"Chess" Trellis

Great Scott how did you do that so fast.

Great Scott. Superb structure.

Very Cool, can’t wait for pictures of it when it’s full of plants. Good job Scott!

Cool I like the lower triangle

Thanks… I’d say It was fast… but my wife (after not seeing me most of Sunday might tend to disagree. On the other hand… It must have gone together quick, because apparently my wife didn’t really know what I was up to, when typically I’ll spend days and days on a project. When I dragged the parts outside tonight, she asked “What’s that for?” Then responded with “Cool!”

I can only say I’m happy how things went together exactly as I’d hoped. But lets hope she knows better than to expect this sort of turn around from me on future projects!

I thought of that Triangle as an easier way of figuring out the drilling angles in the legs!

Very nice Scott, That’s a clever way of joining the rungs. Is it legal for an old timer to say,”Cool”.

Thanks, Scott. Very interesting entry. And what a delightful little girl, your daughter I assume. It’s not fair using such photogenic props. LOL

this is great!!! And you met the deadline. Well done.

(Don, you are right—I think it’s cheating to include the “awwwww” factor by using children in the pictures))
She’s so cute—awwwwwwwwww

Yep, that’s my little one… use what you’ve got, ya know… besides any parent knows how hard it is to keep a child out of a picture ;)

An after thought, it looks like your on the road toward making a Windsor chair.

haha Dick .. you are always ready to challenge someone to take another step forward!
Where would we be without you?? !!

Nice trellis Scott, Where will you put the rest of the chess pieces?

-- Joel Tille

And to think Mike Dunbar’s Windsor Chair School is an hour or so from here…

Joel, the rest of the chess pieces will certainly wind up on all the garden stakes, posts and such… just as soon as I get a real garden going again. I had a 4×8 box the first two years here, (tomatoes, squash…) and several 1/2 whiskey barrels… but the past few years have been about landscaping, building and mending retaining walls and such… next weekend my brother-in-law will be over to help us grade the yard, and I’m thrilled that next year I’ll be able to get a real, permanent garden going…. just in time for my little one to “help”.

Hey cool, get some wood involved with the lawn leveling so you can post pictures next weekend.
