Mosquito Net PVC Frame

 

Summer camp is coming up and man I hate them bugs!

The previous frame I made was fine, but it didnt fit in the tent too
well, it seemed boxy and coffin-like. Because of the angle of the tent.
I was not using the headspace that I could have, so I re-designed my
frame to make a higher entry and using the shape of the tent as my guide.

These are my measurments, you can nip and tuck to suit your needs
or your cot size. (I used a standard cot from Bass Pro).
This is MY frame that I made for summer camp- It does work great and you can
hang a tent fan on the crossbars.

Supplies:

You will need 4 - 10ft pcs of 3/4" pvc pipe and fittings
10 "T's"
4 Elbows
4 End caps for legs

Completed Project

Ta-Da!!

I plan on hanging my tent fan and light from the middle
