    Water powered hammer for camping use

    This is a pretty handy way to use a nearby water stream to crack your own "nuts" while camping in the bush.
    Usually, we have to join the army commando unit to learn this kinda bush skills.
    Things have changed.
    Nowadays, you can learn to perform neurosurgery with the aid of youtube.

    Riiiiiight! All that effort into making something, to do something, that can be done by hand and much quicker. Unless I have missed the point of it all.

    I have often been sitting by a camp fire with a bag of Brazil Nuts and no hammer and wondering how can I open them, if only I had seen this before.

    Looks like the Industrial revolution is firing up in Papua New Guinea? Guy has a lot of time on his hands to invent stuff that has already been invented, all good and interesting I reckon

    Impressive individual. I agree Phil as i watched him it was clear he was not in a hurry and that was maybe a weeks work to make that setup. I have watched a few of his videos and enjoy them. I just read though that if you turn on the Closed Captions (CC) button in the bottom of the video he has put Subtitles into his vids explaining what he is doing and who.

    4.5million Subscribers and he has never said a word in any of his videos. Respect.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Yeah i did kind of wonder its purpose when he first set it up. given he worked out how to carve a bowl out of a softer rock you'd think he would have just gone to a Mortar and Pistel arrangement..... Kool Vid though!

    I personally love these videos. They seem to just mellow me out. They relax me while also holding me in deep concentration.

    It's interesting to see other ways of doing things, compare it to how far we've come now. Also he could be handy armageddon type stuff.

    There may be a hint of sarcasm creeping in! Keep up the good work!

    The only real use I can see for the water driven hammer in this day and age, is to annoy the absolute %^()0 out of some bastard who is running a generator.
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
