Set up safari tent permanently
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Set up the safari tent for xO project members to live in the Tiny Village on the camping flat initially, with considerations for permanence and weather conditions.

Set up needs consideration for wind factors, which potentially involves putting tent poles into heavy logs with drilled centres. This had been rudimentarily attempted, but other issues with the tent fastening (not being attached to the ground) caused the tent to collect water and it has currently been dismantled.

It is likely this will involve constructing an internal wooden frame for the tent. This will likely also involve constructing wood pallet flooring, using temporary footings such as bricks or concrete Besser blocks to level the floor and plywood to create a streamlined floor beneath the tent structure.

Alas she was too fargone... Therefore I have moved this task over here.

Actually @DylanReo, this task was for a safari tent that was not the same as the Friend Tent (which you removed). The safari tent wasn't holding up to the wind at the time, so it was packed up and moved to the Upper Shed, so hopefully its fabric is still good. We might be able to use it for something, or try setting it up again with a permanent frame.

@Timotheos - I believe this was destroyed due to exposure and was thrown out with the other ruined tents from the upper shed.
