What happens here
This project showcases a highly efficient and clever method for installing pre-fabricated pillar caps onto stone-wrapped pergola or pavilion posts without requiring any cuts to the cap material. The technique involves temporarily suspending the pillar cap above its final resting position using small wooden supports attached to the main post. This allows the intricate stonework around the post to be completed without obstruction. Once the stone pillar is fully constructed and cured, the temporary supports are easily removed, and the cap is lowered precisely into place, resulting in a clean, professional finish with zero cutting of the cap.
