[@gooddayinbali]

Really nice sharing my friend

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Always a good thing to be able what was left over and use for another project. Thanks for the comment and hope you enjoy the channel.

[@NickandRachel]

Got the same chair I might be making one of those soon! Thanks

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Simple and easy to make from leftover tyvek

[@StepsbyKaatje]

I like this footprint! I got one that goes with the chair, but often don't take it because of the weight. I think this would be a lighter option! Have a great day ! Kaat

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Have a great day my friend! Hope this idea works out for you!

I first heard of this idea from a channel called " Its Good In The Woods " he used old tarp material, great idea. I made a couple out of Tyvek that work awesome, and did a short video of it, its an idea thats been around for a while.

[@MetroOnTheMove]

That video was awesome! I had some left over Tyvek and decided to make a few using a similar tactic to create this. Will check it out!

[@ItsGoodintheWoods]

Thank you Craig

@@ItsGoodintheWoods Your welcome brother !

[@MetroOnTheMove]

@@ItsGoodintheWoods This was not a rip on your tarp video my friend. Your tarp video was great! As Mark twain once said, “There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages.” Happy Friday!

Excellent tutorial Andy! A shame we need to do these work arounds or spend extra money to not have our chair sink into the ground but a great lightweight hack idea!

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Agreed! Can always use the Backpacking with Jason trick and put a log under your chair legs.

Great tutorial! You are the foremost authority on camp chairs and camp chair accessories! The “King of the Hill” you might say. Thanks!👍🏼

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Getting there with a little help from my friends!

[@ecttreker9816]

Good hack. Effective and best of all, inexpensive. 👍👍

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Hope this is helpful for you as no one like to sink in the ground around the campfire!

[@ItsGoodintheWoods]

Mine has been going strong for well over a year now, working on 2. A great diy hack, well worth the time. I hope you get a lot of use out of it. Thanks for the shout out on the idea

[@MetroOnTheMove]

You are an inspiration my friend! Keep up the great videos!

[@MetroOnTheMove]

@itsgoodinthewoods I added a link to your tarp video in the description my friend. Happy Friday!

[@MtnWanderer-TieDye-]

Oooo, I've been wanting to do this but using an X fashion (to reduce weight 😂). I like the safe place to throw the phone, etc. Appreciate the tutorial!

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Been using a groundsheet that has been cut down to put my cook kit / items on next to my chair and it’s been working out great! Thanks for watching!

[@ASTHECROWFLIESHIKING]

This is brilliant! Well done and easy to make. Love it! Going to do it with my chair. ✌️

[@SeniorHiker77]

Neato Andrew. I beats paying for one if it even available.

[@NicoleHikesalot]

Very innovative Andy ❤ that solves a very annoying issue. 👍

[@MetroOnTheMove]

This was inspired by It's Good in The Woods and what he did with a piece of tarp. Tyvek is less weight, so it made sense to me to create this. Hope you two are doing well.

[@FOLLOWINGWALKERSWORLD]

Great way to keep chair from sinking.

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Used some leftover tyvek to make this and it worked out!

[@UncleJoeHikes]

Handy-dandy! Nice!

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Gotta love Tyvek!

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Nice work, man. That will do the trick.

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Appreciate it! This is a great item for the trail to keep the chair from sinking in.

[@tangenttrails]

Tyvek. Great hack!🤔

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Had some left over tyvek and made a few items from it. Worked out great!

[@TimShelnut]

Pretty sweet need to do this for my REI chair! Thanks

[@MetroOnTheMove]

This should work great for your REI chair. Thanks for the comment and hope you enjoy the channel!

[@Doc_Watson]

Excellent! I was going to mention Justin's DIY hack but I see he commented and included his link in the description. I like how he was able to also use it as the chair case. Keep up the videos.

[@MetroOnTheMove]

One of the things I love about the backpacking community is that everyone shares ideas on KZbin. Everyone adds their own twist so we continue to learn and create new things. Thank you for the onging support my friend! Appreciate ya!

[@DCOutdoors]

Nice solution!

[@MetroOnTheMove]

You can do a lot with a little! Always nice to be able to reuse things for projects like this.

[@BosomBuddyCreations]

Good idea. I also used one of those bubble envelopes that Amazon uses, doubles as a sit pad too. Have also used a couple small flat rocks from the area and even a wide stick or chunk of bark from the immediate area. You have a healthy looking scalp by the way :)

[@MetroOnTheMove]

I like the envelope idea! The log trick works good too!

[@Caveman_OS_Hiking]

Nice tip Andy, I love doing tyvek projects.

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Even better the material was already available as scrap.

[@ervinslens]

Fantastic idea bud, this was really helpful! 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@MetroOnTheMove]

Using scrap material is always a plus!
