8" overhang to tuck tarp under (there's a board an inch under the overhang so that the tarp can really get tucked in between them).

I didn't mean narrow and short. I meant narrow an low. It's 12x40. 7 feet tall maybe? The way you do it looks really good. Way cleaner then the way i inside covered. It looks like you lose less on the sides. Mine was hanging from cables by clips and sagged.
Was your greenhouse a kit? What brand? Did they offer anything towards your depp or did you just come up with it?

Stone meadow: i have a good automated way to cover on the outside. The reason i want to cover on the inside is because this is my winter veg house. It would add another air gap for better insulation on cold nights. I might even wind up swapping out for clear plastic and leaving it up all the time on winter. With double layer poly it will make it triple layer! Just good infrastructure to have for winter growing.

I got the metal frame and plastic from forever Flowering and then built the endwalls myself.
FF sold me the unbraided wire and plastic Filiment.
You could get that wire elsewhere for cheaper but I wanna put in a good word to support their business, I could have gotten the GH cheaper elsewhere but they gave me good advice so it was worth it for me.
They didn't really have specifics for me to follow, but they suggested the wire/filiment spacing and using a second filiment on the side (on either side of the tarp to guide it).
They sent me a couple of useful pics similar to the ones I posted.

Ps mine only spans 25 ft long. For a longer span you might want to do multiple spans or use pvc for the main shoulders w supports.
