    Tensahedron Stand

    "This is my <4-lb, 98% free-standing "Fulcrum Stand." Can be set up on a beach, a slope, in a parking lot, or on top of a twin bed. No ground staking required: single anchor can be the base of a shrub, big rock, cooler, motorcycle, bed frame, etc.: it just manages balance, not needing to bear the user's weight.

    Most who've seen it have told me to get a patent application in, and when's the Kickstarter etc. OK. Officially patent pending!"

    I slept 4 nights in this working prototype before stupidly destroying it in a transport accident. It was in pricey carbon fiber tubing, which I'm certain isn't necessary to do the job. So I'll be iterating in cheaper aluminum.

    Also figure it's better to have 4 separately shock-corded poles than one continuous.
