ok, so im thinking that since it rains a ton over here, of just making a covering in the backyard where the dogs can go potty when it rains. its pouring over here!
anyway, so this is what i'm thinking *visualize*....i made a little pic if you wanna see it...i'll try to insert it here
ok, like 6 PVC pipes that are around 5 feet long....and 3 PVC pipes that are like 6 feet long. SO: i put three 5foot pvc pipes on each side in a row....and stick them in the ground like 6 inches or so. and then the three pvc pipes that are 6 feet long will go in the middle in a row......THEN: throw on one of those heavy duty blue tarps.
now im starting to see some holes in my plan because
1) how do i make sure it doesnt collapse?
2) how do i make sure it doesnt collapse from raining falling on it? (thats why i was thinking of making it look tent-like)
3) how do i attach the tarp? so that it doesnt fly away.
4) how can i insert a light for when it's dark? cuz that'd be pretty awesome to do. we have an outlet for a plug in the backyard
we bought the dogs a hello kitty tent...and that was pretty durable (its too small)....but all the connecting parts were sooo hard to put together. im thinking about doing it like that now. but i still wanted this little project to be under $10
anyway, thanks for the help if you can help me.
