This arbor is a 360º version of the Hambly Project, except that the radial lath is now made of white vinyl PVC tubing instead of wood. For the benefits of vinyl see Arbors. Here the radial pie-wedge canopy segments are prefabricated in the shop as flat pieces and installed quite expeditiously as billowed sections on-site.
