    Christmas Tensahedron

    Happy New Year everyone,

    Had some time over the holidays to do some "crafting" so I put together a tensahedron stand following some of the homemade designs found on the Tensa Outdoor site. It is a rough cut, bare-bones stand made with 3/4 " and 1" EMT conduit. To connect the legs I used 1/8" coated wire cable, and I used paracord for the ridgeline and stake guyline for the initial test. I ordered the webbing kit from Tensa Outdoor to dial it in and will field test it soon. It ain't pretty, but my plan is to figure out how to operate this one before upgrading to the commercial version.

    Nice-looking stand.
    Now you're going to find yourself making one every time you get bored.

    我宁愿在山上。

    Thanks! I may make one more, with more polish. I am pretty much a car camper (minivan) so weight isn’t a serious concern. Still, the commercial stand is pretty sweet.
