How to make and install a roll up sun shade. Please see my other video with a little more explanation of the ropes and their function. ruclips.net/video/gZK2W0tUzkM/видео.html
I wish the video covered the rope system more carefully.
@williamenglish9036 there's a link in the description for my second video which goes over the rope system. Blessings...
Thanks!
@@dien87 you're welcome... blessings!
Brilliant!
@@garyleewhite in glad you found value in my video... blessings!
Can you send a detail how to do the ropes sir ty
@@JuanV-l6s please watch my second video. There's a link in the description. It explains how the ropes are connected and how they work. Thanks for looking... blessings!
Thanks for the inspiration. I made a flap opening much more convenient to operate and attractive as well. My friends think I'm very clever to have done it myself, but I do give credit to you and your video. Thanks for the easy to follow instructions.
@sharonwheeler7253 Wow, that's awesome! I'm glad you were able to find value in my video... blessings!
Really appreciate this video!
Thank you you make it easy. Will do the same
@@josecampos1738 you're welcome... blessings!
Nice work. 👍🏻 we’re doing an insulated version of this.
@@jpdunamislodge nice... let me know how it turns out... blessings! 🙏
I had to put a wheel on mine, but I can lock it in place.
I know this ia 4 years ago but I really needed this info. Also that was the exact questions I had when watching the first video. Thanks @DIY Cheap N Easy. I'm going to copy your exact design and give you feedback.
@@Scarrow_23 you're welcome... I'm glad you found value in my videos. Please share how your project turns out... blessings!
My sister and I have been searching for a good video on putting up a shade on my her patio and I'm very glad we finally found yours. Love your idea...it is simple and functional and one that is easy to understand. Will be going out to buy our materials. Looking forward to doing this project. Thank you so very much for sharing your project.😊
@pamelalesane4985 that's awesome! I'm glad you found value in my video. Please make sure you watch both videos for more information and be sure to message me if you have any questions. Also, there's many different material options available online that are reasonably priced. Blessings!
I’m not seeing how the string attaches to the bottom of the shade and how it rolls up.
@@karenp5374 Good morning! Did you get a chance to watch my second video? There's a link in the description. It explains the rope function. It's not connected to the shade material. I hope it gives you some clarity. Blessings!
How did you sew the bottom pocket for the 1" pvc pipe as well as to sew the two sides? My wife is a great seamstress, therefore, I know what a time-consuming job it would be doing it by hand.
I sewed it by hand... not too difficult. I used an upholstery needle and thread. If you have a heavy duty machine, that might work. Thanks for watching... blessings!
your explanations are superb! thank you for such great information without being too wordy!
Thank you, I'm glad you found value in my videos... blessings!
Great video! what type of rope did you use? I watched your follow up video and was able to see the rope very clearly. Thank you for being such a great communicator. :)
Wow, great video and explanation! I have a south facing front porch with a swing, in the fall and winter I can’t swing bcz of the sun shining in. I’m thinking about using a 12’X9’ Harbor Freight canvas drop cloth to make this. My cost should be under $25.
Thank you! That should work fine. I've had several people tell me that they're using different material. Blessings on your project!
I believe this is the same process on all water heaters
Great video thank you I’m going to attempt to build my new heat barrier
Thank you and blessings!
Thank you so much. There are no other videos online you were right.
You're welcome... blessings!
Thank you very much! Just what I was lookin for! God bless you for sharing your talent ❤
You're welcome, I'm glad you found value in my videos... blessings!
Great video, thank you. I was wondering - What exactly is the shade MATERIAL? I'm from Canada, and our Home Depots don't stock the same goods as your Home Depots (the same goes for other common stores like Lowes), so I may need to find the closest equivalent. Thanks in advance.
There's several options for shade material online that might even be cheaper and better quality. Just Google shade material and you can probably find something that fits your needs... thank you and blessings!
This is the best explained step by step on roll up blinds... Thank You
You're welcome, I'm glad you found value in my videos... blessings!
Great DIY information. Thank you. So many "tips" are unnecessary, your s is awesome. thank you very much.
I'm glad you found value... blessings!
I have the same thing, 13 feet across as well..but mine doesn't "roll" it just goes up in bunches. I also only have 2 pulleys on either end. Could the 3rd pulley make the shade roll? Or are you doing something else?
Good morning! At first I only put two ropes and it worked fine. It bowed a little in the middle so that's why I added a third rope. Are you able to send a video or pictures so that I can see what's going on...?
@diycheapneasy6460 no I can't, my top piece of wood broke over the winter, so I have to replace that 1st. I've had the shade up for probably 8 years. When I do I'll add a middle pulley and see if that helps. It MAY be which way the rope is being pulled also, either rolling up in front of or behind the screen.
What a great and simple plan! Yours are the best videos I've seen on this topic. Thank you for sharing, and especially for taking time to make the second video to show the details!
