GATES - DAY THREE

INSTALLED THE GATES TODAY. THE SIDE GATE IS NICE AND SIMPLE, PROVIDING ACCESS TO THE RECYCLING AREA, BUT BLOCKING THE VIEW OF THE GARBAGE CANS.


THE WOODEN LATCH FOR THE FRONT GATE:


FOR THE FRONT GATES (AND THE SIDE GATE, TOO), I RE-MILLED ALL THE BOARDS, SO THEY'RE NON-CONVENTIONAL WIDTHS. IT'S A SUBTLE DIFFERENCE, BUT I THINK THE CUMULATIVE EFFECT IS NOTICEABLE.

Is this a project for thy house or a commission? It looks very nice and very Northwest! ;-D (from thy distant cousin...)

It's a commission, but I'd love to do something similar for my own home.
