Thanks,Hal, I will check it out.
Hal, thanks for the info and the pix, it looks very professional. one last question what were your costs into it? Yes I can sew , have done my own custom window treatments for years , as a matter of fact I sewed my first set of panel covers for the graphic display panels plus 6 for my friend, ( never want to do that again) I don't have luck with groments as I have used them on various projects in the past, they always pull off of the fabric after a while. I used them on my Light Dome Flap to adapt it for a shade flap out of the back of my tent and two are off already. Any hints to keep them on. Thanks, Virginia
hal, I would be interested in how you made your mesh panels I am switching over from rigid Graphic Display panels to the mesh ones for my Light Dome tent. Cost to purchase from Light Dome , Stabilizing bars plus roll up mesh would be about $700. plus shipping if I could do it for much less that would be great any help is appreciated, Virginia
