You must bolt it together to assemble it. I sorted out all the nuts, bolts and washers and put them in labeled piles before I started assembly. It took half an hour or so but was well worth the time. Assembly was easy.and I am not an expert at this stuff.

I used a 3/4' OSB product called "AdvanTech". I've used it for sub flooring in my houses for years. Scraps of this stuff have been left outside on my job sites for months and it still holds up. It's very rigid so you can drill it and bolt down tie rings or wheel brackets if you need them.
