#47

That looks awsome. The color is perfect.

Ken,

That’s a wonderful looking structure. The diamond window seems to suit it perfectly. I used two of those as front windows on the sausage shop I did a few tears back. They’ve held up quite well after some 5 years outdoors.

The color is great too. Did that same brand have a yellow color BTW? I’m looking for a mild yellow that I can either weather or leave out to weather naturally, preferably in a spray can. The stain like appearance of the blue you used is just the effect I want.

#52

I believe they did have a yellow stain Richard. I know they had a green because I was deciding on that color at the time when the blue caught my eye. The brand is Cabot, if you have a local outlet out in that neck of the woods.

#53

Thanks Ken. I’ll check Cabot out the next time I go to the [i]big[/i] city.

Many thanks Ken. I bookmarked the link.

#56

Looking good Ken. A few pieces of trim and it looks like you can call it done ( if Rooster don’t talk you into more trim )

#57

Took it outside for a test fit…
