I built and stayed in my own Monkey Hut for my first four Burns in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2022. They are surprisingly robust structures and provide good protection to whatever you put inside. Two 10' PVC poles joined in the center will give good headroom if the feet are placed about 12' apart. So, the floor tarp needs to be 12' wide and the roof tarp needs to be 20' wide. Length is usually something divisible by 5 so you can use 10' poles as ridge poles (I called them spines) cut in half between the ribs. The one modification I made on mine was to extend the ridge pole (spine) beyond the end hoop and bring it to the playa as another rib. I made connector joints from 1 1/2" PVC which were just over 3' in length (cut a 10' pipe in thirds. Don't waste things), so each side or end pole was inserted about 18" These connectors were NOT fixed. I passed a pin with washers and a cotter pin through two 3' sections of 1 1/2" PVC in the center, so they could spin and flex. Note: the 1" pipes will not fit tightly into a 1 1/2" pipe. Adding a single wrap of Duct tape will give you a reasonable fit that can be easily inserted and removed. YMMV. Adding an additional rib which extended from both otherwise open ends of the Monkey Hut did two important things. First, it provided some resistance to the entire structure laying over or leaning along it's length. Secondly, I used shade cloth on one half of the opening which prevented the eternal playa wind from blowing through and turning your Hut into a wind tunnel. It also provided a bit of an alcove for bikes at the entrance the same way a hiking tent often has a protected space for boots. While I pounded stakes into the ground to locate the feet, I'd probably use lag screws now. They are easier to insert and remove. Some protection will need to be provided around the sharp edges of the Hex head to prevent that from cracking the PVC. Also, be prepared to tie the whole thing down to playa by passing Mule Tape or similar over the roof tarp from side to side and end to end in a crisscross pattern. These should be tied to separate lags bolted into the ground. One last lesson learned: the poles will take on a curve after a week on Playa, so while they arrive straight, they will leave looking like bananas. It complicates storage and transportation a bit, but I used the same poles for 4 years in a row. Be brave. Be old school. Be Radically Self Sufficient. Be a Burner. Build your Burn, don't buy it.

Why did they burn it down?

You can also take the rental car shuttle to a stop nearby middletown and just cross the street over to get to the station. This is only ideal if you want to ride the green line. Plus the shuttle uses a gated service road so you aren't stuck in traffic. Plus it is free.

Won't stop scorpions...I am out...

it's a parody performance - something you often see at BM. they are playing with the idea of cultural appropriation. Although it's hard to tell if the people who made the performance are genuinely against C.A. and trying to teach people about it in a playful way, or if they are mocking the idea. But I suppose either way it might get some people to think about it who didn't before?

What tribe was Chad from, ya think? I think the Natives can handle their own policing.

I wish they showed the MTS vending machine near the information center in the terminals! You could pick up a Compass Card!

Maybe I missed the info of how long from the airport to the Santa Fe Station

I left my screwdriver in the Attic after installing the recessed lighting after following your instructions. do you know how I can remove the recessed lighting that I just installed so I can get my screwdriver? and no I don't have any access to the Attic

what size of tarp did you guys use? i'm going to be building one for Utah's regional burn. THANKS

Very nice!

The one dude at the beginning looked like Johnny Gale. Wonder what my good friend Dick Dale thinks about these new guys tying to play like him?

I got dizzy after watching this vid

This was cool!

Oh... they're going where Hertz buses used to go? I didn't know that!

Lame.

Hi Bill. Great video. I posted this on Facebook.

Did woman gets arrested?

Ugh. I hate San Diego's airport. It's so small and crowded.

totally rad man!!?

Stupid question but just want to verify, with this 6 inch can, you need to cut a 6 inch hole, correct? Or is it something different because of the trim piece, etc?

Great video!

Just wondering why you would install a Halo recessed can, and then a retrofit LED light? The retrofit LED lights are for places where you already have can lights installed. If you don't, you can get simple LED panel lights which can be wired up directly (with included driver) without messing with a can. Look for Lemonbest LED panel lights on Amazon and elsewhere....

Mods would include updating the 10’ schedule 40 PVC (ribs) from the old 3/4" up to the replacement 1" size which is recommended in the "how to" instructions (URLs in description). Last year I used 3/4" because it was what was available cheap from the used construction materials store. However, the structure started to become unstable under the strong playa winds. Because I mixed up the sizes that didn't tightly connect to the "X" , "T" and center spine PVC connectors it weakened everything. Next time I'll make sure I use the right sizes so there's a snug fit between all the PVC pipes and connectors. I may run the old 3/4" on the outside with the inside the 1" just to add extra strength. - I'd gladly help you at Burning Man assuming that I am going to be able to purchase a ticket for 2015. So far no luck.

Great stuff. I'm planning on a monkey hut over a geodesic dome (it just has too many parts), what are the strengthening mods you're thinking about?

First drink 100 cups of Cappuccino to get the job done quick.

Hi again I did my own video of landing in San Diego. I was very lucky to get the window seat because what happened was I was normally a early bird and normally had a stop over on Phoenix but when they pulled the phoenix plane and put us on a direct flight to San Diego it took me out of early bird "A" status so that I was with the C group almost the last one on the plane. When I saw a couple sitting there I was going to grab the middle seat until the lady gave me her window seat. I was HAPPY and it was a perfect seat on top of it. So I got all kinds of plane videos posted. On the way home I was early bird and sat by the window and filmed more.

what is he doing?

Hari bol!

Doesn't help a novice at all. Its just a comedy.

SoulDaddy55 have you ever heard The legendary Crossfires......???

wow...cool.. you landed here only a month ago I will be landing in San Diego in September. From seeing videos it looks like sitting on the left side of the plane gives the best landing view. I'm coming from Chicago.
