Building a Backpack: Bushcraft Style, Bushcraft Backpack Frame

[@alexbecker1509]

Thanks Dan. We had a great time building the pack frames at the Advanced Bushcraft class. I highly recommend Dans classes.

[@paulkachurak7878]

This frame is my favorite thing we made last weekend!

[@paulkachurak7878]

@Crafty McBushface, congratulations on being so awesome. You’re mom must be so proud.

[@paulkachurak7878]

@Crafty McBushface , first off average people use their names not something made up for KZbin. So yes you are *trying* to be special. You come with insults then get offended when insulted in kind. I hope you’re not a troop leader, and if you are you need to change your attitude towards others because you are no leader.

[@barnastil591]

God I love Dan's vids. Real manly outdoorsman instead of goofy gadgets.

[@jonlittle6572]

Love your content and your humor! You do a great job. Would love to attend you classes someday

[@terra_6978]

You give off cool uncle vibes

[@RealRedRabbit]

I wanna drink a beer around a campfire somewhere deep in the mountains with this guy. I'm a backpack/haversack guy. Got plenty of shapes and sizes for different situations. I think this will be a good project next time I'm out.

[@barnaclebill1615]

This little project here is the heart of your channel Dan. I love it! Can’t wait to see the video on setting up the load on the frame. 😁👍👍🇺🇸

[@johnwyman5939]

Know that is a dam good idea for making a pack frame. I would like too see a shelf put on bottom, so I could pack out elk and deer . Nicely done on video and showing how too make frame. Gonna give it a try! Thanks again and keep the videos a coming!!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🪓🔪👍👍

[@briargoatkilla]

Man for the last few years I pack all my deer out on a Roycraft pack frame. No shelf needed, just jack em down tight with paracord. I carry em for miles sometimes.

[@robinbonaventura3017]

Dan...what a goof! I appreciate your humor not to mention the cool skills you share!!. Thanks and take care!!!! Robin

[@terryqueen3233]

Thanks for this little tutorial Dan. I get my grandson this weekend finally after me being sick for a while and I was looking for things to do with him this is exactly one of the things that we are going to do this weekend the other one is going to be making a old style oil lamp and that should keep us a little busy this weekend anyway got to play before we work though. Thanks again for the video Dan I really wish you had gone a little farther on this because I know he's going to want to take off with it on his back but I think I got a idea about how to pack it up anyway so thanks again going to have a ball this weekend thanks to you. Stay vigilant my friend stay vigilant!

[@markcox1457]

Dan, I watch a lot of bushcraft videos and this backpack frame is one of the coolest things I have seen. Your knowledge is fantastic and very helpful.

[@dv40f]

Really good teacher and lot of useful courses ✓.. . Should have Golden KZbin Award 💯. Thanks

[@TheP0STMAN]

I like to use my hammock instead of the webbing for my shoulder straps. This way I can use the hammock for more than one use.

[@MrSokitumi0007]

Thanks for the sweet thought good one

[@timothywilliams8907]

Been looking for a plan to make a decent pack frame for bushcrafting, and you really nailed it down for me with this video. Thanks for all ypur great work on these videos that you do. Can't wait to get started on this.

[@alemannicbushcraft1742]

Thank you so much for this awesome video! I will craft this with my sons 👍

[@OldNavajoTricks]

Congratulations on the Hollywood role marra! Just watched Jungleland with Tom Hardy and did a doubletake haha... 👍

[@JR-001]

gotta admit it turned out better than i expected! :)

[@michaelmartindale3914]

That is cool! I really like what your doing, and the fact you mention beer makes even better!! Thank you ,and Keep up the great work.

[@Joso46an2]

Gotta try this on always had a thing for bags and backpacks👍

[@troylaarman4424]

I cut some maple saplings this spring and set them aside to dry to make a pack frame. Thanks for the video on an easy way to put it together!

[@paulzimmerman3895]

Very cool project, Dan. I know its one of the advanced requirements at school too. So, it'll be great to practice that one for future schooling I'd like to do. Hope next year. Thanks again. I'll look forward to the series...

[@glennfyfe1357]

Thanks Dan, good video as always. Looking forward to the next one.

[@Boomhauer69]

I enjoy bushcrafting survival video I did few on my channel like a mini survival kit and making a shelter with a trap . I personally don't know a whole lot a about bushcrafting and survival. I definitely enjoy watching video about bushcrafting and survival.

