You guys are Too Cool. OK, I've added this post to my favorites. Wednesday I'll be at the job that has a bunch of left over flagstone, I'm going to go through it, get all I need to practice on and give it a shot. Muchas gracias muchachos, Rat.

Ok Rat...

Here's the hungry howling coyote version...

Another option for the overhead projector.....Around the holiday's these projectors come on the market, they are designed for outside use to project an image onto a wall or garage door. I have printed images on clear transparency film just like wroughtn Harv described and used them in the projector. Lazer printer (uses toner) held up better than an inkjet (uses ink) due to the heat from the projector bulb.

Most of my gates have names. The tentative on this one was "rock gate". After twelve elbows I figured it had earned "octopus gate". Then a second look at the close up and it might be "bowtie". I wonder where I got that. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It's heavy tacked up now. I've got about four hours with a welder and the grinder. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif It might be fun but it isn't always easy.

another look.

Now put on your imagination and consider how this gate will look between those two posts and with a rock a bit bigger than the other one.

I doubt very seriously if there's another one similar within a mile or so.
