"Nordic" tipi [made in China] and matched stove = $4000 + Tune in to Far North Bushcraft and Survival and learn how to make this setup for less than $100... At the end of the day this sort of knowledge is priceless.

[@festadams9896]

I don't often make comments but credit where credit is due, it's great video and tutorial. Thank you for making and sharing with us.

[@fredthorne9692]

I don't comment too often, but I have say your videos are extremely informative, entertaining and just downright enjoyable. Keep 'em coming! God Bless.

[@blueskygoldensun6114]

Fred Thorne well said !!

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Very true!

[@WinStunSmith]

Definitely. Come spring, I’ll be trekking around North America. I’ll be using this project, and a few others, during my journey. He’s a cool cat.

[@the-glitch]

i don't comment or interact often on social media but honestly deserves a like a Sub and a comment... keep it up

[@glennmiller9768]

Hi Lonnie, not only is this video extremely instructive but it's also entertaining. I appreciate your detailed instructions and your calm demeanor. Will definitely share with my outdoor friends. Thanks for taking the time to post this.

[@neville3151]

The pace of the videos and the thoroughness make them easy to learn. If i had to guess, this is a man that has learned his life lessons the best way which is trial and error.

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

This is good stuff. And you didn't even say "tactical" even once! That's appreciated. :)

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

Thank you for your kind words. That was very tactical of you. :o)

[@robw748]

hahaha

[@rasalasad5315]

Lol

[@SpiritBear12]

I realize you did this years ago, but for future reference and any one else who might be reading this, you can use a line of glue just inside the line that you want to cut. You can use Elmer's glue, but that does take a while to dry. There is a product found in the sewing sections of fabric and craft stores and even some Walmarts called "Fray Check", it's a type of glue that does just that, it keeps fabrics from fraying. It's sort of like fast super glue. You can run that along your cut line and let it dry a few minutes before you cut. It's much faster than sewing and it really seals in the threads so they don't fray off. Also, for something as tough as fiber glass and Velcro where it's hard to push sewing pins through, get a box of paper clips and just clip the velcro where you want it. Or you can use the spring clothes pins like mini clamps to hold the velcro in place. If using paper clips do not forget to *remove* the paper clips before it gets to the needle! Do not sew over pins either if that's what you're using. If that needle strikes a pin, it can bend and get caught under the throat plate and cause a nasty jamb which can also throw off the timing of the machine ruining it. The needle could also break sending the sharp end right at your face! So remove pins before they reach the needle of the machine.

[@flowerchild777]

Wonderful comment. It's much appreciated

[@LeonTroutskiunplugged]

Hello Lonnie, Very well thought out series. My 21 yo daughter has overheard a couple of your videos and now watches them as well. That is truly priceless. You are very kind to share you knowledge in an accessible way,

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Mark Osborne Say high to your daughter from my wife and I. We are glad you folks are watching. I enjoy sharing these videos and you folks enjoy watching them. We are all winners in this deal. :o)

[@stephenredmond2606]

Thanks for you excellent three videos on making a tarp tent. I did training in Alaska in the 1970's while in the U.S. Army. I loved every minute of my time. I often wish to go back.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

My wife and i just got back from almost two weeks of staying in this tipi under some interesting conditions. The tipi held up well in even a wind storm that was blowing signs over and causing other damage in the towns of South East Alaska. The wind storm was so severe that the news was telling people to stay home and not go out if they did not have to. My wife and I had no idea of what we were in for since we had been out where there was no way to get any news. The wind storm was so severe in the middle of the night that we finally dropped the center pole and laid the tipi on top of us because the tipi was making so much racket slamming around that we were afraid the tipi tarp material was going to rip and shred. Once we laid the tipi down, we were able to get back to sleep. When we woke up later in the morning and the wind had abated somewhat, we then stood the pole back up and re-arrected the tipi. I was VERY impressed with the durability of the tipi.

[@dangunn6961]

Great videos. Life is all about smiles and cries. Or happiness and suffering. May you have many smiles and very few cries.

[@westtexasoutdoors8216]

I have seen EVERY video that you have made Lonnie, and let me tell you that you always leave me wanting more. Great job doing what you do my friend, please keep them coming.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+West Texas Outdoors Wow, ´every video huh. You have been busy. I appreciate you having viewed so many of my videos. There really is a lot of good info in some of my older videos that many of the newer viewers and subscribers are missing. Eventually if I ever run out of fresh topics to video, I will go back to th eoldies and start updating many of them. I do however have a list of over 180 video subjects yet to do. I seem to come up with subjects faster than I can video them.

