Theres something realy satisfying about those long wood shavings...
I showed that particular part to the rest of my family and they loved it just as much as 👌
The chord and charcoal as a chalk line.. Genius
For real though. I wonder who came up with it originally and how they thought of it... We may never know
Still commonly used in carpentry, hard to beat it when you need a marking for a long straight line between two points, fast, easy and precise.
Its usually a spool of thread that you can wind up in a container of coloured powder, so no charcoal anymore. Easy to repair and refill, so it will most likely last a life time of even professional use. Just a great and pretty genius tool.
My guess it’s probably an old technique, hundred if not thousand of years old. I’m leaning towards thousands, but that is just a guess.
Whoever came up with the idea, hit the jackpot
I'd like to see you guys do some more chalenges. See who survives better etc.... may be with fishing. Cooking what you catch. And some shelter building from scratch. Love u r work
Fantastic shots and incredible editing. Deserves more recognition.
Really enjoy your channel, Jager stole the show that good looking boy needs his own channel.
You guys are really expert at producing videos. For example, the way that you blend in shots of your wood work with shots of the dog is perfect. Keep it up, guys.
Great woodworking, those paddles look really good...👍
Nice that you finished it epic video love your channel and content
That was a lot of fun to watch guys;)
Dylan, good luck with the injury and Julius, nice beard ouwe!
All the best guys 🥃🏴
A paring ladder would be a nice addition to your site
I love your videos, you guys don't get enough credit for the fantastic editing and filming. Especially the far away shot 11:51.
Agreed. I especially like the far away shot at 6:00
Well done paddles look great 👍🏻
Julius - I'm glad you apparently lost your shaving equipment. The hair on your face looks good.
I was just about to give the same comment, looks great
Interesting comment. I guess I agree but, seriously? From that whole video, the major thing you took from it was the 'slight hair on his face'... Kinda superficial if you ask me.
@@DanielDavies-StellularNebulla Not superficial at all. When you have watched these guys from the very beginning, you start to feel like they are friends and just like a friend you hadn't seen in a few weeks who changed hair styles, lost weight or started a beard etc that suits them, you would compliment them on it. Not superficial at all.
Great to see you fellas are killing it 👍
Those paddles look amazing! Great work guys and I’m glad Dillon’s hand is getting better!
You guys are incredibly talented! Keep up the good work. Now I have to try this with my bro.
Fantastic movie!
Beard looks good
Nice video guys💕👍💕
Lots of great tips . Always love your guys videos!!!! Learning lots!
Love that folding pullout griddle were do I get 1
That is impressive, guys!
Love your vids...
Fantastic end results! However, it was surprising to see the mask off the axe again while it was primarily being used as a hammer. Don't want to see either get hurt again!
such skilled axe work
Another great video.
Always something very satisfying aout making things yourself even if they are not as good as bought ones.
love it so much
fantastico back on track you guys - awesome as always
The cooking grill at 7:17 is so cool!
Where did you find it? ❤
bittybigq.com/
Nice job, proof is in the trying out 👍
Your talents are inspiring
Skills with a ax. Well
Old world tools are worth their weight in gold
I enjoy all you messing
Nice job guys, looking forward to seeing them in action!
Nice one lads. I've made a few paddles over the years with my axe and knife. Must be 10 years since I made my last one and I still use it on occasion. Great film as usual. I like your films lads because it's not about kit and nearly always more about skills and what you can do with the kit you have 👍. Enjoyed that one fellas. All the best for the New Year 🔥
Dylan - really glad your hand is getting better! - love
Great Paddles, and love your videos!
Smoooooot gefixed jongeee!
Nice vid guys!
10:24 yeah you'd best be going slow in that direction
Hey, Dylan, you need a hand?
At least he gets smart and sticks a block of wood between the paddle and himself
Hi you guys
Loving your channel great videos as usual .watching you using the draw knife makes me think you should make a shave horse for future projects to hold your workpiece.
