Hi! Every once in awhile you come across a video that hits home. That's the case here. I enjoyed your presentation very much! It got me thinking and my enthusiasm is up ... more likely will retune what I have because of this vid. Thanks again!
Good kit! Add 1 pair of socks, foot powder, and an emergency blanket. The socks could be rolled inside a bandana and act as extra padding along the carrying strap. A couple of protein bars will make the trip a bit more bearable.
Magic vid. Not all viewers have the spare cash to spend on the poshest of gear. This was a well thought out and thorough vid. Great stuff. McIntyre Scotland
Finally there is a bottle that match with the stanley cook kit! Thanks to you! Nice kit...
Fits like a glove. Like it was made for it.
Great kit. It gave me some good ideas. I had no idea Walmart had that tarp. I love it. love how all fits together with penny stove. thanks again
Very well thought out kit! You've covered all of the 5 C's and then some. I have a similar cook kit with a small gas stove instead of the alcohol stove. Great job!
For you to be a beginner you pretty much have all the basics needs covered GREAT VID my friend STAY READY!!!!!!
That's a nice , well thought out kit you have created for yourself. I did about the same as yours but with different items. Using the Condor H20 pouch and some of my backpacking items. Starting at the bottom of the of the pouch there is a Oilcamp Stainless Steel Space Saver Cup. Then the Stanley Adventure CookCamp System which fits ( sits ) inside the cup. The tapered sides of the Stanley Camp Cook kit fits inside the cup like it was made for it. Along the outside of the Stanley is a long handled Titanium spoon. Inside the Stanley is the Gen2 Folding Firebox Nano Ultralight Backpacking 3" Stove. On top of the Stanley is a Trangia Alcohol burner so I can cook with either alcohol or wood. The outside pocket of the Condor has a plastic ( Flask shaped ) bottle which has the Denatured Alcohol for the Trangia. Next to it is a fero rod for lighting the burner or starting a fire. Folded next to the fero rod is a bandana which can be used if the handles of either pot gets to hot for a bare hand to touch. All of it together makes one small complete cooking outfit. Thanks to using a wood fire mine has a nice blacken bottom and sides to it which I think helps it to heat up quicker.
To make it an independent kit I am in the process of adding two canteen pouches , one to each side. One will be for water and the other for food.
Subscribed.
Hope to see many more videos on your channel.
Very well done. I like what you've done putting together this kit. I intend to do something very similar for my short term kit. I may end up with a sewed pant leg as the holding bag. it doesn't look like i will be missing too much from the Condor bag given that the stuff is a tight squeeze in there. ATB, subbed your channel.
I appreciate your video. It has a lot of good kit in my opinion. Hopefully you will find it useful out in the woods. Thank you very much for sharing it with us. I too like the paracord strap very much.
Cool small kit and great video. The little "Altoids" tin looks interesting. I have some spare tins I think I will make one and add it to my morning/afternoon kit (which is very similar to yours). Thanks and keep enjoying your equipment.
Thanks so much for the video. I was disappointed to find out the kleen kanteen did NOT fit into the stanley camp cook kit - which meant I had to choose between a cook kit and canteen kit. I am so happy to see that the guyot bottle fits into the stanley cook kit and I can take BOTH a cook and water set all in the water pouch. Thanks again. Best wishes to you and yours.
The tapered bottom of the Guyot backpacker makes all the difference in the world. Makes the good Stanley kit a great Stanley kit.
Love the saw pouch, I got to get me some ;) very nice set of kit :)
FYI: I place my Stanley with contents in a bread bag........slides right in the pouch and easy to get out.
Nice tip, thanks
love the paracord strap
I appreciate you sharing this. We'll thought out and no doubt you are enjoying it.
Use your bandana....lay it out flat then put stanley cup (altogether) pull up all 4 sides of bandana, grip all four corners then shove it in condor water pouch. To take out just grab all 4 corners and the whole thing pulls right out.
You could put some food inside the bottle if you're not carrying water. i added a 5 liter dry bag to either hold water or the gear/food inside. Also, i think you could tuck a 2 person SOL blanket for shelter. Nice kit. Thanks
Excellent kit, very well thought out, good job.
I'm in the process of building a water bottle bag kit and I'm going to use some of your ideas.
The little survival kit is awesome and again some items in it I hadn't thought of.
I suggest swapping the penny stove for a fancy feast stove. You don't need a separate pot stand and they work much better in cold weather (like -20dg). You can also store your small fuel bottle inside the stove.
I use old 5hr energy shot bottles for fuel, they work great.
You are absolutely correct about finding strike anywhere matches. The strike on the box type totally suck and don't work that great in optimal condition indoors much less outdoors, it really pisses me off.
That said I did find strike anywhere matches at ACE Hardware here in Oregon.
