I made my wind screens from aluminum foil starting with my old Bluet S200 back in 1970. Recently I’ve made wind screens for my Fancy Feast stove cook kits from a Fosters beer can.
I'm a simple man. I see a new video from Shug and I click Thumbs Up
I saved a couple of alum vacuum seals from the top of the big plastic coffee cans to use as ground barriers. Work nice. Pretty thick and a good size.
Thanks for another great video shug, I always look forward to your tips and trick, I'm a O/O truck driver so I'm always testing gear and tips for when I go home to go backpacking, look forward to the next video and stay safe with everything going on over your way
Of courese I already know about wind screens...but this video was absolutely a Joy to watch...BRAVO! ManLand121 does three flips and only makes "one" half a flip actually successful...lol.
Hi Shug. I find joining three tall beer cans works well. A double fold gives a permanent joint. And the nice thing is an alcohol windshield for an alcohol stove. 😉😉
Righto!
Same here.
I'll tell ya right now, the first thing when you got the new MAD magazine was go to the back page, and make the two folds in the picture with the satirical commentary. After that, I went straight to Spy vs Spy.
There is something hypnotic about you demonstrating fabrication techniques for your DIY equipment. It's like Video Valium, and I mean that in a good way. Dang Mr. Shug, you're a one man Dopamine agonist. Thanks for the mellow.
I'd forgotten all about that! Haha! That's exactly the same order I went as well. Thanks for reminding me!
I always liked Jack Davis and Mort Druckers art the best.
@@shugemery They were great. I liked Jaffee too.
@@fredthorne9692 Hi, Fred. I had a garage sale MAD. The cover was Alfred standing in New York with the Twinn Towers in the background with an airplane about to hit them. ...?...
I've got the one that has Anthony Perkins in the comments section. He had mailed them; expressing his feelings on their spoof of Psycho. He included a picture of himself, stabbing the end of a kitchen knife through Alfred's head on the magazine.
Glad to see you are able to keep going. I just had my kidney yanked out, so I'm out till at least September. Guess I will be hammocking vicariously through you this season. All the best to you and yours
Love your videos. Starting watching them several years ago after a heart procedure. recently I blew my knew out and started binge watching some of the older videos. it has been a much needed laugh during this year that no one will forget. I hope your retirement goes good. stay safe, stay healty, stay busy.
Whooooo Buddy)))) Take care the knee.
My windscreen is made from the bottom of one of those disposable casserole pans. It has a weight/ thickness that seems similar to the one Shug uses normally. I didn't punch holes though, maybe i should...
Edit: I typed this comment during the video before seeing he suggested this method... 10/10 do recommend!
Sitting in the back yard in my new Eldorado watching this reminded me my fancy feast needs a new windscreen (too many holes with the first attempt). Thanks!
Wish I had your cook pot lol I want it to display it like art - it’s got so much character to it.
Thanks for another superb camping how-to video. In the past, I have made quite a few windscreens for Fancee Feest-style alcohol stoves by repurposing inexpensive 4” diameter metal duct coupler, about $4 from Lowe’s or a similar home store. I just drill out the rivets that hold it together at the seam and then Dremel down any sharp/rough edges or cover them with metal foil tape (the lazy man’s option!). They’re extremely durable, but one weighs under 35 grams (1.24 oz) and fits with room to spare in an IMUSA 12cm cup (or it can slide between a GSI-style nesting cup and the bottom of one of the popular Stanley Adventure Cooksets). Best regards!
Whooooo Buddy))))
Nice share Shug. Appreciate it. Cool and simple enough. 🤙🏼
Thanks for this! You got me thinking about my next trip, I’m going to try making one from the dollar store cooking tins. Will report back here👍🏻
Leap Year I tried it, and it burnt up. The $10 titanium toaks is worth it.
While watching, I was excited to comment “You could also use a roasting pan!” But you hit it at the end. You covered it all, Shug! I like the pan because like you said, if it gets a little messed up. You can roll it back out and it puts the curl right back in.
Righto!
I used the foil pans you get in the baking aisle in your grocery store... Makes a really good wind screen
+1
Me too.
Same
I choose products by "How can I use this package? ". I get a "free" pie with my new aluminum pot cover.
I made one out of an aluminum tray from the dollar store. Plenty left for another one, and it is heavier duty than plain aluminum foil.
Great instructional video. Thanks for the info Shug!
Gotta have 'em!
I like your make your own videos every time!
