Follow the blue arrows, you can now see that the
wires have been removed.
John is now holding the 2nd reverse platform (created

The left hand goes BEHIND the tree and the right
hand stays close to the end of the first spiral. |

You can place your hand and arm inside the top of
the tree to act as a brace as the glue cools off as

Repeat until all 4 wires are secure. |

Here you can see the underside of the Hut and where
the wires criss crossed together.
You can also see how to attach the supports, leaning
