  • Anyway the sill is on hold as my OH has mandated me to put up trellis without worrying about the time/helping with kids.

    So does anyone have any useful tips or things I should know before I start about trellis?

  • What's it mounted on? If it's between posts then it's useful to have a couple of clamps with heads small enough to go through the gaps in the trellis. Then you can line them up more easily. You nearly always have to shorten one trellis panel, it's easy enough, you just pull the staples out and then staple once you've cut it.

    If you are mounting posts on top of a wall use 10mm threaded rod epoxied into the post and wall with an electrical grommet to separate the base of the post from the top of the wall. Then you can bend the rod to align the posts as you go along.
