Tipi Series: FULL FILM | Gray Bearded Green Beret

[@davids122901]

1.Thank you for defending and protecting our way of life in freedom 2.Likely the deepest, and most concise yet simple and fun instructions I've seen 3 Excellent example of traditional heritage and earnestly authentic skill. Greatly appreciated, sir

[@KettleCamping]

I totally agree!!

[@joshstiltner]

Great video brother. When I lived in Montana as a kid my parents owned a KOA and there wasn’t room for the four of us in the top of the A-frame building, so I lived in a teepee for two years. It’s really comfortable and practical.

[@inhiscare1]

Where at in Montana?

[@Covert_Arrangements]

I’ve been thinking about constructing one on my property to teach my girls some bushcraft. Would you recommend a Teepee or something else to begin with? Novice here so. 😊

[@JohnaFactsDontCare...]

Sounds like a great experience. I would have loved that as a kid. Like getting your driver's license.... freedom!

[@hatfieldmccoy0311]

After I got out of the Marines I went back home to South Eastern Kentucky and went as far back into our land in the mountains and spent two years living in my 18 foot tipi, and it helped me deal with my time over there. I am back into the real world and hate it, I am so ready to go back.

[@jefffoo7666]

From one SOF veteran to another , Thanks for your service to our great nation ! And, . . Thank you for putting together the details of this tepee series ! Airborne !!

[@Titanykus]

Awesome video, that chicken at 1:01 went from chicken to speedy gonzalez in a second.

[@WayneGorham]

Very simple , informative ,and and enjoyable to watch. And yes you can teach a old dog new tricks.

[@celebmrk9]

Never seen one put up before…living in the Great Plains my whole 6 1/2 decades, how did I ever miss this stuff?

[@unfi6798]

Now I know exactly where to put the in-laws when they visits..!! Cheers mate. You always give me great ideas. Catch you & safe 2022.

[@chrislossing1206]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. KZbin is great because of people like you spreading the knowledge you may not ever see otherwise.

[@adamcecil3630]

This was awesome. I love the detail on the knots. Love the music. And the bonus Happy Gilmore reference when you drove the nail made my night!

[@DLDafterDark]

Dude. Great video. At 1:15 I was in awe. I couldn’t believe how incredible that soil looked. I’m stuck with that VA red clay. Excellent job all the way around. Great work. I would love to have you on my show. This is the kind of stuff our community needs. Thanks man.

[@allanrichts7620]

Awesome, loved the ladder!!

[@Adam4E1327]

The Beard, The Man, The Vision. Great Video Boss!

[@nowherespecial6780]

Absolutely love it ran into your channel and I think it's great. We have been living off grid for 7 years here in maine. I was and all ways be a marine .God-bless you and yours!!!

[@randyfuller3146]

Will be a member the beginning of month

[@mycocoaone]

I do a 10ft tipi because I am 73 and 5' tall. But I love spending my summers and fall in it!

[@gundoctor4312]

Just stumbled on your channel. It's great to see someone doing this stuff close by. I hate when people complain about the cold when it's 40 degrees LMFO. I'm up here by Ft Drum. Climb to Glory!

[@SlikPapaRuff]

I love the professionalism you bring to Bush craft...Awesome!!

[@Mtlk77]

Oh, I’m excited to watch this

[@brucenilssen1235]

Great video. Like the way you explain everything. Love your commentary and down home sense of humor. Thank you...

[@PlanetKarma]

Awesome stuff brother! I've been living in teepees for the last couple winter months keeping the fires and now building a bunch of survival shelters, thanks for the teachings, gained more skills to try out from watching!

[@TheTruthMatters]

This has to be for the VERY BEGINNER. I didn't ever know how to make a teepee, but I think I could have did a trial and error quicker than this video. Extremely detailed... Good for everyone who has the time to sit through the video. But still, 10 out of 10. Awesome info.

[@daveclark8726]

This is a great video. You make it look easy to make those poles and clean them up.

[@juanpablomoyano-rr8uv]

Its cool that you showed the process of making a mistake and learning from it like when you cutted the the tip of the rope and had to do it again aplause you top man

[@rushyahr7423]

This comment is made about 5 minutes into the video. That is the best way to teach the fisherman's knot IMHO, and cordage conservation is a cool concept because it actually makes lashing faster and easier. I love it.

[@joshmontgomery4040]

Great video … been working in timber most of my life.

[@ntvrthmn]

Liked the necklace knot idea. I've used bamboo and ironwood but prefer pine. I've been "doing" conicals and especially Tipis for almot 5 decades now. I like your calm thoroughness. I see you figured out how to push up the poles rather than pull on the rope...rope works better on 18'+ size lodges.

