Anyone want to go in on tape? AZ

[Electeric Lotus]

Hey all, just looking to build my lovely hexa-playa-haven-yurt. It
looks difficult to get the tape required so anyone want to go in on a
batch?
I've seen a couple sources all for about $238 to $240 for a case,
maybe enough for 2 or 3?

What width did you find? and how man roles come in it? I'm definitely
interested as I haven't been able to find it at all.

I found this source for 4" and 6" bidirectional tape:

They will sell in small quantities, BUT they currently list this tape
as "backordered" with a nine day lead time. Hopefully it won't be
much longer than that.

I opted to get 4" tape instead of 6" tape because the price difference
was $22 vs $32 per roll. More rolls made more sense to me -- the 4"
wide version should be plenty wide (I think we used 3" or even 2" wide
tape last year and zig-zagged it for more strength.)

I believe Vinay's recommended number of rolls for a standard 8'
hexayurt is two x 60 yards. I'm going to try to make a taller version
of the same design so I got 4 rolls to be on the safe side.
