What's up everybody, welcome back to my laboratory-
-Where safety is number one priority.
And today
we're going to build
a primitive winch
Out of two sticks and a rope
Let's see what we're going to do
I just need pretty thick size of a stick
So I'm just gonna prepare it
There you go. Some like that. This size
We'll need two of them
Once again guys quickly shout out to this folding saw
I already put that to the test on my second channel
But these things are amazing
Instead of bringing a giant heavy chainsaw with yourself
Grab on of these if you only need to cut off
Like logs like that
It will do it really fast and effortless
Now I'm going into the forest to put it to the test. This primitive winch, real quick
You see if I let go it goes up
I let go it goes up
So that way I relax my hand on it
And it a counterbalance
And that way I don't have to worry about holding this wood as much
It's just sitting on my shoulder
So that's not bad
I'm gonna try to pull this giant log up the mountain
Grab it like that
Boom
Go around one more time
Boom
Then
Go over this way
Then I'm just gonna
Wrap it around it
Three times
It's not going anywhere
Boom. Now you see the rope it not gonna come out anywhere
Next I'm gonna get the rest of the rope
And find a good tree
And wrap it around the tree
Okay. That should be enough
And now the fun part. We're gonna get one of this
And stick it into the dirt
And then the other one wrap it around like this
Boom
Probably do it a little bit lower so that way
We can actually
Go down this way. And then we're going to twist it
Boom
That's what we want
Step over it
And that way we're twisting it
Nice
That way you get a lot of leverage
To pull this rope
I think this tree is just too heavy. So
I have to test
This experiment with something else
This time I'm actually going to try to winch up this giant rock
It's really really heavy. I cannot lift it
So I got the rope
Lining across the tree right there
Once again we're going to make a little hole in the ground
So it's kinda stable over here
Then we are going to grab this stick
Push it this way
And then twist it, but at the same time
We need to put it over this rope
So like this
Boom
Don't wanna lift it too high because you have to jump
All this rope, so I'm gonna put it lower
And then we're going to
go like this. And you see now
I got myself leverage
You see how I'm keeping it low
This is supposed to stretch out for a while at first
And let's see what happens to the rock
Oh yeah
The rock is moving that's for sure
Okay let's see what happens
By the way
I'm pulling it up the hill,
so it's definitely a lot harder.
I can't even tell. Is it pulling? Yeah it does
For some reason I had picked out two heavy things
Push uphill
You know what downhill would be a lot easier to winch it up
You could use this trick also if you got stuck in mud in your car
And you don't have a winch
You can just go out and get couple sticks
Make sure you have heavy duty rope
In you car, and that way you can winch your car out of the ditch or out of the mud
Just make sure you have a second
Person to tap the brake so that your car doesn't roll down
On you or something like that