[@kevinhouse1960]

Great series. I was fascinated by the skill it took to put this together. Bravo sir.

[@k9road]

..I like the bass-line in the music... 😊👍

[@bobelot6302]

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@frankhernigle8102]

I personally prefer splicing the ends. But if I do whip them I have found that heat shrink tape is pretty cool to cover the whips rather than beeswax. Bonus you can use different colors to help keep ropes sorted.

[@frankhernigle8102]

@@nowakezoneforever6021 well he was whipping the ends of hemp rope. So its assumed it's not a natural resource. That being said it would be no different than using rope or vines. And you could still use heat shrink as an identifier to different ropes.

[@rickyjackson4307]

Long video, but so much learned and well worth it, I'll definitely be putting what I learned into action real soon

[@michaelbaldwin6543]

Thank you for sharing the full film. I always enjoy your content.

[@Spifty12]

Super cool!

[@jamesellsworth9673]

Finishing the inside of the tipi with a second, partial skin provides important insulation, airflow, and condensation management. Add raised sapling beds and tanned furs for bedding: YOU will be on your way to comfortable winter nights.

[@GrayBeardedGreenBeret]

Correct. I use the liner in the winter along with a door. Not necessary otherwise

[@KLeVoyBarnes]

GREAT VIDEO - WHAT A GREAT DAD WHAT KID DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE THEIR OWN TIPI ( GUESS I ALWAYS SPELLED IT WRONG TEEPEE ) GREAT DETAIL AND GREAT VIDEOS TO WATCH

[@kennethvalerio1294]

Nice work

[@johnabramides8035]

Love the video,John,Sheppey, UK..................................................

[@ScottBallard]

Cool stuff! Semper Fi.

[@ScottBallard]

@@nowakezoneforever6021 Well yeah, I'm a marine. But my sentiment was in more of a comradery amongst people that have served and a show of respect. Also, when I was at Fort Sill for Artillery training, which you know is an army base, which is where all artillery marine's went, at least at the time - I heard many the "ooo sha". I didn't make it up. That's not what my comment was about.

[@JohnaFactsDontCare...]

Whoa, all that AND a bag of chips! I was wondering where all the manly men are. Canada, they are in Canada. Great video, I'll be using some of your suggestions in June when I head to Wrangell Alaska on a 3 month solo trip. Well, not solo, I'll have my trusty dog Lucy, living the teepee life.

[@bigups1915]

I’ve been staying in van and a bell tent for a minute, time to check into tipi life

[@SonoraSlinger]

I just moved to AZ from the Adks. Miss those maples for sure

[@kalstreksandtrails7606]

If you make this into a DVD I would definitely buy it. Awesome video my friend

[@GrayBeardedGreenBeret]

A tipi film would be a lot of fun to make.

[@danmalone7819]

Really love this series.

[@louisdoss5853]

If U look at that beauty it looks like U know what your doing . Great job , great video showing every inch of the way . I love it .

[@BeardedVikinG75]

Awesome video. Enjoyed from start to finish and learned lots of great info. Thanks

[@skully1030]

I just subscribed to your channel great stuff . Now I'm going to go watch some more of this stuff 😊👍

[@ThaByrd]

1 1/2 hrs... it truly is a christmas miracle

[@kevinwoodson8909]

Cool TP have always wanted one

[@bigrich7026]

Thanks Josh. Long time since I tuned in. Thanks for all the great information. My kit(s) have definitely been tweaked with your helpful knowledge. I have learned from you more than anyone would want to read here if I mentioned it. I still have to make my ghillie. That will be my next step. Sorry I didn't check in to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy and blessed New Year. Hope you all found some peace and rest. nice video 👍🏼

[@Brad-99]

Awesome !

[@rushyahr7423]

Halfway through, and I've had a few drinks, and I also created a notebook page full of notes about cordage, lol

[@rushyahr7423]

Seriously still blowing my mind

[@robertrobert5188]

So much easier to put skin outside up and slide lifting pole underneath. Rolling up is so easy this way.

[@lindag5270]

I really liked this video. Very informative. My only question is, where is the door flap and how does it attach?

[@Josh-qk2ru]

Hey mr grey bearded green beret i was wondering if you could make a video on how you pack your bugout bag either on youtube here or instagram

[@prepperpov5852]

Woah! Thank you, sir!

[@mrseuff617]

Great Informative video, can I get the model number for that case folder please?

[@sparrowflying864]

Where did you get your tee pee ? What's the brand. Thanks grey beard.

