What a cool idea! I love these ideas. We have crafting projects for our children during school summer break and this sort of thing is perfect for them to try or at least help make.
Hallo Felix, interessante Konstruktion. Vor allem diese "Schwalbenschwanz-Verbindung" finde ich genial. Hab ich so noch nicht gesehen. Kann man sehr vielseitig einsetzen. Vielen Dank dafür 👍
Absolute genius with the way you wedged the cross members. Thank you once again for your inspired contraptions. You are truly a unique individual. Keep it up.
Extremely creative idea, but for me, I would need at least a 3 inch diameter branch to prevent it from sinking into soft ground. A tray and coffee cup holder would be a nice feature as well. Felix, you are always inspirational. Thank you.
Geometry for the Y-branch angle, friction fit for the cross-bars, opposing side bar mountings as an ergonomic design. Felix, all you need is a cup holder, and some coffee!
Geile Siäch - voll geniali Idee!! Das Problem mit dem Ding ist allerdings: du brauchst nen festen Untergrund, sonst fixierst du dich selber am Boden wenn das Teil einsinkt... Als Zusatz nochmal so ein Querbalken, aber unten am Fuss (zum Draufstellen) :-)
Now, cut a similar joint for the upward most vertical post which is parallel to the ground, add a horizontal plank to fit that joint and you now have a mini work table, dining table too. I like it.
That is a really great idea! What a great way to create a very usable chair in the backcountry. Thanks so much, my friend, you come up with some of the best ideas!
Would love to see a survival sort of video where you take minimal gear, like a tarp and a swiss army knife, and make shelter, arrange food and make fire.
Your innovations are always next level Felix. Always great content, your the soul reason why I have 3 SAK's, I even carry 1 with my Leatherman. Once again thank you so much for sharing, looooovvvveeee your videos
Clever friend, Felix! That looks so easy which is genius, and well thought out. It's so easily made that any of my daughters can make one (each have a swiss army knife with a saw) for when we arrive at our forest to camp this summer. It's a lovely video and I thank you from my heart! ❤ I wish you all the very best with many blessings. ~Wendi 🌻
Cool project that made me think about using it around camp, which made me think how could I add a small table where I could prepare food and eat it? I think I could use split sticks, cut grooves for support and a longer one (carved) could attach to the sticking up part of the stool. What do you think?
very nice! since I'm low weight, it gives me the idea to do one with bamboo, it will be super light to carry in back pack, since I don't need "strong" wood for my case ;-)
Terrific video Felix. I just spoke to my wife last week about a one legged chair that was used when tending a fire to create charcoal. This looks much more comfortable and much more stable. Your creativity is inspiring. Thank you very much
Hallo Felix, I like that creative new chair design a lot. It would also be even cooler if you extend that design and add a little platform at the top of that stick. This platform can than be used as a table to put you plate or pot on to eat. Kinda like a chair and table in one.
Moin, wenn Du es jetzt noch fertigbringst an dem Holm nach oben (wie Pimmel, sorry) ein kleines Tischlein, natürlich abnehmbar, hinbringst, dann ist Deine Hocketse absolut Perfekt: ! Dein gruseliges Englisch ist zwar für mich nicht nachvollziehbar, als alter Alemanne, aber Deine Videos sind einsame Klasse, genauso wie Deine Bücher! Weiter so! Gruß Rolf
I am a Roya Rangers Commander. It's similar to the Boy Scouts. We do a lot outdoors and last Christmas we gave them all a Victronox knife. They are always looking for something to do with them.
Brilliant Felix 👍🏻Same principle as a shooting stick or perching stool/stick... I have similar in the form of a collapsible walking stick but I'm still going to attempt your version on our next camp in VS👊🏻👏🏻
First thig that crossed my mind is DaVinchi bridge. This works in the same principle. Mutual support. Basically its three legged stool incorporating your own legs as other two. You are going with the theme once again Felix. God speed!
Hi Felix , creative and innovative as always. A.I.could never have come up with this but my bushcrafting skills won’t match yours so I might slip a tin plate down the back of my jeans, just in case ! Thank You also for posting in English. Us Brits are rubbish at languages. Best Regards John
You are literally one of my FAVORITE people in the world, Felix, and the world needs more people like you!!! I Hope we can be friends in HEAVEN someday, Brother! GOD Bless you and yours 💜🙏🏿 Paul
"On this day... Today in 1897, the modern “Swiss Army Knife” was patented as a Schweizer Offiziers- und Sportmesser - a Swiss officer’s and sports knife. The knife gained its current Western name after American soldiers in WWII found it too difficult to pronounce the traditional German name of “Offiziersmesser”.", Manning Publications
Very interesting. In February 2023, I searched to make a table and I found this video : ua-cam.com/video/v9vFFpNEicg/v-deo.html But my goal was to maintain cross wood sticks without string. So I discovered by myself 2, 3 methods to proceed. But I didn't have the idea of the dovetail link. The only think that I'm not for in your method, it's to use batoning to split stick in 2. But very good project.
That's really cool, but the desire for a chair in the bush is to take the load off my back. This doesnt support your back muscles, so if you needed to work in a sitting position it's perfect, but to relax, I'd use your cloth chair design. Great stuff though, thanks!
Brilliant, Felix! We tried the "milk chair" back when I was in scouts too, but, for me, that was about 55 years ago. Yours actually looks more stable. It also looks like you could flatten the rails a bit, carve a propeller and use an old bicycle inner tube for "rubber-band power" and have a small airplane to see who could make theirs go furthest! :D
What Swiss Army Knife do you prefer for your builds? In everyday life i carry the Explorer since it has the tools I need. In bushcraft though I would like a pointer.
As I camp each year, I always start the base of an elaborate chair in the backcountry with instructions for adding on to it over the season until an ornate, elaborate, totally biodegradable piece of fine furniture comes to fruition. I left only the following written Note "You Complete me. - Chairy Maguire". All of this never happened.
That chair would impead the blood flow in your legs within a very short time. A much simpler solution would be to learn the Asian Squat. It's a natural way of sitting for human beings. And doesn't require anything to carry around or to construct. Watch a toddler. They use the Aisan Squat instinctively because that's how human beings were ment to sit for long periods of time. Done properly your feet of flat on the ground. Your knees are in front of your chest and your butt is off the ground. Adults who didn't grow up in places where this is common will have a hard time maintaining the pose for long periods. But the good news is that you can keep practicing this pose and the more you do it. The longer you can do it. When I was a young boy I sat this way for very long periods of time without any ill effects. In Asia where people have grown up sitting this way their whole lives. You will see elderly people sitting like this everywhere. It's better for your joints and flexibility overall. And unlike sitting in a conventional chair nothing is pressing against your legs arteries and restricting the blood flow. Once you are accustomed to sitting this way. You are never dependant on finding a chair or something else to sit on. You simply squat and relax.
I hope it doesn't snap, because you know where that one wooden leg is going to end up.😱
😂😂😂😂 you are right!
Let's hope not 😅
Honestly, this seems incredibly dangerous to me.
Cool build. I might go with a thicker Y branch as well.
I winced when I read that!

