The frame is a modular 2" x 2" tube construction - aluminum,. Goes up pretty easy - I bought it from a friend of mine that bought it at an auction.
Our property is the Middle East of rocks. There's no driving stakes in the ground. What I did was dig post holes - a huge pain just from the rocks - LOL! The frame base is predrilled for anchors. I used a "L" shaped concrete anchor about 12 inches long, with a threaded end. To that, I attached a chain to extend the length of the anchor. Put the anchor in place, with the chain and filled the hole with concrete and then tightened the base down to the ground.
The billboard tarp has a pocket the length of it. I used sections of 1/2" black iron pipe the length of the tarp and tied that off to the base to hold it down to the frame. I pulled-in the ends around the parameters like a hem with a series of rope and bungee cords.
We'll see how it holds. I will probably put siding on the frame long term.
