Let's try this again,

Hello all here is my humble solution to the Bimini. Materials include a
8'X10' tarp 5 1/2" PVC poles 10' long 6 90* Ells 12 45* Ells 4 1/4 X 2"
eyehooks and a dozen bungie cords. Place 3 PVC poles in 8' pickup bed and
leave in sun for a week. Loops for tarp can be made on a standard sewing
machine. Assemble according to picts provided and you'll figure it out. The
overhang is good for rainy nights. This Idea could also work with a 10' X
10' kitchen fly to cover the whole cockpit and provide insect cover.
