      If you can go into the boonies with the clothes on your back and a pocket-knife, and offer a guest a place to sleep, dinnerware, a hot meal, and a hot drink, w/i two to three days - or, less?
      You might be a bushcrafter. ;)

What I really appreciated is that you focused on the project during your video and not endless talking. You guys really worked great as a team. So good to see. No arguments, no fussing, just harmonious working! Loved it. My husband was really impressed. He liked the fishing episode too, as he's a lover of all outdoor stuff. Started when he was about 10 in the woods of Texas and is now 77. Can't do things like he use to, but we sure enjoyed watching you two! Thank you for posting your accomplishments. )

    Just as a heads up, one of these tips could be risky. It's the one regarding flipping the battery in your head lamp. If the lamp doesn't have current protection it could ruin your device or theoretically (unlikely) start a surprise fire.
    It's fairly standard to put a diode to prevent current in the wrong direction, but cheaper/Chinese knockoffs may skimp. You may be able to get away with it just due to how leds function however.

    Hey, thanks for the tips! I wanted to say, remember to not store your batteries inside your headlamp. Petzl warns you against it before a purchase of any headlamp, and it might kill your headlamp leading to more serious drawbacks than having to change a battery. Instead you can keep them separately in its own pouch or case and load a battery before the sun is sets.

    LOVE your opening monolog, completely agree that we have lost our way and need to get back to basics. I grew up in the country and spent the majority of my time in the trees, working with my hands, had a huge garden, pigs, chickens, cows, etc and didn't go to the store until I was 8 I think, we didn't need to, we had a milking cow and all the eggs we could ever eat. Anyway, I know the country folk and heartland people are very wise in this way of life, I hope our city brethren can learn these skills as well. When they pour of the cities looking for food and find a bunch of country people living off the land, they will need to learn quick, as there will NOT be any convivence stores selling cheap processed food, time to get down to business!

    I noticed you used duck tape for a flame. I've never done this, but i often carry bicycle tubing and use small cuttings for burning as it gives a very hot flame. Also the tubing can be used for a wide variety of uses, such as a sling, melting and using for patching holes in boots and such. Also used for belt, repairing a snapt Shoulder strap, cordage, trapping, making crossbow , and a wide range of other uses.
    Thanks for sharing your ideas and skills.

    I like and watch all your videos. Between this demonstrative lecture style and the longer structure builds i am entertained for hours. Like i said i enjoy all your videos but this particular style really was helpful seeing the voice over demonstration on how to do some of these tasks. On the next hunting trip i will be trying some of this. Thanks Mike.

    A note about your section on root cordage, at 8:11... It looks like you've seen how other people make twisted cordage, but you missed an important detail. you need to twist the individual strands one way, then wrap the strands together *the opposite way*. This binds the cord together naturally, the twists balance each other out. The video shows you twisting the individual strands and also wrapping them, but both in the same direction, which won't produce a very good cordage.

  • @pipugwesisaac2496

    With the can tab fishing hook it would probably also be a good idea to round off the inner edges so it doesn’t cut through the string when you pull it.

    Thank you very much for producing this video. While I do have things like waterproof matches and cord in my "bugout" bag, learning how to make "Biblical" pitch was very interesting!! I learned how to make a Dakota firepit yesterday, and that person was very clear to tell people they needed to be careful about surrounding root systems if they are digging it close to a tree to have cover while staying warm and being able to prepare food. He also kept the layers of the ground separated as he removed them to dig so that he could avoid leaving any tracks should someone be trying to track him. I will most definitely check out more of your videos because they teach me things I either don't know or haven't done in a long time!! I'm afraid hard times are "a-coming" and many people feel it. It's not just me! May the peace that surpasses all understanding be with you all in Jesus name!!

    Surely burning gorilla tape is putting toxic fumes into the air. It may be useful in a life-or-death situation, but I’d advise against it in any other case. It’s better to learn how to start fires with friction and easier if you just use a ferro rod. Duct tape/ gorilla tape is great for first aid purposes though, I’ve used it many times to tape up a cut or blister so I could keep working and you don’t have to worry about it sticking to you in those cases because your blood or sweat will eventually make it slip right off so that you can replace it with a more appropriate dressing or bandage.
