This was my first burn in a Hexayurt and it was by far the most comfortable!

D'oh! I am planning on building a new yurt for next year with Hunter Xci 286 and using this stuff for UV protection of the Bifilament tape: <http://38.media.tumblr.com/90d649906264fca03312b2b048f67412/tumblr_nc3m42haGL1qcl1oko1_500.jpg> I got it here: http://simaintl.com/store/aluminum_mylar_PET_tape.html It's very thin, tough and flexible though I am a little worried about the strength of the adhesive. I set my test piece out in the weather and I check in on it periodically. Boston area folks: Hunter Xci 286 isn't carried in any stores in Mass. but there is a distributor who will do 48 sheet pallets at about $30/sheet. Does any one have a better source and/or want to share a full pallet? Jake.
