So two weekends ago we got the steel up and this last weekend we managed to get the canvas up. Was definitely a challenge in the heat. And yes the SS was used in the project. There is over 750 ft of 1/4 line that we had to lace the canvas up with and now we can park the cars out of the blazing sun here.

But looks good anyway!

Re: Not exactly woodworking
The tank is my water tank. The steel structure is 2" galvanized steel. The fittings are ready made fittings I purchased. The canvas is a pvc by sunbrella that is 24 oz material. They warrant the material for 10 years. My best friend owns a canvas shop and has a seam welder and grommet machine so it was time consuming but fairly easy to make. I went a little overboard on the grommets at 6" OC. It should help make it last longer. I rented the scissor lift for the weekend to simplify matters. They gave me a weekend rate on it so it was very reasonable.
