Title: New tent
Post by: ErikPrice1@msn.com on May 11, 2015, 04:17:02 PM
 The wife and I just got back from Eugene, had to go see the son, was his B-day, we went fishing and had a bbq. Then took a short trip to Sweethome a fella had a 10 x 12 wall tent with 4 foot walls, he wanted 150 buck for it. It does have some holes in the wall where a critter tried chewing through it and a couple in the roof. I didn't want the poles they were metal and he said he could use them for his fly on his new tent, that brought it down to 100 bucks. It has some dirty spots but no mold, he said they always let it dry before storing. The tent is 15 years old but was in really good shape for it's age. We finally came to an agreement of 40 bucks and 2 brick's of 22 Remington ammo. ;D I got plenty of that. Even the wife was pretty happy. So now I'm going pole hunting and my buddy Brian "Mrclean" here has some leftover tipi canvas I can have for repairs. Looks like I'm up and running, ponderosa rondy is only a couple weeks away. Gotta score a stove. ;D flwa

Congrats on the new tent. Make sure to take and post a pic or 2. Enjoy ponderosa and take pictures of the events. Do they still do the outhouse? I think that was my favorite shooting station.

Was trying to finish the work on the new tent, was noticing how much canvas I was messing with. Looked at the numbers on the front door 10 oz, 14 x 16,"HUH WHAT" (susp) I thought he said 10 x 12, well looks like I got another warehouse hdslp. Good thing I haven't gone out to get poles yet, that's gonna be tomorrow.

Even more value.... you can get more canvas and section the front part into a small store and become a trader... or invite more people to stay with you

You could always do the drinking hole we talked about. At least with this one you won't have the oil wall anymore. Great find for $40.00.Do you still have your porch cover?

That was such a good addition to the warehouse. Can't wait to see the new one. You going Wed- Mon? I'm jealous. That one was always my favorite.
