Dan with Zelph's is a great person to work with! He has mad me some custom stuff and given free stuff for the kids.
I like how scientific your test method is .thank you for being so effective.
Very helpful.
So sorry to hear about your loss. Sure it's a lot of money, but the fact that people are dishonest and we have to be so aware and keep upto date on all of the scams that are out there. I recently got scammed too. It hasn't cost me any money as of yet, I think they were fishing for my info., but now I'm afraid they're going to sell it on the dark web or something and I might end up with problems in the future. God bless.

I think I got scammed. Ordered a picnic table to be built and put half down and the guy went mia on me. Reporting it to FB and Square. I used my credit card so I will be ok. Never use your bebit or cash apps.
So sad man
That was an awesome hiking. I did part of same trail last fall (late October and early November) in reverse direction. Started from Rosendale to Ellenville in 3 sections, and I totally agree with you, the best section is between Minnewaska and Sam's Point. I also missed the cave near Rainbow falls, and crossed the stream that feeds Verkeerderkill Falls after dark. The scenery on top of the ridge is just pure breathtaking!
I lost $50 but I don’t mind I can make $50 in an hour but the fact that scum bag ppl have intentions to scam people they just bums imagine being so down bad to scam ppl

Is there hope to recover from your shoulder pain that you say you live with??? I’ve had rotator cuff pain for a month now after training for a backpacking trip
You should rather check out the X-Boil. It uses a similar burner, but a better windscreen. Just ask Leo to send you one.
I just got scammed $1700 myself....
I recommend *codacyethics* to anyone who needs help. I'm sure he will help you a lot 😎

He's alive!!! 😀 Glad to see you're back. 👍 But what's the deal with everyone, including me, getting sick this year? 🤔
I like those mini burners with the cap. I wonder if there's o-rings to make an airtight seal. Great to see a new video from you. Hope all is well. 👍
what hammock are you using in this video?
👍👍👍 .. nice 😊. I love my Esbit Stoves. I have two, the first being my original military issue from 1968 during my Military National Service. Fuels .. Liquid Alcohol or Alcohol-based Gel. I keep a pack of the Esbit Tablets stored inside the stove for 'just in case'. Burners .. mainly re-purposed Aluminium 200ml Energy Drink Cans or similar. Metal 'Bottle Tops' work well .. Whiskey is good .. don't waste anything 😏 (when a lower heat output is required). I fill the Burners with Glass / Ceramic Wool or Carbon Cloth to mitigate burning fuel spillage in the event of an inadvertent knock over. How much? I've learned how many 'squirts' of the fuel bottle is required for whatever. Rather less than more .. I have no problem with refilling (after making sure that the flame is out with the ever-present wet cotton face cloth). I'm a 'Boomer' (YOB 1950) so such (now perceived) obstacles 😱 are for me, no fuss. Wind Screens .. repurposed Aluminium Baking Trays, Soft Drink Cans and such. Just last night, home alone and babysitting the Pooch, I rustled up, on my 3rd floor flat balcony, some Spaghetti from the night before with a freshly cooked Onion, Garlic, Tomato Paste and Pesto Sauce on my Esbit Stove, using Alcohol Gel Fuel, in a Rectangular Aluminium Military Mess Tin .. delicious 😋. A good share .. thanks. Take care ..
Great to see you back Mark, even better with an alcohol stove review.
Thanks Scott, hard to say no to an alcohol stove!
Good to see you back Marc. I hope your health issues have subsided I made my own mini cone made out of titanium sheet, and I made my own spill proof alcohol stove. It is my favorite stove system for weekend trips
Still not 100%, but I'm back and I'll put out a video letting everyone know what's been going on.
It's been awhile. Good to see you back.
Thanks!
Hi there-I use a similar stove, you are just supposed to blow it out-don't use the lid, it will start to leak fuel.
Cool deal, I didn't remember being able to blow my others out, but I'm sure you're right. Thanks for the correction!
Great to see you on Channel again! Hey, after I watched your video I got a suggested video of a very similar stove from a "bloke" in the UK that pretty much is saying the solid fuel is NOW BANNED in the UK! It would be nice to know what precipitated that and hope that doesn't happen in the US. Yeah!! See you in Camp Stoves Anonymous!! LOL!! Jeff
Interesting, they ban a lot of strange things over there!
I'm in the UK. It's not banned per se. You now need a special licence to sell, buy, and possess it as there is a fear (paranoia) that in large quantities, hexy. (and other substances) can be used by extremists. These substances are classed as explosive pre-cursors and you need an EPP licence. www.gov.uk/government/publications/licensing-for-home-users-of-explosives-precursors/licensing-for-home-users-of-poisons-and-explosive-precursors
I don't remember if Simon or Paul Messner talked about it. I heard the reason they banned the old style fuel tabs was the chemical could be used as a precursor for making explosives. It seems like a far fetched overreach though.
thats 1/2 mesh
Thanks, if you saw the segment I cut out trying to add 99 and 10.8 you’d see why I couldn’t determine the size! LOL
I love my fancee feast, I got one a decade old I bet. Most of the problems people have with them has to do with lack of intelligence. Less is more. Great video I remeber similar stove stuff you did back in the day
I still have 3 Fancee Feast stoves, all still work, great design!
@SpiguyverBackpacking1 still jealous you got one of those custom bead rolled toaks 550s and the matching caldera cone thing. Don't you have the carbon lid also?
Good to see you back in front of the camera. Hope life is treating you well. Any chance you'll make it out to Fall MAHHA?
It’s been a while, things are going okay. I will do my best to make it, really depends on work and life! But the intent is that yes I will be there.
Good to see you back! You got any plans to get out and do more trip videos any time soon?
No solid plans, but I’ll put out a video talking through some of it. Thanks!
What section was this? Great video. I’m not sure i can make 40 miles in a weekend. lol.
When I sell anything I ALWAYS TELL THE BUYER CASH ONLY. AND I GIVE THEM A DIFFERENT ADDRESS MEETING AND IN MY PROFILE ON FACEBOOK I ONLY HAVE MY FIRST NAME AND NO OTHER INFO ABOUT ME OR WHERE I WORK ETC
can you find the messages? i archived them but i cant find them. all you did is talk about your tent
Hi Spiguyver, I know this is an older video, so I understand if you might not know...but what size Toaks pot are you using? Looks like a Toaks at least...
I believe I was using the 550
Good review. I have that hammock and am very happy with it. The first thing I did was replace the ridge line with Amstel. Added chinch buckles. Other than that it’s a great hammock. Great for someone starting out or a seasoned pro. After a few upgrades it’s a top notch hammock.
Did you ever get your money back

