DIY Alu en staal canopy onder R5000

Post by War-Medic »

Hier is so paar pics van n canopy wat ek gebou het in 4 dae met minder as R5 000 en die gewig is onder 100kg.
Plek vir tafel om in te skuif onder die dak.

The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations.

Welcome to the Forum George. The canopy is neat & looks good. How do you slide the table in under the RTT or does it fit inside the canopy?
