  • I bought Hawk boot laces from Boot Barn and used them to tie a Teton Sports sleeping bag to an Oakley Backpack. I used a Therma-Rest sleeping pad for demonstration.

    I keep mine on a compression bag and attatch it to my pack with custom made webbing straps that allow me to cinch it down tight wherever I need it on my pack, same with my tent. Alternately, I use a US Army 3 day pack for my sleeping bag, tent and tarps and attatch that to my pack using custom made webbing straps

    If one wanted to elevate heavy load, is there a better way than a trucker's hitch and leading the end through more loops once they get close enough?

    Hi,
    I love to see how many smart ways you find to use the rope! Its really amazing! Its so satisfying to watch it :)
    I have a question: Do you know ho to tight and fix the wooden frame while glueing it?
    There are special holders, but i think it could be possible to use a rope here, but needs to find a way evenly distribute pressure around the frame and have some mechanism to increase tension after all 4 corners are set to 90 degrees.
    Thanks in advance!

    I'd use a larks head in the middle and feed one end through it going left, the other end going right, then tighten it👍

    Hi FCA! I have a Maxpedition-style backpack that I'd like to use as a camera bag. It has two external zip pockets on the both covered in MOLLE webbing. I'd like to strap my tripod to the bag centrally for best weight distribution, preferably vertically. The MOLLE is of course oriented the other way. Can you come up with a system that would hold the tripod tight to the bag, while remaining relatively easy to un- and retie, even with gloves on?

    Any ideas for using 550 paracord for loosening something like a stainless steel Igloo style 25-30oz watter bottle? I can't remember the exact model my parents use (may not even be Igloo), but often times, they'll come home to the cap being really tight somehow and they have to use a large wrench to unscrew it because it doesn't have a friendly handle for this scenario.
    They only store water or tea (both cold) in it, so I don't think it's related to the contents creating a sticky grip on the seal. The seal is metal and shouldn't be getting hot enough to worry about thermal expansion.
    I've tried using a constrictor hitch around the lid and even while pulling both sides, it still ends up slipping around the smooth lid. I don't think the lid has enough surface area to use a double constrictor hitch without slipping up to the nozzle and TERRIBLY thin handle (which is also bent due to my mom's grip in getting a tight lid off).

    I've got this little fan at the corner of my room and it would be super clutch if you knew an easy knot for me to tie an ice pack on the back of my fan so that i can have a makeshift AC

    • @KayakingVince
      @KayakingVince Рік тому

      This sounds like an electrical hazard as ice packs can drip when defrosting. Best to keep a gap between them.
      I do this by freezing a 2 litre bottle that is mostly full of water (leave an air gap for expansion) then stand it in a bowl either behind or in front of the fan.

      @@KayakingVince that was almost clever. I carry my sleeping bag in my bag, at the bottom, where most do. Why would you ever carry it outside of your bag? That's where it would be exposed to the elements. I don't even carry my sleeping mattress outside of my bag, because it fits in my bag too. My bag is only 40L. Good enough for a week and indefinitely if I can resupply food. All my gear, food, tent, etc. fits inside. Only thing outside is my rain gear, water filter, and poop kit ( spade, sh$t tickets and sanitizer, in a water proof bag).
