On the outside it is made from fir. It is stained with General Finishes, oil based, antique cherry wood stain. It is clear coated with ProLuxe satin finish.

Part 22: Waterproofing and insulating the concrete block walls plus Q & A
Переглядів 12 тис.5 місяців тому
In this video I insulate the concrete block walls with polystyrene foam boards. I also waterproof the Hobbit Hole with a silicone based, paint on, waterproofing membrane. Finally, I install a French drain around the base of the Hobbit Hole using non-woven landscape fabric, PVC perforated pipe, river rock and fill dirt. The whole process is virtually identical to waterproofing a basement. I thro...

      @Odd-Lots 23 дні тому

      It's a silicone masonry waterproofing paint. Aims is the brand, I believe. I'm going to stucco the face of the block, but moisture will still get behind it. The silicone will keep water from entering the building.

    Lovely Lovely Lovely. The brackets look so organic. A contrast to the masonry. I can't wait to see the full effect when you do the interior ❤ As a Brit, I have to say it "should" be green. However, this might be my childhood upbringing as "British Racing Green" was everywhere when I was a lad. I highly recommend it. If it were a vibrant blue, I'd think it would be destroyed by Orcs at the first opportunity 😮 The racing, and therefore, traditional colours of the USA are now Blue with a white stripe. But they changed this from an earlier Red colour. I suggest (and I might have been over thinking it 😂) therefore that your door could be a rich RED. This wouldn't hurt the eyes, and if you got hold of "Post Office red" it would also tie in with letterboxes and phone boxes that definitely would have been around at Tolkien's time. ... or green. I'm not fussed.😂 Cheers 🇬🇧

    I think what you've done is wonderful and this is no critique against you, but every one wants to do the Baggins door, and that's fine, it's the one everyone knows, but there were more Hobbits who lived there, so you can customize your door as you see fit. The color, fixtures, everything is changeable to create your own version. Be your own Hobbit. Loved the video
