Very interested in a "new" rain fly also.

Well, it takes 6 yards of material to make one and at $9.50 a yard for the Super K-Kote Ripstop 140 Denier w/ 1.5 oz pvc coating fabric, $25 in misc clips, alluminum plate, webbing, thread, etc., and $20 for the Spring poles. If you do the math it would be quite a bit more just in materials than that to pull one together.

Makes perfect sense...

Sign me up for 1. That would be way easier than doing it myself.

So sorry for the Major delay! Have not been to this side of the site in a very long time. I have so many projects going right now, but I will try and see what I need to do to get this produced as a package. Give me a few weeks..

I was looking for a roof tent for the same reason. Came on this thread and want to be in line for this set up. It looks great Zane.

Zane, my ladder (the upgrade like yours) is wider than the tent when in the storage mode... did you shorten yours or am I missing something.

In other words, when I fold up the tent/ladder the ladder hangs off one side by about 4 inches. Did yours? How did you rectify it?

Thanks man, I am making my rainfly this fall for the RTT... going to try the sunbrella fabric as I have a bunch laying around.

Bump!
