STEP 8: LEVEL AND SQUARE
1: NOW IS THE TIME TO LEVEL AND SQUARE UP THE FRAME.
2: MAKE SURE THE BOARDS AT THE BOTTOM ARE ALL LEVEL. MAKE SURE ALL THE POSTS
ARE SQUARE TO THE BOARDS AT THE BOTTOM.
3: COMPARE MEASUREMENTS AT THE BOTTOM AND AT THE TOP OF THE POSTS. THE POSTS
NEED TO BE PARALLEL TO ONE ANOTHER. IF THEY ARE NOT PARALLEL THEN LOOSEN THE
HEX BOLTS AND MAKE THEM PARALLEL.
SQUARE
COMPARE DIAGONAL DIMENSIONS. WHEN
THEY ARE THE SAME THE BASE SHOULD BE CLOSE
TO BEING SQUARE. DOUBLE CHECK IT WITH THE
CARPENTER'S SQUARE ON THE CORNERS.
(DIAGONAL MEASUREMENTS SHOWN ARE FOR
REFERENCE ONLY. YOURS MAY VARY.)
