Ha ha yep they're pretty solid!
Good advice thanks
Great tip guys. Cheers Steve
Great Vid & thanks. I'll return the favour by giving you a sound tip to reduce the wind noise - Position your mobile/camera in a way that is down wind of your camera operator (whilst pointing at you of course), that way their body will help to stop the wind blowing on your microphone.

Thanks for the tip! That's a creative way to combat wind, I'll give it a go for sure 👌
good tip mate, cheers.
Cheers mate! Think I'll get myself a hammer drill. Some of these camping sites are rock hard. Smashed my finger the last time out 🤣

@@abbas431 sorry Abbas, I thought I replied and just noticed i hadn't! Just measured, and my pegs are 8mm in diametre, and the drill bit I use is 6mm. That way the peg still has something to bite into and hold strong 👌 I think a couple of mm less than the width of your pegs is important. Hope that helps 😁
Did you say you got the tent peg kit from Bunnings? Cheers

Yes Colin, they are in a bit of a weird part of Bunnings as what you would think they'd be, but you'll find them in the gardening section mate. If you buy them open the case and make sure the drill bit is inside (some have clear lids on the cases and others don't) cheers 👍

Hey what Nm would you recommend for this? I'm looking at a Impact Driver that has up to 240Nm or a Hammer Drill that is up to 50Nm . The ground I will use it on is like what you are standing on there. Thanks 🙂

Hi Michelle, I would skip the impact driver and go with the hammer drill. It is a more suited tool for this kind of job 👍

Could you still screw them in without using the masonary bit ??? Also what Nm is your drill ?

The nm of my wilwaukee 18v drill is 135 mate. In very hard/rocky ground such as this I don't have much luck just screwing pegs into the ground and that is the reason for the masonry drill bit. Hope that helps.
