Wood work - 4-20 & 5-4-2013

Prior to the work session on 4-20, Craig 
fabricated replacement sill extensions for 
the end platforms using the ones we had
removed as patterns. The first photo shows 
his shop where he has glued the pieces for 
lamination together.
The second photo shows the finished extensions at the work site ready for installation.


Work continued on fitting the brackets for the cross braces.  Dale is doing some trimming on one of the braces.
Craig continues to fill and sand the corner posts as shown in the next photo.  Some are being reused, while others needed replacement.
One of the fascia pieces is being installed in this photo.  Some of the new window framing is also visible.

Thanks to Craig and Glenn for taking these photos in my absence.
