Scotch Performance Masking Tape 2364 Tan, 100 mm x 55 m, 8 per case Bulk
That's 60 yds long and 3.937" wide.

Running the numbers:

60 yds * 8 rolls
= 480 yds.
= 1440 ft.

The yurtclipz would need tape for the following:

short roof hinges: 6*8' = 48'
 long roof hinges: 6*9' = 54'
      wall hinges: 6*4' = 24'
        tape ring: 6*8' = 48'
+    tape to tarp: 6*8' = 48'
-----------------------------
                         222' total

A classic hexayurt needs about 400' of tape.
The 8 roll bulk box will tape 4 hexayurts with yurtclipz.
At about $20/roll, you'd need 2 rolls.
You'd have 360' - 222' = 142' leftover.

TL;DR: $40-$50 will buy 2 rolls of 4" wide masking tape. Would that work?
