Why Haven't You Invested In A Quality IFAK? This is my top pick, beware of low-cost imitations. amzn.to/2BDBgH0 (This link will direct you to my Amazon Affiliate page. Amazon pays a small percentage to Wrangelrstar for every sale of this item)

[@allegroweber]

[@jeffjohnson8443]

I need to replace my old IFAK and that looks like a good quality one. Thanks! I don't know if you've ever done an extension cord video or not, and I know there is probably a few thousand you tube vids on it but the only "tip" I can think of right now is this: whatever your preferred coiling method for extension cords, always start in the middle to make half as much work. If the cord is already strung out, I grab both plug ends and coil to the mid point bend. I mark the mid point so if I want to, I can coil from the middle and go to both plug ends. Halve the wraps.

[@MrRodneyCL]

Jeff Johnson look up the over under method for coiling cords or rope. Done properly you can hold one end, throw the coil, and it will not snarl but lay flat no matter the length.

When I was apprenticing, I worked with some old guys who didn't want to teach anything to the new guys because they thought you were there to take their job away. I also worked with some old guys who wanted to teach you everything they knew. Those are the ones you follow around and try to learn from. A lot of young guys start out in an trade or industry with a "know-it-all" attitude and they throw away opportunities to learn from people like you, who try to share your knowledge with others. I am thankful that my granddad passed on his experience to me like yours did to you, and I try to pass on what I know to the guys who work for me and around me. Always great information in your videos. Thanks.

[@davidbrotherton1143]

This is so very true. I found that if I showed a young guy how to do something, that I didn’t have to stop what I was doing to go do it for him lol. Sometimes they even improved my methods and I learned something as well.

When painting parts without the aide of primer you can heat the part (torch, oven, bon fire) and use the paint to cool it off. Its better than having it powder-coated.

[@mattmoore1311]

Short handled sledge hammers were common when I was a commercial carpenter. I mostly used mine for driving steel form stakes. The short handle does a lot of things, it gives your gut clearance, it makes it more usable one handed, and it fits in a tool box (back when tradesmen made tool boxes, instead of 5 gallon buckets). A good place to start is put the head in the palm of your hand, and cut the handle short enough to clear your arm pit. Just my two bits on shortened hammer handles.

Hi Cody, As a bow hunter who won't leave a broadhead arrow lost in the woods, I have found that bright blue is a color that is not common in nature and most easily seen when scanning for a lost item. My arrows all have a bright blue vane.

[@JohnnySpathas]

I use bright blues in this way as well- certainly stands out in a wider range than orange and neon green. And at night looking for blue just use a red light and it'll show up pitch black.

[@mikelastname]

Bright blue FTW. I wrap things I need to be able to find with a strip of retroreflective tape - makes finding anything in the dark a cinch.

I'm going to be honest with you, I'm new to the homesteading life and I am slowly learning. I just bought a wood stove and I am in the process of installing that. I just saw this video and fell in love with the chainsaw tool. I am felling my first tree in my yard tomorrow. I could definitely use a tool like terry's. I watch your videos daily and wish that you didn't have so much so that I could watch them quicker and have a better way to watch your videos in order. I am a huge fan and just recently found your channel. One thing I am interested in is being able to write you directly and if you are writing a book. I would most definitely want to purchase a book you wrote than one that you have recommended.

I set up our FD's roof saws by zip-tying a section of rubber hose to the side of the handle, then slipped the scrench into that. Worked like a champ!

I always drop the screw driver in the mud before I get to my truck, never to be seen again. I have used a short handled 6 pound sledge hammer for a long time. Great for putting in concrete foundation footing forms. Drive the stakes with the sledge and backup the the form with the sledge when you nail it. A lot faster. A real improvement for the chainsaw tool. I keep a spare in my tool box because I have lost more than one. Alot less wheel spin of you know for sure where the chain saw tool is. I'm on the way to the tool shed to make chain saw tool 2.0.

[@jerrymiller276]

When we first bought our land I spent more time than I liked looking for tools I'd laid down while working on whatever. So I bought a couple of cans of orange spray paint and marked them up well. Haven't lost any since. In my opinion orange works slightly better than anything else except, perhaps, cerise (fluorescent pink). The floor of our woods has many plants that turn red in autumn. Great tip on the chainsaw wrench! Thanks.

I've been doing tree work for most of my life. One of the first lessons I learned, as a wee little kid picking up sticks for gameboy games. You can always learn something new. Different experiences from different people with different tools and knowledge. My dad's experience with trees was very different to my current boss's. And it's awesome to learn all the little things.

[@gregdavis3246]

Hi Cody, You can re-sharpen files, buy placing them battery acid for a while . You have to check them often,. The acid etches the teeth on the files.then wash them in water to neutralise the acid. then spray WD40 or similar to stop rusting. The files come up better than new. So when you files get blunt don't through them away. Chain saw file are a good example. Be careful when using acid and where PPE.

[@scottmarshall6766]

I've got a few screnches I bought on a clearance for a buck (Not Huskys, but good enough, and fit - I tend to increase the number of tools like vise-grips, utility knives and screnches so I can find one when I need it, with limited effectiveness) and I epoxied block magnets on the side of them (PC7 or JB weld). I now need to paint them as you did yours, and maybe even add the clips, the paint is a easy upgrade though. The magnet works several ways, it will latch onto a tractor, the saw bar, or hood of your truck as required. It also is a keeper of bar nuts or can find them in leaf litter when you DO drop the nut in the woods (lovin my new Echo 2511t with a CAPTIVE nut!!) Good one, thanks to you and the inventor for passing on valuable knowledge!

