This video made me think of this community. Fixing a camping chair and stool with Tyvek is pretty inventive, as well as sewing a tent with the material!
Tape holds tyvek surprisingly well. It’ll rip the tyvek before it rips the tape. Although, if there’s the slightest breeze you won’t be sleeping. That shit is loud!
It’ll rip the tyvek before it rips the tape.
When there’s a 5mph breeze the tyvek rips and there’s no longer a tent. So, it’s a “tent” so long as one doesn’t expect it to actually expect it function as a reliable shelter.
I made one of these before. It was part of a joke I setup to hike trail magic to some AT thru’s. If someone shows up with this in a designated camping spot they’ll be met with laughter, then anger if they actually try to sleep in it.
Did you use an off-brand tyvek? And tucktape? People make sails out of tyvek because not ripping is one of its things.
We’re definitely thinking of different materials. Or, perhaps something has changed in a decade+.
