Tim, wake up, man. What? What? I need you to build something for my second for tomorrow
0:12
Leave me alone, ma'am. Tell, I need your help, man. Tim, I need your help. Oh, man
0:16
Tim, look, look. Yeah. I want to build this trellis. I need it about 40 inches high
0:20
I need slats about 36 inches wide, and so that it folds like this, so the plants will grow up in the middle
0:24
Can you build this for me? Oh, easy. And I got the stuff here in the garage, man
0:28
I can do it. All right. All right. Oh, that Ron Wilson waking me up to do one of his projects
0:34
I don't know why he couldn't do it. Okay, well let's see what we need. We need some steaks and we need some lattice, okay
0:41
That's too thin. Oh, here we go. These tomato steaks will work. Okay, now, well, I'd like to use this lattice and we will, but I'd rather use redwood
0:50
And I'll tell you why. Redwood is a much better wood to use for outside purposes
0:54
But here's how we're going to get started. First thing we need to do is cut down these tomato steaks
0:58
We're going to cut them down so they're about three, feet long and we need four of them and of course they've got points on them that are already
1:03
well made from the factory that'll help them stick in the ground now the lattice strips need to be
1:08
cut down to 36 inch wide we need six of them total to make the stand all you do then is go ahead and
1:15
screw the lattice strips to the top of the tomato steaks now we have to hinge it to make the
1:20
letter x that's simple take a quarter inch drill bit go ahead and use a nut and a bolt to bolt the
1:25
two legs together to hold it so that it stays in the ex position we're going to have to use some
1:29
small cup hooks and some chain. You need four cup hooks and you need about eight feet of chain
1:35
to make this thing work. Hey dude, check this out, man. That's perfect, Tim. Thanks a lot. I'll go out
1:40
to use it right now. All right, dude. By the way, there's a squirrel in your pocket. Oh, okay
