Once I got it up (yuk yuk) I wedged the dowel between the floor hump and the roof panel. Plenty of bow to the dowel. You'll want to pad the end, I didn't but I'm using "waterproof backer board" from the auto upholstery supply. $22 for enough, no shipping. Black, 1/8" thick. So plenty stiff, almost too hard. I'll whip it out and spray-goo vinyl to it, so I didn't care about scratchs. I did it many times today, since I lacked a pattern and had to push it in and try it for size. I got the top up, and patterns generated for the other parts. 2 hours of messing around.
