and as always....
Stay in the Woods,
Dan
Using 2 branches, gaped to create space between them in place of the board, you could make a awesome latrine seat using this method.
May cause clenching for some people, but not a bad idea!
Gapped. Gaped means something completely different.
@@vf24renegade23 could still come in handy for this use case. Negates @Flashahol 's point.
I thought bed frame before toilet but yes, squeeze in peace haha.
@@vf24renegade23 that's what she said
Hey Dan! Improvement suggestion... You can make this exactly the same way, but instead of 7 notches, cut in dovetails & knock in your cross members so the legs are held together in pairs... then you just offer up the seat plank & no falling apart! 👍👍
Please never change the intro style you have, it literally sets up your video to always be amazing!!! It is short, sweet, simple, to the point and usually funny :)
A goal of mine is to be in a good enough place in my life where I can go through the Coal Cracker Catalog and build all the cool projects.
Make it longer, wider and use some cordage and you have an "easy" raised bed! Thanks for sharing. I am definetely trying this.
Dan, I look forward to seeing your smiling face. I live pretty much in the desert now, but I grew up in Ohio, I love seeing you out in the woods. It reminds me of my youth, probably.
Going to teach this to my Sons weblo pack in two weeks at our first camp out in a year! Great video
Great idea with plenty of details. Thank you for the tutorial. If I may suggest, please build another bench to illustrate the suspension method instead of juggling the pieces in the air while we try to visualize where you were going with this. Still a great video.
In " the ghost and the darkness " they build one of those on a large scale, it's high off the ground and they use it to hunt for the last of the 2 lions. True story.
I now that’s an original and useful bushcraft table build. Good job!
I dig that you show the parts where you have to fiddle around and have some trouble in these videos. It helps :) Thanks :)
That is probably the most epic bench I've ever seen.
I don't think you actually need a 7 notch but a two half round notches on either side and use a round branch for your cross braces. Round branches would be stronger. Excellent idea. Easy to make and put away.
I like the idea as for many years in the BWCAW a small table was something to cook from your stove. This would be a great answer to the problem.
Cool! In all my years, I've never seen that cut. Thank You!!
Nice thanks again all your videos have been very simple to follow and helpful. This will save my knees and back.
You are the most entertaining Bushcrafter, bar none!!! So entertaining that I forget that I am learning
If you have a ready source of bamboo, this works right nicely with that, as well.
I imagine you could alternatively use rope in place of the cross members to forego any cutting... I'll try it in the woods in a couple hours here!
An unexpected decision, I liked it! We need to take a note and try to do the same. Thanks.
Great video 👍👍.
1 thing.
If i was out in the woods, lost trying to survive, i wouldn't be wasting my time building a friction bench.
Great fo the camper in their parents back yard, or home steading.
Have to admit, cool bench.
Not putting u down, ive been in the Western Forests my whole life and researched survuval during my time and I'm yet to try your fire starting ways.
Some , I've never tried an great instruction 👍👍
Thanks Dan enjoyed this bush craft adventure!👍👍👍👍

I'm seeing a bedframe, and in colder weather that can go over a buried bed of embers as well.
After further perusal, it'd also make for a hammock/netmaking loom/frame too.
Здорово! Идея может сгодиться не только как скамеечка!Но и как мост через ручей!)))Возьму на заметку!!!
That was a "top notch" video Dan 😀
i guess it's pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to watch newly released series online ?
I can see some good ideas with this. A simpler, possibly portable, bench. If you cut large square notches in the seat you can get rid of the small stick cross pieces
bankline jam knots or lashings for the lower crossmember on both sides would make life easier, could do one side at a time with one strand to keep from leaving the string; could awl a hole with a SAK and pin crossmembers with twigs, thats the route id take. great tutorial!! this video convinced me that i in fact like you and could hang out.
I liked when you put the first cross piece on and it came together. Such awesome stuff. I will do you the honors of spreading the word. Thanks. From south Jersey.
Great job! Love the bench. That would look cool in the garden or even on the porch. Amazing work. Thank you for sharing, Dan.
Dan I went on a weekend trip to a national forest here in Louisiana. I was able to apply some of the things I learned from your videos. I was in the Marines and was never taught these skills because of having to be tactical. Everyone asked did the Marines teach you that? I gave all the credit to your channel. Thanks for passing on this knowledge. Jorge
Isn't it hilarious when people ask that? I realize they simply don't know, watch too much TV maybe. Hell, I learned all my knot tying in Boy Scouts as a child, not the Army! LOL
the most fun outside of the box thinking outdoor channel i've found - nice!
Dan, as always "GREAT"!!
Dan I love watching your videos, some has just came across CZcams from years ago.... I've started a Playlist of your videos to keep & refer back to; I'm an arm amputee so some of this is going to be more of a challenge but, I love a good challenge 😉 I've watched other videos but alot aren't clear w/closed ups to see what they're doing or can't hear them clearly. Thanks for getting & explaining clearly!!! I wish I could attend some of your classes but, your a little to far from Georgia; Thanks Again, I appreciate what you do 😁
I love this one! Thank you! Will try that with the next sapling I cut down from my yard!
