Title: My 150$ tent
Post by: KDubs on March 07, 2025, 06:11:11 PM

 We the weather finally has been cooperating, snow is gone at it's time to put up my auction wall tent
  [ Invalid Attachment ]
 Cut the perimeter and ridge poles last month , all pine
 Not too hard to get up with one person but my wife helped so with two people it was a breeze .
 Now i need to find tune to perimeter poles, few inches too long.
 All in all pretty happy, should be fun at rendezvous next month.

If you got that wall tent for $150.00 you did very well!   :)  :applaud

In some circles it could be considered grand larceny. :laffing
Good job, Kevin.

I was quite shocked no one really was bidding on it. Started at 100$
 Certainly One of the better deals I've made.

Did a little rondy test run
 Dinner and dessert in my little Dutch oven.
 Tried out a few lanterns I made.

This is the other canvas I won with the wall tent.
 6x8.  6ft at the door
 Guessing it was a camp kitchen but I'm sure I could use it at rendezvous as a shelter.

Looks like a shower tent to me.
Lots of room for a lantern.
People taking showers at night put on a fun silhouette show for casual observers.  (Peeping Toms)  :applaud :applaud
Kind of like a drive in movie.
I think there might still be a few people in the club who might remember the show.
