Poles

[phil w]

I have a army poncho and I want to use it as a sort of awning on my van, so once its fitted to van the edge furthest away has brass eyelets. What I want are poles about 6ft high to put through the eyelets so completeing the awning then I just use guy lines to keep it all rigid.

Any ideas where these are able to be aquired??

Awning poles is what you are after and you should fing them in most camping shops. http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/ have extentable ones for around 7 or 8 pounds.

If you are anywhere near Southampton, your search is over! I have a lot of poles of various sizes. I have a bit of a 'camping scrap yard' going on in the back of my garage. I know I could find just what you are looking for at no cost to you! [Unless you want to 'give' to your favorite charity!]
