   I will tell you, busy raising kids and hitting the teen and pre-teen ages really keeps parents busy. So thinking I was going to be able to mess with this model on a more daily bases. HAHA! I think I fooled myself. But finally was able to get back at it again. Hope to keep on going on a more steady bases. We'll see....

 

    I have an assortment of small weights that will assist me with the construction of the frames. But with the 2nd go around on this cross section I decided to search for weights with holes in them. WHY??? It made sense to me, that while I placed a weight to keep the frame from moving as it dried, I could also see the joint drying thru the holes in the weights. Just in case the joint went out of alignment in anyway.