[@stefanodogg280]

A scrap of window screen would also give you a bug free vent for warm weather, and let in light. Many thanks for these videos, very helpful

[@terryc47]

"Now speaking of the stove.... we've got the door wide open now.. reason being it just got to hot" 🤗🤗🤗 Words of success from a great bushman and master of DIY. Absolutely brilliant

[@oldtimerlee8820]

Thank you for this series. This is a doable project for someone like me. Limited budget, limited ability to deal with a heavy walled tent & "traditional" tent stove. FWIW..... I "see" another use beyond hunting camp or winter car camping. Here, we are subject to hurricanes in summer & ice storms in winter that take out the power. Sometimes for 2 weeks or more. This is economical enough to make, practice with it, and then store for use in the backyard when the grid goes down. A warm place to stay following an ice storm. A dry place to cook following either event. And an alternative to going to a crowded, noisy, shelter, if, heaven forbid, a storm damages the house. I know i'd rather be "camping" in my backyard, if I have the choice. About the only other material prep work that I can see, would be having a stash of dry wood. Much of the rest of the goods needed, could come from the house, itself. From blankets off the beds to cans of beans & soup from the pantry. (Folks with wells & grid down would have to add potable water & sanitation solutions. Ours is a Sawyer SP181, 5 gal bucket, water filter kit & a Luggable Loo 5 gal bucket toilet kit.) Again, thank you. Hope that others will see the full potential of what your series represents.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Oldtimer Lee You are welcome and thanks. Yes you are right. A shelter of this sort would be very do-able for an at home emergency. Good thinking.

[@TheSemtexCow]

Measure twice and cut once, Connie‘s as sharp as one of your knives. I love the logic you use to design your projects, experience shines through. Thanks both.

[@DrDennis]

Very cool three video's on your tipi/stove. Very cool ideas that dont cost alot. Great music too. Keep up the good work with your wife. God Bless.

hi loni.greetings to you and your lovely wife , from myself here in the UK . thanks for all the effort you have taken , in producing a wonderful tarp tent and posting how to do it ..i found it very interesting , and intend to make one myself . thanks for the inspiration .

[@austinhubble7142]

Use duct on the outline of the fabric when you cut to prevent fraying. Then you can roll edge and sew.

[@huronautodetailing]

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and experience!!

[@melanieharker9925]

Awesome work!! My husband and i take turns picking a situation and every weekend we head to a different spot just outside our little mountain town, both toddlers in hand and try to deal with what ever situation is happening... usually we only are allowed to take our 3 day bag, 2 hand guns and a rifle, 2 boxes of ammo, and each toddler gets a small back they have to carry of their own. were a little spoiled because we do take my large 4 wheeler and hubby's 2014 can-am commander side by side. it was his turn to come up with the situation and he didn't give me any notice, at 6 pm he called a "marshall law- evac" my self and two children had to get packed and out the door in 15 minutes, get the machines and kids loaded and running, gassed up and drive 35 miles through fairly deep mountain snow to get to a check point, we set up earlier for emergencies. i ran into a ton of problems but the kids and i got out okay, when i made it to check point 1, i met Quinn there who then told me.. i have 1 hour till sunset... my 2 year old was on my machine and he had my 5 year old. situation has changed.: my son and husband never made it to the check point. 1 hour till dark, with at least 25 minutes of driving left before getting to our safe zone. the SXS carries most of the gear so joey and i had what i was able to quickly throw on my wheeler before leaving home. The one thing i had regretted leaving behind most... the cold weather sleeping bag. Joey and i froze our asses off in the high end of the uinta Mountains this weekend. it rained strait for the last three days. theres still 2 or 3 ft of snow up there even more in some places. and we had to do it without my husband and 5 year old. he was playing out the same situation in a camp west of mine, but much too far to have any kind of communication. i spent 4 hours throwing together the most pathetic little lean too over a hammock i had ever seen in my life. kept us dry... kinda. Now that i have found ur vids, im going to be busy this week with my little wheeler tarp.. and next week he is gonna be so impressed with this one when i get to whip it out. :) thanks so much. wish i would have seen it earlier lol.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Melanie Harker That sounds like an awesome excersize and one that will definitely teach one where the weak points in preparation and planning are.

