HOW TO STAY WARM, SOME WINTER TIPS PART 1

[LindaIG6KArt]

Thanks for the tips on keeping warm Mr. Brown....>(^-^)< The Lady Skyy Katt RavenTail 

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@LindaIG6KArt THANKS BUNCHES NICE LADY! I REALLY NEED TO MAKE A VIDEO FOR THIS YEARS NEW WARM UP IDEAS.

KEEP SMILING AND HAVE A BALL.

[justicetrooper]

I've always wondered if it was possibly to hook up a heated blanket to run on batteries. That'd be great to have a coat with a heated blanket on the inside.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@justicetrooper D CELLS AND SMALLER WOULD GET A BIT WARM TRYING TO PRODUCE THE WATTS.

MUDDy

[cataubawoman]

Do not drink the water from a plastic bottle, especially on that has been in the microwave. Not good for you (toxic).

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@cataubawoman YA I HEARD THAT. I GUESS I SHOULDNT HAVE ADDED THAT PART.

MUDDy

[amulchinock]

Interesting. I love this video, it's so informative and caring somehow :)

Where'd you learn how to do that? Scouts?

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@amulchinock THE 2 LITER WAS A DESPERATION INVENT. THE HEATER WAS ON THE FRITZ AND I COULDNT SLEEP OR GET WARM. AND THE WIFE WAS IN OHIO AT HER MOM'S HOUSE VISITING. THE 2 LITER KEPT ME WARM FOR 2 HOURS AT A TIME. I FINALLY FIGURED THAT I COULD USE 3 BOTTLES AND SLEPT LIKE A BABY. I'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR 7 YEARS NOW.

[amulchinock]

@muddymuddymuddmann Brilliant :) (well, not about being cold!).

I was thinking; if you replace the bottle for a baby, and the towel for a blanket, you've got instant baby swaddle :)

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@amulchinock MAN THAT IS A GREAT IDEA! BABIES NEED TO STAY WARM TOO. JUST MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH BLANKET BETWEEN THE BABY AND THE BOTTLE. COOL THINKING.

MUDDy

[pielover8888]

instant break danceing lessons may occor....? ummm....... any1 tell me why that is?

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@pielover8888 YA SQUIRMING AROUND ON THE FLOOR WITH BURNING STEAM MOTIVATING YOU LIMBS. LOL. MAYBE JUST A BIT TOO MUCH SAFETY MESSAGES INCLUDED IN THIS VIDEO, BUT BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.

THANKS

MUDDy

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann WHY DO YA TYPE IN CAPS(ES)? XD

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@pielover8888 LESS HEADACHES DUE TO MY EYES, AND I HAVE COME TO ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF NOT HAVING TO GO BACK AND CAPITALIZE THE FIRST LETTER OF THE SENTENCE. ALSO THE BENEFIT OF FINDING WHICH COMMENT ON A PAGE THAT I HAVENT ANSWERED AT A GLANCE. ie. IF THE PATTERN IS DIFFERENT, THEN MY ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO IT WITHOUT HAVING TO SPEND TIME FINDING THE ONES I DIDNT ANSWER YET. I CAN COPY AND PAST THEIR QUESTIONS IN PMs, AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS RIGHT ON THE LETTER. LESS CONFUSION, BETTER ANSWERS.

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann SO WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF I USE CAPS, SO YOU DO NOT GET HEAD AXES? YES I SAID AXES :p BY THE WAY, GOOGLE "MINECRAFT"

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@pielover8888 Ha Ha! DOESNT MATTER, EITHER WAY YOU CHOOSE IS FINE WITH ME. JUST HAVE A BALL AND KEEP SMILING.

