Howdy. Our big/carcamping tent is an EM3 w/vestibule. So I found a second vestibule on Gear Swap, thinking I could rig the tent w/2 vestibules. Then I thought, what if I sew these together and add a pole? Here is fast mock up, as they zip together. Middle pole is from a Moment. 57 square feet for about 57 oz+/-. Vestibules are 28.5 square feet each. I get 57oz from a spec. of 24 oz each, minus zippers, plus pole and cross web. Also, REI has these for $45 each. Perhaps a smaller one could be made from the smaller vestibules. Thanks, stephan.em3

Thanks. Checked the hang tag and I had the weight wrong. They are only 20 oz each. I think the finished project will be under 48 oz.
