The mischievous giggle when the log broke got me. 😂

That chuckle of pure satisfaction as that juniper log finally broke... so good!

only the OG's remembers when Chad used to not speak in his videos, but i'm still glad theres narrations for people to understand it further

Thank you for another wonderful video. That's too bad about the pemmican. I'm sure the critter who got it was quite pleased. I've started a three sisters garden this year because of your videos, and I'm collecting and storing chanterelles. Can't wait for the next video!

Thank you for posting the best videos on KZfaq!! I could watch them all day!!!! They are perfect. 🙏🙏

I missed the Primal Tendencies series. Thanks Chad. It is a good episode.

I really enter a state of contemplation and psychological comfort when I watch Chad Zuber’s channel . It’s very entertaining thanks Chad for your time , efforts and dedication 🙏

what a lovely place, I love the desert!!!

Best channel ever! No bullshit just real adventure and living. Thx and I got earth runners because of you.

Amazing video! You really highlighted the challenge of storing food in the primitive world and protecting it from wild creatures and the elements. Using rocks as a means to protect food is a smart and innovative idea. Thank you for sharing these valuable and useful survival techniques, as they open our eyes to creativity in facing nature!

...Also, I just realized this is the inevitable "recap episode" that so many popular shows have...and we've already seen Chad do more than one "beach episode," too! This channel has *everything!* XDDDD

Чад, молодец 👍 твои видео 🔥 первый раз вижу как нужно работать с глиной ❤ посуда прекрасна ❤

Great video! Thanks

I like that series. Regards from Poland

Hey there Chad! Watching you make pottery in your hut while it was as hailing outside, was so cozy. The finished piece was amazing and pleasing to the eye.

If the environmental conditions are right, food can be stored for a very long time. Hopefully, for the next time you make pemmican, you can get some caul fat. Pemmican is the ultimate survival food. This was awesome. Cheers, Chad! ✌️

Чад,как же я соскучился.Чем больше тебя смотрю тем больше хочется.

Down to Earth 🌎❤❤

It's truly amazing to see how much you've managed to build up from practically nothing. Kinda makes me want to visit the old episodes again where you had just started out setting-up the current hut. Have to say, I never would have thought I'd be so excited about seeing new bricks being made. Good times.

Great survival skills I like it that you’re learned enough pretty quick after all these years

I think for the next storage pot, you could put a small burning ember in the pot(maybe covered with another clay cover with holes in it) to act as a oxygen absorber right before you seal it. It should extinguish itself once it's sealed and that should take care of in case some pests stowaway. Big fan, live your vids!

If you made an elongated trough-like bowl for melting the glue, you could roll/rotale the lid easily in the trough to apply the glue top and bottom to the lid.

I love this

Bạn rất có kỹ năng sinh tồn một mình ngoài thiên nhiên ,rồi xa văn hóa hiện đại mà vẫn rất ổn ❤️👍.

Sua cerâmica é muito boa parabéns

You are living my dream! I wish i could do this in the uk

*GREAT CONTENT!*

You should try adding an inner ring to the lid that’s the size of the inside of the opening. And to make the lid and opening lip as flat and smooth as possible

The feeling of significantly progressing indoors even though it heavily rains while most creatures around freeze in silence waiting for the rain to stop is remarkable, not to mention the light, sound, smell and warmth of the fire while pottery making!

I rarely post comments on KZfaq…your videos are very informative,interesting and amazingly relaxing…I can meditate while watching your videos. Thank you for this beautiful moment.

Who's watching and lying on bed!😁🛌💞💎

Lovely video and great at showing problems with long term storage. I wonder if a more lipped storage pot would make the glueing process easier. Thanks for your time and work as always.

