I want to live in either a hut or a hole in the ground or both. This will be on a large parcel of land near my home where I’ll go to shower, keep food, and stay when I want. Does anyone have any suggestions for huts or underground bunker type things? Also I wish this sub was more active.

That's called a basement

go watch alex wild or any number of bushcrafting channels that do dugouts and copy one of them.

It's active enough that good shit lasts long enough to enjoy it and learn, any more active and that means constant shit posts being made the bump the good stuff into oblivion.

Look into the creator on tiktok “Will Survives” he’s done this but did it on federal land and they made him fix the area, now he’s on other land rebuilding his house as a hole in the side of the mountain. He posts updates and you can see how his plans and ideas change as he runs into problems. He’ll catch fish for food and shit out of rivers. I think he’s doing this in New Mexico in the mountains of Oregon I can’t remember. If I could go back 10 years when I was 18 I would go move to a state where this is doable and live like this for 2-3 years. I’m too old now, have to focus on making money and shit. Maybe in my late 30s I’ll be able to fuck off and do it though.

Thank you this is very very similar to what I had In mind but I needed an illustration

That was my original plan but I don’t want to spend several thousand dollars on a connex when I know I’m going to spend a lot on wood and other stuff for it. Also I really want to build the whole thing myself and using a connex would be sort of cheating. I want it to be pretty primitive as it well

look into the natives of the aleutian islands. they were largely underground most the year upto when they encountered russian seal whackers. not in caves but dugouts

actually that photo reminds me of those inflatable concrete buildings that are way cooler than >>2645931

I go to sleep at least 3 nights per week thinking about this. Even a simple dug-out not even tall enough to stand up in would be fine if it had a stove and maybe a roof window for light.

I could go there and lay down in peace, isolation and nature. Nobody would ever know where I was going. The problem is that I'm in the UK and every bit of land is already accounted for; what little "wilderness" we have left is hundreds of miles away up in North Scotland and even that is managed land.

I would have to find the perfect hidden patch, probably need to plant nettles around it maybe then I'd be able to have one before it gets discovered and wrecked by kids in tracksuits.

based hobbit bro

It should go without saying that if you intend to use it as any kind of proper residence do your homework and make sure you aren't on a floodplain.

Personally I've always thought carving directly into a mountain would be the coolest shit, but just making a house then chucking dirt on it is orders of magnitude easier. Mostly though I've always thought just using your roof real estate for SOMETHING, even if it's just growing boring grass, is better than just having a roof that does nothing but keep rain out. Seems like almost every home in the United States is missing out on an entire floor of walled in outdoor space.

Mine a 3x1 block hole and jump down, put a dirt block above your head so that you don't get eaten by zombies.

>Leaks
Build on a hill retard
>Floods easily
Build on a hill retard, (more specifically make sure your hill isn't on a flood plain)
>Cracks during earthquakes
Not if it's built from lumber instead of concrete blocks, that said I would want to make double sure of the sturdiness of a hobbit hole if you live somewhere with earthquakes.
>Difficult and expensive repairs
I suppose I can't put a smug one sentence counter to this one since it's entirely too subjective based on the design of your hole in the ground. The one I've been planning out for a while is specifically made with ease of maintenance in mind, but I imagine most people who decide to live in a hole don't have any education in architecture so I have an advantage on that front.
>Mold
Build on a hill retard.
And more importantly make sure it's designed to catch a draft and circulate air.
>Depreciating home value
oh no the hole in the ground I dug to not have to buy a home is losing value ??? real big thinking emoji
>Pest problems
How would an underground house have any worse pest problems than a normal one?
>People will invade your privacy
u fuckin wot m8 a well made hole house would be almost invisible unless you knew where to look

I only looked at your picture and didn't read the article but that almost certainly seems to be about building a traditional drywall square house directly into the earth on your current property instead of properly surveying and finding a suitable place to dig a house designed to be built underground.

How come holes in the grounds like in Hobbitsville or Tattooine(star wars) aren't more common?

>He’ll catch fish for food and shit out of rivers.
I thought you were supposed to shit in the river, not the other way around.

>>2647833
Shit, I was just reading his post and about to post the same thing and then I noticed someone had replied. It was the correct reply. Good job, anon.

>Aren't you supposed to shit IN the river? Have I been doing it wrong /out/?
