If you like puzzles then this is the frame for you. One person can put this together (possible at least) I’d suggest taking a picture of the screws as reference for opening the package since I had no luck saving the part codes after prying them out. I’d say a steady 3 hours for a person to safely and efficiently assemble this project. I did have a few bent parts, however if you’re a guy like me, you find a way to bend it back just far enough so the wife doesn’t want to return the whole thing (in my opinion) Finished form is wonderful and very solid.
