Video Transcription

hey submission in a survival say I'm gonna be making an adjustable partner don't go away all right so what I'm looking for this is a nice V split it's not really a why it goes up here be a why it's more like a bee that's nice and strong this is a beach and it's alive its greens which is what I want as well so i'm going to take the whole sapling it's about eight nine feet tall maybe 10 the most and i should be able to make all the other parts of my of my adjustable pot hanger from this one sadly so i take the smallest amount of material from the woods you

okay that's what I'm doing I'm just trying to get this probably set up so it's right over my fire and funds i'm going to make a little nick where I want to cut it and also left this piece long right here so I can drape socks and other clothes with my fire dries what to do is make a little long that I need to just cut it down so I just lightly squared it off so this is the top okay so now I'm going to work on cutting making a stop cut back a little bit maybe a quarter of an inch cutting into that to create a nice flat groove nice shelf that I'm gonna be able to put my my pot hook alright just what I do need a quick notch in their little stop cut so I just cut down this way and then I cut towards it from this angle and I made it tilt back just a tiny bit see how it tilts in a little okay so I'm going to put my hangar right on here we'll see how it fits I apologize if it's getting a little tougher to see obviously it's training tonight now this book is not ideal shape like they'd be a little flatter than this but again I'm trying to use just a sapling that one sadly is I really want to conserve my resources being the plants around me I don't just chop down a bunch of stuff to make a pot hang okay so I'm going to just get this so it's the lowest setting possible something will get my Billy can so I can size it up okay so as my Billy can hope you can see this no I'm going to just slowly bring it down without the tight I want it to be at the lowest set I'm going to get this as low as possible so just embers ok it's sitting I know hang bring up tiny bit robison week

it's going to work right there I'm gonna put my finger there that's where I'm going to make my first notch okay so I'm just going to make my stuff that just built my fire up hopefully you guys can see what I'm doing looks like you can three plus moussaka there's no quick 43

that's what I got okay nice clean stop that going right in thanks and I'll see how it fits we're just not gonna fire down a little bit now this is what a tweaking phase comes in

this is where you fix the issues I need to be fixed just bend the bottom out a little bit so it's a little easy a little deeper here smooth investigation definitely she'll be doing you here we go right

step off the top angle just cut right across it to make a nice flat all right it's fitting sitting much better now so let's sort of pot on it see how hacks ok

okay so you can see it's free free hanging move it a little bit just above my Amber's perfect that's the first thing you want to make is the longest then from there all you do is go further up cos mi notch right here I'll just make another notch right here right here right here so every inch inch-and-a-half and all that's going to do is take my Billy can when it's over the fire and it's just going to raise it up an inch an inch an inch and if I can do as many as I want until you know it's all the way up and my last notch is right by the Billy can itself and I'll be way up in the air which I usually don't use so i usually only end up making about four or five and i'm good to go okay so i like the store my book right where my IV is how everything's out of the way nice and clean I can dry things I can cook very easily well watered r everything I want to do over my file my bill account and everything's organized and clean and the best part is that I can really adjust how much heat I end up using by moving my Billy can up and down on my fire so if I want to cook something slow that's really easy going to really cook something fast that's really easy too and I'm not just taking my Billy cannon sitting into my fire because you know I've found that it boils over it gets too hot and then you get some water and it messes up your embers and water comes out boils out things like that so now you can really control the exact temperature or though the heat result that you want inside you Billy can when you're cooking why I was too much notice of i'll appreciate your views your promise and support and you should definitely go try out okay bye Billy can making you adjustable partnering it really does come in handy and make a huge difference on your cooking have a great day next lock
