[MR] Easy & cheap pavilions

Friends and neighbors,

I recently finished a 1/3 scale prototype of a new pavilion design.  You may
have seen my kids playing in it at Jongleurie.

I plan to be sleeping in a full-sized one by Pennsic.

The whole thing is meant to cost under $200 and be built in a single day, as
an alternative to the Costco carport.  Like the Costco carport, it's
plastic, for good or ill. 

By starting with a large (30' x 30') tarp and adding a few darts to shape
it, you save almost all of the sewing.

I'll try to post pictures soon, but for now here's the updated plan:

Your servant,
