Description
Probably the most timeless of all tentage, the wedge tent has been with us in one form or another for many centuries. We have researched and found a variety of shapes and sizes suitable for different time periods. Some have flat fronts and backs while others sport a belled rear section providing storage space for gear.
Unless otherwise noted, Tentsmith tents are made out of 10 oz. white Sunforger – mold and mildew resistant canvas.
All PRODUCTS ARE “CANVAS ONLY”. YOU WILL NEED POLES, ROPES, AND STAKES TO SET UP YOUR TENT, WHICH CAN BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY.
Christian Huard –
I purchased that tent from the previous owners about 10 years ago and I’m still using it for larp events.
I opted for this model because it’s just big enough for me, my larp equipment, foods and everything I need for a big week of larp (7 nights). It is quite easy to put up and you can even do it by yourself. You only have to put the stakes (at least to hold the tent up, but about 12 if you want to do it properly), install the poles (can be 3 2×3 cut to the right length) and you’re done! No rope, no knot.
I would recommend this model for 1-2 persons if you want to store all your gears inside the tent. Could probably fit 3-4 persons with limited gears.
My only regret so far is that I should have opted for the 1750 model instead (bigger), since I’m 6′ tall, but since I’m only sleeping and storing my gear inside the tent, that’s not a bbig problem.
