My friend had one of those. After it was picked up and tossed across his yard by the wind he used treated 2" X 6"s as a foundation and bolted the hoops to them. Then he drove big ass stakes into the ground through the 2" X 6"s.

I've had mine for about seven years. About every two years, the tarp portion rots out at the poles where they are exposed to the sun. Last year I covered the poles in foam to see if it would keep the tarp from cooking due to the transferd heat. I'll know by next year if it was a good idea. Mine is on a concrete slab with my sons restored 69 charger underneath.

When the fabric goes goes, replace it with the corrugated PVC panel they sell at Home Depot or Lowes.

I got tired of replacing the poly fabric top every two years and the PVC panels have held up great for over ten years now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The best part is that there is room for a cot in there. For when your wife finds your stash of 914 related receipts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

I'll 2nd the secure attatchment advise. We had some very strong winds and I've seen several of those kind of shelters in neighbors yards, wrapped around trees, in the tree tops, etc. My Stepfather lawyer would avise to "mitigate exposure to liability".
