    I like how casually you mention that the spindle can also be used for vampires, most "survival experts" don't even bother to mention them

    Outstanding as always, Sir. Your chair is a luxury version of the one I made a few months back on a short camp in some local woodland, mine was just a triangle of 3 sticks lashed together and leaned against a tree, with a folded German army sleeping mat (the ones that fold into a rectangle about 15 x 12 in) cushioning my backside, balanced on the lower crossbar. Not as comfortable as yours but still better than sitting on the ground. The square/shear lashings I learned 4 decades ago as a Boy Scout are invaluable for this type of construction, as we were not taught these in my time in the British Army.

For example: P3 allows one to know more through study and practice, hopefully enough to get to P7. This video is a great way to hit that P3.

    2:48 The dig stick you’re making is called an o’o in the Hawaiian language. It is usually 5’-7’ and made from a variety of hardwoods found in Hawai’i like wiliwili, koa, ‘iliahi (Hawaiian sandalwood), kukui (Hawaiian candlenut) and was so durable, due to fire hardening and keeping it oiled to prevent boring insects and humidity, that it was passed down from one generation to the next. That simple tool, the dig stick or o’o’, kept an entire race fed and flourished for 1000 to 1700 years.

    Good morning brother ☕️ enjoying the episode with the family. The elementary or basics are so essential, and your method of teaching is clear and concise for all ages and skill levels. I really dig the use of the braided agave cordage, many stick to paracord and are hesitant to step outside of that “survival gear box”, but I appreciate how it emulates what you can do with a natural cordage. I also appreciate the bow saw demo - buck saws are great, but in an emergency situation it’s less calories and effort over a bushcrafting buck saw. Thank you for all you do to teach and share, and motivate fellow content creators. - Scottie, TLBSS&B California, USA 🇺🇸
