The welding blanket worked, sort of, but was easily ripped out. The extra weight of the snow, must of had extra tension on two of the corners, that let go under the extra weight. The blanket it's self was really light, but when it was soaked, became very heavy, and with out the fire, it just got to heavy for the corners. In the future I am going to use a small piece of canvas with fire retardant on it. A future project, if it works, I'll make a video out of it, pass along the results. If the fire is protecting you? You need to protect that fire! At least in my way of thinking.

" if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all" , the song from Hee Haw lmao! I'm glad you are back with us, I was wondering about you, you almost always post a little something, and I hadn't heard from you lately. Sorry you've been feeling bad, my turn to help keep up the Dr. Take care ol buddy, God Bless

Hey Mark! I tried to find you yesterday. Don't give up on me I'll find you sooner or later.

Any excuse to get into the woods, and I have waited for this one a long time. We've had some 60's lately. February is usually when we get out worst weather. Take care.

I can see why you would, but this is the best snow we've had in 10 years or so lol

It was in the teens, but the fire made the difference.

@@AlaskanInsights I've been looking into treating a piece of canvas with fire retardant, for fabric, and using it much like I did the welder's blanket. The one in the video was super heavy when it got wet.

@@GrandFatherOutdoors That sounds like a good idea,

Thank you for your optimism. God Bless..

Thank you for watching. Thank you for Subbing!

@stevemick6569 Time to put on the feed bag! For a little while there, I was 12 again, and having a ball.

@@HarshmanHills Next time, I will send you my address, and you can send it here! Lol

Thanks for the words of wisdom my friend. Take care

I think all that I had was some jerky and a coke. Laid back and enjoyed the moment. Thanks for your time.

I thought you may like this one!

Did you see the antenna at the end, I explained it somewhat at the end.

@@GrandFatherOutdoors Yep. Seems really handy and versatile while not taking up too much space in the pack.

@THENEWWRANGLER Thank you, glad you liked it.

@@MelanieRiley-lt2rl Thank you

@@HarshmanHills Thank you James

Thank you Mel, combining my favorite hobbies. Radio and the Great Outdoors.

@josephmorgan3715 Thanks Jo, I appreciate the kind words.

@@Bosundanbushcraft Thank you.

@@jacksummitt4304 congrats on being a grandfather. I'll be 65 in March. The new and the ancient lol

Thank you, wait until Friday, maybe Saturday. We have radio! A place to work a radio, and a place to sleep when you need too! lol

Hey VB! Good to see you!

@HarshmanHills Thanks James. You feeling any better yet?

@ yes. Cough has gotten a lot better and just passed my stone. Yay lol

@@HarshmanHills stone? Oh no! At least you are past the worst part.

Thanks Steve, I will post the last one Saturday. Yep! One more lol. Take care and God bless my friend.

I have two more videos on this, next Saturday I post the one with the radio in it. This would be like a multi day shelter for radio. Or most any other activities, but mainly radio! lol

@@MelanieRiley-lt2rl Thank you

Thank you James

@@garyantley Oh yeah, there will be a radio in the mix, lol de Ku4zx

I hear you! lol

@stevemick6569 Hey Steve! I was beginning to think no one was watching. Folks that I work with thought I quit TH-cam, said they haven't been getting any notifications. Weird this TH-cam thing. Thanks for watching!

I have three more videos to post on this series. They where too long to put in to one or two videos. Next one should be out Saturday. Good to see you.

@ I watched the 3 videos you have on the setup, a little binge watching while having coffee this morning.

​@alf3553 There should be five right now, number six will be up in the morning. Give you something to do while you drink your morning coffee .

Alf!!!!! Well I am glad you found me. I look a lot like that old NC Grayman guy don't I. lol

@@stevemick6569 That's right.

@@stevemick6569 This thing has potential. A place to sleep. I like a small shelter for sleeping, but I like extra tarp or poncho for extended coverage, like this awning. Thanks for stopping by. Semper Fi amigo!

@@HarshmanHills Great for lots of seniaros

@josephmorgan3715 I've been looking at it, for a year or two, when they first came out with. Thinking, that's right down my ally. Finally pulled the trigger on it. And glad I did. When the bugs come out, I'm protected, I can still look and see the outdoors staring back. I like that.

@@thevirginiabushcrafter8833 Thanks VB

@@DSNSoloCamping Thank you

@@greendayluvr042 Ham Radio and the great outdoors. 40 and 20 meters in the video

I'm loving this thing so far. It just has all of the right stuff, for my needs anyway!

I love it! Not getting paid to say so either lol

What's better than being able to head out into the woods, and working a little radio? I'm going to get a lot more active when the weather warms up. Thanks for the kind words, 73 and God Bless. de Ku4zx
