Fasten the half-moon side wall segments to the
door frame with supplied 2½" screws into pre-
drilled holes at the top and bottom.
The tops of the various wall sections are marked
with A, B, C, or D at the top to ensure that they
are properly matched. (Fasten "A" to "A", "B" to
"B", etc.)
Position the temporary stave-holder stands on
either side of the dome approximately 1¼" away
from the edge of the dome. You can use screws
or spikes to hold them in place.
When the front wall has been assembled and the
stands are secured at the back, it's time to build
up the rest of the barrel.
Beging by inserting staves and tapping them
snug against the previously poisoned ones, using
the finishing nails every second board if
necessary to hold them in place until the bands
are installed.
Here, the stave is fitted over the wall leaving a
deliberate gap. The staves don't have to go on
