Video Transcription

are you guys remember what I use for this makeshift teepee it's an old 70s tent and the more I look at it the more it's a little too small for two people for my wife and I as I mean for one person if you fix it up a bit you'll be fine

an idea came to my head and I'm gonna try and do something else I want to try and build a prospector tent out of it now I won't look like exactly a prospector tent but I'll certainly try so first thing I have to do is take this guy apart don't go away you can bring that piece there come here bring them around a little bit tie it

just about make it longer been here four times like that then we'll put poop holes of both sides all right so now that the frame is done now we just eyeball it this is the easy part

fun parts going to be that tarp because remember that tarp is a other tarp with the old tent there's an old square type of tent now you might be thinking these poles are there just cover it like this and you know it would work with the tarp but actually a prospector tent is because if you put the tarp on top like this or the old tent it's gonna be hard for me to close you know to have a sealed up airtight enclosure you know what I mean Sall iProspect our tent the tent is inside and the exterior which is supposed to have some loops is tied to these poles now it's gonna be tied at the top keep it high and tight on both sides to keep some walls but that's going to be a great challenge with this but we'll see what we can do if it doesn't work we'll use this for something else right all right so this is going to be the end of this video it's a fail unless you have a lot of time in your hands and needles and we've got so and talents and all kinds of stuff this just will not work the tarp the tent obviously is made square it's completely not the same you know I try to eyeball it there was taking a chance but it's really off so and plus being old you can see some holes at certain places so we're just giving up on this project of the prospector tent but we're not giving up on this frame we're gonna have an idea I'll be doing something else but it's gonna have to be in another video so for now hope you guys had some fun sorry I couldn't finish it but hey failure is part of life so I've got all kinds of ideas will seal this probably just put a tarp over it and try and block the end maybe make a little fire pit I don't know but we'll see you stay tuned thanks for watching this is Mike from bushcraft partners bye
