There are many ways to hang a pot or percolator over a fire. In this video, I show a few well known ways and some never before shown set ups to get the job done.
Always good to be back filming. Where did I learn all this? Well, It all started with an old dude I never met named Red. Red was an expert outdoorsman, camper and woodcrafter. He taught everything he knew to these younger guys named Flat head ED and Big Nose Mac. They camped for years and years with him then, as they grew older, I camped with them two. I guess I got to learn from a combo of three old dudes that really knew what they were doing. Thanks for watching my friend.
Even after 8 long years, Dave is still the man , innovative is the word,it captures many meanings of his never tired mind! David as always is the adamant, effectual and a person blessed with integrity which is hard to find this days!
Love watching your videos, they have inspired me to start making some of my own. Just starting to get in to knife making, I don't have the equipment that you have to make them, but it is fun none the less. The wife and I watch your videos instead of TV most nights. Cant wait for your next one to be uploaded. I have learned a lot from you. Thanks again Dave!
In all my years I have never seen a pot hanger like that one with the two pieces of wood and leather cordage, wonderful idea, I am going to have to make one. Every day is a school day.
I love people who think out side the box , you def do. Im spoiled , I can't watch anyone else, your the best ! :) Ok maybe 1 or 2 but by far yours are the best vids on bushcrafting (I think :)
I watched this years ago and didn't really appreciate it. Now, I'd say it's your 2nd best video of all time...your best being how to use a compass. God bless Red's Rings!
David two million views is because you are T.V. GOLD people like whatching you. You talk sence you are honest and you have realy good knowlage of bushcraft and enginering and you have your old school ways but you also invent new mehtods using new materials and adapt old with new, and in doing so inspire THANK YOU!
I don't know how I have missed your channel till now David, but I'm here now. Congratulations on the subscribers and views (you've got 1 more subscriber now). I feel your pain about Google. I just started my channel and it is really confusing trying to figure out the Google + stuff. Anyway, great video. Bryan
Dave I am disabled and I miss my time in the woods so this is great.You are fun to watch and chock full of good information. Thanks so much and keep em com'in !!!!!!
You are such a great teacher, The way you cover the subject, and then repeat the information is wonderful, You make learning fun, especially for dim-wits like me. I agree with another person that commented about being disabled, Your videos allow me to live vicariously through you. I hope to see more soon.
Hi Dave, hope your Christmas and New Year went well. We miss your videos and are keen to see more soon. Your knowledge, sense of humour, and topics blend well to make great viewing. Look forward to seeing plenty of your work in 2014, your channel gives us plenty of enjoyment.
Happy New Year to you and your vid has got me all enthused for the coming spring to get out there and try all these ways of hang in' Thank you.Hope all is good with you. All the best Vee
(Professor) Dave, you are superior in the Bush; a "Great Educator". I've used so many of your examples and Boy-oh-Boy, they work so well. Thanks a Million
Hope your preserving your videos, would make a nice video book compilation! You have stuff I watch more than once! This being one of them! Just jam packed with awesome bushcraft ideas!
+Gregory House Not really preserving them but I have copies on a hard drive. Pretty much the only place they are right now is on youtube. Im glad you like em so much man!
+reallybigmonkey1 bro I WHO LIKE NOTHING EVER, LOVES them, and I don't pledge allegiance easily, or OFTEN to anything! When I like something it's pretty special, I like Les Stroud, Cody Lundin, Matt Graham, and David Pearson for my bushcraft and survival entertainment! And since three are off air now, YOUR STUCK WITH ME! lol
+reallybigmonkey1 yes YOU ARE SIR! Please accept my accredation on it if nothing else! You are EXACTLY LIKE THEM! you push the CRAFT always never yourself! You film mistakes, screw iOS, and total FUBAR outings and show them for what they are, and how to overcome most anything, and enjoy a good hit meal and drink during the process! So you may not hunt, trap, or fish on camera, we all know you are NOT in a survival situation, and your skills shine through brother honestly, just doing your thing! I would NOT CHANGE NOTHING!! I truly feel you could do it BIGTIME, and I UNDERSTAND, APPLAUD! And AGREE why you won't as well! Just shows you are the genuine article bro! That's Hillbilly stuff most folk know nothing about anymore! Stay in the course is a hillbilly tradition!
