While pretty decent its flaws were rain pooling above the eave rails       because the cover wasn't tight enough, the tubes pulling apart in high wind       and poor squareness of some welded fittings. I had to deburr some tubing       cuts and stiffen the center eave joint by lashing on EMT conduit, so I could       remove the center posts while working. It wasn't difficult to set up without       help.              The columns could have been higher. I had some salvaged frame tubing from a       collapsed garage that slid over theirs and raised and leveled it with hose       clamps as stops. The guy lines didn't hold until I replaced the stakes with       orange steel spiral anchors from HD. The cover tightens by twisting the       corner posts its bolt (edge) rope attaches to, and they sometimes untwisted.       Extra guy lines attached with plastic tarp jaw clamps tightened the cover to       stop rain pooling.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