MUDDy

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann DID YOU GOOGLE IT? *SMILES* *HAS A BALL* *EXPLODES FROM HAPPINESS* XD

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@pielover8888 YA! PRETTY INTERESTING AND FUN. BY THE WAY...WHAT KIND OF PIE MAKES YOU ASK FOR MORE? MINE IS BLUEBERRY, OR CHERRY CHEESECAKE. I GET 1 ON MY BIRTHDAY EACH YEAR INSTEAD OF CAKE. THE CAKE IS FOR THE CROWD. THE CHEESE CAKE IS ALL MINE. LOL.

ONCE A YEAR GREEDY MUDDy MANN

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann PUMPY! PUMPYKIN XD lol i still have a cake, but .. i forget the name.. it hase some stuff in the middle... chocolatte strips IN it... darn.. forgot the name..

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@pielover8888 HA HA! SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE ZINGERS ON THE BRAIN. GOOD OLD DOLLY MADISON.

MUDDy

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann remember, im a kid.. what in the world is a zinger? I JUST WANT MAH PUMPKIN PIEH DX LOL

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann OH, zinger is like the kind of cake right? XD being a .. "yougnen" i had no idea whatsoever what you were talking about.. LOL

[pielover8888]

@muddymuddymuddmann IM GOING TO PICK THIS UP IN A PM, K?

[field16]

Good low-tech and inexpensive tricks to staying warm! And we have more cold weather coming, so this could be useful now.

Do you strap some water bottles to your dog to keep him warm when he goes outside to do his business?  Haha!

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@field16 HA HA! THAT DOG HAD MANGE SO BAD BEFORE I GOT HIM THAT HIS HAIR NEVER CAME BACK MUCH. AND YOU WOULDNT BELIEVE IT, BUT HE ACTUALLY DARTS OUT THE DOOR IN THE MORNING, AND YOU CANT GET HIM BACK INSIDE. Da CRAZY DOG AMAZES ME. 8 DEGREES THIS MORNING AND 21 WHEN I GOT HOME. I HAD TO BRIBE HIM IN THE DOOR WITH A HOT DOG. WE HAVE A DOG HOUSE THAT HE HAS NEVER SEEN THE INSIDE OF. FACT! I HAVE ONLY OUT SMARTED HIM 2 TIMES TO KEEP HIM INSIDE WHEN I LEAVE.

[themanyone]

Very good. I couldn't play on camera either for quite a while. No copy, but I can use some of your ideas.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@themanyone THANKS! THE CORN BAG IS PRETTY COOL. Den0Q PUT A VIDEO RESPONSE HERE THAT IS PRETTY NICE TO SEE. CHECK 'EM OUT.

NICE USER NAME YOU GOT THERE.

[DonaldCollis]

There is another tech you might want to check into called Wood Gasification. and Thermal Mass Heater, Rocket Stoves, and J Stove off of the rocket stoves. There are allot of great information out on youtube about completely ruining your vehicle with wood scraps and no gas . Hope this gives you and the guys something to chew on

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@DonaldCollis OH YA, I AM A BIG FAN ON THAT SUBJECT. 4 CHORDS OF WOOD COMPAIRED TO 1/2 CHORD FOR A WHOLE WINTER IS GREAT. WOOD GASSIFICATION IS PRETTY NEAT FOR GENERATORS AND TRUCKS. THAT IS DEFINITELY (FREE) ENERGY. OF COURSE IT TAKE A WARM UP TIME, YOU CANT JUST TURN A KEY AND GO, BUT WHO CARES WITH THE PRICE OF OIL THESE DAYS AND THE DAYS AHEAD ESPECIALLY. MY SHOP WILL HAVE A HOMEMADE COB ROCKET STOVE MASS HEATER INSTALLED WHEN I FINISH IT. 4 POUNDS OF WOOD FOR HEAT PER DAY IS GREAT.

MUDDy

[cdltpx]

I bought a 12 volt electric blanket I got it bc I was a bus driver and planned to go to some games and rather than burn all the fuel I thought I could just fire up the blanket to keep warm. Well I ended up 13ing the job but still have the electric blanket I will plug that thing in and drve that way my engine can get good and hot with the added resistance of the alternator plus not running the heater at first allows the engine to keep its heat once engine warm I can usually put the blanket away.