I'm really disappointed that Google will not let us converse especially when they have the technology to allow it. WHEN THEY START CHARGING TO VIEW THE CZcams CHANNEL, we will not allow youtube on this computer again!!! Thanks for all of the good work you have done, my Friend. I'll miss the short quips to one another over the few years we have corresponded. Your Friend, CLARK
Dave just a heads-up you might not be aware of, that along with your content, a big part of your channel's success is your personality and delivery. So even a video update "chit chat" about what you've been up to would be worthwhile.
Always good to be back filming. Sometimes you can find them at stores but the best ones are on Amazon. Go there and type in "Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls With Rings" Thanks for watching my friend.
Reallybigmonkey1 Hope you're in a position where you COULD make videos if you wanted to. 30K+ subs...suddenly no content seems unusual. If vids are out, maybe you could post a blog? I'd read it.
Android Pal then we couldn’t hear his infectious laughter, his melodious deep southern drawl, his “lil jewels”, and that wouldn’t be cool! I d read it too just for the record but I’d miss a lot of above mentioned. 🤘
That is realy nice to see you back on the screen ! it is in deed a very bad thing youtube did about the comments... I got the same problem, so , whatever,, as long as you can see the messages.... Stay save dude :-)
Hey friend, I know you don't answer comments anymore, But you are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo missed. I must see another video soon. LOL, I do hope that all is well, God bless Dave!!!!!!!!!!! google sucks
I hated being gone so long. Yep, I still answered comments but just couldnt get out and do anything for awhile. I'm glad you like the vids and my hair, lol! Thanks for watching my friend.
that's a great idea Dave. This past weekend I was in the Ocala National Forest for two nights & three days, had some sticks with notches in 'em all set up like so, next time I'll save myself the hassle of cutting out notches & do what you're showing in this video using carabiners. that's nifty as heck! Thanks brother. Be safe & God bless brother!! See Ya!!
Thanks Brother, I'm glad you liked it. Man thats so cool! My In laws have a place in Bellview near Ocala! I love fishing down there. I hope my ideas help out next time. Take care and Thanks for watching
Always good to be back filming. Dude, I HATE Google +. Give a few of these ideas a try, they work pretty cool. I'm glad you liked it, Thanks for watching my friend.
David, My name is Chris, I'm from Wisconsin. My sons and I love watch your videos. We love spending time in the woods as well. Your vids give us a ton of ideas. Thank you for all you have shared. Your friend Chris
Alright... After watchin a whole big bunch of your vids, I've now decided I wanna bring a real lot of lineage of stainless, and some copper rods. Not to mention the fabrics you've already got me thinkin to try and haul. Planning a " rebuild civilization kit" lol. I'm not a machinist of any kind (never tried any welding) but am a builder/ carpenter who can craft a lot of stuff (not requiring welding). But as far as all the uses of simply bent rods goes, I'm super impressed by yours, and already can see me using them, as well as hopefully adding to them. Thank you very much, for all you do David. Very respectfully Dave
Well Dave, after watching a whole buncha my videos you get what I do. Find multiple uses for common objects and gear. Amazing what a bent rod can do. Take care and Thanks for watching
Thank You Dave, Reds Rings work a treat and thank you for all the other videos my friend, it's true what they say, you are never too old to learn. It's summer time here in the UK and we have enjoyed at least 4 consecutive days of sunshine ! Imagine that ? Rain tomorrow I'm told, Ah Well. Regards Aye! Chris.
Youre very welcome Chris and Im happy you liked the Rings. All we have had here for two months is blistering hot sunshine. Im ready for Fall! LOL. Take care and Thanks for watching
The stuff you know! Wow! Thanks so much for sharing, all done while being nothing short of the coolest dude on Y-Tube. Good job brother. Big Man in Maine
Thanks! I'm glad you like the videos. Yes, if you wanted to you probably could use a wooden toggle. I just go ahead and make up and keep the hooks because they are so handy. Im always happy to share stuff brother. Thanks for watching my friend.
