I used the longer PVC and rebar 18" length. I did not do the bending but my garden helper did. We first put in the rebar and then hooked the PVC on the rebar nearest the fence. He slowly bent it and attached it to the other piece of rebar. He told me he needed to heat it and I told him no he did not. He thought I was crazy but it is my garden so he did what I asked. It worked beautifully but I think because it was longer, made it easier.

My biggest problem was keeping the cover on it during our late winter, early spring high winds.

I have included a photo.
