Great lightweight shelter project for backpackers.

[tonester]

awesome site gray wolf. im gonna try some of those projects for sure.

[crashdive123]

Oh great! There goes the rest of my spare time.;)

[Woodland]

Yea, that is a great site.

[tim]

cool thinks

[Dave Johns]

Well, there goes my weekend. Awesome site! I am doing a short hike/camp next weekend, I am gonna try the flat-pack stove, see how it works.

[Runs With Beer]

Very Cool site, Gona have to try some of those projects.

[Gray Wolf]

I just got done making the Berry Picker, as a present for a neighbor who had helped me out with another project. This was a very simple project, that looks great, and seems very sturdy. I hope it works well.

http://www.bushcraftuk.com/index.php/DIY/Berry-Picker.html

[Runs With Beer]

Do yuo have berrys there?

[Rick]

Always great posts, GW. Thanks!

[Runs With Beer]

This is a great site I put it on my Fav. list. I realy like the fish trap, Will have to try that one.

[Gray Wolf]

Sarge or Rick, this should be made a sticky so it's easy to find for those that are into "Making Stuff".

[Rick]

Consider it done!

[Gray Wolf]

Thank you, I hope the members old and new take some private time and make some of these projects. I've been making different ones for Christmas presents. Any of them make great personal gifts.

[Bladesypher]

Great site. I think I might have stumbled upon it before, but unfortunately missed the DIY section. ^_^

[wild kid]

I've have been making knives and would like tips on how to do it better:)

[flandersander]

Could you be a little more specific on what you're doing and how you're doing it? What type of knife? That sort of thing. Your question is really general, if you want a specific answer, you'll need to ask a specific question. But there are quite a few members that make knives and have all the info you'll need.

[wild kid]

I'm making stone knives by hand the chipping and flaking.

[wild kid]

Any tips at all?

[palm stalker]

save your money (just a tip)

[Sarge47]

Any tips at all?
1st, your thread has been moved to the appropriate Forum & thread that you need to study. We have "Flint-knappers here who have posted a lot in this forum on what you ask. Study & you shall be rewarded!:cool: (So saying the Wise old Zen-Survival Master wraps himself in his robes, steps back, there's a large puff of smoke, then he re-appears, coughing.) "Hack! Hack!" Okay, who's smoking?:confused::eek::D:cool:

[Gray Wolf]

1st, your thread has been moved to the appropriate Forum

Sarge why did my sticky of "Making things (Making Tools, Knives, Nets & More, with a sub-section of Making Your Own Outdoor Gear"), get moved to the " Survival Food: Foraging, Hunting, Fishing, and Trapping" Forum??? It does belong in the "Making Stuff" Forum, where it has been.
Thanks

I switched it Gray Wolf, sorry for the delay.:o

[Gray Wolf]

Thank you oh great one... :D

[wild kid]

Any ansers to my question?:confused:

[Gray Wolf]

I used the SEARCH BUTTON (like Sarge hinted to you) Search: Key Word(s): knapping , and low and behold there are 2 pages of info, tips and pictures! The SEARCH BUTTON is at the top of each page, nestled between "New Posts" and "Quick Links".

Enjoyed checking out the "The Three-Stick Roycroft Pack Frame."

I've made a number of pack frames over the years using one of my grandfather's as a model. Not too hard to make and very comfortable:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/pjjgirard/Tools%20and%20Camping%20Gear/DSC01998.jpg

Your back only comes in contact with the rawhide lace, so no sore spots, and in hot weather you don't end up with your back soaked with sweat.

[skunkkiller]

I made the three stick pack frame it worked every nice I also made a canvas pack for it. I did awalk in camp at the end of oct. last year .I rolled all my gear in my diamond fly and strapped it to the frame leaving the pack empty when I got to camp I unstrapped the diamond fly unrolled it and every thing is at hand when camp was set up the pack was empty and ready for a trek in to the woods no digging in the pack to find something

[Gray Wolf]

RBB, that's a fine looking pack frame.

