Thanks for a very concise and methodical video ; with evplainations of "why" ... ! I've viewed many y/t videos on , the correct way to pitch a bell tent. Usually they flop the tent down, then beginning @ a door corner; they stake one corner and proceed in a circular manner staking each point 7ntil they arrive back at the door. Often just pegging the loop where it lays, with little thought given to tensioning it. The base , walls and roof get all funky and wrinkled. Only so - so on the guy lines ... Then they blame the tent when the wind takes it down. Thankyou for an excellent presentation on how and why you take the steps you do along with the logic behind it ... !

My stove is just like yours and I had to set it in the yard and burn it before putting it in the tent. It burned most of the paint off. If you don't, you get the fumes from the paint. I have a flange but it doesn't have the second ring and the screws. I'm at a loss about how to install it. I'm afraid putting screws in it with only 1 metal ring means I'm screwing it to the fabric and the weight could tear it. I read on the instructions to use a super glue and glue it to the canvas. If I do that, I'll have to find a heat resistant super glue

Great video! Thank you! I had a question about the tent pegs.There's a loop on the outside of the groundsheet that the tent peg is threaded through before the peg is staked into the ground. What's the function of that loop for the tie-down, and is it necessary to attach it to the tent peg? I ask because we're going to be using lag bolts to drill into playa and won't have those thing pegs with us. I can run additional cord between that loop and a carabiner on the lag bolt, but I'm wondering if that's necessary? Thanks!
@BaylilyBellTents2 жыл бұрын
Hey… Great question… The loop is not structural or integral, so you could leave it out on your system. It’s job is to relive pressure on zips and keep the sides looking neat and tidy… Good luck and keep us posted..
