I threw money at it and ordered the shade this morning.
Bob La Londe

Which one?
I had the HF 10x20 shelter set up over the sawmill and gantry all last summer. 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.
