things done but have question

Post by birdbrain » Tue Aug 17, 2004 6:21 pm

Just got my rebar cut(1st timer on playa but not for camping etc.) But concerned if my Kelty sun shade will hold up-anybody have experience w/ the things? I'm not too nifty w/ building stuff so couldn't go too imaginative for this vital piece.....don't want to be "brutalized due to being "clueless"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I had one in my camp a few years ago. No issues whatsoever. They don't present as big a wind profile as, say, a 35ft parachute. Rebar it down at each corner and if there's extra tie-down points, use them.
