Thank you! Its was a good time. And it turned out pretty good! Thanks for watching !

Nice looking build! Nice to see what a plywood roof looks like instead of my cloroplast one. I like the inner lip you added to the inside of the bottom box which the canvas is attached to. If you add the bungee it will pull the fabric in when you close the tent.

Looking good! Thanks for sharing your process

Thanks! Stay tuned for part 3!

If you mounted the side clasps at an angle so they pulled the top towards the hinge it would offset the force created by the gas shocks and not warp the hinge.

nice work. looking forward for the final project

How has the living hinge held up?

I wonder how red cedar studs would work on this project. Would probably lighten it up significantly. We just screened in our patio with red cedar studs. I didn’t realize how much lighter cedar is

It would probably work well! Cedar is also more weather resistant so that is also a plus. Thanks for watching!

Nice job! Thinking of doing something similar. Where did you get the plastic hinge? Can't seem to find it. Thanks.

Nice! My goals for this build was to keep cost down as well as keep it as thin as i could. Weight wasnt a huge factor since I already knew wood would weigh a bit more than aluminum. The next time i do this it will definitely be made of aluminum.

Putting s Z channel all the way around will make a drip edge to keep water out and if you painted it white it wouldn't be an oven

The lip all the way around has kept water out very well. And with insulation it has been pretty good at keeping heat out, or in. But i am sure white would be a much better starting point! Thanks for watching!

It's not, I'm 5'10 and I fit fine in there. Maybe if you're 6'5 or something but it's easy to make bigger and customize it for your needs. Thanks for watching

Lol, just going to say it! Weird watching this again reflecting on years ago! Not even close to being the same time and when people work with products and fast drying material! Not even the same as another persons application! Some things arn't even worth the depth when you remember just watching videos to appreate the work in hopes to learn somthing! Funny
