Thank you, my pleasure DrCReich. Hope it works out for you👍🏻

Thnx. The fix still holds several years later, even though it is not often i use the jacket anymore. Yeah for the price it should be a looong seam guarantee🙂 Great shell on these jacket so hopefully the seam has gotten better? Have you talked to Arc about the baffle?

@@bushtweak747 yes. They gave a full credit of MSRP. I bought it when they had the annual 20 percent off 1 full price item so I made out good😂.

@@pittwm Congratz on good deal and great customer service from Arcteryx👍🏻

Thanks mate, appreciate the kind comment. Nitrate the wick, cool, must look into that👍🏻 Always nice to learn new hacks. Have a great day. ATB Ben.

@@bushtweak747 Hi Ben, potassium nitrate is available here in Australia as stump remover I use it to nitrate all manner of tinders and I have many videos of nitrated tinders on my channel.

@@waveman0 Thnx, then i have some videos to watch later on👏🏻 Great stuff. Subbed👍🏻 Have you been lookin into friction fires? Not the traditional spindle and board but other ways with maybe bigger surface.

@@bushtweak747 I suck at friction fires and do not dabble in them, my focus is percussion fire making, and flint and steel is my passion. I probably have 800 videos dedicated to flint and steel.

@@waveman0 Hehe friction fires is a hassle, thats for sure. How accessible is flint in your region? I like ferrorods but should absolutely practice more on flint and stone.

Sorta

@@henryorr5743 Yes I shoulda qualified that statement, "as long as you haven't trashed it"

@@AddyAshton there is also a little bit of an age limit. I took in my 15 year old beta lt yesterday to have the seams around all the elastic repaired as the glue had begun to peel. They said that because they may not be able to repair it to their standards they would not work on it at all. They did offer me a big discount code tho so that’s cool ig

Youre welcome. Have a nice day and good luck with the jacket.

Thank you for the kind words. Unsure about other glue types. But as long as the glue is somewhat flexible it should be good👍🏻

@@bushtweak747 Thank you for taking the time to reply! I will try and share the result with you too :)

I’m not sure if I agree…there’s a reason the manufacturer uses glues. Im been asking my tech clothing seamstress about his fixing with glues but he doesn’t want to take on the challenge.

making needle holes in the gore-tex membrane would be an issue.

I disagree. I have the same issue on my jacket. I have tried to sew it back together, but it doesn't last. This is a great solution that he as posted.

Thank you! I’ll look into the brands for sealant and adhesive. Gorilla glue is good, but the fix held for a year before i had to fix it again. The pro is its cheap and quick. The cons: not as flexible and durable. Good tips about the sleeve too. Thanks for the feedback and good tips🙂

Hi. Sry for late reply. Work work:) I bought a «seam sealing tape for waterprofing fabrics» Bought a 20 meter roll on amazon at the time. Probably find it on other platforms as well. I think it cost me around 3 US dollar. For glue i used gorilla glue. I have no temperature display but i have it on 75% of max heat. Thank you for viewing the video.

Thank you for taking the time to comment. Good luck and have a nice day🙂

Absolutely a very cool item to bring in the firekit. I like it and will practice more with it. There are so many great tinders in the outdoors i want to learn to master. Thank you Boomer for watching and your feedback. Hope all is well in this pandemic times👍🏻

Thank you, nice of you to take the time to comment👍🏻

@@bushtweak747 The pleasure is all mine my friend!

Thank you. Planning for a lot more videos by the end of the year🎉 I use a Sony A6400 with a sigma 16mm f/1,4. and gopro 8 black inside the tent🙂

Great and sturdy cotton tent. Condensation is no issue as long as you have a heating source. I have never tried a cotton tent without a stove or primus for more than a day. If they are not waterproofed before use it gets heavy😂 There are only upsides with cotton tent except one big thing, WEIGHT.. That’s why i like this kind of lavvu, it is small, easy to heat and breathes well. Yeah carbon m is a sneaky one. From that experience i learned to always use a carbon m detector and ventilate a lot more. Have used the stove after removing the spark arrestor and no problems. Sleeping with the stove on is also a no go in my book.

