This frameless taped together shelter uses 6 sheets of 1-1/2" thick foil backed foam board. Sets up in several minutes with 2 people. So strong you can even sit on top of it!
Paul, you're brilliant, & a man w/ a good heart. Don't let the jerks discourage you!
I just finished covering my hole dog's cage with foam board insulation, plastic core on the outside and gorilla tape to hold everything together. I learn a lot every time I see your designs!
this is good as well if you are camping in the wilderness specially if there will be snow it can protect you from snow
Fantastic design, love your solar lights in it !!
I love collapsible folding objects.
Just wishing to share that these rigid foam designs are brilliant and have broken the price barrier for alternative micro-homes, have great portability/compressibility, and geometric elegance. Amazing!
Hi Paul! Would love plans for this. Ridge foam board is very good insulation and this is a nice set up. I love your ideas
I had an idea for a similar design that used plywood sheets! This is much better as far as weight and climate control. Nice to see someone actually build what I only had a passing thought about.
I just loved the way you put it together. One big piece, folded or unfolded just right. Thanx
Great Idea, regardless of what people say. Great possibility for a portable ice fishing shanty. Thank You for sharing ! ATB
you're right, it'd be about ideal for an ice fishing shack!
Love it. The roof light option really adds to it. I liked your collapsing door also.
your imagination astounds me thank you for spreading your knowledge
Zip ties may hold it longer then Velcro extra flaps inside to seal out the bugs cold or heat.. Just thinking of less tape as it rots over time..I absolutely love this tipi design very inventive... They should be mass produced with your patent on this.. AWESOME!! Thank you for sharing what coraplast can do.
all the stuff you do with shelters they're so well thought-out. some of the shelters I think they could even be heated safely they would make such a good homeless shelter. light compatible movable cheap fairly tough some environment more than others. I really think somebody could change some people's life well done. this is for sure my favorite UA-cam vids. thanks can't wait to see what you come up with next.
You are absolutely a creative genius! I love your videos. My grandkids have had fun on the river with their coroplast boat I made looking at your videos. I'd love to have the plans to build this shelter.
Thanks again Paul!
Absolutely impressive concept! Both the simplicity in engineering and economic design, make it truly a winner...all the way
around. Your creativity I'm sure, will be rewarded with lots of orders from the viewing public!
this is brilliant, such an effective emergency solution for a range of of temporary situations.
Outta all of the shelters I've seen yours is by far one of the best ideas when it comes to repurposing construction materials . The only thing I can see that might be a problem would be the duct tape possibly peeling off , say if you had to use it for a month in foul weather / rain , and the air filter , that's a terrific idea but there again I would think after one good rain that filter would be history . But I'll tell you what , if I did find myself in need of a quick emergency shelter , I'd pick yours . Thanks for sharing your ideas .
You sir are a genius , id love to meet you and just hang out very wise man , I d love to live cheap , cozy , and warm but I can afford the realastate and what not but till I can ill keep watching your amazing videos thank you for all your videos
I have watched you build different designs from the moment I started watching youtube about 2 years ago now, and every single one of your builds and designs are amazing, do not stop!!! I'm sure if you are interested in helping humanity you could let your blueprints out for free or your measurements or you could even charge a few dollars for each sale in order to supplement your income to allow you to be able to continue designing these awesome things or make kits and sell the things for twice the cost plus oh ten dollars an hour for your time and you'd be making something out of it to continue and people with little money could still afford them...This is so cool. I thinks I'm going to build my nephews some of these particular ones!!
Excellent project Paul! You've given me some ideas on how to expand the footprint. Nice job!
Great shelter for some applications but not a homeless solution. You have some great creations and ideas!

With a raised floor and proper weather sealing I think it would be better than most tents in a calm sanctioned camp.
Paul Elkins Yes. Most definitely. It would certainly outlast a tent.
That's really a good idea for a temporary emergency shelter!
That is amazing! every homeiess person needs one of these brilliantly designed shelters! you need to mass produse these'you will be very rich in wealth and overflowingly rich in compassion.! thank you + God Bless !
Oh, my gosh. I would love, love to have plans for this.
I wonder if this could be combined with the poor man's fiberglass technique to make an indestructible yurt. Might even be able to get by with a cheaper foam board.
Excellent design!
You’re an authentically awesome individual.
Gracias Luciano.
