What happens here

Mark the exact locations for the posts of the hanging chair arch on the ground using a string line and a tape measure. The center of each post should be 2.5 feet from the existing wall. Dig post holes to the required depth using a post-hole digger, ensuring they are wide enough for the posts and concrete. Once the posts are placed, use a level to ensure they are plumb before filling the holes with concrete for stability. The posts will then be painted black to match other existing black accents in the outdoor area.

Goal: Install posts and construct the frame for the hanging chair arch.
