I'm comfortably carrying about 30 pounds in my camp chuck box, an odd shape for a backpack, on the Roycraft frame. This three-stick external pack frame is a versatile tool for carrying light or heavy loads.

I mentioned two lashing tutorials you may want to watch to lash the frame:
Square Lashing ~ youtube.com/watch?v=dIEvCR-wcbw
Tripod Lashing ~ youtube.com/watch?v=WfCOXargTII

Here's the how-to on building this frame if you're interested in a blog format: survivalsherpa.wordpress.com/2015/10/18/how-to-improvise-and-use-a-three-stick-roycroft-pack-frame
