    I'm wondering it the peak was somehow hinged , would that make it easier to erect

    the frames could be hinged at the base

    You tack the bows to the peak with some old carpet, makes a nice hinge to lift the ridge and bows into place.

    I signed all the paper work on the new yacht

    high anxiety to say the least

    great looking work there Boyz can't wait to see the end walls go together
    my bet is they are just enough to support barn style doors

    For the American measurement handicapped individuals (like myself) thats:

    L = 9.8 Meters
    W= 6 Meters
    H= 4.88 Meters
    (not sure what the 1/2 is lol)

    Im listening to Chris de burgh (Sailor) while contemplating about boats, the water and fishing .....

    The 1/2 is 25.4cm time 6, which you add to the 4.88 meters. to total 16.5 feet converted to metric.

    It probably doesn't look it but we put in a full days work today. I had my buddy Andrew helping out (Paid labor, he's just a highschool kid but a good worker).

    Framing up the shed doors etc.

    Ready to be shrunk tight!

    That'll come likely next Saturday. I can probably hang the plastic on the back end but will definitely need help draping the big sheets over the top of this monster! Standby...
