure. As you can see, guys, there's a bit of space up here. Pretty much when the slab got demolished, I brought up this red curb here. This managed to make it out alive, so I brought this red curb up here. I have the black rail in the car, but this is a space, so it was a lot cleaner last time I was here. It seems like some little peasants have come here and thrown bricks at the ground and made a mess and some little scooter dogs have made these little iron kickers here. So I've got a little bit of cleaning to do today before I start drilling in this rail. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna pop the rail maybe in the middle here. But yeah, you can see there's like a wall here. So you could build a bit of transition on the wall. There's a stair set there that's really dirty and old. I don't think I'd be bothered cleaning it up to skate it because literally the run-up is just grass. I think some little peasants would have done this because you can see the branches have all been stripped back on the tree. I don't know why. We're just in that part of town where it's pretty dodgy and there's little peasants that get around and get up to mischief and stuff. So yeah, a lot of animosity driving up to this spot with all the stuff in the car ready to build again. I'm not too sure how long this one will last. So I'm gonna take it a bit slower on this one so I don't get my heart broken again. I do have a locally sourced bench here. That's good, you can move it around and skate it. I've got some cool plans for this spot providing that it stays low-key. I really need to get some shade cloth to put up across the front fence so no one can really see in from the roadside. As you can see across the road, they're doing a bit of construction and they've got some construction mesh up, locking the view, so I need to get some of that to put along the front fence. So if any of you guys have a plug of where I can get some of this mesh stuff for cheap or even for free, let me know. It would be much appreciated. Anyway, I think I'm gonna start sweeping up and then planning out where I'm gonna put this rail. Here we go, guys. DIY Diaries Episode Eight. I think this might be the spot, just smack bang in the center. I was gonna place it over this hole just here, but I figured if that rail is there, this is gonna be replaced with a double-sided ledge. So I didn't wanna have the rail too close to the ledge. So I think that should work out if we pop down the rail right in the center here. Plenty of room either side. You can hit it from this way or the other way coming back. Eventually, that hole can be patched, you know? I reckon this might be the spot, guys. Things right now, I'm in Zacko. About to pick up some Besser blocks and some Anglion and a few other things to get this ledge underway up at the jungle, so yeah. McBunnings drive-through, guys. We've got our receipt and the old mate here is gonna check it off for us. Here we go, back at the ute. Sweet as we're done, we're good. We're outta here. Bye, boys. All right, guys, we're out here at the jungle right now. Just loaded in all these bricks, as you can see, better the Anglion there too. I've just gotta tally up where to put this ledge. I've got a bunch of farmer's friends all over me. Seems like every DIY spot's got farmer's friends. Yeah, I'm gonna figure out where to put this ledge. The rail is still in, which is good because I put this rail in early this week. Haven't had a chance to skate it yet actually because I had to come and put it in at nighttime. I think I'm gonna put the ledge in this square here and you can come around this way too and then hit it and then, yeah. So in the middle here is the spot. Rough mock-up of this ledge right here, guys, check it out. Sitting pretty. I'm gonna move this out of the way, obviously, so we can skate it correctly, but I think this is the spot, maybe. I might shift it so it's in the middle of this square a bit further because it's a bit close to the end there, so I might have to pull it down. I didn't bring a tape measure. Zaku's out here getting flicked, so make sure you stay tuned for these flicks. They're gonna come out and dope. So yeah, I might have to shift it down a bit further, I think, start gluing these bad boys together. Just to get all the bricks glued down with our bare hands. The corking gun done itself a mischief, so I had the good one at home. So we've just gotta cut the angle up now, glue that down, and then let it set overnight and come back and skate it tomorrow. So, yeah. Have a go at these gloves. Completely busted. Throw these in the bin after. Which way does it cut? Let's get out of it. It's chasing now, look. Oh, there he goes. Got out of good leather. Oh, man. It's gonna be a good, funny episode. The center's gonna go in a bit. How does it? That way. Yeah, it's not this straight. These, they're not super straight, but let's hope they hold. It's all right. That looks good there. Oh, there's oppas. Yeah, they're rolling in behind. Oppas are driving past, guys. Gotta tuck our stuff in here. Get in the bush here, bro. You reckon? Yeah. They can't pass yet, no. They went in the back there. They might just, there they are. They'll watch for the jacks. I know they've parked up there, down the bottom. You guys can see. There they are there. And the cop there. What are they doing? We'll just sit here for a minute. Anyway, guys, this is the ledge. She's all done. I do want to render it eventually, so it's like a smooth skatepark ledge. That'd be really fun. But yeah, this is a nightmare to throw together. Started off really strong. Had all the bricks lined up. And then, yeah, the caulking gun just kind of done itself a mischief on me. So now, you know, had to squeeze it out of my hands or stomp on it. It got really messy. Ruin my pants, you guys can see. I'm not too sure if the liquid nails are gonna come out of my pants, but I like these pants. All right, guys, next day we're back. Ledge looks pretty set in. Let's check it out. Not bad, not bad. Not bad at all. I mean, considering the glue was kind of all over the place, it didn't come out too bad. Check it out. Quite tidy for what it is. Like I said, guys, I do want to render the top and the sides of this. Make it all smooth so you can ollie up in the middle there and skate it. But yeah, time to wax this baby up and see how she goes. It is hot out here today, guys. It's coming into summer. We're in spring right now in Australia, but yeah, spring turns to summer very quickly. So, had a good little session up here by myself. It's awesome. I'm really happy that there's a ledge and a rail because they're the most fundamental things to learn on. You can progress from there. That's everything you really need, you know? So, I'm glad there's a spot with just a flat ledge and a flat rail that isn't in a park where there's nobody like... You don't have to wait your turn or you don't have to wait for scooter kids to get out of the way or you don't have to worry about running into little children and stuff. So, yeah. This is what it's about, guys. Skateboarding, going out there, making it happen, getting creative, and yeah, enjoying the ride. Two, four, six, poppy up.
