- This is the making of Hot Tent 2.0 ! This video took me a long time to make . I struggled with the making of this video . However , many of you have asked about the process, so , here it is ! I hope this helps answer any questions you may have had . I also hope this inspires some of you to build your own tent and find adventures with them ! ! Show me your tents !!
If you are considering building a similar tent , I encourage you to visit the channel Far North Bushcraft and Survival . There you will find a fine explanation and break down of how Lonnie built his as well . It's another point of view of a very similar process . Very informative and well worth looking into !
Thank you to all for the support ! The last month has been wild ! Please feel free to ask questions you may have in the comments ! I will try my best to answer as best I can . I'm no pro , I can't tell you how to , but I can tell you how I do ... I'm just sharing my experience with you . It is fun interacting with you all . Thank you for your time !

If you are curious about the capabilities and durability of these builds, wondering how well the tape holds, or believe the tape won't hold at all, you may find this video interesting..I did an 8 month torture test on this tent. If you are interested here is the link to the torture test. Thank you for watching and supporting the channel. th-cam.com/video/PCltLEE5is4/w-d-xo.html&t
pity that in Canada those tarps are illegal to use as a shelter to sleep under ... neat build though
@@kaboom-zf2blWhy? -- and, why, do you tolerate that government?

Based off this video, I just made my own hot tent. It's 20F and I'm texting this in my tent next to a stove. Hearing the snow fall on the tent walls and roar of the fire is priceless. Thank you for the inspiration and instructional video that made this night, and many more, possible!
That is awesome!!! I am very happy to hear this. These tents are incredible. A worth while project no doubt. I am glad you are enjoying yours. Happy hot tenting to you.
Awesome job on the tipi. I sure like that size also. NICE. I like them tie out points also. I think you and I talked about that in the past but it was difficult for me to understand what you were describing on the how-to aspects of the tie out points. The tie out points were visually explained very well here and even I got it this time around. lol Thanks for the shoutout. Much appreciated. May you have many years of great adventures in your tipi.
Thank you! The size of this tent is quite nice. My family and I have set it up in the woods out back. We have been camping out in it. It shelters 3 people and 2 dogs with plenty of space to spare! That is with an air mattress and a cot in it . The thing is huge! Thank you for letting me know you could follow along LOL These kind of videos are very hard for me to make.I always wonder if people can make sense of what I am saying.....and that's picking on my ability, not anyone else.
The Tipi has been standing through a week of pretty hard rain and 30-40 mph wind gusts! Taking it like a champ! The guy out points are holding strong, not the slightest sign of failure. I have also come up with an extremely effective and simple way to keep the door shut. It involves 2 bungee cords! That's it. Amazingly simple, amazingly effective! I'll show my technique in an upcoming video. Thank you so much for watching my video....and taking the time to comment! Vey much appreciated. I hope you and Connie are well. Take care.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods Yes Connie and I are indeed doing well and we hope the same for you and your loved ones.
I will be looking forward to seeing a video rendition of your door closing method. I have had my tipi, which is smaller than yours, out in a severe windstorm as well and it survived without any signs of damage. We did end up dropping the center pole and and laying the tipi on top of us as Connie and I huddled in our sleeping bags the rest of the night for fear that the tipi would be shredded and tossed out into the alpine lake we were camped next to. Come morning the wind abated enough that we could break camp and safely head out. Our tipi may have been able to stand throughout the storm had we had side tie outs such as you developed. I have ordered a commercially produced large silnylon ultralite tipi along with a titanium stove which should be here in about 2-3 weeks so I may not be using my homemade tarp tipi/pyramid tents much anymore but I still like your tie out method and may go ahead and use it on my tarp tents.
@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival no Probs , I'm thinking to have a go now and make it just looking to see what size tarp is needed again. I'll do it through lockdown slowly
@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival do you want to sell your home made tarp tipee?
@@drummingearth5326 Good luck with your project. I will be keeping my DIY tarp tipi. I have so many different tents that I actually do not know how many I have, lol
This is an awesome "how to" video!!! Dont be so hard on yourself.
