Good Stuff
by: Joker

Im thinking the lean to is looking pretty good but there is just 2 things missing. 1: a toilet and 2: a private place for me to bring my kiddies without disturbing anyone. catch my drift

long campfire
by: Anonymous

Lean to are great, but your campfire should be long narrow, about 2 foot wide so the heat could heat you whole body...dont you think?

Nice!
by: Will

It's looking great! I have just one critique however: on your fire pit, make it either a long-fire (what it sounds like), or move it closer to your head. Putting it in the middle is a common mistake, as your head doesn't often get heated enough. All in all, though, a golden shelter. Bravo!

Question
by: Richard

What do you mean about fits 8 on the bed people laying or standing on it? By the way it looks really good. I plan on posting some shelters I have built too just havent got around to taking any pics of them yet.