Saying hello to master David right from woods sitting next to a fire. Shelter up on a tree is build as well. Thank you very much for all your time and knowledge. We love your videos. Hope you will be back soon. Take care!
Thanks Paul ! I'm glad you liked it, I gotta say , Reds Rings are probably the most simple and trouble free method on here. Not to mention they weigh almost nothing. Make up a set and give em a try. Take care and Thanks for watching my friend.
I just started watching bushcraft videos and find yours to be the most entertaining. Your unpretentious approach is quite refreshing. You leave in your mistakes, although you could easily edit them out. Keep up the good work.
Hi Dave - I have watched a countless number of your videos-love ‘em all; so relaxing, informative and entertaining. One of them is inspiring me to actually think about getting a sewing machine and learn how to use it. Another one on how to keep from getting lost and how to recover if you do get lost, all by using a compass, is very empowering; I forwarded it to family members so they don’t end up like Geraldine Largay. Though I am 66 yrs old and haven’t taken time to pursue camping in my spare time, I am big on all the basics of survival and being prepared to deal better with life’s uncertainties. Thank you for all your videos. They are much appreciated. I actually find them to be good therapy when I need to relax and unwind from all the craziness going on over the past few years with COVID, etc. Keep up the great work for as long as it brings you joy. All the best to you!
Fantastic to hear you enjoy the videos and learn from them. The world may be nutso right now but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying life and the outdoors! Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching John
Those things sure help with changing the heighth of the pot without having to rehang rope over and again. They are clever. You've thought those handles out real well. I think the double hooks also give more stability to the pot. Well done. That tripod disk is really neat! If the disk was made bigger a fast tarp shelter could put up quickly. Especially when those sudden severe storms pop up.
Thanks, I'm glad you like the set ups. I made a welded disc mucho larger than the twist disc and made it a tarp teepee. So, you and I must think alike!
@@Reallybigmonkey1 Great Idea. Metal will hold the weight and pressure better than a wood circle. It would probably crack and break wood in a wind and severe storm. Good job!
I never get sick of seeing Red's Rings on your channel. I also use leftover household wire like you for hanging or wrapping things around the house. I actually also have some of the wire coated by that plastic material also, to hang a bottle off my backpack and have a couple pieces of it in all my packs for emergency use when it is too cold or wet to mess around w cordage. It has also been helping hold down my tarps around that year round hammock shelter of mine I told you about for nearly 3 full years now.
I'm glad you liked the set ups. That taut line set up is a handy one for swinging away from the fire. I usually just go up and down with it tho. It works great prrobably either way. I had heard they did away with the responses because of spamming the larger youtube channels, like the Vevo channels. Thanks for watching my friend.
Man... Another awesome video. Several neat pot hanger set ups that I've never seen before. And a couple that I remember my dad and grandad using in the woods when I was young.
Glad to see you makin videos again, like how you keep camping down to earth without resorting to high tech gadgets and stuff. Keep makin these Awsome videos.
Always good to be back filming. Man, I try not to complain much because youtube is a free site but it used to be so much more user friendly. Its like they are sucking the fun out of it. I'm glad you liked it, Thanks for watching my friend.
Back in 1973 I was invited to a BSA Wood Badge a training course for Theodore Roosevelt Council Phonix Az…. All of these techniques were covered in that course. But over the years I had forgotten about most of them but your “Reds Rings” were taught and I have replaced the wood with Karabiners, in fact Karabiners can be used in nearly all of your “Waltzing Matilda - boiling Billy” (Billy being the pot) set ups…
Wow! That twist-disc thingy' seams like a really smart setup! Easy to store in your backpack and easy to operate in the heat of a intense outdoor cookout extravaganza. I'm definitely going to build me one of those. Thanks for the great tip!
LOL, Im ok brother! Always good to be back filming. I gotta agree man, there is such a thing as thinning out the smaller trees to give more room for the bigger ones. Most of the comments on killing trees just get deleted, I never bother answering them. Thanks for watching my friend.