Assembly of this bench is far less complicated than an IKEA piece. Great project.
Love it! Quite an advanced build, but simple enough.
Just like a DaVinci bridge, pretty cool
Thank you for your constant up attitude its frigin owesome
That is just fab! I’ve never seen a bench like that before! I’d love my scouts to build something like that. Thanks 🙏🏻⚜️
Great idea and something of a simple base to expand on. Another tool for the tool box. Keep up the awesome videos Dan
Greetings from a Brit living in Latvia. Great bench, gonna make a few of these.
Wow. A really nice bench. Friction fitting is always interesting. With all the bamboo in my backyard it would be easy to throw some shapes together. The simplest one is three lengths spaced parallel. Just get a few shorter pieces and alternate an over-and-under like a weave. Don't try to use it as a bench, though. Probably better suited as a simple framing for a lean-to.
Love this channel , great presentations always , top. Notch , useful and very informative
I really loved this one. I would like to see more like this one.
This is a take off of the Da Vinci Bridge. Love it.
Sporting the Gerber Knives shirt today! LOL Good on ya!
Yep, caught that too.
Wow i see so many potential uses for the 7 notch. Thanks for learning me something new
Awww, man! I really wanted to see you stand on it to show how sturdy it is!! Now I'm sad. ;-) No, really, this is very cool. At first I wasn't picturing how you could possibly substitute logs for the board, but once you put it together it all made sense.
great fun little project - gotta try it out! thanks!
Really cool idea, and great humor as always 😄
cool, thanks for this video! Practical and very useful as usual. I've tried making a bushcraft style workbenchafter watching your videos, and now I can add a 7-notch to my bushcraft toolkit :) Greetings from Germany
Great project my brother!
Stay safe and have fun!
This is seriously cool. Thanks for the instructional video Dan!
$10 says that Corporal Shawn Kelly will be sleeping on a larger version of this thing by the end of this week. :-)
Great post.....gotta try that.
Thanks
Fun video! Thanks for sharing.
Great product.
Can't wait to see if I can get it first time
Simple and bad ass. Thanks for sharing.
This was really cool. Thanks!
Good stuff. I love stuff like this.
Outstanding!
Great vid as always. Could make a drinking game of every time you say “7 notch” you take a shot. :-)
Hic
Prepper in the Woods I did. Surprised I can still type.
First let me say, you are so close to 250k subs man!!! Yeah baby!!! It’s crazy how fast your last 100k have come. When you guys hit 150k that seems like the springboard.
As always Dan, the skills and techniques you teach make me wonder how else might I use this. The seven notch, yeah okay. But the reverse seven notch below it... friction or not.... yeah man, now we’re talkin’!
I use an 3/4 inch auger bit to make Adirondack type chairs and to make tables, I also use it to put pegs into trees to hang gear..
This uses the same principles as the Scouts used for a footbridge. I like the 7 notches, they make construction easier.
Hey Dan here's a thought... Cut a round Circle in the Seat board and now you have a Toilet 🤣
No Squatting🤔😂😂😂
Great idea!
That's pretty cool!
Brilliant!
Instead of using those 7-notches and fidling with those thin crossbeams, you could attach those crossbeams into the legs with dovetail connections. You are basicly making a 2 squares each with 2 of the legs and 2 crossbeams all connected together. That board will than be inserted into that a square on each side. That way you can create very sturdy and a lot more stable legs on both sides of the board.
Omg. Great video!!
Very cool. Very practical. Great share Dan! You can carry the pieces with you everywhere too. That is awesome! ( :E
Cool man!!!!! So gonna try it.
Thanks Dan Now that was super kool.
Awesome bench
Thanks, that was great!!
Excellent video!!
Awesome dude thank you!!
Genius build
Awesome!
Really awesome idea thanks
Too cool!
Darn it Dan! I just got home from my first camping trip this spring. If you had uploaded this day or two ago, i would have tried this. Now i have to wait a while to try this :-D
Outstanding job brother and I am from Syracuse NY
Thank you for sharing this
That’s neat - got to try that!
You call it a bench but I see it as a bar for pouring shots around the campfire 🤙
You are so totally awesome I have learned so much from you thank you thank you thank you🇵🇱🛶🧸🌈👩🍳🇺🇸
Pretty cool!
Very nice!
Using the field assembled Bucksaw basic design (doubled), you should be able to create a movable bench, maybe with space for fingers to grab in the center...
Pretty cool
SIMPLY AMAZING. HOURRA.
Thank you for the video
Very good plug for skill share made me check them out
That's awesome brother
If you are setting on that bench and it fails. It is going to hurt like hell. However I can see a number of great uses for it. Thanks for the upload
Love this
I really want to try this thanks dan
Cool. never seen that before.