[Gray Wolf]

I added 2 TARP-TENT Project Projects (Post #1)

[rebel]

Very nice sticky w/lots of good info. I look forward to making some of these things.

*Thanks Grey Wolf.

[canid]

well i know i'm slow about getting things done, but i'm working on a couple of things right now for pictorials, though not all on this list.

firstly, i'm making a pretty simple fletching jig.

next, and the reason for the fletching jig, i'm making a matched set of hardwood sucker arrow shafts. these include pitch and sinew mounted obsidian points, self knocks and turkey wing feather fletchings.

if i can get ahold of the canvas; i'm doing a sort of hybrid sweat house, using a canvas skin over tipi-frame lodge, and a cast iron pot belly sauna stove. i've been on the lookout for a suitable stove, and lo and behod, one was given to me the day before yesterday.

i'll be finishing a couple bows soon, so i'll show how i make my fishing line bow strings, including carribou fur silencers and coat-button thread serving.

for extended outdoors trips, i would like to demonstrate smudging, both body and clothing/bedding, with local plants. for example; we have an abundance of invasive eucalyptus around here witch i find is great at minimizing body odor. juniper and cedar are also great.

i wish the weather where on my side this winter, as i've not been getting in much mushroom hunting since i got my new camera.

Very nice work on the pack frame, How long did it take you to make that?

[canid]

here is the simple fletching jig i've made, and the proccess of fletching arrows with it. the jig could even be made expediently in the feild, by using a neatly split wood.

at the top of the jig, where the twp pieces meet, the edges are beveled to 45 degrees, to allow clearance for the fletching feather's spine. all that is requires further is two lengths of cordage and some wedges of wood, bone, antler, or as in the images, whatever happens to be handy.

[canid]

last picture:

[crashdive123]

Great work Canid. Thanks for the pics.

[Runs With Beer]

Looks to me like you dont need a jig,LOL One arrow is left hand and one is right hand?

[canid]

yep. the turkey feathers i buy come in pairs, invariably one left and one right.

if i buy 4 black and 2 olive, i end up with two arrows with different irrientations. as long as the spine is appropriate and they fly true, it dosen't bother me enough to match the set to all one wing.

I agree about them flying true, A friend of mine is a turkey hunt guide down here, And brings me Several sets of wings a year and I use both left and right, And they work the same to me.

Hey Canid, once registered I can see the pics. Great work!

[crashdive123]

WgS - Since you've gone to all of the trouble to register, why not head over to the Introduction section and tell us a bit about yourself. Thanks.

[napoleon_bonaparte]

there is a great website called native american tech. ( www.nativetech.org) Its the basic for artcraft to clothes making and other great resources from native americans. I love studying about indian bushcraft because they are the best in wilderness survival and art. Basically, survival is a form of art. There is also inquiry (www.inquiry.net), another site. It concentrates in bushcraft art, navigation, games, food, shelters, trapping and snaring and other skills. Its between the westerners and indians activities. If you can help me with other great websites that is similar, which would be much appreciated.

[gryffynklm]

Thanks Gray Wolf, That is an excellent resource. I will be experimenting with some of the stove projects.

[whitewater4x4]

I'm curious , I looked at the site and didn't see anything in it about making bows or sling shots . I've heard of a device called a stone bow and am looking for a site that details the construction of such a device . I've read that Fredrick Remington (the painter in the 1800s) described stone bows in his travels among the native american tribes . He reported that they took up to fox size game at about 90 yards . The bow shoots small stones or marbles instead of arrows . I believe the clay marbles would be much easier to make than an arrow and if you are foraging you would be more likely to be bagging small game than large game .

I would like it to be known that this list is now my challenge. I will at least attempt to build of these. Can't say I will actually do it 100 percent perfect but I will try.

