Thank you not only for the great content but for the tips on using a clamp. Not sure why I’d never thought of that but It’ll make my build much easier. Thank you.

Thanks for watching!

Yeah that's how I want to live a tent stove and live off of the land

[@TA99427]

Just bought the same tent. Didn’t want to set it up outside until spring to do the whole seasoning thing. Did you do the seasoning process after setting it up? If not, did you have any issues with leaks initially? I set mine up in a gymnasium today and it seemed like a snug fit on the frame. Did you notice your canvas shrink any with time?

[@gravesupnorth]

I never did season my tent. It's been up for over 2 years now, and there arenno issues what so ever. Looks like new. I purchased a rain fly which keeps the canvas in nice shape.

[@Centigradee]

Where did you get the foam flooring!?

[@gravesupnorth]

For free from dumpster diving!

[@scottpierson7495]

Just built a platform on my land a 12x16 for a 12x14 wall tent. You didn’t want to use pressure treated lumber?

[@gravesupnorth]

I figured it won't be getting wet... and cheaper. no problems yet. Thanks for watching!

[@TraceyJones-tw1kk]

Hi can you leave the link and price for the tent did you have to ask someone if you could put the tent their like a zone area great video thanks

[@gravesupnorth]

Because this is not a permit structure, no permit is required in my area.

[@The_Argent]

Any fire concerns using that foam with a woodstove?

[@gravesupnorth]

Not at all. Thanks for watching!

[@craigster750]

What is that black foam? Purpose to just make it softer?

[@gravesupnorth]

It's roughly 1/2 thick black foam. It helps make it a bit softer and more insulated from the ground. Thanks for watching!

[@craigster750]

@@gravesupnorth Can I ask where you sourced this?

[@user-yk4pv9nz8u]

How long are these tents expected to last if you leave them out all year round

[@bennym1956]

Good quality canvas tents may last 15-30 years, depends on upkeep. BUT White Duck 14x16 Canvas Tent may not be the best canvas tents on the market.

[@gravesupnorth]

10 plus years... I have a tarp on top to help with UV rays. Year 2 and the tent look as new! Thanks for watching

[@rbljackson]

@@gravesupnorth IM looking at their 8x10 model. Any issues with it since purchase or completely happy?

[@mattfox8354]

Just ordered same tent. 14 wide deck work well with 14 wide tent?

[@She-M-C]

We’re you able to attach the frame poles to the deck?

[@gravesupnorth]

Yes, every footpole has a heavy-duty washer and screw going into the 2x6 of the floor. I will have to show that in the next video! Thanks for watching

[@bennym1956]

Old, retired in paid off comfortable house drinking my coffee, watching and giggling... how long do yo plan living in it ?
