[QUOTE="Dewey, post: 254596, member: 14606"] I am very impressed by your tipi and I own a Kifaru 8-man, had a Paratipi and a 6-man. I also like the floor as you show it and would prefer this in most BC conditions, especially on northern muskeg. I do disagree with your comment as to Bibler tents being the most breathable of all SW tents; I had one for years and have an Integral Designs MKI-XL, as well. The ID is superior to the Bibler, especially the ones made since they introduced that shiney coating on the fabric. The best SW tents were the eVent ones built by ID some years back, but, he and others were forced to stop using that fabric for tents by it's manufacturer. However, you should SERIOUSLY consider building your tipis larger and on a commercial basis; with a liner, I would be very interested in buying one and I would bet others would as well. The heated tipi concept is among the more practical ideas in backpack hunting that I have seen emerge since I backpacked my first deer in 1964 and you seem to have the knack of building them very well.
