Unloaded the material.

They're supposed to be curved like that.

Mark drills mounting holes into the house.

Here you can see the house supports.

Only two footings were needed. And these were needed only because there wasn't cement already where we wanted it.

Filled with cement with a couple of rebar...

...over which a stepping stone is placed.

The two columns that are on top of the stepping stones.

Connecting the main structure to the house.

More cross-bracing.

Longer pieces of vinyl have internal metal supports added (see the left cell).

The structure is so light that cement footings aren't necessary. A cement slip is glued to the patio and the vinyl columns are "liquid nailed" to them.

The side patio cover structure.

A long shot. The center part isn't done yet.

3-D panels. AKA "flying squares"

We like how the corners tip down.

Shading the airconditioner and pool equipment.

Looking towards the back.

Plenty of shade.

Setting posts for the hammock. They'll be covered with a white vinyl pole, too.
