Fig 1

• Cut four lengths of 4x4 at 75cm
• Cut four lengths of 4x4 at 45cm
• Cut five lengths of 4x2 at 190cm
• Cut four lengths of 4x2 at 115cm
• Get your hammer out and construct the basic frame :)

Fig 2

• Cut one length of 4x4 at 190cm (The roof ridge)
• Cut four lengths of 4x2 at 60cm
• Cut four lengths of 4x2 at 120cm
• Cut one end of each 4x2 lengths at 45 degrees

Fig 3

• Cut 90 degree notches into all the 4x2 lengths in Fig 2 at 4cm from the 45 degree cut ends. (Make sure you cut them on the correct, shorter side. See Fig 3).//These will be used to attach the roof beams on to the frame in Fig 1
• Lay out one 60cm and one 120cm length at 90 degrees
• Cut a piece of 4x2 to make a cross member as shown in the figure.
• Nail the cross member to the two roof beams
• Repeat this for four pairs of roof beams
• Nail the roof ridge to the roof beams and the frame from Fig 1.
  You may need to borrow some extra hands to do this :)

Fig 4

• Cut and add the 4x2 pieces shown in the figure and fix them to the frame

Fig 5

This is a plan of the front of the coup

• Cut two 67cm lengths of 4x2
• Cut two 47cm lengths of 4x2
• Cut two 55cm lengths of 4x2
• Lay out the two 47cm and 67cm pieces to make a rectangle
• Nail the two 55cm pieces over the 47cm pieces and to the 67cm pieces to make a door
• Cut and add the 4x2 pieces shown in the figure to the front of the coup frame leaving a space that exactly fits the door

Fig 6

These parts are constructed from marine ply

Finally add the lap board to the frame as shown. You now have a coup frame. All that is left is to add the doors to the frames using hinges.
