    On the third emergency pullover, the other person got out in the worst rainstorm ever, and tied an abomination of dozens of simple overhand knots, on all four corners of the tarp, and it made it for the entire drive.

    The Roycroft pack gets better when you start with the tarp tied up like a drawstring purse (not necessarily a cord through the eyelets, but the shape like one). You then can tie the bunched up tarp part to the frames apex, and additionally fix the hanging purse part to the lower frame. To get a pack you can easily put down and pick up again, you'd use two shoulder straps (webbing or strips of cloth, hell, even pants legs would be more comfortable than cord) with a fixed loop that hooks on the lower tips of the frame. Whenever you want to put it down, you unhook the loops. Oriented after the Roman Furca, you can also add a long bar to the pack that goes over your shoulder, allowing you to put the load of your pack on the ground first, before taking it off (especially good for heavy loads). - A Bering pack might be worth a try too, it gives you a more closed package.

Every shot was a good shot that stuck right into that brick. I don't know what the material was, but we used to "karate chop" a pile of the unused bricks and they'd break, too, so they totally made us feel like Ninjas. We usually cut them into a simple 4 or 5 point star, and they worked great. Never thought about shooting balloons, but now I wish we had haha.

    When I did my OA Ordeal, we used Horseshoes. You take a tarp and lay it out with your sleeping bag on top. Put one change of clothes and your toiletries inside the sleeping bag and then roll it all up. Once it’s all the way rolled, tie ropes around the tube and bend it into a horseshoe, with rope bridging the two ends. You now have a backpack you can sling over your shoulder or carry around your head.

    Little tip if you don't have a lot of paracord, and aren't putting the full 550lb of weight on it - you can pull the core out of the cord, and it gives you (depending on the type or paracord) 4-5 extra lengths of cordage you can use.
    Really good for projects like this, where you're using relatively short pieces to tie corners on a structure or frame.

    The square knot is the single most useful thing I've ever learned. And I'm just a suburban dad-type, not a particularly outdoorsy guy.

    I learned how to do this in scouts! It's fun if your at summer camp and want to make a temporary structure for whatever, drying clothes, sitting down, pullups, whatever you need!
    Edit: I was talking about when they were doing lashings and frapping, I never had to make a backpack.

    I feel so bad for Brian's kids. There's a video on the internet of their dad taking off his pants to make a backpack. Even just the description of it is insane, but it doesn't even compare to the video

    I've also heard of this as a Yukon Pack or a Hudson Bay Pack. either way best investment you could make is in an old ALICE pack frame and straps, tie up the tarp into a packet before attaching it to the frame.

    You should totally do a video on different knot types. Also when cutting paracord you want to melt the ends to stop the inner strands pulling out.

    One note for your First Backpack: you would have wanted to wrap your first black cord around the base of your triangle a few times, as Murphy was jumping you could tell the tarp was sliding down and nothing but the horizontal wraps were keeping it up. Edit: at 15:30 the unsupported bottom decided it had enough.
    One way to do this is started by wrapping around the middle of the triangle a couple times, then on one side run it directly over the frame pole diagonally, to then draw it along the back of the tarp to the middle of the base of the frame over that pole along the belly of the pack back up to the middle of the other side, and doing this a few times weaving a thin 'V' holding the bottom of the backpack up.
    A note for your Pants Backpack: you will want to cinch the leg "straps" to the beltloops tighter than what you had on show, the paracord pulling on your shoulders with the weight of whatever you put in the pack will get quite painful real quickly! (for a similar example, if you have ever carried a gallon of milk in a plastic bag soon the plastic of the handles start cutting into your hands)

    I like it. Also you can use a long sleeve shirt or sweater for most this. The sleeve make an excelant set of "flappie doodles" and the mid-section will make a pocket. You can use water bottle strips for lashings as shawn by that awesome Russian guy.

    Jason: I have prepared and I intend to make a real effort at getting this endeavor as close to correct as possible.
    Brian: We don't have to do the exact same knots, in fact let's just do a butt load of garbage knots. And let's set them on fire because science. And instead of all this, I'm gonna take off my pants and make a sack out of those. And I'll sabotage your pack so mine is actually better. And then we're going to walk around while I'm wearing my pants on my back and your backpack is going to fall apart because I sabotaged it and I'll be in my underwear.

    An improvised backpack out of a pair of jeans, is a very clever idea. It seems like the most obvious and perfect item to use.

  • @michaelpitts3285
    @michaelpitts3285 3 года назад

    Self Reliance Outfitters has a good video on this on their channel. Also it would be a diagonal lashing and look up the mark II square lashing. You should also run the rope from the top over the front of the shoulder and down to the cross stick and tie it in the front.

    I already know how to make one of these.
    The Burlap Backpack can be crafted by dragging sticks onto an empty Burlap Courier Bag, thus creating this backpack. The resulting item can be broken down into materials once it's assembled but there is a chance that some of the materials will be destroyed.
