Good job. I would recommend carving the hole for the needle eye earlier and then sanding the needle down to fit the eye. I would think it would be easier without risking breaking the edge of the eye wall
I wonder if you could make a fire piston with this plant. Maybe if you wrap the length of the tube with string really tight so it doesn't split. You would just have to find a way to make a seal.
These are bones that have been lying on the forest ground for a long time, there aren't any organic remains left on them. Regardless, I scrubbed them and gave them a spritz or two of desinfectant before starting to work on them, just to be sure. BUT: If you want to try this yourself with found bones, please check first if you live in an area affected by CWD (chronic wasting disease). This is a scary prion disease (similar to Creuzfeld-Jacob or BSE) that might be transmissible to humans, even through remains of long dead animals.
You’ve gone so far your projects look amazing, I would buy that needle container for like $10 if I saw it honestly. Also, what does that mark symbolize if anything?
My channel logo is the combination of my runic initials. No special meaning, I just like how it looks and that it is easy to scratch into things (which is what runes were designed for).
It depends. At that time, bone was a very scarce resource for me (I only work with materials that I have gathered myself). Now that I have a decent collection, I could make such containers out of bone. Nevertheless, elderberry works very well and grows abundantly here, so I probably still would choose to do it this way and reserve the bones for tools that need its specific properties.
@@MakeItPrimitive But to gather the bones is not the only way to get them. You buy a whole animal - for example a lamb or a goat - chop it, put into the deep freezer, and eat it nose-to-tail! And then you'll have not only the delicious meat but all the bones of that animal, too...
FINALLY a channel that does it with hand tools rather than yet another person with a dremel. Very useful for a reenactor like myself 😊
That container is really nice, and the way the cap just clicks in is very satisfying
this channel is going to blow up some day, just you wait and see
Great Job love this Channel my first time here I've Subscribed 👍🤣👋 I can't wait for the next video 👍🤣

Needles fine, but nettle scares me. Nicely done.
This is very pretty! I like it a lot
Beautiful, beautiful work.
The container could double as a spool, though the image would most likely be covered.
Amazing work, absolutely love it. Amazing skills as well.
Very cool!

Now you have to demonstrate the needles usage
May I refer you to my latest upload? ;-)

Muy bonito trabajo, y una buena idea para mis próximos trabajos.
thanks for sharing your knowledge
brother 🙏😇 Nature knowledge should be the only one we seek 💜
Very satisfying video to watch!
You should try making some fabric from the nettles
Japanese Honeysuckle also has hollow pithey branches fyi.
Sustainable and badass! :)
Cut the nettles. Wait 36 hours. No more stinging when you process it.
Beautiful tools. Do you clean the bones before working on them, after working on them... Or never?😂😂

$10?? That's a handmade item, put together by somebody with amazing skill. It ain't no Walmart special LOL
10$???
I honestly can't believe some people🤦
Beautiful, thanks! But I have the opinion it would be better to make the container also from bone...

Wow this is amazing! Do you sell your needle containers?
What exactly were you using to fashion the eye of the needles, and what should one be cautious of when doing that?
No special technique, just a bit of scraping from both sides with a pointy shard of chert rock.
@@MakeItPrimitive thank you.
🎉🙏💯⚘
