Greenhouse: Shed Frame Kit Greenhouse, 1 by dreaves

This is a close-up of one of the framing joints. It is designed to use square cuts on the lumber. That is MUCH easier than a shed I built several years ago that had all the angles cut. I would guess that the brackets are not as strong as the shed would be if the boards were cut to have angled ends, but it seems to be strong enough. Every bracket has multiple screws in each board, so they are held pretty well. It is important to be sure the boards are placed correctly in the bracket and everything is tight. If not, the frame won't fit together...

The strips of duct tape are covering all the external joints, anywhere that the greenhouse plastic cover will touch. Hopefully that will reduce the chance of a sharp edge cutting or wearing through the film. Covering all the joints took a couple of hours, and almost an entire roll of duct tape!
