So I wanted some feedback since this is just and idea. I am very familiar with hard desert landscape, since I used to have a part-time job pounding in real estate directional signs on the weekend in the Mojave desert. We used heavy duty steel for that, it it could still bend. What made the signs very hard to go in the ground was when the ends were dull, from just getting old. When the signs were fresh, they would have very sharp ends, and they made a HUGE difference. My first year at Burning Man I used 12" re-bar for a tent, and it was overkill. I have the same feelings about the hexayurt as well. I was thinking about using these pegs...

I would create a "hoop", and run the hoop through the pvc pipe/tape, through two of those pegs, and tie it together. That way, I have 20" of pegs holding my hexayurt down, and it seems they would go in and pull up much easier than re-bar. Plus they are cheap. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hexayurt" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
