Half pyr innernet for Solomid or Pyraomm 1 (and larger)

Innernet fits perfectly under the 4′ x 9′ Solomid using just 1 trekking pole. Leaves me a roomy 2′ wide vestibule running the entire length. No worries about rain entering and exiting because the inner sets in the back half of the mid. Shelter also has a small 36′ square footprint.

That looks really well made. Are you itching to take it out for its first trip?

Question- are the vertical corners of the floor stiffened? If yes, what did you use?

Cheers

Thanks Megan, yes I will take it out on the trail as soon as the bugs return here in Indiana.

For the corner struts I used 3/16″ diameter bamboo sticks 4 1/2″ long each. I cut 70D silnylon strips measuring 1 1/2″ X 5″ and folded in half lengthwise and went over with warm iron to hold a crease. Next I folded the 70D strips around the cut corners of the floor fabric (90 degrees) with the sticks inside and pin. Then I remove sticks and sew. Afterwards I reinsert the sticks and sew horizontally on top and bottom to hold in sticks (should have 1/4″ excess silnylon top and bottom). The elastic is 3/8″ wide flat.

Monte, it looks like every last detail is so dialed in.

Thanks Monte, that detail is really helpful.

Ive been wanting to make some stiffened corners for a bathtub groundsheet…. trying to work out if I can be bothered sourcing carbon fibre rods, or just use something I can get more easily (even better, reuse something I already have! ). Ok, you have inspired me to to take the next step.

I wish I didn’t have to work- then I’d have more myog and walking time!
