I’ve been gifted an old (2008-9) beast of a tent.
Which is fine a were a family of 5.
However it was too much for it’s previous owner who left it outdoors for a year so it’s taken a real kicking.
By the time I got my hands on it a part has snapped off. See image.
I don’t want this monster in landfill, there must be a way I can revive it somehow.
Anyone got one in the shed or know where I can get spares or how I can still make it work without it falling in on us?

Fully desperately open to suggestions.

Hi, I just typed in 10mm 3 way junction and got some results that might give you some ideas.

I owned an Evolva way back. We had a very active thread on here back in the day. There were issues with the length of poles which was remedied by Coleman sending a shortened section.

Don't know if the thread still exists after all these years.

The Evolva was a beautiful modular tent but a beast to put up.

Good luck finding a spare junction.

All the old Evolva threads are still here. Just use the search facility typing in Evolva and the 'Forever' duration.

Brilliant I’m going to head to the DIY store. I didn’t have a name for the part to be able to search for replacement. This is a wonderful tip thank you.

Thank you I’ll definitely check it out.
I tried to put that thing together and I cannot make sense of the instructions. And the only thing I could find online is that other owners struggle with the instructions too! Lol
I’ll have a look at the thread, see if anyone else is crazy enough to still be using one.

Might be worth contacting Coleman (EU) to see if by any chance they have that spare part.
