3po3 on Dec 28, 2011You might check you local library for this book or something like it: http://www.amazon.com/Quick-Guide-Step---Step-Construction/dp/1880029871/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1325132840&sr=1-3 I have found these Creative Homeowner series of books quite helpful in the past. This may or may not have the plans you need.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Dec 28, 2011Simply sketch something out you like and a good carpenter can create them for you. Try to use plastic type woods such as Aztex as the material will not decay or rot. Any wood that has flat tops such as you will find in a trellis will hold water and decay from the top down. But with these plastic man made to look like wood products you get the best of both worlds.Helpful Reply
