A tuteur can be used to provide a vertical accent to a young landscape, a support for a small vine, or, as in this case, a haunt for the local guardian spirit.  A tuteur can be built with copper pipe, branches or in this case with recycled bits of a deck that I had removed.  I ripped the boards to size on my table saw.  Each board was ripped to produce 1.5 x 1.5" boards of varied lengths.  I used a finish nail gun to attach them to one another.  The tuteur took less than an afternoon to complete.   The completed height of this tuteur is about 7 feet, the base covers 2' x 2'.