Great video.My new favorite You Tubers!
Thanks guys
Absolutely stunning and inspiring! Very well done to the both of you, but especially to Dylan as I know how hard it can be to stay engaged with a project you can't actually contribute a huge amount of the work in. So again, well done! Onto the next video!
very nice... i like this video and your comments...when using those carving tools (Y) good result.
That is the ultimate father stick tool 10:40
This is one of your best videos to date. There's no competition element which is good.
You should both invest in a ten pack of thin work gloves. I'm an almost 50yr old carpenter and only started wearing gloves at work since it became mandatory about 10yrs ago.
I'd only not wear gloves doing that kind of work, if for some reason I forgot to take a pair.
That injury looks like it's at that pleasant tingly stage of healing.
That injury will make you stronger.
Happy Yuletide gentlemen
Happy New Year fellas!
You guys make great videos I've been watching since you guys were at 5k sub's keep up the good work!
Julius I predict that your paddle will get dry cracks despite keeping it moist. But I'm still surprised how a non-specialist can do such good carpentry. Of course there are ways of working that would probably have made your life at work easier.
Greetings from Northwest Germany
When I was a wee lad my parents took us to a theme park called timber town showcasing the early years of timber productions in australia.a man giving a demonstration on how to cut a railway sleeper with an adze used a piece of cordage to mark the straight lines ,he rubbed the corsage against a burnt eucalypt tree to cover it in char you took me back to my child hood when you used this method cheers guys and a happy New Year.
Looks so nice! Can’t wait to see them being used.
13:53 that's an interesting way to get a nice straight line while in the woods.
Agreed. Quite genius.
nice work men 👍
Nice work.
Great job
This is art man!!! Julius you did a great job!
Also the trick with the coal is amazing!
what a bloody nice job. happy new year lads
cool video guys! glad to see the both of you together where you love to be! great job. I like watching the building of tools and such. jagr seems to love it just as much as your guys! what a good boy he is.
Awesome video.
Another great video! Love the way you explain the process so it's posible to repeat by yourself.
Keep the good work up!
awesome!
Awesome video
Beard is looking good
The best to both of you and your families.
Happy holidays!!
Apparently youtube has been spamming me with political videos, i'm finding a bundle of your guy's content that I've missed
The paddles came out really nice good job.
Very cool project! Well done julius it takes a lot of hours carving these paddles and they turned out very nice! Keep doing these videos i love watching everyone of them! Greeting from switzerland
nice job!
Great stuff guys,, it's like the one hand challenge, but for real, Dylan,,, ha ha
Keep up the good work boys,, all the best for the New Year,,,
Wow that was very impressive good Lord
nice vid guys
Sanding and applying some oil. Wouldn't that support the final result?
Besides that, great vid and happy new year to you guys including Jäger
Man those are some great looking paddles, you should be proud of them. Enjoy your videos, stay safe. Ray,Oklahoma
Im genuinely impressed with the peddels. Also nice beard Julius, are you going to give Dilan a run for his money in the future?
far future maybe..... ;)
cheers. dylan
that wood smellt good all the way from new zealand
Great content guys love seeing the carving episodes and julius nice start to a manly beard there your starting to look like a real woodsman lol
Very enjoyable video. I like that bushcraft vice/ work bench you made to hold the paddle. Also Julius is very good at the detail work with the axe. Both paddles look very nice. How long did it take to make the paddle once you had the log split?
Glad to see your hand is healing good brother, Do you think the injurry will restrict motion after it is fully healed? i hope not.
Just protect your Crown Jewels from the Draw Blade Huh sweetheart. Otherwise ....yet again an educational video. Absolutely loved it
Thank so much for liking my comment on 2 vids back
I loved this video, it was so interesting. I'm glad Dylan's hand healed up well. How old is Jäger?
Need more vids!
