Flat pack assembly

[purpleroad]

Was putting thing together. It is shelves for greenhouse. Has these nuts and bolts which slide in and hold it together. Is there a system for putting these together?

by "system" do you mean another easier way or the best way to assemble ??
at least you need 2 diagonals or sheet material to give rigidity

Purpleroad - forgive me.

You don't seem cut out for this kind of work.
Everything I buy comes with instructions.

I guess just little tricks to speed you up so
Put the legs on with it standing as it should be or upside down? Quick way to get the bolts into slots, I found they didn't fit well so hammered them in etc etc. Also generally with flat packs - general tips on being quick

Piece of cake. There's always ways to get quicker though.

I agree with ELF, you are not a tradesman or even a bad diyer.

Purple,
similar product is here:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/FoxHunter-Greenhouse-Staging-Shelving-Aluminium/dp/B00UM3RI1O

1) Make the 3 shelves
2) To these shelves attach the 4 legs
3) Attach four short 45degree cross braces between the top shelf and the four legs.
3) Attach four long 45degree cross braces between the top shelf and two of the four legs.

Hope this helps,
SFK

Why is everybody being mean?

Why is everybody being mean?

Because of the questions he asks and trying to charge people to decorate the front of their house and to hang doors - when he does not have a Scooby Doo!

It looks like it was really stressful for Gerrard. It affected his sex life, taken from comments on Amazon website:

Let us hope purpleroad is not so affected.
