Hi. I just happened across this thread. Hope I am not butting in too much.

Did you know you can buy plastic in a box at HD that would cover your swing set frame in 1 piece so you wouldn't have to worry about a storm tearing it apart? And you would have enough for another 2 years? It was very cheap too. Between $40 and $60 dollars. I will see if we still have the box tomorrow. Yesterday my husband put up the frame of our hoophouse. We keep it up till March then take it apart, tossing the plastic and the PVC separates into smaller parts easily stored.

It takes about 6 hours to put it up.

Here is the PVC frame. I think it is 15 ft long and 12 feet high. We had it 15 feet high the last 2 years for my tall brugs but this year I am not putting my tall ones in. I can take a shot of it covered tomorrow.
