    Hmm. Should have labeled it Setting Up a Viking Tent. I would have liked to see how the frame was constructed and pinned together. More detail on the tie-off, plus a camera walk around and inside view. Details on the canvas construction. Didn't see how he used the tent pegs.
    It would have been nice to see a full setup of the interior as well.
    Interesting design.

    Please pay no attention to the haters who have likely never been out of the city, let alone put up a tent before. :)
    It may have taken a while to put that thing up, but it was done by one person, and a second person would have likely cut the time WAY down. I've used modern tents that you couldn't put up with only one person, and some that were just so incredibly frustrating, they were tossed in the dumpster after their first use so I would never have to deal with them again.

  • @awapuhi
    @awapuhi 4 роки тому +1

    It's great but the only thing is during day and night any kind of bug, rat, possum, spider or snake can crawl easily underneath, the best way is using a longer canvas starting from the bottom ground over the 2x4s covering everything, like a circle loop around the wood frame, that way the floor is protected from crawlers.

  • @FredBrighton
    @FredBrighton 6 років тому +2

    My design was probably easier to erect and was a warmer tent... get rid of the "feet" on the verge poles so the frame sits closer to the ground...I use actual saplings for the ground poles, they roll easier... lay out the frame flat with the fabric on the frame, lift the verge poles a bit to set the ends on one side, then just walk the side up and slide the front and back ground boards onto the pole ends...the fabric should wrap around the verge poles, concealing all but the top, carved heads. You can have some ties down the front slit to fasten the tent closed. When the wind blows the tent gets sturdier... no "braces", ropes, just have the peak pole about one foot shorter than the ground poles.
