I have a large garage with a large workshop I built onto the back end of it. Spaced away from it and alongside it, I have a large garden hut. I entirely paved over that area, between those buildings and bought a large tarp..


I added screw in eyes as fixings, so that the tarp fixes along the garage side, along the front of the hut. So two sides fixed and supported. For the loose corner of the other two sides, I support it with a surplus caravan awning pole, pulled taut by a guy rope. It works fine as a bit of sheltered outside working space, to keep the sun and rain off, but I wouldn't trust it in much wind.



A few years ago we actually bought an Aldi gazebo, it was hopeless in the slightest wind. It would worry me having any gazebo up for any extended time, because we live in quite a windy location.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
