SAVE YOURSELF MONEY! Oex Tent & tarp convention into a winter hot tent.

I converted my oex Expedition tarp by fixed in place a stove jack cover for a hot tent stove pipe.

Your channel is growing because you're doing a good job buddy you explain everything in a way that people understand and make it enjoyable to watch long may it continue

[@IvanDP1967]

Only stumbled across this video recently, and it gave me another idea. Instead of a stove jack in the tarp, we have the stove at the edge of the tarp with the chimney outside of it, or a small firepit set up just outside the tarp. With an almost identical windblock behind it, and a conventional windbreak to shield us from the wind, it makes an excellent sheltered outdoor seating area for the colder nights. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@joshrussell4081]

We love you mate, a nice genuine and passionate bloke sharing his adventures and knowledge on the KZbin space

[@lifesahobby]

I brought a lad camping last year and he brought a lovely candle thing that radiated light and heat. It's a nice idea to have a fire near you . I'd always be worried about something setting the whole place on fire . Lovely video mate , thanks for the inspiration

[@OldNavajoTricks]

Uco candle lantern maybe?

[@lifesahobby]

@@OldNavajoTricks old can of sweet corn with a few holes drilled into it with a baby candle .. sufficient to keep the front of the tent open all night .

[@OldNavajoTricks]

Cool, I like made stuff 👍

[@georgecooke5639]

We subscribe because of you mate!! You deserve every success 👍 here’s to 100k. For me, I really like the “have a go” mindset which is what camping/outdoors is all about

[@daveedwards6567]

Hay Dan think about getting yourself some thermometers then when you come up with ideas people can see the temperature difference thanks great video 👍

[@Adventurer_Dave]

Putting a pair of trekking poles in the outer corners will help stabilise the setup

[@beardinthewild]

Cracking idea Dan ! Loads of options now with that hot tarp !! 😀

[@WiltshireMan]

Nice idea Dan, I did something like this years ago. Nowadays I prefer to keep my stove inside the hot tent:)

[@sandycummings7972]

New subscriber Love your honesty,and conversation. All the best from an expat living in Canada

[@Campingandcookingfamily]

Thanks Dan. I have been looking into a hot tent for ages. I love this set up!!

[@Andy_ATB]

I have to say, that's some good thinking......Nice one!!

[@rtk3543]

Excellent idea Dan, will work a treat.

[@mart872uk]

I suppose you could use the One Tigris hammock tent with stove jacks already fitted . But use the tent as an tarp with your sleeping tent . With the sides it would be stable in the wet and wind .

[@MALLY_DAGS_TV]

Love this video Dan, winter is coming ❄️ ❄️❄️❄️

[@dalepascall]

Top lad, great advice and basic skills for the novice or pro camping myself kids and partner have loved camping over the years but now there 18 and 20 they much prefer a glamping camping experience now but still in the family tent lol WiFi digital TV electric heating and air chairs, and beds. The partners added a new vital nessasity too. "The TV Guide" 🤣👍

[@paulmckeown2423]

Smashing idea nice job 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@systemSkynet]

Brilliant. I was looking into hot tents and stoves. All I need now is a stove and a heat protecting shield for the tarp. Proper saved me hundreds of green queens this idea

[@lardyguts2]

backwoods bungalow would be great for that

[@reginaldshannon4220]

Totally awesome well done dan

[@paulclarke7991]

BRILLIANT IDEA MATE 😁👍

[@henryporter5466]

I have doing this on family camps for about 20 years using an old ammo box stove that I made. Beats cooking on a gas stove any day of the week.

[@MoreThanJustaCleaner]

You could put a small wood burner stove fan on top and direct the heat into the tent more 👍

[@thebarefootyeti912]

Necessity is the mother of invention. Excellent. I reckon a silver-faced tarp would reflect more heat back into the space - much like the stove reflector has.

[@skookumjack]

That's a nice idea 💡 I'm not going to suggest modifications to it, as I would expect to back up them with practical experience which I have none. .. So I'm sure you will expand on this, and pass on your wisdom. Great content, keep it up !

[@RootsLion]

giant sheild behind d stove star idea wat a set up lol

[@slickwillie3376]

Interesting. Something I've been wondering about is this: Is there a way to replace the stove and stovepipe with some sort of shroud with a spark arrestor? That is, say build a normal camp fire, then place the shroud over it with a spark arrestor or metal screen on top, to have basically a sparkless campfire? To me, this would be an advantage because it would increase the safety to prevent forrest fires in the case of just having a campfire away from the tent, or it might even open up some uses with special tarp setups.

[@grahammccleary7927]

I have the oex foxx 1 v2 and the tarp addition has given me a great idea for additional space. Cheers bro 👌🏼

[@patrickevans8940]

Excellent idea Dan great set up

[@lewisgardner1660]

That is a very good set up Dan, it would be great on a frosty night.

[@theMisadventuresofaLittleWolf]

great idea Dan. ideal for when its not quite cold enough to have the stove in the tent.Cheers.

[@leonardmcdermott7703]

Very ingenious of you Dan well done. Now i want to convert my Vango Hurricane Alpha.

[@twintwotastic3743]

Dependant on your tent a Vango gear store makes a nice additional area for cooking in, no idea about trying to fit a stove in there though. For me I opted for the 2 tent approach, a cheap hot tent for a warm area & a small 1 person tent for sleeping in.

