OldGreyEagle 5 Posted February 28, 2002 Share Posted February 28, 2002 Tripod to hold cooking pot Tripod to hold "dribble can" for hand washing Two spars lashed crosswise to two trees, one in front of the trees, one behind it. Dig a trench along parralel to the spars and you have a medium duty latrine Use two square lashings to make what would look like a horse "hitch rail" but hang strings with large hooks on them for a cup rack Link to post Share on other sites
little dove 10 Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Here are couple of good sites. The first has pics of over 70 pioneering projects. Gates, gadgets, etc.,etc. All downloadable, free. Also a book on cd "Fun with Rope & Spars", 165 pages, don't know how much. www.hurricanedistrict.org/pioneering.htm . The next has the above and how to build primative shelters and other things. www.scoutingresources.org.uk/pioneering_shelters.html I hope this helps, our boys have already built several of the projects and loved it. little dove Link to post Share on other sites
