Shorter packed size for tent poles

[Pete Staehling]

I really like my Eureka Spitfire 1. I find that I prefer it over much more expensive tents for those trips where I do not want to tarp or bivy it.

The one problem is that in some modes I find the long folded size of the poles (22 inches) to be pretty inconvenient.

I am toying with either cutting the existing poles into more sections or making a different set of poles. Any advice on how best to proceed?
