£100 Amazon Prime Camping Challenge (Next Day Delivery Bushcraft Loadout)

- I do an amazon prime next day delivery camping challenge. I make a budget bushcraft loadout of £100 (roughly $120). I have to build a shelter, make a fire, cook food and camp out in the woods using just a few simple tools and camping items.

Thanks for making the video. Great video btw
@@Jaeger04 cheers!
@TAOutdoors good video but you can do it for alot less than that here's a challenge how about doing a 2 night camp with just stuff you find at home ie blanket kitchen knife lighter plastic sheeting or tarp. Poundshops sell alot of stuff it's all crap I've used it but for a one or 2 nighter it does the job also why not try a what I call minimal camp build a shelter say out of logs or rough it without
@@TAOutdoorshow tall r u and how big was the shelter around for a reference
its cheaper because its used for trailor cover
Would love to see an incremental increase in budget series, so the next one would be £150, to see how much difference the extra money makes
Totally agree! This would be a great series.
that's a solid idea !!!
Or, a series of trips that increase in length: 1 night, 3 nights, a week, 10 nights.
@@JoanneFong and the budget increases with the increase in time!
Yes that would be good :)
I find it funny that people think you need top quality gear to survive a night or 2 in the forest if you know what your doing you can survive with just a knife or axe and a bottle of water
You misspelled beer
The main reason people buy expensive stuff is because it tends to be of higher quality and thus lasts longer.
@@TubeMeisterJC so you’re saying that quality doesn’t make a difference? Hmm. Sound logic. That’s the stupidest thing I’ve seen today.
The problem is that if that equipment breaks, and you need it, you are out of luck even if it is a short trip.
@@TubeMeisterJC Quality DOES make a difference, but price and brand does not always determine quality.
I bring a sleeping bag to the office. I work as a lab manager, and sometimes, when I deal with nighttime breakdowns I don't go home. Instead I sleep in my office :)
Nice! Now I just need to find a bit of wood when I can build a little camp 🤔
i'm sure the neighbours won't mind... 😂
They're closer than you think
Wish I could
This video is the kind that I've been missing lately. Well done.
That paracord is amazing! It's so smart that each inner cord can be separated and used individually for different things
That was way too cool man. Hence proved that knowledge of bush crafting is more important than the cost of gear. While some gear is needed, knowing how to use it effectively is far more important than its value.
Your kind of people know about this stuff? Strange
Building a Cave. Alex Bushcraft 🤝
Great video, thanks. Since the tarp was so long, I think there would have been enough to start at the bottom as a ground cloth, under the wall then over the top. And still have enough for a front cover. Thanks again, John S.
I was think that too😆
I was going to ask why he didn't do that - surely it would help keep you warmer (and drier)?
You can start with budget equipment and, piece by piece, replace it with top-quality gear.
That’s how I started out! It’s the best way. Find out what works, and replace when necessary 👍🏻
@@TAOutdoors The advantage to good equipment is that it is far more reliable when you are out in the sticks and can't replace a piece of broken gear.
That's how most folks start out 🤷🏾♀️
@@jessicathompson236 Haven't noticed that. They buy cheap gear and replace it with more cheap gear.
Best way to learn.
Thats a fair bit of effort to do this, especially with that saw. Glad you show the leave no trace concept too. Very important. Good video mike
It's an interesting experiment and the result looks better than I expected, thanks to your outstanding skills.
one of those 5€ hardware store tarps was the rain cover in my setup for years. In the end it was hard to justify moving to something more expensive (and lighter!) since it had served me so well without issue.
No just no. There useless. Your either lying or never actually went camping in those years 😂
I'd love to see you do an overnighter with really cheap stuff, like aldi or poundland.
I bought a wood and metal saw from Aldi that cost me only 8 euros, it's actually good quality, I was surprised.
I got a head torch from Poundland for £1. 😃
I agree, because 100 pounds isn't cheap at all... 20 would be a good start. 👍
Awesome video. Not only is this good for beginners but a good lesson for my sons that they don't need to purchase expensive gear when they are starting out. Oh, nice camp.
