Abstract:
1. A method of constructing a structure support on a mounting surface comprising the steps of: providing at least one central member having first and second ends; positioning the first end of said at least one central member in contact with the mounting surface and in a substantially vertical orientation with respect to the mounting surface; providing a plurality of legs each having first and second ends; providing an angular guide structure, said angular guide structure including a plurality of guides, one guide for receiving said central member and each of the remaining guides for receiving a respective one of said plurality of legs; securing said angular guide structure to said at least one central member at a convergence area; securing each of said legs to said angular guide structure for positioning said legs at non-vertical angles with respect to the mounting surface by passing said respective one of said legs through a respective one of said guides and into contact with the mounting surface; and positioning a surface structure on the second end of said plurality of legs at a position above the convergence area; wherein said plurality of legs extend from the mounting surface and converge toward one another through said convergence area and diverge from one another above said convergence area and toward said second ends and the surface structure is secured to the diverged second ends of said plurality of legs.