Always good to be back filming. Where did I learn all this? Well, It all started with an old dude I never met named Red. Red was an expert outdoorsman, camper and woodcrafter. He taught everything he knew to these younger guys named Flat head ED and Big Nose Mac. They camped for years and years with him then, as they grew older, I camped with them two. I guess I got to learn from a combo of three old dudes that really knew what they were doing. Thanks for watching my friend.
Another awesome thing about this guy, is that after scrolling down, he actually responds to the people. Very respectable.
One thing hasn't changed about CZcams, your videos are still awesome and a lot fun to watch.
Even after 8 long years, Dave is still the man , innovative is the word,it captures many meanings of his never tired mind!
David as always is the adamant, effectual and a person blessed with integrity which is hard to find this days!
IT GETS BETTER AND BETTER EACH TIME I WATCH OLDER SHOWS A BLAST FROM THE PAST. 🇺🇸👍🦃
Fantastic to hear that Mark! I think I had more energy back then. Lol. Thanks for watching brother
I love rewatching your videos. Thank you Dave.
Fantastic to hear that John!

Thanks Heather! That's great to hear. Thanks for watching and may God bless you too

I'm glad you liked it, Its good to be back, Thanks for watching my friend.
Really miss your videos of all I've seen yours were kind,funny and informative. I wish you and Nick the best.
Alright... After watchin a whole big bunch of your vids, I've now decided I wanna bring a real lot of lineage of stainless, and some copper rods. Not to mention the fabrics you've already got me thinkin to try and haul. Planning a " rebuild civilization kit" lol. I'm not a machinist of any kind (never tried any welding) but am a builder/ carpenter who can craft a lot of stuff (not requiring welding). But as far as all the uses of simply bent rods goes, I'm super impressed by yours, and already can see me using them, as well as hopefully adding to them. Thank you very much, for all you do David. Very respectfully Dave
Well Dave, after watching a whole buncha my videos you get what I do. Find multiple uses for common objects and gear. Amazing what a bent rod can do. Take care and Thanks for watching
Thank You Dave, Reds Rings work a treat and thank you for all the other videos my friend, it's true what they say, you are never too old to learn. It's summer time here in the UK and we have enjoyed at least 4 consecutive days of sunshine ! Imagine that ? Rain tomorrow I'm told, Ah Well.
Regards Aye!
Chris.
Youre very welcome Chris and Im happy you liked the Rings. All we have had here for two months is blistering hot sunshine. Im ready for Fall! LOL. Take care and Thanks for watching
Thank you for this excellent video. So many great ideas! Keep up the great work!
Again, thank you for this excellent video.
You are very welcome my friend and I'm glad you liked it!
I do enjoy your videos, as you always put a lighter side of it in them, keep them coming.

Thank you David. I appreciate your valuable teaching. These ideas are simply AWESOME!! And it's just just great thAt you share these ideas with folks.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it, Im happy to share, I just wished I had more free time to film. The family is doing good. Thanks for watching my friend.
Thanks! I'm glad you like the videos. Yes, if you wanted to you probably could use a wooden toggle. I just go ahead and make up and keep the hooks because they are so handy. Im always happy to share stuff brother. Thanks for watching my friend.
I'm new & I wanted to say thank you for making all the informative videos. You are fun to watch. You make things easy to remember.
That walking stick set up has got to be one of the cool'st things I've seen!! This video is awesome David !! Thank u
Thank you Josh! I'm glad you liked it that much. Thanks for watching brother
That twist disk is brilliant the way you lock your cord in the three notches. Brilliant ideas, sir! Thanks. Jules
steinwaygoat Thanks Jules! I'm glad you liked it. It really makes for a quick easy set up. Thanks for watching my friend.
Saying hello to master David right from woods sitting next to a fire. Shelter up on a tree is build as well. Thank you very much for all your time and knowledge. We love your videos. Hope you will be back soon. Take care!
Im glad you like the videos, I'll be back filming when life slows down a little.
