Putting up Beaver

Post by LeviM »

You guys that have put up beaver do you perfer using plywood or metal hoops? Just curious if there are any advantages using one or the other. Cost wise they are about the same.

Metal hoops are so much easier. Work great by themselves on small-medium sizes, but you NEED a tension bar for big blankets or you'll get some egg shaped beaver. The bars are cheap, or easy to make yourself.
