+===== 4. Assembly =====
-//Last updated: {{date}} | Structure//
+The cube is built from 8 corner nodes. Each node = the [[mobil:assemblies:structures:connector|connector]] assembly (2x T + 1x X), joined by tubes.
+  - **Build the 8 connector nodes.** For each: take one T-connector upright (slot up), slide a second T-connector over it downward, slide an X-connector to the middle, rotate to lock.
+  - **Make the bottom square.** Join 4 nodes with 4 straight tubes. Pin each joint.
+  - **Add the 4 uprights.** One straight tube into each bottom node, pointing up.
+  - **Close the top square.** 4 nodes + 4 straight tubes on top of the uprights. Pin.
+  - **Brace with diagonals.** 6 diagonal tubes (45) for load and wind stability. Pin.
+//Each step maps to a stage in the viewer above.//
+===== 5. Safety & correct use =====
+==== Build safety ====
+  * Pinch points at every connector - keep fingers clear when seating joints.
+  * Don't hammer pins with the frame unsupported; seat the joint by hand first.
+==== Use & load limits ====
+  * **Max vertical load (stage/roof):** . kg //(to define / test)//
+  * **Do not climb** the frame unless rated and ballasted.
+  * **Wind:** above . km/h, remove banners/roof and ballast or take down. //(define)//
+  * Never leave a tall configuration up unattended in changing weather.
+==== Ballast / anchoring ====
+  * Footprint anchoring with [[mobil:parts:accessories:water_weight|water weights]] at the base corners for any raised or sail-bearing configuration.
+  * [[mobil:parts:accessories:ropes|Ropes]] to fixed points where available.
+  * Minimum ballast: . kg per corner //(define per configuration)//.
+===== 6. Takedown & storage =====
+  - Remove add-ons and ballast first.
+  - Pull top pins, lift off top square.
+  - Pull uprights.
+  - Break bottom square.
+  - Nodes can stay assembled for next time, or break to flat-pack.
+  * **Packs into:** [[mobil:parts:logistics:normal_bike_trailer|normal bike trailer]] (tubes + euroboxes for connectors).
+  * Store dry. Check pins aren't bent before repacking.
