[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 254626, member: 7999"] I use a 30 gal barrel stove in mine. It'll cook you out. Build the stove your self w/ a kit from Volgelzang. Don't use a 50 gal barrel, you can't burn it low enough. The 30 gal is large enough to burn all night. I don't like the frame that I have for my tent. Mine is a ridge pole w/ two legs on each end. Then wall stakes that go on the out side of the tent down the sides and pull tight w/ ropes and stakes. I would prefer to have a frame that is all internal, and has a rafter style. I think it will do a little better in the wind. Check with the different makers, for a material called "realite" (I think this is correct). This material is waterproof and does not mold. You still do not want to put it away wet. If it happens it won't rot. Down side is they are a little hotter in hot weather. I personally don't find this to be a problem. The size you are talking about should work fine for 4 cots, don't use the huge cots. We set up a second tent for cooking and socializing. Wood stove in each. Tried to put in an image, but can't get it to work, I better call 7mm in WA. for help. If I can get it to work I'll put it up. Good luck, Steve [/QUOTE]
