| I'd be interested to see how it holds up to the winter storms as I'm looking at a 24x12 PT my self and I've got some of that size polypipe ( Struggling to track the thicker stuff down like piglet used  )

| Thats not a tunnel............................ This is a tunnel. No, seriously it looks good. As Nick says, it will be interesting how the smaller gauge pipe holds up over the winter.

| I have always held to the ethos that if you dont know the answer its never a stupid question, however ....... Now I am again single, blissfully happy and totally in control of where I can put stuff in my garden, and what I can put in, I am intending to build a DIY polytunnel. Looking at around 10m x 6m or so, but reasonably high, probably 5-6m as I have my banana trees. The frame wont be an issue, but where is the best place to get a single sheet of plastic to cover it? All help gratefully received Bobleponge Currently moaning in sunny Sudan

| Disregard my last posting. I was clearly far too lazy to look first and then not need to ask the question. Have now read up from all the experts on here, and am just a little bit wiser

| Hi Just tried your link at the top but it said it was not found so I looked under Projects and Garden Plans but can't seem to find it. Do I need to register to find it on the site?? We have just made a greenhouse out of pallets and wondered about making a PT aswell.

| A Tyke is a person who is born and bred in Yorkshire - they may move away but they will always be a Tyke at heart! "Yorkshire Born and Yorkshire Bred Strong in Arm and Thick in Head" By the way both me and the OH are Tykes!
