See how long it takes to find the glaring errors in this pergola kit plan. :)

diagonal measurement! 13'-3/8"??????? But it is not to the outside diminsion of the pergola. Still looks odd though.

The top detail looks weird on the left.

I know it's turned 90 degrees, but...

I always buy Stanley tapes with both Metric and Foot. I prefer Metric. Four meters, 400 CM (4 Meters) is not 13 feet 3/8th inch. Its 13 feet, one and 1/2 inch. The measurement given is from the inner post edge across the diagonal to the other inner post edge. Posts are 5 and 1/2 inch square. The metric and the foot/inch measurements are not equivalent. Length, inner post to inner other post is 3 meters, 30 centimeters, thats 10 feet, 9 inches and 15/16ths. Width, is 2 meters, 10 centimeters, which isn't 7 feet and 1/2 inch. :)

The measurements are, for some reason, off. OK - you explain in the post above.
