Hi, I really need some help ...I've tried to get info from the net but no avail... I have been given a Relum 'Paradiso' tent...vis a vis tent.. I have not got a frame for it, but have many pieces of frames from older tents, and so hoping to cobble one together but havent a clue of the lay out of the frame ...has anyone got a diagram of the frame needed, or can advise.
Any help would be appreciated as I am wanting to use the tent next week...
Many thanks

As mentioned in the link, it looks like a SunnCamp Ranch.
I have a SunnCamp Ranch, so can probably be of some help if required. I have cut a hole in the little roof at the back, and run the flu of a wood burning stove through it.
The only problem you may encounter, is that the four corner brackets that form the roof and leg fittings, do have a correct way round, although they look almost identical. If you measure from the center of the bend to the out side of the bracket in each direction, you will probably find that one side is slightly longer on all four brackets. If this is the case, then the shorter side is for the leg poles. If you do it the other way way round or just mix them up in general, it will make the legs too long, and the roof side poles will not line up with the reinforcement. Hope that makes sense. To make it easier, I stuck yellow tape on the top of the leg poles and the side of the brackets that the legs slip into

Canvas tent, paraffin light, petrol stove. Heaven
I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.

OOPS
having just re read your post, I now realise you don't have the frame. So just ignore my previous advice.

The basic lay out, is the frame forms a square in the middle section. This will be four legs, four three way corner brackets, a pair of three way top roof brackets with a shallow V section, and the poles required to fit between these brackets. Other poles etc, will be required to form the little kitchen extension at the back. These will be two vertical poles with pins on the top, and a cross bar to hold them apart. On the correct poles the front brackets also have three short poles to hold the little canopy out. You can get away with cliping some short pole sections to the side and middle roof poles with ties of some sort unless you have some four way roof brackets in your collection of bits. Plus four little poles that hold the side walls up at the four outer corners.

Funnily enough, I've just bought a load of old tent pegs, and stuffed at the bottom of the tent bag is the plans of a Relum Paradiso, with diagram. If you haven't worked it out yet, I can prob scan them in somehow ...
