Hey James,
sorry about the time delay in getting back to you- picked up another
job so now i'm really strapped for time. just workin on the project
on weekends for now. got all the triangles stacked sky high. we made
a stack about 9 high and used that as our
work table, then made more stacks side by side, which we could walk
on and move more product. what a blast working with triangles is- you'd
never know until you experience how you can flip 'em over on the tip, etc-
and solid as a rock- after dealing with these and feeling how sturdy they
are, conventional stick framing seems like a joke. |
Hey James,
here's a few pics... one you can see how we layed out the triangles
to apply the conklin paint and fabric, at first we tried cutting the fabric one traingle at a
time.... uggh, it cuts much easier after being painted. the hydraulic jack we used to get the last tri of row two in, above
the entry. i had planned on putting in a couple of triangles just for support, but then it didn't
seem necessary, so we just left it open and and had the tri's hanging off of each side, then put
in the last one with the jack lifting it into place.
top corner off pic shows the DDE tri off at the top right corner....
it seems that just this side is short... we put in most of the row 4 DDE's yesterday and they went
pretty good, looking much better than this one.
