Building the walls in new Bunker Tunnel Dave

Btw, no such thing as over the top when it comes to quality. You will appreciate everything you put in and regret everything you thought about but didn’t put in. Just sayin!

Looking awesome Davo

I wish I had 10% of your talent and energy.

New subscriber 👍🏻.. Excellent work 👌🏻

Gets robot lawnmower, immediately uses as tunnel train engine. 😂

Looks great! Love the detailed brick work

If being “over the top” makes for more video footage, then Dave I want all the “over the top” work you are willing to do.

Bunker is starting to look beautiful! The arch is a touch a class, great job!

Great episode

Keeping strait visual lines is never going over the top!

Can you show everybody where my room is going to be?

If I understand correctly, you're gonna put a toilet in there. Have you already done the plumbing for that?

Great video love the attention to detail proper workmanship its great having a swift machine I love mine

OCD rules!

It was probably OTT to cut and space the arch, but as you, rightly, said, you’re going to be the one sitting there having a beer, and, if it’s wrong, it will nag your nuts off.
Keep up the good work, and don’t worry about making this a project you are going to love, rather than worry ‘Is this too much for digging a hole?’

Just found your channel and binged all your bunker vids in one night. Top work!

Love your work Dave. I think you need a boom gate flashing light and bells . When that trolley gets moving

i think its your house and your the one doing the work so its all in how nice do you want it to look if your happy with it then i am if i was doing the work for my self i wouldnt stand for half ass work looking good

Hi man, im sure youve been asked this before, but how come your bunker is so shallow? it looks like the roof will be inches below the grass-layer

Top job nice gauged arch well done 👏

Here from Facebook, you earned yourself a new subscriber

Also I completely understand the cutting of the bricks, that would drive me bonkers as I was having a beer 😂

that entrance to the tunnel is looking just perfect, loved it.

Great progress!
IMO if you want the subscriber count to go higher you need to polish the video making part. It's a bit rough around the edges. Study the rythme and structure of Colin's video. The plans he makes and so on. Not easy but would be worth it I think if you want to change the order of magnitude of subscribers.
Cheers

If i could subscribe twice i would, can't wait for the next video davey boy. Brisbane aus

Do you need planning permissions for a build like this?

Did you get Tom Lamb to dig out your bunker?

Do you have to do planning for this?

Great video Dave. You're right and it's looking brilliant 👍

Great video... and taking your time to make things to a "top quality" level is not over the top, its spot on. Very well done and i can't wait to see the finished product. Cheers from Australia.

Dave, it's your Mancave and you can have it the way you want, even if it's hard to do lol

Unbelievable Dave fair play to you from Ireland. Would love to be liveing near by to help u out 💪👍when ever you would need it.

Just wondering, Why not have the waterproofing on the outside? Is there an advantage to waterproofing the inside? Cool project. Subscribed.

Just a suggestion, recess the train tracks into the concrete through the standing area so you dont have anything to trip over.

Cutting each brick for the arch is well worth the effort.
I am a 59 year old bricklayer and I can tell you it was the right thing to do.
The other way is exceptable but not really for facework.

I do the same thing as you when I'm restoring arches for spillway's or bridges, etc, when I'm doing volentry brick work restoration on canals and ralways in the UK.
I want the restored brickwork to look correct to me and people looking at in in one or two hundred years time.

Will the tunnel entrance be hidden behind a movable fireplace? This is absolutely awesome to follow along watching, will you have a recess for your 100k subscribers plaque in the build?

‘My fridge is going to drive around the room’? You are a legend Dave 😂

perfect, you have many great skills

Idk what your final plans are, but consider "solar tubes" for lighting or spending some coin on a quality lighting system. Natural lighting can be "piped" underground by way of flexible relective tubes. You could hide them pretty much anywhere. Downside to the Fruze bunker is the black walls and the poor lighting. Makes a pretty large room look small, imo.

Why not put gravel on the outside of the concrete? Add yo the drainage.

Why didn't you make a human-sized tunnel?

It kind of becomes a giant pizza oven

Impressive Dave, new subscriber just for the effort and entertainment, but the detail is biblical. I hear what you say about planning, not the quickest ppl to deal with, lets leave it there.

Looking good Dave I’ve been really busy but I’ve come in to see how you’re getting on I’m a labourer these days and have a little bit of experience with a few trades ever want a extra set of hands ide absolutely love to help make this happen no charge

Dave, that is looking great. The attention to deal on the insulation, brick work, tunnel arch is splendid. Can’t wait to see the entire project completed…

I've binge watched all your bunker videos Dave, having been recommended from watching Colin Furze's projects.

Brilliant this Dave. Very impressed with your work.
