In this video you will see one of the most unique edc survival kits made from an Altoids tiny no doubt you will see something here that you haven’t anywhere else!
This is a really nice kit and an awesome gift to your son. I really like your use of the heat shrink tubing....Nice:). If there was anything that I would add to this kit, it would be 1.) Some duct tape. Good fire tinder and repairs holes in clothes, gear etc. 2.) More cordage. I recommend micro cord at least 20ft. It's stong and doesn't take up a lot of space. Last but not least number 3.) Anti diarrhea medication. You can't take care of business if you have the trots. I know that this is a gift to your kid and it is a fantastic foundation for him to build and expand on. Great job dad. Keep it up.
I love the candles, cotton ball fire starter, the post-it’s, and the lure. I also like how you got creative. I like how you killed two birds, with one stone with the electrical tape on the nail. You are a creative person.👍
Great use of the shrink tube. You might want to add a couple of water purification tabs and a tiny flashlight of some kind in case you have to dig through you hit in the dark. I also pack any extra space with cotton balls for use as tinder and prevent rattling and movement. Good kit overall, good job!
Ricky Honerkamp Thanks brother! I’m going to order a streamlight nano & definitely pick up some water purification tabs too. Those are really good ideas, I appreciate the feedback 🙏🏻😊
Priority list for emergency survival kit: hope /morale, shelter, water, signaling. Strong food grade plastic bag and water purification tabs, Gorilla tape, floss, heavy duty aluminium foil, emergency contact list. (in case phone brakes or is stolen in an urban setting.) I love some of the original ideas in your kit :)
My thoughts: you said you were putting this kit together for your son; did he have any input? Does he have the skills to survive on his own? Does he know how to use any of the tools in the kit? Also, is he more likely to be in a remote wilderness or urban environment? The four main elements to cover are fire, shelter, water and food. A kit this size will likely not be able to cover much in the way of shelter, so best to focus on fire, water and food, and add in some signaling and navigation tools. Personally I am not a fan of the Altoid tin kit because of size limitations. I prefer a Maxpedition Mini organizer so I can carry more substantial tools: Mini Pocket Organizer Maxpedition Multi Tool Victorinox Farmer Folding Knife Gerber LST Flat Steel Diamond Sharpener EZE-Lap Pry Bar 4" County Comm Widgy Lighter Bic Lighter Sleeve Exotac Ferrocerium Rod 4" X 5/16" Bayite Steel Striker Bayite Magnesium Rod 3" X 3/8" Firesteel 6 Lifeboat Matches & Strike Pad Best Glide 4 Tinder (waxed cotton) Tinder Quik Large Mylar Sheet 96" X 60" Survive Outdoors Longer Bandanna (red) 26" X 26" Water Filter Straw HydroBlu Replacement Pre-Filter HydroBlu HD Plastic Water Bag (1L) WhirlPak Water Purification Tablets AquaTabs Solar Water Disinfectant Bag Tortoise Gear Large Bandage (Neosporin) 4" X 1.75" BandAid 2 Small Bandages (Neosporin) 3" X .75" BandAid Large Patch Bandage 2" X 3" BandAid Knuckle Bandage 1.5" X 3" BandAid Antiseptic Towlette LED Flashlight MagLite AAA Battery Duracell Battery Storage Tube Bison Designs Signal Mirror BCB Adventure Compass Silva Whistle JetScream 2 Sheets All Weather Paper 3" X 5" Rite In The Rain Pen Fisher Space Pen StowAway Pen Refill Cartridge Fisher Black Ink Medium Point Duct Tape 30" X 2" Black FlatPack RediTape HD Braided Carpet Thread 12-15 ft Generic 1 Large Zip Tie Generic 2 Medium Zip Ties Generic 2 Small Zip Ties Generic Since I am constantly reevaluating my gear and improving my skills, there are already some additions and changes I want to make: 2nd water bag WhirlPak snare wire Fourdrinier better cordage 100 ib test Spiderwire or bank line braided fishing line 12 ib test Spiderwire braided fishing line 65 ib test Spiderwire fish hooks w/ leaders newer compass Suunto or Brunton spare battery in straw instead of Bison tube Live Fire Sport Trend dual grit sharpener card Anyway Bro, just my two cents (actually it was just over $300!) for what it's worth. The real deal is to get out in the woods with your kid and teach him how to use what he's going to carry, and enjoy teaching him to be self reliant. Best of luck!
Very ingenious. I need to learn how to use some of those things! I love the form factor. Lot of great ideas there, especially the straws-great for meds. The fishing hook with “bait” great too. Oh, LOVE stay-lit candles, yet another great idea. :)
Very useful items.......You could add a safety pin. Ideal if you lose a button. A piece of braided jute twine soaked in candle will which burns for several minutes and might be good if you have enough space.
Yes! I'm planning one to give to my mother and one for my SO, both of which are getting into survivalism. Definitely going to add some of your ideas in there!
Holy crap I never thought of the match striker doing some sticky stuff. GOOD idea keeps it nice and secure. That moldable stuff super cool never heard of it and that figurine super awesome!!! Numerous new ideas I’ve not seen anyone else do! Huge like! Great little kit! I’m downloading so I don’t loose this video lol.
Nice kit! It definitely needs a whistle (essential communication item) and a flashlight. You want to be rescued, whether in the woods or in a building collapse. The Bic can be used but clumsy and difficult to use if you are hurt; also not doable in an urban situation where gas lines might be broken. Sugar-free gum can be used to fill a cavity if need be. It lasts forever, unlike the dental kit material. Box cutter blade seems dangerous--straight-edged razor might be better. I use a small triple ointment packet. Crimping the tin closure ever so lightly allows for a better seal; putting a widish ranger band around the circumference (over the opening part) aids in closure and waterproofing.
