hey Perry peacock here beside our personal survival shelter this is our may have seen a video on it this is our poncho rain poncho that can be a tarp and also be a hammock and I've got it set out as a hammock here I slept in there last night not very comfortable and I just trying out our new cocoon cover now that goes over the top of it which is just a very small cover just big enough to allow you to sleep in this at night and be sheltered from the rain and that sort of thing overhead so I just wanted to show you something this goes along with our simplifying survival core training module and all of our survival kits come with a come with a Swiss Army knife of either the camp or hiker series and I want to show you a couple things you can do with this and what I want to do is probably going to take a nap sometime later today I just want to guide this thing out right here and this thing here is way too flimsy so I'm just going to stake down over here on the ground and and tie off a parachute cord to here I wanted to show you some things you can do with your Swiss Army knife and make a Ted Kord line tensioner so let's show you how to do that here okay the Swiss Army knife comes with a couple Blaze we're going to use here today the saw blade which that blade is very sharp very aggressive the teeth or wider have a wider profile than the back does so once you cut through it the teeth that the back is not going to give you any resistance so we're going to use that tool and we're also going to use the reamer tool which I I call drill reamer it's also got a little hole in here for you can use it as a sewing awl and I'll
show you that in another video but let's want to make us one of these line tensioners which here's one right here finished and this is this is very handy normally I use the tart line hitch just about all the time but it's kind of nice to be able to do this or to know how to do this this when you tighten up with one of these so you have some pretty rugged wind conditions this thing will not let go of your of your cord when you tighten it up with this the way we do it it really binds down on it and it's not slipping at all so let's go ahead and get started here okay I've got a stick here about finger diameters what you're looking for and I'm going to cut a section off of it so what I want to do is get out the saw and about hand white fist light or whatever is good and this fallen trees gives me a little bit of a kind of a rest right here where I can hold this thing so all we want to do just take the Sun just going to cut through this thing okay that's all we got to do right there now let's go ahead and maybe I'll shorten it up a little bit it's easy enough to do okay that's about right now let's go ahead and get our holes drilled alright so I'm going to get out the reamer tool and I'm using it as a drill today so how to do is come back about a finger width from the end and I go back and forth just a little bit like this just to kind of get a hole started ish initially and after that all I do is just turn it like this and what I do is if I'm making these what I do is I just drill when I get about halfway through I'll pull it out and kind of clear the chips and start again now one the point of it starts coming out this other side
like right now and it's very quick just to go to the other side like this get started and now we just go back through and clean that hole out all the way through all right we're good to go here I kind of run it around a little bit like that just kind of get it nice and all cleared out so there you go we got one hole so we're going to do the same thing come over to the other hand of the stick start right there and we just drill on through here I've got it just coming out the other side there we go
cuz this could be a handy use I mean you might possibly use it in making some kind of trap or snare or I have used it times one time I was making a as making a pole that I needed to have hanging out over a stream it was about 20 feet below me I was gonna drop a bucket to get water and I needed to have a I needed to have a way of holding the string out there and be able to pull it up and down through the hole in the stick so I made a hole like this and and that's what I did but anyway so there's our two holes and our tensioning tensioning bar so now let's go up here to the to the personal survival shelter and let's hook this thing up okay um I want to guide this thing out a good way so I have a pretty good angle onto that I want it to be flat down on me so I'm gonna come out here a little ways and you get out of tents takin no cake right here we'll shove that thing down in there like that okay now we're good to go okay so I'm going to tie off to this tab so I'm going to tie some cord to that I'm just gonna use my survival bracelet here just pull some off like that and tie me a knot in here and we'll go down to the other end and do it all up right here
put that alright and I'll just pull out let's pull out this cord here alright to use our tensioning bar we're going to do is take our parachute cord and shove it through one of the holes and now we're not going to come back through this way we're going to come around so we go through the same direction that we went through the first hole in and then what we do is just tie a missed a single overhand knot and it's all we need like that okay now we have this our bar here so do now is just pull up the slack in it alright now we've got our tensioning bar in here and as you can see since this court here wraps around he wants to put a twist on on our line it comes from our tarp and so that that creates some tension that keeps this thing from sliding the other thing that also happens is we have leverage this way as well this is our pivot point this is the end of our lever and so as we tighten down on that it just pulls more and more and it and so we have a double twisting action here and the one using some leverage enables us to tighten down on that cord very tightly you know and the more I pull on it I can't pull it straight anymore so tighter I pull so now that thing that thing is set it's not going to it's not going to slide on me in a storm or whatever I'm sad I'm good to go so there you go right there making a line tarp or tenth line tensioning bar with the Victorino Swiss Army knife
you
