I make a lot of these. One tip that I found out myself was to only have 3 sticks coming out of the bottom. This is aid in keeping the lantern stable on uneven surfaces.
LOVE that you're speaking now. I hate having to read my way through a video. Please keep the narration during your videos. I'm not really into the Viking trend, but I AM into the 1700's and 1800's Mountain Man wares. I figure I can adapt your designs to fit my needs?

Absolutely 😁👍🏻🔥 it can easily be used for that period and I’m glad you like my DIY video and the way it’s made Thanks for your feedback and good luck making your own lanterns 🏕🔥🌲Tom
templates let you save what works and adjust what doesn't. so are a very good idea, especially as it is hard to know just how much the rawhide will shrink.
Hah,I was wondering if there was a door and there you go with a nice and simple slide in candle holder.😀 I enjoy working with wet rawhide and have made a simple rawhide quiver with my longbow killed doe.
You are an artist. I mostly appreciate that you narrate your videos in English. It is clear that it is not your first language, but I love that you narrate, instead of making us listen to bad music and guess why you do what you do. By the way I am mostly mono lingual, and the fact that people speak more than one language is amazing to me. you are amazing.
Very Cool, I could never imagine just how to make these or anything else on your channel, but you make it like "oh ya duh" haha. Thank you. I hope to try some time!
Nice work. I don't have any knowledge of the Viking era but I was wondering if they used what we call the baseball stitch. I like that better for joining and aligning two edges of leather. Maybe that is not period correct.
Very interesting video. Just wondering why you call these viking? Is there an extant example or other reference from the viking time period? I'm familiar with these type of lanterns, but the extant examples I found are only about 200 years old. Wondering if I missed some references.
That’s a good question 🤔 and I’ve never thought about that … they are called medieval lanterns … but I actually don’t know if it’s a thing that was made back then … have too find out the story behind it … thanks for your question 😉👍🏻🔥Tom
Very clever projects, and there are always problems to be solved and things to be learned. Have you considered waste oil lamps? The safety features are attractive and at least for your buildings they are a great solution!
I wonder if the tannins in tea or oak bark would stain the wood in a similar way. Do you know if the vikings used decorative stains and what they might have used? I imagine birch tar was well known to them, but I don't know what level of dilution would look nice and yet not be a terrible fire hazard. :)
Yeah that’s right that they used birch tar 😉 but only for protection of the wood 🪵 and they also used burning as a type of decoration and protection. And I often burn my wood work for decoration Appreciate your feedback and question my friend 👍🏻🔥 Tom
I've seen this lamp with the Thor's hammer in another video from you. So my question, does the Thors hammer, like it's made of metal, heating up very much? because of the candle I mean
Yeah the videos that will be posted here on this channel is some I’ve had on my main channel before 😉 No the Thor’s hammer doesn’t get very hot because it’s only small candles I have in the lantern 😊👍🏻🏕🔥🌲Tom

Easy enough to do. 😃
Drawing a hexagon is easy. Draw a circle, then with the compass at the same radius, walk the perimeter of the circle.
Thanks for your tips 😉👍🏻 I appreciate your help and glad you like my video 🏕🔥🌲🐕

@@diycimbrer Now you have inspired me to try one. i loved the first video you made last year about it too
I've been making lanterns inspired by these but with shades of stitched muslin. This winter I'm upgrading to rawhide.
That sounds great my friend 😉👍🏻 and I hope you’ll have a lot of fun creating those new lanterns 🏕🔥🌲Tom🇩🇰
The vegetarian's choice! :)

Love the video Tom! It even inspired me to make my own. It is almost done. I just need to finish sewing one end and assembling it.
Nice work. I don't have any knowledge of the Viking era but I was wondering if they used what we call the baseball stitch. I like that better for joining and aligning two edges of leather. Maybe that is not period correct.
Honestly I don’t know what it was called in the Viking age but it’s a great one to use 😁
Tom
