Meanwhile, Back in the Workshop...



The new addition will have a full basement built into a hill, with the front door at walk in ground level. I have been building these brackets from local cedar to support a roof over the door. More on these parts and pieces later...  
Here is a sign I'm working on with the letters rough cut out with the router, to be finished with carving tools. The curved edge was a challenge because I didn't trust myself to do a clean line freehand. I made a guide for the router by clamping my metal ruler to a board cut to the same curve, then clamping the assembly exactly the right width away to guide the edge of the router.
