PDQ1313 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Good day all: I am new to this form but though someone could help. I have an old overnighter tent from the 60's I am looking for the center pole. I know I could use an all an one replacement pole, but was hoping to find an original pole. Any thoughts let me know. Thanks Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwazse Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Welcome to the forums, Pete! I save poles from spent dining flys and cut and mangle them to size. A pipe cutter, hammer, and vice is usually all that I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertrat77 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Welcome Pete! I too have an old Overnighter tent that I bought a couple years ago. No pole. I ended up buying a suitable substitute off ebay. Those original poles are very difficult to find. I also have an old Miner's tent that has the original poles. Got lucky on that one.
