My old house was put together like that. All done by hand, hand dug cellar with a big boulder in the middle of it. Hard work, but so cool.
You never fail to amaze me with new skills thankyou as always Corporal.
Fir or pine trees roots work as a field expediant replacement for twine. If you're that worried about the peg falling out you can heat up some pitch and use it as wood glue before you hammer the peg(s).
P.S. Off the cuff thought. The Gamble House might interest you if you really interior wood trim. It's unique but in a good way, not a weird way.
'Just a thought ... Scott and Matt (kentucky Bal. & Demo Ran.) contents' getting pretty dry. It's kind of sad to watch the decline. If you could get some of those "goofy" guys to be able to survive outdoors, it might show others how simple it is to get out and enjoy nature. and there's also the colab rating punch as well, obviously. 'Just a thought .... 'congrads on the hitch-up. L. Harder.
Cold here. 4 right now but gets to -20 at night. Thank you for another great video
There is a story passed down in our family of how my great grandfather built a 14' X 14' cabin out of a single oak tree and no nails, just wooden pegs!
I'll bet it lasted many years!
In 2016 a terrible storm blew through our and the adjacent valley
A eucalyptus tree fell through my uncle great grandfathers house which was pegged with wooden pegs,if it was not for tree falling through the roof I'd bet it would stand for another 200years
One thing I always heard, is that wood can retract around metal nails and to a lesser extent, screws. Wooden pegs last longer because they react the same way together. Part of the reason why the Northern European Stav style churches would last for centuries are the all wooden construction.
The old house we lived in when I was growing up was all put together with wooden pegs. Built in the very early 1800’s
Lol
Best part of Sunday mornings. Thanks for your constant great work.
thanks please tell Yt this
Shawn, 2 things - 1) you could have used the extra tent materiel as a ground cloth, with reflective side up to reflect body heat back to you; 2) We just had Boy Scouts do their winter campout this past weekend! We cover many of the subjects that you covered here, pluss how to stay warm. The average temp for this weekend was -2 degrees F! That's not the coldest we have camped in, but close. There were an estimated 1000 Scouts at this campout.
Second best part of Sunday, right after church!
Love the different methods of bushcraft and survival. The Corporal has a Chanel that causes one to think out side the box.
On the tree pin, could saw it off 1/2 inch out, tap w knife to split it, and drive piece of wood wedge into it to lock it
Thanks for the video. I know it takes a lot of work to edit. Plus thank you for your service in the military
This was epic AF!!!!!! Corporal is always ahead of rest of em!!!!!!
I appreciate all you do for for us who follow & subscribe . Thank you
Man, Sunday isn’t the same without hearing ‘catch you all in a few’ at chow time.
I've read bushcraft stuff, probably longer than Corporal Kelly has been alive. I haven't seen anything like this. He answered a good "what if" scenario. Always keep thinking, always keep learning. GREAT VIDEO
Excellent project! If you think about it this is probably how early settlers explored the Northwest Territories in the 18th century (think the Lewis and Clark expeditions). They had basic tools, oilcloth, wool blankets, but cordage was hard to come by unless you made it yourself from homespun fibers such as flax, hemp, or wool, cotton was a luxury. Pegging was a common construction technique for cabins and furniture. I love it, please continue down this path...
My hat's off to you Cpl Kelly. I attempted a solo overnight last weekend. Dreadfully cold. I can see you are working in the snow- sticking with it- getting things done- all for us youtube watchers.
Outstanding job. I have said it & I will say it again: This man is a DOER, no bs. Shawn leads by example, his ideas r solid & his work is hard & honest. Thank you for one more great video!!!🤝🤝🤝
My hiking buddy lost his pack with most of our cordage. We came across an old, fallen house. We used old rusty nails instead of cordage for our shelter. It held well ... so we gathered several of those nails and used them for the rest of the hike. I still have a few of those nails in my storage house to remind me of that trip. I think, for grins, I will try the auger/peg configuration. A great video. Thanks much!
That cold might be effecting you more corp. My grandfather always had a wise one-liner for everything and in this case, it was "It's hell to get old." I never understood what he meant until now about how the cold effects you differently as you get older. Like you, Im still a tank but I got a lot of sqeaks and rattles now 😂 Good vid as always! Stay dry brother!
The greatest non-transferable gift you bring to the show is your own God-given creativity.