[RobinD69]

well here goes

[Kudos]

It's sad but so few people make things anymore.
In my time I have worked with Stone, Metal, Wood and plastics. Designed and build Large radio Controlled Aircraft, repaired and modified Cars, rebuilt Motorcycles from the bare frame, built Structures and Sheds, made Fishing Poles and flies and a multitude of things.
But, these days most seem to want to buy ready made.
Very few seem to know how to Knit, darn and repair clothes or any of the older skills.
Times have changed and so many skills have been lost. Most younger people would much rather play on their computer or be on their cell phone.
As a boy I spent many happy hours fishing and camping on a river island. I would Kayak with my friends and learned so much about wildlife.
But sadly those times are gone for most and people hate to be in a bad reception area.
Is there anything we can do to turn this around, to inspire folks to make things for themselves and acquire new skills?
Imagine a world where nobody makes anything anymore and does not know how to repair anything. They will be exploited by those who can.
Case in point, a few weeks ago I met a Guy who told me he was charged $50 to have a wire re-soldered on his electric guitar. It was just a very simple re-soldering job...nothing special !

[Kudos]

I'm just interested and looking for ideas.
What is the most unusual and useful item you have made?

[randyt]

I've been involved in and have built several log cabins. Those have been the most useful things I have made. Lived in a couple of them for a spell myself and helped others build their's to live in.

I've made some items from Oetzi the Icemans kit.

Oetzi was found with an intact extremely well preserved (4 piece) Bearskin Cap. I copied the measurement of the main horizontal piece, which was 52cm x 7.5. I made mine a tad longer, with an extra black fur piece at the front (My head is bigger than 52cm). the other pieces were a bit hit and miss, as the measurements and explanation of the shapes were quite open to interpretation i.e.: 'wedge' shape and 'pointed oval' shape.

here's a knife I prepped (shaped, ground and drilled holes for the handle) for a young friend of mine to heat treat and also put a decent front cutting edge on for me.

Thanks very much Roel, I'm glad you like it. I see you're Dutch. I like the Dutch, very hospitable people. :-)

I remember back in 1988, when I drove an old Bedford van all over Europe, with my brother and 2 other mates. What a relief it was to cross the border and speak English for once, without getting filthy stares. We'd spent some time in France previously, visiting Normandy (Omaha Beach) and all the other wartime bunkers, Beaches and harbours etc, then Paris. The French were downright rude to us, as they thought we were English. Once we made it into Holland the young people were quite happy, to speak English to us. Those were the days before most European countries had mandatory English lessons in schools.

I still remember visiting Arnhem and the famous Bridge (A Bridge Too Far movie) over the Rhine.

An awesome country to visit.

The shelter is similar what is called a "Wikiup or Wigwam" here.....

This one was put up at a re-enactment camp, but used canvas covers.
Grass mats, bark, and hides were more traditional.

@Hunter, we called it a Mesolithic hut. Archaeologists found marks in de ground who were most likely from a shelter, 8500 years old. And we used those marks to build our hut.

Very cool. What are the polished stones you are using, and also, how the hell did you get holes in them? It took me a week to drill a single hole into a Texas flint spearpoint once. (the one and only time I bothered to try it, I even used a diamond tipped drill and modern tools.)

[Roel]

You could use a hot nail... it's amber...:D
But I prefer a small flint drill. More authentic you see.

That is some amazing stuff. You and your wife are very talented.

Being older, do like the bigger pic's as is...Also lazy, so like just looking at them.

Thumbnails need to be clicked...., than "back" on the page,... to get back, and some times have to re-load the thread.

Thanks for the format change.

Simply out standing.......and part of the fun.
Humans haven't changed much over the thousands of years......Still want and need bling.

One of my favorites....Take a guess what it made from.

Raccoons don't have beaks. Sheeesh. You're thinkin' about Woodpecker.

Well, this is my favorite stone knife with quill work sheath....I didn't make them...but most likely the most I have spent on any knife.....LOL

[Roel]

Looks nice, you tanned the hides your self?

[hunter63]

No......did shoot the animals though.....

Did a few deer hides but made in to raw hide......

[Roel]

What did you do with the raw hides...?

[hunter63]

What did you do with the raw hides...?

Still two full hides, rolled up in the rafters of the garage....was gonna cut in strips and make some canoe chairs....snow shoe style.
