What I really appreciated is that you focused on the project during your video and not endless talking. You guys really worked great as a team. So good to see. No arguments, no fussing, just harmonious working! Loved it. My husband was really impressed. He liked the fishing episode too, as he's a lover of all outdoor stuff. Started when he was about 10 in the woods of Texas and is now 77. Can't do things like he use to, but we sure enjoyed watching you two! Thank you for posting your accomplishments. )

    Hey, thanks for the tips! I wanted to say, remember to not store your batteries inside your headlamp. Petzl warns you against it before a purchase of any headlamp, and it might kill your headlamp leading to more serious drawbacks than having to change a battery. Instead you can keep them separately in its own pouch or case and load a battery before the sun is sets.

    Just as a heads up, one of these tips could be risky. It's the one regarding flipping the battery in your head lamp. If the lamp doesn't have current protection it could ruin your device or theoretically (unlikely) start a surprise fire.
    It's fairly standard to put a diode to prevent current in the wrong direction, but cheaper/Chinese knockoffs may skimp. You may be able to get away with it just due to how leds function however.

    LOVE your opening monolog, completely agree that we have lost our way and need to get back to basics. I grew up in the country and spent the majority of my time in the trees, working with my hands, had a huge garden, pigs, chickens, cows, etc and didn't go to the store until I was 8 I think, we didn't need to, we had a milking cow and all the eggs we could ever eat. Anyway, I know the country folk and heartland people are very wise in this way of life, I hope our city brethren can learn these skills as well. When they pour of the cities looking for food and find a bunch of country people living off the land, they will need to learn quick, as there will NOT be any convivence stores selling cheap processed food, time to get down to business!

    Zowie. Time well spent, viewing this. Good, usable stuff --- all well within the skill range of the rank amateur, like me. Too often, this type of video begins with something like, "To build your bushcraft particle accelelrator, first gather some birch bark and some stronium 90, then..." Nice work. I'll be watching for more of your videos.

    Inside the house you could drape off an area with tarps to make a smaller space.Have you ever noticed old fashioned homes? They had doors to close off the kitchen, living room/parlor, and second floor. I asked why once, it was to close rooms up in bitter cold months to keep heat in one section which was normally the kitchen.

    Bushcraft question for you: Do you bring a knife sharpening system with you when out? I just feel all the knife work you do would dull it quickly and you wouuld need to sharpen your blade while out. Just wondering.

    A note about your section on root cordage, at 8:11... It looks like you've seen how other people make twisted cordage, but you missed an important detail. you need to twist the individual strands one way, then wrap the strands together *the opposite way*. This binds the cord together naturally, the twists balance each other out. The video shows you twisting the individual strands and also wrapping them, but both in the same direction, which won't produce a very good cordage.

  • @alanthomson97
    @alanthomson97 4 года назад +29

    I noticed you used duck tape for a flame. I've never done this, but i often carry bicycle tubing and use small cuttings for burning as it gives a very hot flame. Also the tubing can be used for a wide variety of uses, such as a sling, melting and using for patching holes in boots and such. Also used for belt, repairing a snapt Shoulder strap, cordage, trapping, making crossbow , and a wide range of other uses.
    Thanks for sharing your ideas and skills.
