If you have a hammock, you can use the same frame with the hammock rather than buying the camp chair. Just fold your hammock in half Over the piece of wood. Then hang both loops over the top of the Tri pod Good channel. Always interesting. Lots of useful information.
if you have free time, make a website, do some journal entries with some diagrams, maybe advertise in some online places, etc. that and just stick with UA-cam.. or you can livestream on Twitch some survival stuff, it's really big and gets lots of attention. With your knowledge of how-to, you'd be surprised how popular you'd get.
Best part is its made in the USA, but I know what you meant. Thank you for your service to the citizens of this awesome country and thank you for the great information.
My brother made a chair like this years ago, and he loves it. I purchased the hidden woodsman chair, and plan on building my first one tomorrow. Thanks for the tutorial, I definitely needed it … 👍🏻
I picked up a poly net hammock designed for hanging kit, but I’m going to repurpose it for a bushcraft chair and my woodsman’s bed. Loving your channel. Binge watching while the thunderstorms roll through. Take care. And thanks.
Outstanding! Pure gold. When backpacking for days, having a comfortable camp (and chair) can actually make the difference between enjoyment and toil, survival and disaster. You must be able to rest when not laboring. I have been applying the knowledge you're sharing and WOW, the techniques and knots really work! Thanks again, Cpl., and please keep 'em coming.
I use military issue laundry bags myself. Just cut a small slit on each side on the bottom and hem it. Rope on top cinches it shut and allows me to tie it to the tripod.
I am going to try to do this. I ordered the fabric. I have the bank line. Now I just have to find a wooded area where I can harvest 4 perfectly straight poles that are 2" in diameter and all of sufficient length that I can cut to 6' and 5'. Whew, I am getting excited!
Great video Corporal! Kudos to "The Hidden Woodsman" for this "outstanding" product. The design and usage got me to "imagining" that by doubling (or so) the length of the "Camp Chair" fabric and sewing a few side-mounting tubes, the piece could be multi-tasked and could also be configured as a cot, a litter or a travois. I admire your talent, your dedication and your very fine tutorials. Press On!
Simple and comfortable, brilliant! You have a nack for teaching others. I would have follewed you in any mission of a conflict, sir. From one soldier to another - semper fi.
I’ve been watching for a good while. I had a feather stick fire in a downpour and enjoyed fresh trout under the tarp, which took minutes to set up including stakes made in the field. Couldn’t have done that without you. I’m very grateful for the skills you’ve helped me acquire.
I have a piece of red nylon already sewn like this. I took it off a broken aluminum folding chair. I was only interested in the scrap aluminum. I didn't toss the fabric (yet). I'm tempted to try this, if only because I already have the seat. Totally doable.
...and another great video. And your lashings are a fantastic example of how a lashing should be done, should look, and should hold. And yet another reason for Household 6 to grit her teeth when a mystery package arrives from The Hidden Woodsman...
Did anyone else catch the unusual ethereal music in the background of this mystical bushcraft camp chair video 😂 have I missed that he’s had it in all the other videos or is this just a this one 😂 I think it’s hilarious 😆
Great piece of gear! I made some of these a couple years back out of a single yard of hammock fabric. It's much lighter, and probably less durable then yours, but it is very comfy. I made a couple of short whoopie slings and use one at the top (vs. your mule tape loop) when I'm using it in chair mode, that way it is adjustable for length and recline/sag. I use two whoopie slings when I use it as an under-hammock gear shelf to keep my pack and other stuff off the ground, but still in reach when I'm in my hammock. In the stuff sack I also made for it, everything is smaller than a soda can, and weighs just under 3 ounces.
Totally bought one too. I got a cool canvas stool from Graybearded green beret too. Now I just need the canvas cot that works with similar concept and my life will be complete
A square lashing is recommended in lieu of a diagonal lashing, the purpose for which is to close the gap where two poles cross but don't touch. The advantage with the square lashing is there's more surface area between the cordage and the poles, and hence a more secure hold.
Great vid. Love this idea. I’m going to make one of these for sure. A buddy of mine and I were in the woods last weekend and made a bench to sit on. This would have been much easier and probably more comfortable. I could see modifying this just slightly using a prusik knot on the “ridge pole” so you could tie the top of the chair through it and then you could adjust the back up and down to lay back some if you wanted. The “camp lay-z-boy” of sorts. Might require a longer pole or taller “struts” to get it just right, but that would all be fine. I could see you being able to turn it into a combo plow point shelter and a chair almost like you did with your recent vid where you made a cooking fire where your seat might go. Lots of possibilities. Keep up the great videos!
I've watched a lot of various camp videos, and I still think this tripod chair is the way to go: off the ground, a place to sit, eat, work and if you have something to put your feet and legs on, a great way to sleep. Thanks for showing your version.
Your show is my favorite because you get to the point, and give clear instructions about relevant subjects (especially good demos and applications re knots, which can be key. ) Thanks, again.
You can use a Hessian grain or "sugar" bag to make this it also makes a handy backpack with rope or even a bed if threaded over 2 logs you used to buy grain layer pellets for chooks chaff etc in them even potatoes in the old days
Excellent video, crystal clear instruction & the camera set ups seemed particularly well thought out. Haven't watched your videos for a while ... You're getting Good! ... KUDOs.
I've been a subscriber for a few years now, I watch these videos enough your voice has replaced Morgan freeman's voice for internal monologs, it's very awesome to find these "unseen by me" videos still, just like a fat gold nugget in the UA-cam gravel
With out the tarp seat this looks like it would make a better throne then the trench in-between two trees or woodsmen throne. Letting you move it each evening, and filling in the hole so that nothing comes around at night. I like to see yea make a bath tub for clean up yourself, out of a water proof tarp..
If you have a hammock, you can use the same frame with the hammock rather than buying the camp chair. Just fold your hammock in half Over the piece of wood. Then hang both loops over the top of the Tri pod
Good channel. Always interesting. Lots of useful information.
Bank line!!! Thank you! I kept calling it marine line and nobody ever had it🤣 Great chair too😊🙌
underrated channel. so simple and straightforward guides.
Agreed, and I don't know what to do to fix that, however thanks for watching

