Ladder Golf Setup

the 2' bars are horizontal and the 1' bars are vertical. The portion that is on the ground has a 1' bar in front and the 1.5' bar in the back. Glue all of this together except do not attach the T that is on the bottom to the upper portion. This allows the structure to be disassembled for storage or moving.