Love your kit but something important for u to know is that despite us all thinking hydrogen peroxide was wound cleanser for decades.... It's now advised based on evidence not to use anything but water to wash wounds. Antiseptics, especially hydrogen peroxide can cause the slowing of wound healing to sometimes an extreme level. The risks out weigh the benefits is what it comes down to. Also I also just learned Neosporin can cause antibiotic resistance and petroleum jelly w a bandage works just as well. "Soap can help if the wound is really grimy, but you have to make sure that any grit or dirt is completely rinsed away. Don't use alcohol, iodine, peroxide, or anything harsh that can damage the tissues and delay healing.12" Hydrogen peroxide is however useful for many other things. Just not wound care. :) Thanks for the video still great info overall
Hydrogen peroxide is used to debris foreign objects from the wound the moment that it occurs. It’s not intended for daily wound care. In a survival kit we’re using this to help you in short window of time until you can make it to medical care. Docs at my hospital Still prescribe Neosporin for small wounds on the unit. Pretty common practice. Thanks for the comment!
I have come to believe the real benefit of an Altoids tin is containing a fire starting kit. Just that, no more. Every time I go out I carry a knife, tarp, etc, so just having a guaranteed fire is enuf to expect from such a small container. Matches, lighter, ferro rod, cotton balls. Good enuf.
I recommend Benadryl instead of Claritin. Benadryl could prevent anaphylaxis, Claritin not. Also, Aspirin can help someone having a heart attack, Tylenol would do nothing in that regard.
Vinegar is better than peroxide, trick birthday candles are better than what you put in there. Also smaller hooks can catch small and large fish, a big hook will only catch big fish thus narrowing your chances of food.
Here is some advices: water purification tablets, small water bag, wire saw, button compass, whistle, slingshot rubber band so you can create a slingshot with an Y shape stick, some 8mm steel balls for slingshot ammo, credit card size Fresnel lens that fit perfectly inside the altoids tin so you can make fire from sun light, tiny survival card.
Very nicely done. Definitely BTN. That being said…the idea is basically a last ditch novelty kit. But it stimulates the thought process to help an individual make better decisions about dealing with emergencies. WELL DONE
I could totally survive on that kit at this point my life however if I had that in my pocket when I was 25, I would be using that $20, the razor blade, the mirror and the straws for a completely different reason. Hope your son is more responsible than I was.
Thank you for sharing your Altoids tin with us, nice job. I have seen quite a few of these tins on CZcams and quite a few of them put a nail in the tin. Can I ask what purpose the nail serves as you have nothing to hammer the nail with, does it have another use that I'm not aware of?
A nail can also be used as an auger (like a drill bit) to create holes in wood, it could be used as a nail with a simple stone used as a hammer, and among other uses it can be used as a leather punch to make holes the sewing needle can't make in thicker materials, or even as a sinker for fishing. Another good use is as a nut pick if you come across wild tree nuts. A nut pick allows you to scrape the nut out of a cracked nut without having to smash the nut further than simply cracking it open. I've also found that depending on the nail, the tip can be used on some Philip's head screws or the edge of the head of the nail can be used for flat head screws as a screw driver. Really when it comes to anything, you're only limited by your imagination.
@@Eidolon1andOnly Thank you for your informative reply. Since writing my first comment, I have seen Bush crafters using a nail to "knapp" Flint. To give the Flint a sharp edge so that they can use with a steel to produce a spark.
Yes! I work with a lot of small scale models so I guess my hands are just used to being meticulous with things LOL… I have been terribly lazy lately but I haven’t stopped filming I have tons of videos I need to edit and upload so look out for those coming soon
This blue yellow glue work with saliva or only with pure, distilled water, you use H2O its means chemically pure water, not just water from bottel, pipe or from Shreck swamp.
Hı i like your video. There are many usefull items here. Some people put to in this kits Victorinox 91 mm knives what do you think about that. Have a good day.🙂🙂
Hi Jake, It was a great idea to put a good pocket knife and bic in the tin. I would however beg you to consider covering that box cutter blade if not removing it. An accident with that would compound a bad situation. Your pocket knife would take care of most issues that you have the blade for. Anyway, good luck with your channel.
@@jakealexander3024 thats the thing with these altoids containers, man the possibilities are endless. I am gettin ideas from a bunch of vids and making my own. But yea, the wax hemp wrapped around the lighter man. Good addition
Looks like a fun little project. Not to criticize your efforts but as a "Survival" kit it is sorely lacking. In fact, I do not call my kit other than a get home bag and it weighs 11 lbs in a cloth fishing creel with a shoulder strap. Without covering all of your core needs these "miniture Survival tins" are just toys. In fact, I will surmise that a true survival kit would be too heavy as to require it be carried in a car or van. Getting home to your supply's and shelter needs is the only challenge and a 3 day get home bag is what is needed in 99.9 % of the time. Just saying :)
Survival kits can be any size. How well they keep you safe and alive is a different beast all together. These mini survival kits, work of the principle of the best survival kit is the one you have on you. Meaning these would be with you all the time and small enough that you don't leave it at home. They probably won't make your life comfortable for three days but could save you (with knowledge and a calm mind) for the few hours/days until rescue teams find you. You'd be struggling, but it is better than just having keys and a phone with no signal that most people would have. If it eases your peace of mind, you can call them EDC kits.
Of the hundreds of videos I watch relating to this, I shall drop by and say you did a damn good job.
Thanks brother

