Just a couple helpful tips from someone that fitted pipe for a couple of decades; 1) use a PVC glue primer before gluing together. The primer allows for a better bond between your 2 pieces. 2) beveling the outer edge of the end of the pipe isn’t required, but it makes joining together so much easier. 3) if you’re putting anything that can rust inside you will definitely want to put some desiccant inside to absorb moisture from the air that you sealed inside with it.

Those are great ideas but remember that the air that is in the pipe as you close cache will turn into moisture after you bury it. You need to include Silica gel or other type of desiccant absorbent material into the tube with your item to soak up the moisture caused by the trapped air. Maybe even rap your fire arm in an oily cloth then rap it in wax paper to keep it from rusting and to keep the oil from getting onto other things in the cache. Electronics and ammo also need desiccant absorbent material to keep moisture from getting to them. Food products, even can products can rust or mold because of the air in the tube. You can also use melted wax around the sealed cannister seams to keep moisture out. Bury cache below frost line if possible for less moisture. Great video over all.

I agree with a few others here. When you glued on the cap, you should have twisted it at least 1/4 turn. This spreads the glue without leaving straight lines of hardened glue which would allow water to seep down these grooves into the container. Been there. Done that. If water can, it will.

Hello from Oklahoma! Good Video! Back in 1985 I took a trip up to Montana for an archery elk hunt. I took a piece of 6 inch pvc and made a container to hold my bow, A browning takedown 55lb. pull recurve, 12 arrows, spare bow string and my finger tabs. Still got all that stuff, still use it. Thanks for the video and jarring loose some memories! God Bless!

I'd toss some silica gel packets for moisture control or a camphor block as a corssion inhibiter.

I love when the rim meets the lip. Perfection.

[hiltonfritsch]

Loved the fact that you're using last week's mallet to seat it home. LOL

With so many sites just being anything but survival you are the only real guy, thanks Sean !!!

An oldie but a goodie! 35 years ago I had a cache just like your large one in the woods behind the house, 35 paces due East of the NE corner of the house. Sold the place 25 years ago, I've wondered if the new owner ever found it, as it was under a rock (like you did) and it might be something someone who was there often might turn over. Emptied it except for a note before leaving the last day there.

Corporal AF, Shawn. The only thing I’d add is to be sure to add a dessicant to the contents of your cache before you seal it. That will help prevent rusting of the contents.

Great Video. Grew up with my Dad doing this at our hunting cabin. Only thing i would add, Is he always used a pair of my moms old nylon stockings to make up packets of rice. to absorb any moisture, Of course nowadays you can use disiccant packs

[earlshaner]

This is outstanding but go to the extra step and pack in ziplock bags and in the waterproof container

A good common sense use for a cache. Having some items stashed might save a trip back to get something you forgot

[robertosantinni]

For Cache camouflage, remember, many times less “litter” thrown around is better. Make it look natural. Thanks for this Cpl.

Just make sure you bury it with a pipe wrench pre-set to the size of the cap so you can open the cache right then and there

[peacefulwarrior]

Ues a silicone impregnated gun sock to store your weapons in prior to storing them in the tubes and if you put about 4 " of #6 stone in the hole it will give proper drainage for any water or accumulated moisture in that storage hole lessening that chance of possible sitting in constant moisture environment
Also using silicone dry packets in the tubes definitely helps too !
Most important thing
DONT FORGET WHERE YOU BURIED THEM 🤪😂
great outta sight outta mind storage ideas! 😎💪🤙

Land pirate booties. Nice. Could also do sunken floaties in pond or similar. Cheers.

[streakofluck]

Awesome. If you bury this vertical with the screw off lid just under the surface of the soil you can come and add to or take out what you need from the cache. Since it’s vertical small stuff drops to the bottom. If the tube is long and you cannot reach the bottom add add a drain grate and tie some bank line to it like a cradle you can drop the grate to the bottom first and Everything that sits on the bottom can now be retrieved by simply pulling up the grate and all the small items will be sitting in the grate. No need to dig up the whole pipe.

I was a plumber for 7 years. PVC needs a primer on the pipe and the fittings and glue on both as well. Spin the fittings when you put them on the pipe. That helps ensure that the glue is properly applied for a good seal. I always wipe around the fittings with my finger to make sure it’s sealed. Also I suggest using teflon tape then pipe dope. You teach us a lot so I wanted to give back. I’m not saying that you are wrong but I know plumbing and thought I could help you learn something since you do so much for us. Much love and respect
