I want to get into some winter camping (pine woodlands) and the colder it is the quieter it is out there. As such I want to take a stove with me for a cosy time, reading and carving things inside a warm tent. I'm on a basic budget but these are what I'm thinking. I don't care to spend extra on titanium even though it is half the weight, I will just take more rest stops. Which of these tents would you choose? Or which other? First tent (picrel) only fits1 person, stove inside main compartment - needs a heat mat
Or the bigger version with the separate compartment for the burner. Could the smaller one be more cosy, potentially, or is the bigger one the better option?
>>2845549From what I'm told, it gets very cozy even if the stove is outside.
>>2845548>carving things inside a tentHello no /out/ Have you ever even been camping?
>>2845571I'm not going to send my arm sideways suddenly and tear the canvas, or go to sleep with kindling between my toes, don't worry mum.
>>2845548I haven't compared prices, but any canvas tent + the thing that goes around the chimney might be cheaper than a paper made one. The chimney thing might even come with the stove
>>2845735*purpose made one
is there a cheap foldable one ? want to carry it while i walk or could you haul around a regular one
>>2845922I am OP. I just ordered this foldable titanium stove from aliexpress - £100 ($130?). It weighs 4.3lbs and packs into a small carry box. The skinny legs initially put me off but after looking through some reviews there are guys who have built/photo'd it and given it 5 stars, so I will see how sturdy it is when it gets here. It's less than half the price of other titanium stoves, the same price as a heavy stainless steel one so I took a gamble. Will post results.

For the tent I decided to get a small tipi stove tent with the windproof skirt and a cloth inner liner for the bed area. I might even cover the liner in mylar survival blanket that I cut to fit around it, why not? That would be windproofed!
>>2846029>I might even cover the liner in mylar survival blanket that I cut to fit around it, why not?Keep them away from the stove pipe. Highly flammable.
>>2846114Noted, thanks. I've also had people warn me about carbon monoxide so I guess I'll keep the top vent open a touch until I can get hold of a tester.
