I assume you mean the cross bars at the top? I was thinking about making a couple myself out of 5/8" steel conduit for electrical wire. Just flatten the ends and pound them around a piece of dowel or rake handle to put a curve on the ends to hold them to the other parts of the frame. Just make sure there aren't any sharp corners that may wear a hole in the tent material. File them smooth or a little duct tape should help. Hardware store should carry the conduit. I'm also assuming you have a hack saw, measuring tape, a hammer and decent DIY skills.
Yeah that's what EMT is, great minds think alike lol. I'm just not sure how strong it will be over time. I think I'm gonna hit up home depot and go for it. We used emt to rack up spools of wire when I was an electrician all the time. I think it'll hold. One of the hydro stores here just gave me 2 ft and 4 ft cross bars with the really good connecters for free, shame the connectors are for 1/2" tubing though. It will do nicely in my 4x2 thoughI assume you mean the cross bars at the top? I was thinking about making a couple myself out of 5/8" steel conduit for electrical wire.
