Where did you get the sack?

[EconoChallenge]

The very first chair was made from a coffee bean sac I obtained from a local fair trade coffee shop. It makes an excellent chair and will also work as a hammock chair. Great way to try out the idea but heavy and if it gets wet ... wow is it heavy. If you would like a nylon version, just 86 grams, then send us a message on the channel. We make them and would love to send you one.

That is the best wilderness chair I have seen yet and no you would not have to spend much energy building it. The cloth would add very little to weight carried and if you were using a sack that sack could of course be used to also cary stuuf in. Who says one has to be miserable in a survival situation. None sense.

[EconoChallenge]

Well said. You have captured the spirit of the Econo Challenge.

you still got to drive to these spots you want to hike at

[EconoChallenge]

Also true. Many of the road we travel were originally laid out by lumber and mining companies. I don`t like the impact either activity has on the natural world but I do appreciate the work they did opening up pathways to the wild. I do drive many KM to reach the edge of the wilderness. But when I get there the car is parked and stays parked until I return ... on foot. You have to find your own balance ... I am still learning where that is for me.

Oh yeah, tons of them and a family of Raccoons. When the tree fell it took down about 4 more small trees, is that ok?

[EconoChallenge]

You make some good points. We do have plans to post an updated video with even more tips and tricks on how to use the chair.

[EconoChallenge]

Survival situations are for those who fail to plan and prepare. We are all about being comfortable in the wild with the least amount of kit. A concept that evolves and changes over time as we learn new skills. If I am ever in a survival situation you can be sure I have made a mistake.

[Katie Dundom]

just find a log and roll it up to the fire, the calories you burned making that chair would kill you in a survival situation, at least when people found your dead body they would know you tried tom survive, lounge chairs are to stay at home brother, survival situations call for bare essentials
