Fixed the detached automatic pool cover canvas

Just an update from this post.

I fixed it by going to the hardware store and getting some self-tapping screws with large heads. I just put screws through the canvas into the reel every three inches or so along the entire length of the reel. I'm sure it will fail again at some point, but I'll try to prolong its life by not unreeling it completely every time to prevent as much pressure on the screws themselves.

Sometimes a little damage control is all we can do to try and extend a product's service life. Hope your self-taps do the trick for a while.
