What is the best way to establish shade sails? I took some shade sialis for maintenance and now I'm having problems back in place. Any suggestions on how best to replace?
If they are actually shade sails they have eyelets on corners. If I remember correctly, shade sails are usually triangular, correct? Well, all you need do is put a nail bent over a pole, a hook to the eyelet, the link with a rope by two pinks and open to the desired angle.
If there are four corners to a corner on the wrong nail, and the opposite corner on a tight line on a Guy post. Now all you need to do is determine how tight you want the sides to provide the shade you need.
Cheers!
I use bungees with hooks at both ends, and the chain tension at the mine. This gives you some slack when you put in place, and you can tighten / loosen if necessary.
