I'm also a ring maker, but hard to show you any rings as I've sold all the ones I've made except the original 1st one.... I use stainless steel and a variety of machines to make fighting rings, even drill and tapped to make SS Knuckles and have attachments of all kinds, spikes, razors, etc. =D Find out what ring size you are, I'm rebuilding my workshop!
One of my next projects is a forge, and some railroad knives. Out of Highschool I worked for a knife making guy still around called Wayne Clark. I've always loved daggers, but I have some really nice machetes too. Weapon building is a fun hobby I've taken on, my particular favorite being a 3/4th inch blow dart, and soon blow dart gattling gun.
@jeffthecheff building a collection of different keys so I can play in just about anything. I hunt tunnels to play in for the reverb. Where I live, there are tunnels everywhere that provide tranquility and different sounds. Bring me Irish whistle usually too =D
What I like about this video is you're using what's handy...not what's best for the job. In a survival situation, you use what's handy, not what you wish you had. (Study knot tying. Use the proper size rope or cord for the job, when and if you can.) As for the shelter, if it's ugly, but it still keeps you warm and dry, it ain't ugly. The good tunes made this video well worth watching.
@BravoAlphaLimaJR I learned the hard way, luckily I still have my finger from wearing thin gloves. Wicked scar though =D Hell this was just last december =D
It is weird to see in bushcraft so big waisting with rope :) Rope is like gold (try to make a role of cortage by your hand :)). I build similar dome shaped structure without rope (I used only 4 weedee(twisted willow branch to final tighten structure in crosslinks(hubs). use similar process to weawing basket in bigger scale :) Start with triangle and weave in next and next branchess to stronger structure, interlock branches together. It works nicely.
OMG ..the music !! Lord haven't heard this in yearssssssssssssssss !! TOTALLY GETS 2 THUMBS UP for CCR.. EXCELLENT
OMG it's strong enough for you to stand on !! WOW they made 2x4s... hey where the rest of video >>wanted to see finished ..oh well really neat video anyways!!!..little to much sawing for me tho...but think a girl could do this too : )
I dont get it...watching two people rope a few peices of wood together and chop down a tree and slice logs in half...could have been a little more footage of the actual building process.
@ArctusCanusLupus check the my video "sweat lodge", there is building of the frame in that, i will try to get more in depth on the next shelter for you!
@jeffthecheff Cheers for the creedence heads up man. Also, do you have a Pathfinder Scout Tomahawk? I could've sworn I saw it on your channel, but I canne find it again.
@jeffthecheff Is that the one where you can take off the axe head from the handle for easy rain carry? Just seen another bloke's one, and he implied it was very challenging to remove the head.
YO dude your better off doing music videos half the video is DARKEN.but at least the musice was great

great idea i've never seen before --- making wood wedges to split other wood !
pehaps you could do a " how-to " vid on all the stuff you did to make that shelter.

@jeffthecheff use a piece of wood from a split log as a mallet. You never want to put your axe at risk like that.

@pikulicluka Thanks alot! We just used a large roll of twine from a local hardware store.

@pikulicluka it looks like bailing twine---the stuff farmers use to make hay bails.
