The stove boot is now holding up well, and the tent bits appear to not be too warm. as I mentioned, I had to cut the boot ovally. having one of he wire pipe loops in there 'locks' the pipe into the boot well, making it very stable as it's held tight to the top of the tent. I will still probably take a bit of wire and wire the pipe to the interior tent pole for safety. Having the pipe come out of the stove in a windstorm while the stove is going would be double plus ungood. (43/75)
