We have to stiffen the roof frame. a window in a door and then fill these spaces with some type of moss or clay fire pit and we are ready to go so everything is good so I am at that critical stage where I am going to go ahead and Load the ceiling and put this bracket on that wall. We have a Y branch right here, so what I want to do to be safe is get a log and I'm going to place it underneath here now.
I'm not going to just put the log under it and walk away, a lot of YouTubers do that kind of thing and you're just waiting for the roof to collapse. I'm going to go ahead and make a notch in it like a chair and place that chair on the seat. part of it under here and the back of that chair against the top or the side of that post and then tie it down like this all the loads can be forced towards the seat of that chair and towards the ground um so kids like this um well then Some wonder how that window is hanging.
It's magic? Well, I possess magical abilities, but that's a completely different video. All we did here was put a log under the sandbag here and under this sandbag here, so we wedge it in. by using gravity it's like pushing down on that trunk and then I just used two tree knots and tied my window to that trunk which allows it to swing up and down simply so from here all we go The thing to do is go grab some common moss and we're going to plug up all these holes and try to keep out the bugs and the rain and the wind, things like that, so do it right, so Vault 76 is now complete, but it will be dark inside, so I want to improvise some kind of handmade chandelier.
I did this about two months ago, but it was different. This one here is a simple Y-shaped branch, cut it about six inches on this side, if you look at where the fork starts, it's about three inches. On this side, all I'm going to do is sharpen the end and then push it against the wall. It's got a slight curve, like a hook, gravity pulls it down, so what's going to happen is it's going to lock into that wall and then it's just going to melt away. some wax here, place the candle on top, easy, lemon squeezer, so, um, so, okay, so what are we going on here?

I'm digging these dirt pits, these are great though, they save me a lot of time when cutting logs and I can just dig a hole in the ground. and boom, there you go, I really appreciate it, watch my videos until the end and share them with everyone everywhere, take me back to that feed. Hopefully this build here will be fired, who knows, or in a tank and copied everywhere and theirs. at least shoot yourself, but decide here first what we have left tonight, light that candle. There's something I want to try with that candle too, that means the battery is almost dead, so great, let's get in here, light that candle and take a look at it, okay? here we are, we are inside our sandbag shelter in the forest, the sail seems to be working, so this is what it is, less battery usage, my feet have plenty of room, I can actually sit inside the shelter, um , it would be a Comfortable, I sleep, it's one of the biggest shelters I've built, but it was a bucket list item, a sandbag fort in the woods and I'm happy with it.
We repurposed an old shelter and made something exceptional, so I hope to stay here tonight. so I'm going to get all my stuff ready, turn off that fire because it's too hot, I'll see you all in the morning, so oh, always great, look at this from the edge of the window, it doubles as a coffee stand. This party started, let's talk about the shelter, what are we doing here? Well we took an existing hole in our shelter on the hillside in the forest and simply made it deeper now this shelter was different we had two objectives not just one we wanted to combine a bunker style army containing a covered hide with a bag of dirt, so we dug the hole deeper to cover our logs.
Okay, now we reinforced those trunks with a support beam right here on the Y branch so that it could actually support or support the sandbags. there we built our wall in our window opening, at that point we went ahead and hardened the roof, okay, so just by doing that, the cover and concealment element for a military bunker completely concealed anyone walking around here unless he walked directly over it. We're not going to see that the cover is now hardened by anything that might fall or fall on top of one and that's it, well now the earth bag house, you want to make this more of a civilian type shelter that will stay cool during the summer and warm during the In winter we added an opening window and a swinging door, then we took our moss and filled all the cracks in all the spaces to keep the mosquitoes and bugs out and lastly we added soil and then we dug our fire pit so two for one and I'm happy like I said last night this was a bucket list item and it turned out well like I said cape vault 76 and there you go all night
