I have never made an AR style tent. But on one trip many years ago, my friend and I drove for four hours north of Toronto. On arrival at our pre-booked campsite we unpacked his tent and found that he had forgotten to put the tent poles in. Luckily we were located on a wooded site with a number of trees around and we had a good length of small diameter rope with us. I recalled the Swallows and we proceeded to rig the tent up between two sutable trees. We managed to pass the line down where the tent poles would protrude and hold up the ridge successfully, pegging the tent out normally. The rope also made a good line to dry oue towels etc on after swimming.
