Thread: Plastic wall support?

Tweet

I just picked up 3 packs of 10'x25' 3.5 mil black plastic at walmart for $8 a roll.

I will be using it to make walls in my 10x10 pop up tent. I know that for the outside, I will be taping it to one leg and then wrapping it all the way around the tent, and then slicing it with a razor to make the entrance and exit (some ductape just above the top of the slices will keep it from ripping it all the way up).

This is the layout I want to have. You walk in all the way to the right of the tent. You can either go to the left to the other end, or straight through (to bypass the scares for the wee ones ) The two hallways will be 3 feet wide.. The main room with the electric chair will be 7x7, on the opposite corner from the entrance.

How can I support the walls so that they won't be able to move much? I plan on using a piece of pvc in the 'scissor frame' of the top of the tent and hanging the plastic from that. What about the bottom?

Any ideas?

Nobody has any ideas?

I I understand the question: I use whatever I have around that's fairly heavy to secure the bottoms of my poly walls...2x4s work great or even spare PVC pipe.
