- Winter Bushcraft, fire blower, spruce glue and hammocking in a spruce forest.
I am making a fire blower out of a piece of pine. To hold it together I am making some spruce glue.

So nice. I turned this on when I woke up and it sucked me in there so much I almost forgot I need to go to work now. Appreciate you went back for you co-star there! That is the coolest dog! Thanks!
Haha!! Thanks my friend :)
Light was perfect
I'm here because of Mr. Bertram-Nielsen. Love to watch these dudes. Sometimes I think they would be the only ones surviving WW3. Watching this is not only educational but also very relaxing. This is true freedom and independence. This is how people used to live for thousands of years and were so much better. Everything now is sterile and devoid of nature. I really would like to spend my free time like this.
Yes
daxx77m1 better in many ways, much harder in many ways. These guys have the best of both worlds, yes?
This man is just absolutely amazing! The entire video was both relaxing and extremely interesting. The sheer ingeniousness of everything he does is mesmerizing. That chair! That fire screen! And that insanely crazy glue, whoa. I stumbled across his videos by accident and immediately subscribed and am about to find another one to watch. I loved the rain on the tarp at night.
Thank you very much for your kind words :)
Sejt Don. Fede projekter og førsteklasse kamera håndtering. Fedt at se den mobile stol du nævnte sidst - super smart og meget overbevisende soliditet. Tak for video :)
Tak min ven :) Jeg smed stolen ud. Den var for kort i ryggen :/
I'm in here cause you Mr. Nielsen :)
@@DonVonGun ok. Jeg må selv prøve at lave en lign. ved lejlighed :)
Jeg skal også have lavet en, om det bliver samme facon eller noget andet det er jeg ikke helt klog på endnu.
Which camra you use for your jungle trip , i want to start my food channel , i am from Pakistan🇵🇰
So nice, what a magical forest in the beautiful light, thank you for sharing this moment with us
Thank you :)
I wonder who disliked this? WHY would you dislike something like this?
Amazing atmosphere, sound and image!
Thank you very much :D
Estimado Amigo, buen video, sigue así, ya me suscribí ayer, genial sigas inculcando lo que es un verdadero hombre europeo nórdico, saludos desde Uruguay en sudamérica, mis ancestros son europeos. Gracias
Hello my friend🖐🏻😏
Recently l've been thinking about your new video..here it is😊
The forest is amazing..so many big logs, fatwood and resin🤔🌲🌲🌲👍🏻
The dog is cute🐕🤗
I always watch your movies with great pleasure..they are awesome🔥
Thank you and atb✊🏻🐺

Thank you very much :) Atb to you too :)
Hello from Oklahoma! I really enjoy your videos! Thank you Sir! There is nothing better than spending time in the woods with your best friend or friends in my case. Interesting projects you had going there. Thanks again! God Bless!
Thank you very much :)
Got to be careful, a root fire can take off in a spruce forest very easily. But looks like he has it all together for sure. Love the scenery!
I know. Thanks :) I am more nervous about the underground in some beech forests, most places with spruce in Denmark the underground is sandy, and I keep my distance from the trees.
Inspiring, informative, and beautiful as always @DonVonGun Is the deer droppings in the glue mix to stop it from cracking in cold temperatures? I know when I made the birch bark canoe with Tom Byers he always mixes bear fat in his spruce pitch for that reason. Is this the same idea?
Thank you TT :) The droppings is made of plant fibres, and is added to strengthen as a binding material. Fat is used in glue to make it flexible. :)
Great footage and editing. You and Mouse are very entertaining and make me lol , my 5 dogs are all on Raw meat with bones and never been to a veterinarian for health issues 2 of them are 15 and 17 yrs old and still have strong good teeth and good eyesight . Thanks again for making this wonderful footage and tell Bertram we miss him also👍
Wow that is cool. Those are some old dogs. :) Musen only gets to the vet once a year, so we can get vaccine for her passport so we can travel. :)
@@DonVonGun come see me!
one of the best bushcraft videos I have seen. really good. thanks
Thank you very much :)
Very cool work Don. Enjoyed your fire blower. Been thinking of making a didgeridoo the same way. Need to get a gouge first 😉
Thank you :) Good idea with the didgeridoo, looking forward to hear it :) A gouge is a must have. ;)
Another awesome video, one of my most favourite channels, a big thank you DonVonGun.
Thank you very much :D
Watching your videos is mind set preparation for my trips and adventures. You are definitely a standard, thanks for the time and effort it takes to share.
