First of all, it took me a couple of weeks: i am a 65 year old lady, 5' tall, above average tools knowlege/experience. Had to do it myself. No problem, I love a challenge!Okay, so all the parts were there, it arrived in two packages, however, the three-way corners' snap-in holes only aligned at the two top center peaks. The four lower corners do NOT align with the pipe snaps, so here is what you can do: you can wedge or glue the corners in the right position onto the pipes, into the framework, or you can drill NEW holes so that the snaps align. I chose first option because I have alot of other projects going on and my orchids were getting fried with no shelter.I have wrapped wire around entire frame, through the chicken wire.Make sure you pull about two or three inches of the chicken wite under bottom of frames, and first secure it with zip ties along the poles (I purchased heavier brown ties here on amazon), and then wrap wire through it and around each frame pole. That's what I am finishing up now.I still have to cover the door and finish its edges. I left for last on purpose to be able to 'walk through' and bring my stuff inside of it, easier than holding door open.One other thing: make sure you build this on a level surface area. Especially important to me because I will eventually weedscreen the floor and put down patio stone with sand.Maybe I will add a final picture when I get there, but as my Grandma used to say, "Don't hold your breath!"(waiting). LOLFinally, I did not like the waterproof tarp for my greenhouse, so I purchased here on amazon a different shadescreen cover, which is water and air permeable. Perfect!!! Also, it is larger, 6.5' x 16', so that it hangs down over each end as extra shade.Very sturdy once I got done with this. I highly recommend it and will probably get another one in the future for chickens.
