TIPI$INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Unpack the wooden box.

Step 2: Match each of the 8 ft poles to a 4 ft pole. Insert the end of the pole into the metal pipe connector. Make sure that each pole end is all the way in. Tighten each screw with a screw driver making sure they are secure.

Step 3: Lay 2 of the poles on the ground. Lay a third pole on top like shown above. The poles should meet 20-24” from the top of the poles. Using the white rope, tie around each of the pole creating a tight knot.

Step 4: Once the 3 poles are tied together. Using 2 people, one person grabs the top pole and the other one of the bottom poles. Begin to raise the poles and spread the “legs” equally apart to create a strong tripod support. There will be a long end of rope that is hanging from the center. **Please note that if your floors are slippery it is advised to place sandbags at the base of the poles feet**

Step 5: Working counter clockwise, begin placing the other poles on the tripod structure. The poles will interlock with each other creating a tight fit. The poles will be equally spaced at the base. Using a ladder wrap the remaining rope around each pole and around the pole bundle as a whole. Tie the rope off tightly.

Step 6: Get the parachute cover. The inside of the cover is marked by taupe strings. Grab the top of the cover (side with the small circle of strings) Begin to tie the cover to the poles where they are bundled. Work your way around the top securing each tie. Wrap the bundled area with the provided jute rope so it looks dope.

Once secured, find one side of the cover door opening and begin to work the cover around the structure from the ground.

Step 7: The center of the cover is marked by a sewn square of fabric (shown above). Once this is on the center pole you can begin to work the extra fabric towards each of the front opening sides. Extra fabric can be pinned with provided brass pins. Enter the tipi and begin tying the taupe ties to the nearest pole.