[cdltpx]

@cdltpx They claim you can run the blanket for 5 hours on a normal car battery I was going to give it an endurance test but opeted out since I am not underwriters labortory. I will take the peoples word that it will keep you warm for a while. Another thing you might carry on your person is a SPOT satellite comm device has 2 buttons one for im ok the other for 911 if you live out where you could be missing for a few you might want to invest ~100used 150 new 100year service plan they have saved.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@cdltpx 100 YEARS SERVICE PLAN IS A BIT EXTREME. THAT'S LIKE A SERVICE PLAN ON MY 25 YEAR OLD OBSOLETE COMODORE 64 COMPUTER. IT STILL RUNS. NASA DIDNT GET IT.

THE ELECTRIC BLANET KNOWLEDGE IS PRETTY COOL. I WONDER HOW GOOD IT DOES ON MY CEILING FAN WIND TURBINE.

THE ENGINE TORQUEING ON THE ALTERNATOR LOAD AND NOT DISSAPATING HEAT THROUGH THE HEATER CORE IS PRETTY GOOD FOR WARM UP. A SCHOOL BUS IS A BIG SPACE TO HEAT.

MUDDy

[cdltpx]

@muddymuddymuddmann The device is like a cell phone but uses satellite for telemetry you have just 2 buttons I have seen them on line used for $100 hardware the service cost $100. a year.

IDK about on the fan turbine you can spec out the electric blanket on line they IDK if they are still selling them.

I never got to use the blanket on the bus I use it in my car now I quit the bus job before the blanket arrived. Seems I don't get along too well with parents but do fine with children.

[cdltpx]

@cdltpx What is neat about the blanket is it will stay warm after you turn it off so if you took it and placed it inside your jacket and wrapped it around your core you would stay very toasty.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@cdltpx YUPPERS! LOTS OF INSULATION TO KEEP THE HEAT IN. THA'S WHAT THE TOWEL WRAPPED AROUND THE 2 LITER DOES. I KEEP HEARING THE RICE WORKS LONGER BUT, I KNOW 2 LITERS OF WATER HAS MORE CAPACITY TO STORE HEAT. THE WRAPS KEEP IT WARM FOR A LONG TIME.

BULKY, MAYBE, BUT WHO CARES WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING. JUST ANOTHER BELLY.

MUDDy

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@cdltpx SOME PARENTS FORGET HOW TO ACT WHEN THEY DONT HAVE MOM AND DAD RULING THEM ANYMORE. THEY CANT FATHOM YOU MAKING A DECISSION WITHOUT THEIR VAST KNOWLEDGE, THAT WOULD MAKE YOU SMARTER THAN THEM.

$100 PER YEAR IS TOO RICH FOR ME.LOL.

I GUESS THE ELECTRIC BLANKETS ARE 12 VOLTS. CHECK THE TRUCK STOPS FOR 12 VOLT APPLICATIONS. THEY SEEM TO HAVE ANYTHING INCLUDING 12 VOLT MICROWAVES, DISCO BALLS, REFRIGERATORS, AND EVEN TOASTERS, AND COFFEE MAKERS. GET THE WEB ADDRESS FROM THE BOX.

MUDDy

[cdltpx]

@muddymuddymuddmann I pay $60 a month just for wireless phone service $100 a year for satellite service is a drop in the bucket. Sure they cant contact you with sat comm but when you let it track you they know where you are if you are almost predictable as I am they know where you are headed. When I was a trucker it was a pisser to get an electric 12 volt blanket I just froze my ass off so when I saw walmart offefed them for $25 I said I must have one it rides in the car is one is cold. Pece

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@cdltpx YA I DIDNT LOOK AT IT IN THAT LIGHT. SOUNDS A BIT CHEAPER NOW. LOL.

