    In Building 101 we learnt that just a couple of well placed angle braces or a correctly placed sheet of plywood keeps the house of cards from falling over.
    I don't see an easy fix for that one other than take it all down and start over or it will never be right.

    Woah, sslow down, Chris hasn't weighed in yet. Gotta give him some time to get his Google engineering degree in construction. He's just finished up his cabinetry and wood finishing one.

    Nice to see the young man working on his BS degree.

    Interesting mouse trap….

    Kinda looks like (perhaps??) some paint on that perforated metal, though -- could create a little resistance. :(
    EDIT: I think I'd recommend going with "six nines" copper for the perforated plate for best results.

    Pool party anyone?

    Wonder if it collapsed in the middle of the night or in broad daylight. Probably caused quite a stir, either way. :|

    EDIT:
    PS Is that outbuilding actually in the pool? Cool...