Dude, the music choice on this video is crackin' me up! great stuff, Thank you sir
Step by Step instruction never fails. Mil Instruction at its best. TYFYS.
Excellent teaching and visual demonstration
My brother made a chair like this years ago, and he loves it. I purchased the hidden woodsman chair, and plan on building my first one tomorrow. Thanks for the tutorial, I definitely needed it … 👍🏻
I really like Bush craft projects like this.

Great Video, simple and to the point, no fluff!!!!!
I've said it before and I'll say it again : your instruction is second to none.
Outstanding.
This is such a decent, intelligent channel. Much appreciated. Semper Fi
Good job Corporal. Your lashing are picture perfect. Super neat, a work of art. I know that comes from your training. Thank you for your service.
9:16 "This is outstanding!" Looks like your out sitting to me!

I wish I had you along the first time I tried to make a chair like that. My boys are still laughing at me. Thanks for sharing
Love This! Gotta do itI I'm thinkin' the chair, some russet potatoes with bacon and a cold beer. Thank for your (continuing) service!
I'm not saying the video was bad, but i like your video's without music. Love your videos!
Hell yea I gotta make me one of these. No more furniture stores for me. Cheers Corporal. Salute.
Funny thing, when we climbed Mt. MoFo I don't remember any of the DI's being worried about 'smoothing it.' :)
I like your choice of background music for this one.
Doing my best to keep you on here. Love your videos.
First time seeing this video. Well done sir 👍
I have learned how to tie so many knots from you, this is great never had the opportunity to learn knots as a kid.
I use military issue laundry bags myself. Just cut a small slit on each side on the bottom and hem it. Rope on top cinches it shut and allows me to tie it to the tripod.
I've been watching you for a while and I can say that you are a great teacher your correct and squared away Af
Nice work. I like the calming music too. Thanks
Watching all your videos.
No blah blah, functional good information done well, thanks buddy.
I am going to try to do this. I ordered the fabric. I have the bank line. Now I just have to find a wooded area where I can harvest 4 perfectly straight poles that are 2" in diameter and all of sufficient length that I can cut to 6' and 5'. Whew, I am getting excited!
Dude, you make the best instructional videos. Thanks for the tip about paracord stretching.
Thank you very much I will definitely do the same👍🔥🤗🤠
Genius. If u have a hammock or a big blanket maybe it works if you fold it around the supportlog, and back uptop ? Worth a shot.
Great video Corporal! Kudos to "The Hidden Woodsman" for this "outstanding" product. The design and usage got me to "imagining" that by doubling (or so) the length of the "Camp Chair" fabric and sewing a few side-mounting tubes, the piece could be multi-tasked and could also be configured as a cot, a litter or a travois.

Simple and comfortable, brilliant! You have a nack for teaching others. I would have follewed you in any mission of a conflict, sir. From one soldier to another - semper fi.
I appreciate your attention to detail, so helpful when I am trying to learn. We need a 24 hour outdoor channel and you should be on it.
UA-cam is 24 hours
Love your vids, brother! Best knot instructor on UA-cam! Thank you for your service!
Thank You this. It solves the Bush~Seat "problem". Beautifully Simple .
Something to try, A shortish sail makers whipping makes a neat and perfectly symmetrical tripod. Not suitable for everything but handy trick to know.
Top notch lightweight setup! And a good way to reduce the physical stresses of outdoor activity!
Once again you are the man!! No nonsense, just do it! Absolutely love your channel!!
I’ve been watching for a good while. I had a feather stick fire in a downpour and enjoyed fresh trout under the tarp, which took minutes to set up including stakes made in the field. Couldn’t have done that without you. I’m very grateful for the skills you’ve helped me acquire.
Sweet, Thanks for watching

Nicely explained. Here in the UK we make the seat as a draw string bag. Handy for carrying out a wet tent or tarp. Keep up the good work.
Great job! Looks very comfy. Just like that!
Nice way to add comfort to camp

Did anyone else catch the unusual ethereal music in the background of this mystical bushcraft camp chair video 😂 have I missed that he’s had it in all the other videos or is this just a this one 😂 I think it’s hilarious 😆
Yes, the older videos were an experiment with the background music it seems.