Buy cheap buy twice
This is really fun. Nothing broke either, so the next trip is free.
i love the simplicity of your tarp shelter ... 👍 i think i have to build something similar in my garden to test... 🖐️
Good video. You should also do videos testing out tents. From cheap tents, to elaborate inflatable house tents haha I know you aren't the type of person to use tents but I feel there's a large portion of your viewers that do use them and would like to see you use them, test them, give your opinion on them. Idk just an idea. Easy videos lol
You could use the cordage to create a makeshift backpack. Tie off one corner of your pillow case, then string up to the opening and tie that off and then back down to the other corner to create shoulder straps. No cutting is needed. Therefore no waste of the cordage will be lost.
Great video - £100 of hear but grillions of skill, experience and confidence . Thanks for sharing the possible with us !
If you bought 100% cotton pillow cases 1 can work as your bandana. That was a great example of a budget kit. I wonder if getting a little less paracord and a small roll of bankline would leave more available cord
So about $200 should let you add the 1st aid kit, the torch, and maybe a hatchet. Or improve things like the knife or saw. How does it count if you have a backpack left from school, a yoga mat, and always carry a lighter anyway? We won't mention the Swiss Army knife.
about budget keeping:
there would be some items in your household
cutlery for example
whatever you have in house reduces cost and allows to buy more things you do not have.
(even in case you would only count items that any household might have...)
really good message and nice vid
but I think people need to understand they don't need to buy everything
they probably have a backpack lying around, matches, a lighter, an inflating mat and sleeping bag or blanket for sleep-overs and guests, a 2x3m tarp, jute twine and a pruning saw for the garden, the house's flashlight and candles for power outages...
they can use an empty instant coffee tin as a cook pot, and basic metal cutlery from the kitchen does the job just fine
all this stuff is dirt cheap at the local supermarket anyway, cheaper than amazon (especially the poly tarp : 10 quid ?!)
sure, a knife like this they probably don't own, and they might want to invest in proper footwear for outdoors, but aside from that, we really don't need that much
I’ve had that knife for a while. It’s a great knife that is the one I normally grab for more abusive things just because of how cheap it is. It hasn’t let me down however.
This is a crazy good example of "it's not the tools, but the skill". I love how you were able to do all this with so little money, and I think the everyday person can use this video as a reference and try it themselves.
hultafors is the best knife option regardless of budget
sk5 steel is a perfect outdoor steel, I recommend the heavy duty model
the way prices are in uk at mo its a decent vid, its a good time for hunting preowned gear
Yeah even this loadout was way more expensive than it should have been thanks to inflation. If this was 5 years ago I would have had a lot more money left over.
Cleanly done, well-enunciated and perfectly explained.
I also have that canteen and nesting cup, its good but the lid got cracked and broke, I now use a cork stopper from a Sherry bottle which works well. There are no replacement lids available.
I also have a Hultafors Chisel knife, which can batton through wood and is cheaper, but the wood boughs have to be no more than 6cm
Started watching your brilliant videos pre pandemic Mike,
Hope you are keeping well and all, you look leaner.
I have missed your channel it is great production, professional and enjoyable with your easy no fuss approach. really just brilliant.
You have helped and encouraged a lot of people with this budget episode. I sensed you have missed your quality items, bless!
Thanks and great to see and hear your presentation.
Continued success and your happiness
Important to check R-values! That sleep roll mat looks good for nothing, but the height of UK summer. Insulation is a priority when sleeping outside!
That canteen set looks interesting. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸
Interesting?
Hiya TA Outdoors Im doing same thing making Bag With lots of survival gear ini have watched all your 24hr video and me and my family going camping tmrw so "cheers"
Good video. One additional task you could have done was build a roycroft pack frame. Wrap everything in the tarp and strap it to frame. Just a thought and an additional bushcraft project.
Mike that was a great little little blog I can See you got talent for that. You could make a living doing that. How is the Woodland doing I want to see those Hazel and those new trees he planted that we spoke about.
..those videos became a lost art.., thank you!
This is a great video. I enjoyed watching you create the back wall for your tarp shelter. It made so much sense.
I am so often surprised that other bushcrafters, in an area with similar resources, fail to raise a back wall for proper shelter and interior space.
I enjoyed this. Very different.
To be fair, it wouldn't have been cheating to take eating utensils from home. After all, they're to be found in all homes. And there was enough change to be able to stretch to matches, not that you needed them.