I collect MSR stoves so I have a bunch of windscreens. Paperclips work great to close them. In the field I smooth out windscreens on a smooth barked sapling like a birch. Too many campers ignore the screens, but they help so much! Great tips!
Yessir.
MacGyver comment 👍I carry a paperclip on my baccy pouch becauae they're bloody handy things :-)
greeting from Hickory NC! luv your videos shug. they have made me a better hammock camper.
Whooooo Buddy))))
Great tutorial Shug! Thanks!
Great How To Shug... Thanks for sharring... Dennis
Hey Sean, I watch your videos because i enjoy hearing your thoughts and think you're quite the character. I'm mentioning this because I don't want you worried about topics for videos. Anything that you put up, I will undobtedly watch. Cant tell you how many times I watch your Souix Hustler series. Whooo Buddy!
Thanks. I'll put stuff out when I have something to report.
What a wonderful video. Thank you, sir. You're a great teacher.
Thank you kindly! Whooooo Buddy))))
When Shug of the third person takes the time to weigh his windscreens in metric and imperial 😍👍
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
@Finnegan Edwin Instablaster =)
@Devon Cyrus thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Devon Cyrus It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D
@Finnegan Edwin Happy to help =)
I made mine from some carbon sheet sold to line ovens and BBQ, it's even lighter and doesn't kink. Rolls up nicely too. Good job
Seen those. Good stuff.
My Trusted RUclipsr.
I give thumb up as soon as I start page load. ;)
Great advice, funny timing on this video release as I just got back in from a quick 1 nighter today and I forgot my alcohol stove's windscreen 😆 Of course the wind was rolling a bit, good times!
Whooooo Buddy))))
Hurray,! Shug is keeping us company
that's a mighty fine round stob. + bobblehead Dale...superior!
Nice... could also get some of that foil adhesive tape for ducting, and tape your folds down tight... giving just that much more structure to the project. A feller should have a roll of that on hand anyhow... for when he's making cozies from Reflectix. Good stuff, Kemosabe!!
I do but it is really not needed. Also I started using Gorilla Tape on my cozies as it seems to hold up better than the foil tape over time.
@@shugemery What did we do without Gorilla Tape? Well... I guess we were perfectly happy with Cotton Duck canvas, Coleman Stoves, Cast Iron (Oh, I still love my CI), and all the rest of the old gear. The new stuff is just so nice.
14:30 - in anticipation of seeing that SV-11 video...can’t wait! I enjoy all your videos but especially like you control line videos.
Just flew the first time all year this past Saturday. Did not film much. But I will.
I found your channel through a couple of recommendations about two weeks ago. You have sold me on hammock camping. Already purchased a Ridgerunner and a Thunderfly. Time to throw my tent in the closet. It may add 1 1/2 lbs to my lightweight backpack setup, I think it's worth it to get a good nights rest.
Just don't camp in Nebraska! I'm so poor, my yard has no trees. WAaaa!
I had always loved having a tent, but never really got a good nights sleep. After one night in a hammock, I haven't been a tent since. You now have the hammock (bug). There are so many options that will allow you to get your weight down as well.
That's some good camera work there, sir. The close in shots and the slow zoom are really well done.
Whooooo Buddy))))
Excellent way to do a DIY windscreen. And it is actually lighter than the rest of the others
Cheap and easy......
Excellent video 👍
Thank you very much!
Reynolds makes a "Pitmaster's Choice" foil that I used. It's extra sturdy and was perfect for this project.
Good stuff....Sometimes my store has heavy duty and sometime not.
Wow it’s been three months since my last dose of Shug.
No wonder I’ve been feeling under the weather.
Whooooobuddy, that looks like it’ll make a purrrrrty boil.
Time for a catch up Shug binge watching evening.
Welcome back and Whoooooo Buddy)))))
Thanks Shug great tutorial and congrats on retirement ,4 yrs and a few wakeups till mine
Thank you.
Thanks Shug! I appreciate ya! Whooo buddy
I am Early for a change :) Nice cook Kit. Deer Fight !
Thanks Shug I just made my first Fancy Feast stove.
Right👍🏻
Thanks Shug! Always thought there was something wrong w me for refusing to pay more than whatever foil I have around the house. Now I know I am not alone
Roghto.
Thanks for the tutorial!
Y'elcome.
Burnishing with a socket can work too. You wrangle a right handed scissors pretty well 🤠
Excellent!
The Man! The Myth! The Legend!
Brilliant Video, Thank you :)
Thankee. Those screens are real important for best results.
I made one out of the lid of a large commercial zie foil pan and some aluminum foil tape, have used it with my pocket gas stove, works pretty well
Righto.
