Construction has begun

@ktrain
Kevin that's an amazing electrified cage. BTW how big do you grow your raccoons out there in Georgia? I'm not sure I would like to meet the raccoon you trap with it. Might make an incredible science fiction film, something on the order of the Attack of the 50 ft woman. Meanwhile you could always attach that cage to some 2"X 10", or 2"x8" Doug Fir that would keep it on the ground even in the high winds. A white oil-based primer would keep it in good shape for a decade. By the way what happened to your peaked roof G house. You were building as a replacement to your storm damage Greenhouse from last year?

Well I had to move a windmill we had set up to put this there, hence the round grassless spot inside the structure. lol
But, it's got the figs! :)

That looks very good. How long did it take to put it together? Is it heavy/movable?

It wasn't too bad, I did it by myself since my wife was at work...took me probably an hour on the structure and another 1/2 hour to prep the area.
2 people could probably move it while assembled if you are somewhere it could be slid across the ground.
Definitely not picking it up, unless you had a 3rd person, then maybe.

I plan to turn it into a candy store for coons, like a roach motel...they check in but don't check out.
The green house is yet to be finished, it keeps getting put on the back burner.

I've been absent from the discussions for a few weeks. Pardon my ignorance. So is this a structure to keep critters from eating your figs? What will you cover it with. My greenhouse is way too hot with these 95-100 degree temps we have.

It actually came with some chicken wire, it's meant for chickens.
I may reinforce the bottom with hardware cloth.
