Looks outstanding! About how long did it take to set up?

Thank you, Ian. It took about 2 hours, but neither of us have ever put up a tent before, even a modern one. We didn't know how to adjust spots where there was too much slack or not enough, or how the wood bar on the rope works, or how to stake the perimeter properly - we made a lot of notes, and I think we could do it in an hour next time. I'll post some "lessons learned" a bit later.
Sir Brian:
Looks great! Well done indeed! :)
Of course to earn the 'expert' badge of tent raising you have to set it up on a moonless night...in the rain. ;)
Sir Edward:
Yeah, the first time it can take a while. Once you know what you're doing, it doesn't take so long with enough hands.
Ian:
Finally got my double-belled wedge set up today. I didn't bother with the fly, I just wanted to familiarize myself with putting up the tent itself. Pretty straight forward once I figured out how everything was supposed to be. In the first picture I tried to put on my most period 'scowl' lest anyone think I was happy ;) and in the second photo, that's what I call period Air Conditioning.
