Corporals Corner my grandfather raised me he was also navy vietnam era was on the henry w tucker and ss dehaven... But anyways i love your channel amd learn a lot ty for your service and for your vids sir!
i've been researching DIY pack frames on RUclips and yours is one of the simplest, most practical and (from what i can see) totally effective method of construction. nicely done! and thank you.
I know this is an old video, but what might be great is seeing you make an updated vid showing how you pack this frame with your tarp/cover and how you arrange kit items inside for max efficiency. As well as how you bind it and affix items crafted in the field, I.e, collapsible bucksaw… This would be very helpful for people who are planning on attending the intermediate/advanced course at the Pathfinder school… Since making/loading pack frames to carry gear seems to be an essential part of both courses. Merry Christmas, 2021, Corporal Kelly & a happy New Year.
Had a backpack frame disintegrate on me many miles from anywhere in high Sierra years ago. This knowledge would have saved me a lot of stress and may save a life in the future. Have a Merry Christmas and TYVM!
Merry Christmas CPL, I'm a new subscriber to the channel. All your vids are really well put together. Thank you. Your Vids on making water safe to drink are particularly useful and accurate (I'm a water purification expert in the Commercial Water Industry). I'm also a volunteer RAFAC Officer. Part of my role is teaching cadets (12-18 years olds) outdoor skills. Your vids have give me loads of new ideas in how to teach certain things. Keep up the good work, and thanks again. Al.
thats an awesome frame! i could also see the potential to add a small rack to the bottom of it not only to aid in carrying heavier loads but also giving the ability to tie this frame off to a tree and using it for a hunting chair or a little higher being a sort of toiletry stand for shaving/grooming purposes, im sure theres alot more but thats what popped up in my mind at the moment. anyways great video and awesome design! keep em coming corporal!
One reason I've kept my Kelty Super Tioga for the past 25 years. I've never been a fan of the big-bag internal frame packs. External frame is still lighter and more versatile. In a pinch I can pull the pack bags and use the frame for carrying game out of the woods.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. With these advanced years, not likely that I'll ever build one of either style, myself. That didn't stop me from enjoying and appreciating your how-to video, for 2 reasons. Teaching all the other folks who are more likely to try it for pleasure or need. And, if the need arises, I may be able to teach others to take advantage of your "ladder". Thank you for sharing. God Bless.
This type of info is why I watch your channel. Practical info. Well instructed. Easy to understand. And very applicable to situation's in real world situations. Very good. Merry Christmas.
Very useful, I just found your channel and really think you give great practical information, as well as interesting topics. Thanks for your service, thanks for posting and Merry Christmas to you and yours. I really need to brush up on my knots.
lm heavily into survival technique , l appreciate how many truly helpful videos you put out , l made up a day pack out of my hand bag its made of army green canvas and has everything but food l carry it with me so lm ready for anything , its heavy but l figure it will make me stronger . anyway thank you for your support of all of us that still have a ways to go in prepping for the future and all it has in store .
I enjoy your content and your delivery methods are OUTSTANDING! I just made the ladder pack out of bamboo as I live most of the time in Costa Rica. I did not do the square notches due to my concern about weakening the bamboo. Perhaps I should be using thicker bamboo. This is my first attempt at this pack so I may untie it and carve out square notches. I tested the process and it is easy enough to do but with one inch stock I open the core of the bamboo. Perhaps you can do a segment on the use of bamboo? Thanks for your service and your channel. Merry Christmas!!
Truly excellent and a field build extraordinaire. For firewood collecting, one can add a couple of cantilevered arms held by straps from top cross-member. Helps hold "sticks" and allows for more stable load. Let alone removable for latter use as pack frame. Thank you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!
Thanks, I believe this will help me also in building a frame of sorts to put on my ocean kayak, so I can turn it into a fishing kayak. I appreciate your videos very much!!!
I am gonna make one of these this year and hopefully get to use it. Thanks for the "outstanding" content Corporal and for your service your country! 🇺🇸
I was just thinking about this exact thing earlier today. Thanks for confirming for a writer that it's possible. Keep up the good work, you're an invaluable resource to us starting out, or who are like me and learning for other things.
Merry Christmas to you and your family! Thank you for your service from one Veteran to another. Thank you for the knowledge that you share. I always look forward to your videos. Have a prosperous and Happy New Year and be safe out there my friend. God Bless you and your family.
Saved this one for a personal xmas gift with the morning coffee before the heathen's rise!Merry Christmas and thanks for the effort and time put into your content!
Another great video, really appreciate all the work that goes into it. Happy Christmas to you and all your family from Hornsea, East Yorkshire in the UK. 🎄
Cool like that s okder vidio. Think try this but inly got medium aluce pack do got almost forty year old Adirondack jasper 37 40 bag but tie pionts lot cme aluminum frame with pins lot pins . Trying bring back service now need new straps for it . Old ones soft will bite shoulder if have full camp load out.
What is a good rule of thumb to decide the distance between the horizontal logs? Also, can you leave the bottom horizontal part a little wider to hang a sleeping bag on without defeating the purpose of distributing the weight?

The more you know..................Thanks for watching
Thanks for the video man. You're a great teacher, very clear and simple instructions.
In the early 70's in the boy scouts we made latter frame packs out of 3/4 Marin's plywood that were self standing, another great video thanks!
That's the best improvised frame I've seen awesome video.
really enjoyed the video. looks like it would be more comfortable than the triangle. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.
EXCELLENT AS ALWAYS!
YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!
THANK YOU CORPORAL KELLY!