Yes sir I am very motivated to start work on your plans for either the pyramid and the other structure is a great idea and I love to show my grandkids as a project this spring because we doing a lot of camping anyway so this would be great so if you can send me some information on how I can go about getting the plans I really would appreciate it outstanding presentation thank you
How fun, I often think of how I could have a camp out with my family on my own land. I love the thought of maybe having a bubble window so we could see out and around...
My husband and I are over 63 plus yrs old, BIG TALL people... This looks like a real fun project for my grandsons. Please tell us more how to make it.. Or can you direct us. We live in N. CA so the wether is not to bad most of the year. Thanks PrepperDino
Love the idea for a "bubble" window.
Nicely done. Cheap, lightweight and fast
Very nicely done Paul. Def good for a variety of applications. Many can benefit from this idea.
Even more people will benefit from Marx's and Lenin's ideas.
You. Are. A. Genius.
Could this also be made from the campaign signs for an even friendlier on the budget version?
Paul, the only thing that could possibly be done to improve this one would be to add some flanges to the top, so anchoring ropes/cables could be used if someone wanted/needed to use one of these shelters on a long-term basis.
But, a great design, none the less.
+Kevin S
Hey Kevin.To secure the structure I drilled a hole in each corner of the roof and ran lines from their to spikes in the ground. Worked great. A floor and window flanges would be needed for all weather use, and a coat of rubber membrane paint on the triangle roof. Maybe the whole thing? I might experiment some day.
+Paul Elkins Hello from Québec, Canada, excuse my bad english, i am french Canadian. You are making good opportunity for the homeless but no one on 85 comments is ready to have it on their land and give some hope to an homeless person. Is it illegal in USA to be a bit more human? Some person say: It will be great for my kids. Why not teaching them to be generous by having an homeless person who won't be bothered and secure on your land? That cost nothing and, may be, he can use your facilities??? 2 things are going together, heartless and homeless. No hearless mean No homeless. 3.5 millions homeless in USA, is it possible??? I simply can't see why. People enjoy their little life in their house with plenty of space on their land, basement, extra room,etc. One day they become homeless and they ask theirselves why?? LIFE always find a way to make you understand what you don't want to know. People are saying: Cop are brutal against the homeless, ok may be yes, but what people are doing to avoid that kind of situation???? Do you need my example to do something? Are you able to do some thing logic by yourself?? I am talking to people in general, not you Paul, i know you are a man with big heart and a head too. Paul, all your ideas are very good and can be useful if someone decide to share a little part of his land with an homeless. But, for now, no one have said a single word about their human senses and desire to REALLY help an homeless or helping you on a project. It is always the same thing: I want this and I want that, could you give me this or that. No one is offering something, they just ask and ask and ask again. LIFE, please tell me who isw the real beggar? someone in need or someone who can give but, will only ask and beg to simply have more and more and always for free. Please, tell me Paul, is there someone who had asked to buy your plan?? with the idea to build one on his land for an homeless person?? I know, that Cop can't be on your property without a warrant, that mean your homeless will be in security. I will never believe that no one have an empty space of 6x10 feet, on their land. To all readers: Think about it: if an homeless is beaten on the street, is it your fault?? If you can prevent it and you do nothing, is it your fault? For sure, you gone have a thousand good reasons to say, i can't do that. Why don't you try to find a single good reason to do it, instead of blaming the community. In a way, Paul is giving you many ways to help, almost for free and be proud to help a human in need. I see a lot of bad comments coming, and the first one will be: If you are so smart, what are you doing for the homeless? Answer is: I am doing my best with what i have, like building some tiny house in a small village ( project for this summer, now it is minus 39 celcius in Québec). Who gone build each tiny house with me? answer: The homeless, they are not useless and without skill, they are only without money and help. Ok Ok, there is also all the bad one who make you feel good when you do nothing for the good one. So, finally, do you have some place on your land, now??? Do you have some place in your heart??? LIFE is blessing you for what?? Do you deserve it?? Really?? Proove it by sharing. Even misery is less painful when we share it.
+harry coleman Well Harry,, your English is not the best, but it didn't stop you from saying a lot of smarter things than people very fluent in English say. Thanks for writing what you did. Some hopeless people can't be saved, but a lot of them can. The ones that can be just need a hand up, They are then likely to be very grateful, & will want to help you help others. I know because I have taken in homeless people before (w/ caution of course), & seen it. And I am hoping to do it on a much larger scale as soon as we can purchase our own land. I have even seen cats never forget that I rescued them. Again, thanks for writing what you did. People need to be made to think instead of being so shallow.
another great design
very creative and functional don't listen to the haters a very fine job you did there
Paul I am very happy to see your videos and ideas I wish you all the best! keep up the great work.
