Mate I bought some1 inch diameter PVC pipe and poured hot sand from an oven into the PVC and put the end caps on and shaped it in a jig that I made up. Once the sand cools the pipe retains the shape that you set. I cut it in the middle and them used PVC connector to join both half’s together when setting it up in the Big Daddy Deluxe Swag. No no more drooping from the sides. It’s simple , easy , strong and easily comes apart and takes up little space in the 4wd or trailer.
Nice one, sent a few options, this beats the pool noodle for sure. I have a smaller swag so don't get the sag so much but I know people how do. Thanks for sharing. Good luck with the channel too, subscribed ✌🏻
@Gonebushaus I took it back today and got a replacement, all is cool as a cucumber, apparently I bought the only 2 defective ones hahaha just my bloody luck
Thank you for showing us this fantastic hack for us claustrophobic campers.
That’s ok mate yea know the feeling you get all that space inside and have so much taken by the dam doors sag

Will have to give that a try cheers for that sorry on late reply did see it just been crazy busy with our business crazy hours
Thanks champ. You've given me something to think about.
No problem hope it helps
My Mrs got her earring caught doing this at 1 in morning CRICKY though the bloody Yowie got her mate 😳🤣🤣🤣
Oh shit that’s crazy was it from hack or just the sag in the swag
Hope she is all good

Thanks much appreciated
That's all that's needed great idea
It was a great idea made a huge difference
All good just need a stretcher to fit
I see the Klondike stretcher will be the best fit I’m in contact with them now
The pole along the top I went and bought another two poles. I got the canvas people too put eyelets in both ends and no sag at all
Have heard a number of people mention that hack sounds like worth a try also
Good one. Thanks.
Your very welcome
you genius!
Thanks but I can’t take credit for this idea I just made the video for it
Great Hack it would have been good to see how the canvas sits from the outside
Did not even think of that but is a thought for future
I use two bungee cords from the end tent peg to each side of the half hoops on each side , pulls all the sag right out
That’s an idea will have to give that a try
What about the rubber bottoms? Are they all just worn through out of the box ?
Not sure on that one had never noticed any wear on base of mine when I had it.
Sorry can’t help with that one

What is a swag?
Very good question
Is open to interpretation what classes as a swag now days
