We’re trail building in Steelville Missouri! This is the second feature I made on the trail build for Surfs Up. In this episode Im showing you how to build a bridge that you can make in a day that is not only simple but extremely strong.

  1. Bro, this dude is sooo underrated! Ur editing skills are just through the roof! Keep up the great work man!

  2. I'm not sure of the climate where this is filmed but won't those water notches you cut act like wedges when the water in them freezes? Is that/should that be a worry?

  3. You could just place the logs in position.. measure and mark them and then take them back out with the machine and the cut them with the saw in an easier position and then place them back on the bridge.

  4. Nice Dude, such a great build follows the last perfectly, look forward to seeing all the rest of the features you're building in this park. Wish I had such easy access to such great wood like you do, couldn't imagine life if that was possible, so many things to build. Have you ever put any of the logs aside to properly dry and then do dimensioned lumber for building "fine" furniture or the like?

  5. I admire your knowledge of wood feature building and its always so high level.
    I thought of you while I was driving through southern Missouri returning from Bentonville. I'm going to make it a point to hit some trails you've built stuff on in 2023. I'd love a tour or at least a recommendation of where to begin

  6. Did you change the thumbnail right after posting? This was recommended to me an hour ago with a different thumbnail I think

  7. Any risk of the outer support logs rotating because of the rounded bottom and the edge cut, if someone were to drive a car across or something? Otherwise looks great!

  8. When your talking bridges, they're not footings, they are more appropriately called abutments as they abut the crossing. Also if you want a stronger bridge you place the stringers/girders across the span, then ties over the stringers/girders, then a running surface in the same direction as the stringers/girders.

  9. dude take a break! you look so tired and worn out.
    i last watched your channel about a year ago and you look so much more burned out

  10. should've put a slit angle to the edge logs so that water doesn't sit in the corner and deteriorate the wood by sitting there

  11. Great work I guess you are just trying to make me nuts by working barefoot. Ha ha I already know what it feels like to step on a nail

  12. Got a chance to check out your work at Howler this weekend. You’ve got some talent and will be seeing your work across the country for sure. Keep it up

  13. to make your board gaps easier… switch your spacers each board, then you can't get them out of wack.
