Pole Tent Setup - Step By Step Instructions - 20x30

[@justjosh8288]

Wood pads are nice under the poles as well so you can ratchet a tent tight without poles sinking into ground

[@TheLifeofJenelle]

Where can we purchase wood pads?

[@justjosh8288]

@@TheLifeofJenelle you cut them from 3/4 plywood. Make them 4x4 for sidepoles. And 6x6 for center poles. It’s cheap and it’s effective. I was a large festival event foreman for over 10 years. Any other tips or tricks or or questions you have, let me know. I love renting but my body just couldn’t keep up anymore.

[@TheLifeofJenelle]

@@justjosh8288 thank you. I am going to screen shot your instructions. I am new to renting. I just started a KZbin video to show my journey. I told myself I want to open a venue for customers to have their baby showers etc. I know the rental side will make up for any shortcomings. I would be honored to ask you questions. Your expertise is extremely valuable. I am a mother of 5 children and I pray my children will benefit from my business in the future even if they hire someone to manage it well.

Lol. Jace showed up to work in slides. Cmon man!

[@alexdiaz7744]

Just giving away knowledge. Great video!

[@therentalguy]

Thanks. I’ll keep making them if you keep watching!

[@PinkySprinkles]

Loved the video! Very helpful! 👍🏼

[@cfwproductions]

Very informative! Show how to hang the lights in a next video ?

[@therentalguy]

Soon.

[@douglasrawe]

@@therentalguy did you do the video for hanging the lights ?

[@wertyghjkl-fc3dx]

Would you consider yourself a vendor or event planner? Tried applying for a job doing what you're doing and even how the center pole is done is how I figured it was put together. Ended up not being chosen.

[@francoisgilbert3266]

ALMOST PERFECT YOUR SET UP, DON T WORRY YOU DID RIGHT, 45 YEARS OF DOING IT, BIGGEST I EVER PUT UP SITTING 12,000 PEOPLE YOU WANT TO SEE IT 🙂

[@partyrentalyyc]

Good going on the tent. I've been told if you put a half twist in the ratchet the wind won't flap the webbing as much. You tried that?

[@therentalguy]

Thanks for the feedback. That’s why I make these videos (one of the reasons anyway). I haven’t tried the twist but I will definitely give it a go. I’m eager to learn and grow.

[@pizzahut235]

If the tent is tensioned properly no need to twist. It’s literally just proper tensioning. With pole tents you usually set the stakes the same length of the pole to give a proper hold. To close in the stakes can pull out with wind. Too far out there is pull but no hold. Like I said just proper tensioning

[@mariohdz3212]

Hello , you don't like pole tents? What brand is this tent and how much you paid for it? Thanks. From Clearwater Florida 😁

[@francoisgilbert3266]

looks like an eureka, today tentology :-( MUST BE 1980 TENT, FIRE PROOF IS THE NOT TODAY S CODE FL 1401 NOT SUR ...13 ONCE

[@tonycruz6762]

Do u have a video using Jackhammer for stakes?

[@douglasrawe]

I noticed you beginning measurement was 50' x 70'. Is that what you need ?

[@laketansi]

50'x70' would be for a 40'x60' tent. Allow 10' (5' per side) extra for staking....although this tent doesn't look like a 40'x60'. More like a 20'x40'.

[@slange]

How long does it take you to set up?

[@rswow]

What about high wind pressure pushing up at the tent center?

[@CarlosJimenez613]

Can you do a video on how to set up lights ?

[@you2tooyou2too]

re 3:35 The line should be lashed to the bottom section of the center poles, or a gust could lift the top segment(s) leaving the bottom segment to topple and the upper to flail & impale.

[@santhoshkumar-sf2zu]

Thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@iamdaniellebshipman]

Where did you get your ratchet straps from?

[@therentalguy]

Princess auto, tent company, anywhere really. I found some handy ones I use for popups here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHataqmae6ihjdE

[@aldogmx6450]

The bad thing about those tents that have the poles inside in the middle of the tents and take up a lot of space

[@francoisgilbert3266]

lollllllllllllll yes 2 inches is alot of space

[@douglasrawe]

What size sledge hammer do you need ?

[@therentalguy]

We use 10lb 🔨.

[@MrDane215]

What model jackhammer are you using?

[@at8243]

Where can I buy this one?

[@justjosh8288]

Invest in a gas powered breaker. Professional tenter for 10 years. Wacker neussen is the best in this regard

[@therentalguy]

Totally. I’m hoping to get a Thor next!

[@francoisgilbert3266]

Are you sur ? i have tied Cobra ( 5 of them) , Pionjar 110 and 120 ( yes very powerfull) , and a one like he did use , and i prefer for sur the last one, ..no cranking, always work :-) and you are not tired after pulling the starter for 30 minutes :-) no way i will change my electric Bosh hammer.

[@tonycruz6762]

Wish u were in Illinois

[@TheLifeofJenelle]

Are you afraid you may hit a pipe when driving your stakes?

[@therentalguy]

I get the clients to call 811 and get line locates done. If they don’t submit the line locate to me I don’t setup and I keep their money as per my contract.

[@TheLifeofJenelle]

@@therentalguy thank you. Looking to buy a 20x30 from Tents and Tables. I am going to watch this video over and over again. How much is this tent rental? I want to make sure I price it right.

[@jassson94]

hey did you stop doing pole tents?

[@therentalguy]

We stopped doing Canopy pole tents (20x20, 20x30 & 20x40). Our pole tents are 40x40, 40x60, 40x80 and 40x100. Here is a video of the pole tents we did in 2024 👉🏻 kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoLOdKhmfb6UiLMsi=3PztrJLIGwo8oegz

[@jassson94]

@@therentalguy any reason why stopped the smaller tents ? Not rated for high winds ?

[@oneilgrant11]

You have company today I see

[@therentalguy]

Yes, thanks for watching!

[@jesusatempa5752]

Do you love doing what you do ?

Are you selling this tent?
