Danke mien lieber Sepp, wünsche Euch allen ein schönes Wochenende!!! LG Taro
Welcome back, I do miss your videos especially the winter overnighters.
Thanks for your support and your response, i'm also waiting for the snow but it seems to be very close, have a great week, Taro
Well done 👏
Thanks !!!!
Nice setup!
Thanks Jerry👍
Another great video!!
Thanks Bro 🙏👍
i love your videos.
Thanks so much John 🙏
That is a great design. I'm going to have to find a similar product to the German tarps in my country. I've learned some really useful things from your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Hope you‘ll find something, thanks for your response and your support 👍👍👍
Ive managed to get my hands on about 6 of these Zeltbahn. Great bit of shelter kit. From earlier manufactured to the late 1980s they are all excellent quality. Some of the best Zeltbahn out there that have not yet reached ridiculous collectors prices.
Thanks my friend, great to hear from you, they get slowly expensive here in Europe, I’ll response more in a week, I’m on the road and quite busy 👍
@@Taromovies Be safe/
Another great example of working smarter, not harder! Looking forward to seeing your tent heater. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much Jeff, have a great weekend 👍 Taro
Dankä Taro fürs Video! Andere schöne Location bisch gsi! Zältofe findi sehr cool, han gard es Video drüber postet! Lg us Züri!
Hoi Manu, merci fürs reinschauen, Deine Übernachtung sah sehr sehr gemütlich aus👍 bei mir gibst keinen Ofen zu sehen, ich bastel da selber was zusammen 😅 LG Taro
Hello Taro, thank you for making this video! I've owned two of these tarps, and I've always known I'm missing something. But after seeing this great video, I've ordered another tarp I was missing. Thank you again for this video, can't wait to try this shelter out.
Great to know that I could give some new inputs, with you lots of fun by trying it and many great times at the outdoors, take care, Taro
ich hab die gleichen. mit dieser art der aufstellung verschenkst aber viel platz. stellst du es so auf das vorne der eingang frei bleibt, kann ma es als hot tent zu zweit benutzen.
You bring it to the point 😎👍
Thanks 🙏 👍
i used a paint roller pole that extends
Long time no see
Thanks Dylan, now I'm back:-) thanks for your support, Taro
Excellent set up and outstanding instructions on how to set it up. Sadly here in the states our Military surplus stores are fading fast. Yes you can find them on the web but I like to see and feel the products before I buy. That's a nice jacket by the way. Take care, Al
I'm right with you on that
Thanks Al, I understand, I visit Germany about once a year and I call some friends before to organize what I need, luckily they know what Quality I expect, have a great weekend. Taro
Thank you!
Thanks for watching David 🙏
Hi Taro. Noch ein super Video. Tolle ideee und Mann kann auch ein Lgerfeuer benutzen. Bleib gesund. LG. Nigel.
Vielen Dank lieber Nigel, wish you a nice sunday
@@Taromovies You and yours too!
:) !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Beautiful forest! Great campsite! My favorite setup,...a teepee. Never seen this use of tarps before,...especially as a teepee. Thank you so much for sharing. :)!!!!!
Hi Bert, glad you like it👍 wish you a great weekend, Taro
being from new york city and never experiencing nature i appreciate your videos so much. you speak english very well and you show me nature halfway across the world. another great video
Thanks for your kind response Mike, words like that are a great motivation to carry on here on CZcams 👍 all the best, Taro
Haven't seen you in awhile, great video!
Thank you Tom
Very happy to have you making more videos Taro. I enjoy them very much. Very informative and well made. Thank you for taking the time to make them.
Trying my best to carry on :-) its only possible because of the feedback and the support from people like you, Thanks you! have a great week William, Taro
Nice build! Lookig forward to the heater build
Thank🙏 great to meet you my next video again 👍 all the best, Taro
I made a bed roll from one of these tarps and a Dutch army wool blanket.
Cool !!! I've done it in the past too with the swiss blankes and it works great, no problems with condensation!
That was a really neat spot to set up camp! Thanks for another great tutorial, my friend. Cheers.
Thanks for your kind comment David! Taro
Welcome back ❤
Thank you 🙏
@@Taromovies ❤
Thanks
Thanks to you for watching!
Loved it , can’t wait to try but here in USA 🇺🇸 I will have use a regular tarp thanks 🏕
Thanks so much for your kind comment, hope you and your's are well and you'll find something similar, wish you a great week, Taro
Nice.
