Tam - each piece is separate like a trellis and then you assemble it when done. I screwnailed the frame, which is made of cedar. Then wattled (weaved) the willow which is nailed in place with panelling nails. I peeled the willow in the top triangle so it stood out as a different colour, but now it's weathered. Ummm what else? Oh yeah there needs to be 'legs' to go in the ground. Actually, when assembling I used PVC pipe in the ground and fit the right leg of one panel and the left leg of the other panel snugly in a PVC pipe in the ground. This helped it stand up really well without worrying about concrete. I also wired the tops together. If you do build one I'd be happy to pass on more tips if you DMail me.
Thanks for the nice comments, guys!
