I honestly didn't think this would work,but you proved me wrong so good job.

For many types of tent loops just a large fender washer on the lag bolt would work, just put the bolt through the loop of the tent. A neoprene washer of similar OD can be used to keep the metal washer in place and as a cushion between the bolt and the ring.

They do work great, especially when you have 16 stakes to put in and take out. Saves time and ease

Verry userful demostration, thank you.

A short piece of chain on the lag screw works good

Really smart idea

Good video, thanks!

This is genius!!! Thank you for this video

Wow, nice. I'm looking for a way to better secure my vegetable trellises to the ground. This should work great.

If you're using tent stakes properly, the force to pull it straight out of the ground doesn't matter. You want to angle stakes so that they're in the ground at a right angle to the direction of force. That said, robust screws can be easier to get into and out of the ground, especially if you have an impact drill-driver. Nice DIY hook idea!

Agreed, I was looking at them in terms of them being easier to get into the ground with an impact gun, than a hammer in peg. But how they do when you hit the inevitable stone I always find with a tent peg, is the big question.

What a great video!!! Awesome and easy concept. I no longer have a vice, but think I can borrow one. very nice. Thank you! Subbed.

great idea! I’ll be trying to duplicate your lag screw stake idea for my 10x14 kodiak canvas tent. tired of hammering stakes!

Thanks appreciated

Awesome ty

Great idea with the lag bolts. Large diameter fender washers are an easy alternative to the S hook.

how about just a piece of flat bar bent at 90° and a hole drilled in each end.

Just remind me to pack my drill and 18v battery pack.

You'd be better packing your impact driver like shown in this video. Drill isn't going to cut it.

coach screw $1.25 each in a pack of 25, purpose made screw in tent pegs $1.13 in a pack of 15. Think I'll just buy the screw in tent pegs!

What do you do when the battery goes dead ?plug it into the nearby outlet on a tree hahahaha

A socket and a ratchet will also work pretty well.

No one’s going camping with a drill

Maybe if you camp in a trailer that's essentially a house. Overlanders take power tools with them all the time.

I do, and a blower that reverses as a vacuum to clean out the tent at the end of the camp

If you are worried about lagging something down you might want to start with your bench vise

Everyone wants to carry a cordless drill and socket when camping lol

Meanwhile animals under the ground get mangled then your drill battery dies unexpectedly too soon.

I think you have a few loose screws
