Making a North Pole direction sign, the top will say North Pole and the arrows will say like grin he’s lair and a couple other things… I’m just the carpenter lol

Using some 1×8 pine and a 1 3/8″ poplar dowel. Just got everything cut and sanded, for the signs I’m going to notch out part of the pole for them to sit a little flush.

Here’s what we got so far…

Awesome job Nimbo! That saw is definitely a winner!

JimboS1iceMember since Sep 2015Dec 18, 2015 7:41 PM CT

So got a little more done tonight, everything is sanded and prepped for painting, notched out the rod using a powered hand planer. My better half is going to paint it over her winter break (ugh teachers)!

Made these for a couple that wanted a “cheap shed” and work table to pot plants in. And to hide where the pipes to there new water stove run into the house. They were so pleased with the results and in turn makes what I do all the more worth it.

Here is a good pic of the roof and the pipes they run into the house. I think that I would have ran them through the basement wall instead.
