      if you like the combi can concept, check out the husky combi can... has storage for tools/spare parts on it. and the absolute best part is the push to fill spouts that auto shut off when the saw is full. theyre the shit. had one that someone stole out of my truck... but i will be ordering another one

      @bearwoodcraft3591 we can, so long as it's red in color... and it's not even that they are illegal, just not allowed to be sold here in the US... and btw... I'd rather have my guns than a stupid combi can... on a side note, you non Americans think its an insult when you comment on the fact that we have the FREEDOM TO DEFEND OURSELVES WITH WHATEVER WEAPONS WE CHOOSE. It's not. We are proud of our second amendment. Ironically, what's the first thing Ukraine and Isreal did when they were under attack... oh I don't know, rescind gun control.

    Something I keep in my kit is an eye dropper bottle with white vinegar in it. Put it on the bee stings right away and it helps to neutralize them. Give it a try I think you'll find it works quite well. I like your idea of the Gatorade bottle tops on your oil and gas can.

      I was throwing rocks at a nest while the boss was pushing the landing one morning. I thought I was at a safe distance, 50 or 60 feet maybe.
      Well, the trajectory of the last rockI threw was (I swear) followed by a hornet who clocked me INSIDE of right nostril. I tried to block it with my hat, but it was too fast.
      I looked like some sort of monkey the way my face swole out.

    I see you have the grizzly peak harness I have but I did not like how sat on my shoulders. I felt like we’re it comes together was always ridding to high up and would pinch and the two front points would dig into the corners of my arms and chest. I swapped out to a set of framing harness for carpenters and it’s much better. The harness has thinner straps they seem to fit me better. I did like the grizzlies pad for carrying the saw on my shoulder but as I’m not doing a whole lot corset cursing it’s not crucial anymore. Love the aluminum scabbards for the ax and my wedges. I’ll keep in mind the bottle trick if I pick up any felling work on the side. Good video man.

    I’ve used the Grizzly triple scabbard for a few years, it’s decent and well built, only real gripe is if I bounce around or take a tumble id sometimes lose a wedge…. And you can’t really stick double taper wedges in it, the bigger 4 wedge pouches look like the ticket tho 👍
    I also have their axe scabbard, I’ve beaten the hell out of it and it still holds its shape, I actually find it a fair bit easier to get my axe in and out than on my fancy weaver axe pouch….

    As someone said, vinegar is very good, your own pee, or a very strong solution of 60 to 70 percent sugar ,also if you burn plaster gel.the gel keeps it cool and stop oxygen getting in and stop the burning /stinging effects. you also carry a small bootle of pine tar or Birch tar with you or in your truck works very well. and wont cost you nothing when you have your lunch in the forest or when you have a small fire, make your own. can you talk what you wear inside your boots to keep your feet warm and dry, and why do you guys wear those type of boots, i know you need to have steel toe caps boots to proptect your feet. keep up the good hard work, some cn only dream what you guys do evertyday and its bloddy hard grit work. cheers Hans

    You mentioned "Stro's", I'm assuming you mean Gransfors Bruks Stroax axes. Put them in your gun safe! They have become collectors items. The last 5 lb. Stroax that I saw on Ebay went for $767! I have several of them. Think I paid around $40 for them back in the late 70's, early 80's. They have now become this old fallers retirement plan. LOL
    Oh, and we have found that if you repeatedly swish Jim Beam whiskey around the inside of your mouth and then swallow it, after a while you barely even notice the yellow jacket stings. Also, if you need attention in a crowded hospital emergency room and don't want to wait around, tell them you got stung on your tongue- you'll get in really fast! I know. It happened to me once.
    Learned this the hard way too. We were packing in in the dark on a hoot owl day and I stopped to free up some coffee. Yep, you guessed it. Right on the end of "Mr. Happy". Even with the early shut down that was one of the longest days of my life. LOL

    Awesome rundown, but any insight on boots? Not as sexy, but massively important tool!

    Why can you no longer get 2in1 jerry cans in the US? Here in Western Canada we call them Combis (short for combination). Just curious why they are so hard to find now for you guys? I saw your other vid saying they dont make them anymore.
