Ferdinand's Giant Outdoor Cage Step 2: Shopping!

I don't have a workshop or power tools, so everything needed to be something that I could do by hand in my half of the garage.

Tools you will need:

1. Screwdrivers (not shown)
2. Miter box and saw
3. Sanding block (not shown)
4. 1" Machine screws and 1/2" self-tapping screws (not shown)
5. Staple gun and 1/2" staples
6. Tape measure
7. Nippers or heavy duty scissors
8. Frothy libation of your choice (not shown)
9. Bluetooth enabled speaker and phone for mad tunes
10. Dremel tool or electric screw driver

Note: If you are old school, you may substitute FM radio for the Bluetooth speaker/phone combo.

Supplies:

A. Material for cage: I opted to use white PVC outside corner pieces. They have a lip that makes it very easy to attach the mesh.
B. Hinges, fully rotatable is best.
C. Latches for securing the door.
D. Other stuff I bought that I will explain why later.
E. 1/2" plastic hardware cloth (2 rolls).
