Dear Corporal, I hope this comment reaches you. I wanted to express how much I've been enjoying your older videos, including this one and others from a similar era. The techniques you demonstrate in these videos are exactly what I'm looking to learn for my upcoming Pathfinder School training. My goal is to make it to the morning of the Advanced Survival Class feeling confident, prepared, and ready to tackle any challenge. I was wondering if you have any other videos that could help me practice these techniques at different difficulty levels. Specifically, I'm interested in finding ways to practice skills like knot tying without always needing to be out in the wilderness. It would be great if you could show alternative methods or exercises that can be done at home or while on the go. Of course, I understand the importance of actually practicing in the bush, but having additional ways to reinforce these skills outside of those trips would be incredibly beneficial. I envision a sort of "workout list" format, where I could do repetitions of various knots like 10 bowlines and 10 arbor knots. This would allow me to practice and improve my skills even when I can't be in a wilderness setting. I apologize if my feedback seems inexperienced or lacking, but I genuinely appreciate your dedication to the Survival Community. Your videos have been a great source of inspiration and knowledge for me, and I eagerly look forward to any future content you create. Thank you for taking the time to read my message, and I wish you continued success. Please know that I will be avidly watching and supporting your videos. Respectfully, A Fellow Veteran

[@Stephen_Victor_Vilo]

Where did you bought that book sir? How much?

[@klawockkidd3426]

Great video. My 75 year old dad turned me onto your channel. He's retired Navy who served two tours in Vietnam.

[@recall5811]

Nice, Please share this video and my channel with others and thanks for watching

[@bandccoresohio]

Corporals Corner my grandfather raised me he was also navy vietnam era was on the henry w tucker and ss dehaven... But anyways i love your channel amd learn a lot ty for your service and for your vids sir!

[@bflowers6843]

@12:25 mark What are you doing? How did you tie the knots? What is the “bag/sack”? What is in the “bag/sack”?

[@tooterplumber1128]

really enjoyed the video. looks like it would be more comfortable than the triangle. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.

[@cjmedina28]

Happy Holidays, thanks for the video. I just watched the Roycroft pack frame a couple of days ago. Could you do a load out video with these frames?

[@oldprentonian7767]

Merry Christmas CPL, I'm a new subscriber to the channel. All your vids are really well put together. Thank you. Your Vids on making water safe to drink are particularly useful and accurate (I'm a water purification expert in the Commercial Water Industry). I'm also a volunteer RAFAC Officer. Part of my role is teaching cadets (12-18 years olds) outdoor skills. Your vids have give me loads of new ideas in how to teach certain things. Keep up the good work, and thanks again. Al.

[@Smootus]

Very useful, I just found your channel and really think you give great practical information, as well as interesting topics. Thanks for your service, thanks for posting and Merry Christmas to you and yours. I really need to brush up on my knots.

[@recall5811]

Thank you and thanks for watching

[@Lord_RavnFar_Tannerwise]

thats an awesome frame! i could also see the potential to add a small rack to the bottom of it not only to aid in carrying heavier loads but also giving the ability to tie this frame off to a tree and using it for a hunting chair or a little higher being a sort of toiletry stand for shaving/grooming purposes, im sure theres alot more but thats what popped up in my mind at the moment. anyways great video and awesome design! keep em coming corporal!

[@dannybeeson5084]

One reason I've kept my Kelty Super Tioga for the past 25 years. I've never been a fan of the big-bag internal frame packs. External frame is still lighter and more versatile. In a pinch I can pull the pack bags and use the frame for carrying game out of the woods.

[@josephanthony2865]

I know this is an old video, but what might be great is seeing you make an updated vid showing how you pack this frame with your tarp/cover and how you arrange kit items inside for max efficiency. As well as how you bind it and affix items crafted in the field, I.e, collapsible bucksaw… This would be very helpful for people who are planning on attending the intermediate/advanced course at the Pathfinder school… Since making/loading pack frames to carry gear seems to be an essential part of both courses. Merry Christmas, 2021, Corporal Kelly & a happy New Year.

[@clamum]

Thanks for the video man. You're a great teacher, very clear and simple instructions.

[@charleshoward9983]

Awsome improvised frame!. MERRY CHRISTMAS to you and yours.

[@Gamingwithgrandpa420]

Had a backpack frame disintegrate on me many miles from anywhere in high Sierra years ago. This knowledge would have saved me a lot of stress and may save a life in the future. Have a Merry Christmas and TYVM!

[@recall5811]

The more you know..................Thanks for watching

[@tzkent.5423]

It's awesome. But seems like More work than the triangle pack...

[@thetruthhershelcyphers]

Good video, Merry Christmas!

