Born in Vermont, Zachary Fowler has always been a true outdoorsman. His parents were also natural adventurers who nurtured Zach's similar love for spontaneous challenges and travel. Throughout his childhood he was taken on numerous trips and excursions that would shape his everyday lust for nature. He struggled with school because of his dyslexia, but found a true enjoyment for learning through audio books and building anything he could. After some trial and error experimenting with what he was passionate about, He later moved to Maine after he graduated from high school. Zach worked at various boat yards on huge projects that would help sharpen and perfect his craft. While he was jumping from boat yard to boat yard he lived in an off the grid yurt where he lived mainly off his land. When he wasn't building these mammoth boats, he was hunting for books on anything that had more information about homesteading and using what you have to live. His natural urge for the outdoors and love for a challenge naturally lead him down the path of survivalist.
Fowler has been on the scene for quite a few years now teaching his nearly 850k YouTube subscribers how to survive and build as if their life depended on it. Quite literally. Zach is known for his adventurous survival-based channel with segments like 30 Day Survival Challenge and Trick Shot Tuesday's, where he teaches you to use a slingshot in different ways. You may have seen him on "Alone." A series that airs on the History Channel focused on survivalists competing for money. Zach actually won season 3 where he survived for 87 days in Patagonia!
We already knew Zach was well versed in the worlds of carpentry and survival. Why not add something else to the list? In his first video of 2021, he used the Muse Core 3D Fiber Laser to throw together a quick little tool that would help him on his next adventure. He made a fishing pole jig out of plywood that holds his fishing pole while he gets into more mischief.