[@deepblueyonderspage]

I got one for ya... It's not much, but very relevant. I've cruised timber professionally for a living now for over 25 years. I carried a loggers tape through the woods and underbrush on my belt longer than any one man should ever have had to endure. Here is an awesome trick!! The standard swivel hook that comes with a spencer loggers tape...which is cast or made of pot metal... they wear out pretty quick (if you carry one around on a daily basis like I do). They wear out either at the rotating joint of the swivel, or completely through where it actually attaches to the tape. Either way, the result is a tape being snatched off of your belt in underbrush, or literally falling off into the woods and lost while you are walking! I got tired of this happening, and losing the occasional tape over the years, and one day while I was complaining about the issue to one of my older retired cruising colleagues, it became apparent that I wasn't the only timber cruiser suffering from this aggravation. He shared some old school common sense with me that I have been forever grateful for ... a large marlin barrel swivel!! Take the crappy swivel that comes with the tape off and throw it away! Put one of the marlin barrel swivels on straight away!! First, they are made of a similar high strength steel as the tape's attachment point... so they will not wear through like the cheap pot metal does. Second... they are a barrel swivel!!! The improved rotation you get is pure satisfaction! A little oil... and the marlin swivel will outlast your tape!! I know this from experience... literally took my marlin swivel off of my wore out tape... to put it on my new tape. It gave me such a smile to do that. Also, the hasp on the swivel is big enough to go all the way around the "whole" belt... if you are in a hurry out of the truck or don't own a specialized belt, you have a bit more flexibility for stably attaching your tape to your person.

[@deepblueyonderspage]

And as for the horseshoe nails on the end of your tape.. instead of buying 4 or 5 pre-bent nails from forestry-suppliers… go down to your local tack store, and purchase and entire box of unbent ones for the same price! Toss em in your trucks tool box, and you will never want for another horseshoe nail for your tape... ever again.. for the remainder of your entire life... unless your co-workers find out.. then they are always pestering you for a tape nail.... but after handing out 40 or 50 over the years… there are at least that many left in the box!

For those who do electronics: For a new board: measure everything attached to power including the supply itself, then connect power, then slowly turn voltage up with current limit set just above board power estimate level to find if anything gets hot. Reason: I once used the 5v rail of a power supply only to find that it was 20V unregulated, cue loud swearing. All 5V peripherals were dead. 5V fixed rail was labeled with red tape and never used again. Never use fixed rails on new boards. Never trust old/shared electronic equipment given to you, especially at school, especially the oscilloscopes and power supplies, they are probably bad.

I love watching paint dry. 9:23 Long ago, I made a similar setup on my scrench by riveting a little ring on the end of the scrench. Then attached the clip to it using a split ring. If it gets caught on something and you pull hard enough, the split ring will give out and let you loose. And I have used long pieces of solid copper wire (just romex with the outer sheath removed) for painting hangers. Same idea as your brazing rods, but I have A LOT of short pieces of romex lying around, and you use what your have. Put a little 3/8 inch or so bend in the end of it, and your project won’t slide off the end while you’re trying to paint it. Of course, if you had done that, it would have deprived us of your great comedy moments.

Going to modify mine this weekend! Have a couple ideas on how I will modify mine though. Awesome idea!

[@flatoutintop23]

I carry a small wooden handled paint brush (one that will comfortably fit in a front or side pocket without jabbing you when you sit down!) to clean off the saw, bar and sprockets when sharpening out in the woods. You can give all the mating surfaces a quick brush off before reassembly, and if the bristles are short enough it helps to finish cleaning out the bar channel and oiling holes.The reason mine are cut short was because it was used for a prior job and the tips went hard from varnish or some such, so I trimmed them down by about half! And as a bonus tip, for the ultimate in multi functional tool efficiency, when the brush gets a little grubby and oily, brush it off on your leather chainsaw boots where they usually start to crack - for me around the ball of the foot/toe bending area, the oil helps to keep the leather supple and waterproof! 😄

[@MJPeddler]

I am not a faller, but I cut firewood. I use a 5-gallon bucket to carry my chainsaw essentials. Scrench, 2-stroke oil, bar oil, files, measuring stick, hatchet, etc. It just automatically goes into the truck with the saw, chaps, helmet, etc.

To add on this great video- dog clips! Both single ended and double. Those spring clips tend to come off. When i worked as a diver my boss called those aluminum spring clips, suicicide clips. He did so because years ago there was a submersible with two men on board. An aluminum spring clip that was on the exterior clipped itself to a wreck and it was so deep they could not rescue them in time. They died of hypothermia. Since then ive never owned one of those clips, even for my keys.

A yarn from down under - Doing a simple white spray job I didn't realise how far the overspray would travel until a week later when my good mate called me up saying his sister's black car was looking a bit dusty and when he wiped his finger across it sure enough that was a fine mist of rust-guard paint. Hours of cut and polish to get it all off 🤦‍♂️

My dad is an electrician by trade, and one of his Foreman once told him "if you ever ride in a single prop airplane, bring a 10-foot pice of Romex with you. If the plane goes down, throw went into that Romex in the air and it will catch on something."

Good tip. Even though I don't have a need to do this in particular, I like seeing these kinds of videos.

This is great! I lost mine a bit ago. Ordered a cheap one and it doesn’t fit my saw...lesson learned. Will be ordering 2 Stihl ones and making that! Thanks

Loved that!! Thanks for the little tip!

Happy New Year Cody! One of my daily commitments is to have a good chuckle! Ya know it is like medicine! When you were painting the wrench----that turned my crank. Tears in eyes, especially the "professional" comment. Isn't it grand to be human? God bless!
