Lay the parts on a at surface to help with accuracy. Place 2 posts onto the matching half lap joint as shown above. Ensure all of
the faces are ush and screw into place with 60mm screws. Repeat this process with the other 2 posts.
Place a fascia board onto the 70 x 70mm frame. Ensure the one end is ush with the side of the 70 x 70mm post. This will result
in the opposite end protruding out. Before screwing, ensure the fascia board is overhanging the top of the frame by 45mm. Then
screw into place. Repeat the process for the other set of posts and frame.

Stand all of the posts up with the fascia boards facing outwards. Screw the other 2 fascia boards onto the fascia boards already

Screw the central boards to the fascia boards. Ensure each one is 885mm from the inner face of the fascia board shown above.
As a result, there will be an 80mm space between the central boards. Ensure the top edge is ush to the top edge of the fascia
boards.