[@barbhayes5613]

Incredibly well thought-out. Great imstructional video.

[@margaretgibson7063]

Perfect project. Thank you Connie and Lonnie.

[@arcticpara7775]

Thanks alot Lonnie. i Miss Alaska when i watch your videos

[@stuarthaldridge]

Thank you for putting up this video. I have my teepee made and was looking for this to see how you did the stove jack. Exactly what I was looking for. Much appreciated!

[@walterpalmer2749]

Yes, this is the video I missed. thanks. Hey, this is good stuff and inventive. Clever !! A larger square (rolled up to carry or stored inside your stove) might be sewn to be placed under your stove for safety reasons.

[@cmanofthewoodscentralus3217]

Lonnie, Great job, and as you know I have been waiting for this. You have really given a lot of thought to this whole project and I am sure you are right proud of it. I will now wait till you get this out during the Winter and put to good use. In the mean time I am going to start making one for my self. Thanks.

[@Standswithabeer]

I'm just blown away...this is terrific! Most excellent work...Thank you. :)

[@john197187]

I love the hot tent great work keep it going loving the outdoors

[@aaronwinter447]

Really enjoy Lonnie's building things. This and the galvanized ductwork box wood stove he made are just great. Really great alternatives to buying expensive titanium stove since I'm not sure if I will use them much. I can start here and then buy something really nice if I find I use it often.

[@brucewindorski332]

Thanks for the vids.. Have already started building one for a late season trapping cabin. I appreciate all your videos. Keep them coming.

[@michellenc1237]

thank you so much for these vids. my husband and I were planning on buying a new tent, a hot tent, and a stove, but we have so many other items we are wanting to upgrade and purchase we have decided to try to make the tent and stove our selves via your vids. what a blessing to have found your channel, we truly appreciate it. have a beautiful day

[@ronjohnsonoutdoors339]

Awesome job, Lonnie. Such a pleasure watching a genius at work. And my wife, who doesn't give a hoot or a holler about woodsy stuff, likes your videos too, because of the sound and tone of your voice. She compares you to the actor Sam Elliott, and from her that is high praise indeed! LOL.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Ron Johnson "Genius" lol I have been called a lot of things but I don't get called *that* very often. Wow "Sam Elliott". My wife and I like some of the westerns he is in. We have one DVD movie with him in it where he plays a park ranger or something. We enjoy that movie as well.

Great build. Thank you both for sharing.

[@jerryfuller2423]

Excellent! Thanks for letting us learn with you!

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

Love your videos, I probably said in the stove building one, how happy I was to see a stove I can build (I can do the little rocket/hobo stoves) as I'm going to need one in the first stages of building my cabin in Scotland, to keep warm and heat water/food on. The lack of welding is what's made all the difference. I am ok with drills and doing a bit of woodwork but welding isn't something I can see myself learning at this late stage. (I couldn't afford the tools either...we've got a portable chainsaw mill and I have the basics that will be needed to build the cabin proper, as I am starting with a kit build barn type cabin but need to add on at least one room which is bigger than the kit build to accommodate living space as I eventually want to get a cooking wood stove with the oven bit. I also want solar as I'm a good mile and a half off grid and don't want to be on grid at all. Thanks for posting. I think a lot of people are downsizing and its not just in the wilderness that these skills would come in handy. I just wish some of the local councils and government would see the sense in the tiny house movement for homeless people. If they were taught how to build tiny houses and utilise skills such as building woodstoves, homelessness could be dealt with and give people a bit of dignity back by helping to build their own places. All the council would have to do is allocate space (government grants for solar could be pooled and put towards a central energy bank and shipping pallets could be used for building and heating). Personally I taught my kids wilderness survival and how to keep warm, build shelters, light fires using birch bark and pine resin etc. The world needs to relearn how to work WITH the planet, not against it and perhaps we may just end up having a future after all. Thanks for posting. .I always tell anyone I know who is interested in becoming more eco friendly to watch channels I like so I will share (and more and more are coming around to living more simply). x

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Anne Anderson (Foxiepaws) Good luck with your project and hope it goes well for you. My wife and I have a small 12 X 16 feet remote off grid cabin and we love it. We don't live there but use it only recreationally right now. It has solar power that we use to power 3 L.E.D. lights as well as charging of our phones and tablets.

