Anybody know of open source designs for tents? Specifically a lightweight 1 or 2 person tent.
@tulsi http://blog.openstructures.net/pages/os-tentbeds-ideas-city-detroit Does this work? May be a little small
@socalledunitedstates that is cool! I am specifically looking for something that could fit in a backpack though
@tulsi The proprietary design of Hennessy Hammocks (https://hennessyhammock.com/) is pretty easy to copy DIY. They advertise weight limits from 68-136kg (120-350lb) varying by model, but mine is on the low side of those ratings and easily holds me and a partner so I think those are safe ballpark estimates.
@tulsi tents I can't help with but bodging a tarp into something to keep the wind and rain off I can
