Bushcraft Chair - No Cordage!

Cordage is one of the harder items to reproduce well in the outdoors and in a survival situation, it is at a premium. So, any project that we can accomplish using minimal means, such as no cordage, which makes our lives or the lives of others more comfortable is a good idea. I had a lot of fun coming up with this idea and it is a combination of several ideas put together.

Awesome job! I also always enjoy it when Spirit decides to make an appearance. Well done!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you! 😄

[@ARaskyOutdoors]

that's good idea...less work needed but very practical

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you!

[@hobofab]

Always creative and entertaining. Nice work!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks so much!

[@pascalmarti4403]

thank you for translating into the metric system. most us tubers dont do that. very nice.

[@WayPointSurvival]

You're welcome. Hoping it will help the channel have a more global reach.

[@pjmnash]

Brilliant, may use that someday! A+ from an old teacher. ⭐

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks so much!

[@pojankloppi42]

Even though this is an old video I must say that I really appreciate you helping us using the metric system, since my thorough understanding of the imperial system is not so good. I often get confused with feet and inches, so thank you!

[@WayPointSurvival]

You are welcome! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

[@theresaconley5930]

That's a nice seat. Good job.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks!

[@starlingblack814]

Thanks James for this hack. I've made similar chairs using lashings. Not quite as comfortable I'm sure, but less chance of loosing your pants.

[@WayPointSurvival]

You definitely need a strong pair of pants for this to work well.

[@2heeldrivin431]

Yet another way to utilize my trousers... Great idea! Thanks for sharing.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you for watching and commenting! Glad you liked it!

[@MuskratOutdoors]

Good idea. I have forgotten to bring a chair camping more than once. A block of firewood works, if you have a saw to cut one, but mainly we just break branches without cutting them to length.

[@JamesGOutdoors]

That's really cool good idea.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you!

[@rottenkid389]

That's pretty cool. Always learn something new from your channel. Thanks for sharing

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you! I really appreciate it!

[@chiefkirk]

Slick trick brother James. Thanks for sharing pal.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks, Chief!

[@SurvivorMetalMan]

Awesome brother! Great demonstration! You make it look easy!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you, my friend!

[@cuegards]

You should hold Spirit in your lap and see if that bad boy holds up ;) hah. Fine job, Sir. Thanks for the new and helpful idea.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Well, there's limit to how big a stick you can thread through belt loops! I think Spirit would probably be the proverbial straw etc. Lol! Thanks for watching and the comment!

[@carol-anntrudell9990]

Unique! Great idea. God bless you.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you! God bless you too!

[@Malok03]

But, but, but... If I have only one pants ??? 😂😂😂 Thanks Great trick 👍

[@WayPointSurvival]

Well, you could sit in it in your boxers....Lol. Thanks for watching and for the comment!

[@MuskratOutdoors]

Steel Junky.......well, hope you ain't going commando!

[@hiddenflorida]

Great tip, thanks! One challenge I can see would be finding a stick thick and dense enough to hold your weight, but small enough to fit the loops.

[@WayPointSurvival]

True. A lot of it depends on how big the belt loops are. Otherwise, it works very well and is quick and easy!

[@derealovesurvival7549]

A very good idea thanks for sharing God bless you always...

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you and God bless you too!

[@ParaBellum282]

Goes to all the trouble of building a chair. Dog comes along and shows how to do it in one simple step.

[@WayPointSurvival]

[@WayPointSurvival]

Northern Ontario.

[@martinpecheur8506]

[@jimchurch7559]

If you were good at sewing, you could make something to use and save your pants.

[@WayPointSurvival]

That is true! But since I always have a spare pair of pants with me when I go out on longer trips, and I don't want to carry a piece of cloth that is useful for only a seat, I just use the seat of my pants...lol.

[@alessandrofirmani700]

Why use some cheap cordage when you can ruin some pants

[@WayPointSurvival]

Well, not sure what you mean as the pants were not ruined and were just fine afterwards, but thank you for watching and commenting anyway!
