Servus Felix, hat er die Idee von Dir oder von dem eigentlichen Erfinder? Nur Spaß. Ich würde mich über Eure Zusammenarbeit freuen auch wenn ich kein Englisch verstehe. Gruß Sven
I saw that technique on Felix Immler's channel a week ago and it works better than expected, doesn't come loose even when I put stuff onto my backpack and move and rock it around a lot, really cool!
I’ve seen this before… Very handy! If you substitute an old-fashioned round clothes pin for the toggle, you now have a quick release! Works like a charm!
Dan, it’s incredible how many if these quick tips you’re able to continually demonstrate! I would’ve thought you’d run out of ideas a long time ago. 😂😂 Seriously though, I’m sure I speak on behalf of so many when I say thank you for taking the time to share what you know and love. ✌️Our tool boxes are looking better than ever.
Use this a lot after seeing it on Felix Immler's channel a few months back. Switched from a bowline though due to the propensity to come apart when not under constant tension. Now using an End Bound Single Bowline; was developed in 2009 to replace the figure-8 loop in climbing due to the tendency of the figure-8 to seize when under load.
This is awesome. I’ve been doing a combo bowline with a pull through around a blanket, tarp, etc, and then pulled across the length of the roll into another trip around, ending in a truckers hitch. It works but a little funky to accomplish. THIS little gem just fixed that! Love it! Thanks dude
Been using a bowline at the end of a 6' rope for 50 years. That's a very interesting technique that I am going to apply to couple other projects. 👍still in the woods. No fear, be safe everyone.
I, too, learned this a while back from Felix. Not only do we use these toggles in the bush but I made some for the wife and now I see them in the garage and around the house. They're great for holding coils of electrical extension cord, garden hoses and rolled tarps.
I no longer have my puff jacket and my wife's puff jacket out of control when we go out, especially when we're in the car or out at a restaurant. This is definitely a city survival skill. Thanks so much, sir.
Two weeks ago I was looking for the optimal way to strap stuff to my pack, and didn't find a satisfactory solution to it, and here you go and make that video for me. I think we have some connection Dan. Quality material as usual 🥰
So, in essence it's a modified Trucker's Hitch that doesn't slip because of the toggle and you don't have to tie that little not at the binding point. That is ever so cool and I most definitely will be using that. Thanks for another tool for the toolbox. Very simple very easy! Y'all have a great day and stay safe and keep your powder dry!
Hah.. I just had to figure out how these work again less than an hour before finding this video. I usually need to look at it for a second before undoing it if it's been awhile. Winter camping ain't very feasible for me at this point in life so I'm happy to get back to it.
Love the ideal! Works great. Made some for an inflatable kayak we use while camping. Cedar toggle, bowline, & figure 8. Appreciate you man, keep up the great channel.
Sppokey ! Watching your excellent video I was reminded of a FI Victory Knox video where Felix used an implement to make a hole...and Hey Presto who ìs first up? Felix ! Both of you make simple, practical and useful vids, hope you can combine...Cheers
been using these since i was kid in the 70s, if you make the toggle slightly longer just over width of hand you can use it as a burden strap for carrying firewood etc.
Great video!!! The ratchet is something I haven't seen before. I subscribed after the first time I watched you, and have enjoyed your humor and all the neat stuff you teach for four years. Thanks for what you do.
I need to try this one, I think it would work to compress a sleeping bag too. Been using tautline hitches in a similar manner to attach gear to packs and for compressing stuff.
