- This bug bivy is perfect for camping when its too hot for the tent, and too many bugs to sleep in the open. Designed to be used with a tarp in case of rain. It also has a 2 inch tub to keep you dry.
The hole setup is 14oz
All the materials were found at ripstopbythero...
The Tub: 2.2 oz HEX70
The Neting: 0.9 oz Noseeum mesh
Zipper: YKK coil zipper #5 & YKK Coil Slider #5 (double)

That zipper attachment is ingenius. They use that technique in knitting for some sweater designs.
This is impressive. And an underrated skill. Makes me regret goofing off in home economics class. Lol
the entry slit is quite unique! Well done
Many Thanks! It kind of tight to get in and out, maybe a half circle would have been better
Nice use of the chalk line! Clever!
Awesome job! Thanks.
Well done. Nice skills. Cool bug bivy. New follower here. Crow✌️
Damn, I'm impressed!
Looks great
You made that really easy.
I would love to be able to make things like this.
Top Effort.

Thanks a bunch, you can do it no problem
Nicely done!
Awesome DIY!!!!!
I think I just learned how to sew… 🤯 but really. You have a ton of great skills and definitely deserve more subscribers!! Your sense of humor alone. 😂
Mighty kind of you to say so! 👍🏻
Please give a thumbs down if you are unable to appreciate creative genius.
I was amused how the video went out of sequence, but the bug bivy turned out alright!
Damn, your a genius 😁
That’s Cool🙆
serious skills !!!
Nice!
man thats crazy !! do yıu have a pattern or you can make anothor video for detail
Do you need a ground cloth? Love the editing can follow along, but you don't talk the whole time. subscribed.
No ground cloth required. The tub is 2.2 oz HEX70 which I think should hold up fine. Thanks for the notes too, debated a narration but figured it was simple enough to do without.
Solid
What is the name of that fabric?
2.2 oz HEX70
thanks!
👍 okay, one for me please, thx 😄
no me moleste moskito !!!🎶🎶🎶
Nicely done but I’d be cheaper just buying one already done
Can you tell me the lenght and with of the bathtub as well as the with of the mosquito side panel?
i would have made the tub higher thou
Yeah, me too if I could have done it over
I think if you put the zipper at an angle it would be easy to get in and out.
Yeah for sure it's kinda tricky to get in and out. That was the last step and, admittedly, I was ready to be done with it.
I didn't understand how did you sewed the triangle... But I liked it
You're so awesome. I recently bought mosquito net without floor... I have to use my raincoat as floor during my stay in the woods. Have you tried sewing tarp for camping?
Thank you!!!
I have made a tarp and it's fairly simple. You should make a tub for your net and sew it all together!
i see many use mosquito net ,assuming there no dreaded ticks in your country ?
I'm about to do a similar project. Was there anything special you had to do to sew the zipper onto the insect mesh or was it just plug-n-play?
It's probably a good idea to use tissue underneath thinner ripstop and insect mesh. However, I seem to have gotten away without using it ever. Maybe do a few tests without tissue paper backing.
About how long did it take for this project assuming you already know how to sew and have the plan/pattern and materials.
I'd like to know the answer to that as well as I have a scout troup that wants to make them
Thanks for the reply!
It took two weekends. Partly because I ordered the wrong pull for the zipper and wasn't sure how it all worked. It was my first shelter and first time sewing a zipper so I wanted to lay it all out first.
To buy cost in my country MY around US15.
Do you sell these?
Are the seams on the bottom water proof? Also what material is the bottom made of?
Also how did you make those folds and corners of the bottom?
You need to seam seal all of the seams to make it waterproof. The tub is 2.2oz hex70.
To make the boxed corners, you remove a square then stitch the edges together. Hope that helps 👍🏻
Where can I find the detailed plan?
I really just sketched out a triangular prism and figured out how long I needed it (which was 7ft based on me being 6ft)
I wanted it to be as tight inside as possible for weight and the ability to deploy in a small space.
Lol are you making these for people???❤
No, just a one and done
@Jbmongold no worries I ended up trying a paria brand version of this and just confirmed I'm a hammock person years of doing this in the army has broke me lol thanks for the reply
Can I use plywood instead🤔
Please do that and make a video!!
Hi, could you tell me what diameter of the cord did you use?
🤔yep
The ridgeline is 4mm paracord. For the prusik knots, used to attach and tighten the bivy onto the ridgeline, I used 1.8mm utility cord. Prusik knots work best when a smaller diameter cord bites onto a larger one.
Total Yardage?
2 yards of the 2.2 oz HEX70 and 4 yards of the 0.9 oz Noseeum mesh
When you don't know how to use a sewing machine or the complex learning curve of cut shapes on fabrics. EASY
Listen you obviously are very skilled. But all this video did was to convince me that I should never make what I can buy. The time and skill it took you costed 20 times more than just buying it.
You can look at several factors to determine whether or not you should make it or buy it. In this case the tub material, bug net mesh, and zipper assembly cost $37.53 (including $7.95 shipping). You might have a hard time finding a bug net with a tub for cheaper. For me there is a satisfaction in making and using your own equipment that is hard to put a price on.
Isn’t that nice
Nice!
