Sides are up.

Well this post took forever, as usual work and life got in the way. Anyways, back on track. Progress has been a little slow as of late due to lack of time and materials but I did manage to finish building and erecting the walls on the house.

I kept in mind that I wanted to keep the house ventilated, so Iam going to put lattice as a 1 foot "window" opening starting from the top supporting beam. That way it should stay ventilated but at the same time keep most of the weather out.

Then after some time in sketchup Ive come up with a final cosmetic design for the 2 sides, still ironing out what I want the front to look like though. Not a 100% sure yet on the color scheme though, I was going to go with some reds on the wall, but with the roof being red it was to much. So more than likely Ill be experimenting with browns.

While I have vacation time coming up at the end of this week, sadly I wont be able to work on this due to me buying my new toy, a metal lathe (Pics of that are on the Facebook page "Here" ). I have it currently sitting in a open air garage and I need to bring into my shed in the back, but I have to gut it and fix it up before that. So thats gonna be my vacation in a nutshell. Till next post.

Booster Frame Done.

Work on the pond has picked up so I haven't had much time to work on the sketchup proton pack, so luckily I was able to work on it a bit today. After alot of back and forth I finally finished the booster frame.

There was alot of back and forth on trying to figure out the placement of the ribs on the sides since the blue prints never specified, so thus again it was left to my interpretation.

I can gratefully say that Iam glad I got another part done, Iam at the home stretch pretty much all thats left is the wand and a couple little cosmetic things. Iam hoping Ill be able to finish it with in the next 2 months. Tune in soon for some pond updates, till next time.
