How To Carry Firewood In The Field

[@frosty_soda]

No bullsh*t. Just quality info.

[@cltaylor4814]

I love your channel...you keep it simple for those of us with very little experience who need the extra time and effort you put into your video presentations. Thank you for that. Looking at some of the comments about your firewood carrier, I saw one naysayer. Actually, that's not bad. Remember, no matter how frustrating a naysayer might be, that you have many more yeh!sayers that are thrilled with your channel and the content you share with us. Your "paying it forward" benefits a lot of people as is attested to by the number of subscribers you have and the fact that that number keeps increasing. Again, I thank you for all that you share with us.

[@gypsyqt6904]

WOW, what a great and easy idea to carry wood!! I learned some more knots as well. Thank you! I salute you too, and G-d bless!

[@TheDrakenZ]

Such a simple idea, but so useful. Great video!

[@mikeritter2979]

Camping is a lot of fun and little things like this make the chores easier. 👍

[@Sparkfly88]

I just want to give you an honest thanks I've been subscribed to your channel for a long time now and I just love how clear and presentable everything on your channel is. keep up the good work man!

[@markjordan3555]

I love this man yes.. it’s nice to know even with all of his training he’s still a down to earth guy.. he makes learning these stuff fun.. It’s not easy to sit in the bushes and speak to a camera alone.. so appreciate it.. ❤❤❤

[@acarkarabyk5801]

this channel is one of the best things online.

[@recall5811]

Please share it with others and thanks for watching

[@AirbrushingtipsNet]

Cpl Kelly. Giving us ELOs and TLOs without telling us they're ELOs and TLOs. Outstanding channel. Semper Fidelis.

[@therealroga]

Nice concise vid, very clearly explained. Got me thinking though, if I only had the paracord, wouldn't want to cut it. St thinking how to do this with one piece, maybe an alpine butterfly to get an inline loop over short stick, run along the stick, same again, back down to the long stick.

[@keithlapere7650]

Yes carrying firewood sucks! Especially losing half if not all your load. Excellent idea! Thx for the share.

I'm going to get some firewood today so I had to look up this video to refresh the knowledge of these knots and this device :-)

[@catmandont100]

I invented the same thing 15 years ago for my daughters. Afterwards, they refused to get wood, unless could use the harnesses. Mine was made of metal electrical conduit with old seat belts threaded through. Easily converted to haul small logs from the forest too.

[@keywestpuma4095]

Brilliant and simple , works for fireplace wood at your house also, Thanks!! I liked and subscribed !!!

[@JimKernix]

Nice. I've also done a suitcase type firewood carry using a killick hitch with an extra half hitch at the killick end and some slack between the timber hitch and killick to use as a handle - you'll need gloves because the rope handle won't be as comfortable as your stick handle but it's pretty quick. I'll give this method a try. I mostly do 2 bundles, one in each hand, which is easier than one for balance reasons. I've even put the 2 bundles on a long stick and rested the whole thing on my shoulders when I have room to move.

[@nowakezoneforever6021]

My backcountry skills and pack have improved so much since I’ve been watching your channel. This wood carrier is perfect.... simple and useful.

[@vinniegotfirefewpriors7175]

I'll say it again....you know your shit brother thx for invaluable insight on ...."if you want to cut bullshit & get it done watch a Marine do it".....Semper Fi !!

[@elitster]

I made two of these today to carry some wood from the pruning I did recently. THANK YOU!!! #Application

[@Smootus]

What a easy system to carry any loose unruly material! Thanks for sharing!

[@cmliphone]

Really great video. You’re a really good instructor.

[@kilastrika]

Mr Corner... Corp corner? Mister corner Corp.. Mr corporals corner... Maybe thats it. I am definitely not using this for wood in the survival sense. I cant stand taking recycling up and down three flights of stairs and cant figure out a good way to pull in tension and carry the whole pile downstairs. Paracord should be a lesson in education classes... my goodness.

[@JimRodgers]

Great idea. I suppose one could use any variety of knots as long as you secure both sticks to the cordage. Makes managing firewood easier, with no loose armloads slipping about. Thanks for sharing.

[@MoratiRace]

So simple and so handy. Nice job. Thanks !

[@jairsons.c.]

Until the next class, hug from Brazil....

[@andrewkeeton3627]

It’s like a wilderness briefcase

[@geneschindler9537]

That's a super neat idea too carry firewood and simple 👍

[@bewaldas]

great and easy idea to carry wood

[@johnran6015]

The right video I was looking for, thank you!

[@andrewpost1316]

Good lord that’s awesome!! It funny because you make it look so simple yet everyone (myself included) struggles with the firewood load.

