To get conduit ... go to your handy hardware/building supply store,
walk up to the nearest studly looking thing and say "Gimme sum 3/4"
conduit, cut to measure" and they'll fix you right up. Conduit is
metal pipe stuff. Then ... for an 8' x 8' booth ... say .... I want
10 pieces of 3/4" conduit cut 4' long for the roof and ... the rest
is however you're configuring the verticals. I did 4+2.

To sew the sides, I sewed 8' x 6' cotton flats with ties on the
corners and every 2 feet and just tied it to the poles.

It never seemed complicated to me ... but perhaps it is, and perhaps
that's why so many people have an EZ up. Also .. I was always
terminally broke. The booth initially cost me $80 and I had the same
one 15 years later. Several times I said to myself .. should I get an
EZ up or should I feed the kids?
