How To Make Quick & Easy Tent Pegs with a Machete!

Do you lose your tent pegs often or have you arrived at your favourite campsite and realised you are a bit short on stakes? This is the method we use to quickly craft a solution using fallen branches and a machete. Don’t like the regular chat? Skip ahead to the 3:45 min mark for the pegs.....but you will be missing out on seeing my pretty face if you do!..Hope our USA friends get that joke.. I came to appreciate how simple this solution is when I was on a very wet camping trip and did not want the rain to stop all the fun. I had a big poly tarp on the truck and lots of cord but no poles and pegs. It’s actually really fast to trim up 5 poles (bush sticks) and fashion 8 pegs using this method and I still use it when the rain or sun is getting the better of me. It is not the only method and I’m sure there are faster ones but I like how easy it is to cut the big splays in with a machete. I’m finding the heavy cuts using a small knife aggravate my tennis elbow injury but the gentle chipping with a machete is just fine. It’s easy to make these to suit. Big and long for heavy tents or camping on sand. Small pegs to suit a light fly or dome tent in gentle wind are fast to make. Nothing beats steel pegs in super hard or very rocky ground! If you really need to pound these pegs in, rest another block of wood on the end of the peg and batten it in with a club. If you pound above the guy rope cutaway, it is likely to chip out. Ray Mears has a great YouTube clip on crafting tent pegs using a small knife. It is well worth the view. Don’t forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you found this clip helpful!
