my makeshift awning.

set it up at a buddies when I first got my trailer but have not used it on trips as I have not needed it yet

this season we are going to do more local camping so will need it big time

next thing I want to do is get sides for this all around they have them as a option in SA but to expensive to ship up here so will try to get some made from a local canvas person ?
might also just go for some netting all around to keep bugs out and let the breeze through

I am going to get a large silver tarp also

Overland Journal has a comprehensive awning test scheduled for the next issue (spring)

We review:
1. Camping Lab
2. Eezi-Awn
3. Fiamma
4. Hannibal
5. Fox Wing
6. Front Runner Featherlight
7. Sunseeker

Awesome, can't wait. I was thinking to myself the other day, I wish OJ would do a review/test of awnings.

I'm in the middle of building mine. its aluminum. the framework is done.

still needs
-a proper fitting canvas/tarp. will be attached to the parallel bar and the roof rack and will need to strap to the perpendicular pipes extending from the truck.
-outrigger lines
-attaching the awning to the vehicle when folded up for travel
-finding a way to cover the awning once rolled up for travel.

just finished it up. still need to make a cover for it while it sits on the roof rack.

Bought some 6" diameter PVC and 2 matching end caps. proceeded to go to town with a friend's reciprocating saw. got everything cut the way i wanted then applied a good coat of herculiner (truck bed liner) with a roll on applicator. used ratchet straps i already had and voila. the awning and awning cover are now complete. the truck has a much cleaner look that just a rolled up tarp on the side now.
