Done.

In the past six hours, I've finished sorting, packing, and yurt-herding. Both of my 18-gallon rolling footlockers are full-to-bursting, and both the six top pieces and the six bottom pieces of El Yurt have been magitastically joined so that each set is one piece. They accordion-fold down into one 4'x4'x9" wall-piece and a triangle inscribed inside that same space for the roof. This means assembly should be snap, instead of the nightmare of black humor that would likely result from trying to assemble all 12 pieces with tape in an 30 MPH dust storm.

I think I've used at least 400 feet of duct tape so far. I'm not kidding.

And maybe one day the last two seams will be Velcro...

Hi, Vinay here. I'm really interested in knowing how you did your pre-taping on the hexayurt. When you get a chance, could you post pictures somewhere and send me a link (hexayurt@gmail.com) so other people can learn from what you figured out?

Thank you!

I hope you have a great burn,

Vinay
