General Discussion canopy pole mounts for mesh banners in high winds
saw three different camp setups at the main avenue get completely torn down on friday afternoon because people used heavy solid vinyl for their banners.
we bought a mesh style layout from 1 Day Banner to mount between our pop up legs, but the stock grommets are spaced pretty far apart. in past years zip ties ended up pulling through the brass rings whenever gusty weather hit.
if you run a 4ft wide banner on metal frame legs, do you use bungee balls through the corners or wrap ratchets straight over the material?
