That looks perfect USSC. I have thought about exiting the chimney through the snap fasteners. I think that you might need some kind of stand off frame to keep the fabric away from the hot chimney,...
Very nice work USSurpluscamper. The ground sheet looks like the perfect thing. I use an australian jungle ground sheet but it only covers the sleeping area. They are a great fireside shelter with the...
I highly recommend it OAT. Like a little house in the woods.
So, I finally got out into the woods with my wall tent. The temps were down to just above freezing, so it gave me a chance to get the ammo can stove set up within the tent. I really liked the little...
Ha ha, groan..... Yeah, the canvas is very substantial compared with the silnylon that I am used to.
Thanks guys. I got the stove jack fitted and tested it out with the gas cylinder stove. Everything is working fine but I may use a smaller ammo can size stove as the cylinder stove puts out a...
Several months ago I bought a large canvas tarp from an auction house. It cost the equivalent of five pounds and was listed in the auction as a trampoline :innocent:
It's an old natural canvas...
Had a weird fall when cross country skiing and bit the end of my tongue off. Had to keep it packed with snow and kept putting snow in my mouth to try to stop the bleeding. When I arrived at the...
Here is the same modded design with a stove jack added for colder temps.

[QUOTE=-Tim-;127710]Reminiscent of the famous Bill Mason endorsed campfire tent,
Nice :)
Thanks Tim,
It does look like that now and has the same lie in front of the fireness about it. It's...
That's right OAT it's the canvas one. I got this one for $30 Australian, which is cheap for down here where everything is usually twice the price of other countries, including, unfortunately all army...
I got a friend of mine with a sewing machine to put some zips into the side section of one of the shelter halves that make up my US Army Pup tent. This way I can access by the side in it's regular...
I just thought I'd show off my new pack. As you can see it's in the canvas and leather category for us trad types. Its not too big and heavy but has attachment points on the top, bottom and side to...
Thanks Tigger, Here'a a bit of a closer look at the design. I used nutmeg in the channels.

Thanks headshot, the wood was some seasoned manna gum(Eukalyptus viminalis)
My wife asked if I could make her a ladle or something larger so she could use it as a serving spoon. As is often the case when using scrap wood, the design that you first have in mind gets altered...
Hi guys, just wondering if anybody knows where I could get an Italian Army mountain/alpine canvas backpack (the old canvas ones with the big side pockets)??

Also was wondering if any of...
Thanks, yes it may be but I have not found it to be.
See previous comments
Well yes, that has already been suggested as the outcome, and your comment is welcome. However, I have used this technique at least nine or ten times without that happening. Personally the method of...
That's the story of my life:innocent:
If you balance it out first, it's no more unstable than a single adjustable pot hanger, as it works on the same principle. But as already stated, best not to operate if you've had a few too many(like...
Spot on there, he he. All these suspended rigs are a bit of a disaster waiting to happen and, as they go, this one is tricky x 2. Sobriety is highly recommended for sure, perhaps a project to be used...
Not sure if most of you guys are familiar with this technique but it's another way of getting a couple of billys over the heat if you have a Y section of sapling available.

This is another vid that shows just how brash these guys can get. If you stay still long enough, they seem to just not see you anymore. They are also quite delicious. They are, like all Australian...
