This is the Kelty Noah's Tarp 16 with two Kelty adjustable tarp poles. The tarp has been used on two trips and the poles on only one. Everything is in like new condition. Info on tarp: https://www.kelty.com/noahs-tarp/ (note the color difference. The one listed here is a dark khaki color called...

Bought this a little over a year ago. Have used it twice. It is an awesome sleeping pad. Super warm, super comfortable, super roomy. Like new condition. Includes pad + large "schnozzle" bag for inflation + storage bag + repair kit (unused). This is the long/wide size pad. Specs...

It would normally be in the toilet/shower tent when camp is set up. Alternatively, getting it mounted inside where it would slide out from the side or under the bed wouldn't be impossible with a little redesign.

I agree...unfortunately the barriers weren't as simple as "put down the pen and do something".

Wow, I can't believe it's been five years since I posted the original message! Sadly, no, I never have built this. I actually drug it all back out several months ago and started tinkering with ideas again. I still plan to, but as one other pointed out, life does have a way of getting in the way.

My personal reason: cause they are cheap. But, it was/is a "look" too for some.

Very nicely done! Your projects tend to grow in scope about like mine do :) Looking forward to how this turns out.

Just FYI...if you ever plan on taking it back apart, you might consider 4200. 5200 is major strong and almost impossible to remove the parts without damaging the pieces.

Just ordered canvas :wings: I'll be ordering steel end of next week, axle shortly thereafter. Still on the fence on what the final suspension will be. Probably use my old mini truck leafs at first just to get it mobile, but at some point, plan on independent of some sort. It's one of those...

Thanks LongJohn. That's who I had in mind. Heard lots of good stuff about them.