THE 12 VOLT BLANKET SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD TOO.

MUDDy

[DonaldCollis]

MuddyMudMan Here is a great tip Take an old tube sock and fill it with plain old rice. Fill it up with enough to be able to tie off the end. Then toss it in the microwave. It will stay hot for hours. Great for around the neck for sore necks and it will keep ya warm in a pinch . Try it out and let me know what you think

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@DonaldCollis I DID IT WITH A TUBE SOCK FILLED ABOUT 8 INCHES UP. IT WORKED REALY WELL. THANKS. I WILL BE SHOWING IT IN THE NEXT WINTER TIPS VIDEO ALONG WITH A FEW MORE IDEAS HANDED TO ME. THANKS DONALD.

MUDDy

[whotoinfinity]

MuddMan... you forgot the famous Coffee Can Heater... always keep some candles and matches in a coffee can inside your car; in the event of a breakdown in the boonies you can light a candle inside the coffee can, you'll have light, and the can will capture/radiate the heat. (This is much preferred to foraging for cow dung.)

Peace

Gill

[whotoinfinity]

@whotoinfinity oh yeah, I forgot... you can stuff a few snickers, band-aids ect inside the can as well....

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@whotoinfinity THANKS GILL,

CANDLES SMELL BETTER TOO. I LIKE THE CINNAMON, AND APPLE SCENTED ONES. I HAVE A HUGE COOKIE CAN THAT I DUMP ALL OF MY SPARE WAY IN. I MELT IT IN THE SUN WITH THE FRESNEL LENS. THEN I SELECT A PATTERN IN THE WAX FOR WICKS. TWIST UP THIN STRIPS OF PAPER TOWEL, COAT THEM WITH WAX , POKE HOLES IN THE WAX AND INSERT THEM. TEAR THE TOWEL AT ABOUT 1/2 INCH FOR THE BEST WICKS. FATTER MAKES IT SMOKE. MUCH THINNER WICKS JUST BURNS OUT EARLY.

MUDDy

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@whotoinfinity NOPE NO SNICKERS! 3 MUSKETEERS FOR ME BUDDY. FLUFFY NOT STUFFY. LOL.

YUP, BAND AIDS, AND A COOL PLACE TO KEEP A LOT OF THINGS DRY, LIKE SOME PACKAGED CRACKERS. AND FIELD LINE. AND SOME MORE PAPER TOWEL FOR WICKS.

[chunkyfecalbreakfast]

British Army Arctic Warfare gloves have kept my hands warm in -10C on my bike this winter. Picked em up on ebay for £15, what a bargain.  I like the potato idea, I'm eating taties for lunch!

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@chunkyfecalbreakfast ARCTIC WARFARE GLOVES. NEVER HEARD OF THEM, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE I NEED A PAIR. THANKS FOR THE GOOD TIP.

MUDDy

[ThisIsMySockAccount]

I had one that used to mumble under his breath at me while he waited to get what he wanted, so I know what ya mean.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@ThisIsMySockAccount EXACTLY !!!, I GUESS YOU DO KNOW WHAT I MEAN. AND THE EYE MAN THE EYE. IT'S SO COOL. I WAIT FOR IT. LOL.

HALF THE TIME YOU CAN BARELY HEAR HIM WHEN HE MUMBLES, BUT HE NEVER GETS MUCH LOUDER THAN THAT. HE IS DEFINITELY WEIRD IN A HOMEY WAY. KINDA LIKE A REINCARNATED BUM.

HE CAME HOME WITH A PLUCKED CHICKEN AND SET IT DOWN AND SAID ARRUGGGMUNT?? AND LOOKED AT LIKE COOK IT AND I'LL SPLIT IT. OK 30 MINUTES BOY. HE LAYED DOWN AND WATCHED ME LIKE A HAWK.

