Lonnie shows how to make an easy and quick camp pot bail. This one homemade camp pot bail will fit many different sizes of camp pots that will enable one to be able to suspend a formerly bail-less camp pot over a fire. This one bail can be used on many different pots since it is removable. Suspend a metal water bottle, a metal cup, or many other billy pots and kettles with the same bail. Does your cook or mess kit have handles but no bail? Maybe this solution is what you have been looking for. Hope you enjoy and find this video useful
I got this idea from Bushcraft USA in the "Self Made Gear" sub forum.

Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc

Lonnie, you put the " BUSH " back in bush-craft. There are all too many VLOG's that exist just to feature expensive gear from one of the pricey outfitters, while your VLOG's feature frugal innovation for the common folk... keep up the good work ... ATB

You have the warmest intro greeting on the internet; I always feel valued when I come to view your videos. Fantastic information. I love cost effective solutions. Kudos on getting a titanium set for $4!

In the excitement of learning new things and becoming more self-reliant, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that we're also trying to "smooth it". This is a great video Lonnie. Thanks for sharing!

@frankartieta6752 6 лет назад

Outstanding point ! That is exactly what I would try to do ! If you're going to be dumb you better be tough ! I'm getting too old and weak to be tough !

@tphvictims5101 6 лет назад

Lonnie and Connie, you people have things that many people desire. Peace of mind. I’m 64 but I only look like im 97. That cable is used in fire protection systems. I know. The fishing industry uses the ferrules for steel/titanium leaders. Supposedly the copper grips the material much better. Don’t believe me, check it out. You can get bulk ferrules from your tackle supplier.

@bigfatpear 6 лет назад

what a great little bit of kit. and i'm glad to see your using a traditional alabama hammer.

@gregsummers7350 6 лет назад

Wow, Lonnie, that is simple, effective and compact. Well done. Greetings from Greg in Thailand

@patlowney2834 6 лет назад

That was creative with the cable. Necessity is the mother of invention.

@greencraft4783 6 лет назад

A simple (but very effective) solution to a problem I have encountered so many times over the years. Thanks Lonnie this is one I'll be using for sure.

@DannyWalker1949 6 лет назад

Brook did a Great Job, on being my friend Lonnie. I laughed out load🤣😃on this video. Lonnie you did a fine job on explaining "How To" make these Bail's for almost any Pot, Pan, Cup, Water Bottle, etc. Thank You for this Great video on this.

@PD-ul4ve 6 лет назад

Lonnie, your timing is awesome......just purchased a Stanley stainless pot and was about to drill holes in to be able to hang it over the fire. Sunday evening is my time to catch up on new Bushcraft videos I subscribe to, and low and behold, there you are answering my very dilemma......great video. Thanks for all of you common sense and innovative ways to adapt and overcome. God Bless you and Connie p.s. I miss living in Alaska :)

@martinoutdoors6941 6 лет назад

Nicely demonstrated. I’d seen and heard of that idea but yours is the best demonstration of how to actually make it.

@garryfoote695 6 лет назад

Another great idea Lonnie, thanks for the video!

@robertsbushcraft 5 лет назад

"It would take a little bit of fiddling" - yes sir but no drilling in my pots or cups! This is a fantastic idea and an answer to my some of my cook set issues. - Gabriel

@bushcraftnorthof6012 6 лет назад

I almost cried for your Swiss Army knife, but it did the trick! What a neat rig. I'd carry that even with my bail equipped pots, in case they break. I used to cut very large diameter cable with a cold chisel on steel plate years ago, changing cables on hoists and boat haulouts. Just in case someone doesn't have good snips. Wrapping in electrical tape first should prevent fraying. Take care, Lonnie.

@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival 6 лет назад

You can't even tell that I used the Swiss Army Knife screw driver. It is perfectly fine. I however have done cosmetic damage to that screw driver implement in the past by trying to pry on my electric starter gearing on my snowmachine to get the starter to engage the engine. Once in a while the starter will "stick" and not pop out that starter gear and so it needs to be pried out while turning the starter switch. The rapidly spinning gear ground off the finish of the screw driver in a couple places. The job that was being done in this video however was fine for the screw driver.

