- 16-year-old tent given away by friend? Check.
- Selecting a REALLY windy area for camping? Check.
- Ancient tent that is not able to stand the winds gets torn apart? Check.
Well, the torn section can be seen in the first photo, the outer shell had some major damage, luckily the stiches held at the corners.
I tried to show the fixes on the next shots .
I do hope the ductape is gonna help. I was able to peel it off when I tested it, I'm hoping it's gonna get a better grip in time (the glue's gonna seep in, I hope). If it fails, argh, it mayy be time to get a real tent or try something better than ductape (if such a thing exists...).
Actually ductape is the last resort when it comes to tent repair, because it's a bulky and messy-sticky solution but since this tent is, well, a zombie, anything goes...
