I'm just a swedish woman trying to learn the art of bushcraft and survival... As a biology / geography teacher I go from theory to practice - and it isn't always as easy as you might think ;)

I'm glad that you have kept your channel as it is and not become a commercial review channel. You are very refreshing, love your work.

Awesome demonstration. No one else is doing bushcraft with your originality and entertaining commentary. Cheers!

Love the new changes Emelie, keep learning and sharing with us.

Interesting fun fact about resin from Australian Grass Trees (Xanthorhea). Before World War 1 Australia used to export large quantities of resin from Grass Trees to Germany. One day someone had the bright idea to ask what the Germans were doing with all this resin. Making explosives, the answer came back. Needless to say Australia stopped all exports of resin.

Thank you Emelie:-) It's so nice to see another woman who's interested in bushcraft & the outdoors😊Great video!

Great to have you back! I like the changes you've made. You're looking very well!

Finally! I've been searching for videos on refining resin, and all i can find is super crude refinement techniques.. For some reason your video doesn't come up when I search for pitch or resin + refine or purify.. Ty for providing what seems to be the only video on youtube explaining proper pitch refinement!

I wasn't aware of this method of refining pine resin. I'll be giving it a try sometime.Thanks for posting the video. :)
-
That looked like a fun project. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Your outdoor cooking skills have taken a very creative route 😂😂. Great video, Emelie, with your usual injection of fun 😀😀

Happy to see you still using the Mora Eldris. I have decided that it will be my grandsons first camping knife. I plan on buying a couple for when the other kids are ready in case they discontinue the line. Keep learning and sharing.

It looks like you had a lot of fun doing that. The problem with using water is that you lose some of the volatile oils from the resin. Yes, using water is safer and not likely to get a flash fire in your resin. Try putting your pans in the freezer and then you should be able to flake the frozen resin off your pans, for cleaning. Last year I collected a bunch of resin and cleaned it. I only bought 1 piece of equipment from the store. It was a very fine mesh, screen strainer and I used 2 large soup cans and some pliers. I put all the resin in one can and warmed it until the resin was liquid, then I poured it through the mesh strainer into the second can. When I was done I had about 1/2 liter of cleaned resin. The next time I heat resin and clean it, I will heat the strainer again so the resin will flow through. I saved the first soup can for the next melt, no clean up of pots and pans! ;)

Thanks Emelie for that method, I am looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

That was cool. Good to see you out in the woods again in early springtime. Resin is such a useful gift of nature. It will be interesting to see what uses you come up with. As always, we'll be looking forward to your next adventure. Cheers.
