4 days off work with 3 of them rainy, if I wanted to get some work done on the Cutlass and don't have a garage, I had to figure something out...

 

Looks like your neighbor does..........

 

Make sure you tie that thing down. Wind burst comes up and you'll have some crying events in your future.

 

X2 what 69 said.

my FIL held his down w concrete blocks. A good wind lifted it and dragged the block across the hood, he was not happy.

 

I have one of these canopies that I use occasionally at car shows. I used some old (try JC Higgins brand) barbell weights bolted together on each corner. I used a 10 pound and a 5 pound on each corner. It would take a pretty good gust to pick it up, They are a lot easier to carry to a car show than concrete blocks. I have seen some weights made for these at sporting goods stores.

 

No worries 👍..wind is light today and if all goes well with my current project, the canopy will come down today... but, I do have weights on the legs 😀

 

JC Higgins! My old man has a pistol of that brand; we think it's a High Standard Sentinel. 50 years ago.....

 

I wondered when I read about the weights so I looked on the 'net and JC Higgins was a Sears, Roebuck & Co. house brand for all sorts of sporting goods from 1908 until 1962 and was replaced by the Ted Williams lineup of products. AHA! A friend inherited her Dad's .22 rifle and it is engraved Ted Williams. I had thought it was made by JC Higgins but now I see it was made by High Standard.