MUDDy

[ThisIsMySockAccount]

@muddymuddymuddmann "AND LOOKED AT LIKE COOK IT AND I'LL SPLIT IT. OK 30 MINUTES BOY. "

ROFL! I've actually got a CAT who behaves like that, like shes always trying to "make a deal". Oddly enough, SHE talks under her breath at me too! I'm beginning to think there is some kind of animal conspiracy going on here.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@ThisIsMySockAccount DOESNT THAT FALL UNDER ONE OF THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, CALLED DISCERNMENT OF SPIRITS WHEN YOU SEE RIGHT THROUGH THEIR INTENTIONS OR MOTIVES? LOL.

WWEEEEE!

[Pirate88179]

Great video Scott! Some great tips. It is pretty cold over here in Kentucky I can tell you.

Bill

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@Pirate88179 HEY PIRATE BILL,

GLAD TO HEAR FROM YA. THEM HILLS MOVE THE WIND FUNNY THERE. LOTS OF COLD POCKETS. THANKS, AND STAY WARM. HAVE YOU TRIED THE 2 LITER THING YET?>

MUDDy

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@muddymuddymuddmann YES MANY TIMES, ALL LAST WINTER IN THE MORNING TAKING THE WIFE TO WORK. AND AT WORK IN THE SHOP WHEN I HAD MY TAXI BUSINESS. THE HOT POTATOES IN THE POCKETS WORKED GOOD WHEN I WAS HEAD FUELER AT 76 TRUCKSTOP. 12 HOUR SHIFTS FROM 7PM TO 7AM. ALL MY FUELERS HAD THEM IN THEIR POCKETS. WE USED AND ATE 10 Lbs A WEEK, AND 2 TUBS OF BUTTER, AND ABOUT 2 BOXES OF ZIPLOCK BAGGIES. THEY GAVE US A MICROWAVE FOR THE DOG HOUSE TO KEEP US OUT OF THE RESAURANT AT BREAK.

MUDDy

[ThisIsMySockAccount]

"anyway, another tip that you can do ... skip that" LOL

He REAAALLLY had to go huh?

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@ThisIsMySockAccount HE STARTED GIVING ME THE EYE. IT WAS DISTRACTING. BECAUSE I KNEW IF I SAID ANYTHING ELSE, HE WOULD START ANSWERING EACH COMMENT I SAY, IN A LOW TONE. YOU GOTTA HEAR IT TO BELIEVE IT. HE THINKS HE'S SAYING WORDS. BRAHMMA IS A STRANGE AND FUNNY DOG. I CALL HIM NUMBER 3 SON. BRILLIANT BY DOG TERMS. UGLY CUTE BT NATURE.

MUDDy

[allekans]

hot coffee or t will do inna the bottle tastes better than hot water

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@allekans THANKS ALLEKANS, I USED TO DO THAT, BUT USUALY I DONT DRINK FROM THE BOTTLE ANYMORE UNLESS ITS LIKE AN EMERGENCY, POLYMERS ARE LONG STRING MOLECULES THAT TRANSFER FROM THE PLASTIC AND NEVER LEAVE YOUR BODY. COLD LIQUIDS STILL GET SOME, BUT HOT WATER SOFTEMS THE PLASTIC AND A LOT MORE TRANSFERS. I USED TO PUT MY COFFEE IN SODA BOTTLES UP TO 6 YEARS AGO WHEM ONE OF MY FRIENDS TOLD ME. THANKS ALLEKANS

MUDDy

[mrbr549]

Good tips Scott. I've always used rice when I needed a long lasting warmer. It works great and no worry about getting anything wet, or having something explode in the microwave. Just fill a small paper or cloth bag 1/3 full with rice and fold it up, tie with a string, and microwave a couple minutes. Drop into your pockets as needed. Another tip is to carry a candle in your car so if you break down you will have a small source of heat and light.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@mrbr549 HEY SOUPY S.,