I make mine out of 8x3 1/2" pieces of 22 gauge sheet metal with interlocking tabs so it's adjustable to use with all of my stoves. I can add or remove pannels as needed and they all stack up and go into a pouch I mad from some waxed canvas I had laying around.
Good stuff. Thankee.....
Hillbilly! Good stuff, Shug! Hope you & Meg are well. Whooo buddy.
Whooo Buddy ! From Asheville NC.
I LOVE Asheville!!!! Whooooo Buddy))))
I love my windscreen from QiWiz.net! I had a diy tin foil one for a while but QiWiz's titanium screen replaced that. Keep make videos Shug, love every one of them!
He does make nice stuff....I had a looky see and added his link
Glue a couple tiny neo magnets on the furthest ends (the corners) and you can keep 'er buttoned up like a tin can sleeve on those extra windy days!
Two beer cans make a really good wind screen. The foil MSR use is really good. Aluminium flashing is a good material too.
I like the MSR foil best.
I've found the felt one tinny provides with his stoves work pretty well
For sure. He has the carbon fiber felt ones if i recall.
Merci mon ami Shug !
Thank you Shug!
Y'elcome.
Thanks for the info shug. I like the different videos you've been doing lately. Anything else craftable you could show us how to make?
Thanks. I just like to show easy stuff.
I have a maple fire windscreen I got off of Amazon years ago it works really great bad thing is they don’t make them no more
Thanks, great DIY, always fun watching your videos, I have a 1/2 @$$ windscreen and probably could make a nicer one.
As long as it does the job.
I have to be honest.. more than a few times I forgot to bring a wind screen and ended up really needing one. lol Foolish of me.
A roasting pan is a slick idea since you could get one at the dollar stone for cheap.
Thanks for the video
Y'elcome.
A bobby pin works perfectly if you want to keep the two ends together. Thanks Shug!
Righto.
use a tuna can lid, cut it with a siding cutting can opener and it's a lot stiffer and will last pretty much forever. They also make good emergency tealight or votive candle holders for your BLACKOUT kit. And if your lucky enough to find the right size cans the cut off lids can make good DIY cup and pots lids ;-)
Righto~~
Good tips, Shugy woo.
Thank you sir for the info
Whooooo Buddy))))
Thanks Shug!
Whooooo Buddy))))
@14:29 Yr such a tease! Not seen you fly in awhile! 😁
Just flew the first time all year this past Saturday. Did not film much. But I will.
Nice one . Would have guessed the titanium would be lighter , and be wrong . Stay safe up there . .. gubs
It was a bit longer though.
Great! Thanks!
Righto~~~
I actually had the super thin Toaks roll up windscreen, measured it out and used a straight edge to cut it down to be just right. Fits in my pot, with my fancy feast stove and alcohol bottle. Love it. Now if I could just find a better place for my long handle Toaks spoon.
Fastcircuit same, the tinfoil windscreens kept melting/burning on me.
Back them off the flame a bit.
I always put my spoon in my mesh back pocket of my OHM.
@@shugemery Yeah, I've been putting mine in the top of my Foxlite 🦊 ditty bag, I keep all sorts of loose stuff in there. It's just a bit out the way to get too, but that's ok. Might give the mesh pocket a try, but I sort of feel like I may loose it out of there in my Granite Gear Crown X
@@shugemery Have you ever messed with any of those Waymark packs? Sort of thinking about having a frameless pack for single overnights. But that also means waiting even longer my Amok, or any other new hammocks, I do prefer collecting new hammocks.......
Hey shug love all your videos I've been doing a lot of research on diy alcohol stoves recently and was wondering if you have any experience with the Zen alcohol stove?
I have tried about all alcohol stoves in my experimenting phase. Found the Fancee Feast and never looked back. Easy to DIY one. Search how here on You Tube.
www.woodgaz-stove.com/fancee-feest.php
Whooo Buddy! 👍
Righto.
Shug never fails to deliver
Using a tool for burnishing those folds and edges is a key tip for those like me who are disallowed from using the heavy-duty tin foil in the house unsupervised, since evidently I can't even look at a roll without slicing the crap out of myself, lol.
Thanks, Shug. So SO many American RUclipsrs only deal in ounces, yards and other somewhat arbitrary measurements.
We usually just do the ones we go by here but I have learned to add grams as well to try and relate to all Nations. Do you deal with feet or centimeters?
I hope I didn’t sound tetchy or that my comment seemed trite.
