View Full Version : What is the best home-made shelter/tent design? David335 03-21-2007, 19:15 Same as title please leave links:) terrapin_too 03-21-2007, 19:27 Henry Shire's original. Full plans and directions here (http://www.tarptent.com/projects/tarpdesign.html), on the TarpTent site (under "Projects.") Skidsteer 03-21-2007, 19:36 Henry Shire's original. Full plans and directions here (http://www.tarptent.com/projects/tarpdesign.html), on the TarpTent site (under "Projects.") Yeah, that's probably the end of the discussion. Lots of good cottage industry shelters out there, but Henry gave one of his designs away. Pretty awesome. hopefulhiker 03-21-2007, 19:37 another vote for Henry Shires... Frolicking Dinosaurs 03-21-2007, 21:06 The tent mentioned above is great. I also like these modifications on Shires design - Jones (http://www.backpacking.net/makegear/jones-tent/index.html) and Jones II (http://www.backpacking.net/makegear/jones-tent2/jonestent2.pdf)tarptents.

Easy to sew, not expensive, and it has kept me dry. http://www.ray-way.com (http://www.ray-way.com/) Just Jeff 03-22-2007, 21:32 Headchange4u did a pretty good homemade Hennessy with removable bug net that changes for a ripstop nylon top cover for cold weather - that's a pretty impressive project. grysmn 03-29-2007, 14:16 Eagle Nest Outfitter Hammack ENO suits my style:sunninety seven cans of beer on the wall:banana:banana:banana |