For those who don't know the benefit of polishing, or "burnishing," a mostly-dry unfired clay pot, what happens is that certain small sizes of fragments of clay, which look like little hexagonal plates, get aligned so that they lie flat along the surface when it is burnished. This aligning requires some effort when the clay is a normal mixed aggregate, like what Chad is using. But when you know how to make *terra sigillata* which is that reddish glaze-like stuff the ancient Romans used, it basically speeds up the process, and you can burnish the surface--which is almost entirely coated in those fine little plates--with just a light touch from your fingers, rather than needing a polished rock or bone, a lot of effort, and a lot of time. Terra sig (nickname) is made by suspending those tiny particles of clay in water, usually by using a bit of alkaline substance, such as lye water or ashwater. You mix up the clay-rich material, let it settle until it forms 3 layers in the liquid, then you remove the clear water at the top, and pour the cloudy middle stuff into a fresh pot. Just don't allow any of the grittier stuff from the bottom third layer to join it. Then, when the suspension is thickened enough (evaporation helps, also simmering), you can dip your dry greenware (unfired) pottery into it or apply it with a brush in a very thin coat. This is similar to dipping a pot in slip (soup-thin clay goop), but you've pre-separated out the specific sizes that work best with burnishing. (By the way, you can also burnish dry greenware, but it's much easier at the leather-hard stage because there's enough give that the particles align much more easily; at the hard-dried stage, it's more like you're grinding away the non-smooth-plate bits as much as you are realigning them.) It needs to be understood that burnishing is *not* the same thing as glazing. It does provide a smoother and less likely to leak surface. However, there will still be microscopic holes that liquids can seep through. Low-fired pottery (primitive firing, earthenware, etc, the stuff that benefits the most from burnishing), only sinters. "Sintering" means it binds together, but still has tiny holes and channels between the pieces. It does not vitrify, which means to turn glass-like and seal up all the microscopic holes. (High-five clay bodies, such as stoneware and porcelain, can vitrify after the second firing, but you need high kiln temperatures, and the pottery must first be tempered by going through an initial firing, or bisqueware firing, which is what earthenware primitive firing goes through.) Glazes don't necessarily need extremely high temperatures. They genuinely help seal pottery against moisture leakage, but you need to have access to certain things, such as powdered silica, or salt for salt-glazing (and high enough temperatures and a kiln). It's harder to do a glaze firing in a primitive firing setting. Burnishing is a good single-firing compromise, even if it's not a perfect seal. However, you can also take burnished pottery and boil things like milk in it, which will fill up the microscopic holes in the pottery with casein proteins, whcih can then be charred in a slightly hotter fire to set them permanently in place, sort of like "seasoning" a cast iron pan. Terra sig speeds up the burnishing process. Even just using slip (a really fine clay that's made into a liquidy paste) can help. And burnishing the surface can create really good moisture barriers. They aren't quite as good as a (non-crazed or crackled) glaze, nor as good as vitrifying temperatures...but the latter require very specific types of clay, rather than just common earthenware types. Regardless, what Chad is doing with his earthenware clay, rock-burnishing the clay at the leather-hard stage, will go quite a long ways toward preventing spoilage in whatever he seals into that pot. I don't know when burnishing was first invented, but it was genuinely a major innovation in early storage ceramics.

It was necessary to level the neck of the pot and the bottom of the lid with a rough stone, then everything would be airtight.

This is awesome. The pemmican you made the previous video made me open up some of my vacuum sealed pemmican I had made 2 years ago. It is still edible and delicious as ever. I put dried shallots and salt in mine. Dehydrated top side steak and mixed it with beef fat. It really is one of the nicest foods out there and the rush of energy you get 5 minutes after eating it is like some powerful drug.

Great video and teachings, Chad, you are a master of survival, all the food is very healthy, thank you for sharing a lot of success.¡¡¡¡¡

Making mistakes only galvanizes your determination to never make them again.

Nice to see you back at the hut! Looks like it is holding up well.

Pottery is one of my favorite contents by Chad

I'm storing all my food under a rock this winter. No one looks which rock I stuff everything under because I'll know!

