That's exactlywhat I'm looking for but in 'raw materials'... I'm not going to pay $200 for a piece of vinyl haha.. I'll be searching to source the 20mil or thicker vinyl and simply attach it to a 4x4 or something all around then somehow have the wood fold... this way it'll slope toward the center and curtain will be easy to attach...

Thanks for the info man, definitely gives me good ideas... if only you could find me a 18-20 foot sheet of vinyl about 9-12 feet wide
your looking at having to buy vinyl in raw material then, and youd probably have to connect them together with heat to form something that wide, 9 feet is probably one of the widest sheets available for the manufacturing process.

and for the sides, why use 2x4??? go buy some rubber weather stripping for heavy duty applications, ive used rubber stripping that consists of a 1 inch wide by half inch tall pieces.... stacking two of them or making it stand up wouldnt be too hard, and then attaching it with a fairly good waterproof plastic/vinyl cement or epoxy, you could save about 70-80 bucks, but is it really worth the hassle? the sides on those thing say they detach, contact them and ask if you can connect two mats together or not, or ask them if they can make you one for a special application.
