This is truly one of the videos of all time.

great now the hawk has rabies too.

Cool beans. Welcome back Red Shadow.

Awe snap lol

Wow that was awesome lol glad u got the chance to catch it on camera,awesome stuff man,thanks

I just subscribed! Hit me back, please. Have you used a sling at all? kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJCldqltqNdjhsU

Holy Cow! Good thing you were recording!!! That was epic!

You win some, you lose some. I guess he won't be acting all weird anymore......Take care, Bluefin.

That was cool! Glad you posted a video again, guess your still kicking! Are you back for a while, or just passing through?

That was crazy lol do more of these videos hahaha

I think is a great job, well done!

streching around a rope is easier. I use a.grill full of punk over a fire makes more smoke and see two similar since skins together to save time. great video though. I'm about to retire forme this disapline.

Really cool!!

its cut-sue not kudzu...and you call yourself from the south..pfft...lol

What I like is this isn't a video on the first time trying it. You've actually done this before. Nice work. Can you boil water on a fire in these pots? You said you cooked on some, like a skillet I'm guessing, the question is do you know what makes these ok to cook on a fire with? Apparently you can't do that with all clay. I'm trying to learn the difference. Thanks.

Neat. I love natural, rustic items. Thank you for sharing your talent.

I love weaving with kudzu. awesome video

Very good information, liked the one on the forge simple and resourceful.

Great little forge. Thanks for the walk through.

Well done mate, if old mate from far north comments its gotta be good , cheers,

How do you get all the hair off?

the ash and water(lye////alcoline or base---HIGH PH) solution is called"buck" hence the name buck skin....if you want to lock the hair in ,you'll need to use a mild acid like vinegar or diluted battery acid(LOW PH)....be carefull with strong acids ,,strong vinegar works just fine....i use the ol' indian methode of "wet salt salt soak" with vinegar .then i flesh,then another soak ,JUST IN VINEGAR WATER,then i stretch and dry,then i tan.....after i've got all the salt out....brain tanning, in my opinion is not safe.i use a mineral oil mix of my own--------secret-------have fun and good luck.....jda

Nice video now I know I can make cordage from mum yakkas

I thought I was the only one that liked blacksmithing and primitive stuff

thanks for sharing!

Great series! I love the amount of information you give. I have a few questions though. Is there a purpose to the smoking other than color? And when you stretch the hide is that similar to how some people stretch it on a frame? Appreciate the time you put in to make this.

Much talk, no forging.

What are some primitive inks/dyes I could possibly make in Illinois, I live right outside of Chicago, and I'm new to primitive stuff I think it's cool

Hey man! Contact me. Thanks!

if I did this right could I make a crock for fermenting foods?

Nice video! Great meeting you guys at the flea market today on 280!

Very informative videos, thanks! Does the wood ash soak smell really bad? Also I noticed you removed the membrane from the flesh side but for rawhide do you have to leave the grain on on the fur side?

Thanks for the blacksmithing lesson...Very Cool project.... I really like your set up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you have a badass channel brother,subbed! if you get a chance check mine out please

eat weeds. good video brother. it was nice to meet you!

Good job. We have native clay here as well. I have a bowl that I made from the native clay that turned out quite well. I fired it buried in sawdust under a campfire. It did end up with a couple hairline cracks from me removing the hot bowl too early from the ashes of the firing fire. But it still holds liquid fine without leaking. I processed my clay about the same as you did here.

Right on man thanks for sharing flattening down the too coil and folding it over. I never saw that done before. My rims are never straight this could help. on another note I watched the African Potter's video looks like they make one coil at a time so they don't dry out or need slip. good video man!

cool video! I have been experimenting pit firing. I like how you take such a long time to heat your pots no thermal shock that way. I find when my clay is good quality really sticky plastic they crack easy. I am wondering if you mixed some of the red sandy clay with the light clay what the results would be. your cracked pot I like to powder them for grog or temper. I like that powder better than sand. oh yea some times I use damp leaves around the pots with fire on top instead of sawdust. Aloha

I finally found a photo of that wild geranium you are asking about in the video. Tried to remember any real use for it, but can't remember any. uswildflowers.com/detail.php?SName=Geranium%20carolinianum or this kind, www.google.com/search?q=wild+geranium&biw=1800&bih=819&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&sqi=2&ved=0ahUKEwjK5LnitrXLAhVH4iYKHYDHCWYQ_AUIBigB&dpr=0.75#imgrc=8l2JaLpePSD9SM%3A You ask if anyone recognized this plant, but wanted a data base for you before I posted it. There are more than 1 kind of wild geranium, don't know much value for this plant, will read more about it. They grow everywhere, and are plentiful.

Very good. I'm not sure exactly what one that is at the end there. Reminds me of a fools parsley leaf or a carrot family leaf maybe caraway? But not queen Ann's or hemlock.

Awesome set up. Just the way I like it cheap, home made and easy. Thanks I'm going to be looking around for those items. Especially a blower like that.

Nice set up! I am wanting to get a forge myself! This is a big help! Thanks for sharing!

Awesome set up!!!!! I love it!!! That anvil is VERY cool.

Very nice. I've been thinking about doing a plant video. The plant at the end looks like a Carolina Geranium. The roots can be dried and powdered used externally to stop bleeding.

that is so cool, necessity is truly the mother of invention!

Just a guess but looks like a Cranes Bill or Carolina Geranium (Geranium carolinianum). Not sure because the Cranes Bill is a Florida native so most likely not. It could be a Musky Stork’s Bill (Erodium moschatum). Or it could be the Stork's Bill (Erodium cicutarium). They are edible as far as I know but your mileage may vary as to palatability or allergic reaction for any of these. There are several varieties of each kind. There are different varieties of both Geranium and Erodium. See links below. Research it and don't make a mistake. ;-) Thanks for sharing. rcrec-ona.ifas.ufl.edu/weed-science/weed-id/carolina.geranium.shtml plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=GECA5 www.eattheweeds.com/erodium-circutarium-geranium-carolinianum-two-bills-you-want-to-get-2/ P.S. I don't mess with them. Geraniums have a foul odor and not something I would care to sample regardless. But the next person may not feel that way. Also the Poison Hemlock similarity makes me stay away from it. Kind of like Wild Carrot. Same thing.

awesome video of the carolina wrens, I gotta learn the art of foraging!!!!

How COOL is that?!?! When are you going to hammer something out? If you ever make a steel, like in flint and steel, I want one. I'll only accept it from you if you allow me to pay for it. Thanks!

cool set up man thanks for sharing

let me know what turns up on the mystery plant
