    Ok, so I bought a 12x20ft tunnel.
    Its delivered but not assembled for you.
    does anyone have any tips or info that they can give for setting it all up.. obviously it comes with full instructions but im asking here because there are bound to be people who have done this too and have their own tips based on experience.
    :D

    The main bit of info you really need to remember is that you need to get the tension right along the roof BEFORE you start burrying the sides, with a door at each end that means tensioning the the polythene from the top of each door as much as you can before you do anything else. If your putting it up now pick the warmest day you can.