I am a female about to make my first canvass winter hot tent and have been watching several vids on how to do it. Im following yours!
Thank you for your time, effort and passion for sharing your knowledge of the great outdoors. I greatly appreciate all that you have done. When I make my tent I will video it so other women can be empowered and inspired to do it also. 💜
This is fantastic! Please keep me posted on your build! I would absolutely love to hear about it. Best of luck and enjoy your build!
Hello! I followed your instructions and made my tipi tent!
It stood tall for 9 days in the wind and rain.
I did have a few issues:
1) I made my stove jack with a silicone baking sheet (seen on other videos) it worked good the first night but the second night the stove was so hot the entire Gorilla tape job and tarp near around the pipe jack started to melt.
2) I think my guylines are maybe a bit too high.
3) the last morning the entire tent leaked. I didnt waterproof it. Is that necessary?
Overall, this was an easy build and I love the tent set up and it is so easy to put up myself.
Any suggestions on how to deal with my mishaps would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you for this video.
I have found that a tennis ball with a whole cut in one side is a great way to save the tarp from ripping at the peak.
Great video, very cool geometry with the cuts, took a few minutes to see how it worked.
The tennis ball is a good idea!!
👍 I love this idea . Harbor Freight had a 11' 4" x 19' 6" on sale this past weekend . I'm going to use your idea with minor adjustments for the size difference . The center pole I will top with a PVC 1 1/2" cap to lessen the stress on the tarp and tape in the center . there are also now available hi-temp silicone mats that I will use for my stove pipe / tarp exit point . Thanks for the very clear instructions , not every poster does that .
Sounds like you have a solid plan!! If you take the time to make one, you will have a solid tent for years to come. These builds are awesome! Rugged. Lots of room.
Have fun with your build! I would love to see some pictures of it when it's finished! Please keep me posted
A guy could make an adjustable center pole by using 2.5 inch & 2 inch PVC pipe . Cut both sections to 4 feet . Take a drill and make holes Then use a spring pin to lock in place . Just a thought.
I hope you share the finished project. I would love to see it!💯♥️
Duuuuude! I just ordered a Nortent Gamme 4 but watching you build this… man… I gotta make that m’self too. Any hobo would feel like a king in there. Awesome job at the tutorial. You rock. Subscribed!
This tent is a beast of a tent! I have to make a repair to it from the torture test, but it is still going strong ! This is a hobo paradise hahahaha! You will not regret building one i f you choose to do so.
That Nortent you just bought is a nice tent! I am glad you enjoyed the video. I appreciate you letting me know. Thank you for your support of the channel! Happy camping with your new tent. Cheers
Ok, seeing this in Jan/23. I'm soooo doing this with my 8yo son...
Tooo Flippin Cool!!
You and your son will have a great time doing this project, and you will have a tent you made for years! Building memories! Please keep me posted on your project. Have fun!
Video rocked. Daughter and I are going to attempt one now
Awesome tent! You did a great job with the video! Very easy to follow and understand.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you very much. This is a fun and worthwhile project. This tent is a beast!
Vry nice job! Plus the satisfaction of truly being "your tent!"
Absolutely ! There Is a great reward in using something you made ! Thank you very much ! - Justin
That is an awesome hot tent! It is a really good size too. Mainly you don’t have to crawl into it. Awesome job!
Thank you . This thing is huge . I really like it . I'm not used to such luxury . LOL
You did very well with the video! Good cuts, no wasted video, good overall length, covered all the key points. Dark music, though...!
Thank you! I get so many comments about that music LOL
I love the music, bring it on!!!!😂
Love this tutorial... But may I add I love the background music as well👍
I appreciate that. I have caught a lot of flack for that music choice. Thanks for letting me know you like it. Thanks for stopping by
very kool that you gave props to Lonnie :)
Had to do it. Gotta give credit where it's due.
I think it's cool that you thought it was cool and let me know. Thank you sir. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours Paul.
Bro! Your tent is awesome, your instruction was on point, and your video was great. Thanks.
