Backpack frame - PEM BB traditional.sand.backpack

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Traditional Skills.

Carrying gear through the woods in your arms is fine, but if you have a lot of gear, it's a pain.  Let's build a back pack frame!

 
 

Here's one way to do it:


Minimum requirements:
  - Make a backpack frame with shoulder straps
  - Sized to fit your back
  - All connections are done with lashings or knots
  - This bb can only use materials that existed 200 years ago

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Most of the materials you're starting with
  - Pack frame midway through the build
  - Finished backpack frame
  - You wearing the backpack frame
