[Ansteorra] Pavillions

[Aurore]

> Greetings!

> We went and got one today.  Some of the corner pieces were a little
squished
> in and we had to work to get all the poles far enough into the corners to
> get the canopy to fit correctly.  Ropes and stakes are really cheap, so
plan
> on replacing it. It has a vented top, so don't plan on it being
water-proof
> (even though it is scotchgarded), but it will keep the canopy from being
as
> much of a parachute in the wind.
>
> Our plan is to leave it up in the back yard for a week and see how it
goes.
> It took about 30 minutes for the 3 of us to set it up.  The little white
> tags labeling "Part 3", "Part 6" etc., won't stay on when wet, so we were
> thinking that some reflective paint on the different parts might help for
> night time set-up.  The walls are pretty cool, too. The top has square
dags.
>
> What Llywelyn is concerned about is how it will hold up to being taken
down
> repeatedly. I have e-mailed the distributor (it's made in China) to
inquire
> about replacement parts. There is a durability issue.
>
> All in all, it makes a very nice list field or kitchen pavillion for a
> household or a small group.
>
> Thank you for letting us know about this find.

a

I

> dagged, and they are trimmed in a brown.  The sides are on rods can be
held
> around the post with a tie or zipped together.  It has 6 posts and 6 side

> flexability.  The support rods are a little over an inch in diameter and
> are steel that is powder coated a darkish brown color with a texture to
it,
> much nicer looking than my other two pavillions.  The guy at the store
said

down

> The store I was in (for those in Tulsa, on Memorial around 43rd) had 20 or
