Sounds like you need to call in sick and use that thing!

Nice dude! Looks a touch slow, but that's such an insignificant thing compared to the benefits, I'm just being picky because I'm jealous . Will this setup require you to stand there and hold a button to raise/lower it or can it be setup to push a single button and walk away?

Linear actuators are not the quickest thing in the world..
For the video it was a temporary set up with me holding wires on a battery, but once I have it wired in it will be a DPDT switch and I walk away.

Been awhile since I stopped by here, how's it going, button it all up yet with the actuators?

Yep, actuators work like a charm. Took it hunting this year as well. The Odin Designs tent did great, even under 4-6" of snow load.

HDPE has held up great, not enough expansion or contraction to even notice, I don't think the pieces are big enough to really be affected by it.

LOL Don't know if I would go that far just yet! I will admit that it made for an easy install. While I love welding, and I could easily have done the sides in 14 ga or whatever the weight savings far out weighed everything else.
