Join us as at the viking camp as we spend our first night in the bushcraft viking house. We have been building the viking house using hand tools only. Now the house has foundations, the timber frame with rafters, a bark roof, a stone fire pit built with clay, some raised beds using traditional woodworking techniques. We felt that now the viking house has a roof, it would be a good time to do the first overnight camp in the house. For part 7 of the series we cooked up a feast Dustin cooked a leg of lamb over the fire. He also cooked fresh bread in the cast iron dutch oven. We ate lamb which was slow cooked over the fire and we put it on the fresh bread with some avocado and potatoes. It was viking food with a twist We have had great fun building this viking house with hand tools. We still have some more things to build so Part 8 will be out soon Come and meet me at The Bushcraft Show 2019 I'll have a stand there so come and chill and chat at my stand. I'm going to be camping there for the whole weekend. Get 10% off your tickers with the code: taoutdoors10 on their website: VIKING HOUSE PLAYLIST (EVERY EPISODE)

What an amazing project You guys are very creative and even the scraps have a use. I love how you hammer with a small log. The long fire pit is my favorite - especially the way Dustin cooked the lamb. You may not be professionals, but you behave better than most professional shows I've watched. You get to work straight away, bypassing all of the idle chit chat so common among the pros. When you do talk, you explain what you've been doing with as few words as possible, yet you're very thorough at the same time. You make very good use of your time and you have great teamwork as well. And Dustin may not be trained as a cook, but from what I've seen in these videos, he could shame some pro chefs because, honestly, there is no better tasting meal than the one home-cooked over an open fire. The only thing I would personally do different, is to build one like this that I could live in permanently. But then, that's just me. Lol. Thanks for sharing this fantastic build with us. Now I'm looking forward to your other builds. :) Best wishes to the four of you.

Oh a P. S. If thats cedar get rings from between the knots and split them into shingles with your post peeler? Then you can make a totally rain proof roof of the bark covering. No roof is complete with one layer. Also this episode was vicariously, rewarding and EPIC. We all can see the fabulous adventure you made of the prep work, this time. Where was Dad eh?

I see you use the word Viking to mean anything Scandinavian. All the Baltic nations had raiders and traders. There are stories of Jomsvikings being Slavic and Scandinavian and maybe other like Latvian or Finish. Most Scandinavians of that period were not raiders and traders.

This is what getting back to nature and bushcraft is all about; not historical accuracy or doing things perfectly, but using as much of nature's bounty - as well as taking taking a few modernized shortcuts - to simply have a good time. Great video guys

Olive Oil and Avacado, popular foods among the Vikings. LOL Seriously though, you absolutely made me hungry and wishing I was out there with you guys. Question: Is there anything English people eat that can't be put on a piece of toast? LOL

Greetings from U. S. I've been looking for a good bread recipe to bake in my D. O. Any chance of getting your recipe. Your videos are outstanding. We all can learn so much from you fellows. Thanks so much and keep the videos coming.

I love how that spins. Brilliant. The pit with the tunnel turned out a lot like the rocket mass heaters. Great job. I wouldn't use all the old tools, simply because I'm impatient but I'd have one of these in my yard. Super cool.

I loved the authenticity of the rig for cooking your Lamb Leg or whatever that lovely piece of meat was. Do you remember the exact year the Vikings invented fishing line? LOL Sorry, great video, seriously. I learned a lot.

What about several of those windows on each side of the house near the roof to let the smoke out and ventilation/light during the summer months as well? Would one of those cedar windmills up at the ceiling help?
