great job Corbin....I wished it had taken pics but I wasn't sure you were ready for that.
I saw quite a few people looking over his design and I gotta say it is very creative.
Looking forward to a finishing version and especially a pic of you guys using it in camp!

To answer a few questions, yes Hannibal style but when packed away this one is a 6 foot unit on side of rack closed. Open it is 8x8! I have some tweeking to do but it is a working awning. I will have many options in the near future. Sizes and yes it will have optional drop down legs but only for windy conditions so you can stake it down or when you ad the walls.

sorry for the delay, I have been working really long hours lately on trailer stuff and haven't had time to get awning where I want but I have madea huge improvement to the arms and next week should have some pictures to show you guys!
I got some new CAD stuff and have been designing new parts but really want and need to get back on this project! What I really need is my own shop not making stuff for someone else... ah to be a dreamer...