What would you say to using a closed cell foam pad like the exped megamat? Do you think this is something that could work Thanks
Onky if you’re talking about combining it with the existing pad. The pas creates the structure
@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 ive bit hte bullt and trid it, got the exped megamat 10 without the original pad, its honestly so much better
Great review.
A thoroughly comprehensive review, thank you. I can see it being useful for canoe camping, with it's ability to also bivi. The same idea as the cheaper and lighter NighCat LayFlat?
try renting a house or apartment on facebook scammers ther only ones who answer you try to get you to send your money online which is a rip off every time

dont send money over the internet you have no idea who is actually getting the money
I still love my Blackbird. But when i bought bought it, the only comparable brands were Hennessey and Warbonnet. Nothing else really existed. Because im not made of money, I'll probably just use my BB until it dies. 😂
Sucks, happened to me on venmo when business run transactions as friends & family, they were no help

@@DaveScott15 what are you talking about?? You’re replying to wrong comment
Temu sells hammocks dirt cheap like 15 bucks and up and i never had an issue with eno hammocks also thats not a flat lay hammock
Not trying to throw shade, but why didn’t you just go to the store and buy one?
Excellent review of a great bunch of gear. Nice to see the versatility of the Haven system.
This is so horrible . I only do Pay Pal. Someone did try to scam me once .
From my experience goretex is just a membrane that gives additional property to layer beneath. If the whole product rely only on goretex it’s maybe like for a light drizzle or a running shoe and running thru some puddles . I have modern military boots that are made for army which are like 200€ and those are the real stuff , we talking mud , tongue Sewed basically to the top , fully tested boots with pressure chambers and then added gore tex on top of it. But since goretex is included , there’s almost zero breathing of your foot , as it’s not possible to have both gore tex and breathing shoe . So for the real deal I would suggest real deal modern army boots either hi or mid which are like the most versatile all year boot you can buy . As for the winter boot I personally bought UGG butte and I can’t believe how much I like them , it’s just really simple boot , old school leather and wool and the way how they feel on your feet is almost walking in the slippers . Not for huge water crossing , but as far as snow and rain all day I’ve tested them myself in a -22c and heavy wool socks and I got by for hours ( but my face did not 😃 ) so I would buy those . I’ve used to have some Nike shoes before and while they kept warm , but they slipped on ice or snow like crazy . These UGG got vibram sole , which even in some ice and tile floor hold it’s own , 100% recommend those . Like I’ve said it’s far from these boots , but it’s like insane wool slippers, no problems with sweat and membrane , leather does all the work , so even when it’s post winter , but rainy and everything I’m taking them just for how slipper like they are and I’m confident that I will be warm , got traction , comfort and dry. So if I can take one shoes only and get out of my house not knowing where and what’s gonna happen I’ll take my modern combat shoes and zombies can chase me , and if it’s casual winter colder walking back and forth with smile , I’ll take UGGs
I was scammed just now trying to buy a ps5 off of facebook fr

I might be drunk, but GoreTex isn't supposed to be submerged for a long period of time. Does it work in rain? Duh. Does it work when crossing a river or stream? Duh. Does it work in puddles of water? Duh. Does it work well for swimming in terms of waterproof? Uh, no. It doesn't work that way. I'm drunk as a skunk right now. My big cock is on the table. I love my roosters. Waterproof is a stretch. Same goes for bulletproof vests. They're not bulletproof. Rifles cut through them like a hit knife through butter or like my little cock through the chicken coop. I'm drunk, man. Fuck. Oh. Ohhhhhhh. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I don't ship, sell local for pickup and do busy in person with cash only.
IF YOU NEVER RECEIVED MERCHANDISE DO THIS!!. - If you are a CUSTOMER and you paid by CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD, You can contact your bank or credit card company and ask for a REVERSE CHARGE-BACK. What this does the MERCHANT/SELLER will be forced by the bank or credit card company to refund your money back into your account INSTANTLY While the credit card/debit card charge is being investigated. The CUSTOMER WINS this 95% of the time. And the MERCHANT/SELLER will be penalized $25.00 per occurrence. I had one company do this to me Nine months in a row. Then they stopped doing it to me altogether, I guess they didn't like giving away $225.00 in fees, lol.