Thanks for the great feedback! I am glad you enjoyed it!
Great video. Thanks for all you share with us. It's awesome.
Glad you enjoy it! Thank you very much
Your video is just fine. I watched lonnie's video a couple of years ago. I knew I recognized the layout from there. I am going to try something a little different with a square or maybe a rectangular foot print. Basically something from a video by Survival Theory. Permanently tape in some reflective material and include a clear plastic door for a super shelter type of thing. Hoping to hold the clear on with magnets. I will be using all of your techniques with tape and flex seal etc. Good tip to use a heat gun to get the tape to flatten out and adhere. Happy trails.
I'll have to check out Survival Theory . Sounds cool . I have been thinking about a square or rectangle layout myself .......thinking I need to get my hands on some Tyvek to do it.........
The flex seal works awesome man . That stuff doesn't want to let go . Best of luck on your project . Keep me posted . Thanks for your time and support . Have a great weekend - Justin
If you ever get around to making the square layout or rectangle layout I would love to see how you made it and the final results.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods I have thought about using tyvek a lot, but tyvek seems to be very loud and some people say that crumpling it up and throwing through a dryer cycle with NO heat seems to make it more soft and less loud, however when I did that it compromised the integrity a bit, so I would be very interested in your experience if you ever finally decide to use tyvek.
This video just earned you a sub. You are a genius! This is very inspirational. Your tent looks really substantial and well made. You can pay a fortune for a hot tent and not get this quality, and the bonus is that you can design and customise your own tent. It also looks virtually indestructible. Thanks for the upload.
Not to mention that you can also then afford to chuck more money at the best woodburner you can get.
Very much appreciated! Thank you. This tent is absolutely fantastic! It is a beast! I put it through an 8 month torture test and the results were surprising to say the least. Rugged!! Well worth the time and effort in my opinion. Thank you for subscribing to and supporting the channel !
@@ItsGoodintheWoods well, when I retire, I fully intend to live off grid. I have now got a good idea how I will construct my home, and with what.
This is awesome, This spring 2024 my Grandchildren and (6 & 7 yrs old) will be starting this project, it will be constructed for backyard camping. Thank you so much.
That is fantastic!! They will remember that project with Grandpa for the rest of their lives!!! Good luck on your build. Please keep me posted on how it goes.
This is so cool I've always admired hot tents and always wanted to make one out of a tarp you nailed it thank you
Thank you. This is a worthwhile project. This tent is a beast!
Thanks for the good, well explained video. I've seen Lonnie's video on this, but I liked your video better. I thought you did an excellent job explaining how to do it, and seeing you do it as you explained makes it even easier to understand how to build the tent. I'm gonna make one now. Thanks again, and keep up the good work!
Most excellent. I appreciate the feedback . Now go build yourself an awesome tent. You'll be happy you did . Keep me posted on your project . I would love to hear about it , or even see it. Best of luck . Thank you for your time . Have a great weekend Jeff .
I had surgery a month ago, and am not allowed to do much. I'm extremely bored.
So, I've been watching a lot of videos on hot tent camping, but I can't afford one! This is something I can make and afford. This is my second time watching this. It gives me something to look forward to.
I also have an old propane tank. I saw a video on making a wood stove from one. I'm wanting to try that as well. I'm thinking it may work as a stove for the tent.
I think these projects would be great for you. These tents are rugged. If built right, you will get years and years of use out of it. DIY stoves are great! Go for it man! I hope you heal quickly from your surgery. Please keep me posted on your build
@@ItsGoodintheWoods thanks. Right now, I'm missing my husband. He was one of those men that could do just about anything.
He was going to teach me how to weld, but got cancer and died instead. So I'm gonna have to figure it out on my own.
The video that I watched cut the side off and welded a flat piece on so that it had a cooking surface.
Then he cut a piece off the other side for an ash tray and air control.
He also welded legs on it.
The top, which is now the front, was cut and he used a pot lid to make the door.
Don't know if I'm up to doing all that, but at least it gives me an idea of what can be done.
