You know, I was about to do that today, but one thing held be back. The power inverter for the lights in the canopy cranks out some pretty good heat, and it's going through a timer, which you can see in the photograph. This just seems like a weak point in the system to me, and having heat contained in a wooden area like that scares be a bit... I'm not sure what quite to do yet... Thanks for the input so far!
