Well I’m gonna add to the growing list of KC Stove modifications.
I need some input though. I have a 10x10 Flexbow Deluxe and a 12x9 Cabin tent Deluxe model. I bought a Bear Paw Design stove jack to have the local Tent and Awning shop sew in the stove jack. I’m leaning towards the 12x9 tent since I have the enclosed accessory on it + plus I like the rectangle layout vs. square.
The stove is the Nu-Way 3500 (propane). However, I’m going back and forth if a wood burning stove is better.
Pros and cons I’ve been considering. Don’t have to haul propane. Have to get up in the night to refuel if using a wood stove.
Today I setup the 12x9 and looked it over for stove jack/stove placement. After reviewing similar mods I see most people either glued or sewed their stove jack on the side wall (most likely) to prevent water from coming in when not in use. However, I noted KC on their 12x12 Cabin stove jack model they have their stove jack in the ceiling which I myself prefer.
Since the small zippered access point (propane hose) is off set (left hand side) when entering the main door I’m thinking about installing the stove jack when the blue X-mark is on the attached picture. Which is also in the appropriate location of the 12x12 Cabin Stove Jack model.
Thoughts?
