spookyeviloneWe put it together. We put it up. It sat right back down, twice. I called Eithni and wailed and got told that it's a more-than-2-person-job.
Like hell! It thwarted me, and like all things that thwarted me, was forced to bend to my will. Proving that he is far too clever for his own good, That Guy fixed the center pole and supports to work like his pavilion. It cost me 4" of height, but that can be fixed by cutting new bottoms for the support poles. He was able to assemble the pavilion all by himself, for lo, he is strong and manly like that.
Cuz what's more fun than wrangling a couple hundred pounds of canvas on the hottest and most humid day of the year thus far? :P
I have a freakishly large pavilion. Even after I reduce it by a third for living space, it's still very large. Yay!
There is no way I will be able to assemble this by myself, but it should now only take at max 1 person to help. Mostly the "need help" part is because I'm too damn short to hang the 7' walls! Hmph!