Well Cpl you sold one. The hammock seat got me.
Totally bought one too. I got a cool canvas stool from Graybearded green beret too.

Camp chair was the first thing I learned to sew. Super relaxing after hiking. Slack the top and snooze. Thanks for the smoothing it tips.
You are one of the best instructors out there. I always learn so much watching your videos.

Nice chair! I liked the background music as well
I have seen several videos like this but I like your chair best. Thanks for the video.
Thanks but unfortunately I will not get the views like the other channels, thanks for watching
Make sure you separate two of the poles so your shoulders fit between them for the most comfortable position.
Thank you for all the ideas
Thank you corporal Kelly good vlog 👍have good night ⛺ C😎😎L
In lockdown next to the woods and I've got a sewing machine...
Love it...thanks for the idea!!
You have the coolest looking sticks in that area.
Woo Hoo, another great channel! You rock sir!
Outstanding don't remember watching but came back to the video mabe do a update on it hand's on is always the best
Thank you for your channel, keep up the good work..👍😊
Never saw this before, this is great,....definitely gonna do this
I've watched a lot of various camp videos, and I still think this tripod chair is the way to go: off the ground, a place to sit, eat, work and if you have something to put your feet and legs on, a great way to sleep. Thanks for showing your version.
That’s the problem. Most “camp” videos pass themselves off as Bushcraft channels when in reality they don’t have a clue. Thanks for watching.
Your show is my favorite because you get to the point, and give clear instructions about relevant subjects (especially good demos and applications re knots, which can be key. ) Thanks, again.
Another awesome video, 👍🏻🤜
I wish I could download your videos to take with me on trips. They are so well explained and demonstrated. Your videos should be in any survival kit.
Simple and useful. Thanks. 👍
Good idea, need to make the chair shorter so you can have more slack. Thx Marine.
You can use a Hessian grain or "sugar" bag to make this it also makes a handy backpack with rope or even a bed if threaded over 2 logs you used to buy grain layer pellets for chooks chaff etc in them even potatoes in the old days
Excellent video, crystal clear instruction & the camera set ups seemed particularly well thought out. Haven't watched your videos for a while ... You're getting Good! ... KUDOs.
Just ordered this chair. Looking forward to getting out soon here in the PNW
I f'ing ❤️ that chair setup. Joe Robinette also uses your design. Really cool and practical.
Wow, good bushcraft knowledge in the lashes. Well done, sir! Thanks for posting this video!
Man, this music is crazy dramatic. I feel like someone is dying to this song
I've been a subscriber for a few years now, I watch these videos enough your voice has replaced Morgan freeman's voice for internal monologs, it's very awesome to find these "unseen by me" videos still, just like a fat gold nugget in the UA-cam gravel
It’s a great gadget to have for a base camp type of setting - I like it!
Thanks for the video. I am going to make one the next time we visit our little piece of Patagonian wilderness.
Mine is on the way! Thanks for another great video.
Corporals corner thank you my name is Richard and they follow you I love everything you teach us and me keep the good work
Bought one works great, Thanks Corporal
Awesome video! Glad to see a video on The Hidden Woodsmen Bushcraft chair! Only found one other one. Awesome piece of gear!!
With out the tarp seat this looks like it would make a better throne then the trench in-between two trees or woodsmen throne. Letting you move it each evening, and filling in the hole so that nothing comes around at night. I like to see yea make a bath tub for clean up yourself, out of a water proof tarp..
Beautiful chair and fantastic filming and editing Shawn! raising the bar for sure bro!
Awesome job bro. Thats a useful item built for comfort
Beautiful chair and nice meditative music. Well worth watching. 👍👍👍👍👍 😀
Looks comfortable!
Great instructional video! Outstanding!
Fantastic video again! Keep the educational video’s coming!
Shit goes south, you are going to be a valuable man to know. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Very nice, your instructions are great.
Thank you! I like this idea for camping
Oh, wow, neat chair. I love it! When we go camping I'll make one for hubbs Harry. Thanks for teaching this chair!
Thank you Corporal...
Thanks for another good video.
great technique, thank's you, I'll share it to my my scout's unity site...
It would be cool if someone would make a scarf that you could turn into a camp chair, like the one you made in this video.
That is really good. Will rebuilt it. Thanks. Greez from Germany!
Fantastic video.
