Step 4Colapse for storage
The frames are complete. To collapse for storage:
- Rotate the feet into the collapsed position.
- Remove the wingnut from two opposing corners.
- Remove the short slat from the two corners with the nut removed.
- Fold the short slats onto the long slats
- Screw the wingnuts back onto the studs that they were removed from
- Roll the cloth around the frame components for storage.
Reverse the process to reassemble the frames.
Maintenance:
If the cloth gets wrinkled, it can be ironed while the frame is collapsed and the cloth is unrolled.

Couldn't you just modify a cheap canvas from like Wal-Mart? Just asking.

The canvas is too thick as a diffuser but makes a great sunshade. 2nd, the frames don't knock down for easy storage. The PVC idea might work with sewn pockets instead of stapling. May have to try that.
