More Shady Requests
Once again, Scarecrow made another request for shade.
Whatjaneed:
Some star pickets/post (4, in this case)
2" Ag Polypipe
Hacksaw to cut pipe
Choccy Bar
Don't forget to click on the piccies for a closer look.
Step 1
Select your site. This was an area that had a willow tree providing shade where Scarecrow did gardeny things.
Unfortunately the wind destroyed it one day. Hence the request.
Step 2
Wack in the pickets.
Step 3
Cut your pipe to length and wack them onto the posts.
The 2" pipe slides right over the top.
In this case the two polypipes are 4 metres long and the gap is approximately 3 metres.
This is a more-than-adequate span for here.
Step 4
Cover with shadecloth. This is 70% shade.
Step 5
Add a table and bench and do your gardeny things.
In the near future I am planning on using the same technique to build a small carport to provide shade to our 3 vehicles
