0.15m x 0.15m holes can be dug
to the 32.5cm required depth at
the marked upright locations.

Once the frame is assembled holes can be backfilled with dry mix post-crete. When concreting your
uprights in place leave some space at the top where soil can be placed over the set concrete.

Set the uprights level in the dry mix post-crete by bracing with 45 degree wooden stakes. G-clamps
can be used to secure the braces to the uprights. When satisfied that the uprights are vertical, soak
the post-crete with water as instructed.

Ready made post-crete is available from DIY stores.

Concreting your Cage

In most cases uprights will not require concreting in place. However if you require extra rigidity you
may prefer to secure the uprights with concrete.
