Bear here... Theresa and I decided to get a lounger for the catio this year. We got a cheap one that fit our needs and budget. We also found out they didn't send all the parts, so I had to improvise. Not many parts, right? Ivy and I can handle it. By the look on her face she knew something was wrong and that I would figure it out soon enough... ,After a couple hours using small tools on lock nut screws with my big hands and cussing a little, the thing got put together. (For the record I DID read the manual that wasn't very helpful and I DID know one part was missing and I still put it together.) Can you see what's missing? Yep, the center brace. Without that there was no way this thing was going to hold me or Theresa and it could have taken weeks to get the part. Time to breakout some 2 X 4's, some screws, some wire, and the saw. I improvised some basic braces... I used the wire to attach them so they wouldn't move if we moved the lounger. Looks stunning don' ya think? ... And now for the stress test. Yep, feels pretty good, no waiting for napping... This was Frost in catio 1 saying that he so could have helped me do it faster... oh well...