@@dizzysdoings I am sorry to hear about your husband.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods thanks. We would have been married 41 years come Tuesday.
I love your Tent and I love what you're doing
Thank you very much! I appreciate that
Awesome job don't sell yourself short 🤘. Great tutorial and cost breakdown. Liked the soundtrack as well 🕺
Thank you Jason
AWESOME!!! Gorilla tape is the stuff, brother. Very strong and very sticky...way stronger than a stitched seam. Excellent demo...thanks!
Hi John. I am very impressed with the capability of Gorilla tape! That stuff is amazing! I now take a patch of this stuff with me everywhere I go , A good length of it wrapped around a bic lighter. It's an EDC item now. I'm sure it's uses are limitless. That Flex seal tape is amazing stuff as well! Thanks for watching! - Justin
Great job, thanks for showing us. Take care.
Thank you very much for watching and commenting! I appreciate it.
Excellent video. I am sharing this tutorial to a DIY page on facebook.
Thank you for your support man !
Awesome video I appreciate the explanation and don’t feel like it was too vague man that was one of the best videos on this topic I’ve seen so far cheers buddy!
I appreciate that! Thank you for the comment
Sweet!! I've been wanting to see how you made these!! That's actually not that expensive. Another awesome video, Justin!! Cheers!
Mornin' Tim ! I don't think there's a cheaper option out there for the size ..........fight me LOL
@@ItsGoodintheWoods 0pppp
I was hoping the "very special guest and familiar face" was your beautiful white dog! lol
Thank you! Gypsy was such a great dog. I miss her everyday. Good dogs are forever
That's a cool project. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! This tent is a beast!
I love the diy! 113 is a great deal, especially because you were able spend time making it stronger.... great work, Justin! 🌲👍🌲
I had a sneaking suspicion that you would like this project . Really high tech ..very involved LOL . Thanks man
Very nice build , you thought it out well . 2 things that could help , on one end of the pole (top) add a tennis ball , it prevents wearing a hole . On the other end (bottom) get yourself a piece of 1/2 " plywood and cut a square about 16" × 16 " it helps support the tent in snow
Thank you for the suggestions
Merhaba Justin, Türkiye'den selamlar.harika bir iş çıkarmışsın.Dikişsiz,yüzde yüz su geçirmez bir kanvas çadırı olmuş,Tebrikler
Thank you! This is a fantastic build! Very impressed with how it turned out.
No need to apologize. Great video!
Thank you
Ha I never throw away tent poles either. That tent is perfect. Great video friend.😁🖑
I knew they would come in handy down the road ! I just knew it !!!! Justified pack ratting !!
Very GOOD job. You could fabricate and sell those. NICE JOB !!!
This is one rugged tent!
Everyones gonna need one the way things are going
I agree, that is possible
Hello Justin, great job on the hot tent very impressive. That thing is huge and spacious. I've been in the bush for 26 days just finished supper relaxing thought I'd watch a video this was a great one. Thank you! ATB Tom
Hey Tom. This was a fun project. That tent is a monster! Lot's of room. 26 days in the bush!!! That sounds amazing!
I know what I’ll be doing this weekend! Thanks for taking the time to make this awesome video!!!
Do it ! You must build a tent.... I can't wait to hear about it . Keep me posted . I'm glad you liked the video . Have a great weekend . - Justin
My husband and I lived in a make shift teepee for 3 years.....we made it out of three poles from a school gym remodel ( uneven parallel bars) and a tarp that was 20 x 40...we live in western NY state.....we had a futon as a bed and kept warm with a propane heater.....then we bought a camper. You do what you have to to live.
That must have been a very cool experience. I wish I had lived in a tent for a few year when I was younger.
This was awesome. Great work.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much. I appreciate the comment
Awesome tent I am Learning how to build a tent and watching you make it seem really simple
Thanks for watching. This is a simple process, it just takes a bit of time and care. Worth it! I hope you build one! Please keep me posted. I'd love to see it
That ultra-dramatic foreboding music! What's gonna happen?!
@xeepromx Hahahaha
A circle is going to happen before I get eaten.