I TRIED IT LAST NIGHT, IT WORKED PRETTY GOOD. 1HR LATER IT WAS COLD AGAIN. THE 2 LITER BOTTLE STORES 2 LITERS WORTH OF HEAT. WITH THE LAYERS OF TOWEL AROUND IT. IT LASTS ALL NIGHT AS A WARM SNUGGLY. LOL. THE RICE THING SSEEMS MORE PRACTICAL FOR POCKETS, AND LIGHT WEIGHT TOO. A TIN CAN HELD ABOVE A CANDLE TO CATCH THE HEAT IS PRETTY COOL. CANDELS CONTAIN A LOT OF FUEL. A LIFE SAVER.

MUDDy

[JOHNNYH8STHENWO]

I never heard about the manure thing. That's a good idea. But you're in Texas, I'm in New York. If I lived in Texas I would have a tan, lol.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@JOHNNYH8STHENWO HEY JOHNNY,

MISSY SAID SHE WOULD SEND YOU A COW PATTY, LOL. I TRIED THE DRY LONG GRAIN RICE BAG IN THE MICROWAVE 2M:45SEC., IT GOT HOTTER FOR 5 MINUTES, STEAMED AND SMELLED REAL GOOD. LASTED 1HR. STAY WARM DUDE.

MUDDy

[JOHNNYH8STHENWO]

@muddymuddymuddmann LOL!! As much as I hate winter, I adjust to it quite well. I don't get all bundled up to go outside. No gloves, no hat, no long underwear. I got a warm coat, that's good enough for me.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@JOHNNYH8STHENWO I BET THE SILVER INGOTS GET PRETTY COLD THOUGH.

MUDDy

[JOHNNYH8STHENWO]

@muddymuddymuddmann LOL!! I got a kerosene heater, so they stay fairly warm. I haven't turned my heat on all winter.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@JOHNNYH8STHENWO I USED KEROSENE HEAT FOR 2 YEARS. I LIKE IT TOO. A LITTLE ODOR AT FIRST AND AFTER, BUT IT BEATS A $250 ELECTRIC BILL. I FINE TUNED A TURBO HEATER FOR A CLEANER BURN. MAN THAT THING PUT OUT SOME HEAT. I JUST TURNED IT ON FOR 10 MINUTES EVERY 45 MINUTES WHEN IT GOT TOO COLD FOR THE SPACE HEATER TO KEEP UP. ALL OF THE DOORS OPEN INSIDE THE HOUSE MADE A NICE CIRCULAR PATH TO HEAT UP ALL THE ROOMS. I ONLY NEEDED 1 FAN TO KEEP IT FULL CIRCLE.

WHAT'S AN oz. OF .9999 SILVER GOING FOR?

[JOHNNYH8STHENWO]

@muddymuddymuddmann Right now an ounce is about 27 bucks. It was as high as 31 but the CFTC sided with JPMorgan, which means they can continue to manipulate the market. When I get my taxes back on Monday then I'm loading up. I'm also going to get more food and seeds and shit. I'm so excited, lol.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@JOHNNYH8STHENWO NOW THAT'S GREAT NEWS FOR ME. I WANTED SOME ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO WHEN IT WAS 32 BUCKS AND SHIPPING A BIT HIGH. BUT 27 SEEMS A BIT BETTER FOR BUYING.

I WANT SOME COLLOIDAL SILVER IN ME. MANIPULATION...BAD , BUT THE LOWER PRICE...BETTER.

[58belvedere]

Great Video Scott, I had no idea you had a call sign! any videos of the shack? did you get any more done on the windmill? 73s from N3WYZ

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@58belvedere TOO COLD FOR THE WHIRLYGIG THINGS. GENERAL CLASS WITH CODE AS IF THAT PART MATTERS ANYMORE. WHEN THEY TOOK THE CODE OUT, THEY TOOK OUR PRIDE. SOME OF THE TEST RESULT VIDS HAD THE HEATH KITS IN THE VIDEOS. THE POWER SUPPLY KEEPS TRIPPING AFTER 1 TO 2 MINUTES. MAYBE ILL GET TO THE TROUBLE SHOOTING IT. I LOVE GLOW IN THE DARK RADIOS.