Thank you 🙏
Nice video bro following here
Thank you!
It's great to see you again, Taro! You will always improve my mood ... :). The tarp is quite similar to the "polish lavu", that is quite popular on YT. I have it myself, but it's deadly heavy. However, very resistant and resistant to fire. Good health and all good my friend from the Czech Beskydy! Jiri :)
Hi Jiri, this version is a bit larger than the polish lavu but also quite heavy, not for long distance hiking but if you use a sled in winter or on a canoe trip or just being in the forest for bushcraftlife It could be worth to carry, thanks for your support over such a long time👍👍👍 all the best, Taro
Great setup! As usual, you explain very well. I always learn something. I really enjoy watching your videos! 👍
Always good to receive your kind response 👍👍👍 thanks
Good setup video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thanks Michael, have a great weekend 👍
You are the Master of Bushcraft all your video are very impressing all way looking for your next one Thank you Sir
Now that’s what I call a compliment😃👍 thanks so much for your kind words and your support, wish you only the best, Taro
Looking forward to next video about tent heater. Seen one person with a small fire, where the centre pole is (I think they had an external tripod, or maybe a ridge line- can’t remember, obviously they had it open at the top though). I was thinking about my firebox. Not many videos about these NVA tarps, even less, using them as a teepee/ Lavvu setup. Just got a third one for this purpose, I also have two Romanian ones, the oak leaf camo ones, think I’ll have to get another of those, shame they’ve no buttons, but I love the camo pattern!😁. I really like canvas tarps, have quite a few Russian Plash Palatkas also.
Interesting channel you have, have subscribed.
yes a little fire box could work but you have to be very ver carefully, hope you like my solution! thanks for your kind response and you sub, all the best, Taro
fair amount of weight there with 3 tarps plus your blanket or two and that's without water, food etc. It's a nice set up but I've carried 2 with a wool blanket and that's enough.
Cool vid.Ever Thought of doing nightvision animal filming? I'll bet you'd be good at it.I think it complementary to survival videos 👍
Thanks for your input Bill👍 put it on my to do list, all the best, Taro
Resembles a Lavuu nice setup…
Thanks Ben!! have a great weekend, Taro
Great setup Taro. Those cotton/canvas shelter halves from the different Militaries were pretty well thought out.
Nate
Absolutely my friend, they did a good job on it, probably the only good thing on the East German Army....LOL, have a great week Nate! Taro
Fantastic Taro, I seem to remember you made a shelter using 2 of those tarps which was small but looked great.
Yes Martin, great that you still remember, thanks for your great support 👍👍👍
Hey Taro,
mooie video met deze drie tarpen .. ik heb er maar EEN , en die gaat ook regelmatig mee op een day-hike ...
goed tegen een flinke regenbui , of zon !!
samen met een stoeltje beschermt tegen regen sneeuw en zonneschijn , hou van je video's !!
grtz Janneman
Ja, de afzonderlijke dekzeilen zijn ook zeer veelzijdig, wens je een goede zondag, Taro
Looks great Taro ,these days they have the one tigris tent
Imo,something old put in a new package.
I love your tent 👍
Thanks Steve, wish you a great weekend, Taro
Hehe, die Luxusbude 😏
Ja klar😃 warte mal ab wenn Du nächste Woche mein komplexes Heizungssystem darin siehst 😂 LG Taro
Hi🖐️ selbst 4k kommt nicht gegen das deep Winter dream Video an😉
Für dieses Video mit den Aufbau Tips gibt's natürlich auch einen 👉👍👈
Gruß Patrick
Hallo Patrik, hast absolut recht, es kommt nicht immer auf die Bildqualität an sondern auf den Inhalt, da CZcams doch von vielen auf einen grossen Bildschirm angeschaut, gebe ich diesen Hinweis😃 ja bei dem Wintervideo damals hat einfach alles gepasst👍 viele dank für Deinen Support übet so eine lange Zeit, LG Taro
Please make sure for EACH video, to ALWAYS provide equipment description and links for items used. It is very useful to source out the product ...or similar. In this case, where did you get the pole and the pegs? Thanks.
Thanks for your response, I do this sometimes i thought it's not relevant for this content, the pole and the pegs are from "MSR" kind regards, Taro
@@Taromovies Taro, You are the best! Many thanks!

Viele lieben Dank Frank und ein schönes Wochenende, LG Taro
@@Taromovies Gerne ! Danke schön...auch dir und deiner Familie ein schönes Wochenende 🙂 !