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

***** Thanks for your nice reply. Your cabin and the tents and stuff look wonderful. I hope mine turns out as well as yours has.. I'm still catching up with your videos and enjoying them greatly.

[@sharperprospecting6980]

Sounds idilick. im ofen up in scotland camping/prospecting.

[@tylorchaffey9990]

You would be surprised how easy it is to weld. The cheap starter mig welders are a great way to learn.. although the slightly more expensive Lincoln or Hobart courterpart would be optimal. Anyone can tac weld. With some trial and error an old dog can learn how to lay some nice beads . Don't be scared to give it a try, less then $500 CAD you could have an efficient set up, could even get started for $200 or less.

[@sherrymuzykazekestravels6793]

[@therealgirlinthewoods]

I ordered my tarp and will be making one soon! Thanks so much for the great videos on this topic and I can't wait to make and use my own hot tent! There's nothing like a little heat in a winter camping trip to make it sooooo much more enjoyable- and without emptying your bank account!

[@deedubbs4412]

Thank you for making the video!! I have been wanting to do something like this for a while so I could actually move around in the field without freezing to death. (Canvas tent is too heavy and expensive) It's nice to see a REAL mountain man doing far N videos!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Dee Dubbs "Real Mountain man" lol I'll accept that as a compliment. Yeah this tipi is awesome even if I do say so myself. :o) I am really enjoying having it. Connie and I both are very much looking forward to using this winter here in South Central Alaska. Good luck on your project and hope that it works as well for you as ours does for us.

[@deedubbs4412]

+Far North Bushcraft And Survival Definitely a compliment - First channel I have ever subscribed too - I sent a link to your channel to the rest of my unit to review and study. We are all military guys, and the spiky haired civilian teenagers who are on a walk outside the city trying to teach a wilderness life skill is often hard for us to take seriously. Good knowledge is irreplaceable - being the only piece of equipment that will never wear out or break, and weighs nothing - these skills you are so kind to teach will endure long after the best equipment has failed. I Haven't been able to watch the entire channel yet, but I am working on it. Brilliant idea, solid design, and flawless execution on the tent as well as the stove. When your tarp wears out, you can grab any membrane, cut a similar geometry, sew on some velcro, and you have a whole new setup -The rock bundled inside the roof point of the shelter with a rope tied around the outside to hold it up is a very handy option as well - saves having to cut a pole every night if you are taking the old heel-toe express. Do keep making videos - They are some of the best fieldcraft material on youtube. Stay warm this winter, and stay a step ahead of the weather!

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+Dee Dubbs Be sure and tell all your buddies Howdy from Connie and I. Thanks to all of you for being there to protect our freedoms. Yeah once the tarp wears out it is easily and rather inexpensively replaced. That Gorilla tape can go a long ways in repairing rips or holes that might happen to the tarp as well. The shelter should last quite a while and when it does poop out it is easily replaced.

[@Mikeb8134]

I watch your videos on 2x speed and love them. Thank you for taking the time to make them.

[@lawriegraney9929]

[@goodbonezz1289]

Wow, what a great video. Thank you!

[@kademan13]

This fantastic trio of videos has been a boon in my early hiking adventures. I am a very hands on guy, I'd rather make something than buy it. I have always used tarp tents so turning one into a tipi was just an obvious evolution. I used a larger 16x20' tarp so it can hold me and 3 friends. At first I didn't think I'd make the stove too, but after watching some more videos on youtube I got the idea of building an ALICE frame to accompany it. With the empty stove hooked onto my frame I can use it to carry supplies as a sort of dual purpose backpack. The stove, stove pipe (kni-co), tent and other supplies came out to be about 60 pounds, which I thought was pretty reasonable for a 4 person, heated tent. Thanks a ton, Lonnie!

[@johnlorenze3222]

Second time watching this one. Reason being, I just found a welding blanket locally and this stove jack is becoming a reality for me very soon. Thank you for you detailed instructions.

[@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival]

+parkerbrothers75 Good luck with it. i hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine. Don't tell anyone but I am almost looking forward to winter so I can get out and do some camping in an easily set up hot tent. The last hot tent thatI had was a 12 X 14 heavy duty custom made canvas wall tent that literally weighed 80 pounds. That was just too big and heavy for me to take out and set up myself for a couple night stay.
