I know this is a meme /c, but for real, I bought this exact same product a while back. If this is your photo, just be careful about what you put on it. Mine lasted 2 months with a grape vine on it before it collapsed.

You had one job…
When a grape trellis collapses due to the weight of… checks notes grapes.
Mine lasted a year with grape vine before catastrophic structural collapse.
I’m really not sure how much of this thread is a joke. Wouldn’t you just use solid slats of wood?
Lol. The wife wanted something decorative and liked how it looked. Caveat Emptor, and all that I suppose. I knew I was buying from a less-than-quality source
Too many points of failure too. A solid arch or a lattice would’ve worked better.
Oh for sure. I wanted to make sure OP didn’t repeat my mistake
One definitely should use solid structures, metal or wooden. The damned thing cost ~10$ and I didn’t have time to build a proper support structure at the moment. I meant to use it only as a temporary solution, which I forgot when everything was fine.
The design of the arch itself wasn’t the problem. The interconnecting pipes were only 1-2mm thick, so there was no way it could possibly support the weight of a flourishing grape vine.
It was marketed as a “rose arch”. I guess it could’ve handled this purpose without any problems.
Buy wrong stuff, suffer the consequences.
Just wanted to say we have one in our yard that has been there for almost 20-years. Previous owner left it to rot. I moved it close to some wild hops and they are covering it completely after two years. Still standing!
Ha, great tip. I’ll keep an eye on it

Seems pretty straight forward to me.
It doesn’t look straight at all, there is a large bend.
Should be piss easy if you followed the instructions, but people will just start connecting parts because “how hard can it be”. Then they’ll complain about how it’s broken and how the instructions were bad lol.
Exactly, so why are some people complaining Arch is hard?
There’s a pill for that.
I was thinking the same thing and assumed it was a serious post until I looked at the community name.
It’s all there, just RTFM!
Hopefully this simplified manual will end all complaints that Arch is too complicated.
I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Arch is in fact GNU Arch.
Most likely this is Aluminum+Arch
I use arch-0.0.17b-x86-amd64-noarch.rpm from the snap store.
amd64-noarch

There sure is a lot of screwing involved in Arch …
From my memories of the Arch linux labs in college, no there isn’t…
Well, you see, the internet is a series of tubes…

i assemble arch, btw
Just read the Wiki!
Not the Wiki I expected. ;)
Wait, which Wiki did you expect?
Read’s instructions: “Doesn’t seem that bad, what’s the issue?”
Sees: ‘Arch User Manual’
Notices community…
D’Oh!
For people that complain, remember that its still more sturdy and easier than assembling windows.
Four of them
c
parts lookin’ a lil too curved…I bet the counts of 8 and 12 for c and d are swapped by mistake…
They’re not. A is the starting piece on both sides. B is the end piece. C and D are the pieces between a and B.
The order for each side would be acccddddcccb.
E is the 11 bars that hold the two sides together.
The drawing does say that… It’s just that the curvature on those top Cs makes them look very much like Ds to me.
I’m not especially interested in Arch, but I’d like to know where the metal garden is 🤘
Scott Wieland enters the chat
Metal Garden sounds like a 2000s metal news website
Sounds like a 90s grunge band.
Or rather a really shitty ripoff of one.
Metal Garden Arch - strangely works as a distro name as well I think
i think it is the wrong one. it should say mental garden arch linux manual.
If you have extra parts when you’re done that’s a compiler error, check your module dependencies.
If you’re missing parts, check the forums, but this looks like a new system; that wifi chipset might be unsupported.
Metric? Somebody set the region settings wrong!

That’s a weird way to spell “correctly”

Here in 'Merica we use the Imperial system because FREEDOM (obvious sarcasm is obvious)
