How
to Lash a Tripod
Rating-«««««
This article teaches you how to
make a tripod. Tripods can be used for
hanging pots over a fire, smoking meat, a back rest, and shelters. Anything you can think of!
It says
that the tree poles you pick should be close in diameter, but is not
needed. Also make sure to only use
fallen dead wood so you leave as much of the forest intact as you can. Rope is needed to tie the wood together, so
make sure your rope is biodegradable like jute twine. If you are using something that is not
biodegradable make sure to bring it with you when you are done with your
tripod. The article then shows you how
to start tying the wood together. There
is a video on the website for a clear explanation if you are having trouble
following the pictures. After you are
finished tying it, all you have to do is turn the tree poles upright and spread
them apart and your tripod is done!
I would
recommend this to anyone going camping if they want to set a trap, make a
shelter, or hang a pot over a fire safely.
