Assemble the main frame. Make sure there are equal lengths of PVC on
opposite sides to produce a frame that measures finished dimensions.
take a rubber mallet and pound each corner piece joint with medium force to
secure them in place. If you find the joints are loose and turn easily,
reinforce with a small piece of duct tape placed on the end of each piece to
make the connection tighter.
Center the frame on the cut fabric. Use a ruler to measure around the
outside edges making sure the frame is centered on the fabric
Fold each corner and slip the folded corner under the edge of the frame with
out moving the frame out of center |

On the long side of the frame fold the cloth edge over about ½ inch and
then fold a second time (double fold). The fabric should line up in the
center line of the PVC on the bottom side of frame
Attach one screw through the fabric at the mid point of the PVC
making sure that the screw penetrates all layers of fabric.
WARNING: STOP DRILLING AS SOON AS THE SCREWS ARE FLUSH WITH THE FABRIC TO
PREVENT STRIPPING THE PVC!
IMPORTANT: IT IS EXTREAMLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PLACE SCREW HEADS NEXT TO THE
EDGE OF FABRIC. THIS PREVENTS A FABRIC LIP THAT A DOG CAN GRIP AND CHEW WITH
HIS TEETH.
HINT: A MAGNITIZED DRILL BIT HELPS WITH ONE MAN ASSEMBLY.
Add a total of about 7 to 9 screws (depending on the size of the
cot you are making) on this one side to secure fabric to PVC. |

On opposite side of cot stretch fabric by pulling tightly. Add first screw
at midpoint, then add the final screws evenly spaced.
Repeat steps 3 through 5 on the short sides of cot. |

Set the frame on a level surface. If the frame is not square(wobbles) lay
the frame on its’ side and face the bottom. Twist the frame until it is
square
Set the cot frame upright. Follow this method to get corner piece screws
evenly spaced.
(Step 1) Add the first corner screws dead center of each corner top.
(Step 2) Now turn cot on its’ side and place a screw on each side of the
corner pieces.
(Step 3) Now add 1 more screw evenly spaced between the first top screw and
the side screw. You should end up with a total of 5 screws holding the
fabric to each corner piece. See illustration for 3-step process. NOTE: IT
IS EXTREAMLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU NOT LEAVE A FABRIC EDGE THAT A DOG CAN GET A
GRIP ON WITH HIS TEETH. THE CORNERS ARE THE MOST LIKELY PLACE A DOG WILL
BEGIN TO CHEW. PLACE SCREW HEADS NEXT TO THE EDGE OF FABRIC. DO NOT LEAVE A
LIP OF FABRIC ON THE EDGE. |

shown. This prevents the frame rail from turning which will cause the
fabric to bottom out like a hammock and drag the ground |
