It has been a long haul.
Thanks ! Does that mean I need to build a different rack ? I mean I have nothing else to do until it snows :nonono2:Quote:

I've been building shit for the last three days straight, I'll try and get some pictures taken. Also, welding inside suck balls.
I am 30km outside Calgary, I would probably be OK :)Quote:

Hey, I've been there!
"Stonewall" Jackson's commission papers to be inducted into the United States Army circa 1846.
For a civil war collector. I designed and put this together.
Japanese rice paper hinges with rice starch mounting as the paper was nearly transparent. Burl wood frame ( ordered with burl on and cut to fit), 100% cotton rag mats for mounting, spacers and top mats. Museum glass.
A really fun piece to work on that came out great. And one of the oldest I have worked on. White gloves on all the time of course. On both hands.

About the glass.

Pretty simple project in some ways, but it was fun.
Curious how expensive it is vs other more common glass choices, and where would one find such glass at retail???Quote:

My counter displays routinely get knocked off the counter by folks who try to reach through them not seeing the reflection. :eek:
Doesn't bother me anymore. It did the first time or two.
BTW eldereldo - looks like you have done a great job on the casa. :yourock:

Couple o thoughts; could use some banking around the base to cut down on drafts, seat looks too cushy for an outhouse, but I am sure the porcupines will like it.Quote:

I just finished building a deck behind my house. It took a little more than a year working on it one to two days a week. It's western red cedar and a pressure treated frame. The decking is secured with EB-Ty hidden fasteners and the fascia and skirting were attached with a combination of liquid nails and finish nails so there are no visible fastners any where on the deck. The railing spindles where sandwiched between two 2x4s using hanger bolts that were then concealed under a 2x6.

Well I conceived and procured material but wife actually put it together. And when I write procured that means picked the rock from drive way, river banks etc.

got it wrapped with tar paper with the lower windows and the door in. spent 10 days on it, got it done up to the rafters completely on my own. no prior real building skills. still have to insulate, install a few more windows, wire, and side it, plus install the stove pipe. but the physical structure of our ski cabin is up!
Nice!... Where did you build this?
