Anyone have a project going?
Checked on the chestnut trees this past weekend. I had planted 10 trees.
4 trees are doing well. 2 others are questionable, something seems to have damaged them, so not sure they will survive. Couldn't find evidence of th e 4 others. Delivered some potted Plumeria and Blood Lily plants to my sis ter while out that way.Need a little activity during this social distancing venture? Check out th e ISS sighting in your area.
Progress on my brother's rocker. Stock is old cypress, 2" and 4" in variou s places, to be carved, so much of the bulk & weight will be reduced. At l east 3 more weeks of off & on work to do.
1) Installed Dutchmans on the seat bottom for surety of strength. Cypress is a soft wood, so I re-enforced the seat. 2) Seat is being contoured.... needs to be carved up to the blue tape-line (pic). Seat jointery of arm posts and backrest styles/legs are the Maloo f joint. Again, soft wood needs to be beefed up a bit, there. 3) Contoured backrest slats and arm rests. 4) Some dry fit pics.Scroll right, 7 pics total.