73s FROM ME AND 88s FROM THE YL. KB5ETP/MUDDy

The Temp here In pa is 3 with lots of snow and wind.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@58belvedere YA I HEARD YA'LL HAD SOME DOUBLE DIGIT NEGATIVE CHILL FACTORS THAT WONT QUIT THIS YEAR. HOW'S THE ANTENNAS HOLDING UP? 2000 WATTS THROUGH A ROLL INDUCTOR TUNER SHOULD MELT IT OFF. LOL. MY FOOT WARMER HAS 2 ( 3-500Zs) FROM AN OLD RADIO STATION. I REALY WANT TO GET IT GOING AGAIN TOO. IT'S SET FOR 15 - 75 METERS. BYE THE WAY.. EVER SLEEP IN A SNOW BANK?

 MUDDy

[WambliPeta]

Another tip.... If in a survival situation, don't eat ice or snow. Use your body to thaw / warm the ice / snow.....Do not eat ice or snow in this situation.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@WambliPeta YA KEEPING THE CORE WARM IS THE BATTLE. THANKS W.. MUDDy

[WambliPeta]

My grandpa told me that two baked potatoes kept his hands warm on the way to school, and were a part of his lunch.... thanx for share'n Muddy 8-)

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@WambliPeta THEM TATERS HOLD A LOT OF HEAT FOR A LONG TIME. AND IT'S THE OLD SCHOOL WAY OF TAKING ONLY WHAT YOU NEED. DAD'S SCHOOL LUNCH... BAKED POTATOE SLICED DOWN THE MIDDLE WITH A PIECE OF STEAK INSERTED INTO THE SLICE WITH SEASONINGS. BREAD WRAPPED AROUND IT AND PAPER AROUND THAT WITH STRING AROUND THAT. SLUNG OVER THE SHOULDER, HANGING EVEN WITH THE OL BREAD BASKET AND YOUR COAT OVER ALL. YUMM YUMM!

LUNCHTIME...STILL HOT.

@Nitelurker1 YOU'RE WELCOME!!! GLAD I COULD IMPRESS YOUR TASTE BUDS. MUDDy

[sylvanenergy]

a cloth bag full of rice, microwaved works a hell of a lot longer Scott!

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@sylvanenergy IS THAT FULLY COOKED IN WATER OR JUST DRY RICE? INQUIRING MIND WANTS TO KNOW. THANKS FOR THE COMMENT. KEEP SMILING, AND STAY WARM. MUDDy

[sylvanenergy]

@muddymuddymuddmann just straight uncooked long grain rice in a cotton bag microwaved. Scott its so cold where I live spit freezes before it hits the ground sometimes. Try the rice bag you folks down south will appreciate it.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@sylvanenergy THANK YOU FOR THIS DETAILED DISCRIPTION, I JUST WENT TO THE KITCHEN, AND FOUND A 2 CUP PLASTIC BAG THAT WAS SEALED WITH LABEL. I PULLED A SOCK OVER IT, TWISTED THE SOCK, AND PULLED IT OVER AGAIN. I PUT IT IN THE MICROWAVE FOR 20 SEC., 20 MORE., 20 MORE, THEN 1 MINUTE MORE, AND I DECIDED TO GO FOR 1 MORE MINUTE, BUT IT GOT SO HOT THAT IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS SMOKING, BUT IT WAS STEAM. IT IS SO HOT I CAN BARELY HOLD IT. AND IT SMELLS LIKE SUGAR AND RICE. MM GOOD! SEEMS TO GAIN HEAT.

