Tent slips keep the tent ropes tight and the tents sturdy. The peanut-shaped piece of wood is threaded into the tent ropes, then angled and pulled tight.

The rectangular tent slip measures approximately 5.5" long, 2" wide, and 1" thick. Stained with Linseed Oil.  Available in Pine wood. While the peanut-shaped tent slips were to military specification, rectangular tent slips were easily crafted in the field and were thus readily available.

Per military specs "Tent slips - To be made of cherry, birch, or other close-grained and suitable wood. For wall tents, 5 1/2" long, 1 3/4" wide at each end, 1" in diameter in the middle, and 1" thick throughout, a hole at each end, 3/8" in diameter, to receive the tent cord."

Proudly MADE IN THE USA in the Great State of Idaho.
