Hey
just got my lichfield deluxe 6 frame tent but as always without instructions.
We have sorted out the frame and are sure its right but we didnt have enough room in our garden to put it up fully.we are planning on putting it up fully at the inlaws next weekend.
Is it easy to fit the canvis and bedrooms (pods)?
Does anybody have instutions they could photo and post on here?
Also any other tips on erecting frame tents

You have to brake the legs so to speak. Put the canvas over. Then work from back lift one leg at a time all the way to the front.

May I suggest for problems with erecting, see your doctor and ask for little blue pills

I would still put the canvas over before the legs are fully up otherwise you will get what we in the trade call erectile dysfunction which could lead to a partly erect tent and all the distress that may cause

Experience enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again
