Oh, also; the switching back and forth on different tasks isn't uncomfortable at all. It gives the story continuity and keeps it flowing without getting boring. It honestly helps the hour long format flow by in what seems to be minutes. All and all, your videos are great and they keep getting better.

In America we have a saying "measure twice, cut once". In Russia you have "measure 7 times, cut once". The quality of this craftsmanship reflects that. Through impatience and over-use of power tools I question if I could build a water wheel that even functions. Yet you have made something that spins true using the bare minimum of tools. Absolutely incredible.

Everybody, who has ever tried to make a video about something he is crafting, knows how much work it is, to make a filming with intended focus, changing position, controlling the material, saving it, and still do the work you want to film. Great work. I love it all and can't get enough of it. Very good work for filming and the opus itself, genious, I might say. I'm a big fan of your projects, the hut, the waterwheel and your tool manufacturing. The place you have found seems to be far away from any other hut or humans. That can not be found in densely populated areas like Middle of Europe anymore. May this place be protected from any evil-minded creatures.

The detail of how you have learned to spend more (or less) effort because it is required (or not) is very useful. As an Engineer, the tendency for extreme accuracy is always there, so know when it matters or does not is very critical. Understanding the points in time that require extra attention focus on design and where "good but rough is good enough" also helps a person doing it the first time where extra care is a good investment. I enjoy the way you present the material, and using the correct description of the tools used lexicon for clamp types and such, helps those without experience to look up details on more information themselves -- this is very important to those that have less experience to help themselves! Bravo.

For those watching that would like to know more about the Chekhov’s Gun reference in the beginning (2:40). Chekhov was a famous Russian playwright, one of his principles regarding theatre and storytelling was not to lead the audience on to false expectations. “If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If it's not going to be fired, it shouldn't be hanging there” as Chekhov himself said. In short: tell your story with the bare essentials and do not make false promises. Of course do with this information as you please, there are many ways to tell a story. In this video he jokingly said that if we once saw a rifle on his wall, we could expect him to do with the rifle anything but using it as intended. PS: Chekhov’s own funeral was almost something out of one of his plays. Upon his death his body was transported from Badenweiler, Germany in a refrigerated railway-car that upon arriving in Moscow offended friends and colleagues when they saw that the railway-car originally was made “For the Conveyance of Oysters”. Then on the day of his funeral, thousands of mourners mistakenly followed the wrong procession, that of an army general. Chekhov called many of his plays comedies, even though they often were melancholic and bleak. I think the unfortunate events surrounding his funeral would be something he himself would find pretty funny.

I am a structural engineer in Canada, and you have inspired me to try creating new things and learn wood working! I have watched all your videos, and each one makes me want to get out into the bush all the more. Thank you!

Max, this was Awesome. The balance and absence of run out that you achieved when you first turned the wheel was truly impressive. Excellent Video

All in all, what I love most is the elegant mix of complexity and sobriety that you succeed in delivering to your widely spread audience. Also, it seems like you are on the path to building an entire village, bits by bits year after year. Thank you for sharing your engineering low-tech soft -but rather practical- skills with us.

I watched a movie as a kid that had a waterwheel in it and have always been fascinated by the idea of building one. Your video has essentially built that water wheel. Thank you for your hard work and attention to detail, I loved the video!

This is indeed a very clever way of building a mechanism out of timber available from the site as a waterwheel that is harnessed by hydropower energy for a log cabin camp. It is truly an ingenious piece of project of love and great skill. Congratulations.

This was absolutely incredible. Thankyou for doing this extended, almost documentary style video. I enjoyed seeing you switch from project to project, and I think you linked them together n nicely in editing. I like the fact that you use modern tools when appropriate and switch to bushcraft tools when you can. We're still in heavy lockdown here in Australia with very little opportunity to get out into the bush for two years. I can't wait to take my chainsaw, cut some boards and build something simple, bushcraft style.

Governments don't want us living like this, being independent and self sufficient. Governments rely on their people's perceived need of them, which is why they continue making things worse for us. The worse it is, the more people think they need the government, the more power the government gets.

You had my interest during every minute of this video . I find your ingenuity, intelligence, and eager to do the hard work so refreshing and inspiring. I am constantly amazed at your progress. The effort you put into filming and editing did not go to waste. That fade-out shot, from the frog on up to the drone's overview, was a beautiful piece of editing and the perfect way to end such a great video. Thanks for sharing this with us, Max. I hope you’ve been well. Stay safe.

I sat and watched this with great satisfaction and after a short while my 7 and 6 year old daughter saw what was on my screen and promptly cuddled up to watch with me. they sat through almost the entire thing and the 7 year old is watching me type this comment. Very Enjoyable and relaxing and the breaks between activities was fun as well. My daughters and I are about to start a wood working project for the first time using recycled pallets and other construction site wood. I hope you have a great day and thank you for the video, I learned a lot!