Great idea, but wouldnt it be easier to use 2 polish army tarps?
Thank you, I cannot compare it and they could be a bit easier to setup and maybe a bit lighter weight, but the polish version is quite a bit less room inside, take care, Taro
👍
👍👍👍👍
Thanks
Hallo Taro,
Schön gezeigt, toller Aufbau! Ich Frage mich nur gerade was das wiegt? War nicht eine NVA Zeltbahn so an die 1200g? Dann würde das ganze ja 3,6 Kilo wiegen!? Ganz schöner Klopper und wenn das dann noch im Regen nass wird bist du dann auf dem Rückweg bei bestimmt 5 kg. Sehe ich das richtig?
Gruss Detlef...
Hallo Detlef, Danke für Dein Feedback! Wie im Video gesagt gehe ich von einem Einzelgewicht von ca. 1.3kg aus (für die Aufnahmen hatte ich 4 Stk, dabei:-)
Für lange Touren ist das nur geeignet wenn man mit dem Kanu unterwegs ist oder im Winter einen Schlitten dabei hat. Auch muss man schauen das die Imprägnierung immer i.O. ist, sonst wird es bei Nässe wirklich schwer, Ich nehme oft ein bis 2 Stk. mit und mache dann ein Lavvu Tipi vorn offen. Aber zum Bushcraften sprich sich im Wald an einem Ort aufhalten ist es schon sehr cool, LG Taro
@@Taromovies 4 Stück! Wow das ist eine Hausnummer! Eine noch als Zeltboden? Zum Lagern mit Feuer einfach perfekt das Material. Bin mal auf deinen Zeltofen gespannt! Ich habe 2 Stück von den NVA Planen. Überlege ob ich mir nach deinem Video noch eine dritte bestelle.
Schön das du wieder was machst. Habe dich schon ne ganze Weile abonniert.
Ganz lieber Gruss aus dem Aargau, Detlef..
@@BushcraftNature Hallo Detlef, danke für Deinen Support, Abo natürlich auch von mir :-) LG aus OW, Taro
Im a German Scout 15 years old a d we have kind of the same "tents" we call them Kohte. If you want you can look a Video on CZcams how they look like.They are very similar to your tent but bigger. We often sleep from 3-5 People in one Kohte.
Many thanks for watching and your kind response. Yes i know the Kohte Tents (my Friend Ralph from Jurtenland sales them) and i've slept in them also. Really robust and durable, like also the option to have a open fire in it (of course if the size large enough). The only point is the weight, one part of four has about 3.5 kg (the size I was trying). The whole setup fits up to four people but to carry it alone on a hike is just a bit to heavy. Anyway I like the Kothe too! Wish you a great week, Taro
@@Taromovies yes your right.
But it is made for scouts and scouts always camp in groups so every body have to carry a small amount of the tent.
They are really cool and have some primitive tech in it.
As ab example we need 2 larger trees to build it up i think you know what im talking abt.
Great Taro, good to know! Now I must get one more of this tarps. The inside space, is it like the polish lavvu?
The coming tentheater is a clickbait to me, I can tell you that 😄
I cannot compare it but the last time i've seen the polish lavvu setup it was quite a bit smaller, hope you'll like my heater solution :-)
@@Taromovies aye, I get the impression that your pitch is larger. Good work bro!
Wow that is a great use for those tarps. Did each east German soldier carry 3 of the tarps? Could they be used as a rain coat also?
Thanks Joseph, yes one of them makes a perfect rain coat 👍 and no, that would be to heavy with all the other equipment, they carried only one, all the best, Taro
@@Taromovies if you put 4 tarps together would it be big enough for 4 soldiers to sleep in?
@@josephd27 yes, there is a setup with four of them which would be big enough for four people but not like a teepee
@@Taromovies how many of those tarps were you able to find?
