Cuben pyramid – Hex

With that pitch you should be ashamed, Ryan!

Just pack up that masterpiece and ship it to me before your lack of pitching skills ruins that shelter! :)

Wow that looks nice, man. Great work.

Looks great! What dimensions did you use? What about cat curve amount?

It looks like you made smarter use of fabric than I did. Did you split the panels in two, with a trapezoid base and triangle top?

Thanks John & Todd. Yep, used a trapezoid with a triangle at the top to complete each section. A little extra work but makes it cheaper for the member overall. The other four yards would have put the price quite a bit higher. Cat cut was 1.25" and the size of each triangle was basically the same that you used.

The peak area was the most difficult just because there is a lot going on in a small space. Vents, vent covers, peak reinforcement inside & out, webbing for a nest, etc. Tape going everywhere! Plus, there are a couple stitches in the vent covers which required additional reinforcement. In some ways, taping cuben is easier than sewing, but not always.

I still need to go back and add a guy out on two sides to allow it to be used as a 4-sided mid similar to a duomid.

I really like your idea and I consider duplicating it.

Very nice.
