Run covering ideas for Chainlink Panels.

[Kung Foo Chicken]

Thanks for the suggestions. My dad said he was going to ask a friend of his about building (welding)
a metal tube frame rafter system that fits over the pole notches with the caps removed. He's going to
look tomorrow on the measurements and see if the steel sheets will work or get something else.

He suggested bolt holes through the top of the panel notches on the 4 corners on top to connect. This way
it will be light but, tough using the same harder piping that the kennel panels are made of since they are much stronger
than the newer kennels.

Yay I got help!

I definetly do NOT recommend the kennel cover you can buy at TSC. It went together easy enough, but by no means fit my 10x10 kennel. (that I bought from same place!) I would have had to jerry rig it, and decided $100 bucks was a bit pricey to jerry rig. I can rig something better for free!
So I framed out a "roof" with 2x4's, and for now snugly covered the frame with a heavy duty tarp. Next spring I'll splurg, and add corrugated roofing panels.

If you add a solid roof, be sure to tie the kennel to the ground or the wind can blow it over
