Today at our North Idaho homestead workshop, we finish the Bose Swayback. I was fortunate today as there were very few distractions taking me away from my Idaho homestead workshop. I managed to finish this amazing blade so I can ship it out to our customer. I also give a sneak peak at what is next on the build list. Stick around to the end to find out what I will be making next in my Idaho homestead workshop.

Milling your own lumber is a revolution in the making. If you have any interest in building anything then no doubt you have watched the price of lumber soar out of control. This price gouging and artificial inflation is making simple home repairs an impossible task. It is almost unstainable the way we are going but the rural American still has an ace up our sleeve. We can make most of our own lumber. A cheap, easy and tax free way to get those small projects completed and get back to enjoying your life. This truly is a revolution in the making.

In this video I make a waxed canvas hood and storage bag. This hood is going to be a great addition to my bushcraft and survival EDC kit. It is perfect for those times when the rain comes on and off and you just cant seem to find the right waterproof layer. I have also made this same pattern hood from canvas cloth, cotton and even wool. You will not believe how comfortable and functional this simple piece of outdoor clothing really is. You simply have to experience this hood out in the elements to get a true appreciation for the comfort and versatility. It also has a generous front pocket to hold your field tools, phone, GPS or anything that you want to keep handy but also safe and dry.

This is a quick video to show you the no BS way to tie guy lines for almost all size tents. It is the fastest way to put the tents up and redeploy them without having to mess with all the tangled up guy lines and knots. Never have to cut the rats nest again. If you have a large military or consumer tent including canvas wall tents and tipi's this is something that you must know to save tons of hassle and frustration when you tie up the guy lines for storage.

In this video I assemble the Granberg small log chainsaw mill. I also assemble a first cut rail system from Amazon and grind my own ripping chain with a budget chain grinder. A chain saw mill is the perfect solution to high lumber prices if you have projects to complete. I am lookin forward to using this chainsaw mill to make all the lumber that I need for those outdoor buildings and projects that I have I have been putting off due to absurd lumber prices that we currently have to deal with in the United States.

In this video I use coppersmithing techniques to make a penannular broach to be use as a kilt pin, hat pin or small blanket or cloak pin. This is a perfect project to celebrate St Patrick's Day in 2021. A broach like this is the historic equivalent to a medieval safety pin. Make a couple and pin them on your gear to have in any emergency. They are plenty adequate to pin a scarf or even a wool blanket. today in the shop Ill show you a quick and simple way to build these with minimal tools or experience. After you finish one or two then I encourage you to go bigger and more elaborate. The sky is the limit when you learn how to make what you need. You can also very easily sell the surplus. good luck on this project. Any question? hit me up in the comments or follow the links below and catch me on socials.

Watch this video to learn a very simple method to make pemmican, it is a stable, long lasting food that is perfect for outdoor adventures. Pemmican is full of protein, fats, and carbohydrates to give you boundless energy when you need it on the trail or in the backcountry. It has been made and used by indigenous peoples, travelers and settlers all over the world. Although it has many different names throughout history and around the world there are a few constants. Pemmican is made from whatever you have on hand or whatever is in season. While we have provided a basic recipe that can be made with ingredients bought in the store, we encourage you to experiment with what you can gather and hunt from the landscape in your region of the world. If you do this you will probably be eating exactly what the people of that area were eating a thousand years ago. bon appetit! -The Makers

SDP 022 FRIENDSHIP | A paradigm shift and a new perspective
Mantra for the week. No friendship is an accident. - O. Henry (William Sydney Porter)
Today we are going to put Friendship into perspective. There seems to be a lot of misinformation about what actually constitutes a friend. Of course, this is just my opinion and this criterion will change for everyone but I think that there are definitely some constants that remain across the board.
This is likely to be a paradigm shift for you concerning what is a friend. We have been conditioned to think that a friend is someone that is always there for you when you need them and especially when you are at your lowest.
What is friendship and how do you build and maintain one?
I don’t think that a friend is some unconditional supporter that is there for you in your dark times. All the MEMES say something to that effect. About you know who your true friends are when you are at your worst etc. I think that is one sided BS. To me that is such a selfish statement that if that is the requirement very few people would live up to that litmus test.
Here are some points to consider:
1 You are only the centre of your universe, not everyone else’s.
2 No one is plotting against you and you are not the topic of every conversation.
3 Friendship is a give and take that cannot exist one sided.
4 Sometimes the best thing a friend can do is give you space to figure your own shit out.
5 Friends listen they don’t lecture; with free advice you get what you pay for.
6 Friends are not at your beckon call, do expect them to drop everything because you need them.
7 Sometimes true friends don’t actually talk to each other for a very long time.
8 Friends communicate open and honest. Sugar is poison.
9 Friends are grateful and reciprocal but not indebted to each other.
10 Above all, A real friend will not put you in a position that makes you uncomfortable.
Here are five things to do with a false friend or toxic relationship:
1 Create distance
2 Limit entanglements
3 Don’t create a tit for tat situation, let it go when you are one up.
4 Don’t share your problems with people you don’t fully trust.
5 Avoid any conversation that has the potential to instigate strong emotional reactions.
BONUS TIP: The enemy of my friend is not my enemy. If I lived by that rule I would have no friends at all. Besides what happens when you snub someone because they had a falling out with one of your friends. Then those two make up and now neither of them wants to talk to you? This has happened to me more than I care to remember. If two friends are falling out then I suggest you just step back let them solve the issue on their own, remain friends with both but keep your distance so as not to appear to have taken a side. And most important, don’t be a double agent. You will be tried and found guilty as a traitor by both sides.