You're welcome... blessings!
Hello, any idea why my roll up is not actually rolling please ? Its just sliding and crumpling my foil..
I guess I would have to see a video of it in operation. What kind of shade material did you use?
Thankful ❤❤
I guess I missed it. How do you run the chord through the fabric to make it roll up?
There's a link in the description for my second video that explains the rope operation. Thanks for looking... blessings!
Good job 😅🎉
Thank you, I'm glad you found value in my video... blessings!
I will try to do the same thing. Thank you!
Where did you buy the shade fabric at
The Home Depot, but you can also purchase some online. It just depends on how thick you want it and what size. Blessings...
Can you post an update
As in a picture? The install went fine. I did have to buy another TPR valve because the one that came with the water heater was too tall, so I had to buy a shorter one. Other than that, it was a smooth install.
@@diycheapneasy6460 how do you know how much to tighten it because I need it to face a certain way. can I keep tightening it to get it to face where i want it to?
THANK YOU!!
You're welcome... blessings!
I've watched loads of these sorts of videos and you've just blown them ALL out of the water by completely de-complicating everything. Thank you!
Wow, thank you! I'm glad you found value in it... blessings!
Not showed clearly how rope is laid
You sound just like Gunther in Kick Buttowski.
Never heard of him so had to look him up... lol! 🤣 I hope the video was helpful... blessings!
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
That’s amazing! Thank you for sharing!
Ohhhhhh I love love love and need this on my pergola. Do you have a step by step list? 😍
I do not... just what I posted on both videos. Everything should be included in them. Thanks for watching... blessings!
@@diycheapneasy6460 im gona give it a go and see how I get on😍 thanks for the inspiration! 😘
Its a few years now ,how is the shade holding out
We sold the house back in Sept of last year but I do visit my old neighbor now and then. I look over the fence just to see how things look lol and it still looks great!
thank you for the video
You're welcome, I hope you found value in it... blessings!
Hi Albert. Firstly, thank you so much for your invaluable videos which are absolutely fantastic. I’m currently in the process of attempting to make one using your instructions, and I have a question. Apologies if it’s already been asked, but I did try first searching your comments but couldn’t find one. It’s constantly very windy where I live so how the blind is attached to our verandah posts is really important. But being able to pull them up and down very regularly is also important too. Your coupler idea is great and looks like it would be easy to use for my elderly mother’s hands when she wants to roll it up. But I don’t understand though why you’ve used the cap on just the left side.
Good morning, and thank you! There's no particular reason that I had used a cap. I eventually replaced the cap with an elbow (90°) because I installed a sun shade on the end of my patio also and used the elbow for both of the shades. Using the PVC couplers are only one way to secure the shades at the bottom. Please use what works best for you and your mother. You can use rope tie downs by drilling a hole thru the PVC pipe and running a rope thru it and tying it around the post or maybe some velcro straps would work? Whatever you choose, I'm sure you will do a great job. Thank you for your comments and many blessings to you!
Many thanks Albert for the advice and some more great ideas. They will all help me enormously.@@diycheapneasy6460
Thank you for sharing, will use this idea God bless:)
You're welcome, I'm glad you found value in my video... blessings!
Very nice, thanks for posting!
You're welcome... blessings!
Do you think this would work for a 5m wide by 2.5m high opening? Also, why didnt you put the furring stips at the top of your beam? That way you wouldnt see the blind when its rolled up (it is hidden completely from the beam whem not in use)
It should, but you might have to run a fourth rope though? I guess I could've mounted it higher... I never really thought about it. Thanks for your feedback... blessings!
I may have missed it, but do you have a reference for running the line up, through eyelets, down under PVC edge, back up and over to the next eyelet to repeat and after the last eyelet all the way back across the top and down to your tiedown (or do you just tie it down at the lat eyelet)?
Watch my second video, the link is in the description. It's explains everything you just asked about. Thanks and God bless!
@diycheapneasy6460 Yes, that helps. Could you have done it with one continuous line, just screwed down on the last one? Maybe there'd be too much friction to easily pull the line unless you used a small double-gang pully. I am thinking about making a roll-up golf hitting net... Cheers!
I don't know if one continuous rope would work...? Great idea on the roll up golf screen!... Cheers!
@diycheapneasy6460 Guess it is worth an experiment...seems the principle is the same and all vertical segments would move at the same speed...plus, there'd be one line to tie off when raised. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you 😊
Thank you! I looked through several ‘how to’ lessons and yours was the best!
That's great... I'm glad you found it helpful! Blessings...!
I'm currently working on making something like this to make our balcony hangout more enjoyable. Thanks for the information and videos :)
Did you sew the coolaroo pieces together or did you buy it 13 foot wide?
The piece I used was 6'x25'...I just cut it to the 13' that I needed and then hemmed the edges. Thanks for watching... blessings!
