Either way, this is a pretty cool design.

Definitely not UL - but it would be fantastic for car-camping.

That is pretty cool. Something to consider.

Do I sense a Spinn cloth model coming out in the near future? That would be killer.

That does look kinda neat. If it rains you sleep in and if not you can sleep under the stars up off the ground. Hmm

Did anyone look at some of the other links below. There is one called the Urban Shell- Shelter for the Homeless. Pretty fancy getup, no more shopping cart for me when I retire and become a bag lady Laughing But this does make one wonder, now if you are homeless, do you have a computer to order stuff from the Internet?? Crazy But then again there are braille buttons on Vending machines (I did ask the vending machine guy about that one got a reasonable sounding answer). Pretty sure this was not really intended for the homeless, but a pretty catchy title to grab your attention. Not quite sure who'd use it though?
