Thanks Shawn.
I'd love to make more of these and share them with those interested but that recquires a
bit of spare time. I could draw out a rough
schematic for anyone interested but it's basically a simple 4x4" design.
For the tray parts I used 3/8"by 1/16" strips. 1/4"dia. Basswood stock, cut at 2"for the 12 columns with a 3/8 sq piece added on top of each one to give form.. Columns are spaced 35mm apart. The roof section is two, 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 slabs- oversized to give overhang then sanded down a
bit. The facade is 1"at its
apex by 4". Most of the
work is in the staining and sanding to get that nice finish.
Added a pre-stain pic.
Thanks, Phil A
