Of course my husband has to make everything himself and gets me involved whether I want to or not. But I must say it was fun making something together. Here's our tent.
My husband used conduit for the frame, used a tarp for the tent and stretchy cord with hooks to keep everything nice and snug. The mattress in the back is specially made for trucks. I had no idea there was such a thing.
We did have fun camping. My daughter didn't want to go. She said the tent was embarrassing. So me and my hubby got some quality time together. That's always nice.
Nice, I like it! I'm looking for ideas on making a truck tarp/tent like this myself, for me and my 2 kiddos.
ReplyDeleteNice, it looks great! I'm looking to make something similar for my truck, for when I take my kiddos camping.
ReplyDeletewhere did you get all the materials? and how did you make it? I am looking for one of these and truck tents are just so expensive. Was this relatively cheap?? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHi Heather,
ReplyDeleteAll the materials cost around $100. We bought all the materials from Home Depot. My husband used conduit pipes for the frame. He had to use a special tool to shape the pipes.
Do you know the dimensions of the tarp? It looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteRobert, I believe we uses a 16ft x 20ft tarp.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