Thank you very much. Glad if I can inspire. :)
Какие сказочные леса! Деревья великаны!!!
I love those giants :)
I think we all had a shock moment when the ice cracked under the dog.
It's shallow. :)
Igualmente. Desde Popayán Colombia. Same from Popayán Colombia.
@@DonVonGun you should visit canada, you'd fit right in :)
I never tried blood sausage with sugar... Need to! Like always, a very pleasure vídeo to watch, Don! ;-)
Thank you :) You should it tastes way better than it sounds.
You have some amazing skills. Excellent video! Love the dog! Anyone ever tell you that you look like Eric Clapton?!!
Thanks :) Haha!! some other dude wrote that to this video as well. :O
Thank You. I enjoy your craft.
Thank you :)
Another great vid. You sure have a knack for making your surrounding environment look amazing!
Thank you very much :)
Awesome! You and Nagualero are my favorite bushcrafters. Very hands on less talk.
Thank you :D
I thought you already showed me the most beautiful kuksa on YT but I just saw another one! Skandinavian YT'ers and filmmakers have at least one thing in common - quality. ATB from Belgium - Marc
Thank you very much :)
I have to say, I watched this video last night on my television and enjoyed it very much ! I really appreciate your laid back casual attitude lol, I love that chair you made as well ! I had to hop on my computer this morning to say as much and give a thumbs up for the video ! ( my tv dosnt have the comment or like feature ) thanks again and take care !
Thank you very much :) Glad you like it :D Take care.
Another brilliant bushcraft video. You have amazing talent friend. And, I like your dog companion too 👍
Thank you very much Yakoob :)
Welcome Don
It was very interesting!
Thank you :)
Another great video. Beautiful forest, you seem at home . Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much :)
Wonderful! I am a hammocker in West Virginia and seem to always be in sticky spruce groves. Now I know what to do with all that sap. Need to track some deer next time for that ESSENTIAL ingredient. Thanks!
Haha!! Yes make some glue, but have a little more patience than me, or you will also be burned. ;)
WOW
What a set up. I need you to come and teach me. Love it.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
Beautiful Dog 🐕
Such a faithful friend
Thank you :D I couldn't do without her.
The only channel on TH-cam that could actually turn me into a bushcrafter. 😉
😁👍🏻
Haha!! Thought you were a bush crafter all ready? :) It is what you make it.
@@DonVonGun Coming from you, that would be a compliment friend. 👍
Lol you probably are already but you want to admit is yet 👍
Thank you :) Cool man, looking forward to see your trip. Cheers :)
beautiful dog!!!! ferfect companheiro!!!!
This dude is the real deal. Stunning content and he knows his stuff. Seems like a cool dude
Blood sausage / black pudding. What a great meal. Cheers for the vid.
Thanks :) Cheers
Hello, congratulation for the video, i am from brazil, and where did you buy this tarp, its amazing !
Thanks :) The one over my hammock is from Colorado USA. Warbonnet Outdoors (superfly). The one over my camp, is from England DD Tarps. (3x3 superlight)
Fantastic stuff as always, you really capture the true spirit of being a woodsman
Thank you very much :)
Thank you for the wonderful video, gorgeous forest !!! We still have a lot of snow. Greetings from Russia.
Thank you :) Wow we hardly had any snow this winter. Just rain and wind. :(
Gréât vidéo Sir, good skills. Thanks and take care.
Thanks :) and the same back to you :)
Nice video, you are doeing diverend skills. I can learn a lotfrom that,Thanks.👍🏻
Thank you :)
Blood Sausage is called black pudding here in Scotland.Great vid mate!
We also call it black sausage, guess black sounds better than blod. :D
I like the way you do things. You are a good teacher
Thank you very much :)
so relaxing .I like your channel and I like what you do
Thank you very much :)
Beautiful landscape and cozy camp
Thank you :)
Great video Don!. You are a lucky man. Thanx from Spain!.
Thank you :)
aside from the part that the dog nearly fell into the frozen lake and i nearly screamed, good video sir, thanks!
Thank you :) We have been there before, and she usually jumps from the ground to the stump. ...the water is shallow so I was not nervous. Its a good thing she has respect for ice. She never walks on lakes. :)
Theres some amazing shots in this video - great workmanship in front and behind the camera!
Rune Bertram brought me here
me too
@Rivera me too!!
Same.
Mee too.
I've watched 1000s of bushcraft videos an this is the first one to utilize a "troll tube". I have lived in the wild off an on for 30 years and a troll tube among my most utilized possessions, keep one next to my woodstove as well. The one in my pack is recycled from a Wal-Mart camping chair.
