Soon to come : Instructional Video’s

  • Author: DigitalMind
  • Filed under: Uncategorized
  • Date: Sep 16,2008

I’ve been wanting to do this for some time.  Today I will be buying a digital camcorder so that I can start making some instructional video’s instead of taking lots of pictures and describing it with text.  Although i’ve managed with only pictures until now, there are a few things I’ve been wanting to write about but need some video to go with it that I couldn’t do until now.

Some things to come : (I will put links once they’re done)

  • How to make an RJ-45 Network Plug  (by a professional cable guy)
  • How to start a fire with magnesium and flint
  • How to start a fire using only wood. (Friction fire using the bow method; I have never actually tried this)
  • How to make and use Charcloth to start a fire.
  • Setting up camp
  • A walkthrough of my “famous”  solar power installation in Kingston
  • Building an emergency snow cave for winter camping in the wild
  • How to put up a tarp for rain protection while camping

These are just the things i’ve been wanting to film for a while, there will be much more now that I have the option. (My digital camera CAN take video, but it doesn’t have a microphone which almost makes it pointless.)

There will be much more as I find the need.

Stay tuned for these interesting video’s, and feel free to leave a comment if you have any suggestions !

    I was interested in your references to winter camping skills. I would urge you to take a look at WinterCampers.com where we have provided a description of some of the skills you reference.

    thanks

    Thanks for the link Jim. It was very informative. I have bookmarked it and it will surely eventually be linked to on this site while writing an article on winter camping. In what area are you located ? I might be interested in joining you on a winter expedition at one point.
