When most build A frames for outdoor tarp camping and survival shelters, they secure the frames with paracord or maybe bankline. I was inspired by a recent podcast of Atlantic Bushcraft Adventures where Robert mentioned that Ranger Bands can do almost anything. This got me to thinking, will they hold a frame together? I give that a try here and also try an idea I saw on Bushcraft USA where a guy used a bug net hammock as a ground bivy sack. Lets see if these two ideas work!
