There are tension fabric structures are easy to install and quite hardy.
Great shape and keeping close interest on your testing period... |
Thanks botsapper - that's a good idea. I was also thinking that I am going to build more tension into my next version of the cap. By using a different cover material and beefing up the frame a little bit, I should be able to create quite a bit of tension which will resist the deformation. It will be interesting to see what happens.... I am kind of learning as I go.
