Hey lovely!! Absolutely loved this vid! You are just awesome and such a nice guy and I am so chuffed to call you my friend!! Your channel deserves to grow steadily and I’m absolutely delighted for you!!! #TheCanvasMan what awesome goodies!!!!! 😍😍😍😍 And I LOVE that tarp!!! Does it come with a Sherpa? 😂🤣😂
Thank you so much for those kind words Karen! I feel truly humbled! As for the Sherpa, they cost extra as they ship from another country! 🤣 🤣 🤣 Again, thank you so much, and good luck in the draw! Cheers, James 🙏 💚
Fantastic gear you make, very clever and so well made. Looks like you had a great night out in the woodland there mate, special. Thanks for sharing and well done with the 1k subs. Cheers, Warren :)
Camp set up looks pretty good. In a way I envy the bushcrafters in the UK a bit. While there's no free to use, crown land there, like we have in Canada, you guys can be a bit more liberal with your in camp cooking, food carrying and storage. Not calling you out specifically, but I've watched a lot of UK YT bushcrafters and you guys are lucky that you don't have any apex predators to concern yourselves with. Keeping food in and around camp while wild camping here, can potentially be issuing an invitation to any bears, coyotes or wolves that be roaming the land around where your camp is set up. While not a huge concern (bears are typically on then shy side) , it is one we have to factor in; especially if we're in the same camp set up for a few days/nights. I too have been making a lot of my own kit, and have for years. It's really a great way to bond with your gear when you take the time to source the materials, and fabricate it, and then use it. Anyway, great video. Keep it up. #TheCanvasMan
Thank you for that, it's good to know there are others out there who also make their own gear where they can, and you're right about the bond you get with self-made gear (I suppose you're conscious of the time and effort you've put into it? At least that's one of the reasons!). Here in the UK we are very fortunate that the only real venomous animal (and it's not even an apex predator!) we have is the Adder, and even then, they're pretty few and far between! I'm planning on a multi day hike and camp over in the mountains of Romania later in the year, which are home to bears, so will be purchasing bear spray over there, and will restrict the cooking to dehydrated meals for safteys sake! Thanks for following along, and all the best! James 🙏 💚
@@SussexOutdoors Just finished making a 5 x 7 waxed canvas ground sheet from scratch today. Nothing like doing it for oneself. You have to try and get over here for a trip to try wild camping in places that are still, very wild. BYW dehydrated food is a good start, but only as afar as pre-cooking storage in concerned. As soon as you add that water to the foil packet and the aroma of that food hits the breeze, all bets are off. Keep your food in a scent locking bag (along with any toiletries) , well away from your campsite, and make sure to clean up everything after cooking/eating. Bear spray is probably the best option for your situation but also consider a mini air horn, or even bear bangers if they are available where you are going. Best of luck and have a fun and safe trip.
