    Every bushwhacker on CZcams should take a page on pacing out of the Grim Granite playbook. I love nature, but I don't need 10 minutes of walking through the woods, ill go the woods. I also want to hand it to GG for effectively scripting and editing. And finally, that's a rad f'n hoodie, sir. Thank you for the content.

    This is an exceptionally rare and awesome video in the whole 'bushcraft' genre man. There's a thousand 'build a fire' etc videos out there. But it's super rare to find someone that's teaching people to 'hey, rip it down and make it better'. Those are some skills that get called soft but are as hardcore as learning to garden. This is the first video I've seen from you. But I'm in man. You're doing good work.

    My girlfriend makes dresses and she was very entertained. I appreciate the encouragement to attempt this. You made it seem easy.

      That’s awesome! Guaranteed she knows more than I do! 🤓 You can absolutely make this! It took me several tries to get parts of it right, but it’s fun to see the end result!

    Wow! I will be buying a blanket and making one myself. This was immensely informative and the design of the jacket is perfect! Thanks for another great video!

    well done, sir, First, if this was your first sewing project, then you did an amazing job! I needed a lot more practice before I tackled something like this. Second, consider buying a seam ripper - it’s a simple and cheap tool that people use in sewing that makes the work of separating seams a lot easier than a Swiss Army knife. Keep em coming!

    This is freaking awesome, I have some old sewing stuff from my grandma gathering dust, I should fix it up and make some stuff like this.

    Pretty sweet. I just am not good with heat management without a 1/2 to full zipper. I will attempt to make this by fall and give you feedback. I used to make packs and such.

    • @grimgranite
      @grimgranite  Před rokem +1

      A zipper would be a huge benefit for sure! Love that idea. Can’t wait to hear about how it goes for you! Thanks for watching.

      @@grimgranite I suppose if I want to really Bushcraft this. I could make a full lace up, or fashion buttons from a small tree.

    Bro! You have outdone yourself. As it happens my mother is a seamstress and as it happens I've worked in a factory sewing garments myself. Just 1 trick you missed which was you would usually make a paper pattern from the original disassembled garment. That way you can reuse your design and i guess you could find a program to transpose the pattern into digital form so you can share/sell it.

    • @grimgranite
      @grimgranite  Před rokem

      Thanks, man! That’s interesting that you have had that experience, very cool. It’s funny you mention the patterning and digitizing process… I actually had recorded a whole section about how I was going to import it into Adobe Illustrator, scale the images, and trace them to make digital patterns. I ended up cutting it from the video but I think I may make a separate video about that process at some point. I didn’t want to put that info out there without first validating that I could do it first. 😅 Once I replicate this jacket using the digitized patterns, I will feel better about sharing for sure. Fun stuff for sure! Thanks for the comment!

    i always say sewing your clothes is the difference in thinking in 2d and 3d, deff takes mental tenacity

    I eont have a sewing machine but ive been trying to hand stitch gear from my worn through wool shirts. love the video..

    • @grimgranite
      @grimgranite  Před rokem +1

      That’s really cool! I think a sewing machine just makes it faster, but if you have the time and patience it can turn out really well if done by hand. Thanks for sharing and good luck on making your gear!

  • @moto-fl3rd
    @moto-fl3rd Před 11 měsíci

    They actually make a seam ripper that works way faster than a knife or clippers.

    Could I get a link or a pattern to the jacket

    • @grimgranite
      @grimgranite  Před rokem

      I don’t have a pattern digitized at this point. I basically found a jacket that fit and took it apart, then traced the parts.

    How could i do this without buying an anorak for the measurements

    • @grimgranite
      @grimgranite  Před 6 měsíci

      In the video I show that I cut apart an old sweatshirt to make the pattern. You could try that. 👍🏻