Thanks John D, Much appriciated.
Nice work brother. Thanks for sharing.
now i want to goto burning man to just see paul and get tips for building stuff
You have some great designs and a wonderful imagination! I really admire you for it. Thank you for sharing them with us. P.S. I am really interested in a closer look on how your shelter folds up.
It's cool looking too. Reminds me of a space pod.
Clever design. Would be good for people to make for the homeless like you suggest. Just doesn’t seem that our governments care that much for people without a home. But this would be great if somebody wanted to help a few people out during the cold weather. You could always scale it up or down to make it cheaper / more cost effective.
The most cost-effective solution for homelessness is to nationalize all currently private housing, so parasitic landlords can no longer hoard it while the poor freeze on the streets.
I was NOT happy. I should never have bought a Ford FU150 truck that had sat for a year. After cutting myself, I should have stopped and taken care if the wound but, we overcame all obsticles and had a good time anyway. My brother is fine and, although the base of the tree was 12" in diameter, the roof sustained no harm. Only the flue was damaged. No biggy.
very easy to install. Practical and "Great"
Youre my inspiration i want to be enginer now
man, you are amazing. I wish I could get some of your designs to the homeless organizations here, we have a huge homeless population. do you have blueprints available?
No, unfortunately I don't. Maybe some time in the near future.
Dude you are the bomb! I had/have been facing homelessness a few times now, good landlord's are hard to find when work gets scarce. But I'm getting by for now. Which has me thinking that while i have a few bucks I want to scare -proof life. So, I was watching your other video on the bicycle caravan thing and thought I would go one more.
I mobile/camper home that has two sections. The cabin living section that can be towed and left in situ and the power assisted trike/velo' that pulls it. It's all weight to ratio thing. I can power from batteries and solar as well as hook up and a dynamo that builds power from travel to separate reserve batteries. A rear double (bicycle wheel) base and the cabin have 6 wheels - another double rear wheel base. (27.7 wheels from mtbs ). I will put it up as I do it on my site. First off a load of hours working to earn the cash to pay for the parts and welder, heat gun, etc...etc. So one day a boss says sorry Mark no work and the landlord says no money no roof, I hitch up and go! Work where I can get paid by account to my bank all mail by email. Then buy land to build an Earth-ship! ( A semi- subterranean home would be very cool - into an old quarry wall would be best, the hole filled with water and fish). I am getting some great ideas for life off grid.
Brilliant, yes please put up some blueprints for this shelter.
They are silver colored too. Ship a bunch to Haiti. That way they could slum it with some swag.
Rich man ; DUDE, I wish I could afford a SPACESHIP
Poor man : _I can help you with that_
Very cool just missing a little pot belly stove.
Nice Job,Paul! and please do a VDO on the new shelter!
Simply awesome. Love your creations.
There sure are some interesting idea's out there.
Snow load resistant Temporary shed, to work on my snowblower below zero and not freeze.Very nice wind break, and reflective inside.
Great for battery powered led lighting.
Gotta be better than a monkey hut in snow
this would make a great ice fishing hut
once secured to the ice
Nice set up !
Awesome video
Wow. Inspiring. Good thinking/enginering. You're gifted/talented. Thanks.
Wowee ... Looks like the House when's again, players place your bets. I'm definitely thinking again about purchasing a used truck.
I just want to cut a hole in the ceiling install a wood stove and coat with fiber glass and live inside.
Hey Paul - I really like your idea a lot! Well done sir!
I'm involved with the socially underprivileged/homeless and although I could try and replicate the basics of your design, I wondered if you would be willing to share the plans and/or dimensions for the six triangular 'end' cuts on the cabin structure? Please PM me if we can discuss?
I'm in the UK and something like this would be infinitely better than a tent, as the Cabins thermal-foam construction is undoubtedly able to keep occupants a lot warmer, even without heating. It looks relatively lightweight - and could easily be erected on site for the occupant, or transported on a cart/trolley for the occupant to build themselves.
I've just noticed another of your videos in the side-bar showing the use of Coroplastic or 'Corex' type corrugated material - this was the primary material I first considered because it is very light and relatively easy to assemble but without extra internal thermal insulation, corrugated plastic wouldn't be much more of a thermal barrier than being in a tent.
