Building a Bushcraft Camp in the Forest - Wood Saw Horse, Tarp Chair, Log Cabin Notches
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2024
- I head to our secondary Bushcraft Camp where we build a Bushcraft Tarp Chair and a Saw Horse. We light up the camp fire and show you how we built our Bushcraft equipment using various log cabin notches and lashing with cordage. Badger's Rest camp is starting to look like an awesome off-grid home. Once we've built some natural shelter and perimeter walls, the bug out style camp will start to really develop - What would you guys like to see there?

Back at Badger's Rest Camp 🏕 Been at the Wood Fort Camp a lot lately too so expect more vids from there! Overnighter soon too 👊🏻
TA Outdoors you guys are carrying the fire for this generation’s outdoor passion
And hopefully younger people like me will carry it for the next generation 🔥🔥
What was that saw called? I want one! I never seen a collapsible one.

Great video Mike, I would like to see a proper beer cooler cellar. Someplace you could store a six pack and basic items that are better cool. Secondly, perhaps a stone fireplace with a smoker? It would be TOTALLY AWESOME! Then you can smoke some fish, and other small game you harvest, and lastly, a garden! Grow some root vegetables, potatoes, leeks, onions GARLIC!, etc...you wouldn't have to pack as much food when you camp. Keep up the good work!

I have to say how envious I am that you and your father are both in good enough health, and share the same interests to do these things together. It's how it ought to be in my thinking, but does not always work out that way. Plus to have these times preserved in picture is priceless. I hope your lives off camera are just as blessed. 👍🏻👍🏻
You and your father make a fine team! I am like he is: if I get down that low to the ground, I need to grab something to help me rise again. The camp life tricks you demonstrated are neat! Frankly, I am envious of that FireStorm (I think) pocket bellows. We cannot purchase it in the USA (sigh.) We can get something a bit shorter, without the refinement of the brass tip...and without the very nice leather neck pouch. I appreciated watching your father use joinery as well as cord to produce a stable saw horse (saw buck) and the chair. I wish I had had a woods-wise and patient father to bring me along in the forest life! Cheers to you both!
buy a selfie stick and use that exactly the same make your own pouch.
Some might not find the chair "bushcrafty", but as a person with a bad back, it's awfully nifty. Nice work. Mike, I love the dynamic between you and your dad.
Automatic thumbs up. Especially when the old man's in it. Thanks for the upload.
First off I wanted to say congrats on the wedding Mike and that I hope you guys have a great ceremony and honeymoon! Bushcraft wise, I thought I'd share my method for cabin notch cutting! After cutting the two main channels into the wood (the ones that decide the depth and width of the notch), cut as many more channels in between as you can. Afterwards this allows for a way easier time removing the remaining wood in the space that will form the notch. I use the same hatchet as you and I'm able to put the edge of the blade between the cuts and simply twist to pull out the wood. Makes is way faster and easier!
I love seeing you and your dad spending time together doing what you love! I lost my Dad a year ago this month. Cherish these times you have together.
Great to see a father and son bushcraft video. Do as many trips as you can together.
It's really great to see father and son out there having a laugh and doing outdoorsy things together ...Great channel , I always look forward to your videos 😊👍🙏❤️
Thank you!
Ta dad: dont be like that. ... is the mother of all invention. I like the differences between what you and mike need. That way i get to see many more things.
Congrats on your now (almost) 1 1/2 years of marriage. Blow tube is cool idea, I’ve never seen that before. I like the camp chairs also 👍🏻 The Viking house is looking good. thanks
how about doing a 1 weekend outdoors with only 5 tools in the near future? kinda like a survival challenge?
"catch, cook, 'n build weekend"
With U.K. Laws and Mikes style I think the chances of this is slim.
I think building a sawhorse definitely comes in handy.
I love you're camp shelter and averything you did , this help me alot to my camp site, great idee.....thanks to you and you're father.
Your dad is cool and a great asset to your productions !!!
Haven't seen one of those in years , the billhook I am referring to. We don't have them over here in Canada, at least I have never seen one. I wish I had brought one with me when I moved here 45 years ago. Oh well, I guess if I ever come back for a visit I will be buying one and bringing back with me. Thanks for the memory.
Use of a toggle to help with tightening the lashings: brilliant!
Congratulations on getting married.
I can relate with your dad! Can get down just fine! Getting up is where its getting tough! I also had to watch it a couple times when he threw his knife into the tree stump! Hope you do a video of the wedding and share with us! Congrats!!
You need to build a meat smoker.
We'll get planning!
Fantastic video mike really like how you guys introduced your dads video of him building the chair and the time you guys took with the saw horse and chair notching the lumber to get a tighter fit great job to you and your dad. And congratulations on your up coming wedding cheers
you guys need a proper cooking set up out there. like a nice table near the fire too work from. and a covered wood store area would be nice.
