Hey Ken. Well I built a soup can forge. It was super easy. Seems to work great. Just finished it so I haven't forged anything yet. I'm going to though !! I've always wanted to make a steel cable...
Thanks GI. I only needed one band aid lol. I for a super small flake of obsidian in the knuckle. Bled for 2 days. Thinning is by far the hardest part.
My first arrowhead! I've tried a couple of different materials and some different tools. Ive broken several. All part of the game right? It's been a lot of fun to see a "chunk" turn into something...
Randy have you ever looked into wood gas? It's the fumes that are given off when making charcoal. You put wood in a sealed container, and start a fire around it. A hose from the top leads to the carb...
Hey guys, I took your advice. I ordered a tool kit and 20lbs of material. It should be here tomorrow. I'm so excited!! I got an assortment of tools. Boppers, antlers, pressure flakers and a leg and...
Holy crap Crash those are awesome. I'll take your advise as well. Gotta start somewhere right?
I'm sticking with the hand cannon. I don't poke bears with short sticks or grab their tongues. Lol
Hello people, I want to make a stone knife. I have never tried before. I read the how to, but still have a bunch of questions. What kind of stones work the best or what ones should be avoided? I live...
Welcome from WI. I'm new here also. I've been reading and reading and reading with occasional post breaks, then right back to reading. Soooo much info on here. And I agree Rick might just know...
I get mine from a site called campingsurvival.com. They have many different kinds and colors. They sell 50ft up to 3000ft rolls.
That's super cool. How long does it take to tie one of those up?
My company hires a lot of "temps". We have the same problem with most of them. Like you said anyone can have a bad day or two, but if it's habitual I'd cut your losses. Most guys that want to...
I did some volunteer work years ago in Afghanistan. We built coed schools and outhouses. Most of the villages didn't even have a word for a bathroom. So I started with rule #1: don't sh!t were you...
I was having a meeting outside the house we were building with the home owners. As we stood in the yard looking at the project a branch about 8 feet long and about 8 inches thick fell right between...
I'm jealous. There is no way my wife would let me go out into the woods for three weeks. I might have to "get lost" soon. I'll make sure I sound sincere when I tell her I was lost out there. Gotta...
I rarely wear one. I clip one onto my pack. Just one more set of tools to have with you.
That's awesome!! A little insult with the injury. Has the government looked into pig blood bullets? Lol
Welcome. Cool link. I make "survival" bracelets with a bunch of stuff in them also. I put in 2 small sinkers, 2 small hooks, 20 ft of braided Spiderwire, and 15 ft of snare wire. I use the whistle or...
The truck looks awesome. If you don't mind me asking, what's it cost (ballpark) to convert a $250 pick up into a machine like that ? What kind of man hours went into it?
I agree with Ken. The world would be a better place if more criminals had their "jobs" end like this. Speaking of which, some of these ding dings put so much time and effort into stealing that it...
Holy crap is that beautiful!! You do great work. Anyone would be proud to own that. Thank you for posting.
Just found this post. I have a bunch of birch bark that I have been using on birdhouses. I am so excited to make some of these!! I probably won't post the first couple unless they turn out. Thanks...
Its okay Rick. Real men cry when they get stabbed with needles. And lollipops do make it better. Lol
Hey people. It getting to be that time of year when people stàrt getting ill. I personally do not like to get a flu shots. I got two of them in back to back years. Both times I got sick. So I...
