Awning C-channel suppliers?

If Redding is not too far to come, I've got lots of Awning Rail ... c'mon up and help me liquidate ... ...!

CHEERS!

Sorry Grant, I forgot all about you.

Grant,
I bought my windows and eyebrows from you. 5 hour drive from the Bay Area is a bit much, but feel free to let me know price and shipping...between your days off

[H.A.]

I did a similar job using aluminum tube.
Built a wooden jig what sits over the tablesaw blade. Then feed the tube through.
A protruding pin within the jig follows the saw kerf keeping a straight cut.

If you are in the Bay Area, why not just run down to All-Rite Aluminum in Hollister and buy direct ... they do retail sales from that location.

The cost from me is $3.50 per foot plus S&H ... which in CA (if 8' lengths are needed) can be $30-$40 +/-. All-Rite stocks it in 16' lengths (so do I, but I can't ship that long).

Good luck, and ...

CHEERS!

Shoot. I was just passing through Hollister on my way to/from the Pismo classic camper rally.

Thanks.

I bought mine from a local awning company.

An alternative to an awning... I just found a huge screen tent that will be my solution for shade/rain shelter/bug defense. It's Cabelas' Eagle Camp 17x15 Screen house. I plotted the footprint with my proposed trailer footprint on graph paper and it fits well inside with plenty of room to have a couple chairs, work in the galley and have access to both doors of the cabin. Please understand I plotted the approximate shape of the tent with the approximate shape of the TD. I will have to see how it all works when I get the TD built and tent set up around it, but, the price of $150 was to good to pass. I don't expect it to be the greatest quality coming from Cabelas... we'll see. Picking up the tent this weekend and starting the Tear build next week.

I looked at just using a pop up canopy but was worried about a stiff wind banging it into the side of the TD and denting the skin.
