I have finally started to make progress after 6 months of rearranging the garage buying tools, wood etc. I went with a kit due to time factors. I've started stripping the tail piece and mounting of stations on the strong back. I am trying this without staples. As of last night I have about a 3rd of the second side done. I will post the completed piece when I finish it.This is my first attempt a posting a picture so please bear with me. I have also finished the bow pieces which I'll try to post later.
