03 - Big Barn Build Part 3 I Solar Powered Cement Mixer!

Big Barn Build Part 3
Solar Powered Cement Mixer on our homestead in northern Portugal
Hello, We are the Scotters, We are a family of five who are starting an off grid homestead in Northern Portugal. On our channel, you’ll find videos about our journey, our projects, our successes and failures, and all the fun we have in between!
We’ll be covering topics ranging from sustainable living and off grid solutions to home renovations and building projects. We’ll also talk about our experience of moving to a new country and all the challenges that come with it.
We hope you’ll join us on this journey and be a part of the adventure!
Thanks for tuning in!
Kayla, Badger, Wilfred, Betsy and Trixie!

    If you want to use the roof for rainwater collection I would go with the tin. It’s less likely to grow mould or moss which is important when collecting water. The tiles are also more likely to crack if any of the surrounding trees drop a branch. With the lower pitch make sure that it’s not too low or you’ll have leaves etc collecting on the solar panels which will limit their productivity.

    Love your channel and your happy people energy!!! The olive trees at the border of a slope makes harvesting olives more difficult. Usually you put big fine nets on the ground and shake and rake the olives of the branches. A flat ground helps to make the labor intensive harvest easier.

    Hallo scotters, I love your site. I think you made a mistake with the olive trees. On the edge of such a steep slope it will be very difficult to prune and a nightmare to harvest the olives on the side of the slope. I think you better plant them on a flat terrain. Many greetings from Thailand.

No sítio o de plantou agriões, também poderia plantar poejos que se dão optimamente nesse local. Quando lhes deram a indicação de fazer um círculo de terra quando plantar uma árvore, é para que retenha a água. Quando mostra o plantio da oliveira, fez um círculo incompleto e como está num declive, se chover bastante vai levar toda a terra para baixo. Terá de fazer todo o círculo e reforçar a parte do declive com algumas pedras. A vossa quinta é maravilhosa.

    Hello, we enjoy your vlog. One thing is concerning us it is the planting of the olive tree right next to the road. The tree will get big and you usually don't trim the tree from the side but from the height, usually look like a donut, we thinking it may damage your road, the roots, and limit the kind of transport you can get as the road will be narrow, and what about the time you harvest the olive one side of the tree will be very high to the ground and the other side on the road, good luck to you all, only our 2 cents.

    Tin is far better for water collection, also easier to keep clean and finally it’s far lighter putting less weight and pressure on your supports.

    Lovely idea with the watercress. Wonder if it is worth adding gravel to keep the water clear. When you see the watercress farms in Hampshire they use concrete channels.

    It's good to see your enthusiasm and it's nice to have an ""olive entrance"; but, did you think about the time to pick the olives (and afterwards, to prune the olive trees)? It is not a matter of "fancy" that olive trees are preferably planted on land that is as flat as possible...

    Happy birthday. What about that moulded recycled plastic tile - comes in sheets, so easy. My only concerns with that is will it go brittle in the sun and you would have to fix it really well as in a wind it would act as a sail. Worth looking into - just Google recycled plastic roof and it will come up. The ones that came up for me were orange coloured and look like portugese tiles from a distance. Oh bless her about splinters into trees