Thank you! Think I'll have to give it a proper going over and do a tarp tent configuration with it out in the elements! Good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
You've been here all this time! Now that is dedication! Thank you so much, It's really appreciated! Here's to many more videos, in many more locations, with plenty more food (and beer), and lots of new gear to show! Good luck in the draw and all the best to you! James 🙏 💚
#TheCanvasMan Well done bro , another good vid ,straight forward and down to earth , its great to hear the wild life in the back ground ,👍keep the vids coming ,, stay safe
Cheers! I make my own burgers (but have yet to put the recipe on the channel... Hmm, there's a new video idea! 🤔) all the best and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
#TheCanvasMan Wow, what can I say? Give yourself a good pat on the back!You may some lovely gear there ,and the tarp has come out so well. Great video as always ,and keep up the live streams they were entertaining😊
#TheCanvasMan. Congratulations! Love to see this content. Just discovered your channel as it was recommended cos I watch Camping with Josh, Kent Survival and Simon Bloke in the woods. Really enjoyed the video thank you! Looking forward to getting a spot of wild camping in locally with my 13 year old if I can drag him away from his pc 😂
Welcome aboard! You just mentioned 3 of the channels that got me into doing this myself as soon as we got out of lockdown! Hopefully you'll get out with your 13yr old! (you could always turn the Internet off for a short spell? It normally gets them out of their room! 🤣). Thanks again and good luck in the draw! All the best, James 🙏 💚
Hi James, that looked like a lovely camp and I really liked your setup with the canvas tarp and bedroll, good skills sir. I've got a very similar Thornhill/Outhaus setup and you've inspired me to get that out for an upcoming camp! How did you get on just sleeping on the bedroll, did the wool give you enough insulation? I usually use a section of foam roll mat or debris bed when I use mine. Oh and many congratulations for passing the 1k milestone, very well deserved indeed, your videos are always enjoyable and very well produced. It's all because #TheCanvasMan can! 👍
Hi Barney! Thank you so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it! As for the roll mat, I did bring a slim self inflating mat to go on top for that evening, as I knew the temperature would drop to not far off 0°, and there really wasn't enough leaf litter to collect up to make a suitable cushion between me and the ground (and there are no firs there, so spruce fronds were out of the question as well!) I do plan on taking it out again to a different bit of woodland that have firs, oaks, beech and birch, so should have plenty of detritus to gather and pile up underneath for its next outing... Plus the weather will be a little warmer (hopefully!) so I'll have lest chance of the ground sucking my life force away overnight! 🤣. If it's any consequence though, it's the same construction as the ground cloth sit mats I make, and I've been using them over the last 7 months with my bum on the ground, and not felt the cold through it... Cheers mate and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
Nice to see you out using the new kit James, all your handmade gear looks decent. I enjoyed the video, your style of filming has certainly come on since the early days. I was thinking about the pillow pouch on your blanket, you could also slip a sleep mat into it to stop slippage if on a slight slope 👍Lee
Cheers Lee, much appreciated! It's good to hear from others about any improvements! I thought I might be getting better, but that's purely subjective, so it's great to get a second opinion! As for the mat, I didn't think about sticking an air mat in there... Maybe some rudimentary cord or strap near the foot end that would aid in less slippage? Cheers again mate, and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
I may have just stumbled on some quality "MADE in the the UK" camping kit..You're slightly bonkers...This could be my new go to bushcraft/camping channel..Looking forward to the next episode...Ps: When is that tarp available ?..#TheCanvasMan
Cheers for finding me and following along in my little corner of the Internet! That has got to be one of the best comments I had... Ever! (and yes, I pride myself in being 'slightly bonkers'! 🤣) Glad you're enjoying the content, and the listing for the tarps will be up soon on www.outdoorgearessentials.co.uk! I'll be posting some sample photos with the different colour canvas I can get hold of... Planning on making to order as it's a lot of material to store and work with, and I've only got a tiny workroom! 🤣. All the best and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
#thecanvasman very generous of you mate, congratulations on the 1000 subs, cool video, cracking tarp ,will these be on sale soon?, will you be doing one with pullouts on either side at all ?, cracking idea with the frying pan/foraging bag ,never seen it done before, is all this available through bushcraft essentials?, nice chilled camp ,what it's all about, good health and safe travels my friend, cheers craig
Cheers Craig! I'll be putting up some colour swatches on @outdoor_gear_essentials for the tarps very soon. I'll probably make them to order as it's a lot of fabric to buy and store (let alone work with!) in my little creation-station that is my office at home! Hadn't though of wing panels to be fair, but it's definitely something I can look into! 🤣. As for the rolltop bag/foraging pouch strap, they'll also be up on the website soon... I didn't want to make any more before I showed it on video just in case it didn't go down well... Apparently I was wrong! Thank you so much for following along in my little corner of the Internet, and good luck in the draw! All the best, James 🙏 💚
#TheCanvasMan Hi James, I absolutely love your video's, you're definitely the kind of bloke I'd hang out with, I'm so happy i discovered you in December 2023 .