[@superseacrow9463]

I had this idea. but I was way too stingy as a Yorkshireman to try it in case it went wrong. Glad you did Dan. Now I can do it with a DD tarp knowing you've been a pioneer to Yorkshire stinginess. Go Dan!!!! prove those doubters wrong. Thanks dude

[@utubeape]

Thats a great idea, if it was windy you could duct tape some space blankets for the sides of the tarp and stake them down

[@kennethwilson8633]

You definitely have a lot of cool camping gear…Have fun stay safe.

[@chrisjones6017]

Absolutely fantastic set up

[@retronaut6396]

Great video. Was just thinking that these huge aluminium reflective camping mats you get might be another good, cheap way to reflect the heat back.

[@paulcarey9248]

Good idea Dan.Got me thinking about my reflective tarp.....

[@marksadventures3889]

Lol...that's a big wind break Dan. Not seen one that big ever. I like this idea of the stove and tarp, looks safer that veing in a tent with it. Especially for someone who moves about a bit in the night.

[@ivandavidson5694]

Good idea nice video Dan👍👍👍👍👍👏

[@RaynarNslR]

Interesting idea and with that wind break to reflect extra heat back awesome. Great vid Dan can’t wait to see what you come up with next! Stay safe buddy atb 👍👍👍👍👍🦊

[@andrewrush5125]

Love it 😍

[@justintime1307]

Interesting set up. Has anyone ever used or purchased a decent motorbike tent. I've seen one or two where you can have the bike in the center with two sleeping compartments either side. Used to place a tarp over the bike to our tent, had the bike get pulled over on a bad night as there had been mud made a bog by the torrential rain and wind. Thankfully wasn't sleeping next to the bike as friends had suggested. Looking for ideas for the TT next year 🙏

[@BulldogBadger]

Top idea Dan 👏

[@grahamscothern4319]

Great idea Dan 👏👍👌 Atb Graham

[@acimbobby]

great mate, that is a super setup. You could set the stove a bit closer to the tent if you wanted a bit of a boost on the stove heat. You could add another wind break or make one. Very useful setup

[@robg521]

Brilliant 😁👍👍

[@Icwalking]

Cracking setup. Top notch! Is there a tent you would recommend for me to take my daughter wild camping in? I’m use to army surplus bivvi so need something a step up from that 😅

[@jamesleigh9651]

S**t the bed Dan! That's an awesome little set up. I've got the bobcat, it's my favourite go to tent. Deffo gonna give this a go. I'm guessing it will be a lighter set up aswell compared to a big hot tent. Top vid pal 👍

[@NewHampshireJack]

We are happy this video popped up in suggestions. We watched and enjoyed your style of presentation. We will not need the ideas in the lowlands of the Philippines where we live. North of our home base, in the mountains of Baguio, it can get "frosty." A little heat for the tent would be appreciated. We also plan to take our young troops on a vacation where they may experience snow and winter activities. There will be a time and place to practice what we observed today. You have certainly earned a subscriber. Now off to whack that SUB button.

[@mattsankey4544]

Genius idea cracking video as always 👍🏻

[@voxfan7403]

Tarp + tent is akin to belt + suspenders. Try a tarp with a long lay fire in front for warmth and cooking and forgo the unnecessary weight and claustrophobia of a tent.

[@BTurner.]

Maybe you could use the stove without a tarp and have it a bit closer to the tent? Then it wouldn’t matter too much if the wind got up.

[@hectortheerector]

Hot tarping good idea

[@theronin365]

Genuine decent people with good content will get more subscribers....stay yourself mate. p.s maybe one of those silver survival blankets would help reflect it too?

[@michaellaing2067]

Great idea Dan

[@simonward4520]

Hello Dan , That is very similar to how I use my Tent and Tarp setup , except that I use Tarp polea to hold up the Tarp .🙂 , but no Stove ! , No winter Camping .

[@MoosebearAdventures]

Great 👍🏕️

[@girlyvoice3210]

Im toying with the idea of making an insulated enclosure for a wood stove. The idea would be that I can open it at two ends, directing the heat into the tent or towards my seat outside. When sitting outside I'd have a blanket covering my legs and one of the enclosure openings

[@robsims6352]

This would be good for those shoulder season temps, I.e. 8c to 2c ish - I can't use my hot tent unless it's around freezing as its just too hot. Good job dude!

thank you brother for all you do and all the knowledge and experience you bring to us these hot tent ideas are coming at the best time for many of us its like we are communicating via the universe as i was recently thinking of starting hot tent camping and converting my f2 french military nylon tent of get a different tent altogether you have shown me another way with a tarp and a hot tent conversion kit or a dedicated tarp as seen in your video a suggestion if i may for wind breaks could you show folk how to make three [3] sided wind breaks from dead-fall branches for that more wilderness feel by using natural materials available

I've got the OEX bobcat 1 and the OEX phoxx 1v2, for that reason I've just bought the DD superlight 3x3 tarp weighing in at 460g, I'm assured I got a good deal at only £66 for it, though I'll weigh it when it arrives lol. Great video buddy, enjoy the rest of your weekend and see you on your next adventure ✌️ 🤟 😊.

@@samb394 just so I'd have a bigger porch when any of my tents are set up if it's raining, so I can cook and sit underneath and keep dry👌
