1. detailing, i like the already made side walls available specifically for it
2. camping, great for the food table as it also has available the screen enclosure

will wind up setting up tomorrow or wednesday to see how it works for detailing though as that was the primary reason for buying it. if im not happy with coverage and setup i will be returning it

It should work put fine. But keep us posted. Where in queens are you ?

I saw a 12x12 @ Blowes (Lowes he he) the other day. I did not buy it but might drive back there and get it. The cost was about $130. I might take a pic of the 10x20 I have up. Now, THIS ONE you really can not take it everywhere since it does take two people to put it together. I bought that one @ Pep Boys for $100.00.

I was born and raised in Queens and moved out to Freeport LI after I got out of out of H.S. I need space and the houses in Queens are to close to one another. Tell her don't hold out on you

i too have been looking for an easy pop up tent.. but being in austin texas i am very nervous about the winds here... i had a guy had his tent pegs deep in the dirt.. gust of wind came and blew it right into his car and scratched it.. i cant have that happen on the job.. since im mobile i wont be near grass all the time too.. i know you can get weights for them.. also i have seen people use sand bags.. but im still nervous about it.... plus i want to find something fast and simple..i looked online for a bit .. found these two crazy sites.. haha

the one is very expensive but would be kind of cool working in a big air tent lol.

FAST SHELTER , a quick portable inflatable tent or garage used as an auto body repair work station

Detail Dome - We've got the weather covered

[loudog2]

That first one looks cool. It would be easy and fast to put up. Just inflate and go.

[donavin629]

yeah and if the wind blows and hits the car.. no harm done.. but look at that price haha.. my biz is not there just yet.
