And I must add you have to get your fingers really close to the blade with any of this.
This one I am going to hang the octagon up with a string and put the legs on from a ladder.
Worth, just assemble it upside down, turn it over and stand it up, sure safer than climbing a ladder. I always find a way around climbing on a ladder.  |
That's what I was thinking too. Assemble upside down. When I read about hanging in the air , I thought , oh heck, me on a milks crate, in the air with a drill. That would be the making of a disaster for sure.

I got tied up with two different women at two stores today.
One was at the spice section I was helping her buy spices to make spaghetti sauce.
The other was at the seed rack at Home Depot about gardening we must have yapped for an hour she talks as much as I do. 
Well here it is the boards I am using are in the treated weather stripping wood or something. the other none treated stuff I dont know about.
This is a snap to set up and put away.

Now that is what I call a tepee!
If I send you a SASE would you send it to me?
I like it. Looks like you have maybe two pieces of wood at the top ? How did you hoof them together?
It's really nice! Good job!
