▼ WHERE TO BUY PARTS: ▶ Tent Poles - 20 feet in length (length I used in the video) - amzn.to/3CDljzA or amzn.to/3exRZTs ▶Tent Poles - 25 feet in length (Length a large SHIBUMI uses) - amzn.to/3sp8VPf ▶ Fabric - A king-sized bed sheet works well for this - amzn.to/3D1iEkJ ▶ Sand Bag - A dry bag can hold sand, dirt, rocks, or water - amzn.to/3rWlX6C ▶ Paracord - to attach the leading edge to the sandbag - amzn.to/3EMe1fY
@@engineerable yes thanks! Im purchasing 2 California king sheets which are 6” longer than standard king. I just hope that together they aren’t too wide.
We r at Panama City beach right now and saw these sails in use by several beach goers. I was shocked when I came home and saw the prices online. Yikes!!
@@roger3958 it will work best with the 25ft poles amzn.to/3sp8VPf like the large Shibumi. In the video I use 20ft poles, cause it's what I had. The large size sail is about 15-17 ft wide by 9 ft long.
@@roger3958 me too 😂, I sorta get it being made in USA and if they are sourcing parts that are also made in USA, it can get expensive, and then retailers want to make 50%. But I couldn't stomach that for something I could easily make out of scrap parts.
This is a great idea. You can also use carabiners to attach the cord from the "tent" to the sand bag so that it's easier to just clip on and off without tying a knot each time specially if you're like me who don't know how to do a good knot lol😁 Oh and waterproof fabric might be a good idea too.
@@budgettech5526 Great Ideas! I'm going to make a video of packing it up. I don't have to undo the knots or make new ones to setup again. I don't even take the fabric off. Just pull the poles apart, fold, and roll the fabric around. So easy! I'm researching some fabric, ripstopbytheroll.com , to use for a new waterproof fabric version.
@@brandonkellogg9590 Depends on the material. Cotton or nylon don't provide much protection. Polyester provides a lot, which is what beach shirts are made of.

Great idea. I think I would do 2 king sheet to provide larger area of shade.
That would probably work well, because there's room to go wider, especially if you use 25ft poles like in description.
I knew this was possible, I just wasn't sure about securing the sheet. That's a brilliant solution. Thanks! No way am I paying $270 for this thing...
It's super easy. A single sheet is not as big (good for 2-3 people), but you can sew 2 edge to edge to make it wider.

Hola que tela es?
What improvements would you make to the design?

How much UV protection does a standard bedsheet provide?
