  1. On the ends. Do both the sheets (end and top cover) overlap and get locked down by the one channel lock piece? and if so, how do you ensure tension on both while you install the wire lock? Love your work and am planning to duplicate!!

  2. A good suggestion for the top beam would be to use U bolts. You can drill two holes in the board and run the U bolt over the top rail hoop. It would be smooth for the plastic as well with out having to drill into the top rail. I love your videos, and am modeling my farm after yours as well. God bless!

  3. Thank you, Mr. Stone for sharing your knowledge. I am from Papua New Guinea (PNG), a tropical country in the Pacific. Do you think this set up is okay for growing crops in hot climates like here in PNG?

  4. I thank you for the DIY vid. With my cost of a new well, tarps, BCS, ect. I can't afford Farmer's Friends Cat Tunnels. A question I have for you is……has anyone done a DIY greens harvester?

  5. I realize this is a couple of years old Curtis, I'm considering building a hoophouse/Caterpillar tunnel and I appreciate your videos. However the area i am in we have some big wind storms and the ends i would have to reinforce the ends so that when the winds blow from that direction the door or end doesn't fail allowing bug gusts of wind doesn't lift the entire hoophouse and drop it in my next door neighbours yard lol
    I do have experience building these hoophouses about 20 years ago for a Landscape nursery- farm.
    Myself and one other person pounded all the posts into the ground using sledgehammers and at the time thought that its was a good workout but as the weeks went on we ended up with Tendonitis in both arms which still bother me today.
    Fortunately i won't be putting up anything near the scale what we did back then.