From a DaVinci inspired rotisserie to a new monopod chair design ... there's seemingly no end to your creativity! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much dear Erwin!
Are you really that slow?🙄 Thats a terrible chair.😂😂😂
Hallo Felix,
interessante Konstruktion. Vor allem diese "Schwalbenschwanz-Verbindung" finde ich genial. Hab ich so noch nicht gesehen. Kann man sehr vielseitig einsetzen.
Vielen Dank dafür 👍
Danke für das Lob!
Absolute genius with the way you wedged the cross members. Thank you once again for your inspired contraptions. You are truly a unique individual. Keep it up.
The most comfortable device for taking a crap in the woods. It even has a holder for toilet paper. Brilliant and thanks again Felix.
Yesterday bought Spartan - will be good for this work! Have a great weekend!
Thank you Siegfried!
Genial Felix! Das ist ziemlich verrückt und cool! Wow! Mit diesem Stuhl bist du immer parat, ausser im Schlamm ;-) Liebä Gruess, Manu
Absolut richtig :-D
Extremely creative idea, but for me, I would need at least a 3 inch diameter branch to prevent it from sinking into soft ground. A tray and coffee cup holder would be a nice feature as well. Felix, you are always inspirational. Thank you.
that would be great and it could be used as an arm rest and it would take away from the suggestive look of the stick as it is.
@thankmelater1254 lol. Good point, I didn't think of that.
You are absolutely right. Thanks a lot for your ideas!
Everything ist already invented…but, with a Swiss Army Knife an Genius mind there is always some bushcraft improvement.
Stay investive!
Your comment makes me happy!
Next: How to build a 30,000 square foot luxury castle with your SAK… 😁 Love your work Felix!

I was literally just searching for one of your older bushcraft chair videos and got the notification you posted! It was meant to be! 😂

Nice 👍🏻 (can this chair design be used to go #2?)

Thanks for watching this stupid video...
My wife wanted me to order 5 of these chairs for some reason. She also wanted the extended version for more "stability".
😂
Nice to see people trying new ideas but a traditional monopod chair can be made with just two branches.
Thanks for your feedback!

Thanks for your comment..
I wonder if youd be able to fashion this into a sort of back pack frame without too much modification
This sis a good idea!
When will the folding lightweight metal version of this design hit the market?
😂😂 Thanks for your compliment!
Hollow out the end to hold a fishing pole and a notch on the crosser to hold a beer and call it the happy chair.
Super idea! 😀
I got a good giggle out of ur thumbnail pic. Lol... thxs for that. 😊

This design only works if you have two legs🤣 your (2) legs + the branch provide the triangular stability... A bit like the Isetta bubble car... Kinda😂

Cool idea but is that worth? its loking spent a lot of effort. i can sit on the floor :)
of course you can sit on the floor. I like to do things with natural material. This is calling bushcraft
Well done !!!

As I camp each year, I always start the base of an elaborate chair in the backcountry with instructions for adding on to it over the season until an ornate, elaborate, totally biodegradable piece of fine furniture comes to fruition. I left only the following written Note "You Complete me. - Chairy Maguire". All of this never happened.