[@GrayBeardedGreenBeret]

Nomadics

[@michaelcarter8209]

Outstanding

[@dennislindenpellinge]

All the best !😁

[@craig6542]

Thank you for the content and shared knowledge. 👍💯

[@ntvrthmn]

One of the more softly spoken of the Tipi "rules" is to never drop or toss the poles on the ground as the tips can snap easily that way...I guess it's another way of saying "sacred".

[@jenniferbauman4802]

That was fun great video. God bless. From Glenn CATT in Massachusetts.

[@garyprice8330]

Great show brother very informative love ur show

[@brianpriest3638]

What knife is that? Love the channel! This is a cool project!

[@GrayBeardedGreenBeret]

Probably my puukko, don’t remember

[@brianpriest3638]

@@GrayBeardedGreenBeret yeah I like that knife too. I should’ve been more specific “what case knife is that?” It looks like a Panama trapper in the video, but is it just a single spear point blade, or am I just not seeing the clip point beside it? At any rate, it’s good lookin’! Cheers from central Kentucky!

[@cultural_lettuce1]

Christmas came early this year!

[@rushyahr7423]

About 30 minutes in, and I still think this is one of the best bushcraft videos I have seen in at least a year.

[@bruce2927]

Very nice👍

What about the inner wall? The inner wall is very clever.

[@ms.beatle248]

I wonder if Gorilla glue would work rather than the pitch glue?

[@bobbiechavez2990]

Good looking teepee, GB2… I’ve always wanted one. Did you make it yourself or buy it? If bought, where from and cost?

[@GrayBeardedGreenBeret]

This is from Nomadics Tipi Makers

[@nas4free]

Buy one if you can because making one is a huge hassle. Focus on obtaining poles and getting them ready. Length of poles = 4ft + Teepee diameter. Longer poles look really nice crossing at the top. Harvesting your own poles is a lot of work to skin and smooth but worth the effort, even if you only set up the teepee in your backyard for family and friends. Inside fire is awesome in the later fall. Enjoy.

[@nancygreggpasiecznik4673]

What is the name of the tool you used to remove the bark?

[@jasonjohnson6344]

@@nancygreggpasiecznik4673 It’s called a “drawknife”. Available in several styles and blade lengths on Amazon. I’ve seen em in the Garrette-Wade catalog too. The hand grip positioning of your particular drawknife choice is IMO the most important consideration. Knowing what you REALLY intend to do with your knife, and the type of wood you’ll be processing will mean a lot towards your final choice of blade length and handle style. Enjoy an eons old craftsman’s tool. ✌️👍

[@jinxjones5497]

Sweet Case knife. Damn it! He said "whip" like Stewie!!!

Good deal brother someone needs to teach em. I'm Native American we got the memo at birth lol 19delta Scouts out.👍

[@THEBOSS-vn2ky]

The pole ladder. You can take with you. I guess I will try to explain this. Take a 10ft or 20ft pole Lay it down on the ground. Cut ✂ in half? Go up a foot cut ✂ to the middle on the right, go to the top, on the left side cut ✂ to the middle. Know what, cut in half? Chisel out the middle, a three-sided Square.? Can you see it. Drill out every ft. (HOLES,) runners-up the middle, used wooden Peg. 4Runners.?? Take the pole ladder with you, wherever you want. Good job kids ✌🇺🇸✌🤠🍻.

Wow new subscriber here, it took three videos over couple of weeks to get me to subscribe ... I was a PX Ranger myself.... I can't stand the thought of danger

About 3/4 way through, insight about teepee technology

Nailed it

[@huxmetalworks7371]

Hi great video new subscriber I have a couple questions if you don't mind could you give me a couple of ideals I'm a little confused on how to figure the diameter and the length of the poles one more thing can you give me an idea on approximately how many poles you use you do great work I like your Channel keep it up and by all means I appreciate you sharing with me thanks

[@jinxjones5497]

_it appeared to be 11 poles so maybe an even dozen if one was obscured but the other questions will depend on the dimensions of the covering you have._

[@rushyahr7423]

Okay, exactly halfway through... This guy's starts pulling out old school carpentry stuff applied to bush craft... Really dude, you have no stops on how much you can bushcraft

[@kennethvalerio1294]

Trial-error 👍

[@rushyahr7423]

Sounds crazy, lash cord set? Huh? Come on, good idea,I know it sounds crazy but I know you think it might be a good idea.

[@rushyahr7423]

Damn native American technology was cool

Nice. Bet the chicken flock fares poorly walking around in the woods. Hoot Hoot.

Nahhh they do alright. My dog keeps predators at bay. She’s a shepherd and considers them part of her flock to protect