I grew up in the 70’s in the UK, so I was accustomed to both metric and imperial - we learned metric in school but bought pounds, ounces and pints of food in the shops. But 20 years of travelling the world has narrowed me down to meters, millimeters and litres.
I just wanted to say thank you for making the effort to give both measurements; it’s only the USA, Liberia and Myanmar that still use imperial (about 5% of the world’s population).
Mind you, I see some European RUclipsrs also giving the imperial measurements for our American cousins.
So, thanks to ALL who make the effort, and go that extra mile/kilometer/furlong/rod to give help us all understand.
Thanks Shug.
Y'elcome.
What do you think about making some stakes out of some thin 1/16" wire and staking the windscreen through those holes? I reckon three should be more than enough
You certainly could.
you could use instead a over bottom protector or whatever its called. its thicker and about 1$ at a dollar-store. edit: alright i saw your oven turkey pan thing. its the same.
thank you again for the video!
Love this video, we watched the entire thing, and created a drinking game every time Shug says "burnish".
I love saying burnish, mercantile and extremity.
Shug, thanks to your idea on the MSR windscreen, I figured out they sell a 10' roll of that same thick aluminum for $10 on Amazon.
It's listed under: "St. Louis Crafts 36 Gauge Aluminum Metal Foil Roll, 12 Inches x 10 Feet"
*My floppy Reynolds Wrap windscreens shall be no more!*
Whooooo Buddy)))))
I followed your instructions, and then laid down a layer of HVAC tape on the fold side to make it a little more durable. I’m usually more concerned with breaking gear than weight, but that’s me,
I use Gorilla tape now. Last longer.
Cheers shug
...was waiting for one of the plane's to take off.. memories
Was wondering if you were going to finally get around to some ukie. Summer's here.....wooo buddy
Just flew the first time all year this past Saturday. Did not film much. But I will.
Notice your work? SHUG! I've been noticing your work for over 5 years now. I've made mine out of foil oven liners.
My sewing ain't pretty but it holds. Thankee.
👍👍🇧🇷 Parabéns Ótimo
Obrigado.
Is there a Maple King version? Maybe a nice embossed maple leaf....?
There could be. That would be nice.
I caught the control line, teaser :)
Just flew the first time all year this past Saturday. Did not film much. But I will.
once again Zone 7 is on the radar! ... and that aluminum foil will sharpen those old scissors!
Righto~~
Shug, wanted to Email but where? Anyway, do you have a hammock recommendation for a permanent switch from a bed (one that does not break the bank)? Also, do you find the Dutchware Dbl layer to be effective, over just having under quilt, i was thunking that i could use alternative in that DBL pocket?
I don't sleep full time so hard to say. Don't think a double layer will add a ton of warmth. But may work. Depends on your personal sleeping temps I reckon.
I use my gasifier stove as a windshield for the stove, a man likes options :-D
Righto~
thanks
Y'elcome Michael~~
remember that old toy "Sit & Spin", could you tie an RC to the seat of one of those that was staked into the ground and have the plane lift off a ramp?
That I do not remember.
What do you think about Cardon Felt wind screens...Shug.?
P.S. Have you ever done Freezer Bag cooking, making up your own meals from grocery store dehydrated Foods Ramen noodles, just add water mashed potato flakes, or minute rice. . .then people add chicken or tuna fish in the foil packets... and some time chicken or beef jerky ...and a host of vegetables, dehydrated can now be found right in the grocery stores...maybe a instant gravy pack mixed in just Add boiling water Ziploc the freezer bag 10 minutes you have a meal personally I love freezer bag cooking two or three dollars for a meal then you subsidized it with some fresh items...
I did not care for the carbon wind screens. Funny but just did not like the look. No freezer bag as I never enjoyed eating out of a bag. My dear ol' Mom would have found it uncouth....haaaa. Prefer to eat out of my pot. Sturdy. Easier to spoon out in my opinion. I eat the same stuff that would be in a freezer bag but just out of a pot.
Why is it that the alcohol stove has a windscreen but your cars have a windshield?
From a simple English man trying to understand...
thanks for the years of great content and laughs.
You still want a little bit of air passing through for the fire
My understanding is a windscreen is semi-permeable and a windshield blocks all air movement.
Could be a windblock. Or a wind-diffuser.......hmmmmm
del yeah!
Whooooo Buddy))))
Not only does the scissors and the whole punch go through the foil but they both get sharpened by going through the foil. So if you ever find that your scissors or your hole punch or getting dull, just make a windscreen. : )
Good to know! Thankee.