-60F with windchill this weekend up here in Saskatchewan… but last weekend I camped under a tarp fireside overnight at around 0°F and that’s as cold as I ever want to do it lol! Love the cordless shelter!
This is great survival knowledge and skills in action. Fantastic job.
Hey there Devil Dog. Once again, I learned something new. I truly appreciate all the work you do. I'll hopefully be getting a cold handle skillet and a striker here soon. Not sure about getting a hoodie though. I'm also a Marine, but I only made it to Lance Corporal. I don't want the hassle of someone accusing me of "Stolen Valor" for wearing a Corporal insignia. Even though it's not a uniform, the world is full of idiots that don't know any better. Great video. I always take #36 bank line with me in my pack. It's just a convenience that is sometimes overlooked. Semper Fi Brother.
Papaschuette: I made it to Sarge before I got fed up with Mickey Mouse and his merry band of cartoon turds in the corps tho I loved my time in. I am also a retired Sales Mrktg guy some said guru some said a pokey ole sales man. Anyway the corps only owns the stripes with the crossed rifles insignia. The Cpl has crossed logs and a fire so its different. If the Cpl offered the actual Marine insignia he’d have to pay the corps a bunch of money up front plus a percentage for the privilege. (I looked into it yrs ago.) I’m sure you’d be fine and as a Sarge I would ‘t be offended at all, the logos represents the Cpl’s Corner not the corps. Just my two cents, I’m waiting to order my Cpl hoodie. Semper Fi stay frosty…
Appreciate you man, God bless you and your viewers too. Take care.
Love the val Halla song, used to use it all the time old school original CC vibes
Shawn, I will be 60 in March and I can say the cold doesn't get better lol
Another good video and the explanation on the wind was great. Thanks again for your time and the videos.
I started working out again this week. Thanks to you pushing that. Use to be in good shape. But, the everyday hustle and bustle got me.
This was another great build especially showing how it can be done with no cordage. But you’re right, be prepared and bring what you need. You were not kidding! As soon as I received your notification I went to your Etsy store and they were gone fast! 😂 maybe next time. Anyhow appreciate your hard work in putting together these videos. 👍
Again, i cant overstate that these techniques ARE survival techniques. People need to start thinking about a world with limited electricity. Every old process needs only a big imagination to expand how they are applied. Tks again,Corp
This has become a staple of my Sunday morning routine lol love the content 🤙🏾
Those wooden nails actually work well. I had a friend who lived in a building that was old (try pre-revolutionary way era old) and it was built entirely of those wooden pegs/nails.. damn thing also had a hoist built into it (it was originally a warehouse).. the only nails were the recent remolding.. but the main structure.. wooden pegs/nails. It was probably the most sturdy structure I've ever seen.. They an last much longer than you think.. though admittedly, your stuff deals with weather and that was internal so out of the weather.. but outside of that.. Don't knock it.. that's the construction used for a great many of years in our history..
You are, hands down, the king of campsites.
please tell Yt this
Going to have to say, think the cordless tent is very impressive. A nice evolution, have yet to see it. Like the reminder of orientation is a short and sweet definition (KISS) hoorah. Yes it's an army thing. Well done Marine.
Outstand video as always. Couple of small points however. 1. If you angled the dowel into the tree, even by 10+ degrees upwards, you could use the angular space for your ridge pole instead of having to bore another small hole for a pencil thin wood peg. Saves you time. 2. The amount of tarp that you bunched up against the back of the shelter, could you not unbunch some of it and use it as a ground sheet. In answer to a question I have been asked numerous times over the years as a Forester. No folks, boring into a tree does not "hurt" the tree. They have no central nervous system.
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. Good advice!
It's always a great day when Corporals corner and
Ranger Survival and Field Craft post videos! 🤗
Another solid one, Corporal.
1. Cool video. Love the double meaning "cordless" shelter.
2. You could sharpen one side of the black steel pipe and cut perfectly sized pegs no?
3. Use the auger on your victorinox to drill pilot holes for the wooden nails.
4. Use an L7 branch as a handle for the scotch auger like an old school bit holder. Simply hold the scotch eye and crank away increasing your bit speed.
5. I think you should just say the first 50 people to watch the video can buy a cup and bottle set. 😂 Seriously checked like 30 min after video dropped and they were gone AF.
Anyway just some thoughts. Thanks for the work over the last 200+ weeks! It just wouldn't be Sunday without a corporal video!
Thank you for your hard work. It is 6 degrees here in Michigan.
