STEP 2: ATTACHING THE SECOND SIDE PANEL

Stand the first frame, with pyramid cap attached, onto its base. Place a second frame, with cross-members inward, on its left. Leaning the two tops together, let the upper end of the second panel rest against the connector stub. You will see that they can now stand unsupported (see Diagram 2).

Moving around to face the second side frame, line up its top right edge against the side of the first frame, with the pyramid cap resting on the top (Diagram 2).

Holding the two sides firmly in this position,

drive the right-hand screw into the connector

 

stub. Then drive the second screw, taking care to

 

hold the pyramid snugly against the frame top.

 

Holding the two trellis pieces firmly

 

together at the corner and squarely

 

aligned, drive a screw through the

 

uppermost hole along the left side of

 

the first piece into the edge of the

 

second panel. This will provide some

 

stiffness as you complete the

 

assembly.

STEP 3: COMPLETING THE ASSEMBLY

Add the remaining two trellis panels in the same manner. You can secure the sides together at the corners as you progress or wait until all sides have been attached to the cap.

NOTE: This pyramid is sufficiently sturdy for its purpose of supporting growing plants, but it is not intended to support concentrated weight on its cross-members. IT SHOULD NOT BE CLIMBED ON!

While pyramids are inherently stable, we recommend anchoring your trellis in place. The easiest way is to tie it to at least two stakes at the corners.
