17M views · 106K reactions | Truco para que no se vuelen los manteles. Las más antiguas sabéis que llevo haciendo este truco muchos años pero hoy tocaba hacerlo en casa de mi madre. Está técnica funciona a la perfección cuando se usa mantel resinado o plastificado para que no se deshilache la zona de los agujeros. Lo peor de todo es que en mi casa… aún no me ha dado tiempo a hacerlo! ¿¿Cuantas lo habéis hecho a lo largo de todos estos años??? #diy #truco #trucomantel #trucoverano #hack #idea #deco #decohacks | mimodemami.com
2.8M views · 103K reactions | 10 Survival and Bushcraft Tips - some of my best outdoor! #Diy #wood #Bradley #craft | By Bradley Bradley | Reasons why you want to keep a pencil sharpener in your survival pack. A lot of them are made of magnesium and that's the kind you want. I'm scraping fine shavings off of it with the back of my knife. Then I'll ignite these with a spark. Magnesium dust burns extremely hot at over 4000 degrees. Now I'm going to grab some dry sticks. Then I'll stick them in the sharpener like I would a pencil making a bunch of shavings. It's a really quick and easy way to make lots of dry tender for getting a fire started. It's a good option for if you don't feel like making feather sticks. Then you're left with a bunch of sticks that have very points and these can be used as mini spears like for frog gigging. Just imagine if that was a frog or a squirrel. So to get a fire started, I would make my shavings then combine them with all the dry tender then I'll give it a spark with my pharaoh rod. The magnesium will spark very hot and then ignite the tender. One of the best and most efficient ways to cook food in the wilderness, the Swedish torch. Take a small section of log and split it into quarters. Then shave off the inside corners of each section but only about two thirds the length of the log. Then do the same thing to the three remaining sections. So now you want to get some small sticks and crisscross them to create a gap in between each section for airflow. Then wrap it up with some wire to hold it all together. And this is what we're left with. So now I'm going to light a fire inside of the log. At this point you just want to keep feeding small dead twigs inside of the torch to get your fire going. Get your bacon ready because your torch is getting hot and it's ready to cook over. This log I'm using wasn't the best because it has a lot of moisture in it so I'm just going to keep feeding small twigs into it to get it nice and hot. Everything in the woods is very wet this time of year but it still burns well and cook my bacon nicely and I was able to heat up some coffee. I'm going to take some rock and boil them. I'll put as many in there as I can. I'm going to show you a little trick on how to dry your wet boots and socks, gloves while you're out in the woods. After the rocks boil for about 10 or 15 minutes, I'll take them out. Since the rocks are hot, the water will evaporate off of them pretty quick. By boiling the rocks instead of putting them directly on the fire, that will ensure that they don't get too hot so they don't melt your boots or burn your clothes. I'll put the rocks in this sock for even more protection then I'll stuff it in my boot. Then I'll put some in my gloves. The heat from the rocks will dry out the insides of them. Then I'll set them somewhat close my fire so that the outsides will dry as well just not too close to your fire you don't want them to burn or get too hot and dry too fast that is what you call a pine knot lighter wood fat wood there's all different kinds of names for it this stuff is like gold in the woods to find this stuff first you want to locate a bunch of pine trees and I'm looking for dead fallen pines the fat wood is going to be located in these dead branches coming off the tree you can also find it in dead branches on live trees but they're too high up and harder to get to you can find it in the center of dead pine stumps as well but in my area I do better finding it in branches. You want to cut the branch flush with the trunk of the tree. You can see it's a solid amber colored wood because of its high resin content and it smells so good. As a very very strong pine scent smells like turpentine. Most of the dead branch is going to be rotted and only about a four or five inch section of the branch that's closest to the trunk will be saturated with resin. So I'm going to shave all the rotten wood off of this branch. But this is about as much fat wood as I'm going to usually get out of one of these larger branches. Now I'll show you why this stuff is so great to have out here. I'll make some fine shavings from this piece. Take my pharaoh rod and give it some sparks. This stuff is highly flammable because it's so saturated with resin so it lights on fire very easily. Almost like soaking a piece of wood and kerosene. Great stuff for getting a fire going or for torches or even nice pine-scented candles. I'm going to show you how to make a long-lasting torch with all-natural materials. This might look like an ordinary log but it's actually one of the most valuable things you can find in a survival situation. This is a dead pine branch and most of this is all rotten but this is what we're after. That beautiful amber-colored wood. The end of the log is full of pine resin which burns like kerosene like I showed in my fat wood video. I'm going to take the end of the log, split it once this way and then this way. Depending on how big the branch is, this torch can burn anywhere from half an hour to over an hour. So I made my first split and then I shoved a twig into it to keep it open then I'll do the same for the other split. So that's what we have so far. To make this a little easier to light, I'm going to split a small piece in the center and you can see how easily that's going up in flames and it's wind resistant. Now, you can carry this around so you can see in the dark. If you want, you can stick it in the ground, use it as a tiki torch. This is also a great way to get a fire going. If everything in the woods is wet after a long rain or during a rain, put it on.
