Title: Canopy help
Post by: Knoll on June 29, 2018, 04:26:15 pm
With "rendezvous" season on us, this idea may be useful to some.
Here's way to keep rain water from accumulating on the roof of your popup canopy. Pool noodles in the corners!

I was thinking someday to get one of those canopys like that.All one unit and goes up quickly.Probably from Wal Mart I guess.I'll remember that slick trick about making that water run off Mike.
On a side note here.Today it's predicted for over 80% humidity at temperatures in the 90's.

We got 68F, back to the 90+ range Monday!  The long range forecast for MoJam should be getting more accurate, but I'm loading a fan to put under the awning!

Ed, Wally world (at least here in MO) has 10 x 10 on sale right now for $42. They are like the one I have. 

I am going to have to try the swim noodle idea.  Good thinking Mike!

That's a pretty fair price I'd say.I still got my old canvas with wood poles squaw cooler I used back in the buckskinning days.Back then at fur trade era rendezvous's you were'nt allowed to use anything nylon or plastic.Seems everyone has one nowadays though at bow making gatherings where the rules are'nt as strict.
