Bell
tent is a human shelter for inhabiting, traveling or leisure. The design is a
simple structure, supported by a single central pole, covered with cotton
canvas. The stability of the tent is reinforced with tension by guy ropes
connected around the top of the walls and being held down by pegs around the
circumference to the ground. It has a circular floor plan of some 16ft and
larger.
1.Strong.
2.The
cotton must be bone dry before storing the tent.
3.Never keep the tent
stored away wet for longer than two days, otherwise fungus
can affect the canvas which will then create permanent little black
dots.
4.Maintenance
starts when setting up your Bell Tent. If a Bell Tent has not been
set up correctly, uneven forces will pull on the canvas, which could eventually
lead to damage. To ensure your tent stays set up correctly daily guy
rope maintenance is necessary.
5.It
is in your interest to keep the canvas as clean as possible and remove stains
when created. Dust and dried mud is best removed once the canvas
is dry by brushing with a clean, hard brush like a floor scrubbing
brush.
