Hit me on the back channel and I'll send you the URL to the page I did on it.

Warning though, you can almost see some private parts during our slip and slide adventure.  :o

Looks like it turned out pretty good! smiley_hollywood_cool
Did it go up and come down as easy as planned?

The up part went real smooth--only once did we assemble a bent with an asymetric post turned 180  :-[

Cutting everthing to exact tolerances off a CAD drawing really helped.

When we took it apart, a few joints were tight due to shrinkage but we only had to drill out 2 pegs.

We marked every joint before disassembly so it should go up real easy next time.

We may be taking it to the 10,000 Lakes Festival in Minnesota next month 10KLakes (http://www.10klf.com/)

it would be neet to have a 10X10 or 10X20 version to use at craft show instead of the typical easy up
Would sure be an attention getter