[@KevinCar-jx1jw]

That's the best improvised frame I've seen awesome video.

[@AlexT-md9df]

An LK35 pack would fit nicely on that frame!

[@connieback7577]

I’ve been wanting to buy an EF pack, now I want to make my own.

[@devils30hockey]

Merry Christmas My Brother Semper Fi

[@nicholasfernandez7720]

cool vid. thanks for the info, god bless, merry Christmas, and of course, semper fi

[@recall5811]

Thank you and thanks for watching

[@teeeff5179]

i've been researching DIY pack frames on KZbin and yours is one of the simplest, most practical and (from what i can see) totally effective method of construction. nicely done! and thank you.

[@soldierboyproductions477]

I remember wen I did this with scouts ps keep up the good work and merry Christmas

[@stevemulholland1532]

I enjoy your content and your delivery methods are OUTSTANDING! I just made the ladder pack out of bamboo as I live most of the time in Costa Rica. I did not do the square notches due to my concern about weakening the bamboo. Perhaps I should be using thicker bamboo. This is my first attempt at this pack so I may untie it and carve out square notches. I tested the process and it is easy enough to do but with one inch stock I open the core of the bamboo. Perhaps you can do a segment on the use of bamboo? Thanks for your service and your channel. Merry Christmas!!

[@BanZandar]

The great thing about the Ladder style frame is that it can hold more weight than the Roycroft frame.But if you want you can use Toggles on the Ladder Frame if you want but it is not needed.

[@DaveMarkowitz]

Nicely done and extremely well explained.

[@Eric-ew8jt]

Thanks Merry Christmas

[@keithvantassel947]

In the early 70's in the boy scouts we made latter frame packs out of 3/4 Marin's plywood that were self standing, another great video thanks!

[@torjones1701]

That was a great video! Well done with the tutorial, and thanks for sharing it! :) Merry Christmas!

[@frikkiesmit327]

Think i used bowlin to tighten my sleeping bag roll to insert easier into its bag.

[@Silarias]

I'll be making this for my Rover Ranger scouting award, so excited!

[@brucemorton13]

Excellent instruction and video. Wishing you and yours a very happy Christmas.

[@dangudgeon3833]

Another great video, just re-watched. As things in bushcraft/survival evolve, has this pack frame evolved for the intermediate and advanced class? If I practice from your video, will I be on the right track prepping for the intermediate class? Thanks, Dan

[@cb3391]

Would you make this with your harbor freight canvas bucket? Ty

[@hemansr3893]

Merry Christmas Shawn, to you & the little man!!!

[@lawrencetrujillo65]

With a couple of more notches for stability and pipe insulation for padding I can see this as interchangeable with a 5 gallon bucket for hauling rocks, mud, etc. when making a more permanent shelter. But, I suppose you could also wrap mule tape around to use as padding. The excess tape allows to hang a ready made bear bag. This is a damn-good frame for the common man. Thanks! Semper Fi, brother.

[@nicholaskelly6167]

Excellent video as usual, my friend. Hope you have a great Christmas.

[@HikeCamp]

Very instructive. Excellent video. Question: would paracord strands be sufficient for the lashing? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[@recall5811]

You can use any cordage that you desire, but the wider the cordage or rope the more comfortable it will be. thanks for watching

[@HikeCamp]

Thank you. Great channel! Very informative and enjoyable.

[@JavierClaussell]

Damn!! thats awesome. it looks very sturdy for sure, that bank line is also perfect for that lashing as it fits very nicely with a low profile. Thank you and Happy Holidays!! 👍🔥🎅

[@rickbloom1869]

For the lashing most any small stuff will do the job but IMHO tarred bank line or as I call it, seine twine is the best. For the shoulder straps you want as wide as you can get up to 2 inches or maybe a little more if you can work it out, so they don't dig into your shoulders.

[@kruppratte218]

That's pretty cool, 3x sections of branch cut to about a Cubit in length and 2x sections about a Yard in length basically then, that's neat.

[@oferbechor1579]

THANK YOU - Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@geoffclark2348]

I'm going to teach my grandkids this spring thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@zorrosish]

Have made the ladder style before but, never thought of notches .......great job!

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Merry Christmas to you and yours. With these advanced years, not likely that I'll ever build one of either style, myself. That didn't stop me from enjoying and appreciating your how-to video, for 2 reasons. Teaching all the other folks who are more likely to try it for pleasure or need. And, if the need arises, I may be able to teach others to take advantage of your "ladder". Thank you for sharing. God Bless.

[@walterburnett9297]

At 3:20, I believe that I'm seeing a food source. Looks like Hazel nuts on the ground.