Me and my brother have made similar kits but we put a 100 rd saw pouches on each side and an admin pouch on the front, it gives us more room and options. Might be something to look at. Thanks for sharing with us.
I thought about changing the configuration, similar to what you described, but in the end I decided that the extra capacity meant extra weight, and I didn't want it to be so heavy that I would hesitate to carry it with me. Excellent thought though! I'll probably end up making another similar kit and configure it the way you have described.
Thats a great budget setup. I really regret what I've spent on all my stuff, way beyond 50k but I've given most of it away, if I find something I like I buy several and give them to friends. I will never buy another piece of titanium for cooking, it doesn't work. I like the weight saving but you cannot cook with it so, why? The stainless you have, works and its much more cost effective, the only way to go in my opinion. Great job! thanks for sharing:)
The reason for the plastic cups in the Stanley cook set, is if you get into the ultra cold weather. You can't use metal in your mouth, or you'll be walking around with a cup attached to your head for a while, in sub zero temperatures you need plastic cups. Over all a very good kit tho for fair weather! The Walmart tarp was a good find, did that myself a while ago. I would recommend an emergency reflective safety blanket be added. Nothing worse than getting stuck in the ultra cold weather without one.
Great kit you have there! I have that same tarp and two grommets pulled out the first time I used it. So, I took the rest out and used Gorilla Tape on all the points and put new heavy duty grommets from THD in their place. Now it's a decent tarp! I have that Stanley cook pot too & replaced the plastic lid handle with a metal #1 Nite-Ize S-Biner (less to fail I figure). BTW, Walgreen's stocks strike anywhere matches all the time (the large boxes).
IMO, I would take the stuff from inside the Nalgene and put it in the front pocket, that way I could carry water with me & not have to find it if I'm injured or something! I would also keep that knife on the inside of that pocket as I do on my Maxpedition
5-C's kit. I'm in the process of making a similar kit now for short hiking trips. I also always have a multi-tool on my belt and two folders (L & R pocket), as well as my neck knife when I go outdoors. They all serve their own purpose and don't really weigh anything. As far as a fixed blade I have an ESEE Izula in my Max/5-C kit which will also go with me when I get this kit finished. Thanks for the preview of your kit. Nice PC strap BTW too.
I like the idea of the Nite-Ize S-Biner. Thanks for the tip! I will have to look into that. Currently my lid has a split key ring in place of the plastic handle when this video was first made. I have added additional grommets to my tarp since I first got it, but I haven't experienced any of them pulling out like you did. One thing I did do to mine was to add some paracord "anchors" to each of my grommets. I then attach my ridge lines, etc. to those anchors, instead of directly in the tarp grommets. That could help as they give them a little give, rather than placing a whole lot of tension directly on the grommets. In my opinion, for the money, it's a great little tarp. You could also accomplish the same sort of purpose out of tent footprint, etc.
I'm using your hardware cloth stand idea. I was going to buy one ( a stainless stand ) but your way is better. I will save money too. Can also put a piece of wire cloth on the stand to grill. Thanks and great video.
Hardware cloth is a nice way to make the stand.....But do not use it as a grill if it is galvanized. Many of this type of wiring is made with Galvanized steel.....very bad if used as a grill.....great for other uses such as used in this video...Nicely done video..Thank you Gadget
I really like that set up you have there
I've got almost the same thing. I've put the main pouch contents (GSI cup, Stanley 24 oz cup, and Buy it bottle) inside a nylon 5x10 stuff sack and ALL OF IT comes out with an easy pull...goes back in MUCH EASIER than before. Also added a set of Snow Peak HOT LIPS so I can drink HOOOOOT water out of the GSI cup without scalding my lips. Thanks for the video!
Since making this video I have done the same thing with the stuff sack at the recommendation of another viewer. Works great and gives you another container for gathering edibles, etc.
Nice Job did the same thing with my condor set.
very nice kit bratha....loving that strap
nice set up sir. Those condor h2o pouches are like an aladdins cave. I just ordered a Stanley cook set for £10.00 and that price you can't go wrong. Thanks for the tips. Love love love the strap on the bag. Maybe a video there, just saying lol
Give the Maxpedition 12 x 5 carrier a try, lots of room and a great product. Nice ideas, I have the same items.
Thanks. And I love the paracord strap.
Thank you! They are a lot of fun to make.
I have a black one like this, no added pouches yet. I have the same cup, but with a 40oz. klean kanteen bottle. inside it is a drum liner, and a sawyer water filter. I need to look into adding to it like you have thats for the video thumbs up !
Great video and kit. If it were me, I'd think about adding a mylar survival blanket to the tarp bag; handy for a bit more warmth, signalling, etc; cheap and takes up very little room and weight.
Good thought.
amazing kit smart and thought out to the hilt .can't say enough about your resource!!
Thank you!
