Multifasited Posted March 23, 2014 Report Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) We have a couple Historic Bridges in the small town I live ,heres few pix of one I built ,this is a northern version ,from snow country ,The difference in Snow country open lattice was used so snow could enter and coat the floor so winter sleds and sleighs could use with out manually shoveling it in so winter travel could happen .It is 72" long and contains over 800 L. ft of oak in various sizes in timbers and planking .

Dennis Key Posted March 23, 2014 Report Posted March 23, 2014 you have an amazing talent .... I used to build HO scale railroads and I built a Trestles bridge in a radius my railroad was shaped like a "L" the bridge went off the table in the corner in a radius and back on the table lol it took many hours covering several days to make it but it didn't look as good as yours ... Great job ... God Bless Quote

Multifasited Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Posted October 1, 2014 The 3 -six foot bridges were something I could sink my teeth into and enjoyed every moment ,thanks for the flowers especially the steel one ,forming each piece kept me real busy . house hold duties have really limited my ability to engage in large projects anymore !
