The decorative loop is tied to one of the crossbars to hold it, so the big loop can be bent. It is kind of hard to bend the big loop alone. It is easier when someone helps you, he can pull the string while you bend it on top. And when it is finished, then it is left to dry. After drying it for two nights then it is taken down and is sewn.
String is used to sew it.
Holes are made first. This kind of toboggan is much better to use when moving camps, because it is much lighter.
