Snowbound progress

Most of our staff was off today, snowbound with unplowed roads. That made things a little quieter in the shop which in turn allowed me a little time to work on the train feature for the Sign Invitational Challenge. I decided to start the bracing on the trestle. I cut strips of plastic and then temporarily screwed them into place as I worked out the placement of the bracing. They will be removed, one by one to be coated with epoxy and then sculpted to look like timbers. I managed to sculpt four pieces before quitting time. It sure changed the look of the trestle in a hurry. There's lots more to go but it is good to make a little progress at last.
