Along with a double width Sol heat sheets mylar blanket and cordage.. definitely good to carry a heavy Mill large trash bag.. fill it full of leaf debris and make a bros bed to get you off the ground in insulate you
TIP: .. I take one of expired gift cards or those plastic sample credit cards you get in the mail and I wrap it with orange duct tape.. it's amazing how much duct tape you can wrap and it still stays nice and flat and lightweight.. I like orange the duct tape not just for repairs but you can use it as a flagging tape Stick it to trees and branches to mark your way so you don't get lost.. the compass I like to put in my kits is the brunton wrist compass.. it has a rotating bezel and degree marks and is much much better than a little button compasses
Kudos for actually trying out the tin contents 👍 Instead of the wire saw and card tool make room for the Victorinox Walker,it has a decent saw and blade.
You can survive on fire and water . Keychain light and a razor would be next . You can do it with an Altoid Smalls tin . Those produce bags at the grocery store will hold water and they fit if you fold them and roll them up .. I use waterproof matches they are cheap . Add a ferro rod if you want . Aqua tabs too of course
@@procaliberhq cool , you'll be one of only about 3 other guys that did an overnight with just the things inside the tin .. I made the above comment because all altoid survival kit videos have people in the comments saying an Altoid tin isn't enough to survive when really you just need fire and water .
Dang good looking shelter! A couple things I keep in my altoids tin, I got a few straws stuffed with cotton balls and sealed on both ends, I cut them down to fit in the tin of course, make really good water proof tender bundles. Also some crayons, because they burn almost like a candle. I would throw that wire saw over the hill lol looked like you could have used that card thing to cut it faster than it did. Great video!!
Was wondering if he had saw on his multitool? Or was that purposely not being used to only test the Altoids kit alone? I always make sure my multitool has a wood saw on it! 😉 One of my multitools is a Victorinox RangerGrip 58 Hunter, which has a big saw on it!
Most all cans are lined with a thin type of plastic. If you had to do it a couple times it wouldn't hurt but long term exposure could cause health problems. Plus I just wanted to try something different haha
Put metal duct work tape on one side of the foil to make it more durable. Just make sure the metal duct work tape side is the fireside of your homemade container.
I personally use a slightly larger stainless steel or titanium can which allows me to boil water inside of it. It still fits nicely into a pocket and the amount of gear you hold inside can keep you alive for weeks if need be
Good thinking on the quick improvised spoon! Nice video, thanks for sharing. I just found your channel, nice job. As a side note on my channel, I put up a video called 'pocket hiking kit perfection' which is a little bit bigger than a standard altoids tin but can carry more resources. If you ever get a chance,maybe check it out for ideas on what you could do with a little bigger tin that you could still carry on you if you want a bit more resources than an altoids tin can carry. Anyway thanks for sharing.
So cool. I'm planning on giving a survival tin to close ones getting into survivalism. I'll include the basics and a small list with ideas on how to upgrade the kit. :)
HINT : .. I always put in my kit a Swiss army SD mini keychain knife.. blade... Fingernail file with screwdriver tip (can be used to file more than just nails.. also screwdriver tip works well on standard screws in and a pinch Phillips head screws).. one of the world's best scissors.. a fantastic tweezers.. and a toothpick.... All of this in a tiny little keychain knife you can get on sale for $10... My dad gave me my first victorinox SD keychain knife back in 1979 and I have had them on my keychains ever since
Well, if all else fails, you actually could boil the water in the altoids tin, even tho that's as much of a pain in the backside as boiling it in the the foil. But, it beats not having anything.
HINT :..on exterior on Altoids tin attach a SOL 'HEAT SHEETS " double with mylar blanket..4.6×7ft with ranger bands ...30ft #95 Paracord .wrapped around ...use tiny pebbles in corners of mylar blanket to attach Paracord ..make sobe wooden stakes ....SHELTER !
Mainly because I wanted to show an example of how to utilize the aluminum foil. But also because most modern cans have this plastic type lining that can melt into your food.
They are first tactical pants www.firsttactical.com/collections/pants-men/products/mens-v2-tactical-pants-kodiak-brown Ive been wearing and abusing these things for atleast 6 months and had no issue. Just got another pair in kodiak brown
@@procaliberhq Did it? Survival is about conserving energy--not expending energy. As stated in the video, that was a lot of work. It took a lot of time. Normally, I would cut something that small with my knife or a hatchet. Soft, green wood like that cuts easily with a knife or hatchet, but not so well with a saw. I understand you were limited to what was in the tin. If used efficiently, you could have done that job with the saw in 1/3 of the time, and 2/3 of the effort.
@@procaliberhq Sure. In fairness, I will point out that many people--even after watching your video--would not be able to do what you did with such ease. That is hard, but looked fairly easy. It takes a lot of knowledge and practice. There are always unexpected issues.

Great to see someone actually taking one of these tins out and testing it. The tin foil was ingenious.
Thank ya! I got a few other survival tin kits I'm going to be testing out and another diy tin kit build planned as well.
Yup

Smart 🤗❤❤
Wrap DuckTape round Tin..gives more room in Tin..
Enjoyed that one, love seeing stuff in action- GIVEAWAY !
Appreciate the feedback!
Fellow TH-camr here ! You got a new sub my man
Glad to have ya! I just subbed to you as well mate
@@procaliberhq Thanks my man ! Now we gotta keep making nononsense videos !
Great video
GIVEAWAY
Brilliant I actually look forward to seeing your videos
Really appreciate it, means a lot!
Yup, that is as we say up North, Proper. 👍
Nice to see real down and dirty skills instead of a designer list of gear :-D
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Kudos for actually trying out the tin contents 👍
Instead of the wire saw and card tool make room for the Victorinox Walker,it has a decent saw and blade.
I'll check that out asap
@@procaliberhqwouldn't be as fun to use a knife or multi tool . Us TH-camrs like our Altoid kits to be cheap and a little bit hood
The SAK saws are for show. They are too small for anything the size of that little sapling.
A better saw is needed.

Thanks man. I def need to try the straw tinder idea.
Would cigarette butts work as tinder?
@@onmyway7363 I don't smoke but they should burn but probably wouldn't be the most ideal tinder.

@@onmyway7363 not ideal but should work
You make a bow saw that white sauce be a lot easier cuz it's like
Why didn't you just heat the chillie beans in the tin ?

Sounds like a great idea! I've got a larger tin kit and mess tin kit put together for some future videos.
You are awesome, I hope you have or find a wife as cool as you to make these awesome videos with!!!
Thank you very much and I do have a long term girlfriend

You can make an fork with 3 large coated paper clips, even 2 will make you something
I've never thought about including paperclips in a kit like this. Thanks for the comment!
@@procaliberhq I'm sure you could think of more uses for paper clips than I can
Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing!
Appreciate it my man!
Great video. Cool shelter
Thank ya!

Why not heat up the chili within the can?
Mainly because I wanted to show an example of how to utilize the aluminum foil. But also because most modern cans have this plastic type lining that can melt into your food.
👍
New survival tin videos will be coming soon!
🙂@@procaliberhq
Why are people saying giveaway, haven't finished your cool video yet haha
Hot sauce for sure
I've got about 15 different bottles of hot sauce in my fridge at all times haha
Shoulda cooked your beans in the can
I'll have to try that next time
Hey what pants are those ?

And there it is 👍
Yes sirrrr!
Thanks. GIVEAWAY
Can't see what you are saying. Subtitles?
I have them turned on but they havnt had Time to finish processing. Probably will be another hour or 2 before they are live
@@procaliberhq not a problem. I will watch it again in a few hours. Thanks Bud.
