                                                    Here's one of those rather revealing reports on our  RI 2612 project. 

 

  This is a sample of the work Paul Cronin and the woodshop crew has been producing for our project.   Just  painted sections of  poplar  wood made into window sills.  

   It was another snowy Feb, Wednesday the 26,  but there is always a Wednesday crew to enjoy  a little lunch.       Walking back to the 2612 I found Gary all ready to start fitting the new steel panels onto the wall.  

                                                                                        

                                     

 

           The last photo of March 1, shows the three sheets are fit into place and have  screws already drilled and taped.    The drilling and taping of the rest of screws will complete this part of the job on our next visit March 6th.     I hope  warmer weather is also going to visit us...  and too you the reader wherever you live.    

            Too help this project along Gary and I are asking for a few volunteers to come out and assist us with sandblasting duties.   We are in search of people, male or female, to clean metal  parts that have been removed from the seat frames.   Since they have been removed we should clean and paint them before the reinstallation.    If you are interested please meet us in back of barn 3 on any  Wednesday or Saturday for further "How to" instructions.   If you have another day that you are available please let us know.   We will make the appropriate accommodations.   It's not hard work  but it does take some time.   Bring you lunch and something to drink and we can lunch inside or out, weather permitting.  

                           Remember,  to donate to the  BARNS 13 and14 building fund.    Yes, we might build 2,  Yes 2!!!!!!!!!!      Thanks  for  reading this blog                        Please share if with your friends.                Roger  Kramer