I attempted a dug out canoe 2 years ago. I put 8 months work into it ( every Saturday ) it ended up failing. I would suggest doing all the research you can and to be careful not to let the wood check.
ah thats too bad! was it salvageable ?
@@SmoothGefixt it had to many cracks in it after it dried . It is no longer sea Worthy.
Very informative, thanks, how many inches should a drawknife for canoe paddle making be, better to go for 8" or 10"?
julius with a beird just looks so unfamiliar
prachtig om te zien weer, welke crooked knife gebruik je?
I’m sorry I misspelled things, I love you guys and meant no disrespect!
who what where?
Smooth Gefixt someone said I misspelled Jager again and I think I may have misspelled Dylan’s name (Dillon). I have a good excuse lol I was on a bad car accident and broke my back along with concussion. Just laying around watching TH-cam while medicated. Please forgive my mistakes, I love you
The cooking grate, Where did you get it? Can We get a link? Maybe a amazon link so you can get a bump
Nice videos!!! How are you going to dry the paddles???
Just pile them and then they will dry slowly
Lanky man has a beard
can you make the bows agin you said you would build them
Didntndylan "hurt" his hand in the hypothermia challenge? I guess at least u had some practice for this outting hahaha great video brothers
Julius! Love the beard and that jacket with the gloves! You used to look so, well, a bit... sorry, but geeky? You look like a movie star in this video - like Che Guevara goes camping as styled by Dolce & Gabbana. Poor Grumpy Dylan is looking more and more like a hobo though.
the wood may crack from drying too fast because you removed the bark
Noice
Dylan, what is the grill at 7:13? It looks ideal. Can you send me a link if possible please.
Great video as always lads :)
Its called the BittyBigQ grill.
We got one sent over to us to use and review, we just started using it and so far it seems solid, functional and practical to use. i wouldnt call it very lightweight/small but those are all personal opinions. (bit more on it in our latest gear vid)
@@SmoothGefixt Thanks very much. I just had a quick look there and it seems a bit pricey as an import, but maybe it'll be cheaper once UK distributors get hold of it.
At the moment I just use old tent pegs balanced on rocks to do the job, but they're not great like! Thanks again.
All the best.
Ah hold on, actually it's quite a reasonable price, I was looking at it in Canadian Dollars there thinking it was US$. Eejit...
nice one! Im in contact with the guy behind them about order links,, ill keep you posted!
For all that splitting you should have made a wooden hammer first.
Makes it much easier.
Good point! We have a wooden baton now at camp
Do you have a link to that folding grill thing please?
BittyBigQ grill should find it for you;)
we got one send over to us to test out, which we are in the process off! ;)
forgot to say there's a bit more on it in our latest gear video;)
@@SmoothGefixt next time I've got a full hour and a half to sit down and watch it in one go. Fuggit I might watch it soon tonight
hehe dont have to watch the whole thing! Its in the cooking equipment part, and julius put little category links in the description so you can skip to the part you want;)
anyways, im in contact with the guy behind the grill so ill keep you posted on a link;)
I think Dillon is right about grabbing an insert from an old grill . I do most of my outdoor cooking on a Kelly kettle hobo stove. Big open fires use up way more firewood.
You've probably seen Alfie Aesthetics small grate on tent pegs setup. Or set it over a Dakota fire pit🔥
Next episode Dylan chops his other arm off.
'Tis but a scratch' hehe
First
On another axe safety note; if you fit a leather axe mask before using the back to pound in splitting wedges then you remove the possibility of an axe cut like Dylans. In this video we see Julius repeatedly swinging an exposed blade towards his own face - That is not going to end well! Did we not learn anything this month? Please be safe!
During the making of this vid, Julius tried keeping the sheath on. he found that it would come off after 2/3 good hammer strikes so he gave up.
i imagine a little paracord lace over the original strap would go a long way on that, and i will do this in the future!! (learned the hard way!)
Thanks for taking the time to comment and to share your thoughts!! :)
Cheers. Dylan