Yeh thinking of building the wood store area next
That's a strong cool old man you got there. God bless.
a tarp covered sauna that is heated with hot rocks is fabulous in winter
Always enjoy and look forward the videos of you and your Dad make together.
Awwwwwwww yeah. Thanks for the upload
Well alright, since you asked... I usually have two fires at my camps. One for cooking and the other for people gathering. If I'm alone or with my best girl, I have one, the cooking one. It's a regular campfire ring, dished out, with a trench off to the side that gets a cross wind. The trench is a few inches more narrow than my rectangular grills and about 8 - 10 inches deep. Straight off you get a good fire going with hardwood and as the coals are formed you rake them into the trench. No, you aren't cooking yet, you are just getting rid of the moisture in the dirt in the trench. Cooking comes later, and preparing the grilling trench will assure success when cooking. Keep the fire going and the trench fed with coals. On the downwind side of your fire pit, place logs for later, you are just getting them hot and getting the moisture out of them. Make sure to put some sort of reminder as to where the trench is, since it is at ground level it is an easy hazard! There ya go, even if the coals are burnt out in the trench, there are plenty in the fire and it takes just a second to rake them into the trench, toss your wire on top and grill, boil, fry, to your heart's content. If you want to go a step further, dig a hole for a dutch oven at the other side of the trench for baking your bread or biscuits, again the coal factory is right there and all is there to do is rake the coals into the hole, place your dutch oven on top and rake some coals on top of the oven, cover with dirt and go fishin'.
Congrats on marriage and LOL at your dad asking about honeymoon video.
You are an awesome team together. I love watching you do your camp. The people here in the u.s. don't know how to bushcraft
Love that mini-Bowie knife.
Has anyone seen a Wooden Camp Chair where you take 2 Boards and knotch one and it fits into the other one like a Puzzle. It gives you a chair with a Tall Back Rest and a place to sit. I used to belong to a group called "The Society for Creative Anachronism" who like to re-enact Medieval Stuff and someone had a chair like this. It was in Oregon, the Night was clear of clouds and the Moon was so Huge you could almost touch it. I sat down in this chair and leaned back and it was then I gave it a name. The Stargazer Chair, because when I leaned back I was looking straight up at the sky and that Night there were Millions of Stars in the Sky. It was Amazing and something I'll Never Forget.
I watch the video, after 2 mins i click like , 2 mins later I go to click lick and realise I've already done it. TH-cam let me like more than once!!!
Plus one for using the poly twin. Handy stuff. Extra points for using a Bill Hook. 18:00. They are called brush hooks here in the eastern US. About the handiest piece of kit in the woods bar none.
Congrats on getting married, may u have a prosperous life's journey together...
Thought the title meant you were going to start a log cabin build together! Congrats on wedding.
I use a PocketBellows, really small, telescopic, has a carrying thing, and absolutely brilliant.
Hunting tower 2.0 has to happen! :D
Great vid as always please do a collab with Joe robinet
Great news mike. Have a great day!
Congrats on your wedding hope I hope you have a fantastic time all the best
i love ur wood saw..
Hi guys, fantastic to see your dad building stuff ... cool, chilled out and relaxed, he makes it look so easy. Low on water? You could leave the chair out to catch the rain If needed. Or somewhere for Jacks to shelter under to get out of the weather. :-)
Good idea!
thank i like so much your video
I can already tell this is going to be the best vid
Keep up the great videos
Ps hi
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Hope you have a wonderful day.
I watched your pallet cabin videos and saw the saw horse. I then searched and found this video and watched it this morning. Great design! I spent all day cutting wood out of our prairie and building my own. I can't believe how long it took me, but I finished and it looks and works great!
I envy your relationship with your father. I’m glad to see you guys do so much together. Super awesome, and educational vids as well man I learn a lot!
Congrats, don't let her kill your channel. Bring her with you on the journey.
Super!
Name a better duo! I'll wait!!
I like how quickly you get into the action in this one. Also, that fire blower looks fun.
Great job on the chair Mike! Nice to see you using the pocket bellow, how awesome are they! See you at the treehouse soon ;)
Bushcraft Heroes yeh great little things!!
small tip, at 22:10 if you put a small stick between the rope and the frame the pressure will be spread more evenly over the trap thus making it less likely to tear at the holes.
You should build a lean too for when you are out over the winter you are shelters from the wind but also the wet weather. It means you don't have to sit within your sleeping quarters and it can be that little bit closer to the fire pit.
