Then I wrote...

But if I'm already replacing the plastic with
canvas...

And then I need to replace the metal poles with wooden
ones...

And add some ropes and stakes to make sure the durn
thing doesn't blow away...

Why don't I just make a tent from scratch?  Anyone got
an online pattern for a mini-pavilion?  ;)

Cheers,
