A little collection of my bushcraft and survival camping adventures in Scotland along with some mountain biking and some other silly stuff. Really just my attempt to share my experiences and hopefully provide a little bit of instruction so others don't make the same mistakes as I did - and hopefully inspire some folks to get out there and give it a go. So subscribe if you're interested.

Long Term Debris Shelter - Shelter Update October 2024
I'd head that tree felling had started in the wood where my survival shelter is so went to have a nose on a Saturday morning. Did a deck clearing exercise in preparation for new leaves hoping that my shelter will survive the forestry operations and I can add new leaves in January - always like to have a class half full approach.

So it seems the owners of the commercial forest where my shelter is are planning to fell pine trees near my shelter. Went to check today and took the opportunity to re-season my steel pan which was badly needed.

Part one of a three day adventure, a relatively short (10 miles) wander along the Great Trossachs Path near Callander, Scotland with fully loaded 'Armageddon' backpack. Three very off-piste wild camps with pretty much all my time spent searching out a good spot, setting up/dismantling tarp and hammock, cooking meals and hiking between each camp - not to mention feeding a few thousand midges a h...

Finally bit the bullet and decided to downsize the shelter to make it easier to maintain and also make the back wall less steep so the leaves didn't just slip off as they have been doing. Took me three days and this video is the first day's effort. Part 2 coming soon.
Survival Camping - Tarp Drape Shelter in the Highlands
Переглядів 778 місяців тому
A little trip up to the highlands and a cheeky one-nighter on the hills in strong winds, rain and snow. I draped a tarp over a rock in about the only spot that was remotely sheltered from the wind. Not quite as luxurious as the glamping pod we stayed in the rest of the week but it did the job and I actually had a not bad sleep. The pod we stayed in was pretty awesome actually this is the websit...
Long-term Debris Shelter - First 23-24 Camp and Wool Blanket Sleep
Переглядів 29611 місяців тому
Out to my shelter for first camp of my Winter season - one night only. Just a quick tidy up to get all the branches and twigs cleared out the way to make collecting leaves easier later on. Also my second attempt sleeping in wool blanket which was interesting as it was a lot cooler than forecast overnight.
Long-term Debris Shelter - Autumn Leaves In Spring (almost)
Переглядів 194Рік тому
It's almost Spring and I've only just managed to get an opportunity to get out to my camp to get the leaves that landed in Autumn/Fall onto my shelter - way later than previous years. I only had a day and a half so had to go like a maniac to get all the leaves collected up and on the shelter wall. I took the tarp away completely this time so just leaves taking care of waterproofing duties now. ...
Long Term Debris Shelter - Shelter Trashed by Vandals
Переглядів 57Рік тому
First visit out to my shelter for a few months intending to clear the deck ready for Oak leaves falling. However, those plans were knocked on the head when I got there and found that some nice person had made some interesting modifications to my accommodation. It was still half dark when I got there hence the dodgy quality.

Hotpoint Washing Machine - Removing Stuck Transit Bolts

For some reason better known to Hotpoint getting the transit bolts out of a new washing machine is near impossible without divine intervention. Here's the three different methods I used to get them out. The third method 10:00 may be the best place to start tbh.

