Drinking water straight out a burn with not much of a worry at all, only in bonnie Scotland 🏴 🌄😍 we are spoiled my friend. Coming from here, it’s a crime if you don’t love the great outdoors.
Less than a minute in and I hit the like button. Showing the correct way to use a bow-saw, top marks that man, safety is always paramount, and it means more chords on the banjo can be played. Good job on the horse, especially the jute twine. :)
Cheers Si, you can thank Mr Mears for the safe bowdrill techniques used in this video, i do like the use of my fingers haha. Thanks for stopping by mate, take care
Nice one Andy. Keeping the craft in Bushcraft.....all power to you! Apologies for the lack of comments recently, but I haven't missed a video yet. Take care and ATB.
Cheers Wade, I'm managing to sneak a few hours in at the minute to do bits and pieces. But i think the saw horse will come in handy for working with the bigger pieces of timber. But also easier for bucking up firewood. Thanks for stopping by mate, hope you and yours are well. Take care.
Well deserved meal after all that Hard Work With Hand Tools, Did a swell job on your Sawhorse, Andy ! Hoping weather holds for your next project. Big Scratch for Rusty ! Happy Trails From The Maritimes In Canada ATB T God Bless
Great Part 2 Andy :) The saw horse turned out looking good ;) I like the look of the Wisport pack mate. Is that the Racoon pack you mentioned a while back? Thanks for taking the time Andy.... it is always great to catch up with you, all the best, Mark :)
Cheers Mark, yeah I'm happy with how it turned out in the end. The pack is the Wisport Reindeer 55l, it's really comfortable with heavy loads, sits the weight perfectly on the hips. I'm really enjoying using it. Thanks for stopping by mate, take care.
Yup, it's a great pack, really comfortable to carry. The side pouches aren't the best though, I've modified mine with British Army side pouches attached with molle. Thanks for watching, take care.
I bought the auger bits from a DIY store, then a friend welded on the steel tube to the shaft. If you can weld or know someone who does, it's a much cheaper option that the ones that get sold online. I've even bought a couple bits, dirt cheap on ebay and done the same thing 👍
It would really depend on what you were making which would determine the diameter of the hole you needed. In this video I used the largest auger bit i had to bore the holes for the legs on the saw horse. In all honesty it would probably better being bigger in diameter, but at this time the 26mm is the biggest one I own. I got them from my local hardware store, they were on sale, they were just standard auger bits that fit into a power drill. But a friend of mine welded the steel tube onto tops so i could use them as scotch augers. Hope this helps mate, take care.
Couldn't tell you mate, that area of the forest got logged. But building base camps isn't for me, I prefer to move around to different locales. Thanks for watching 👍
fantastic video Rusty and the Woodsman. I killed that thumbs up on your video. Continue to keep up the good work.
The music from jumpstreet got an immediate like & follow! 🤘💯🍻

I like the sawing method to make the chopping easier that's actually new to me awesome!
Its Ray Mears mare, I've learned alot from him. Thanks for stopping by, hope you're well, take care 👍

In the beginning It looked like you were sawing your thumb lol
Yeah that was my magic trick 🎩 lol
What would be the standard basic sizes (SAE & metric) for the scotch eyed augers and wood augers/drills? Are pilot holes necessary for woodwork?
The Wisport backpack is made in Wroclaw,Poland
Yup, it's a great pack, really comfortable to carry. The side pouches aren't the best though, I've modified mine with British Army side pouches attached with molle. Thanks for watching, take care.
Where did you get your scotch eyed augers from?
I bought the auger bits from a DIY store, then a friend welded on the steel tube to the shaft. If you can weld or know someone who does, it's a much cheaper option that the ones that get sold online. I've even bought a couple bits, dirt cheap on ebay and done the same thing 👍
What augers are you using
I buy them from DIY store then weld on steel tubing
👍🏻
Cheers James, thanks for stopping by. Take care 👍
5:44 He starts using the auger
What diameter of auger is the best to do these kind of tools outside?

Hi, one is 26mm, the other is 18mm 👍

Hi Philip, it's a Brisa Trapper 95 knife. O1 Tool Steel with Birch handles. Hope this helps, thanks for watching. Take care 👍
So what does the dog eat
Dog food
Bad idea to drink water that hasnt been cleaned
I drink water from sources that come off the hills. It's always been clean, never had a problem.
Wrong saw 😱
It did the job 👍
It was good until i saw him do his lashings....that rig wont last a week....you can do better than that
