Basically, to make an impromptu wastebasket out of sticks, one will need to experiment and encounter failure at least some, probably significantly, unless one has learned to do this already. I am not planning to do it in a way I have learned.

Sticks in the woods have thickness, bendiness, etc. They can be combined into structures by weaving and bending them, but doing this takes care because they can break, depending on the kind of stick, the age, its dampness, its liveness, its size, etc.