[@PEBELtbk]

You're the best on KZbin man!

[@david6920-r6z]

Very cool. I found an old Alaskan Trapper frame (circ 1960) in a 2nd hand shop. Need to get it set up. Thanks for sharing Dave

[@peacevalleyforagers]

Wonder if you make it with a platform on the bottom to stack things on like foraging baskets

[@azhomeboy2000]

Simple and efficient. This was awesome. ty CCB!

[@lorriewatson7423]

Excellent! I have to try this Thank you! 😁

[@duckmangooo7376]

I dig the simple design. Easy way, only way.

[@philfreda358]

Oh my gosh totally cool I can't wait to build one and the shoulder straps webbing couldn't be simpler what a great idea thanks Dan

[@TheBanjo53]

Seen other videos on ladder frame, but first with the cross brace.

[@i_am_a_freespirit]

Wonderful Video, thank you 🥰

[@cillaloves2fish688]

Thx Dan!

[@kimberluna2226]

Cool...about how weight was on that?... Nice....sticks, rope, ......TV!!!!!!!! :)...loads of fun......lol...stay in them woods ...yeah.....can't wait to see the SNOW videos!!!!!!!

[@ericl8122]

Love this pack set up!

[@NewbyBushcraft]

Useful for carrying, appreciate the info and you as a being.

[@dlighted8861]

Thanks,I had to watch it twice to get all the details. I like the way the tarp and blanket are secured and would like to see how to fasten a sleeping bag onto them. Then how to pack other gear on top of that.

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

Pack looks good Dan. 😊thanks

[@gonzalez519]

Excellent video, the only thing i would add to it is how to cut the wood using a knife/wood baton and how do the lashings as most 1st timers have no clue on basic knot/hitch tying or bushcraftsy stuff. 😅👍

[@SimonAmazingClarke]

Brilliant. Now I need some sticks.

[@geoffallert1921]

As Usual, a very entertaining and informative video. Cheers, mate.

[@thevirginiabushcrafter8833]

Thanks for Sharing !!

[@outdoorsythings2573]

this was super crazy helpful. had sell my good frame pack ( eberlestock main frame ) to cover bills and have been wondering what to do. this will fill the void very nicely. thank you. have see if it will haul a deer out the bush, but looks good for the job with a old millsurplse duffle lashed to it . thank you again...

[@kevinverville8608]

Great project!!!

[@blackwillowbushcraft5632]

Now that's an awesome Bushcraft back pack frame right there 👍. Definitely going to have to make one up. Those new hoodies look awesome will be getting one...or two..or all of them 😉. Another awesome video as always brother 💪👍

[@reneerupert5830]

Great video! Can't wait for the next one.

[@jamesosborn1628]

Another great video, thanks.

[@shirleychase1033]

Made to measure. Love it!

[@dannydenham8141]

Just finished this frame 😀👍👍👍👍👍

[@OverOnTheWildSide]

Always excellent ideas here. I’m not sure I’d bother with a frame though myself.

[@jouzel8951]

Nice work!

[@honorableoutfitters]

Well done brother. Great detail!

[@jckelsey]

Great video! I’m about to make that ✅

[@BUZZKILLJRJR]

This is awesome can you notch the wood for added security with the frame?

[@KnifeCrazzzzy]

Beautiful man! 🙌🏻👊🏻

[@torchofkck4989]

Thanks for sharing In these styled construction videos, I appreciated the measuring the lap across the small of the back... At 3:15 . . . Can you please, in future videos, try to use other anatomical measuring... like '3 fingers wide in length', or '4 hand forks wide / long' (🤙), etc... Thanks.

[@phillipadams4738]

Awesome. Love the project videos.

[@jackvoss5841]

Plus, I would consider lashing that wool blanket next to my back. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

[@markirish7599]

Great video

[@samuelpope7798]

Really cool!

[@NikosKatsikanis]

if you make it lower, you can move more weight to your hips?

[@barrykelly2722]

What no titanium tubes like they use on the space shuttle? Lol. I'm thinking PVC. But it does create issues with tying the paracord. You've given me ideas.

[@gymmaniac]

Outstanding. Sold.

[@Dangkhao_TV]

Nice shearing ideas

[@CodyJones07]

would it still work fine if you lashed with parachord

[@jpierce599]

Great fun.