Good👍from America!
I wish we had these freedoms.
Thank you :D Yes I am lucky in that way.
Hi ya Don! New to ur channel, and I must say...if I can learn something of value from someone, they r worth my attention, u have earned my subscriptions from just one video, I’ve subscribed to few, mostly I watch several before I decide, not urs, this video was all it took. When ur friend fell through the ice and u went back for her/him, that says a lot about u, looking forward to more of ur videos! Thank u
Thank you very much :)
For all the hard work & hot stuff u touch...your hands look very nice. Love the fire.
I could watch your videos for days... you're such a professional
Thank you very much :D
Thank you very much. ...I dont have my own family, except from Musen. And she loves sleeping outdoors as well. So we get out a lot, and gets use try different projects, and experiment. Finding problems, and best of all fixing them. :D
Incredible footage and cinematography Don.
May I ask what camera and lens you used for this video? The low light scenes turned out awesome as well.
Thank you very much :) I use my Canon 5d mk II and a 50 mm. F1.4 And a few shots with my 15 mm. fisheye. And a couple with my 16 -35. F.2.8
I dont understand the thumbs down for this video 👍
Thank you :D
Good morning dvg😃i like waking up to you blowing heavily in my ear lol even if it smells a little funny like deer dung spruce& charcoal! Hehe who knew thats glue? brrr U2 are the real deal. Thankyou a thousand & many more for being you💜
You are the best. I gotta get that hammock tarp its the best design ive seen yet.
I luvU2🤗🖒👏👏👏❤
Hahaha!!! Sorry about the smell. But the smell was not the worst. It was hot as hell. Thank you Linda :d Warbonnet outdoors. Love their gear. :)
DonVonGun it needed to be hot to dry out poor Mouse getting wet. Brrr give her my usual rump tail scratches& forehead pats😄❤👂👃👅
:D She was almost dry when we got back to the campfire. I wanted a more fluffy doodle, but was told where I got her, that her kind 50/50 lab and puddle gets dry much faster. And have no fur maintenance. She has inner and outer fur. But I still nurse her. Its my choice, not hers, even do she loves sleeping outside. ;)
DonVonGun hold old is she? She is the cutest! Her happy gait cracks me up how dogs love to be out in the woods. Do ticks bother up there?
Happy Valentines Day DVG💘❤💗💖💕💓💜💙💚💛💥
3:30 - That chair is genius!
As always, a cool video, shot with love and respect for nature. Привет из Сибири. Удачи каналу!👍
Thanks :)
your videos are excellent. no pointless talking !
Thank you :)
Nice video 🙌🏻 many angle to enjoy
Thank you :)
Awesome bushcraft.
Great video Don 👍
The forest looks just like the one I enjoy. Gludstedplantage in central Jutland
Not that far from there. I love Gludsted plantage as well. ;)
Woooww beautiful place on there.... 😱😱 So smooth natural Flores, 👣🕵️ nice Vidio pap..
Thank you :)
A wonderful place and a nice time outside :-)) Super video, thanks!
Greets Brummer
Thank you very much :)
Survival 300 meters from the motorway :)
There is a highway 2 -3 km. behind the tarp. Unfortunately we have way more agriculture than nature in DK. You can hear cows at one point as well. :/
Just found your channel this weekend. Enjoying watching you doing various woodcraft in the forest. Living in the desert of the Southwest, there are few places to go.
Thank you :) I love trees, but a desert would be nice once in a while.
A good atmosphere I want to go to the forest good video
hi
Thank you :)
@@DonVonGun how are you ?
No talking,,,i like it,,, speek for itself
Очень естественно. Хороший контент. Больше видов красивых. Спасибо.
Thank you :D
Серьёзно? Я один видел как мужик полдня убил на трубку склеенную катяхами?
Greetings DonVonGun ;)
At the beginning of the video, it seemed that you were carrying the carcass of a deer to yourself for breakfast : D
Thank you for the journey! Super!!!
Haha!! Yes it looks huge. That would be cool :O But a little overkill. Thanks man :)
Beautiful spot, very peaceful.
Thanks :)
Thanks for the video. Manaus-Brazil.
Thank you :)
What a nice sleeping setup.
Thank you :D
I really liked your video, nice scenery… I saw in a video that prehistoric man would put clay around the end of the blower near the fire, so it would be more isolated from the fire...
Sounds like a good idea. Thanks :) I am not sure I will use a fire blower again. A stiff sitting pad is better in my opinion.
