Your old tent is repairable. Use a piece of canvas to cover that tear. It should be 3 inches in each direction from the tear. Apply a generous layer of henry construction adhesive to the inner and outer edges of the patch and press it well in place on the outside. Its heat resistant, flexible, waterproof, and sticks to everything.

As your friend at My Self Reliance figures out, whatever size you think you want just double it and add a walk in porch and screened deck. You will be in heaven. You get one chance to do the foundation right. Can’t wait to watch the series.

I hear you about the canvas issues. I had my share of problems. I went with a Sierra Designs Mountain Tarp Tipi that I sewed in a silicone stove jack. It was killer. Not sure why I sold it. I kick myself for letting it go. 70D Nylon. 5 lbs. Fast and easy setup. A bit of sag and poor heat retention though. However, I just bought a Luxe Megahorn XL in white to replace it. Excellent so far. Way better heat retention. We will see how it holds up.

@@SnozBerryQueen You can buy silicone/fiberglass stove jacks very cheap, alternatively you can use an aluminum baking sheet or two. We will be buying our first canvas tent this year and I will be reinforcing the stove jack immediately with a baking sheet and extra fiberglass. It seems to be the typical fault point on these tents and is easier to prevent than repair.

I am nervous re cord wood/stack wall building. Do your research. Thanks for the videos. Congrats on the land. There is nothing better than owning your own piece of bush.

It's not winter that kills the tents but UV from the sun. My 10x12 prospector lasted 20 years and last year was the final for it. Never leave the stove pipe in when you leave is first advise, the stove jack in that tent was not of thick construction and I can see why it failed, silicone was not thick enough. I have an 5 man arctic bell tent that withstood a nasty storm last year without fail. The adage you get what you pay for sometimes is very much true, with snow, rain and ice storms here in the North, trees barely survive, let alone a tent. I left my prospector up 2 years straight and summers killed it......cheers Fred