[@robmarshallofficial]

Very simple design but effective

[@АндрейЛитовкин-ь1ы]

СПАСИБО!

[@joedemlcla]

Probably not same subject matter, but do you treat any of your great and clothing with like permethrin, to keep the bugs and crawlies away and off of you while sleeping out in the open?

[@Jaden48108]

Cool.

[@ndubstar]

I tie off my straps on bottom. The extra length still can be a waist belt. Just easier straps are always attached.

[@Misojives]

What kind of string are you using for securing the lashing?

[@BrosephRussell]

Awesome i been wanting to make one of these pack frames HellToTheYeah

[@jobygochoco2731]

cool video!!!

[@stacyhazelwood4033]

Great video!! I have a great idea for a video. Show us how to make a torch i.e. cane torch that native Americans made for use in caves or some kind of bushcraft long burning torch.

[@cnawan]

I've used ratchet straps (minus the ratchet & hardware) as treehuggers for my hammock before - they're hella strong. Bet they'd make a handy dual-use backpack strap too. If you were feeling excited, I think you could turn that pack frame into a bucksaw too. :)

[@drakdragon]

Man I just realized you offer courses on your website. Didn't realize you had a whole little thing going on! That's pretty awesome dude, hope you put together a book/guide someday with a lot of these basics and useful knowledge, I would love to keep a copy on hand with me, because this kind of stuff is always great to have.

[@freddyoutdoors]

That's super cool

[@545flacker]

What size bankline do you suggest for most bushcraft projects?

[@GlennHernandez-u4r]

Keep it going

[@cardiacbob]

Good video. looks like the back cross member should be the other way to get the load closer to his body. Just what I would do.

[@margueritemitchell1829]

Hello from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦👋👍♥️😂🥳🧙‍♂️❄🌨🚴‍♀️🍁🍁🍁🍁

[@stevencunningham4680]

Dan , for the lashings did you use #36 bankline or #12 ?

[@AnimeShinigami13]

This looks like something I'd build in my garden for my tomatoes and beans. Have you ever tested homemade cordage on this? Do you have preferred kinds of wood for making this with?

[@mattcline497]

I already have a pack with straps that come around the front. Can that be strapped to the pack easily? Love the videos! Keep up the great content!!

[@jesuschristiskingandsavior461]

What a king/chad!!! I hope I'm like you one day Also I'm just wondering what part of the country are you from? Don't have to say exact state, don't have to reply if you don't feel comfortable. Just wondering what area looks like that

[@neesbushcraft]

Great demo, Dan!

[@XaLoiVlog]

Tuyệt vời và tuyệt vời✌

[@StonehouseWilderness]

CLASSY AND SASSY

[@jackvoss5841]

When lashing a pack to a frame, the diamond-O-hitch comes to mind. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

[@bogsplash8612]

Did someone mention beer? I bet you could carry a few on that pack frame ☺️

[@christoforospaphitis4090]

I love your videos but this rack the way it is set up in my opinion is that the top part is leaning backwards and I had an extremely bad experience in the army when my extremely heavy backpack's top straps broke off while on a 60km march,. My back was hurting for a few days even though i was young and extremely fit as a result of my backpack leaning backwards (a lot though i felt like having a Porsche style whale wing)

[@TheBellmare]

Hey, go the extra mile and make a camp chair that doubles as a pack!!

[@hannahakerson5882]

Dave Canterbury did that already

[@kimberlyrusso2541]

I started watching this channel when you did the collab with Townsends. Does this frame have history behind it? Just curious, I am making a Revolutionary War era hunting shirt, may make this too.

[@สุดใจอุดรรุ่งเรือง-ณ2ฏ]

ชอบๆๆดังเดิม

[@dlighted8861]

Yes Sir,that interests me greatly and would possibly make one up as a B.O.B.. Nothing wrong with the red strapping. It adds a bit of pizzazz (technical term)🤗 to it. And darn it I just saw some discarded pull tape but didn't grab it. that would have worked well as strapping. Ya snooze,ya lose. 😁

[@MiscMitz]

👍😎👍

[@zacplunkett8490]

Beer for sure 😆

[@Rick-ph7uk]

Why aren't you using the knife? You endorse by Gerber.

[@MrFreeGman]

I'm not sure I get the point of the frame since your load is going to be so light to begin with. Why not just make a simple bag and throw it over your shoulder?

[@Darcaster]

So....make a hide stretching frame then. ok.
