I recently bought a 12x12 wall tent, and had some questions regarding the set-up and poles. I am not concerned with my set-up being PC, just want a good set-up for my deer camp.
So, that being said......I am trying to decide the best pole set-up to use...2x4's or heavy gauge sched. 40 PVC pipe. 3" for the ridge pole and uprights and 2" for the side supports. I have never heard of anyone using PVC, but the more I think about it, I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. I could use shorter lengths and connect togather with T joints. It's not any heavier or bulkier than wood, and it won't rot or swell from wet conditions. Am I missing something? Can anyone see any reason why it may not be the best choice?