9:06 ancient drums!

Que interesante experimento,veremos que pasa,siempre es grato y relajante ver tus vídeos amigo,gracias🙌💪🔥🔥

Chỗ ở huyền thoại, thức ăn thì tuyệt vời, chad bạn thật sự rất giỏi trong việc sinh tồn ❤🎉🎉

Your innovative approach to primitive food storage under a rock is truly inspiring! It's fascinating to see ancient techniques in action and to wonder if they will withstand the test of time. Và Tôi Là Floating Village Life

i love this content creator,very real video,watching from philippines

Chad is back 🙏

love your videos

AR: ليتك لم تضع التمر البري في الوعاء أخشى الثمار تحتوى على كمية من الماء وهذا قد يفسد كل شيء. على كل حال أنت تقوم بعمل رائع العادة يا تشاد نتابعك من سوريا ..كل التوفيق لك 🌷👍 EN: I wish you hadn't put the wild dates in a container. I'm afraid the fruits contain a certain amount of water and this might spoil everything. Anyway, you're doing a great job as usual, Chad Following you from Syria.. All the best to you 🌷👍

Um verdadeiro homem faz o seu próprio lugar deixa um paraíso ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great job tarzan and its akways important to have food stored for the winter incase of an emergency

hahaha at 5:12 i totally feel that satisfactory "hahah!"

It will be interesting to see how that fared in that place in the Winter. That Cacao hmmm, Chocolate perhaps? Perhaps Montezuma's Chocolate Drink mix? I still wonder if the floor of the hut will be one day covered in clay tiles. As well as the roof. I dunno, but it is always interesting to watch Mr. Zuber here. Great Video!

Man, I envy your life. Seems so peaceful.

take yucca fiber and dip it in the sap charcoal mix and put it on as a rope seal around the lid

Muito interessante esse modo de armazenamento de alimentos. Muito obrigada! Brasília/Brasil

Nice video chad zuber next longer video 🤙🎷

17:18 maybe a pot with a bigger lip (as in, upward) would be easier to seal with pine glue?

Great video, beautiful nature. I am looking forward to the test result. Greet from Slovakia 😀🖖👍

Một video hay quá bạn xem rất thú vị

Never leave KZfaq❤

😮 Excelente 👌

Yo amó éstos vídeos 🌎🍄☘️🪶 un mundo 🌎 mágico 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

Como siempre, genial maestro, sembrando conciencia y haciéndonos presentes de que vivimos en abundancia porque sé la humanidad abrió un camino y si así fue, no nos destruiremos porque queda humanos consientes, que seguiremos creando caminos. Gracias, Chad. 🤠Tabona

🩷✨️video 🩷significativo para nossa realidade. Gostei demais. Abracos querido CHAD❤🇧🇷

Bro I aways be waiting for a video! This video is awesome

Amazing Allahumma sholli wa sallim wa baarikh ala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa'ala ali Sayyidina Muhammadin fil awwalin wal aakhirin wa fil mala'il a'laa ilaa Yaumiddin

Chad you have showed us how to do all these amazing things and I actually do some of them I’m interested in what state this is so I can live there

That rock 🪨 gave me anxiety not gonna lie lmao looks like it could roll

20:45 if this place stay dry all the year long you can make big natural fridge with mud bricks. And also you can use two non fired dry clay bowls and seal it with clay or leaves after seal fully dry you can store it. Dry hay between pots in fridge can be added to. I think these things are worth to try. I got this idea from ancient grapes preservation technique.

Thank you from northeast Arizona. Helping me add skills to my quiver. Also liked the vids you did with potter Andy Woods.

I get my first pair of sandals, some earth runner’s!

