Free Measured Drawings for an ultra decorative Grape Trellis

The drawings for the fancy-schmancy grape trellis are complete and ready for download over in the woodworking  section. Create your own green fence today!

The pair I built are roughly 24 feet long (three roughly 8 foot sections each) for damn near 50 feet total trellis flanking the sidewalk leading to my home.
 
The whole idea behind this design was to get a tall green wall in a rapid manor by using a vine. I chose grapes because they are a beautiful plant and I like grapes, but if you like flowers, clematis, wisteria, or some other flowering vine may suit you better. If so, you will likely need to add some lattice to the slats.

Hell, you could even plant and train tomatoes, cucumbers, and other vine veggies if you like. Why people relegate food crops to a hidden spot in the back yard is beyond me. Anyway —enjoy the plans.

Grape Trellis (Arbor) Project – Last Year’s Construction….

Posted on by

Images of last year’s construction as well as images of the small harvest of mostly Mars Seedless,  Suffolk Seedless, Concord Seedless and Catawba Blue grapes.

 I’ve had numerous requests for an update to the Grape Trellis I began  building last year, so I updated the original article with some pictures of the grapes from last summer, and will be adding pictures of the completed trellises (2) tomorrow evening. The beginning of the story is here, and the update starts here.

I’ll be wrapping up the iCabinet manual conversion over the weekend, and will likely be posting a good, long post on Sunday with the times and commentary. A busy weekend coming up –stop back & see the action!
