On our channel we are uploading videos from works we do on a piece of land in the north of Portugal. We are planning to reconstruct two ruins that were abandoned for more than 40 years. The plot is located in a beautiful valley close to a river, that you will hear in the background in most of our clips.
With our videos we want to share our passion for being out in nature and building nice stuff and we are really glad having found such a great community here on youtube who appreciates our approach and gives such constructive feedback!

Awesome, NC USA 🇺🇸
nice job...that looked like a lot of work....nice reward at the end
Nice to have time and money. How long did screwing that into the rock take say vs some old 2x4 hammered into the ground. Still, very very cool. Get some water lillies for the reservoir to cut down sunlight and algae growth. Where is the run off from the tank going, I hope not to waste. Find a use for it or some way to get it back into flow downhill.
congrats!
Not a ruin, just under loved. If you want an engineer to offer info just give me a reply.
Ola, estou a pensar fazer o mesmo na minha casa que estou a renovar! Poderiam partilhar um contacto?
Beautiful work. I was by chance watching a a 30 year old programme from here in the UK about dry stone walling (not a technique of course to hold water as very different use - to keep sheep in etc). Stone is a lovely material with which to work.
Remember if you make any remodelling that water creates terrible pressure and suction forces as it travels. For instance if you dive into a tank to clear an outlet pipe, once it is clear all the water wants to pass through it - with you in it. You can also get stuck with your head under water in seemingly innocent situations. Nothing in your video was a reason for this comment, more the comments and great suggestions.
Amazing 🎉
Nothing to see here. Only destroying Nature.
Where are you guys🤔
Hi hidoito, we were quite full with work the last month and could not find the time to cut and upload a new video yet. Please be patient for a bit more and we will follow up :)
@@vale.do.salgueiro all clear, looking forward to see your progress!
Long time since you posted any updates. I hope you both are doing well
Hi HannaZiadeh, thanks for reaching out. Hope you are also doing good! Yes you are right, we were quite busy with building stuff and our jobs the last month. Unfortunately we could not yet find the freetime to cut the next video, but amount of footage is growing. Hope to upload a new one soon :)
gran trabajo ¡¡¡¡
Great job!
Great job, love it!
Wow, a work of art! Very nice!
Чувак, очень много суеты и бессмысленно убитого времени. Видно, что у тебя нет первоначального плана и представления, чего ты хочешь?
bro didnt even show the finished product
Brother what is up with that tape measure
It is in Portugal
Good job
beautiful house, but you basically destroyed the traditional building style by pointing in the outside and with cement mortar of all things. Well it's just one more ruin ruined by tastless people portuguese or foreigners.
Looks amazing. We are also in north PT and renovating a ruin. Currently building a water tank. What’s the white liquid you added to the concrete? I guess it’s to water proof it. Is it PVA wood glue?
Hi Paul, nice to hear that you are also doing a water tank project! The liquid is for making the cement waterproof, yes. You can google for example for "SIKACIM HIDRÓFUGO PARA BETÃO" but there are also many other brands
Is this a double-faced wall? Or was there a single stack of stone? Why repoint? Were there problems with the structure of the original dry stone, or it's just to be safe? What a beautiful old structure that's certainly worth preserving.
Hi BookOfNick, Yes it is a double faced wall, here they call it a "wall of two brothers". No the dry stone would probably be stable however a lot of ants and mice live in there so we wanted to keep them out. Also when opening the windows it was necessary to stabilize the wall first.
Im sorry, but what a waste of time. Poly tank.. $1500. 1 hour to install anywhere on earth.
So is this just for recreation, a self-filling swimming pool? I've never heard of a granite tank before. Tremendous workmanship but can someone tell me its purpose?
Roman dodecahedron is it a filter from a stone water tank that sits at the bottom where the water exits? people dislodged the dodecahedron over the years to play with, old stone tanks became funerary. Recycled
I don’t understand what the purpose of the tank is when you have a river right there?
looks good but do people going to use it ??? what its use??
Now where the hydraulic electric plant? Up stream lol awesome work
Mancano i sottotitoli , buon lavoro
Here in the States, it’s assumed that the delivery driver is responsible for the safe unloading of any product unless advised beforehand. In this case, the driver would be responsible for the broken pieces, and i would have rejected the delivery of the broken pieces. There is the option for purchasers to unload themselves, but that is clear at the time of purchase. What a shame to see the broken pieces which likely were VERY EXPENSIVE already.
Yes no way I'd pay for that delivery
In Portugal it is more difficult to get a refund from a driver. They usually dont have an insurance or anything... But you are right that would be fair.
Нічим не обгрунтовані труди.
I hope to see a new video soon. Love what u do 🎉
Go on, give us a clue. Where is this? Looks a lot like Portugal, but could equally be Italy. Or even somewhere else...
Amazing!!! You make it look so easy. It turned out beautiful.
Outstanding!
You’re killing your self .Get a machine please.
Amazing - congratulations guys.
i will def. try this at home, since i have - by coincidence- a one meter thick old stone wall in my garden, which needs an opening
Now I know how the pyramids were built😅! Great job, nice to see your progress😉
Is this house in a rainforest?
"Don't try this at home" - How many of us have old stone cottages to not try it in?
really impressive masonry work! great job
Great project!
👍👍
Super travail ! Quand l'intelligence et le savoir-faire humain se mettent au service de la nature ❤🙏👍👌 Le coin est splendide et très inspirant.
Συγχαρητήρια Πολύ ωραία δουλεία αλλά και επικίνδυνη Ειδικά εκεί που έκοβες τισ πέτρες με τον τροχό ανάποδα Και πάλι μπράβο σου επειδή τα έκανες όλα μόνο σου
.....in quale paese vivete?🙄
Nice Dude, I still have your Surfboard :D
Thanks Dude and I have your number, will text you :D
