MAKE THIS - Waxed Canvas Hood - This might be the best piece of field gear that I have ever made.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

We do have (1) hood in stock at www.survivalhardwarellc.com first come first served. We will try to get some more up soon so if it is already gone, bookmark the page and check back often.

[@robertdaviso5277]

I am a scout leader. Was wondering where I could get the pattern? So the youth and I can make these.

[@WhiteManXRP]

hey man, would you be interested in making me a poncho? and are you able to do so?? just curious

[@xMrBlack]

I was kinda expecting a tutorial video. That woulda been cool.

[@lawrencegt2229]

Looks very cool but is devoid of instruction. We get the initial dire tions over material size then a lot of cryptic sewing machine shots. It would be helpful to have more instructions down in the description.

[@MorganScott82]

I wanted to like this video. I am inspired by this video. I would love to make one of these. But having watched it a half a dozen times now I do not feel equipped to as the title procliams "Make this" Other than the measurements of the initial cuts there is no instruction or even discussion of the construction methodology, pattern, or pattern drafting. and the footage of the process with like colored fabric on like colored fabric and matching thread color makes the footage of the construction difficult to follow. Near as I can tell the process is this: 1. Cut 1x 15"x60" piece and 3x 15"x15" pieces 2. Select a matching thread. 3. Cut a 6" Triangle off of two of the corners of one of the 15x15 pieces 4. Edge bind the edge left after cutting off those triangles with double fold bias tape. 5. ??? Several more difficult to follow steps. 8. Finished hood. I love the finished product. Would love to make one for myself. I have not been equipped to do that by this video, and am frustrated about that.

How to? See “Viking Hood Tutorial in under 4 Minutes.” Excellent.

[@delisavelez5153]

But you didn't show how to make it

[@eastonbelanger7292]

Underrated comment.

[@deplorablesecuritydevices]

Very cool! Just what I needed for my morning chores in the PNW.

[@robertdaviso5277]

I am a cubmaster trying to teach our youth various skills. I was wondering what pattern I could buy so the youth and myself could make these?

[@macaronitony4084]

Imma give this a go this winter!

[@thumperthumper5322]

That is awesome 👍 .. Semper Fi Brother.

[@flowerchild777]

Nice gear👍Fabulous dog🤗💖💖💖

[@timstoltz5791]

Another cool project video. Thanks guys!

[@MakersMovementDIY]

So much fun making stuff, we just can't get enough.

[@stuartrinker]

This is really cool. Would have come in handy this past early spring when the wet snow is falling off the trees.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

Yea, would be perfect for that.

[@stuartrinker]

I don’t normally dig to deep into the description. Thanks for mentioning us.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

No sweat.

[@ricdonato4328]

Turn on your Closed Captions! The CC icon bottom right of your video is grayed out. Many folks have hearing difficulties thus depend on the CC which you have turned off.

[@Tsumokai]

I'm new to sewing. Is there a pettern for this project? I'd really like to make one.

[@MichaelK.-xl2qk]

This is perfect to pair with a loose fitting impermeable pair of lederhosen and then gaiters over the boots. What this allows is for air to move freely around the legs and torso while shedding water. The hood then laps over the lederhosen, but allows planty of air exchange, keeping heat and perspiration from building up, while shedding 100% of water.

[@BreakingFreeOffGrid]

That’s awesome! Another great video!

[@MakersMovementDIY]

thank you

[@Calchick7]

beautiful job

[@MakersMovementDIY]

Thanks Cal.

[@87Sakiel]

Can you make another video with a full poncho making? Nive video thx!

[@coryallen7549]

What an awesome video brother. Yeah totally need one I'll follow the links.

[@KuzweKanfarms]

That's awesome

[@MakersMovementDIY]

Thank you.

[@Mogtepyigsoloth]

My experience with wearing rain gear tops and no bottoms is that the top gathers the water and puts it on your lower clothing. It's a path to hypothermia when your pants are soaked.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

This is more of a supplement in sketchy weather, not a one size fits all solution. It is great for snow sports, fishing, and limited exposure to inclimate weather or intermittent exposure.

[@Mogtepyigsoloth]

@@MakersMovementDIY I do like the general idea. I'm a former timber cruiser in the PNW, I've worked in horizontal rainstorms.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

@@Mogtepyigsoloth I'll bet, I'm on the Northern edge of Idaho so I can relate.

[@Mogtepyigsoloth]

@@MakersMovementDIY Yes, I could tell you are a neighbor. I hiked into St Joe lake last summer from the Hoodoo pass side... My old legs ain't what they used to be.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

@@Mogtepyigsoloth I went for a hike and lunch up on Long Mountain this morning with Angel and the pups. My legs are still holding up for now.

[@brianduffie8200]

good color should blend well

[@bulldawg6259]

I want one

[@justcommenting4981]

Is this called something specific? I find umbrellas to cumbersome and overly vulnerable to wind. Frequently a poncho is too large and difficult to get dry. A light waterproof version of this would be nice. I've tried looking up half cape, or half cloak/poncho. Unfortunately I'm not a sewer. Annoying how there is nothing to fulfill this space between full jacket and normal clothes for brief stints in the rain and wind. I see in medieval times they had this, but now it's only a novelty unless you can make it yourself.

[@scottmasson3336]

What weight of wax cotton did you use? TIA

[@paulkline1574]

Do you have a link for the edging?

[@geeaqeel5542]

Your wife is a lucky woman

[@ncdoc100]

Great build. I like how you cut the peak off the hood and the apex of the front panel. How much material did you cut off?

[@MakersMovementDIY]

Thanks for stopping by. It was just a guess, I folded it over until I thought it was enough, then stitched it on the fold and cut the remainder off.

[@GrumpyGrunt]

How much did that end up weighing, brother? If it's even close to the weight of my rain jacket, I might ditch it for one. Good shots of Bjorn too. Stay well up there. S/F

[@MakersMovementDIY]

not sure but its pretty light

[@richeyrich2203]

Rain jacket is more protective. It’s either a poncho or jacket. This hood is a suppliment

[@jameslast3192]

Great piece of kit but no actual description, tuition or pattn so no help at all.

[@KoalityofLife]

Nice, great video. Something like that would be great to have in my pack. :)

[@MakersMovementDIY]

I have had a wool one in my pack for a while but I'm really excited to replace it with waxed canvas.

[@KoalityofLife]

@@MakersMovementDIY Is the waxed canvas expensive? :)

[@MakersMovementDIY]

@@KoalityofLife it can be, anywhere from. 20 to 35 bucks a yard. One yard will make one hood with bag if the bolt is 60" which I think is pretty standard. Thinking of doing a video this summer on how to make a tin cloth the old fashioned way.

[@timstoltz5791]

@@MakersMovementDIY a DIY tin cloth video would be killer. I’ve been thinking about waxing my Carhartt bibs and jacket.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

@@timstoltz5791 It is sort of a warmer weather project and it is still cold here but it's on the list if we get the right time and conditions.

[@heathboeddeker5401]

Come on Man ya cheated by using the machine. Ya know Mrs. Angel would have hand sewed it all Mr. Dave lol.

[@MakersMovementDIY]

Light stuff like this is hard to hand stitch nicely.

[@richeyrich2203]

@@MakersMovementDIY also would have taken weeks

[@panioloprep8126]

I thought this was going to be a tutorial on how to make one. Then I scrolled down to ask ans it appears that you are sell not teaching?
