    Looks like rain all week here in Gadsden, with the threat of severe weather Wednesday. Excellent opportunity for testing! So, I just threw the ole prototype back up: let's see what she can stand.

    Well, we had no tornadoes, hail, or 70mph winds. (thankfully!) After almost 3 days of rain, thunderstorms and 20-30mph gusts, the pvc roof frame performed well. I set it up Monday evening and haven't touched it since. The tarp shifted a bit, but that's all: it didn't cave in from water puddling.

    The Squidbilly has landed!! We did a quick setup in the garage last night. It looks great! Our new tarp has a black roof and end doors. The sides are burnt orange. I will post pictures of our setup at HANGCON when we return. THANK YOU Squidbilly

    You're welcome. Glad to hear it arrived in time. How do you like the added fabric on the inside? Hopefully, that will prevent abrasion from the tarp rubbing against the stands.

    It really is awesome! We used the prototype for fall MAHHA. Being able to have a setup with the two stands under a tarp has many pluses. Privacy for changing, large dry area during bad weather, hanging with children, cuts wind and temp is a few degrees higher, and I am sure we will find more benefits as we use it at upcoming hangs.
