YouTube video (Richard Perkins) documenting the arrival and storage of ten large tipi/teepee units for a farm event/dining area, details about pole numbering and canvas sets, plans for a larger farm kitchen/platform, a walk in the nearby forest, a short gadget segment (3D-printed Mavic 2 Pro release clip for fishing), and acquisition of a second-hand industrial meat bandsaw to help process beef on-farm. The video closes with a note about processing meat soon and a registration call for an online Regenerative Agriculture Masterclass (registration open until 20th November).
Chapters
Today is 10 tipi day. Oh, no. Where are we gonna put all this? Hey, wow. Teepees coming. Now we've got to work out where to put all this.
Now it's workout day.
Now it's workout day. 10 teepee from the sune branch. Look at all these teepees. So, folks, this is the teepees that will replace our dining area and teaching yurt that you see at the back. And we don't have any way to store it out here. We're going to be putting a kitchen unit here, like a mobile kitchen. So for now, we're just going to store them up off the ground and we can borrow one of their tarpaulins, hopefully to cover the wood. And that's the best we can do for now. Perfecto. What do you think? One and a half tons? Yeah.
Well, you have 500. That's the one complete, except with 18 of these holes. I think it's 760 kilos.
It's a lot of poles. See, look, when we unclip these, this is when it can move. So you don't want to stand anywhere near here. Think. Wow, Raggy. That's the heavy end. You. Okay.
They imported. Now, this one is marked with a number.
Yeah, yeah.
And you can't mix the main poles. You see the number?
Yeah.
Because you have a canvas with this pole set.
Okay, Just the main poles? Yeah, just the main poles. Okay.
And also the cross poles.
We've got these ones here, so we got to keep these separate.
Yeah, so you just need to have them.
I got it on film. So.
Yeah.
I've been strong in this. You are very strong, my love. We should have called you Bjorn. You're so strong. Here. These yurts have given us about 40 people seating capacity, but these teepees will give us double that. And if we open the sides up, you can triple that. So it's growing with our farm as it grows. Very nice quality. This is high quality spruce from the north of Sweden. So it's a lot tighter grain, a lot harder wood. See here I'm going to build a bigger platform. And so our farm kitchen will be here. And you'll be able to come big serving window, get your food. This will be opened up at the sides looking out into the garden. But I'll need a bigger platform, probably about 13 meters diameter. And then I'll build steps around this side where it's up in the air so you can sit in the sun here. It's going to be beautiful. Whoa, Ragnar, you are so Strong. So two separate piles. Because they have different numbers, they're actually built to the canvas. And so we keep the two separate piles for the different teepees, and they'll help us come and put them up for the first time in the spring. It sounds like. If folks are interested in 10 teepees, where do you ship to?
Well, we ship all over the world.
Uk.
We have sand for Maldivina, Maldives. Yeah. So France, Germany, everywhere.
This kind of size one is used a lot for events and music festivals.
It's easy to build, and you can connect them. You have many tents in in a circle, and you can vary them a lot. And you can always build them with walls if you like. You can raise the brim as well. So you have a lot of different areas that you can work with them. And they're popular with events. So I think it's a very nice tent. You can do a lot with it.
So, yeah, you can check them out. Yeah. Tenttipi.com Yep. Tenttip.com and next year, you'll be seeing these go up along with our little teepees in the forest. Whoa. Right? Is it big enough?
Take the green one as well.
Okay, so here is canvas and fittings. All right. 90 kilos canvas. Oh, that's okay. Okay. Job done. Proud owners of two Stratus mega teepees. Ragnar, you're so strong. Helping. Well, it's horrible. Rainy day. Ragnar and I are going up to the forest to find toads. She could be. Have to get on my back. Oh, yeah. It might be slippy. Made it. Let's go see. Look, this tree's blown down. We haven't been up here so much since we cut the forest. Just doesn't feel the same in this old tree house anymore. Looking out over moonscape, but still, this is a very beautiful spot. This is the edge of our property, running straight up a line. There's two marker posts here going down there. So this isn't our forest, but we love coming up here. So a little bit of work to do on this step. Been here all year. Just look at the view out here to the lake. Look. This is a good spot for totes. Little coral fungus. It. Someone has learned to hold their breath a little. Show us on your tummy, because you're good at that way. Nice. Soon we're going lobster fishing. Check out this little baby from South Africa. This is a 3D printed release clip built for the Mavic 2 Pro. Built for the Mavic 2 Pro that allows you to hook up a fishing line, fly a few kilometers out to sea and drop it with the press of a button which means we can go tuna fishing. I guess you lot are going to get bored of seeing beef. Just going for simple mashed potatoes. Beautiful entry curl mushroom. Keep it simple. We got 300 kilos to get through so I guess you're gonna get super Bowl. I always like to just get the crust on the beef and get it in butter for the last minute. Right. So mission on. I'm on my way to end sherping to go and pick up a second hand meat bandsaw. An old industrial unit that I think is going to be a great investment for helping us break down this animal. The cost of slaughtering and butchering animals professionally here in Sweden is really expensive. So buying a good machine is going to make light work of jobs like this for securing food for our family. Thanks so much. Okay. Check out these babies. Not sure which one of these it is, although I think it's the one at the back here cuz I remember seeing this. Woo, That's a beast of a machine. So I decided to get this one because as you can see you've got a lot bigger working height and a lot bigger working depth than you'd get if you buy a machine like this. New super expensive but this is industrial. But if you buy a cheap home scale one you don't get anywhere near the cutting depth and you don't get a sliding platform. And the beauty of a sliding platform is that you can really easily put stuff in there spring loaded so shoots back. Now this one's running on three phase but that's no issue for us. Super cool. Ah this is a beautiful machine. These guys have all kinds of machines for sale. Pretty sweet. Also going to pick up chopping board, proper job. Well that was a success. It's a long road home now it's most of the way to Stockholm where I've come but really happy with that machine that looks like the part. Now we looked at a few consumer models as I said and I am super glad we didn't buy a consumer model because they just look like they suck. This thing is industrial strength and you can tell it's just going to last forever basically. And whilst it's a bigger tool than you really need for, you know, the small amount of cutting that we'll be doing, it can handle anything in there. It's big enough for everything we could ever need including woolly mammoths I reckon. So I reckon it was a good bargain. So the meat's been sitting here since the last videos and we've decided to start processing it tomorrow. So we'll let you know about that in videos in the coming days. But the reason we're processing it now is there's not ideal conditions in here and the temperature and humidity aren't that easy to control precisely in the way that we might like if we longer age things. So I think we're going to process it, be safe, get everything packed and ready and then do some aging on some specific cuts. But excited to process this and we'll take you along with us. Okay, big day today. Lots of missions, but that's it for this video, folks. Don't forget the online Regenerative Agriculture Masterclass is now open for registration. Lots of people from all over the world have joined already and registration is only open now till the 20th of November. We've put a payment plan in place for those of you that requested that. Hope to see many more of you in there. We'll see you in a video soon. Bye for now. T.
