Dude with you on this journey , cheers.
Great video Great tinderbox 💪
A lovely day in the woods , nothing better . Your tinder box is great . I love it . The fire bow machine is clever alright . Im looking forward to a day in august to get out and bow drill . I saw swallows flying high today. Thst means a bit of fine weather ahead . Are you going to do a one night survival edit for us ?
Is this called an atleattle?
spot on i was wondering what it was called, nice one!
atlatl for the launcher, i think there are a ton of modifications that could be made to it mine just kinda used tapered shaft tech.👍
Hello man . You'll never beat a sheep. Fun times
Playing in the woods with the other kids, soon learnt I was rubbish at throwing anything. When a bit older and working for the local nursery in the school holidays collecting and sorting daffy bulbs, there was always a lot of rock throwing going on and this just reinforced how bad my throwing arm was. I switched to rubber band propulsion and got pretty good at making and shooting catys. Always carry one but don`t think it has ever appeared in my vids, will have to remedy that. It`s been done to death but can do my version I guess. Defiantly give the sheep something to think about!
rock throwing must come hand in hand with daffy bulb grading! and i still have a bag of elastic bands from picking daffys from 10 years ago, id like to see your rubber band propulsion skills... things developed in youth can often be revisited and reworked. i got a small Oppenheimer feeling when i released this video.. i just hope it doesnt lead to mass destruction. stay young my good friend 👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman HaHa! Oppenheimer complex. Kind of know what you mean though as don`t like killing things either. Making WoMD is a dangerous first step. Showing others how to do it.....oh dear. 👍
😂😂 ace video mate im guna make myself one of them👍👍
it took 5 mins to make! i just hope it isnt a weapon of mass destruction! thanks bud 👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman 🤣🤣 was that defo your 1st throw coz u nailed it👍
@@Borkyswildcampingadventures first attempt at a distance throw yes, it surprised me also, but i was area schools champ for javelin 😂
@@badgerandthewoodsman nice one😁💪👌👍
@@Borkyswildcampingadventures also on the list is slingshot david goliath type and simple catapult but the dream of dreams is a trebuchet! maybe oneday :)
Do like that part of the woods, Hazel stands give me a homely feeling for some reason. Grew up playing in hazel coppice, maybe it`s that. 👍
It would be the perfect hideaway to make a den in as a child So many options definitely took the sting out of the heat 👍
Great video👍
New sub here I feel your pain… great attempt .. a bunch of us over on @onenightsurvival done the bow drill challenge 😂😂 If your up for a challenge check us out 😂😂
Music Credits: Me whistling Guns and Roses - Patience, and some guy called Johnny Flynn who is also kinda awesome 🤘
New sub here
My heart bleeds for you brother . Four hours is one quarter of the way
So close🙂👍🏻
Thanks, Jamie. It really isn’t easy is it? But I’m not gonna give in! 👍
Good try, it`s a tricky skill to master. Have managed it a couple of times in perfect conditions but you have to devout hours and hours to the skill to master it. Does not make for very interesting video`s unless there is a fire at the end. 😄👍
I’m gonna try testing different woods with a battery powered drill,, watching the video back several times I’ve seen a few things that can be improved. I’ve got about six hours of footage over the last three days and you’re right it’s kind of boring.👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman Sorry if I was a bit harsh, but trying to help. People are pretty fickle, they are not going to be interested in all the failures you will have to go through, they will just want to know what works and how they can shorten their learning curve, all wrapped up in a human story with good scenery. Am learning and researching this stuff because getting fed up with loosing 60-70% of my viewers in less than the first minute. I have been guilty of making the videos I want to make rather than the ones my viewers want to watch.
I wanted it to be a journey. I know this is a long process and I don’t want to appear like I’ve cheated it. I agree, it would’ve got a lot more views if I had wrapped the day into a video, But I do have a problem editing 4K. And can’t dress things up as much as I would like I will drop most of the 4K footage start using 1080p. Just so I can combine clips/effects together without waiting five hours for processing. Looking like we got a few nice days ahead, will you be tracking out?
@@badgerandthewoodsman Yes, hope to get out. My computer will not handle 4k either, so do all my stuff in 1080p. I understand it is hard to tell the difference unless watched with a massive high definition tv screen, but no expert. 😄
I wonder if the underside of the mat gets hot enough to ignite something under it. Like a match or dry leafe maybe
it was hot enough to slightly warp my aluminium sheets, my feeling is it would make a charcole with twigs and sticks i dont know if there is enough air to cause ignition, i shall try it! 👍
This is actually relaxing, Bob Ross vibes, new subscriber, looking forward to picking up some tips
Thank you so much for subscribing I don’t know this Bob Ross but I’m guessing that I’d like him, everyone needs a bit of chill. ✌️
Love this, i need abit of kit like this, great fire making skills👍
Thanks borky! I really appreciate the feedback, take care bud 👍
Good bit of cooking kit there😁
That’s a really nice place! Excellent video!
Thank you so much! It’s a beautiful bit of countryside 👍
Keep it real and in your world be safe and content , thanx.
Right on BatW. A nice evening and lovely morning. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks bud, it was needed! 👍

dont know why the link is huge but i cant fault this little headlamp. the floodlight plugged in external battery is incredibly bright and lights a large area
Being hungry makes all your food taste better. Being out in nature and being hungry is an experience unto itself. Looked great BatW. Thank you for sharing.
