Costco sells ($159.00) a four sided 10X20 canopy that assembles in minutes and has a zippered door (zipper is on the out-side), with the standard poles there is about 4" gap around the bottom. The poles are 2.5" in diameter with pins that interlock and everything is powder coated white. To check on a Costco in your town: http://www.costco.com/frameset.asp?trg=info%2Fcostconews%2Flocations%2Flocat ions%2Easp I anchored mine to my asphalt driveway with 6" lag bolts using air tools, took ten minutes for all 6 poles. I can unscrew the lag bolts and move the canopy if I need to, I plan on hanging plastic sheeting around the inside during my painting endeavors, I can disassemble the canopy after and reuse it...

Not really relavent to the initial question, but all the same. Next time one of those travelling tool sales deals rolls through your town, go buy one of the 10' x 20' white tent canopies. You can usually buy them for about $100. These include all the poles. You can also buy the side curtains for something like $49. Lay down some flywood for a floor and cover with a thick mil drop cloth or tarps. Tape all the corners with duct tape, install an exhaust fan and "instant paint booth". In addition to a paint booth you end up with a tent canopy to cook burgers under at the fly-in you host. Give em a place to fly and free food. Get a bunch of KRs, and others. Once again, just a thought. Dana Overall 1999 & 2000 National KR Gathering host Richmond, KY i39 RV-7 slider, Imron black, "Black Magic" Finish kit 13B Rotary.
