BUILT TO FLOAT | Primitive Boat Made from Hazel and Hide

Before fibreglass and rivets, there were hazel rods and animal hide. In this full-length build, Will Lord constructs a Stone-Age-style coracle - a lightweight boat made entirely by hand using hazel wood, water buffalo hide, and natural cordage. This isn't a reenactment. It's a return to the skills that once carried our ancestors across rivers and through time. Watch as Will: 🌿 Bends hazel into a flexible boat frame 🪢 Stretches water buffalo hide over the form and lashes it with cordage 🔥 Seals the seams with ancient knowledge and patience 🌊 Sets off on the water - no nails, no glue, no modern tools 🔔 Subscribe for more wild builds, ancient crafts, and deep connection to the ways of our ancestors. #WillLord #PrimitiveSkills #CoracleBuild #HazelAndHide #StoneAgeBoat #SurvivalCraft #AncestralSkills #Bushcraft #NaturalBuilding #HandBuiltBoat If you enjoy my videos here you would probably enjoy my other social media channels.   / will_lord_prehistoric_survival     / willlordprehistoricsurvival   or visit my website www.will-lord.co.uk where you can view the courses I offer and book up to come and have an experience with me.