Good review. Thanks for sharing. If you put your cook kit / H2O bottle in a small nylon bag ( stuff sack ) you will find that the kit / bottle will slide in and out with ease plus you will have a extra stuff sack if needed. Thanks again. Enjoy & be safe
I have since done that based on your suggestion. It does help. Thanks!
Isn't youtube great ? I've learned so much from all the good people on here. Your one of them. Thanks !!!
Add a whistle for your day hike damn good presentation
Hi Matt , nice little kit cheers atb martin
Thank you
love the kit. I've been looking for a container that would fit the Stanley cook cup. I put my cook cup in a bag and it slides in and out of the condor pouch nicely. thanks for the video well though out kit
You should put the M4 mag pouch at the front of the h20 pouch and add a digital camo canteen pouch to add more space for comfort items
Very good stuff. there is a very small isobutane can you can fit in the lid of the bottle pouch and very small screw on stove heads, cheap on amazon, for got the name ben from living survival has a video on one of them, they would easily fit in the front pocket of the bottle pouch, i have that set up in my bottle pouch
Thanks. I'll check that out. Great tip!
Perfect Mess Kit Pack. thanks
Love the strap!
Until this video i had absolutely zero interest in the Hiker's Gyot bottles, never liked how it tapered. You sir, have changed my whole perspective. Your nesting system is fucking mint.
Thank you. Sometimes you get lucky and you look at something and it literally just falls into place.
Any chance you could do a video on how to make a strap out of paracord like the one you have on your pack? That is a really nice addition. Thanks !
Dennis Kuenze Paracord 101 has done a great video on the Digicam Paracord design. ruclips.net/video/J_FENg-B464/видео.html I just modified it from bracelet length to shoulder strap length. I can make these for $20.00 + S&H. You can send an email to 550LBSCord@gmail.com for details.
id add the banadana roll to the pouch with the tarp, that way you can actively carry clean water
I do that when the container has water in it. The contents of the bottle are transferred to other pockets, etc. The fish mouth spreader hooks onto the strap with a carabiner.
I subbed simply bc I keep one of those traps in everyone of my bags
Nice kit! Thank you for the video. Have one suggestion only: Replace that little 10x4 Condor bag with a Maxpedition 12x5 bag. You can jam all those bottles and cups into the Condor, but you have a heck of a time retrieving them from that tight space. Also the extra 2" of length allows you to add an extra item in the stack (think a can of tuna, or even something like a Solo Stove, which I have in mine). Alas, you mentioned money was a problem, so this may not be a practical solution.
Actually, I find Dave Canterbury's NEW water bottle is even better and has more room than the Maxpedition 12x5. you can check it out at his store, Self Reliance Outfitters. I believe it is even cheaper than the maxpedition.
Nice kit atb John
1. water is more valueble in the bottle than anything else, not the place for a bandana, bandana can go between the bottle and the bag, or just tied on to the strap. 2. clipping a knife onto the outside of a bag like that is never good not what it is meant for and likely to loose a good cutting tool. It will fit inside the pouch, clip facing out if you prefer for easier deployment. 3. have you tried using that stove with that kit? I can only imagine that you would need allot more fuel to get those steel cups heated up. That can be accomplished with a bigger stove that holds its own fuel. The pathfinder alcohol stove is a good one for that. 4. has that first aid kit ever helped you? imo a bottle of various pills, duct tape, maybe superglue and additional bleach and alcohol make a better actual use first aid kit......It would be cool to see how your kit has evolved (I know mine always is) are you still using it, Have you done a follow up video? it would be cool to see one.
Can you do a video on how you made the shoulder strap in detail?
Also by using the nylon stuff sack you won't snag the inner lining of the pouch.
thank you for posting this video. you have given me some really great ideas on something I have been thinking about myself. I really like the pack configuration. was wondering, can you find something like it at a local army surplus store?
most military surplus stores will have pouches similar to this, especially the side pouches.
Wholli sh!t! 9 yrs ago? New sub here, got an update on this?
Nice config. What's your rationale for carrying both a pot AND a mug? A little CR123 headlamp probably won't go amiss, they're tiny and will go a lot further than a button flashlight.
Great setup. Well thought out. I've had a similar rig for a while and now, I'm rethinking again by adding the Stanley kit. One question, where do you put the bandana and handles when you have water in the Gyot bottle? Do they fit in the front pouch?
I really don't get the youtube fascination with paracord?
Nice!!!
Instead of the SS water bottle, I keep one of the green cups, my Fancy feast and four oz of Alcohol. Extra lighter and a half dozen other items.
Those Stanley pots are great. $12 at Walmart this week. While you are there they have the cup. Not the GSI. I held one of each in my hand and could see no diff in quality.
I have to get that Condor. Looks like just the ticket.
Are you still making the paracord straps for the Condor water bottle pouch?
