What I do every day (NOT TRAINS!)

[Anonymous]

I would enjoy your life very much for a week or so....Hmmm I think it's called a vacation? Haven't had one in a while, coming on three years I believe!

I am impressed with what you have done Matt mate but consider what i do. It is well into Autumn (Fall) here but it is still up 30 deg C every day. So I spend a lot of my time as a retiree; operating my trains, surfing, watching young girls in their Bikini's, drinking beer and eating seafood. I also get on ebay and buy stuff for my trains; and plan overseas trips, when it gets just too hot to do anything outside for long.

Matt, maybe if I hire you also you could do Vic and my house it would work out. We are around 100 miles from each other.

Looks great.I Really like the dual bookcases.

And you have become such a good picture poster. Remember when it was hard?

Have a great day. Thanks for posting the pics.

I'm impressed Matt!!!! Thats some very very nice work. Take a loco out of petty cash!!! Would that be Fypon you used on the exterior mouldings??? Sure looks like it.

Nope. Columns are a structural fiberglass, but just to make sure I put 4 x4 in them.

The rest is Cedar including the dental mold which I made. Look closely at the crown, it's actually the gutter.

By the way Vic, I designed this one, How did I do?

I assume you were referring to this?

if so, its very nicely done.

Sorry, If I did trains everyday there would be one of these in my post.[:D]

Thanks all for the kind comments, that's alot more than I hear from most of our client's. They love what we do but seldom show it.

Well gang,

For me it's model railways, model railways and model railways.

Of course I get to look at a lot of trees here in the Okanagan Valley and surroundings. That's good, reminds me what trees really look like.

Matt, its ,,,ok I guess. Most folks do not realize that gutters got its shape based off of the crown they used to use when they had built-in gutters.
Cool.

Tim, asked me to post some pics of my workover in the coffee shop, I didn't want to post there because it would make it longer and harder for the dial up folks.
Here it can just fade away.
