But we still got somethings done. Due to Lance's hard work last week (see previous post), we were able to cut the arcs and build the last corner. While Lance and keef got that going, I started the layer on corner 3. We didnt' get as much accomplished as we wanted, nevertheless, we were still pretty psyched to see the progress. Now I just have to convince the wife to let me out one more time before next weekend!
I gotta tell ya, building this without a "floor system" is proving to be the biggest problem. This is because the templates all float. So we tack and pre-assemble the corner and everything looks great, then we trace out the arcs, then we unassemble, cut the arcs and put it together for the final time. But, of course, when we put it back together, it doens't look quite as good as it did before. Gaps just tend to show up out of nowhere. That's kinda the drawback to the method we're using, but on the plus side, this thing is nothing but a bunch of 1/4 pipes and will be easy (knock on wood) to disassemble when the time comes.