[@mr.danfam]

Man this is perfect- I have an old large rucksack with no frame. I was just thinking that you probably had a video about making a frame. 👍

[@tleechapman6991]

Thank ya for the excellent video, your version is the one I’m using.

[@tomlynchsr2075]

Merry Christmas! Great channel, I always enjoy your videos

[@tomcatinaround]

This was outstanding. Any special reason the three rungs arent evenly spaced?

[@kruschpeter3161]

Thx corporal another useful video. 😉👍👊🇭🇺

[@rickbloom1869]

I sorta look at the roycroft frame as a lighter rucksack frame for lighter loads just like you pretty much said. Sorta reminiscent of one of those Swiss ruck sacks. Maybe a little more agile than the full ladder frame. The ladder frame is more like a flat bed truck. It will carry more weight more comfortably but a little more cumbersome and less agile.

[@Brandywine6969]

What is a good rule of thumb to decide the distance between the horizontal logs? Also, can you leave the bottom horizontal part a little wider to hang a sleeping bag on without defeating the purpose of distributing the weight?

[@Sydneywizard]

Well done mate. I don't think that there is one video of yours that I didn't learn something new. Have good and safe Christmas.

[@virginiacopeland108]

Thumbs up! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!! Clark

[@Bushcraftnbaseball]

Sweet. Very nice. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

[@Yotrymp]

Although the belt knot on the first design should keep the straps from slipping off the bottom of the frame, it seems like notches on the bottom branch for the straps would make the design even better.

[@robbevington1754]

good job

[@mikeneale2459]

EXCELLENT AS ALWAYS! YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST! THANK YOU CORPORAL KELLY!

[@bq7227]

Looks like a very different terrain than your other videos. You in the San Gabriel mountains?

[@BrosephRussell]

This one is really versatile if one has the time to make it like you said . Ill definitely do this one aswell great video

[@LetoAt77]

If you had to use paracord on the frame pack what kind of knot would you use? Thanks.

[@jc_one92]

Question...is it the same as the triangle?? What makes this one easier...looks like more work....

[@Toots807]

Thanks for the video. Odd to see no snow lol. almost a meter of snow up hear . I like the lashing you did. im going back to find the rope video now!

[@bobbyfurr8780]

Awesome frame... Thank you... Merry Christmas....

[@jamesyarbrough4777]

Awesome video my friend. I am going to give this a try

Triangular style pack frame

[@JohnDoe-ff2fc]

a folded poncho liner could be used to make it a bit more comfortable on your back

[@PierreaSweedieCat]

Why are the ladder "rungs" not spaced out evenly?

[@1975nicke]

Outstanding! Merry X-mas =)

[@urbanoutdoors3112]

Awesome frame. Will try out n haul some wood

I have learned a lot from this mastermind!!!

[@gm2407]

Excellent design I shall remember it.

[@davidpalmer9091]

Awesome video! Nice pack frame!

[@ibmoosed]

Nice work Good video I agree ladder frame

[@GL0RYaD347H]

Great video, but i have built both, roycroft is easiear and faster and more stable but harder to pack, ladedr style is harder to build sturdy, less stable (simple physics) easier to pack.

[@GL0RYaD347H]

ps greenwood shrinks a bit, if you make this pack as a long time bushcraft project let that wood sit up to a year in your living room before making those notches

[@rivahkillah]

Have to say, this doesn't look ergonomically comfortable ;-)

[@mymainmancave84]

That was well worth watching. Thanks

[@grayghost1031]

Outstanding!! Great video

Outstanding, out fucking standing

[@Rick-ph7uk]

You are an excellent teacher

[@thomasgold-1000]

Love that ladder style pack frame - big time! I wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and a healthy and successful 2018...

[@angeluberto2091]

Truly excellent and a field build extraordinaire. For firewood collecting, one can add a couple of cantilevered arms held by straps from top cross-member. Helps hold "sticks" and allows for more stable load. Let alone removable for latter use as pack frame. Thank you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you!

[@Traderjoe]

I always wondered about these. Should the wood be something that you feel pressing into you? In other words, is it supposed to hurt a little while transporting weight on it? Or, if it’s assembled right, Do you feel nothing, other than the weight of the load?

[@brianschroeder6106]

Top Notch for sure. I really enjoy your videos. I am just wondering how this frame would work with bamboo instead of solid branches? Thank you for all your hard work. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

[@michaeljones5395]

Merry Christmas to you and your family! Thank you for your service from one Veteran to another. Thank you for the knowledge that you share. I always look forward to your videos. Have a prosperous and Happy New Year and be safe out there my friend. God Bless you and your family.

Another great video, really appreciate all the work that goes into it. Happy Christmas to you and all your family from Hornsea, East Yorkshire in the UK. 🎄