This awesome bushcraft channel video they make are amazing awesome for people to learn things about bushcraft activities and educating people about outside Ventures and please make a Bow and arrow kit and I am personally glad to support those two and super exciting experience bushcraft channel 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Love the videos man "keep it up"👏👏
Nice saw horse, fellas.
Going to have to make a saw horse like that looks good all the best for the big day😎😎
Just love the father and son duo. You guys are very entertaining and knowledgeable. Keep up the good work.
What would I like to see in Badger's Rest? How about Benny's Beauties running around? Now THAT would be TA awesome! ....learning all the time...😉
WOW! Awesome video!! Thanks for doing this!! Cheers from Canada!!
A water filter system maybe? From the rain ofc, or just a rain water collection for washing your equipment/gear or utensils.
congratulations on your upcoming wedding
Have you taken an inventory of the surroundings? edible and medicinal plants? cordage plants? contact-toxic plants? any basswood? Hawthorn? you can ditch your polycord if you have good size hawthorn, the bark strips of like long belts of leather, you need to know how to knot it though, but strong. Elm is the same way. Willow shoot bark can be twisted into very good cordage and the shoots without the bark can be made into wattle furniture, fence, baskets.... besides the bark can be steeped into a tea high in aspirin for your aches and pains.
Another great video! 👌
Wish you all the best for your wedding!
18:18 thought a thumb was going to get the chop
Nails boys they have been around for hundreds of years they come in all sizes and if dropped they rust away before nylon string rots,but don’t forget page three of the bushcraft Manuel leave no trace.
That's a nice shank
hey guys, doing a fantastic job. would love to see hotwater bath.maybe a firepit inside a pool of water. could use a 40 gallon drum, or just clay pit. thats would be awesome. ....keep up the good work. cheers
you should build a tree house or a hut for jax. just and idea I though of whilst I was watching the vid and also love the vid when a father and son are out In the outdoors it reminds me when me and my dad do stuff like that.
Congratulations on getting married, all the best
Great video, I really appreciate the humor and bringing your old man around. He is a great co-star
I cried when he cut that tarp..lol on the inside..
Hello from Oklahoma! Great video! You two are always very entertaining. And I learn a thing or three. God Bless!
Hello from Hungary :)
Great video. Love the camera shot at 16:13
You most definitely need a beer tap!
Haha primitive beer trap indeed!
excellent video and thanks you two for what you produce on you tube!!
Imagine how much easier it would've been to build the sawhorse if you'd had a sawhorse to build it 🙃
One other thing, I see very little difference between your poly-cord and lithium batteries. Sure have your hand saws, but a 18volt saws all is my choice. Work done in less than half the time, hardly any noise, and if you have a solar charger, very "green". Or charge the batteries in the truck. Have fun and enjoy our primitive roots.
Nice Video and a fantastic wedding with tons of good wishes for your future, lots of Good times in the years to come regards Barrie
Thanks Barrie
How about a standing deer look higher up then the one you already built? Or maybe a clay oven in your shelter?. Maybe you could show use your take on a aluminium can rocket stove? I have so many ideas and I'd love to see your take on them.
it is called Badgers Rest and badgers live underground. make a chilling spot underground kinda like a trench but with a roof so that you can sleep in there
As always, good content. Good video and audio quality. I like the interesting and funny commentary.
Nice video! Congratulations on the upcoming wedding!! :)
i love the accent
very good
I very like your dad :D
Love this channel! You guys are awesome!
Can u do a video of wht people can and can't do regarding public land in the UK its so hard to find somewhere to go out and do this kind of thing especially when u don't knw anyone with land
Check out MCQ Bushcraft - he has this covered pretty comprehensively 😊
200👍
Build aqueducts!!
Can you do a primitive catch and cook? Only using snares/traps made by hand? And more theory time, you seem to have a lot of good ideas up in that head of yours!
Very hard here with UK laws being so strict on snares and traps
l love yer idea the place if l'm fit from stroke slowly recover l want to be back to do your job getting a camp site to build
Build a shelter. It doesn't have to be like you crazy 2 story other one. Just a simple super shelter.

Hi I am a big fan!!, could u do a overnight at you camp because all of your overnighters a great keep it up ✌️
Amazing camera-work on this one! Looking forward to more updates at Badger's Rest!
Could you do a video on how to make some kind of a swinging gate or entry for a bush camp.
Thanks guys 🌳🌲⛰😎
Retractable ladder to a 10 ft raised bed would be nice to see.
TA Outdoors - you guys inspire older folks to get out and enjoy the good old outdoors. Your videos are always informative, interesting and enjoyable. I am surprised that you do not have more subscribers. In fact, I have been unsubscribing to the many channels that I subscribed to, but never will leave this one. By the way, is it true that pops taught the famous Beatles everything that they knew?
