They do make bigger models but I dont think they use the pole hood on many.

Seams. Yeah, I've seen some tents which have the seams covered and others not. I'll have to look into that.
I never saw any Terra Nova around here - they probably aren't distributed where I live. Thanks for the link! Lots of interesting info there!