Oh my God play fan right? Are you afraid? How much you be there and who save you? What you feel before this happens? Just 23;00 not one 1hour? Under earth 🌎 &... Life!😅
This water now flows to the west, it used to flow to the east before that. Ezekiel 47
Now there's a man who's proud of his garden and rightly so😂
Thanks, it's looking even better this year.
Hey! how did the spark take so well before push in the birch bake over it? cheers!
At 4:16 yeah there was birch bark inside as well with some chunks of fatwood, the spark lit that first. Having more bark ready to drop in really helps getting the fire going. Thanks for watching, Andy
Brilliant. That was really helpful and quite funny. Thank you.
You're welcome, glad you got a bit of a laugh
Thanks for this amezing video
You are most welcome
Thanks honey ❤
You're welcome
Er, what slot, where..?
Did you find it? There's three of them I think on the rim of the lid.
@@waymarkerbushcraft Hi, no I haven't. I have managed to prise up the lid, but in doing so have messed the lid up rather. What do the slots look like..., how big.., where .. ?
@@andrewpreston4127 They are on the actual lid, just small indents only just big enough for a screwdriver. Unless they've changed the design in some way. You can see them quite plainly at 0:22 In fact if you pause around about the 1:00 mark you can see a slot clearly visible well contrasted against the paint in the pot.
Had same issue and had great success with one of those hook tools that have a screwdriver handle. I strapped the rubber and they came out easily. Previous attempts with pliers, wrench, screw drivers all failed.
“Stabbed the rubber”
Good to see you still out and about. How have you gotten on with bike packing, had a chance to be out lately
Hey thanks Ryan, not made much progress on the bike camping front for various reasons, not even fixed my bent up rack yet. And I've burned up all my holidays till October now. Maybe try and get out after that.
Wow this brings back memories! My family and I were there a month after you guys and I walked through these same waters though my mother and sister did the dry Canannite tunnel.
New subscriber 👍
Welcome
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. sub & 👍12
Thanks for watching, Andy
How do you get around the traditional laws of Scotland, being of course "cannae dae that here, pal" with regards to pretty much anything to do with self sustainment, but more specifically camping and lighting fires in the wilderness? Been a few times I was oot in the rain and/or on my bike and lit a wee fire (responsibly) to stave off hypothermia... some "do-gooder" strolling by mouthing off about better not let the police catch me and all that. Hope you never get bothered with such nonsense mate. Keep it up!
Yeah, that's one reason why I go well off-piste. The access code does allow for lighting fires though as long as you're not in a restricted area like a lot of the Trossachs National Park. Thanks for watching, Andy
@@waymarkerbushcraft Aye indeed mate. But we are talking about Scottish police here... they will find a reason to lift you even if you've broken no law. Glad you're not getting bothered with it, sir. Looking forward to the next video!
i dont see any Turkish dude
I limit myself to smocking mushrooms these days
Whits the 1st rule? Always have a midgie net bud
Truth is I just hate wearing them. Thanks for watching and commenting, Andy
How did your "magic mushroom" do? 😁
Haha, yeah it was a bit damp I think so didn't stay alight I'm afraid. I need to get one and dry it out properly to try that again. Thanks for watching and commenting, Andy
Absolutely brilliant footage of an area I've just got to know. Thanks for sharing your adventures and here's to many more!!!
Thanks Carolyn, I do love the countryside around there, should get out that way more often. All the best, Andy
I've done a fair bit of work around that area, and the midges have always been atrocious. You're either very brave or absolutely crazy!
@@Henry-C-Bukowski Probably more crazy I think. Thanks for watching and commenting, Andy
Legend, your eggs flipped easy as! like you said a spatula would have been great but you still flipped them, great video thank you sir 😁
Thanks for watching
How long is the tunnel?
I believe it's just over 500 metres.
Hi How high is the roof in there? 😮 I’m over 2 meters so..
It varies, mostly it is well over 2 metres but you would have to bend down a little in places.
Waste of time just addore water.
Ingenious 😊 thank you so much for the visit ❤to see this pure water alive again. It's astonishing! merci du Québec i subscribed 😊
This tunnel was built during the reign of Israeli King Hezekiah, before the time of the Christ.
about 700 years before Christ
Thank you id been trying to opem thia thing for 20 minutes 😅
You're welcome
Is this sharp machine?
Brilliant thank you ' worked perfectly!
You're welcome
You are/were persistant and scientific. I was persistant to get thru your 4 videos on this but I did pick up a couple ideas.
That's awesome. I hope you live somewhere where there are lots of hardwood trees and tons of leaves. Thanks for watching, Andy
Your explaining is booring.could have been better
Thanks, but there wasn't any boars in the video
Hi, I work for South Korean broadcast company tvN. we would like to use your video on our history show. Could you please let me know if we could use an excerpt from it giving the credit to your channel? Thanks :)
Sorry, just saw this. Yes of course please feel free.
So much work when multigrips did the job
Please elaborate
Yes. Long nose pliers worked for me too. But the manual wrongly says to use screwdrivers. Also I broke one of them using this method.
Thank you. I thought it was just me!
Great video thanks a lot for sharing
Did the Gihon spring feed the pool of Siloam also?
What is the silver/Mercury like thing shining along the water tunnel?
I think you are referring to the calcification, it's similar to the process that forms Stalactites in caves.
9 spoonfuls of coffee. About the same strength you used to make it at work 😮
Yeah, well you know I like my coffee STRONG!
I was there in 2019 with my church people. What a trip to remember, praise the Lord.
God's sake I thought I'm the only one having problem with this thing.
This is absolutely amazing 👏
Absolute joke. I'm 6'5" and 19 stone big man. I managed to remove two of the bolts. I can't physically turn the other two. It's going back tomorrow. Garbage.
Many thanks 👍🏿, very helpful. I've been moving in circles all day looking like a clown 😂... THANK YOU
I know the feeling
Amazing and the water is so pure thank you God and all your people
Thank u so much - how ridiculous i needed to google this!!
Glad to be of service. Happy decorating
I snapped one and had to take the back off thankfully it was sitting at the bottom of the machine.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. For everyone: read the chronicles of the kings about this. Author Lynn Austin. Second or third book. Wow.
bentone must be poured and stirred with wooden or plastic spoon. Not metal. Bentonite when comes in contact with water, it is negatively charges. Therefore people use sodium Bentonite to detox kidney and liver by drinking Bentanite solution
This was helpful thank you I just spent 10 minutes struggling!!
Thanks for your help, I am a tiny female trying to get these things out of my new Hotpoint today. I thought okay i am not strong enough but you validated me that the design is rubbish. Thank for your ideas. The comments helped also.
Thank you so much!!!
I was there last week and I did the dry part of the tunnel and was amazed. I couldn't handle this part lol but thank you for showing it. I loved visiting the holy land 🙏🏽 God bless you all
