I’m not especially interested in Arch, but I’d like to know where the metal garden is 🤘

I know this is a meme /c, but for real, I bought this exact same product a while back. If this is your photo, just be careful about what you put on it. Mine lasted 2 months with a grape vine on it before it collapsed.

Seems pretty straight forward to me.
It doesn’t look straight at all, there is a large bend.
I was thinking the same thing and assumed it was a serious post until I looked at the community name.
Should be piss easy if you followed the instructions, but people will just start connecting parts because “how hard can it be”. Then they’ll complain about how it’s broken and how the instructions were bad lol.
Have you looked on the Arch wiki for the Metal Garden package?
That sounds pretty niche. You may have to check AUR.
Ahh that sure is a fine looking metal garden arch.
WHY CAN’T MINE LOOK LIKE THAT?!
Metal Garden sounds like a 2000s metal news website
There sure is a lot of screwing involved in Arch …
From my memories of the Arch linux labs in college, no there isn’t…
Makes sense to me.
My only concern is that pipe c is shown as having two different shapes: straight and slightly curved.
Based on the fact that the design requires that a and b be different, there would undoubtedly be the same situation for the four slightly curved c pipes. That is, there would need to be two “c2” pipes and two “c3” pipes in the set rather than just four more of the same c pipe.
That makes me think the diagram at the bottom was made before a decision to cut costs and/or simplify. Four regular c pipes will undoubtedly be cheaper and logistically simpler to manage for both shipping and user construction than having those two extra pipe types.
It was, of course, relabelled to match the supplied parts, but the hints of the original design still remain.
i assemble arch, btw
Idk what the issue is:
- Unpack
- Install
- ?
- It just works
It’s all there, just RTFM!
For people that complain, remember that its still more sturdy and easier than assembling windows.
