Curious – has anyone here ever had a person/outfit sew a cuben tent fly to replace a sil one following the same shape/pattern as the sil? I'm guessing it would be quite expensive in terms of material/labor and the measurements could be slightly different because of the stretch of sil.

Find a tent that someone already makes that's similar to yours

Too expensive to make a new design that's slightly different

MLD makes a bunch of Cuben mids that people seem to like, for example

someone posted a diy article here about one they made a couple years ago. It looked great.

I wouldnt trust it to just anyone. Since it doenst stretch, if not meticulously made, it could be dissapointing. The time it might take to get a one-off right would seem to make it prohibitively expensive unless diy. Once someone has patterns though for a certain tent, they could crank them easier.
