Hi to you, sir or ..miss ;) youtuber
figurant : What? Say that again?
Get out ->[]
Today i will show you how to set up a tarp with a tent
...
no
set up a tent with a tarp
anyway let's go
So, in order to do this you need several utensils
a tarp (as you might figure)
some string
a knife or some scissors
some pegs (or stakes)
two pieces of wood
Before we can begin, i'll have a few advices for you :
1:make sure to have a flat soil
2:make sure that there is no roots on it
3:make sure that it is a clay soil (made of earth)...
Yeah, If it's not, you might have a hard time planting the pegs
Let us return to our sheep (back on topic)
...
The first step is to unfold the tarp (tarpaulin), but not completely (half folded)
advice : put your pegs by each side, it will spare you many useless round-trips
then you take these pegs and you stretch each side with it
take a stick around 2/2.30 meters long
and a string of approximately 50 cm
This is actually going to be the central pole.
So, when you take your marking point
check carefully that your tarp hits the ground
Do not try to make the node up high like this, it will get you nowhere and it will be harder.
Then you take your second string and make a double node where the previous node was made
You put the stick right in the middle
You take a tent peg
And here you go, your tent is done !
just kidding
You still need to plant the other pegs left
Afterwards, to finalise the work, and to prevent drafts in your tent
You take two string of about 1m50
You take this round
And make a double node
Now you take the string and hang it on the round in the middle
pull hard, make a node
Here you go, now you are protected from the wind !
All you need to do now is to take the last stick
put it at the bottom of your tent, in order to gain some ceiling height
A little advice here : take good care not to make a hole when planting the stick.
And here you go! Now your tent is done, congratz !
