In an extreme situation, it is very important not to panic and keep calm, think prudently, calmly. Getting lost in the forest, one of the first tasks facing the survivor is to find a source of fresh water and save it, otherwise dehydration will begin on the second day. If you do not find water in this period, it may all end in failure. It is also necessary to make a vessel for carrying and storing water.
And so consider what the author needed for the manufacture of the vessel.

1) linden tree
2) linden bark
3) sticks
4) rope

Instruments

2) stone chopped


And since it has already been said above, having gotten into an extreme situation, for example getting lost in the forest, it is necessary to solve the issue of extraction and preservation of drinking water. According to the author’s advice, sources of water should be sought in lowlands and ravines, if in the yard spring you can get birch or maple juice, the main thing is not to drink water from old puddles in any case. You can also collect rainwater if it suddenly rains.

It’s clear with water :) Now, how and what to contain this most precious drink if you don’t have absolutely no dishes with you, and only a knife from the tool, or nothing at all.

For this purpose, you need to use the old grandfather's method, you need to find a linden tree, remove a piece of bark from it, clean the top with a knife. Then bend in half and divide again, only the most necessary part of the cortex will remain from which the vessel will be made. Having bent in half the obtained material, the author fastens 2 sticks on the sides by pulling them together with a rope, thereby fastening the side seams of the vessel.

So the first part is removed the upper part of the cortex.

Then the author takes directly the very piece of bark that he needs.

That's how it looks in section.

Bark is well removed from linden, especially during spring sap flow.

The bark is quite flexible.

This is how it looks before processing.

The author decided to demonstrate the most extreme way of making a container using a stone chopper, which was found nearby.

The master bends the resulting workpiece in 2 equal parts.

And a stone tool begins to remove excess.

He does everything slowly and measuredly.

Little by little palms chopped.

And the upper part of the cortex is gradually moving away.

Finally removes.

On the other hand, the same thing.

The main part is completed.

Then, using sticks, it connects the side seams of the vessel.

In this way.

The sticks are pulled together with a rope.

For ease of carrying, the author attached just such a handle made of rope.

This is a bucket of linden bark obtained by the master, with which he is extremely pleased. once again, the author reminds you not to panic in an extreme situation, keep calm, this will save strength.

This concludes the tale, I hope you enjoyed it :) Thank you for your attention! Come visit more often, do not miss the latest in the world of homemade products.