I'm aware of the upload date of the video!

I don't have plans for that particular shelter yet. This smaller tipi is what I have plans for.
ua-cam.com/video/yYwHToAC3iY/v-deo.html
It's smaller at 4 sheets, but we really like it. It's made of 1-1/2" thick foam board.
It stretches out to 8.5 feet end to end and about 7 feet tall.
IF PAUL ANSWER YOUR RQUEST ABOUT HIS DESIGN PLEASE RESEND IT TO ME. THANKS YOU. raulae@gmail.com
I am about to be homeless and would love to see plans for this! So many of us have lost shelter due to the aftermath of covid-19.
Well done.love this shelter
brilliant work and thank you for uploading the video
That is amazing! I would love to see a how to.
i hope i end up camping next to you someday !
Very cool shelter. The world needs more people like you.
The world needs more people who are willing to take housing away from the rich so it can be enjoyed by those who actually need it.
comes complete with a set of matching foil hats !
on two occations this year i saw the pedal car on the move from a distance. both times i was too occupied to give chase and meet you. maybe next time!
My house flooded several years ago. Our small town was flooded and it is a long process to rebuild. For the US great organizations to give to to help disaster victims are red cross and salvation army. You can see on my playlist of flooded house the workers who came to help rebuild.. Red Cross and Salvation Army help with vouchers for new appliances etc, and household items.
Hey,
Very impressed with your concept that could be used for homeless shelters.
I support the homeless in the Raleigh NC area and noticed that their tart and old tents do not provide protection from the weather here.
I want to build the shelter for them and later if it works talk to my church men's group about making building shelters a project.
I have watched tour you tube many times and thing I can figure out your lay out for the shelter. It would save time and materials if you where willing to share the plan lay out with me. The tapping pattern is another aspect of construction I would be interested in for construction.
We have a lot of rain here, not like the desert, so will need to build the shelter as water resistant as possible.
If their is a way I can contact you please advise.
Thanks
Mark
What about resilience against snow, rain and wind? Seem to be very lightweight. Maybe too light for bad weather?
Way cool I love your video's
i want to see more about the quadricycle
Amazing !!! Excellent 😍👍👍👍
Do you have plans for using standard 4x8 sheets of Foam, Plywood etc and being able to build a inexpensive, collapsable, lightweight, easy to erect and take down, minimum effort to build, lots of natural light and ventilation, parts easily available that could sleep one person and be used as an office and sleeping space? Enough protection that would keep a person out of the wind and weather?
Happy Thanksgiving Paul & Co. Took a minute or two to realize what I have to be thankful for. The list THIS year is quite different from years gone by. I like to think that the most important things in life are kindness, love and friendship....getting closer to our maker and living life with a determination to succeed at: kindness, love and friendship and getting God "in" on our journey....because without all of the above, it doesn't matter what you have or acquired or built. Make it a great day!
Maravilloso...te felicito Paul...eres increible....!!
You are great Paul.
Thanks John. Very kind, very kind. I'm not that great, just doing what I love.
I like all your stuff
Paul Elkins also would love the plans... or I'll attempt to copy it any way :P thanks for the awesome idea
You never fail to srprise me, Great
l like your obsessions Mr Elkins
I like it!
Great job by great man
Did you ever put out plans for this design?
great idea, can you ship us a prefab one into the Southern Baja desert?
Cool concept!
Wow very cool
Great stuff Paul needed a lift that did it paul UK
Good for search and rescue in Alaska
i would buy this
Love it!
Paul, if you still read these, have you considered using a plastic welder in joining the Coroplast sheeting?
I need the measurements for that that sounds like a good deer camp
en lo mas simple esta esencia de la vida y felicidad gracias....
Imaging how stable this could be with treated plywood lt or pvc to attach the sideing together an putting a peice of canvas over it glued down to the outside an painted,,how strong it be,smaller set up pulled by a small trailer to drag around,an stake points tohold it in place dureing winds
so cool !!!! love it
What a great idea!
Awesome...
Kewl!!!!! Also a answer to some homeless "maybe". Another guy built some small wooden shelter/homes for homeless...,ooked nice! BUT city took them and took to landfill due to jealous neighbors saying they were an eyesore. Sad thing as I can't keep my utilities paid right now and it is a scary feeling with not a lot of help I know of and I am only about 4-500 dollars behind. Might as well be thousands at this point. Disabeled and can't work.
Fantastic shelter"
Kodo's..
