A weekend of feeling ill and bad weather lead to this. Its been done before elsewhere on internet so not an original idea from me.

Components


Put together


Pack Size


Weight with Pegs (finally found a use for those laser comp tent pegs)

Looks good. What did you use for the uprights and how do you peg it out - through the uprights?

I used 2 inch sections of aluminium tent pole. Duct tape into place to make the 3D corners then the peg goes through the tube and leaves a 2 inch wall all round. Won't last forever but I've used the stuff before and it is pretty robust.

A tip from making lots of polycro tarps/groundsheets;
If you can get woven (http://www.carrierbagshop.co.uk/fibre-woven-tape.html), use that rather than Duct.
For the same weight it's way more resistant to tearing than Duct (you have to cut it rather than tear when taping up) and it doesn't deteriorate as Duct does - I've got 4 yr old tarps where the tape is good as new. On my Duct ones, the tape has gone brittle & failed (think it's related to UV resistance).

Hope that helps

Cheers for the tip.