Hi Rob! Thank you for finding my little corner of the Internet and following along with my little adventures! Appreciate the kind words... If you're ever down my neck of the woods (haha, pun!) I'm always up for a beer and a waffle! All the best, and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
Thank you! I'm going to refine my stitching a little, and then get some colour options up on the site. The idea will be I'll make-to-order for these, as they're so damn big! 🤣. Cheers again, and good luck in the draw. 🙏💚
#thecanvasman just found you have to say though you was good would like to see a bit more cooking shelter was fantastic keep it up buddy all the best jon.
Thank you for coming along for the ride! As for cooking, don't worry, there's plenty more cooking videos on the channel, and plenty more to come! Unfortunately on this one, trying to juggle filming the video, and hosting a livestream as well, I kind or ran out of time, so cooked while on the livestream (and forgot to set the gopro upto film it! 🤣). I do live proper food, so there's going to be more delicious grub coming soon! Good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
#thecanvasman. Congrats on getting to 1000 subscribers 👍 and fair play for such a generous give away as that’s some great kit there. Please keep the vids coming and I’m sure this channel will grow a lot more.
Thank you! I know it's heavy (and I do have "technical" camping gear for lightweight camps/hikes), but there is something so tactile about canvas, wool and leather! All the best mate, and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
#thecanvasman. Great video once again James! Love the new intro and bloopers mate, looked like a great camp and blue cheese burgers all day long 😂. As always, stay safe buddy and see you on the next one 🤘
Cheers Paul, thought I'd try out a new intro, and the bloopers kind of happened naturally (was the first bit of footage I reviewed... It made me laugh, so I thought I'd add it in! 🤣 🤣. All the best mate, and good luck in the draw! Cheers, James 🙏 💚
Another great video chap . Been a sub for 6 months now still need to catch up on your earlier vids you did #TheCanvasMan p.s is there a video on how you prepare the cordage loops mate
Thank you for following along! I really appreciate it! I haven't yet done a video about the cordage, as that was the first time using my 'quick deploy' ridgeline... And it's had a extra adjustment since that video! I've added it to my list of things to do and I'll try and get out in the next few days and put a little instruction video together! All the best, James 🙏 💚
That was an amazing burger, to be sure! Thank you for the kind words, and thank you for following along with my little wilderness wanderings (and waffles!) All the best, James 🙏 💚
Well, I specifically made them with ample room for up to a size 14 shoe, I'm an 11 to 11 1/2 depending on footware, and I have loads of room inside (the down expands to fit your foot!). @mrwildwales has a pair,, and he's a size 12 to 12 1/2, and he's happy with the fit, if that helps you decide? All the best, and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
Congratulations on the subs, well deserved in my book. Love this kind of camp. Nice and simple. Also a big fan of waxed canvas gear. If it's not a trade secret, can you say where you get your fabrics from? I'm looking to make some kit for myself, so always on the lookout for good supliers. Cheers, and all the best for the future, Pete.
Thank you chap! And I'm very happy to share where I buy my canvas from, I'm no gatekeeper, and always happy to help others if they ask! I use a company called Walker & Hawkes for my canvas. Would be interested to see any creations you make! All the best and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
#TheCanvasMan Great videos and great kit James, use some of it aleady, hope the bedroll and canvas tarp become available soon, Keep up the good work mate!
Cheers mate, great to hear you're using some of the gear already! The tarps and bedrolls will be up soon, I need to make stitch samples and photos and all the blurb before they go up... But it won't be long! All the best and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
love the look of the tarp james, looks quality.
Cheers Mac! Will really need to put it through its paces next time! 🤣 All the best, James 🙏 💚

Thank you chap! And I'm very happy to share where I buy my canvas from, I'm no gatekeeper, and always happy to help others if they ask! I use a company called Walker & Hawkes for my canvas. Would be interested to see any creations you make! All the best and good luck in the draw! James 🙏 💚