Yeah, it was my breakfast lunch and tea, it didn’t touch the sides!
Some interesting skills there Bat, will have to look at cotton buds in a different way going forwards, and shinny leaves! 🤯
Cotton and paper ear has made it into my tinder box! Thanks for commenting my friend 👍
Right on, beautiful area there BatW. Thanks for sharing it.
Right on man! The kinship between a man and a good stick is a very serious ordeal for sure. My staff has seen me through many experiences out in the woods. My son asked me why I put feathers on my staff? I told him you need feathers to fly. You need feathers to fly BatW. Thank you so much for the honorable mention. I look forward to seeing how your Swiss Army Stick develops. All the best from Nova Scotia BatW. See you on your next one.
I have the Ohuhu branded version of that stove and have had decent luck with it. Looks like yours is working great man.
great woodland thanks...
Nice spot you have there, potential for all sorts of camps. Particularly like the look of those alder roots, would be quickly building a debris shelter under one of them.
Yea that’s where I spent my first night. I agree I would like to make something natural something a bit like you do but I’m not sure I’ve got the skills but the main problem at the moment is nets, alder being in the wetland means there is thousands of the buggers👍
Gnats
@@badgerandthewoodsman nets for knats😂
I draw the line at stockings.. but I have got a bit of garden insect netting conveniently 3 x 3m. Food for Thought wonder if I could just swap with the tarp as long as it’s not gonna rain.👍👍
On the allotment I used to use Enviromesh Quite expensive but long lasting and nothing is getting through it would be ideal probably even block the wind
I have one of these. which I got 10 years ago. It works fine and is very compact but biggest issue is trying to assemble the thing or pack it up again.
yes i get that with assembly, its not the best for stopping on a hike for a quick cuppa. i just love the efficiency of the wood burn, it wastes hardly any heat and all that's left is a very fine powdered ash, also one of my fastest for a boil time, thanks for commenting!... BatW
A knife handle 🤔👍🏻
I'm same I've seen 1 snake in the wild in 42 years👍🏻
lol i remember when i was a boy on the news some other boy ran over an adder with his bike and it bit him, im sure he was ok. But it created a panic with people about riding bikes through grassy areas... stupid when u think we only seen one in all these years, thanks for feedback as always my friend
got same set up from temu... the wood burner a windbreaker, worked up £6.42 for both on one of those dayly offers, i could not say no to it lol. i use a folded strip of extra thick kitchen tin foil to control air flow at the bottom of the burner... i keep 3 feet of it folded in the windbreaker, comes handy for a lot of things.
Brilliant idea 👍🏻
never done this before but its a pretty cool tip!
It's a bit wet hare to
Not a bad life ,good to see you again , cheers
Not a bad little stove. I coppied your idea last year with the square folding stove with a makeshift top and cans for a chimney. Im hoping i can grab a proper stove off temu on the cheap. £70 is lowest so far but cant justify the cost just yet. Finally getting out to my new location tomorrow cant wait. All the best
That square Woodburner is still my most rated and I have still got it, tbh I don’t know why I bought these new ones because the square one I don’t think can beat. thanks for commenting. Take care my friend.👍👍
I also have to agree I can’t justify £70 also size can be an issue will you be showing your new destination?
Just add little water and don’t eat them!
You seriously think the Police are going to be bothered about your Opinel? As long as you're not flashing it about in public croded spaces you are fine with that, not as if the Police have taken to doing woodland spot checks. Talk about making a drama out of nothing yer big jessie. Anyway by the time you have read this message you've probably butchered that knife. This is the problem with some KZread campers, all drama, no common sense.
Wood gas stoves are brilliant, use mine a lot. Interesting to see how you keep it burning at tick over by stifling the air. Have seen people make up a ring with holes that match the bottom outer inlet, then turn to adjust the airflow. Might work for you.
i like the idea of the intake adjuster just have to find something that could make it work, i used my zebra pot lid to stiffel the outtake which also worked but its now covered in soot and not shiny so not a great success there lol 😁👍
also got blowback burps of fire so intake is the way to go
Did not take long for the camp to start looking homely , good work and look forward to seeing how it develops.👍
Lovely spot
Me and my boys made 1 just before summer I'm going to go back to the spot to see if it's still standing 👍🏻
I’d like to go back and check my old Hazel Pole tent, Last I saw it two of the poles had roots, I would’ve loved to have shaped it as it grew. Take care bud 👍👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman it was your older videos that inspired us to build it 🙂👍🏻
I saw your boys in the army gear Living the dream, it reminded me of my cadet years, moments like that they will always remember. We all inspire each other. 👍
what a great camp spot.. nice to see another video from you.. cheers..
Thank you. It’s great to be back It’s good to hear from you my friend
Good to see you back again. That looks like a really nice spot.
Really great spot. Thank you for sharing it BatW!
Thanks bud gotta say I love your stick so much, so I’ve copied it as part of a project code named Swiss Army stick! I will shout you out for giving me the idea 👍
@@badgerandthewoodsman my staff has been my close friend and ally for going on 3 years now. I almost never go into the woods without it. Glad I was able to provide you a little bit of inspiration man!
I just hopped on too see whats happening and noticed there's not a lot of rabbiting going on its neither hare nor there lol il say good bye before I get an ear full 😂
Puns champ 2024 😂🥇