Always enjoy your content, it's so cozy and nice to watch.
Reminds me of camping with other cubscouts in the 80s, basic kit with good outdoors teachers beats a mountain of kit without a clue
When I worked at a film studio, we used to bring sleeping bags to the office. The windowsills there were nice and wide and we could sleep between shifts 😆
Love videos like this thank you so much for posting. This is what beginners need. So much this.
1:59 It's actually not a belt attachment, but a button attachment, on most carpenter pants you have a bunch of extra buttons on your leg, where you attach your knife (and other tools).
Also, nice video about budget camping! This was basically how I did it when young and without money to buy a tent!
I have actually brought a sleeping bag to the office on a few occasions when 24+ hour shifts are required. Helps to get a quick nap in between tasks.
you make bushcraft super accessible, you explain stuff clearly and concisely and you dont give off toxic "manly man" vibes, just a dude enjoying himself in the woods.
What an absolutely phenomenal video! THanks for doing the budget setup!
I think in this day and age with a lot of people struggling financially these kind of videos keeps the option open for people to do the things they want in a reasonable budget. Thank you for thinking of people like myself who are far from wealthy and work normal minimum wage jobs.
Good vid. In America we have yard sales or garage sales. I don't know what they are called across the pond. Some of those items can be picked up very cheaply if you are patient. Then you could spend money on the things you didn't have.
Carboot Sales over here, Charity Shops (Goodwill) are another good source.
@@BlackthornBushcraftA CARBOOT SALE!! Immaculate.
I got my small pruning saw from Lidl, cost less than a fiver. It doesn't fold, it extends from the handle and has a nice, positive cam lock, so no chance of it accidentally closing on your hand.
Aldi and Lidl often have cheap kit that can be used for bushcraft.
I've got the same one, its actually decent
I've definitely used a morakniv for battoning wood. Good knife!
This is one of my favorite home cooking videos, that was actually practical.
This reminds me of the outdoor boys 25$ Walmart challenge. They forgot to buy something to make fire as well. Your shelter is definitely nicer then their's was.
Thanks for sharing this type of video Mike.
Hi Mike! Another good topic. I suspect that your clothing and boots added to your comfort a little. I understand it's tough to cover everything at your video's price point, but do you have any recommendations for cheap but serviceable outdoor clothing and footwear? Folks wearing nothing but cotton might be in for a bad night with the gear that kept you comfortable.
Missed a couple items in your list, but did a comparable list here in Canada on the Canada Amazon. Slight differences, $197 and after tax about $220 Canadian (£100 right now is ~170CDN), but I added a $20 sleeping mat and a backpack at $27 vs pillow case ($22). Of the list, the Hultafors knife I have already, two of them actually, a decent knife for the price.
I love every one of your videos.
I'm so happy that your subscribers and view counts are growing now. You deserve so much success for the way you approach your content creation.
Cheap gear is good for building your loadout, i did the same but over time i began to switch stuff for expensive ones. Right now i have to swith my cheap 10Euro multitool with a LM Signal! The cheap multitool did the job, taking away hot stuff from the fire with the pliers, but the knife is so garbage it can't cut anything, i doesn't even have a locking mechanism!
Brilliant, mate - inspirational, even. Cracking shelter (and love the 'leave no trace' ethos). Subbed!
Loved it ✌️❤️. I remember people doing poundland overnighter challenges a while back for about a tenner including food. Would like to see your take on it.
This was awesome man! That knife looked like a mora style, I have the companion version and I absolutely love it!! That paracord was unexpected in its versatility, but well enjoyed! Thank you for doing this man. It's very nice to see people in other countries doing budget friendly gear and kits...especially overnight stuff! This was an absolutely awesome way to end my work week my friend. Keep the great content coming!!!!!
Cheers Peter! Glad you enjoyed it.
The man who cuts the wood warms himself twice!
Ok boomer
Really enjoyed watching hope you do more cheap tip and trips I love them
Really enjoyed your video here, was nice to see more affordable kit being used, not to say i hate your bush craft kit you normally use (in fact Ive modeled mine after it), cheers have fun, stay safe!
