Using the plumbers vice in bushcraft


Last week I did a short video on how to use a folding saw, however, more often than not if you’re in the woods you won’t have a stump.  You might find a fallen tree that’ll act as a stable platform, but failing that you’ll need some other way to hold your materials to saw through them.  And so I’ve made this short video about using the plumbers vice in bushcraft.  It’s really simple so take a quick look and give it a go.

We look at using a folding saw, and specificaaly using the plumbers vice in bushcraft, on many of our courses, including the IOL Bushcraft Competency Certificate and  5 Day Bushcraft Course.

You can see lots of photos of participants here as well as on our Facebook page.
