Thanks Mike

Does your tent have floor in it? If so you"ll want want to put a heat sheild under the stove. You can use one of the mats they sell to put under grills that are used on a deck or a piece of tin.

You can also use a drip pan that they put under leaky cars. You can find them at a auto parts store. They are usually galvanized so they won't rust on you.

Yes my tent does have a floor in it. I thought about cutting  the floor where the stove will sit?

Be sure you use an "Asbestus" mat, not just a piece of metal. Most hardware stores carry them. Biff
