2. Tapered chimney with butt sleeve joints that can hold center pole weight.

3. Vertical mount for better radiant heat on the body in front of the fire.
Check out my picture album on the forum, I will share patterns, etc.

PS. A tent has no insulation so why have a fire when you are in your sleeping bag. It does not take long to get the radiant heat with a hot fire in the morning
WOW thanks pal. maybe we should talk about that. I appreciate the time you took to share that with me. PM me and we can chat with email.

thanks Big Hope
