How to Build a Frost and Shade Structure with PVC?

When building a small frost/shade structure, using PVC can make your construction process a lot simpler. You can use the ½ inch PVC for a smaller structure or you can build it with the heavier ¾ PVC. I chose to build my larger frost/shade structure out of ¾ PVC in a hexagonal shape.
It is as simple as building with Tinker Toys. No gluing is necessary. By not gluing your pieces together, you can change the height as needed and it is easy to dis-assemble and store when not needed.
Here are the supplies you will need to build your own Frost/Shade structure:
9-10ft long ¾ PVC pipes
16-¾ PVC T’s
16-45° connecters
8 – ¾ couplers
1 PVC cutter
