OK it’s done 27"h x 4"x 9.25" top 13" base which equates to almost a 5 degree angle…not prototypical but looks good by my eye. :wink:

Dang quick build, are you sure it will stay together :slight_smile: . Nice work Rooster, I’d think black would look better.

Looks great, Rooster. He’s built that for me, I have another big steel bridge that needs support on one end, and rooz and I discussed the design. Thatll work great!

#11

That explains it Bob. I sure was puzzled :wink:

Rooster is this a new business? Are you hanging out a shingle?

Cool pier! Nice welding job! I would have posted that “dot, dot, dot, smiley face, dot, dot, dot” thing, except I really don’t know how to work this whole internet, computer stuff!

Speaking of Steel Bridge Pilings … would you guess that’s what these are?

(Seen about half a mile from the house yesterday. There’s a newly arrived pile of bridge timbers that makes me suspect it might be a railroad bridge, but I’m not sure where they mean to put it.) Matthew (OV)

I could have guessed that. Roos once told me he ruined his car hobby by making it a business. Doubt he wants to do that to his train hobby.