Great video Don, poor dog falling through the ice ha ha
Yes she is usually very agile, I dont know why she didn't jump, we have taken that rute before without ice. The water is shallow, but good that she has respect for the ice. :)
If you watch closely, she KNEW that jumping was going to break the thin ice! Just that little bit of extra force when she attempted the jump.
Yes. She knows it will go wrong. :)
Hi DonVonGuy, do you have a video on how you built your chair at the 3:00 mark? Looks like a great improvement over the more common camp chair design that feature two horizontal crossmembers? Your design looks to replace those with, more or less, the 'spring' pressure created by the vertical struts. Very cool design.
Thank you :) I threw it away. I made it to small and it was no good for my back. :(
Очень интересно и красиво. Спасибо.
Thank you :)
Awesome camp set up
Wonderful video, silent, peaceful, natural sound
Very nice tarp and hammock setup
Looks more like mid-autumn here in Canuckistan. Guess you have it a bit easier in your neck of the woods. Really enjoy the skill, scenery, and soundtrack. And your pup. :)
Our winters is from 0 - 10 c. And that sucks too. We only had snow for 30 minutes this winter. :(
@@DonVonGun We had a mild one too, relatively, but a reasonable amount of snow. March is our snow month though it was a dud for the first time in 7 years, but summer was late kicking in to punish us for that. I'm in zone 4a/3b with lake effect and mountainous terrain micro-climates. It is what it is.
I love your no trace camp sweet if you don't see you don't know lol only real woodsmen will see the truth !!! thanks again for the share .
Great lighting and color. Looks like a beautiful location.
Thank you. I like it there :)
I forgot to ask. What kind of chair is that? I like the design and wouldn’t mind making one.
Don, some great camera shots. Beautiful. thanks
Thank you very much :)
Cool stuff dude. You look very experienced out there. Awesome dog.
Thank you :)
I found your channel a few years ago. I must say that you are a talent when it comes to filmmaking. Although there is no talking, which I like very much, you still keep the viewer interessted. And you do some fancy stuff with angles and editing. Thanks for sharing these vids.
Thank you very much, that means a lot. My plan is to talk a little in every video, but not much, just a little update or a tip.
@@DonVonGun Keep going. I think it is very nice with less talk.
Your videos are addicting ! Once again a great job !
Thank you very much :)
love the forest & your vid. subscribed.
Thank you very much :)
At 4:45 you attached Wooki underquilt foot end to the "Buckle" of the tree strap, while you attached Wooki head end to hammock gathered-end (which is right). I guess you might have had cold feet due to the way you attached Wooki foot end to the buckle not hammock gathered end.
My rubberband is longer than usually at the food end. Else your are right. :9
some nice photography ! where are these woods ? Thanks for sharing your trip !
Nice camp!! Another sub!!!
the camera work is excellent, the dog is too cute and the landscape is beautifully captured... the bushcraft so well documented... one of the best I have come across in TH-cam. Congratulations ... Subscribed... p.s. I have my reservations handling deer droppings in between processing food with my bare hands though
Thank you very much :) I have a small bottle with soap and alcohol. :)
Hi from turkey. Thank you for video.
Thank you :)
Blood sausage is best with onion and black pepper. Try it.
:O Is there rasins and cinnamon in your recipe? Our blood sausage is kind of sweet.
Why does everyone doing bushcraft remind me of someone famous?! You look like Mark Whalburg 😂😂 that's a good thing though. Love your videos!!!
A great trip out to the woods.
Thanks :)
Excellent video once again. You never disappoint.
Thank you very much :D
what a nice forest..Nice video..poor dog entered in the water wow i was afraid..but you resolved..Mr Fire Maker!!!!haha..:
Thank you Marta :) We have been that rute before there was ice, and she jumped over to the stump. Dont know why she didn't this time. ...anyway she was almost dry befor we got back to camp. She has a good fur for being outside and getting dry fast. :)
@@DonVonGun i am glad that she is good..take care..Soren!..with the fire..haha..
Thanks. :) Cant promise anything ;)
@@DonVonGun :D
Excellent video friend very relaxing to watch
Thank you :)
Nice video, beautiful sceenery ,big like!
Thank you :D
Great video. Loved the blow stick! Please forgive my ignorance on this, but I've never made glue before....but what is the purpose of the dung? Can't you make a sort of glue with the spruce sap alone? Again, just trying to learn!
Thank you :) The glue will be to brittle without coal and binding material. The droppings consist of plant material. Usually i heat the shit an crush it, I should have done so when I made the video so people could see what the fibers.
