Some things you should know...
Understanding these concepts / conventions will help guide you through the
instructions.
•
Mating edges of parts to be flush and tight (when called for) will keep
measurements in tolerance as the coop grows in size.
•
Having a flat area is required for the coop to assemble properly.
•
We estimate about 4 hours for a person of ordinary skills to assemble.
Two people are needed for several steps.
•
You will need a drill (preferably cordless) and a tape measure will be
helpful. Everything else is provided.
•
Drive screws only deep enough to hold parts tight and not bury the
heads too deeply as water will sit in the divots and it may cause
softening of the wood and prematurely loosen screws. It will also greatly
decrease your ability to easily disassemble a part if needed.
•
You may end up directly driving in a screw. The brown and green screws
are very aggressive and will drive with no pre-drilled hole. Keep screw
entry points in the meat of the wood and not too close to edges. Screws
in knots or close to edges should be pre-drilled.
•
Rough Cedar may have knots, cracks or frays that are normal. We cull
and cut around most imperfections we deem structurally problematic
during fabrication. If you get a piece that you feel is not beautiful, please
let us know so we can address your concern.
•
We hand fabricated your coop with human carpenters. We work really
hard to not make mistakes. In the rare occasion that we either
misfabricated a part, a part was damaged in shipping, or we forgot to
package a needed part, contact us and we will ship out a replacement
part for you at no cost.
•
We recommend dirt floors in the runs of coops. A trimmed rubber mat or
cardboard can be placed in the bottom of egg boxes and you may wish
to put pine shavings or shredded junk mail in them. They are left wired
so they can be cleaned in the event of a broken egg.
We try to write instructions that work for both visual and verbal learners. Pictures supplement words and words supplement pictures. These written
instructions, as provided with your purchase, will always be the latest iteration of the instructions and match the coop shipped and provide the most
complete up-to-date information.
We depend on feedback about our instructions to implement changes to future versions. Please know that we value your input to that ongoing
process and endeavor to produce instructions that are as effective as possible for a wide variety of customers.
