Watch me TRANSFORM this MASSIVE TENT into a HOT WINTER TENT!

[@paulym5814]

There is a guy here from Maine , Joe Holland, and he stays weeks in his Eskimo ice shack. He has a sectional floor that he puts down first to stop the cold from bleeding into the tent. All fits into his small tow trailer that he tows with his Ski Doo. He has a great following here in Maine. His setup is perfect for extended trips ice fishing.

[@JohnLaFosse]

I live in Maine as well. Chuck Porter's videos are what influenced me to buy an eskimo and put in a stove jack. Albeit its not a regular thing I'm happy to have the ability to set up camp in this manner. I was spoiled with a diesel heater in my GFC this winter until the fuel tank leaked frying the electrical in the all in one HCalory. And so, I am humbled. Wood burning is the way to go.

[@lovethem007]

Hey chuck… awsome video …I had the same tent….I didn’t cut a hole in the ceiling I just fabricated a stove pipe jack same size of the window I used 4” stove pipe it worked great …and stitched it on with velcro…put the fabricated window in and away you go….love the videos bud!!! Take care

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Yes I’ve seen other do that as well and it worked great. Many options

[@twiz148]

I saw a video of a pellet heater with an oven (oven was a bit sketchy) but it allowed you to pre-fill it and go to sleep for 8 or so hours without maintaining the heat over night.

[@SuziPoozi]

Cool tent! I highly recommend getting an extendable pole to support the middle of the roof. If any snow builds up on there, the weight will collapse the roof. Amazon carries some that are made for tents and awnings that have a point that goes through eyelets of tarps and there is a round ball that covers it that works perfectly to support the tent/tarp without poking through it. I think through brond has the word elephant in the name. They come in 2 lengths, so make sure you get the longer ones.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Yes absolutely. If you watch some of my other videos where I sleep during the snowy night, I cut a small wooden pole and smooth off the top of it and then pop that up in the middle for the night

[@sharonegger5130]

Wonderful! You could put down a nice outdoor rug, you still have your vents, your drying meshes, and I love that pipe jack! Nice one!

An outdoor rug is a good idea. 👍

Hi Chuck! That's a very spacious tent. Look how far you've come. When I first started watching your videos til now. You've made lots of upgrades. This tent now is awesome. If by chance your skidoo breaks down somewhere and you had to fix it on the spot, that tent would be a great wind block or heated make shift garage. Possibilities are endless! Lol. Have a good one bud!

[@jenniferstewarts4851]

Seen some big tents... 16 x 23 footers, that we bring in on sleds. They take massive wood stoves, twice the size of camp stoves, that handle 24 inch logs. Big steel frames for snow loading. Though, I've seen a person use one of those temp car garage tents, as a hot tent going as far as adding 2 extra layers of insulation.

Looks mint. My otter pop up tent has a window in the roof so I was able to just take it out and traced a piece of welding blanket and sewed Velcro to make a stove jack. I also had to angle it using two 45’s because straight up it was kissing the tenting and melting it. Trail and error.

Nice tent thought I might have to switch to an Eskimo but my otter resort still has more square footage lol. You did gain some head room you’re really going to like the door. I never put the rods around mine yet seems to work ok with out them. Still no snow here yet was pretty warm here today but that might be changing soon. I see Jay has 5inches of ice up his way lucky guy. I bought the 45 degree elbow this year so I can still use the windows as well if I want to configure inside differently instead of my stove jack. Kinda gives a person options hope all is well stay safe and we will see you in the next video Ian

When I did this a year ago in my Eskimo ice fishing tent I Removed one of the velcroed windows I got a silicon cooking sheet.Cut it in the shape of the windows Added Velcro cut a hole on it. And went out the window with my stove pipe using a couple of 90s. I felt this was a better solution because I didn't want holes in my roof or wall.And I could seal it back up With the original window when I Wanted To use my buddy heater.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Have seen a bunch of people do it this way and works nice as well. I was seeking a more permanent solution this time and something with a little tighter seal. Very pleased with it thus far

You need an elbow for your pipes, and may I suggest drill a small hole through your top pipe to hold steel wool preventing live sparks from leaving your pipes.😉

[@oh-brothers]

I wonder how those really big pop-up tents handle high winds out on the lake? Also, putting the chimney on an angle makes it harder to find a wind directional backdraft stopper/chimney cap. Maybe a second angled stove pipe to make it vertical again would work.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Spent many nights in these tents out in middle of the lake with great success. Anchored down solidly is a must of course. Check out this video: FREEZING COLD WINTER CAMPING - ROMANTIC DINNER - ICE FISHING - OLD FASHIONED LAMP / -36 DEGREE TEMPS kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKTHdIKbd6mHZqM

Thanks lance

[@shawnstachowiak8517]

I feel like the boot should have been snug to the pipe. Like in actual home chimneys.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Ideally yes. But if you look at the older canvas tents, they may have an inch or more of extra space. There will be some snow/ice make its way in, but the only inconvenience that brings is the dripping noise when it strikes the hot stove.

[@jamesglode7171]

I used it camping in summer... leaks like a sieve in the rain.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Most of the winter tents do. Luckily we don’t see rain here for about a safe 6 month period. If it snows, you tap it occasionally and it falls off. Quite easily the colder the outside temps. And the insulated walls help in that case as well

[@martinerkelens5807]

Very nice. I do think you cut away one too many ring on that rubber thing, seeing as light comes trough. If light comes through, water will also be able too..

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

I could have made it tighter. Although with the pipe on the angle it kinda balances out. You can see that in the follow up video

[@martinerkelens5807]

@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors I'll stay tuned!

[@brentjacobs2172]

Can’t wait 😊

[@zfilmmaker]

Looks cool but without a floor, water can get in, if there’s snow on the ground and you heat the tent what’s it like when the snow melts? If there’s high wind it could lift up but overall cold air will push in from the bottom making it very cold without a constant heat source especially throughout the night when you maybe asleep.

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

Generally speaking, the snow only melts in the vicinity of the stove. The ground beneath is so cold here that the heat that's rising from the stove cant combat it. You have to tinker around with the area surrounding the stove, but if you watch my next video, I explain precisely how to do that

[@zfilmmaker]

@ I’ll have to take your word for it because you’re out doing it, I’m not. I guess you’re staking the tent down and pilling snow on the edges to seal out the cold out.

[@davidthatcher7754]

You may want to get some floor mats as I use them as they work great

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

I have tried them and also an outdoor rug. Most times the snow packs hard enough it doesn’t require one but does keep it cleaner. Ps. I use green boughs sometimes as well, but they get tangly

@@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors if it will not seep through you can use a tent as a form and the inside stays nice and clean( may need to reinforce for the pour not to bow it) outside could be anything really... cardbord? remove the cardboard after and cover in planks from pallets idk...

[@DaveMasse-e6g]

Do they make an insulated floor by chance?

[@ChuckPorterEverythingOutdoors]

No (as it’s primarily meant for drilling holes and fishing out of). However, people often use those padded mats from Walmart that are about 2’ x 2’ and interlock together. I don’t bother as there’s really no need. Even at -30 or colder

If you have sawdust soak it in a bucket if you have lots use a blue plastic barrel scoop some out after soaking for a day or two make a brick mold stuff it full of saw dust put it under a press press the water out let sit for a while take it out let it continue to dry now you have a brick that will burn longer and ive herd hotter great for night time so you dont have to keep getting up to feed the fire to stay warm lol just a good way to use up sawdust on the property there are videos out there on how to make them also paper as well.
