    optimum one person natural shelter

    The best way is to use a small burner - cut a rectangular hole in your outer tarp, and sandwich the hole with 2 slightly larger pices of wood (or aluminium) glue and bolt together - then use a hole saw to make the flue hole. Ive even seen tarps with windows fitted in this way.... but for an...
