I really appreciate it when they give the quicker option for using equipment, or a slower option if you don't have like a hacksaw or drill press. I think DiyPerks does that?

Or I just watch the YouTube channel 'Primitive Technology' .... of some young guy that goes into a jungle with nothing and starts building things with his bare hands.

I know it's a set up situation and made for entertainment but I'm indigenous Canadian and my dad was a hunter trapper who was born in the wilderness in northern Ontario. In his prime in his 20s, I have lots of relatives who told me that dad would leave the community with a little pack, a knife and an axe in the autumn and come back after Christmas with a supply of furs to sell. Then head off and come back two or three times in the winter to deliver more furs. Then come back in the spring to live in town before going out again in the fall.
