These cheap magnet alarms are best used inside of the drawers of other mechanic's toolboxes! [We'd set up auto alarms w/ multiple high db sirens and boyyy would it get people's attention] 🤘🤣
Good on clear days, but not weather resistant. I used to make parameter alarms out of rat traps. I would drill a hole in the trap, under the striker arm, and use a cut off nail as a firing pin. I fastened a shelf bracket with one screw, and placed a starter pistol blank behind one of the chamfered holes, just under the firing pin. When someone walked into the monofilament line, attached to the trigger on the trap, the striker arm would slam into the nail/firing pin and the starter blank would fire, giving an audible alarm. That striker arm can also be used as a switch when you want to turn on lights or run an alarm inside your house. We used them at a you-cut Christmas tree farm because many trees were being stolen. Best way to cover acreage; works in the rain, day or night, and does not hurt anyone.
That's just a standard general purpose Carpenters half hatchet. Could be used for anything from sizing pieces of wood to be carved it for opening crates. Of course for camping they're also great as they've got a thin bit and an actual hardened hammer poll.
There are a few places that sell leather, Tandy Leather and Hobby Lobby carry it and if you have a horse tack store near you, they sometimes carry it for saddle and harness repair. Thanks for watching!
I personally found Mr. Gibson's thoughts on batoning to be very interesting, and kind of a breath of fresh air honestly. I've never personally been a fan of batoning after having a few knives break as a result of batoning over the years. So I am quite surprised an enlightened to find that Mr. Gibson basically shares the same opinion. I would love to hear him elaborate on the topic some more! Thank you very much for sharing!
James Gibson is a great guy. He is a knife maker (Knob Creek Forge). I've been trying to get him to start a youtube channel for a couple years. Thanks for watching!
Hey thanks for the info! I will definitely check out his custom knife website (assuming he has one) and possibly buy something. He seems like a very nice, down to earth kind of guy. I'd love to get the opportunity to study with him someday. =)
Dan, he teaches class on his own and he is the Bushcraft/Primitive skills instructor for Randall Adventure Training. He does have a website and he is on facebook under his name and knob creek forge. He has been a great mentor to me over the past few years.
Nice video. I make that often, but we call that fried cornbread in my family (Tenn). When we have fritters, the batter has whole kernels of corn, and is fried in a lot more oil. They look very much like apple fritters.
Nice video. I used your pattern to make a horizontal carry sheath for my Mora Pro S from a small piece of 8-9 oz. Because the Pro S blade is only 3.6 inches, I shortened your pattern by about an inch, but kept the basic shape. I elected to sew the entire thing, so I added a welt to keep from cutting the stitches. I was happy with the result, and after wet forming, the knife has a nice, snug fit.
Someone dropped a bunch of leftover yarn on me. (I don't knit.) I used this video to make myself a net from the yarn, turned it, did a bit of braiding, and have an expandable, re-usable bag. Not recommended for much but grocery shopping, but only tutorial that made sense to me. Thanks! Can't wait to try it with actual usable cordage!
Try adjusting the gap at the top. There is a free download sheet with instructions in the video description. Hope it will work for you! Thanks for watching!
Have you tried char cloth or charcoal using fire sticks? Maybe putting some of the charcoal powder in the base board then adding the friction to see if it will light up..... It might help in trying to get a coal with less effort.
I'm not an expert But I would call that Natural paint ! Good info . I feel the need to place my hand on a rock and spit-spray ochre over it to tell people I was there , or this place has good hunting . ✔️☄