Really like this tarp
Great stuff sir. Enjoy the quiet.
Thanks for the video!
you should have drilled your "wooden nail" holes and made pins for those.
Also your stop pin ... next time, try a wedge in the end of your dowl, Cut a slot then wedge it.
Take a break ... 7 days a week and you and I both know a 14 hour day is a short day for the self employed / self motivated.
See you midweek!
Just chilling is always awesome 😁, dayum outstanding video Corporal, another great build, and using no cordage, never thought it was possible 😃, keep up the amazing work looking forward to your midweek videos 🤙🤙🤙
Loved the "don't be stupid" remark. And plan for the worst and hope for the best is the motto I live by. Great job as always Shawn. Keep on keeping on.
My life motto has been: "hope for the best, plan for the worst, accept what comes and make the best out of it"
It’s -2f here. I love going out like this…but not today lol. Outstanding af cpl!
And Add 6 31/2 Nails To Your Kit, Also You Could Of Used The Flap To Set Your Sleeping Pad On . Temp Here Is -5 In Illinois.
I actually love this idea as a semi permanent location to camp in the woods. I can think of a few other techniques you’ve shown to incorporate to make this an awesome setup
Thank you, Corporal for saying bring what you need. I get a kick out of people who take two or three items into the woods and then go oh crap. I'm screwed. I didn't bring what I need. I'm in my letter years of life. I'm an amputee missing one of my arms and I get Into the Woods as much as I can. I appreciate your skills in your honestyou're actually one of the reasons I got back into the woods ,,, I go prepared with redundanciexclamation point !!
Hey Shawn, another great informational method and tools for a shelter. Great job! Thanks for the video…🇺🇸
Hey Corporal! Fantastic video ❤! Thanks for sharing your skills with us. I look forward to seeing your videos on Sunday and mid week! For the other days of the week; I re-watch or catch up on all your previous posts!
Ditto
Same here.
Well done Shawn.
Words of wisdom from practical experience, practice beforehand.
Love. A new way.
Looks very good Shawn. Hope you enjoyed the fire and coffee 😊 Thanks
Always awesome AF....and damn the cup and bottle set sold fast, missed it agian
That building montage was awesome. It felt like the world hinged on you making that auger and driving that pin.
Growing up in Alaska I learned to carry a few tools such as an auger to make things in the woods. When hunting on an island and the weather changes and your ride doesn't show up you had to be able to survive!
Outstanding
Awesome, love the old school skills, great video with no cordage, true survival, no Altoids can, thought you could survive a month on that , lol, I know its hard on your body, but the videos that are the hardest are the best, thanks for the videos,
My house is biult wood and peg new England 1700s place is solid af
Good job Shawn! Wood nail are better from dry wood, just an FYI. That's one heavy tarp so, the fact that it didn't collapse down onto you, says you did a fine job. It's always amazing how simply creating a windbreak keeps you so much warmer. You're doing a great job with your channel! Trying to keep up with orders, speaks volumes!
Very practical advice and suggestions in case one is stuck outside in the winter with minimal gear.
Your stronger than me I have always wanted to do a winter camp myself, but I get cold easily great video.
Outstanding! I carry #36 in all my vehicles. It’s saved my bacon more times than I care to count. Better to have and not need than need and not have. This is the way. Keep up the great work.
I’m really enjoying the new videos of 2024! Keep up the good work!
True bushcraft!
Totally awesome!!!! TY!!!!
Just goes to show what can be done with some common sense and ingenuity. Love it. CHANCE FAVORS THE PREPARED MIND.
Just a heads up yesterday it was extremely cold and our weather is heading that way. I used to live in Ohio I know how cold it can get if it was that cold here itll be 3x as cold there when it hits.
Suit up cause its comin. -15 windchills 11 degrees for the highs. So be ready we also got some light snow. When I was living there it hit -23 below and that wasn't wind chill so I know how cold it gets there. Definitely Hypothermia chances and Frostbite within mins.
Unique concept this week for modern bushcraft. Great job as always
@jimlong3288 Yes.....I did say in modern bushcraft. Can't say I've seen pegs used in anything but log cabin builds in a very long time
Awesome video as usual sir! Participated in a short ruck with my local TN NG unit last Saturday. Met a former Corps guy who knows you. I was inquiring about his Expeditionary patch.
