Solano Playlot Bulletin Board 3D rendering 2014
|
Redwood for this community project provided by the Lumber Baron in Albany. Thanks Max. |
Making 100+ Lath from nominal 1X goes faster with precisely measured stop blocks clamped to the fence. That way you only need to pull a tape measure once. |
75 shouldered 1X lath's ready for pilot holes. |
My Delta 10" chop saw was used to gang-cut the Lath to minimize tear-out |
This is the Bulletin Boards rain gutter. Bruce Sturgeon (CROWN Heating*Sheet Metal, INC.) will fold-up the rain gutter. |
Details of Angle Bracket for the roof |
¼" Steel from Oakland pre-cut to 49.5°. These were fun holes to drill. |
Angle Brackets all drilled and MIG welded together to form 99°. Ready to be powder coated. |
All of a sudden Solano Playlot in Richmond Ca |
The four main framing timbers being joined with metal brackets to form the roof over hang |
My neighbor Dennis asked if I was building a boat dry dock once I had the frame together for mock up |
My muscle memory was dialed-in so well I was cutting shoulders off the end if these 1x ribs eyes closed. Safety glasses still on of course |
The final piece arrived exactly as dimensioned and fit perfectly |
