Tis the season for a Bump.

And a Wiki.

With the current weather, we need the flip of this



or maybe



or floor free standing


or classic


I was hoping to find some good fans in Costco yesterday, but I guess they are out for the season.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I wish Costco had a closeout site or sale section

they merely lower prices without mentioning its on sale. you can tell based on cents how many times it was marked down.
I think .97 .87
or something like that

This was my fully built sukkah


Totally forgot about this.

The Tarp ended up flying away a few hours before yom tov, was pouring rain, crazy story, bottom line ended up getting a different sukka built within the 18 minutes.

Good news is AMEX refunded that sukka :)

Any suggestions on how to incorporate the entire patio in a sukkah?Right now the plan is to buy fiberglass panels to square it up and joist brackets to support beams between the walls of the house.

thats a classic dofen akumah if I ever saw one. (Left side) it’s obviously no problem just don’t sit under there.

Not gonna try and incorporate the little walkway from the door to the square area too? That would be cool :)

ETA: just noticed the door on the right. Is that the main door you’ll be using or you’re putting a sukkah door on the left leading to the sliding door?
nothings impossible- the word itself says Im possible

Thanks . We were planning to move the table over or just have the women sit on that side. Not gonna incorporate walkway. The sliding door on the left is into the kitchen so we would ideally put a sukkah door there to make it easier

I'm trying to figure out the best way to expand for next year. The current canvas is for privacy and shade, not needed for dofen purposes. Hopefully the pictures show it, but the house indents at the end of the sukkah

It may be the angle, but it looks like the schach on the side perpendicular to the house is not above what looks like it is the real wall. That can in some cases be an issue.

I don't see why you wouldn't just continue what you have further to the left?

Schach fully extended to all walls.
The problem with extending is that I lose the house wall. Still kosher, but unless I put posts all over my back yard there's no easy way to make more pergola.

There was a discussion about adding an air conditioner to a sukkah somewhere else this year, now that my idea worked, I'll
Post pictures of your Sukkah's to help give ideas to other DDF Members
:
I put a piece of 1 x 2 in the front to prevent it from slipping forward:


And a vertical piece of 2 x 4  for support underneath and one on top (horizontal) to lean on










Then, I made a removable mini-panel for cooler years.