[@tiopansimatupang6981]

[@timminter4434]

I like the pun at the beginning

[@Sarahjanam]

haha, I was just going to say the same thing

[@dmd8552]

If you made two (or more) of these you could attach them to a yoke and carry quite a lot of firewood.

[@jasonhanna5230]

Great stuff as always. I find your videos to be an invaluable resource of information that has translated through to many hikes for me. Keep up the great work!

[@TonyTooTuff]

Another fine bit of wisdom to add to the mental tool box.

[@practicallifetelevision8261]

That just simplified carrying wood. simple to make as well. Great knowledge.

[@Traderjoe]

Very good! I hate carrying firewood too. I would like to know a better way of carrying multiple splits off of logs. The triangular wedges always create a difficult load for me and i usually just load them up under my arm by hand and I wonder if cordage will work with them too.

[@dragan3290]

I love your channel ❤! When I forget a certain knot? I immediately look up your channel! Cheers from Australia 🙂 👍👍👍

[@jirdesteva]

Thanks again for sharing knowledge.

[@bobbyfurr8780]

Outstanding! Will be very useful. Thanks...

[@davidsolomon7377]

Spending the day letting your videos run in the background. Getting ideas for my scouts to practice. Outstanding.

[@daleschmidt7157]

How do I do it at my age 68? I take my 32 and 35 year old Nephews camping with me since neither of their Wives like Camping. I'll send them this how to video. I love Camping as much as my Nephews.

[@Skfoster64]

Another great video! Thank you Corporal Kelly! Hope you’re enjoying winter in the Valley.

[@edyoung6756]

My new favorite video channel. Incredibly informative. From a former "water duck" to a "jarhead," "Your info is outstanding!" I look forward to more of your videos.

[@stevenlein4772]

I had a retired naval instructor working as a course teacher in my first factory training class back in the late 70's. Your videos teach in the same style as he did. It was one of the best among the many repair and service courses that I took over my career. Thanks for sharing.

[@fatbeard8072]

wow, never thought about quick measurement from the center point of your chest to the end of your arm. Seriously, actual mind blown. Love this channel.

[@michaelgeiss741]

Great video! I hitch the ends of a 7' cord to both ends of a handle stick, then girth hitch fairly widelythe middle of the cord around the firewood bundle. If the cord is too long for your bundle, wrap the cord ends around the handle in opposite directions until the length is perfect.

[@luisreynoso1906]

I already mad it. Thanks your videos are always well made. Keep them coming.

[@gordonmiller4439]

That's pretty useful, thanks for passing on the knowledge!

[@elduendeoscuro]

68/5000 An easy and elegant way to transport firewood, thanks for the trick

[@antoniov8689]

Great video dude, straight to the point

[@halsonger1317]

Great system, and thanks for showing it. I'll pass it along to my Scout troop so maybe they will back more than one or two sticks at a time when they go out to gather firewood!

[@RIZE-tx5sd]

Good idea. I would have just dragged those 3 dead trees back. More videos Corporal. Go to the Rez

[@mementomori6992]

I understood it in the first two seconds, but it was interesting. I feel bad bouncing, so i will leave this comment :)

[@jillianlauderdale4565]

Awesome Idea! I can not wait to try this. Thanks Corporal O7

[@challenger2ultralightadventure]

Simple and useful. Thanks for sharing it.

[@smeds6030]

Took some notes, and definitely am going to use this on my camping trip this wknd.

[@shadowwarrior5307]

Damn i wish i knew this years ago. Great vid as usual dude.

[@johnnyonthetrail629]

For real right?!!?

[@derekstacy3593]

Awesome video brother hope i sparked tht inspiration for this video lol

[@md37346]

HI from Ireland,,, your vids, are so good.....thanks

[@jeffvaughn7987]

I do basically the same, but use mule tape..love the channel..

[@phonecards1]

I will be using this on next camping trip. Thanks.

[@johnrossSorbie]

Awesome lesson

[@moonshiner9928]

I'll use this when I go camping next week. Thanks

[@lancerudy9934]

Great video😊

[@joshl90]

That’s very clever and effective

[@erickinner4300]

Sir, With the rocks as your background, the cover on your head it all reminds me of "The Woodsmaster " the late and great Ron Hood. He had a very simple approach to survival, which I see in your videos. Thanks please keep making them

[@recall5811]

it is my tribute to him. Thanks for watching

[@robbevington1754]

simple and smart great job

[@DP-ej1we]

Really good watch, oddly calming.

[@TACHILL]

Great way to carry alot of wood

[@southernwanderer7912]

Another great video. Thank you.

