This badge bit (BB) is part of the PEP curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the wood badge in textiles.

In this project, you will make a traditional teepee.

Minimum requirements:
 - finished size will be at least 18 feet in diameter
 - frame will use poles you harvested
 - cover will be of natural material, such as heavy cotton or leather

To document completion of the BB, provide proof of the following as pics or video (< 2min):
 - Show and describe your pattern, materials, and tools.
 - Show harvesting and preparing the poles
 - Show making the teepee cover.
 - Show erecting the poles.
 - Show putting on the cover.
 - Show your completed teepee in way that documents the size (diameter).
 
The following resources will help you get started, but remember, to fulfill the requirements of this BB, you must use natural materials for your teepee.