I love that kind of dishes. Is it very good for health to cook in this kind of dishes from the mat? That is the best thing I wish I have one of that ha ha ha ha

Muito bom seus vídeos e aventuras parabéns

Hi Chad I enjoying watching your videos but I wonder if you don’t have the desire to go to the city and eat regular meals. Is not too hard for you to live in those conditions ? and have to work really hard to make those little things to eat and create your own pots . I admire your passion and patience to do everything. Your lifestyle is very unique . 👌👌👏👏

This is a cool experiment 👍😆 I loved the time lapse, awesome editing 😄 thanks so much for your hard work it makes these videos a high point of the week and inspires ideas too. It's winter here in southern New Zealand 🥶 and my darn fire went out, I'd run out of kindling because I had too restart the fire from coals late last night and it's soaking and freezing outside and while watching you break juniper branches it sparked an idea how I could restart the fire without having too get miserable in the process by using a piece of macrocarpa and my Chisel 😂 it worked 😂 fires lit and roaring 👍

Greetings Chad your videos are awesome... I enjoy them so much the level of your primitive skills is fantastic...

I would have stacked some heavy rocks around the pot. Critters could paw at it and knock it over/down & break it open.

Hi chad. I am sending you another hug.

YAYYYYY 🎉🎉😊😊

Chad, As someone who likes to make my own cordage alot i need to ask if you've ever heard of a turkish drop spinner. Ive recently discovered, after making one to spin a shed sheep fleece i found into yarn, that it also works for making plyed cordage. If on the off chance you havent heard of or looked into them i would highly recommend doing so as it reduces cordage making time and effort massively.

Have you considered making the hammock a bit larger? It doesn’t seem that big or very comfortable, and if you’re going to be sleeping on it then it should roughly cover the waist a go a bit around it as well. Also do you use any pillows or anything for neck support and comfort? Btw love your videos, huge fan of your content. My fav video was you making that mollusks and veg soup from a few years back.

I know where that rock is!!! Might find a mountain man came and got it for the acorn pancakes!!!! Lol. Great video! Shame about the pemmican, sound like there’s a fat critter roaming round. Might be time for some fall traps lol.

Buen video!

Jeu bro ! Wonderfull pot . So i recently reserching about " adiabatic "natural système air cooling , i just share this idea to you , for the potentialy future needed in your Primal tendenties. You an expert cooking, terra cotta !

Achei ótimo esse vídeo, continue assim

You also need to store sources of protein for keeping those muscle gains. 💪

You could use antlers or your rib bones to move the pottery or hot stones. It makes me nervous watching you move the pottery with sticks

Lol those raccoons!

Usa uma pedra pontiaguda para rachar a madeira, tipo picareta e outra como martelo

Dried fruit usually lasts a long time, and the less moisture and more sugar it has, the longer. The palm fruit might even last a year, if stored properly. I also have a question, have you ever tried to make primitive wine out of any desert fruit, like the manzanita or palm? I can't remember seeing it in any of your past videos, and having a backup source of hydration in case the river or springs nearby dry up could be handy.

Will you ever try to make copper tools or iron soon? I really like your videos

Hi Chad, Thanks a lot for your videos and work you are applying to film all your discoveries. Can you please tell us, why you don't try to create a primitive fridge ? For example, a hole in the terrain where the temperature doesn't change so fast, or any additional ideas on the long storing food methods. Once again, thanks for all your success and failures, keep pushing the limits💪

❤

Dont know if theres any in the desert where youre at, but garlic and cayenne pepper are great animal deterrents. Garlic works exceptionally well against insects. It could be quite possible to "season" your pottery with these.

pemmican bandits! Such a relaxing video. How do you get the pine sap off your skin? I cut down pine trees and had it on me for days. Pretty cool experiment, great content as always. I pm'd you a plant of the week idea with pics.

After you do your daily survival chores typically how many hours do you have to yourself?

Im from Indonesian like your vidio❤

MANTAP 😎👍

Hi Chad! What do you think about walking barefoot? Is it important for health or is it better to keep your feet protected?
