Don't buy a cheap nursery tent or you'll be doing this

I bought a "Zazzy" 4x4, im happy with it. Has 3 bars across the top for hanging stuff. Ive noticed a few pinholes at night, but the zippers are beefy, and the openings seal up nicely. The area I have my tent setup has a sloped roof, from 72" to 70". Since I knew I was gonna hack it up, I went with something cheap. I was impressed when I put the fabric over the frame. There was a lot of stretching and pulling tight, I had less than an inch of room to work overhead.
Once I have a spot where I can get a tall tent, I'm either gonna grab an AC Infinity, or a Covert.

Did any one not notice the improper top support bars lay out? Structurally engineered for a center cross bar to support weight across entire frame.

And my $95 vivosun 4x4 came with enough tape to cover the 5 or 6 pin holes. Over 70#'s hung from stock junk poles. Build it as directed. Or you are having a parts issue in your box. LOL, I do like the improvisation. Needs to be secured to a full perimeter though.

Your comment left me confused. And I'm too tired to attempt an interpretation.

I think the 3 bars are going the same way overhead in your tent. You are supposed to have 2 going 1 way, the other one with the lower offset goes the other way, underneath. That distributes the weight to all 4 cross poles, rather than to 2 poles.
