    Good job to the cameraman keeping you honest. It's clear even small content creators let the fortune and fame get to their head. He's a great addition to the channel though and should get a raise.

    Back in the mid 60s my uncle Bill would take my family and his family on weekend camping trips. All of his equipment was military surplus, so we slept on canvas cots and inside large 4-5 man canvas wall tents. I remember, vividly, two instructions that he emphasized to us about canvas tent use. One was to never stretch the fabric more than necessary during setup because the seams' stitch holes would be stretched out to form small leaking holes. The other rule was to never touch the inside of the fabric, especially if it was raining, because a dripping leak would start at that point. These were things he learned as a Marine in the South Pacific in WWII and he made sure that we followed the rules on every camping trip. Don't know if they were true or not because when Uncle Bill said "Don"t Do" you just didn't. It was a different and better time then.

      The oldtimers I know that used canvas tents would treat their tents with Thompson water seal, and had the same rules, don’t touch it, and not over tight.

    The Spackmera man keeps you honest. Better to record over an old Disney flick than vintage porn. With Pinochonio you are dealing with fantasy. You are also doing so with vintage porn but at least you see the bush. Makes more sense when discussing tents. Thanks for the video.

    You should do tutorials on how to waterproof tents with silicon spray and such. Season is just next the corner and people would want to know. Be sure to title it basic like “how to waterproof your tent”

      Did the 6m have the pole grommet too for the door? I was shocked to see the vents leak cause the only reference I have is your tent. I filmed the video once(the first time) and gave it the benefit of the doubt that it needed the pre soak. But it’s still a sweet deal for the price. Thanks for watching bro