@@josephd27 i visit Germany at least once a yes and i call some friends to organize what i need but I’ve you google NVA
Plane or NVA Zeltbahn you should find something
i tried polish lavuu it too small the nva i think i had 4 sections but i lost them
Yes Jasper, agree, I was surprised when I saw the polish lavuu the first time, is quite small compared to this one, thanks for watching and your response 👍
How water-resistant is it? I've seen a presentation of a German guy and he said that it's not so good. Which is troublesome because there's a lot of guys successfully testing other tarps (like Polish lavvu, Russian palatka) and these are dry to touch from the inside in a whole day rain
Thanks for watching, in my experience the is no difference between them all about water-resistant, the important point is the treatment, I think the production of the NVA Tarps stops over 30 years ago, so it depending from i where you get them, I’ve they are really unused the water-resistance is very good (of course not waterproof), but even if they get wet they will protect you very well from the elements, the problem they all kind of those military cotton tarps have is that they get very very heavy if they are wet, so if you want to have a high level of water resistant i recommend to use some treatment like you use for other textiles, hope that helps a little, all the best, Taro
@@Taromovies Thanks buddy. I would not touch it with anything else than the original treatment which used to be done with alum and one or two other chemicals. One of them may be vinegar or soap. Vinegar was probably the last bath to stabilize it. Alum is still used in textile industry for colouring fixation. Common chemicals for leather boots dont last. I was thinking about linseed oil but it could make it greasy, heavy and kinda forever dirty. Not to mention the formula for tin pants including wax, vasoline. Imagine carrying this around or wearing it. It would lose its thermal insulation too. Waxed boots tend to be stiff and cold even if they are dry
Grüzi Taro,
Welchen Durchmesser hat das Tipi?
VG aus Deutschland von Simon
Hoi Simon, mmmm gute Frage, hab ich um ehrlich zu sein nie nachgemessen, schätzte eine Länge ist ca. 230 cm und in der Breite (alles vom Eingang her gesehen) ca. 180 cm, hoffe das hilft, LG Taro
@@Taromovies Danke für die schnelle Rückmeldung. Werde es auf jeden Fall mal nachbauen. Sieht gemütlich aus. Ewig Glut und allzeit gut Pfad. 👍
It would be nice to see a video using Swiss army tarps :)
Unfortunately the Swiss 'zeltblache' is only 165x165 so the tipi is quite a bit smaller!
I'be been thinking about the Romanian or Russian plash-palatka, they measure 180x185, according to the descriptions on varusteleka.
@@alexandergutfeldt1144 the Romanian one doesn't have the buttons. I have one right here. You mave "have to" add zippers ;-)
Yes Alexander is right, thanks for watching, Taro
@@alexandergutfeldt1144 Danke:-)
@@couchcamperTM Thanks for you response!

Thank you!
Servus!
Ich vermute mal, daß Du neben der NVA Zeltbahn auch die Zeltbahn der Bundeswehr hast. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Du in einem Video mal beide Zeltbahnen gemeinsam vorstellst, beide aufbaust, miteinander vergleichst und uns dann die jeweiligen Vor- und Nachteile beider Zeltbahnen mitteilst. Das würde mich echt sehr freuen.
Und wenn Du das für mich machen würdest, verspreche ich Dir, Deinen Kanal zu abbonieren. Danke im Voraus und Grüße aus Niederbayern!
Hallo und vielen Dank fürs reinschauen und Deinen Kommentar, leider habe ich keine Zeltbahn der BW und somit auch keine Erfahrung damit, sind hier in der Schweiz auch nicht einfach zu beziehen, sorry, trotzdem LG Taro
Bitte, wie hoch ist das Zelt? Ist es mit den polnischen Lavvu zu vergleichen?
Hallo Ralf, die Zeltstange ist 1.40 Meter hoch, ich habe das polnische Lavvu mal bei einem Freund gesehen und hatte den Eindruck das es kleiner ist, direkt vergleichen konnte ich allerdings noch nicht, LG Taro
@@Taromovies danke, für deine rasche Antwort.
Zu deiner Info: polnisches Lavvu und auch das ungarische sind ALLE gleich hoch. Auch 140 cm. NUR das polnische hat mindestens 3 Größen, die nur in der Breite variieren und so manchmal anders erscheinen.
@@ralfrast7944 danke Ralf 👍
Is this how the East German soldiers did it or did you come up with this setup?
Thanks for watching and your response. I tried it out on my own but I don’t know if it was a kind of Army Standard
@@Taromovies ok, I’m just trying to learn how the East German soldiers did tbings
With a stove it's the ultimate masturcamping setup.
That's the real reason tarps are so expensive now. You could buy polish lavvu for $2 in the past. Now they are either gone or for $200 or more for size 3 tent, which is still smaller than this one IMO.
Yes those Tarps become more expensive and is harder to get some, thanks for your response 👍
In welcher Region ist das?
Zentralschweiz
@@Taromovies ok, danke. Ist eine grosse Region😀
@@Peter-der-gute-vegane-Hirte ja das stimmt, danke für Dein Verständnis 🙏