[sylvanenergy]

@muddymuddymuddmann try it just in the cloth without the plastic bag

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@sylvanenergy OK , I'LL TRY IT THAT WAY. I'LL LET YOU KNOW.

[47f0]

Pro tip for staying warm in your house - Dogs. Ever hear of a three dog night? Dogs emit lots of warm moist air. You might be tempted to get a couple of big dogs, like mastiffs or saint bernards. That's a mistake. Get lots of those little yappy dogs. You know, the ones you would normally sic a squirrel on. That way, you can fine-tune your temperature by tossing a few out the window if it gets too warm.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@47f0 YUP THREE DOG NIGHT! I HEARD THAT ONE BEFORE. I FORGET WHAT THEY WERE CALLED BEFORE THEY TOOK THAT NAME, A LOT OF GOOD SONGS. MOMMA TOLD ME NOT TO COME.... ECT...

THAT'S WHERE THEY GOT THE NAME FROM. I HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT ONE FOR A WHILE.

I GUESS I COULD ADD IT TO THE LIST.

THANKS. MUDDy

[WambliPeta]

@muddymuddymuddmann So nice to know that other ppl know about "three dog night" That's pretty cold 8-)

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@WambliPeta YOU MEAN LIKE.... THE TRAVELING WILLBERRIES?

MUDDy

[pielover8888]

@47f0 ... or, get an austrailian sheppard named photon if you tell him not to run at.. a deer.. he wont run, same with skunks even if u say it b4hand XD and if you tell hm not to pant, he might listen.. only thing is he wont "sit" or "lay down"... he knows stay pretty well though (up to 15 feet hes a mommys boy.. or a boy's boy XD)

[hughtub]

Gotta be careful with drinking water from heated plastic, it leeches the chemicals into the water, which has been linked to increased infertility. I like the "heat battery" concept.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@hughtub THANKS, IS THAT WHERE YOU PUT A RESISTOR ON A BATTERY FOR HEAT? I HOPE TO GET MORE IDEAS TO ADD TO THE ONES I HAVE LEFT TO ADD TO VIDEO. I HAVE AN INVENTION I AM THEORIZING ON. I HOPE IT WORKS. MUDDy

[hughtub]

@muddymuddymuddmann Nah I meant the use of a material that warms up and takes a long time to lose that warmth, thus functioning as a "battery for heat". The same concept is used to create earth-covered houses that stay warm at night by using the heat absorbed during the day.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@hughtub OH! OK MY BAD. HEAT STORAGE BATTERY. NOW I FOLLOW YOU.

SORRY I TOOK SO LONG ANSWERING. I'VE BEEN PRETTY BUSY.

Thanks for the tips.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@v3511 HA HA I DIDNT KNOW IF THE LAST ONE WOULD GO OVER TO WELL, BUT I TOOK THE CHANCE ANYWAY. THE HOT WATER IN THE TOWEL WORKS REAL GOOD. YOU CAN ALSO HEAT THE WATER BEFORE YOU PUT IT IN THE BOTTLE BUT IT'S PRETTY HARD HOLDING THE FUNNEL AND THE BOTTLE AND POUR IT AT THE SAME TIME. LOL. I GOT BURNED A FEW TIMES BEFORE I STARTED FILLING THE BOTTLE FIRST. THE DRIVING TIP WAS FROM WHEN I OWNED A CAB COMPANY.

My wife makes corn bags she makes little pillows out of field corn. put them in the Microwave and your warm all the way to work. You can make'em large for your coat or make'em small for your gloves. Plus they smell good! Thanks for the videos.

[muddymuddymuddmann]

@Den0Q I WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOW TO MAKE THEM! I HAVE BEEN FROST BITTEN A FEW TIMES BEFORE, THAT'S WHY I DO THE POTATO AND BOTTLE THING. THE CORN PILLOWS SOUND NICE FOR THE GLOVES.

THANK YOU FOR THE TIP. MUDDy
