What's going on guys black Scout survival and today I'm going to show you how to make a five dollar shelter survival shelter or bug-out shelter kit and all you need is just a few items you can put in a bag just like this you know that way is all contained but you're going to need duct tape an emergency blanket you can use the cheap mylar.

Paracord and a trash can 55-gallon drum liner with these you know if you you know really cheap items you can make a very good shelter that will you know keep you warm and dry in a multitude of different you know situations so let me put it together so the next thing is just going to open up your bag and find the bottom of it and so this is the.

Bottom there and the open end is here so what I'm going to need to do and this don't have to be pretty so I can fold it in half I'm just going to take I got some my Leatherman multi-tool trauma shears here but you can use your knife and just cut this bottom portion off and it doesn't have to be pretty like I said it I didn't have to be even just close.

To even as possible and by doing this you're essentially going to be making a tube tent now that you cut that hole you now have a tube tent like I say just run your pure cord through and you know have it rigged through the tree already and this is pretty much you're going to make your ridge line for this shelter okay now I.

Have rigged this up through the tube you know the trash can we made into a tube shelter I put our trucker's hitch on this side and just a bowline bowline on this side and I'm going to be done showing how to tie both those nuts the next thing you're going to do just kind of situate it where you want it at then take your duct tape and it's a.

Single side duct tape here I mean not single side but stuck to a piece of paper so it's a flat pack they call it and what we're going to do with that is you're just going to tape up the top of this edge here to the line that way it stays in place and you're just going to kind of run your finger across the top to make sure when you pair this across.

The top so you make sure that in it's very on the line so now it's not going to move there so now we have the shelter all put together I just basically grin paracord through the inside of the shelter and then I use tape like I did up here to keep it out and I've used stakes you don't have to use States you can make your own in the field but.

Anyhow I'm going to get in the shelter and show you but you see there's a little bit of room underneath it it has a lot of room so basically that's for is to put debris under the shelter so you're not sleeping directly on the ground it will give you insulation you definitely want that in a cold weather environment so just pack as much debris.

Make sure it's no sticks or anything like that but just like leaves and and pine straw and stuff like that underneath there and give you about you know good four to six inches thick so that's why this is up that high because it's going to be pretty thick so also if it is raining or something like that you'll notice I put it at an angle.

So the head is higher than the feet you can tape with that duct tape the whole front end closed so you still have ventilation out here so you're not going to suffocate yourself but you can keep it pretty much waterproof as well or keep the bag you know together seal it up and just run the line through it make a hole and just take that hole up for.

Waterproofness now also another thing that you can do is take the mercy blanket and wrap inside this top guideline here this ridge line and drape it through there so you have a complete waterproof windproof shelter and also have that ninety percent reflectivity of the mercy blanket but I'm gonna go ahead and get in here.

And now I'm just gonna go ahead and open up this mercy blanket and show you just how easy it is to wrap this inside of it now you want to have the hold the doorways open because of the insulated you know I mean the condensation building in here they'll give it a breeze so you don't get wet so now you see we've got the reflective.

Mylar on one side reflecting that heat that's going to keep us warm so guys that was the $5 bug-out or survival shelter and you know survival shelter should be small and you know a easily carried with you this one you know depending on what bag to use and stuff like that you can actually wrap it down small enough to put in your back pocket.

So the thing is is that if you also get a fire out here it will kind of simulate the old Morse Kohan ski super shelter because this side is you know open or and doesn't have the blanket on so if let out that other side and you know keep you warm like that reflect that heat to you and you know really bring the temperature up this thing was so hot.

Just few minutes gone pouring sweat now so you know definitely for very cold environments but nonetheless it's uh hopefully this is a tool that can help you please check us out on blasts got super calm make sure you subscribe to our channel we put out a few new videos every week and as always thanks for watching.
