I Tried to Build a Camper for $0

  • I’m driving across the country and building a camper as I go. And I’m constructing it out of nothing but free items.
    This journey was a harrowing one with lots of ups and downs along the way, but I came out on the other side a changed man with a tiny home I built for free.
    Thank you to everyone who helped out along the way and let me mooch off of you. This project would not have been possible without my friends and family.
    This USA road trip was one for the books.
    Thanks to my friends over at ‪@bigtimebigtimebigtime‬ for including me in their video today. Go subscribe to them!

      Technically... You can get the resources for free from people throwing them out on the likes of Facebook marketplace (and other sites). There's also spaces that will let you use their tools, but they might want you to say... Donate some wood or metal or something (which again, you can get for free if you keep your eyes on marketplaces), or maybe they'll just ask you to put a shift or two in and help them around the workshop in return. For obvious reasons, they don't really advertise that. But if you ask really nicely, there's a small chance they'll say yes. :)

    First, a safety advice: Never wear gloves or a hoodie while working with rotating powertools.
    Second, a medical advice: If you ever chop off one of your body parts, store the part cool (refrigerator) but not too cold (ice). And DON'T allow moisture to come in contact with the tissue. Otherwise the amputated part will soak and decay. If you are next to a kitchen, grab a plastic bag (those to store food in) or a Tupperware box. Seal it properly and put the container on something cold. Between some cheese slices for example. Thank me later. Please like the comment so everyone can learn from his mistakes. Therefore the finger won't be lost for no reason. Great video btw

    The water denaturates the proteins of the wound, making it impossible to reattach.
    Just keep it cool and clean.

    This video has never been so relatable with the host cutting his finger off, doing a trip with 2 broken cars and having AAA never showing up twice. I really appreciate the dedication to showing all the ups and downs of your trip, this was an amazing video to watch! Haven't seen a project like this since ur last road trip for donut.

  • @joaquim4296
    @joaquim4296 Місяць тому +7

    For future reference if you cut an finger off or any part of your body off, put it in ice! Not water, water has micro organisms and you just take the blood off the part. In ice the finger remains intact "mostly" and plus it's more probable that it can be reinplanted that's why they put organs in ice to preserve it.

    • @SmolPotatowo
      @SmolPotatowo Місяць тому +1

      You probably don't want to put it directly onto the ice either as it's too cold for the tissues. You want it fridge temp, not frozen.

    • @joeymathews1291
      @joeymathews1291 Місяць тому +1

      Not directly on ice, best would be a bag or Tupperware with ice and then the piece of finger wrapped in paper towel or a rag to prevent direct contact and freeze (and therefore kill) the tissue
