Me speaking
I have not spoken so much in my videos before.
My plan is to speak more. I feel I often need more info on some of the things I do in the video.
It is pretty hard beginning to do: I am use to get the words served, either through tv or reading. But finding the words myself is a lot harder, I very seldom speak English. Hopefully it will be better. It sucked when I edited, because I know what I am doing wrong. But I can’t redo it at this poing. Anyway hope what I say make sense.
I said the horse hove fungus thing, because I have called it horse shoe a lot of times. I couldn’t remember what I said, so I made that take to be sure. And sure enough; I said it wrong.
Long time since last video
I have had an eye operation where I was not allowed to lift anything for 3 weeks. (I don’t need glasses any more)
Musen had problems with a gland, and had to be kept at home, not doing anything for a week.
I was making a video where I built something, but someone destroyed it, before I was finished. …more on that later.
It has been storming and raining to much.
…I can’t find more excuses.

This video is quite possibly the most important❤ video on the internet. The beauty& irony of you making a fire from everything in the woods which if you have ever tried making a fire from a bow& spindle you know...much less MAKING THE BOW& SPINDLE. DV im so impressed. At the summer camp i worked at as a teen it was a challenge to light the campfire with one match. Ive joked about "one match" being a blessing and a curse until i made fire with a bow& spindle kit that was gifted to me@ an outdoor science school. It was difficult in the dry mtns is ca and ur in wet climate. Knowing the woods takes a lifetime. You are a Master..im blown away by this gift youve given the world. Epic.❤ then the irony lol of boiling water& having an instant meal. I love you dv. Keep up w ur infectious humor & brilliant editing. Mostly thankyou for being here❤ ftr ur English is fine& i enjoy hearing ur voice. These skills you shared are the best! Glad u& mousey girl healed up stronger great to see u both. Again 1000x thanks❤
I am an English teacher and I think your English is great. This video with real world information for all of us who live in wet climates is very nice, I'm gonna go outside and try it out. Again & again......
Thank you :) Wish you the best of luck. :)
Very nice to see another great video from you 👍🏻👍🏻..... can hardly wait for the next video
I'll be damned! You did it, Don. Your patience and deep knowledge of all things wooden were on display here. Thanks for a very relaxing and entertaining video tutorial.
Thanks David :)
hands down the best bow drill tutorial i have seen yet. i’m so glad you’re both okay!
hearing you speak is a treat, so please yes! give us more lad!
your english is far better than my danish, so no need to be embarrassed 💪🏽
Thanks :) ...it would make my life a lot easier if you all just learned danish. :D
@@DonVonGun indeed it would :-)
@@markv151 :D
you are a truly mountain man💪💪🌲🌲🪵🪵🔥🔥
I don't know why I prefer watching every video of yours, and never miss any of your newest videos. Your adventures always inspire me. You are a great person👍.. greetings from Indonesia.
Much appreciated :) Thanks
Thx a lot for putting in the video the 'coal age' time, I didn't know the dust takes so much time 😮 to coalesce and to form a nice and sturdy coal/ember
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! Thank you. I've been watching you from the beginning, and it's great for the people that are new to bushcraft to see this. It's also a good refresher for an old dog like me! Ha! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐! Tak skal du have. Jeg har set dig fra begyndelsen, og det er fantastisk for folk, der er nye til bushcraft, at se dette. Det er også en god genopfriskning for en gammel hund som mig! Ha!
Tak for dine altid flinke kommentarere Richard. :)
Don! So many details, informations, it's now impossible to miss fire starting with bow drill!
:) Thanks
You Old Buzzard, It's good to see you posting again! Cheers from Upstate, NY USA
Congratulations,Don,you are a fireman ! Very glad to see you again !
Thank you :)
That was just brilliant. Really, really impressive. I struggle to do it in perfect conditions so I really am impressed with your skills. Please keep the videos coming- such great therapy.
Thank you. :) I will try to make more videos this year.
Amazing tutorial. Thanks for putting your time to film this. Greetings from the woods in Sweden
Thank you :)
Reely glad to see you doing videoa again. Reely enjoy you watching you and especially this video. So nice to see someone who not overdramatic everything in there bushcraft vids. Simpel, informativt and clean. Keep doing What you do.
Håber på en dejlig weekend til dig fra en halv dansker i Sverige!
Tak Kristian :) Håber du kommer ud og bruger den fantastiske natur i Sverige?
Very impressive...Ray Mears could not have done it better...compliments
:D Im a fan of RM.
Wonderful video again🙂Musen looks like she was really enjoying the puddles. Watching your video makes me want to try, maybe after watching about a hundred times🤣. The fires sounded so nice and looks so beautiful. Thanks again for sharing.
Thank you Ann :) Musen loves water, no matter the temperature. :O Hope you will succeed. :)
Hello Mr. Soren. And greetings Musen boy. First of all, I would like to wish You good health. Keen vision is good.
The movie turned out great. There is a mood. Thanks Mr. Soren, for what You do. Beauty !
Thank you :)
Man that was a tough one. Very satisfying! Good to see you!
Thank you :)
Wow very impressive, great instruction and very skillful. A joy to watch as well, 🙏🏼
Thank you :)
Fantastic! The pinch of sand trick is something new to me, I gotta try it. As for your concerns with speaking, I see no issues. English is my only language and I followed you just fine. Keep blessing us with videos!
Thanks man :)
Excellent tutorial Søren your English narration was perfect and very commendable effort. I noticed something was different about you and....No glasses ! Happy for you and eye surgery went well. Good to see Effie (musen) enjoying herself and feeling better , no raw chicken today ? Maybe another collaboration with Rune and Morten this year ? Take care and all the best, until next time skål!
Thanks Mark. :) She gets raw chicken every day. My next dog will not. But she just turned 9 yr. And I can't get my self to take it away from her. I see them once in awhile, but Morten is a busy man, and Bertram prefers to work alone, which is also what makes the best videos, as you only have the video to concentrate about. But it can change. Morten and me often talk about what we could do. Lately cooking videos. But we have not written anything in the calendar yet. :) skål. :)
I can only imagine your three week recovery was much easier for you than having your girl down for a week. Glad your both up and going again. Cayden says hi. som mange har sagt, så er dit engelsk meget bedre end mit danske!
Thanks Antigone. :) Yes it sucked. Say hi to the champ from me. :)
Another great video 😊 and a great demonstration showing that the right amount of preparation and patience can turn the improbable into the achievable 👍
Thank you :)
@DonVonGun your very welcome I look forward to your next video 🙏
@@wildwaysbushcraftsurvivals5416 Thanks :) Hopefully I will have a new one up soon. :)
It was worth the wait You never disappoint! 🌻😊
Thanks Emi :)
@@DonVonGun 😉
Love that one! Wild that you did it all with stuff you made. Made my day to see a new vid up!
Thanks. Much appreciated :)
That's impressive! Well done sir. You are very skilled outdoorsman.
Thank you :)