Thanks Paul ! I'm glad you liked it, I gotta say , Reds Rings are probably the most simple and trouble free method on here. Not to mention they weigh almost nothing. Make up a set and give em a try. Take care and Thanks for watching my friend.
Whatever you do, don't quit posting videos. I really enjoy watching your videos and have learned a lot from them. Keep up the good work.
I just started watching bushcraft videos and find yours to be the most entertaining. Your unpretentious approach is quite refreshing. You leave in your mistakes, although you could easily edit them out. Keep up the good work.

Everyone thinks the twist disc took the cake but I think the rig you did for a bail was the most ingenious thing you did. I really liked that rig.
Always good to be back filming. Thanks for watching my friend.
Glad to see you back. Being a southern boy from Tennessee I like to see people from the south.
Excellent video! Great setups that I will have to try. I'll be going back to this video time and time again until I get these down pat.
Thanks! I'm happy you liked it. Try all this set ups. They are so much fun!
Thanks Brother Jamie, I'm glad you liked it, Thanks for watching my friend.
Thanks Brother! I'm glad you liked it, Its always good to get back on here. Thanks for watching my friend.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it, Thanks for watching my friend.
This is one of my favorite of all your videos.
Thanks sydney! My favorites to film are the ones I get fed in the end. LOL.
Another great video. My favorite was the two rings. Excellent.
Thanks Kevin! I'm glad you liked it
thanks for all of your knowledge Dave ....I`ll just keep watching your old vids and learning
Those things sure help with changing the heighth of the pot without having to rehang rope over and again. They are clever. You've thought those handles out real well.

I had heard they did away with the responses because of spamming the larger youtube channels, like the Vevo channels. Thanks for watching my friend.
I like watching your vids as you are an innovative thinker and thus contribute to the survival safety scene.
Thanks! I'm glad you like the videos and thanks for watching!
Man those homemade pots of Yours look great, nice idea there! Thx for the video as always I learn a lot from them
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it and learned from it. Thanks for watching

A lot of good info and fun to watch as always! Thanks
Its about time aint it? LOL. Thanks for watching my friend.
Man... Another awesome video. Several neat pot hanger set ups that I've never seen before. And a couple that I remember my dad and grandad using in the woods when I was young.
Glad to see you makin videos again, like how you keep camping down to earth without resorting to high tech gadgets and stuff. Keep makin these Awsome videos.
Always good to be back filming. Man, I try not to complain much because youtube is a free site but it used to be so much more user friendly. Its like they are sucking the fun out of it. I'm glad you liked it, Thanks for watching my friend.
I just bought a Zebra pot so it's great to see all these options. I don't have a workshop. I will use slip knots and wire hanger hooks. Thank you!
Back in 1973 I was invited to a BSA Wood Badge a training course for Theodore Roosevelt Council Phonix Az…. All of these techniques were covered in that course. But over the years I had forgotten about most of them but your “Reds Rings” were taught and I have replaced the wood with Karabiners, in fact Karabiners can be used in nearly all of your “Waltzing Matilda - boiling Billy” (Billy being the pot) set ups…
always salute you when I watch and laugh smile great vids
Thank you Marc!
I made Red's pot hanger and it turned out great thanks, Even my wife was impressed!! It takes some doing to get an 'impressed' out of her!!
Wow! That twist-disc thingy' seams like a really smart setup! Easy to store in your backpack and easy to operate in the heat of a intense outdoor cookout extravaganza. I'm definitely going to build me one of those. Thanks for the great tip!
crazygamingswede Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. Thats great you plan on making one, it really makes the cook set ups a lot easier to manage.
LOL, Im ok brother! Always good to be back filming. I gotta agree man, there is such a thing as thinning out the smaller trees to give more room for the bigger ones. Most of the comments on killing trees just get deleted, I never bother answering them. Thanks for watching my friend.
Always good to be back filming. Yep, I love using that twist disc, it makes set up so quick and easy. Thanks for watching my friend.
Thanks for all the great vidios last year and I'm looking forward to more!
Sounds cool. Carabiners work well but I used the wooden rings out of respect for Red since he created it that way. Thanks for watching.
