Great job!    I'm guessing there is no floor to it correct?  Would love to see the setup from inside if you have any more photos to share.

Thanks for posting!

Hey. Don't go tying up my guys time. We're talking in the a.m. He'll be busy for a while. I'll trade his time for Idaho elk info. He's worth it.

I've been wanting to tackle a six man teepee for awhile but always  declined due to material costs.  I built a gore-tex bivy 16 yrs ago with surplus goretex, but now want something with a heater.  Just might have to start!

Silnylon is so much cheaper than gore-tex. Of course it won't breath as well but for a tent with a stove and no floor...breathability is not as important. The website I purchased from sells by the linear yard so each yard is 36"x60" and costs well under $10

Hey bro, I don't mean to solicit you here but a Kifaru Tipi is BIG money.  I'd be happy to put something together if you could cover materials.  It might not be a Kifaru but I can make it for a fraction of the cost.

That is sweet dude, super lite weight as well, I would be packing that tent everywhere, like others have said, it wont he long and people are gonna ask you to build them one.. cool idea and awesome tent..

I cannot wait to build another one either for myself or somebody else. I already know that I can build one much lighter and more efficient.

Thanks for the positive comments everyone.

And yes I am quite the housewife

Great work! What would you change to make it lighter and more efficient? And you should post some pics of the inside

I would make it a different angle so shorter center pole and shorter lengths of fabric. Then I would make my stake points out of narrow webbing instead of thick webbing and grommets. I calculate a 5.5# total with those changes
