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
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

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.
