Here I have the completed trellises with the uprights glued and bolted to them. I’m standing them in the footing cleats and checking that the tops of the trellises are perfectly level with each other. There was nothing meas
Here we are out in the shop, gluing and clamping the of trellis frames using bar and pipe clamps. In the background you can see the other one leaning against a workbench. The thing is, it took me over a year working off and
Here is a drunken photo of four cedar 4x4 uprights, which are standing in cleats set in concrete footings. The skinny horizontal boards are there so that I can find the even levels the top of the posts need to be so that I