Neat tent build. Made me want to play pac-man. Gonna build this soon. Awesome.
Pac Man🤣 Made me laugh! This build is well worth the time. Enjoy it! Please let me know how it goes.
Absolutely love your videos! I'm a New Hampshire expat living down here in Texas. When I first spotted one of your videos I said to myself this guy must come from New Hampshire! Back in my younger days I worked some logging jobs in and around Rangeley Maine and Azizcoos Lake. Brought back some great memories! Long live the badass Yankee outdoor spirit!
Good morning Bill. I have never been to Texas. I'd like to get out there some day. That region of Maine is just so incredible. I love getting out there. I want to get up to Aziscoos this winter badly....not sure if it's in the cards though. I have hiked all the 4,000 mountains of Maine though. ( New Hampshires too) In the winter! Beautiful stuff.
Thanks for your awesome comment and support. Very much appreciated. I'm glad I helped bring back some great memories. That is very rewarding for me to hear. I'm working on a video right now of my latest adventure. 2 nights and 3 days of camping and hiking in the mountains. I think you'll like it!........The badass Yankee outdoor spirit lives on . - Justin
@@ItsGoodintheWoods great to hear from you! I just took it for granted you were from New Hampshire but I assume that you're someplace in Maine? I was born and grew up in Berlin New Hampshire. I've hiked a few of those mountains myself! You do any hunting? The wild hogs around here are taking over and there's half the people want them gone and the other half are begging them to stay. It's turned into a pretty lucrative hunting situation for some. If I could figure out how to send you a couple of pictures of these hogs, I think you would find it interesting. Take care be safe.
@@billsmith1819 I am in New Hampshire. But I love Maine. I only hunt on my own property. I never had much interest in venturing out into the woods with thousands of other people that have rifles. However, I would love to go on a wild hog hunt. That has always been something wanted to do. Those things are bad ass. And ruining a lot of land. I can't imagine why some people would want them to stay.
We are having the same problem with coyotes. There are tons of them running around unchecked. We have an open season on them all year round. But not too many people actively hunt them . And now the powers that be here in NH want to limit coyote hunting. Some even want it banned all together. My dog has been attacked by them twice in the last year. Once just last month. She got ripped up pretty good. A $600 vet bill worth. I shoot every coyote that gives me the chance .
You made a great video-very clear and detailed. Excellent final product. Good music, too.
Thank you very much! Much appreciated!
Dude! Awesome video!
Thanks man . Much appreciated ! Have a great weekend !
You done good, you hit on some good points too. You have a neck for engineering. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you
Very cool ! I plan using insulated tarp . Only problem is the color , very bright orange ! But I can always buy spray paint and make a camo pattern and hide that bright orange ! LoL ! Cheers 👍
I bet an insulated tarp will make a real nice tent. !
Nice , hello from North Yorkshire England
Thank you ! And hello from New Hampshire USA
Wow, this turned out a lot better than I thought! Great work!
I felt the same lol! Thank you. This is one beast of a tent..I still have it.
@@ItsGoodintheWoods It looks a lot better than a lot of the cheaper winter tents I have been looking at. I have an insulated tarp I got off a construction site. I wonder how well that would work using this method. I think I would have to either burn or tap the whole bottom of the tent because of the layers. Something I may try.
I have framing crews and when we do half round windows we use that string technique. Nicely done bro. Great job on showing how everything was done. Love these DIY videos 👍. Have a good weekend Justin
Nice man ! I'm glad you like these DIY videos . I have to admit ...not easy for me to do .
I'm gearing up for a 3 day 2 night hot tent adventure in the woods and mountains ! It's cold !!!! I'm pumped ! Leaving tomorrow ! Thanks man ! You have a great weekend as well !
It's Good in the Woods be safe out there and keep the fires burning 👍
@@BackpackingWithJason word to my homie !
