[@831maverick]

Amazing bushcraft skills, Wez. As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge. I look forward to seeing more videos...

[@stxrobstar]

Zip ties? Brilliant! So simple yet I never made the leap to that use for them. Great Video series.

[@69Grunden]

Your shelter is looking good so far. I still like how your saw turned out.

[@KittenisKitten]

on the Zip tie thing, The lovely guy obviously is getting a little older, and he said it himself, he's tied thousands and thousands of knots. He using Zip ties as way of making easier on his hands. Also for speed of the Demo, Great Video thank You for sharing, You might save my life one day with this!

[@trued4691]

awsome build, great ideas and motivational. Love the work man!!! Small good ideas go a long way in the wilderness.

[@chizzlekankitten]

Love your videos. Will continue to watch

[@mariaotero5601]

Outstanding job kudo's!

[@heartwick]

i had to use the trypods to make a small fens around my camp today becas the cows loved my seater tree shelter haha

[@leongaines]

Great video. At 6:39 what are you using to tie the side beams to the center beam? Para Cord or plastic zip lock cords? Thank you.

[@TonyTonyClifton]

Wez, thank you for the video. Your roof poles seem like you knew exactly how long to cut them. How do I do this before I have my roof framed in?

[@ZombifyIt]

Well I bought my tarps, working gloves, sand paper, foam, crank led lamp, wire and my ZIP TIES today, I'm ready! :D (yeah I'll buy the other stuff when I'm actually there since I can't fly with knives on board :P)

[@RDPproject]

I would love to know where your doing this. Is it private land or crown land? cos I can hear kids in the distance.

[@thegarden65721]

I have a question. Is this video posted differently than the rest of the series? I have been recording all of this series but 2 of 7 will not record with real player for some reason. Can you help? Thanks, Great series by the way!

[@Izaana030505]

What kind of tree/wood are you using or what would you suggest...I am in Michigan/USA

[@werewolf212001]

what is the lenth of the zip tie that you are using i am trying to find the right one for this and have been unable to do so due to not knowing how long the zip tie should be. or how many you need for this shelter

[@Peachwhaler26]

awesome work

[@AndrewG975]

Forgive me for being a little pedantic but arent using unrecyclable cable ties a bit out of kilter with forest dwelling? Otherwise great vids

[@JakoyahAlexis]

what does you use to tie the beams together

[@XxxFlameBoy651xxX]

Only if we could do a survival weekend just me and you god that would be awesome !

[@Honken]

Won't the wood driven into the ground rot after a while? How long is the lifetime of a shelter such as this? I've lived in cities throughout my life, my knowledge in these things are limited.

[@Seabeaux13]

Are you using zipties for the lashings?

[@greenhorns99]

too much of a perfectionist. and also, what can you use if you don't have a poncha, tarp, or etc?

[@alissawanderoo2348]

what kind of knot shoud you tie for these shelters?

[@PeterNordBushcraft]

Zip ties- fast yes; your private property, your choice, otherwise it is litter. I say it's better to use jute twine or cotton rope, biodegradable is better in the long run.

[@jkd185]

good stuff.

[@omegatonizzo]

The guy can make his own saw, I'm sure he can scare up some vines and tie it all up with them, zip ties were for demonstration.

[@XxxFlameBoy651xxX]

@Honken A long time ! It depends on how well and how you build it ! If you build it right it will stay up and last a respectable amount of time

[@GuruzGT]

@AJCospa yes, i suppose they are called birds. they tend do to quite periodic noises.

[@mryellow123]

Simple builders trick for trigonometry of a right angle without sin/cos/tan, if you measure out a triangle on 2 walls, of lengths 3 and 4, then if the angle is 90deg the hypotenuse will be 5.

[@Nea3_3]

ya the zip ties are an awesome idea

[@stevenlent8772]

its a long term survival shelter do you realy think it matters if you use rope or plastic. i choose plastic it last longer and i dont have to carry 500 hundrad feet of it. so way to go old timer keep on truckin .

[@doughnutguy82]

have you thought that he may collect the ties and discard of them properly?

[@jaiwhitehead]

This is how London got started.

[@mcgoo721]

"every time you add a bit of wood, it tightens right up."

[@1s1t1e1v1e1]

Yeah, it's hilarious to see them driving a car with a " no war for oil " bumpersticker.

[@MrPdante]

I'm going to add zip ties to my kit...

[@dka6877]

Good ole welsh

[@maxtheman2874]

Why not use zip ties anyway.... all the power to you if you want to do it "traditionaly" but i think using zip ties is a fantastic method to secure things

[@MrMelonMonkey]

@ZombifyIt you can easily smuggle a knife-blade in your belt-closing (? in german "Gürtelschnalle") onboard a plane and of course offboard :P but perhaps it is indeed better to buy it where you want to go when youre there because you dont want to use the knife on the plane and the risk of being caught isnt worth the 12€/$/(I have no key for Pound on my keyboard) for a new knife... i wish you good luck where ever you go to now... if you do so. maybe you were just joking :D

[@RUFFMIN]

@Seabeaux13 he is indeed young one :D

[@tomassergeant]

Why zip ties? its plastic = not good for the environment.. unless you take them with you once you leave.

[@Noirbreaker]

Are YOU kidding ME? Who goes out into the wild to survive and doesn't prepare for it?

[@AJCospa]

Am I the only one who noticed that the background sounds are the same throughout the ENTIRE video?

[@emilshere]

I never liked the lean to style of shelter,. I want to be covered on all sides... makes me feel safer and cozier at nite. I dont want to be visible and just be under a canopy, Know what I mean? I like being fully surrounded by walls.

[@1colerock]

You still around

[@20351MA]

Superior.

[@BootzBTrippin1]

Yeah probably not the best example, but making cordage takes...a lot of time..

[@heartwick]

@ZombifyIt make a knife out of bone lolz

[@coolguy1813]

1:19

[@ieatpilgrimsto]

@Andythecat11 Sounds to me like he's only using them in this video to save time due to the limited video length that he has on youtube

[@BillHinson]

This is a (HOW TO VIDEO) the Zip ties are so he can put it up faster you people need to think before you type and make your selves look stupid

[@BillHinson]

I can see some if you people just don't get it

[@heartwick]

@vaguer75 all i need is a knife and my shoe strings

[@kimjones6050]

R U kidding me a shelter in the wild to survive how many people carry zip ties with them be real

[@johnshorba]

Hell is real so please repent! What is your life it's here as then gone, then we are either in hell or heaven for the rest of Infinity so please I'm not perfect and I make mistakes but we truly need to repent hate sin and try as hard as we can to stay away from evil, if God Holy and true was sitting next to you would he accept drugs, heavy drinking? Bad movies video games thoughts or words? No he hates anything bad its evil! The God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob

[@1s1t1e1v1e1]

Zip ties= polluting the forest? Compared to How much material went into the house/apartment you are typing your little KZbin bitchings from? That's like complaining about a grain of sand being too large from mt. Everest.