Hugh Cecil Seam «seam sealing tape for waterproofing PU fabrics». Bought a roll with 20 meters on amazon for around 3 dollars at the time. Thanks for watching

Kathys Outdoor Adventures Thanks alot. I will when i get the time( or make the time🙂) Atb.

Kathys Outdoor Adventures Thank you. Very kind words!

Ritera Racoon Outdoor Thank you so much. Always fun to help eachother out with quick fixes. All the best to you Marco and Racoon. Hope to see more of the great German forest in the future.

Super Dave Hi Dave and thank you for the sub, appreciate it alot👍🏻 I bought it unseen 6 or 7 years ago. At that time i figured it would fit my polish lavvu and my bigger «Helsport Finnmark» lavvu i had at the time. I planned on having a system i could carry around all year in my backpack. I see now that my alaskan jr is best for wintertime use when i can use a sled because of the weight. Last trip with camera gear, tent, alaskan jr, food, water and camping gear the total weight got up to 75-80 pounds. Will be posting a new video with some small modifications to the stove in the next few days:) The trekker i believe is a bit lighter than the alaskan jr? That would be a good thing if you are planning on carrying it for distances and for room inside the tent.

Folk Raven-Bear Thank you! Was looking into a trekker for my bigger nylon lavvu, but new import taxes in our country has put a lid on that for now😂

@@bushtweak747 that sucks. So far I have only used the stove once and not inside the lavuu but even just sitting outside it gave off a good deal of heat

It will not fail you in a lavvu, thats for sure. I’ve made som modifications to my stove which will be featured in the upcoming video. Just waiting for some time off to get filming😂 Let me know how your stove fares and please post a video if you are going camping. Always nice to share our experiences🎉 Atb.

Daniel Charbonneau Thanks alot for your kind words. Appreciate your comments, and toubtsking the time to watch. Glad you liked it. I’ll keep em coming🙂. How is winter up in Canada? We are experiencing record high temperatures with zero snow.

@@bushtweak747 In Northern Ontario we are experiencing warmer then normal weather, temp so far the average has been maybe -12c to -15c at night and on some days we get temps of +4c to -20c in a 24 hour period, we should be getting a average temp of -15c to -25c daily. It's crazy weather out here. I think the cold will hit us hard in February. As for snow fall where I'm at it's low for this time of year, no real snow storms yet. On the ground at this time is about 50cm which is very low for us for mid January. I'm not complaining! Lets not wake up the Winter Gods. LOL.

@@danielcharbonneau222 -12c to -15c at night sounds perfect for camping:) -25c would be fun to test hot tenting in the lavvu:) 50 cm is low? Wow, what is alot then?:) How much is the most snow you've experienced? I too hope february will be better. Hehe i understand you are happy with the amount of snow as is. Here we can start moving the lawn if the temperature rise keeps up:)

Puskwaska Outdoors Thnx for your comment! I have heard that about the spark arrestors from Knico🙂 We have no need for it by law in snow rich winter atleast. Think i will cut away the spark arrestor plate on the top hat to begin with. Must definetively look into the stack robber for fall use. I think it will be to much for this tent as is. Will have to do another run at it🙂 When i get my size three (which i plan to modify) i hope that it will be a better fit. Been wanting to get my hands on a Snowtrekker for a while but have to wait if i want to stay married😂

I'll try that, why not start with a simple solution:) Thx for the tip! Btw great comparison video you made on the lavvu sizes in march!

john kelenfoldi Thank you John. I sure will join your group. Thx for watching!

@@bushtweak747 your most welcome

Cooking with Sonny Thanks Sonny, i’ll try make use of some of your great cooking tips on my next hot tenting.

801 Outdoors Thank you. Good times in the outdoors:)

Thanks alot! Hope to see you in one of your cars out in nature, would be cool! The fire straw is excellent, will prevent many burned eyebrows;) I use a Mora bushcraft black for now, its a workhorse:) Tuckamore S.O.B looks very nice, one day ill look into a custom knife. Yeah the lighter is a good addition to a fire kit.

Coach Ron Lyons Thank you for your kind comment👍🏻

Everything Church Pro Thank you!

Thanks Odd! Its a cool addition to a fire kit. That's a excellent idea to save resources. It would be even more efficient to transfer the ember to a piece of chaga. The cotton rope is not nearly as dense as chaga and burns much faster.
