I can't comment on accuracy because the real tent is very rare. I have only ever seen pictures. The build quality is outstanding. You use the provided measurements to build your tent poles. 1-1/8" wood rod and 1" metal conduit (for connectors) will do the trick. I also use a ridge pole but It does seem optional. If you ever wanted one of these I would act now as I doubt they will be reproduced again. Highly recommended.
