Kevy, look at the link again, where it gets down to describing the making of the tent. The one I showed uses the walls AS guy wires, if you will. It also has the walls attached to the roof with a rain flap sewed in at the joining seam. So you stake the bottom of the walls to the ground, then pop up the roof with the pole. That's why I was wondering about tension and being able to get the stakes into the hub, because you have these pesky wall things that might get in the way.
