Well I am a Pc guy. although I do all my own auto mechanics, Ac/heating work, go fishing and walking as often as possible. so my body has the endurance, the hands just dont last. they shred up like a...

so again I failed horribly.... I believe next time I try I am going to go bow-drill.

Thanks TXyakr, yes I agree that the tinder bundle is very important aswell, but for now my main concern is getting the coal. As i said I can get smoke, but it takes me about 20 minutes to get my fire...

Thanks for the advice, I tried again last night, for about 2 hours. I got a whole bunch of smoke but no ember. I think I might have to go Bow-drill first. In reply to some doubts yes I used dry dead...

I remember when I first looked on youtube and saw everyone making friction fire in like 4 seconds. I assumed(that's right I'm the ***) that it was so simple. the first time I tried I was with some...

so thats how Obama got elected!

Thats why I love Texas, Hire and Fire at will state. you fail to show up to work 3 days and you are automatically fired! :-D

thanks Pete and hunter. Sorry to hear about your woes troubles and pressures Deadleaf. I have been through my fair share of horrible situations....Lucky for me my job requires little to no brain...

Thank you all for the information! you are all correct, I decided(my GF nearly killed me for this) to incorporate Wilderness survival techniques into my everyday life. I sold my electric stove and...

I've been a ghost on here recently work has picked up greatly, I am wondering how do you all deal with work and survival? since work is keeping me at about 60 hours plus a week time to go play in the...

hahahaha I'm going to have to re-try this after payday!

Yeah I know hayshaker, It really blows that I cant keep grapes alive here :-\

You sir have a worker right here :-P

NO COMMENT!!!



My tastes are somewhat subjective. I tried "crappy" cheap wine my whole life then had a bottle of the "good stuff" and it was horrible! So I guess experimentation is called for?...

you know, I never gave much thought to Jailhouse! Your right about it. Ive seen it made with cocktail-fruit and bread! I need to think a bit more on it. Maybe I'll set up some kind of mini-experiment?

that sounds pretty cool. so If i were to "trail-blaze" an area on a forest land i could grow along the trail. That is a great Idea.

I know how to make wine in the kitchen. Moonshine isnt much more complicated. I know how to do this in a place where all the ingredients are measured out and ready!
My problem is how to make it in...

how do you make "wild alcohol"? :wine:

Sounds TASTY

I understand your fear. I used to have the same one when it came to raw fish. This is the Fuma-zushi Recipe:
Clean and scale your fish
Salt and cover. Leave them "salting" for 3 months
Wash them...

welcome fotomaker57 enjoy the site...I do! :-P

Simple solution to that. I live next to the US/Mexican border and when the people cross and want to hide their valuables they UN-stitch a Beanie baby and fill it up with beans and valuables dogs...

Enigma, now that you bring up Bear Grylls. Has anyone seen the episode where he eats that mountain trout raw? Im wondering what fish is "safe" to eat raw? I'd really like to know because I LOVE...