I know what's in the kit I bought, or I wouldn't have bought it. I also know it's much higher quality than anything Condor makes, and what's inside it is much higher quality. What makes you think someone doesn't know what's in a hit they buy, or doesn't know how to use it? "I got this from Walmart" does not instill confidence in quality, or judgment.
+James Ritchie This isn't a pre-made kit. This is a kit I put together. By putting it together I know what each of the components are, and what their intended use is. This is what works for me with my kit. You need to do what works for you for your kit. If you are able to buy a high dollar top of the line pre-made kit, that's great. Rock it and enjoy using it. Not everyone can afford top of the line gear. There are budget items out there that work very well (even at Walmart). Also, believe it or not, there are a lot of people out there that will buy something pre-made and put it on the shelf and never use it and think "I'm good for when the need to use it comes up". That can be a very dangerous way of thinking. You should familiarize yourself with the gear you have. You should know not only what gear you have on your person, but also how to use it. Murphy generally doesn't wait around for you to read instruction manuals. I'm just giving options, not saying that anything I carry is better or worse than anyone else out there carries. We all should carry what we have confidence in and what works for us. Thanks for watching my video and for your input.
I'll take what you made over some off the shelf bag. What you assembled shows thought and pre-planning.
If you learn something, whether from a mistake or insight, it will be in your bag next time. That is part of the fun. Now his way? If something is not right? Return it to Cabelas and demand a full refund:) That is, if you are able to:(
how did you take offf the handle without breaking it ?
Hi, I've emailed you about making me a shoulder strap for my condor h2o pouch. Did you get it? Emailed you yesterday. Thanks
Shane
Does Tom Spearman sell his altoid kits?
just built a kit out of this pouch today do you make the shoulder straps yourself I'd love one just like it
I do make these. They are $20.00 + shipping. If you would like to order one, you can email me at 550LBSCord@gmail.com with your information and I will get one made up for you. Thank you.
mine came with a shoulder strap.
Would a 200 Round Saw Pouch fit
Hey Brotha where did you get those Clips that you attach your paracord to your condor pouch are they a certain type ?????
Plumpy E They are 1" J Hooks. You can google them to find various suppliers, or check eBay.
The 2 side pouches.........particularly the large one. What is the condor designation for it please.
+Mickey Authement Neither of the side pouches are Condor, they are both military surplus, but the Condor MA2: Ammo Pouch is probably closest in size to the larger one and the Condor MA9: Radio Pouch closest to the smaller one.
Thanks........actually have a similar set up but have the 5x7 tarp in the front pocket of the bottle bag. Like the idea of the side pouches.
could you PLEASE tell me where you got the molle pouches from???
The ones shown in the video came from my local military surplus store, but there are tons available for sale on e-Bay, Amazon, etc.
Is your water bottle double walled?
Single walled.
None of your stuff is used. How do you know it works and that its right for you?
When this video was made (two years ago) the only thing that had not been "used" at the time was the new backpacker model of the stainless steel water bottle had never been placed in a fire to boil liquids. It had been used as a container for holding liquids (which is the original purpose). I had not yet boiled anything in this particular container, but I had done so in others that I owned prior to the backpacker model, so I knew that it would work. Everything else in the kit had seen use at the time this video was made and has been used extensively since, so I know that it works, and that it is right for me. The kit has seen some tweaking in the last two years since this video was first made. There have been a few suggestions from viewer comments that I have put into practice since then on my kit, such as putting the bottle, stove,and Stanley cook kit in a stuff sack to make them easier to remove from the bottle holder bag. Plus it gives you an extra container for gathering edibles, fire tinder, etc. Thanks for watching!
Yeah...none of the stuff looks like its been anywhere near a heat source... just sayin like
VaiSatchie I've used the the exact or similar items in his kit and they work very well.
My cook kits has been used for years and they all look brand new. I use propane & alcohol stoves and make sure I dry them well before I store them.
Before I even watch this whole video. I'm probably going to like the video itself. But the ACU digital cam. I have no idea why anybody would ever intentionally pick that camo. Makes no sense. I've dyed my old uniforms, and I'll spray paint the rest
I agree. I hate camo colored stuff. I picked the slate colored pouch.
Hi Matt great video of your brew/cook kit built one similar myself, I was wondering if you would be interested in making a strap like yours for me and ill pay you for it? I have no idea how to braid the Paracord and even if I did I couldn't see well enough to do so. if you are able or interested in doing so, I can make payment by paypal or netspend whichever is most convenient , let me know, thank you... Urb
I sure can. Send me an email to 550LBSCord@gmail.com and we will work out the particulars on colors, etc. They are $20.00 + S&H.
Matt, you have built a realistic, tailored kit that has some awesome features! If you're looking for genuine strike anywhere matches, check out our website: www.charliemikesolutions.net Again, excellent job on a great kit!
Nice kit! Good stuff! Love your strap!