Boss, ive seen people wrap their lighter with a wax hemp string. Stays light for a long time.
I watched that same video
Very cool little kit. Thanks for sharing. I would suggest maybe putting those candles in a ziploc bag so if they melt, the wax doesn't get everywhere.
I wrapped hemp wic around my lighter for it to not burn the lighter fluid so fast
Enjoyed the vid, I'm certain your son will appreciate it. Nicely done 😉👍
I think it was greatly detailed and informative information thank u
I like it great tools! Thanks you help me make mine better!

Ahumantau I’m happy to hear that! I think everyone should have an edc survival kit with them at all times 😊
Nice job, I personally like the candles and cane sugar packet tube. Well thought out.
This is a great little supplemental kit, but I'm not sure it would keep you alive by itself.
Nice Your an artist, Thank you
the straw container is a good one.
I recommend Benadryl instead of Claritin. Benadryl could prevent anaphylaxis, Claritin not. Also, Aspirin can help someone having a heart attack, Tylenol would do nothing in that regard.
Thanks Eric!
awesome kit! hoping your son loved it! :). I'm going to try and put together a simple kit, thanks for the inspiration
I love swiss army knives /multitools got my first one at 9 but I love ur reviews
Jake! Youre an animal man, 1500 views in a month!! Sweet!! Dude 1 million is on the horizon keep it up!!
Tim B haha thanks, I appreciate it bro! I’m working on more as we speak & having a lot of fun in the process
Not to shabby!
Very helpful. Thank you.
You're welcome!
I like the knife
Loved, pretty good
Exelente kit.
Suggestion, you could tape a flat razor in the top next to the striker. By the way, good idea with the striker.
Vinegar is better than peroxide, trick birthday candles are better than what you put in there. Also smaller hooks can catch small and large fish, a big hook will only catch big fish thus narrowing your chances of food.
Your water filled straw can also be used as a leveling device 😊👍⚖️
GREAT !!!!!
A friend of mine has a couple of beef bouillon and a couple of chicken bouillon cubes in his tin as well.
Gotta have some flavor!
A whistle.
Here is some advices: water purification tablets, small water bag, wire saw, button compass, whistle, slingshot rubber band so you can create a slingshot with an Y shape stick, some 8mm steel balls for slingshot ammo, credit card size Fresnel lens that fit perfectly inside the altoids tin so you can make fire from sun light, tiny survival card.

Is it ok if I keep a folded cheque in my Altoids tin ?
Bank will accept it right ?
Good kit. Might be a good idea to add a few iodine water purification tablets. Their usually fairly small, so they should easily fit

You should add a small flint and steel
Duct tape some extra hooks and small sinkers under the lid.
Thank you for sharing your Altoids tin with us, nice job. I have seen quite a few of these tins on CZcams and quite a few of them put a nail in the tin. Can I ask what purpose the nail serves as you have nothing to hammer the nail with, does it have another use that I'm not aware of?

Did you wrap the electric tape around the nail yourself? How did you get it so compact?

❤❤❤
How about a fresel lens?
I would wrap the tin with electrical tape to keep it dry in event of water.
Hydrogen Peroxide makes healing difficult. I suggest replacing it with Iodine Tincture (Povidine).
This blue yellow glue work with saliva or only with pure, distilled water, you use H2O its means chemically pure water, not just water from bottel, pipe or from Shreck swamp.
where did you get little pill bag?
I think they were in the craft section or the bead section of Walmart
11:20
Bright green may just look like grass, try something reflective or purple/pink
Where did you get that signal mirror?
I think it was from my girl’s makeup thingy lol
I would label the meds you know what they are but others might not.

Just put a piece of electrical tape over the blade. Or buy the ones that have a cardboard covering
Robert Witt The more I think about it that blade is more of a risk then it is a help I definitely should’ve covered it up with something

Check out Altered Platform pocket survivel Tin on Ebay
If you put iodine instead of hydrogen peroxide, that doubles as a water purifier.
