It’s great to see the different techniques on construction…as with any other technique. Great job in presentation, I will definitely consider all I have been shown in my new construction. It’s come a long way since my time in light infantry scout platoon! Trying different techniques in “dry runs,” should be interesting with the wife and in-laws 🤦♂️ We learn something new every day…
I like hoods, but it's not about or the other, have both. My top has a hood but I still wear a hat. Sometimes I need to put my hat further down on my rifle and pull the hood onto my head. I recommend both. But if weight is an issue the hat has more flexibility.
Being that the hobby lobby veg is cheap plastic, it's pretty reflective and would probably glow under IR. I don't have IR just thermal so I can't confirm.
Trying to build a ghillie on an extreme budget lol. Could you speak me using an old uniform, cutting into little s shapes, and using that as a jute substitute?
I'd like to see more of the lightweight/hybrid techniques. Others mentioned the hoods. The hat is very versatile. I've seen a couple loops tacked onto uniforms at the shoulders, upper arms top of chest to just add a touch of veg and some jute. What other minimalist methods can be done to achieve reasonable concealment without the full burden of a full suit or poncho? Always dropping the good stuff, Tosh. It's appreciated.
Yes! That would be awesome. I’d like to see what you would do with the body section of the ghillie suit. Quick question though, how did you attach the fake plants to the hat?
I know this is old so this might not be seen but what would be a good base suit and say to start adding veg to? Anytime I go to purchase something it’s just full fake veg Ghillies
Well glow is everywhere dude just set up to it not hard but I made a jute braided twine it's heavy for winter type but looks good to me Ive never Had it tested yet really So I'm in the works for on video my self in couple of months
Well I'm a little embarrassed. I took my daughter to hobby lobby once and saw the fake plants and thought "I bet that would make an easy ghillie suit".. Then I thought "man I'm an idiot for thinking that". Turns out the sniper instructor likes it. 🤦🏻♂️
This is great info and thanks for what you've done but one thing for you and everyone listening because it's a very common mistake... "Calvary" is the mount on which Jesus was certified. The "Cavalry" is who comes to save your butt.

Single handedly the best stuff on ghillies
LOL.., yep.
Underrated comment.
you did him dirty
"single-handedly"
One of the best comments I ever heard on building ghillies, is don't try to make it look like something, make it look like nothing 👍🏻
Dude i totally didn't even notice the hand until half way through! You've adapted very well
Wow, that looks great. What a time saver. Thanks for the information.
Glad it was helpful!
I've been wanting to make one. I'm glad I saw this before attempting. Thanks for all the time and effort you spend to educate others.
Tosh is a boss. That is a very nice hat.
Thanks Tosh! And thank you for your service
Good info. I have not made a ghillie hat in years. Your video motivates me to make
another one. Thank you!👍😊🇺🇸
Hobby lobby
Love from Taiwan!

Thank you for your service and sacrifice,,, I hope u have a blessed day,,
Great info, thanks! Looks great and like you said much faster than using burlap. Looks like I have a new project.
The dirsty spray is so great! Thank you so much,I gonna get a spray today.
Thanks this helped me to pick materials and in planning on how to craft my ghillie hat and suit.
I wish I had seen this video a lot sooner, so many great ideas for building a ghillie suite. Thank you so much 👍
Great info and I followed his instructions and believe me it works great. Now the ghillie jacket
Awesome vid! Thank you!
You bet!
Excellent video! Thank you for your service.
Hey Tosh, can a viper hood act or function in the same way as a separate ghille hat? What are your thoughts on the viper hoods?
I'm curious about Viper Hoods too... They are much smaller and less cumbersome than a Full ghillie, and more effective than a hat!
I like hoods, but it's not about or the other, have both. My top has a hood but I still wear a hat. Sometimes I need to put my hat further down on my rifle and pull the hood onto my head. I recommend both. But if weight is an issue the hat has more flexibility.
A good source of jute and burlap is old potato sacks if you can find them, I used the loose woven burlap to help paint my rifle (civilian).
Love ya brother
Thanks for your knowledge and time
Love all your stuff Tosh thank you for sharing your info
I keep a viper hood in my bag and it works good but I like the simplicity of this. Great video thank you
Did you make your viper hood or buy it?
Thanks for the information!
You bet
Great video guys
Thank you for everything!
Hi Tosh, do you think a hybrid of the old and new school methods would be more effective, or do they each offer their own advantage separately?
Entertaining and educational as always thank you so much.
Awesome video! You’ve given me inspiration on how I’m going to make my hat. One question though, how did you attach the plants to the hat?
How do you suggest adding the rubber bands?