Good in the woods ...excellent video ...I think the only improvement or suggestion I would make is when you are cutting the opening for the door. Only cut out one half ...that would eliminate the need to tape on the flap to cover the door ...attach the extra material from the inside to keep out rain
If I do this again, I am going to try that
You did an excellent job describing the build. I too, follow LONNIE. I enjoyed this so much I SUBSCRIBED too. HAPPY TRAILS from NS CANADA.:)
Thank you for supporting the channel! Happy Trails!
I just discovered your channel. Love your energy, wit, and frugality. Good stuff dude. Oh yeah..always good eclectic music.
Namaste'
Right on ! Thank you . Your support is appreciated . I'm glad you like the channel - Justin
Love this! Thanks for doing the video. This might just hit my project list!
This should absolutely be on your project list . I want to see these things popping up everywhere .
@@ItsGoodintheWoods question - how would you adjust the measurements if the tarp were 15 * 20, rather than 16 * 20. I was thinking of coming back 6" from the corner on each side on the first measurement. Or would it make any difference?
@@gordbelsey1171 Use the same procedure I used . That formula works for any size tarp . My small hot tent I made from a 12' x 10' tarp.
Your 15' tarp will give you a slightly narrower base than mine. Mine is 14' wide at the bottom. yours will probably be 13' and change .
@@ItsGoodintheWoods Sounds good. Thanks
@@ItsGoodintheWoods great shout out to lonny @ Far North bushcraft BTW. Watching his video on this design, I have to say you did a fantastic job of explaining what you did and how you did it. Super helpful!
Absolutely wonderful...
I am glad you liked it! Thank you
Loved the presentation of this video .... definitely want to have a go. Thanks Justin again you make your channel a favourite.
Do it . You'll be glad you did , AS always , thank you for your continued support Mary . Have a great weekend . -Justin
Been waiting for this buddy thank you!
Your'e welcome . I hope you find it useful .
Thanks , Very well explained I feel like I could do this , I'd like to go even bigger Gotta love this channel
Thank you sir ! It's easy to do , just takes a bit of time . Not a single stitch involved ! Thank you for your support !- Justin
Did you make one? A size where half a dozen dudes could sit around a stove would be very cool.
Great job man. Way better than the $100 tepees we bought
Thank you!! This thing is a beast! I have left it standing out in the woods behind our house since late spring.....Still standing strong!!!
I was not confused by one bit, I like the size of the one you made I'm going out and buy me a tarp some tape and and a grommet kit can't forget the stove ,thanks
Go for it! This is a great build. Well worth the time and effort
Great video. You can apply a little more precision in the size of your tarp tipi using an online cone calculator. This will allow you to pick the center height of your pole and diameter of the tipi. This will give you the size of the triangle to cut out from the tarp.
Interesting.....
The suspenseful music was killing me. I thought a hockey masked Sasquatch was going to come out of the woods and get you.
He's out there.......🤣
I thought the same, like wtf is about to happen 😂😂💯
It is what it is, and I would say it is good 💪🤠👍 thanks for sharing brother
Howdy Yankee! This tent is awesome!!!
I hope you are well
@@ItsGoodintheWoods it looks awesome brother
Great video, and yeah, Lonnie is the man.
He really is! Those 2 are living the dream out there in Alaska!
@@ItsGoodintheWoods He did a baker tent once, too. Always wanted to try, but I have no space to do the work.
Dude, this is great! I've been following your instructions and am almost finished making this. Question: obviously, one side of the door is taped. How do you keep the other side down when you are inside the tent? Did you put some velcro on ther
That's awesome man! I haven't quite nailed that part down yet.....but what I have done works pretty well for me so far.....I put a grommet on the bottom corner of the lose edge of the door. I tie some rope to that and work it around the closest outer stake of the tent , and underneath the tent, into the inside of the tent. After you go inside the tent and close the door pull your rope tight and stake it into the ground. This has worked very well for me. I do plan on working something else out eventually,
When I camped in a snowstorm with this tent , all I did was close the door. I didn't secure it in anyway. It held a snow load and never once opened or let go! I was amazed. I intentionally left quite a bit of overhang on the door, and that helps it stay shut. The real reason for the large overhang is so i can control airflow......If I pull that door tight , but leave a gap between the door and tent to get in and out , the weather is blocked out due to the overlap, but fresh air gets in because of the gap I create. This has proved very useful more than once. You can manipulate that door to create more room as well All depends on the size of the gap you create. If the door is only 6" off the tent , thats good airflow and protection from weather, if you pull the door out 4" from the tent , it literally creates a bunch more room , at the cost of less protection. It's pretty slick! One of the things I really like about this build is the versatility of the door. You can make it as big or small as you like. If it's really nice out and you only want half a tent , no problem, pull up some stakes and open her up ! Super cold and want it buttoned up tight , not a problem! Nice options to have!