You are the Best. Greetings from Germany

Nice work! You addressed the vitals of bow drill success. It is not an easy skill to develop.
Thank you :)
Great tutorial. Relaxed and got the job done. Hope there will be more soon.
Thanks. Yes, that is the plan. :)
Magnificent skill set you have Soren, bravo! If there is anyone on the planet that knows how to use a knife, hatchet and axe it's you. I've watched you for years now build, camp, fish, live and I'm always impressed by the quality of dedication you bring to the table. The bow drill fire was spot on, the implementation was text book perfect if there is such a thing. Musen looks happy and eager to be with you out in the wild, great companion. Thanks for another stellar video, well done and much appreciated. See you next time.
Thank you very much for your always kind words Terry :)
Thank you for sharing so .uch useful knowledge.... hats off to you sir ...
Thank you :)
@DonVonGun most welcome ...waving from the Blue Mountain in p.a
superb training video, thank you. it was many years ago that I last tried that and I remember it as being a fair bit of tough work. I see that I’ve remembered it more or less correctly. 😅👍🏼✌🏼🖖🏼
Thank you. I was getting sick that day, so the drilling was xtra hard for me. I was glad it worked first time. :)
Great film as always 👏
Thanks :)
Så vildt fedt at kikke på. Ha en god weekend ❤
Tak :) Godt forår
Maybe your best made video Don. Thank you :)
Thanks :)
excellent! and the lovely forest. thank-you.
Thanks Lucy :)
Great stuff! Too hard on yourself. Loved every moment. I’d love to be out there with you-talking or not:-).
Thanks Andrew :)
Very good perfect video DonVonGun excellent techniques thank you much success!!!
Thank you :)
New York just got hit with an earthquake...l don't care: DonVonGun video just came out! 😂
Haha!! Thanks Yankee :D
@@DonVonGun When I first started watching the video, my first thoughts were (as God is my Witness) that "This is reminiscent of 'The Taste of Spring (Woodcraft)'" and right on cue, in comes the same song at the end of this video from Woodcraft. 😊
Good job man! 👍👍
Wspaniale pozdrawiam serdecznie 💚🙌
Great video man.
Best fire meditation with Master Søren and cute Musen
Thanks :)
Wonderful to watch
Superb and thank you 👍🇬🇧
Extremely impressive
Nicely done!
Cool! Thanks! Going to try smth like that this summer with my kid. But with some improvement: going to use bearing instead of birch in the palm (sorry for my english)
You’re back💪💪
Når jeg ikke selv kan komme afsted, er dine videoer guld! Jeg kan næsten lugte våd mos og røg her i stuen.
Tak Lars :) Håber du kan komme afsted snart? :)
I think this is a great video Don. I can't wait to try this out.
grande Don
Impressive! Approximately how long did it take from you collected the wet grass until it caught fire? I think it would teach us a lot knowing that even a very skilled man like you, uses 2, 3, 4 or 6 hours in these wet conditions to build a fire and that patience is the key!
I think I used 3 hours without the filming. The rope took a good amount of time. If should make fire with bow drill, and I could use string, and with the same tools, I guess I could make it in 30 min. ...maybe I should try it in a video. ...I don't know, it might be boring in just one take? ...you followed me for 8 years. :O Thanks man :)
Outstanding, you are truly a master of the woods. Can I ask how long that took in real time not including the filming element as that no doubt adds time to the process. Great explanation along the way. Brilliant.
Thank you Martin :) The drilling is more more or less what you see in the video. Sometimes it takes a couple of try, depending on how dry the wood is. All of it; finding the materials, processing them etc.: 3 hours I guess, the string took the longest.
You made it look easy, pretty sure it’s not. 👍
@@martinoutdoors6941 Some times not. When I first learned it. It took me many trips before I got the first coal. The right materials is the key. :)
Du bare mega god😏
Tak Trunten. :)
You have a Silky saw, a hatchet and a knife but no lighter, why?
I hope you understand my question.