I do alot off aitsofting what would you recommend for painting a rifle really enjoy your content & knowlig
We have rifle painting videos already on the channel. Thx for posting
Yes we made a video on that a few months ago. Check it out.
Duracote or alumahyde are good options for spray paint
Thank You 🙏
Great information, many thank's
Thanks, that was awesome.
Thank you😺
Is the hobby lobby vegetation IR compliant? What about a comparison against natural vege, normal, IR, and thermal? thanks guys!
Being that the hobby lobby veg is cheap plastic, it's pretty reflective and would probably glow under IR. I don't have IR just thermal so I can't confirm.
Hobby Lobby doesn't sell mil spec anything. Except for maybe Paracord.
Your lawn is perfect.
"I am not trying to look like the bush I am", @ 13:37. 😎Rock on.
Great video. nice info.
will you make a video adding real vegetation to that hat? Curious how you execute that. Good content thanks.
Hi Tactical Hive! Could you talk about ghillie capes, like Viper Hood and similars?
Hi Same, I'm not a fan the cape. Poncho is better in my opinion. Capes in my experience just get caught on every thing.
Sweet. Hobby Lobby in a whole new light.
Gold
that was awesome
2 thubs up, good job, great ideas, A+
Trying to build a ghillie on an extreme budget lol. Could you speak me using an old uniform, cutting into little s shapes, and using that as a jute substitute?
its hard to pick the burlap pieces by hand
Do you suggest a ghillie suit to be larger or tight ?
Nice trick on turning the hat around.
I thought you made a 1980s mullet boonie hat.
Business in front and party in the back.
Awesome!
Sombrero upgraded
might wire wheel jute? pneumatic wire wheel
Hey want me to put a full suit together let me know.
I'd like to see more of the lightweight/hybrid techniques. Others mentioned the hoods. The hat is very versatile. I've seen a couple loops tacked onto uniforms at the shoulders, upper arms top of chest to just add a touch of veg and some jute. What other minimalist methods can be done to achieve reasonable concealment without the full burden of a full suit or poncho?
Always dropping the good stuff, Tosh. It's appreciated.
Yes sir!
Yes
Yes I think tons of people would love to see you making a full suit
Yes! That would be awesome. I’d like to see what you would do with the body section of the ghillie suit. Quick question though, how did you attach the fake plants to the hat?
P. S. Great Time Saver
I thought i was the only person who frequents michaels. Lol. Its always half of the price as things online or in surplus stores.
I'm sure I'm a complete moron but I didn't notice the lack of hand until Tosh pointed it out.
Mesh size plz give me an idea thank you
I can’t find the boonie he’s using, does anyone know where it’s from?
I know this is old so this might not be seen but what would be a good base suit and say to start adding veg to? Anytime I go to purchase something it’s just full fake veg Ghillies
Do I just add like fish netting to some camo clothes and a hat and go from there
Like the idea that u had fake plants
I just stripped hessian sacks and dyed the stands..
Well glow is everywhere dude just set up to it not hard but I made a jute braided twine it's heavy for winter type but looks good to me Ive never
Had it tested yet really
So I'm in the works for on video my self in couple of months
Well I'm a little embarrassed. I took my daughter to hobby lobby once and saw the fake plants and thought "I bet that would make an easy ghillie suit".. Then I thought "man I'm an idiot for thinking that". Turns out the sniper instructor likes it. 🤦🏻♂️
Where you get the plant lol
Hobby Lobby is my secret sauce! Ha!
This is great info and thanks for what you've done but one thing for you and everyone listening because it's a very common mistake... "Calvary" is the mount on which Jesus was certified. The "Cavalry" is who comes to save your butt.
It's like nuclear and "nukular" lol
Thanks. For correcting pronunciation.
Grab your Garands! The grammar nazis are here!
Rad hat
I find that my jute particles fly around and get in my damn throat and make me cough every now and then. Did you ever have to deal with that?
I hate jute. My 1st sniper school was the US Army course. I had to build the suit from scratch. As a pampered Spec Ops guy that was a nightmare.
Was asking my gf wtf you buying fake plants for. Now I know to keep an eye on her.
US Cavalry? Damn Tosh, you're dating yourself
Over 27 years of service.... things come and go.
They're now U.S.Patriot Tactical. Good luck.
Do you have to worry about a hound smelling the paint?. I guess body odor is worse.
The dog will smell everything. You are what it’s looking for. Thx for posting
You answered your own question.
Dogs are smelling human scent and vegetation crushed while you move, basically nothing you can do so dont worry about it.
手が無え
Not bad, just fast-forward about 6-8 minutes past the plug for tactical tailor.
Hahaha... thanks