Great job Mike
Before I bought a manufactured tent, I used an 8'x24' roll of clear 6mil Visqueen, costs about $8 USD. I also bought cloths line rope for about $4 USD, along with cloths pins for about $3 USD. Ttal cost for large tent...$15 USD. You do need 2 trees semi close to each other for this tent to work, but I always camp in forests, so it was never a problem. How to do it: Use your cloths line to string a line as high up as you can reach between two semi-close trees, but at least 8' apart. Use what ever knots you know, but get the line as taut as you can, both around the trees abs between the trees. Lay out your the starting edge of your Visqueen directly under the cloths line above, then spread it out 2' to one side of the "ridge" clothsline. Anchor the plastic on the ground with rocks or your gear or wood from around your campsite. Rocks work best. Toss the plastic over ridge cloths line, then spread it out and make the side wall you just created as taut as possible, then use the cloths pins to hold it in place on the ridge. Now make the second side wall by bringing the remaining plastic down to the ground about 2' out from the ridge, making the tent about 4' wide. Fold the remaining plastic into the tent to create a floor, and anchor the second side you just created with whatever is at hand:gear, rocks, logs, etc. Last important step is to lap the remaining plastic over the top of the beginning piece, so that any moisture runs under the tent. Use your original anchors to hold down both layers of plastic. Tent is complete, and while open at both ends, it'll keep you dry under any conditions. Place your sleeping bag at the center of the tent and even in blowing rain of snow, you will stay dry.
Loved it! ❤
Really nice no fuss vid. Thanks for the lesson, going to save the links so I can get the knife, paracord and nesting canteen next month.
Nicely done mike.well done.
Great stuff in Lidl and Aldi at seasonal times
You are incredibly talented oh my god
Nice one Mike!!
Well done Mike! 👍😁
I do enjoy your videos. Thank you.
A great thing you can do with your branches and wood bits is find some brush and stack them haphazardly in there. This creates a very appealing place for many kinds of wild life!
The Morakniv 511 has a full tang, scandi grind, and is cheap as chips. Definitely buy one. Highly recommend over that one
It's not a full tang unfortunately, it's rather thin as well, great knife otherwise
@@Wilma5532 it's full tang.
I have several
With only 7 meters of cordage, I'll need every centimeter I can get............ This 6 inch piece is PERFECT.
Yeah I bounce between metric and imperial all the time. Grew up with my Dad using imperial and then I was taught metric at the same time at school 🤷🏻
Excellent! Some impressive camping gear for under £100.
Camping is very enjoyable, bro. I love watching it 🤩
Awesome video man, nothing better then the sound of tweeting birds and your own thoughts 👌
Maybe I'm gonna try de Sleeping Bag for an Office Nap, never thought about before… 🤔 😂
Enjoyed it 🏕️
Cool set up!
Excellent video 👏👏👏
Hultafors knives make excellent bushcraft blades.
Little tip for the sheath, push the blade of the knife underneath the belt loop then twist to pop the clips.
Such a great challenge and very nicely done. 👍
Very nice camp at an even better price tag!
Great video, now I just need to grow some, and give it a try.
The hultafors knives are great, pretty indestructible
Loved it!
Love this video idea! Would love a series where you slowly increase the budget (£400, 1000, etc).
😆😆😆 I'm impressed!. I've been tarp camping on more than one occasion, and this is a great way to set up a hobo camp. I was impressed by the log wall you made... what a great idea for the future should it be necessary to make a stealth camp, or a temporary field base of operations! What a great way to break the force of the wind, and a great way to stay dry, out of the rain.
Loved this - crazy how you managed to get that knife for under 10 pounds, when here in australia it's closer to $40! As always, thoroughly enjoy your content :)
Nice video. The gear was great for the price
The knife I love the most is a morakniv which comes around for 15 bucks. It's insanely sharo, robust.... yes, and it is availabe in pink. Usually I say, the pinkness is important to find it in the wood. But I really love the happy colour. 😂
I have a bright orange moraknife, certainly going to spot it if i drop it in camp
Thank you!
It's not the tool (mostly); is the know-how and experience.
Same happens with photography and video,cooking, etc
Cool video man 👍
Love what you do and how you teach
This was a good one 👍🏻
great video pard
