You are a Master Mechanic now
Whoa, there Nellie...let's not get carried away now. After all, I did staple the new tent about 3/4" too high around its perimeter prior to putting the top back on, which you know what that means. Yup, aluminum track will in no way capture the tent hem no matter what. Not wanting to slip with a sharp tool in my hand, the top comes off, staples come out and we try again. You may rescind my Sword of Wolfsburg...at least for a little while. At least I didn't put it on inside out. :banghead:
