Very useful link Dave. Thanks for sharing that with us. Just need to get my van moved to a level pitch now and I might get mine looking like that!

Your are very welcome , yes me too vonc, I have the minor, the Magnum side pole would have gone down across my bedroom window though, and I didn't much care for that, didn't want scratches on it from the side buffer.

I also took note of the little tip of opening the side panel zips a bit to get a nice taught roof.

Metal ones, graphite from lead pencil.
