Default Gazebo

Anyone know where they can be had cheap? I'm after either a 3m x3m, 3m x 4.5m or a 3m x 6m for a venture that I'm looking at.

Just want a cheap one to keep showers off to get me started. Then if it takes off i'll go for a waterproof one.

Cheers,

Matt.

Cheers Frayz, will pop in on the way home from work.

Yup, Just as a side line to start, something for the weekends . Then if it ever takes off I'll be looking at doing it full time. Sitting behind a desk is starting to do my head in.

I've asked webmaster about what to do to become approved trader. still waiting to hear back so can't really post any more details up as yet.

Matt, I was thinking the same thing, working on cars outside can be a nightmare, nothing worse than changing a clutch or anything else when it's pouring down with rain.

Did think about a gazebo, but really want a folding one like the SIDC, so it's up in a matter of seconds

seen those on ebay. quite expensive by the time you add the postage on. they've got no buy it now price so could end up paying £70.00 for the gazebo and then it's another £30 to get it delivered. that's for a 3m x 4.5m. they are fully waterproof though.

eta - they have got buy it now prices. but are a bit more than £70! £130 for the 3m x 4.5m.

that they are. however i think that the £30 from tesco's will do the trick to start with. if this doesn't take off then at least i'll have something that will do in the garden for the summer.

Default IMHO Cheap is not the way to go ...

If i was you i would steer well clear of " Cheap ones "

They still let the rain through

Remember sitting rounds Nates one night ( B day party ) Nate was going on about how good / Cheap his marquee was , Next minute it started raining & we were all still gettinhg wet !!!

They seem to let a fine mist of rain through them , If you are thinking about getting into the bufty / Detailing world then i would go for a fully 100% waterproof one , Will save you less in the long run imo
