Super cool and fun! If I was a kid and lived in your neighborhood I would be over to play every day!!! You have to camp out in it!!! I bet it would look so spectacular at night if it was lit from within. I hope that is the next video....
+Danielle Izzarelli my kid loved it, lol. It was for his birthday, so I think it got good use! If I do another one I'll definitely go nuts with lighting
I was in elementary school some kid beat me at the science fair I came in second place he built one of these and his hole project was on air pressure you got to remember this was like 3rd grade science and it was like 1982 but he used a box fan
I didn’t really start with measurements, I just picked up a large painting drop sheet and folded it over into a rectangular tube, then used a second drop sheet cut in half to make the end caps. I just measured the width of the end caps after my tube was folded up in front of me, I didn’t do any of it in advance
+CCDetecting and Scrapping LOVED it, lol! He and his friend also loved ripping holes in it later, but I think that's part of the fun. It's definitely a disposable kind of fort.
I need this to just hide from people and tell them I'll dye if I come out lol. Oh and did you say squirrel blower? I just got an image of squirrels dressed in sky diving attire and floating above it. :D
+Rebecca Valentine hahaha! I didn't want to be anywhere else while it was up. This was at my old house btw, I needed something to post this week so it was a good time to rummage through the vault.
BWAHAHA it looks like a big plastic bag that is about to roll away!! However you are stylin and proflin in your duds!! JK..no really can you breath in there?

I have such a long list of activities I would do in such a fort
+The Bearded Diver haha! I assure you, we made the most of it ;)
would make a great green house for food plants. Like a very large terrarium!!
Im going to make this and put my plants in it
That would be good for a movie night in the garden!

Fun :D from the outside it looks like an icecube ... cool hahaha
But can it sing? That's awesome!
You can use aluminum in it and iron a clothes iron and heat seal all that polyurethane together with no tape whatsoever
You could use water and bags to weight it down
and just like that the sun's out , T-shirt and shorts. no more snow. global warming is real. cool lil way to have a picnic without bugs
+journey_with _jay I should have mentioned it was older footage, in working on a project atm so it was a good time to use this
+thubprint ha I figured I was just being goofy. hoping your project is coming along smoothly
parents: don’t put plastic over your head 🤦♀️🤦♀️
What are the measurements, how much plastic sheet did you need?

This is great!
Thanks! I might re-do this video someday, I linked it to complete instructions on someone’s blog but the page got deleted
Make it out of black plastic and get a projector you have a planetarium. Also a box fan would work well with this.
That could be SO cool! I definitely wish I had a box fan at the time, the pedestal fan was a ton of extra effort lol
you are just AWESOME THUB
Nice fort bud, how did Wubb like it?

Dope outfit dude! Gotta get the full beard back into swing again, it suits you well.
+Vyro Cycle thanks man! The beard's coming along, but I do like to keep my trim up. Not trying to go full mountain man just yet.

+Sandy McGill lol!

+Charlotte Tipton lol! There was lots of air, you need to have the fan blowing in and some holes to let the pressure even out or the fan gets stressed
It looked great at the end....have fun!!
let me knw