I just made one yesterday, removed the factory bail on my small Pathfinder pot so it’d nest inside a larger pot. Perfect! Thanks Lonnie.

@blackhatbushcraft 6 лет назад

@NewHampshireJack 2 года назад

Lonnie & Connie, Here in the Philippines, many items we take for granted in the US are very difficult to obtain. When assembling our kits, we have heavy pots with bails for base camp and chose an inexpensive set of five nesting stainless steel pots with flat lids for hikes. These pot hangers truly made our set complete. I was able to order 10 meter lengths (approx. 33 feet) of stainless steel cable. I purchased the smallest diameter available that offered the "double barrel" ferrules needed for this project. We made three assorted wire bails and there is plenty of cable and ferrules remaining for the future. Thank you both for this great and informative video.

Hello Sir, I've been watching your vids for years..I know my opinion doesn't mean much but I'm going tell ya anyway..Stay original and real..I checked out the girl in the woods vid you suggested and I wasn't impressed at all..Yall are worlds apart on this RU-vid thing..You do you and let her do her..You're awesome 😃

@kenchan5047 6 лет назад

Great idea Lonnie . Saw the video that Brooke did , didn't know that you could stuff so much stuff in your beard . Dave is in AK already . Perhaps you guys could get together , they are in the Fairbanks area (we had planted that seed in Dave's head when he passed through here on his way north ) . ATB , Ken 🇨🇦 .

@whtwolff658 5 лет назад

Great adjustable bail. I saw this several months ago but forgot to save it. Finally got atound to making one for my pot. Thanks Lonnie & Connie

@joybickerstaff194 5 лет назад

Hi ya Lonnie/Connie! I came across this and had to watch again! It doesn’t seem like it’s only been just two months sense I’ve seen this video, it seems a lot longer than that, maybe it’s because I’ve watched several of them, several times. As well as Connie’s cooking. How can I not, y’all have taught me a lot of great and useful things, ways of cooking, the views are awesome, not to mention that the two of u are just down right pleasant people to know (even if it is threw RU-vid) and if I forget how or what on anything, u guys are never far. Thank you both!!!

@aliceg9571 6 лет назад

Lonnie your “cool”!! That was very nice of you to mention the video from Girl in the Woods. I had not seen it til now. Your a good sport. Wouldn’t expect less from a guy like you. Keep on making your informative videos that I always enjoy watching.

@stormyboy129 4 месяца назад

Amazing. I was looking for a way to hang my cooking pots above campfires without them tilting. I just made this with an old bicycle cable and it works great. In combination with a length-adjustable cordage, you can control the distance between your cooking pot and the fire... I'm about to cook amazing meals in the wilderness. Thanks for this genious solution.

@drewdaigz2055 3 года назад

I have seen many “pot bail hacks” since I’ve gotten into bushcraft. Not only is this the easiest, it is the cheapest and most efficient. Just got the parts for ~$2 and it fits my canteen kit as well. So for all wondering, this is not only for round camp cookware!

@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival 3 года назад

I recently watched a video from an awesome individual where he makes all kinds of "hacks" for the small Stanley cook set. One of those hacks was how he puts a bail on the cook pot. I thought it was rather ingenious. It may interest you as well. Stanley Cook Set - Hack #7 - No Drill Bail Handle ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oe8Pjzu4paM.html

@AirstripBum 5 лет назад

Very nice! This is the solution I've been looking for. Thanks Lon!

@davidharvey5672 6 лет назад

Now that is clever! Using the lid upside down makes a great way to keep food warm that you've already cooked or defrosting the next thing. I use a dish or plate on my boat cooker which only has a single tiny gas flame. Thankyou Lonnie and Connie.

@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival 6 лет назад

I am told that other countries may not have the type of hardware stores that we have here in the USA and so a bicycle store may serve their needs. Thanks.

@potskifilms 6 лет назад

Thanks Lonnie. I like that, simple, handy and easy. Good sense of humour there from yourself and Brooke. Hey maybe you should do one of her, but it would likely mean you shaving and wearing a strappy summer top :-) :-)