Another great video. I would say it doesn't matter if you're the first or not to do this, what matters is that you did it. You took the time to not only ask if it could be done, you went and did it and learned from it. That is something most of us don't get a chance to do. Thanks again 😎👍
Good stuff. Thats the beauty of old school. If it worked for thousands of years, it still works now.
Love it, Corporal!!!
THIS IS OUTSTANDING AF!!!
Always like how you change it up and do something new/different!
Mmmmm eggs!
Couple questions;
1. Why not use the excess material/reflective side as even more heat reflector?
B. Wedge vs. Pin for the “tree dowel”?
3. Have you seen the char cloth trick with a flint and steel?
I’m not triggered, Brother! Just questions I had.
Keep making these AMAZING TUTORIALS and I’ll keep finding them! Yes I was late getting notifications on the midweek! But I still find them!
Semper Fi, Marine
Still the best !! Happy New Yr. G. Speight
liked this one also. love your teaching.
Thanks for another great CC week. Just got my cook set ordered.
I feel like sewing a CC patch on one of my hats. We are having a real cold spell. Inside is nice. Great to watch, re-watch CC videos!!!
Thanks for all the years of training and knowledge transfer!!!
Great video showing what you can do with less you just need to proper things with you with you
that shelter is awesome 🤘🤠
i think the only thing you should have done different was to use the extra tarp at the back for extra bed liner
Great vid Corp! Being from the frozen north, I always like seeing winter/cold weather survival vids.
Great shelter! Agree cordage is certainly the way to go but again I appreciate you pressing the envelop on new builds and creating tools. That is what separates you from others, new interesting content! Missed the bottle and cup set again! I will get one eventually! Keep up the incredible videos!
Love that Rangergrip 78! Not just a pocket knife.
Its -9 this morning in co. Perfect wake up to my morning. Thanks for all you do
If someone says it can't be done, Shawn makes it happen lol.....this scenario hasn't really crossed my mind, honestly. It's good to see someone with know-how or forethought actually pull it off. Well done, sir.
I'm about 300 miles west of you, and our night was sub-zero with windchills in the low -20s.......what a difference distance makes, no matter how small. Go home and appreciate your new bride, then start doing that E-4 mafia stuff you do so well 😁
Keep up the good work.....and once again your video dropped while I was at work. No sweet Etsy store stuff for me again lol
A great video, as always.
Two things I would have done differently, though, would have been to use a wedge hammered into the dowel securing the ridge pole to the tree, like what's done with axe heads securing them to the handle.
The other thing would be draping the tarp over the ridge pole, instead of putting a small wooden spike/nail through the grommets into the pole.
Great video. A couple of woodworking tips that might help making an unnecessary complex cordless shelter. You can easily make wooden dowels by hammering a piece of wood through a hole on a scrap of steel, even a washer will do the trick, also you can wedge a dowel from inside a hole, just place a wedge in the peg before driving it inside.
Great setup with no cordage! Great video! Ty Corp! Really enjoyed it!
Ya my winter camping went great till the -5...this week has killed it for me so come on spring
That's a perty cool shelter using no cordage. I've never done that. But like you said cordage would be faster. When I was young my tent was a sheet of visqueen and bailing twine and I was good to go. I like what you do, keep up the good work and God bless
Great job. Something different and makes you use your mind. Thanks
Great video, you always have a great video. People need to remember the basics. That’s what will keep you alive to fight another day. Carrying those small augers like you’re talking about that you have made is an excellent idea. They don’t weigh nothing they don’t take up any space. As far as I’m concerned, that’s a necessity I have a little bit bigger auger that I carry with me, but there’s smaller ones like you have are the best.
Thanks for another great video. We appreciate all the work you do to entertain us.
I really like that tarp. Excellent video! Always thinking about the "what if?"!
Great video. Really enjoyed that one. I didn't have to use the link as you suggested, it popped up in my feed as it usually does. 😀
If ever in a pinch to make a emergency shelter use nature for yourself. Thanks corporal for your idea thank you again for sharing
Awesome work! Thanks for sharing. Great camera work too
I got the 50th set. Thank you!!!
I will keep shopping, and building my CC equipment.
Have fun!
Always Outstanding AF. Thank you.
A great video, knowledgeable and useful, in a few words. 😊
Appreciate all the hard work you put in to provide info.
This guy's great. 1 of the best out there. Honest bushcraft learning with a military twist. And killer food. Sub and watch his ads. It helps.
I always learn from and enjoy your videos.
Can you do an underground/stealth shelter for long term survival? Love your videos.
