Fuzzy Bear Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 What to do with dining flys? My suggestion is still to purchase a big fly whopper and bang their guts out for messing with our steak dinners. FB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD4JHI Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Try using PVC and Aluminum instead of oak, it works for us. We slide the aluminum pole inside the PVC and it becomes strong and most of all adjustable in length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeattlePioneer Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Lot's of good ideas in this thread. Personally, I use 12'x12' or 12' x 20' tarps. For poles, I favor buying six 2"x2" x 8' square studs at Home Depot. Cut four of those to a six foot length, and use those to stake out the corners of the tarps. The 8' lngeth are used to form a ridgeline. It's easy to lash these poles together and keep them together, and often the tarps can be erected in alternate ways that don't need all the poles. You could also use just two poles forming and ridgeline, and stake out the sides of the tarp. I like the idea of using PVC pipe along with couplings so that the poles can be shorter. I'll have to experiment with that approach. Seattle Pioneer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
