A close up of one of the problems. The stick holding the two boards together in the middle needs to be something more substantial.
Chris came over and we removed the front boards and side boards. Then we took some leftover 4x4 and cut it to size, attached the old boards (turned inside out and rotated so they would be used evenly) to the 4x4s and put the whole thing back together again.
Sadly, this was one of those projects that I didn't take pictures of when finished, but let me say that the whole thing looks much more stable and STILL PUSHES OUT IN THE MIDDLE!
Blast!
The next fix is to get a very long skinny board and attach it to the top. Perhaps there will be pictures when I do that.
Blast! I vicariously feel your pain!!!
ReplyDeleteLook like it was a fun project, though!