I hope I explained this well enough for you to understand. I have a hard time explaining thigs sometime . Please let me know if you have any more questions. I am happy to help any way I can. Please keep me posted on your tent! I am extremely excited that you are building one! I hope you are doing well through all the madness. All the best - Justin
I appreciate how clear and concise your demonstrations and instructions are without having us watch you cut, measure, erect....you keep my time investment to a minimum but I can easily replicate your instructions. Nice work.
Thank you! In every one of my videos I try to cut out as much as I can, but still tell the story I aim to tell. I know time is important. It is one of my primary goals to not waste anyones time.
I know everyone values their time different. But if I don't consider the footage important for the story, it doesn't make the cut.
I really appreciate your comment
Very helpful ideas , definitely useful for adding guyline points. Great Work!!!
Thank you! Those guy out points work very well
I made the tent and it worked great. Ice snow and heavy rain no leaking thanks great
VIDEO
That is awesome! You will get much use out of that tent! Thank you for letting me know you made one!
I can see it now, in 5 years, there's going to be a new outdoor equipment company, selling unique tipi hot tents made out of tarps, with a guy named Justin as it's CEO. Edit: That's a joke. Great job on the video. If i'm feeling creative enough, i'll keep this in mind if I ever decided to try and make a hot tent for my family.
LOL . That's funny. It's a fun project for sure . Thank you . You'll be happy with the tent if you make one .
You did pretty good. Neat idea, you did a pretty good job.
Thank you very much

'Far north bushcraft and survival' is an awsome channel,best way to learn is from the experienced ones. That said,you made an awsome tent/tipi/lavuu🕵️👍
They were the real deal for sure. I miss their channel
I’ve watch hundreds of these type videos and built shelters and such for years. This was a great video , don’t short yourself.
Thank you very much. Much appreciated
You did a good job, thank you for sharing 👍

100%
That was awesome man!

I didn't think it was vague, I thought you did an excellent job. Nice tent!!
Much appreciated . I guess there is always going to be the feeling of, I could have done better ... But the tent did come out great ! I'm very happy with it ! I hope you have a great weekend ! Thanks for the support ! - Justin
very nice video! Thank you for sharing! 🔥👌
Thank you. Much appreciated
Great job on the tipi. I saw Lonnie a long time ago. You did some mods I really appreciate. It will last as well as the One Tigris I purchased. And much bigger too
Yeah this thing is big! And rugged! The mods helped out quite a bit. I miss Far north bushcraft. Lonnie and Connie are the real deal. What One Tigris tent did you get? I just got their Rocdomus. I haven't used it yet, but I have set it up and went over it. There was a small tear in it that was easily fixed. Other than that, I think I really like the tent. Looking forward to using it. It is my first one tigris tent. Seems like a solid tent
@@ItsGoodintheWoods I have a smoky hut. And it’s really small. I think it’s 10 feet diameter and about 6 feet to the peak but it does warm up nice.
Don't you love DIY channels? Nothing like making something for yourself and saving money at the same time. I'm designing a viking tent and I've been getting a lot of great ideas from people like you. Thanks a bunch! new subscriber.
This was a very rewarding build. I still have it to this day! Very much worth the time and effort if you enjoy that sort of thing. Best of luk on your Viking tent build. Please keep me posted on the project. I enjoy hearing about projects of the sort. Thank you for subscribing to the channel! I appreciate your support
Your'e the man!

I freaking loved it. Super cool to learn. Thanks
Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it!