[@mariajoselozanooncins3321]

Muy util esta información.👍.Muchas gracias ..Aún así me gustaria que fuera subtitulado al español ..Así llegaria a mas gente.. Gracias de nuevo !!👍

[@jeffreymchoul]

...another great video. Simplicity and function. The foundation of woodcrafting...

[@mrForestBeard]

wow! nice idea! :3

[@RavenBlaze]

Very cool idea!

[@KillianLikeTheBeer]

Thank you for this! I love camping but living in Florida makes it difficult when it's blazing heat 9 months out of the year, so I try and get as much camping done when it's "cooler." I have gotten comfortable going solo camping but the workload is definitely a challenging experience! I have had a helluva time trying to figure out the best way to carry firewood, from piling them ontop of each other and dragging them behind me like a sled (which works, but it sucks when everything falls off because it got caught on something), to piling them into a ruck, to just carrying them by the armfull and making 600 trips into the woods. I'm a small gal, so that much is definitely a challenge in and of itself. I really appreciate your time to show us newbs how to make our lives a little bit easier! I have learned how to make 4 (technically 5) types of knots in about 30 minutes from watching your vids! I made a few myself and have credited you in them! :)

[@juankar5629]

buen truco y buen video compañero, saludos desde Barcelona, España

[@jackvoss5841]

I have a similar system, but use 1 bandana instead of two sticks. The bandana is folded so two, diagonally opposing corners are stretched out. Tie the ends of a 5’-6’ cord to these corners using a sheetbend on each of the two corners When gathering firewood, lay out the rig on the ground with the bandana at one end, and the loop stretched out, with the two lines about 12”-14” apart. Gather a small to medium bundle of wood, pull the bandana end up over the wood, and through the loop at the other end. Pick it up by the bandana, settle the load. Now the load can be carried by hand, or with the bandana over a shoulder, or with the bandana across your forehead as a tump line, and the wood at your back. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying /

[@mehardin]

I'm glad your said tie whatever knot you want. I thought if you weren't going to reuse this rope this might be a good opportunity to use a constrictor on both ends. I don't camp, but when I was a kid my Dad always made me bring in firewood for our fireplace. This would have been awesome.

[@torjones1701]

Simple and brilliant! Thanks for sharing, that's definitely something that's going in my notebook!

[@MrDarthvader75]

Do you think it would work with a simple slip knot (from a marline spike) on both sticks? The more I think of it, the more I believe this would work by simply doing the same slip knot (twice per stick, of course) on both sticks. A slip knot would equal that bowline with the cordage inside of the larger stick. And in the smaller stick, you are doing a slip knot already.

[@westvirginiasurvival]

Outstanding!

[@mikee2482]

Wow! Mind boggling.

[@ralphlatorre203]

I saw Dan's video too. I subscribe to his channel also. Good information from you guys.

[@redapple3256]

So useful. I found myself completely useless with a bunch of rope and a load of branches I needed to move and I felt like a fumbling fool even though I was a girls scout and learned a bunch of knots as a child. Thanks for this useful video!

[@othergary]

Thanks corporal. I've been clearing out a LOT of bamboo. It's not heavy but awkward to manage. This is perfect. Salute!

[@rivahkillah]

great idea

[@nickhdeep6leatherworks338]

Really enjoying the content keep the videos coming. Quality is getting better as well.

[@ExtremeDuty12]

Good video as usual. You always got helpful info. Thank you!

[@myworldonvideo8721]

Amazing .... Thank you for this . I'm sure I will use this sometime in my life for sure 🙋🏼‍♂️🙌

[@casualpreparedness2347]

Excellent.

[@nERVEcenter117]

Outstanding. My dad does firewood runs in the woods a lot, multiple trips at a time, so this would help him immensely.

[@brentyates6786]

Outstanding. So funny, I was just thinking about how to do this for camping this year.

[@devonsonger358]

I can see how that could easily become a primitive backpack.

[@antoniobenedito1]

[@Theactualcurrentsea]

The knot work alone, is enough to keep me watching. Basics are the basis of survival.

[@daddyosink4413]

Great content as always!

[@tonyk9722]

So simple of and useful. Will use this on my next fish shorelunch when collecting wood for firepit.Thankyou Sir for another great educational video.From the great white north of Ontario, Canada. Keep your stick on the ice and fishing pole in the water.

[@otterchen]

Could be used in a same manner to carry firewood like a rucksack.I'll try that.

[@ndafarachaitezvi1139]

Outstanding and awesome as always Thanks for sharing and taking us along

[@richm-3803]

I learned something about you, you are 6’6”

[@cmargheimable]

Another outstanding tip. This, plus your video demonstrating the timber hitch with a marlin spike handle has made things easier in the field.
