Arch Foot Bridge

Once you blend it in wherever you plan on putting it, you’ll never notice the difference. Just my opinion but a jetty wouldn’t have the curve in it. Normally they just angle straight down to the dock.

Yeah I was mainly referring to the boards being all over the place That being said - you evidently haven't seen some of the "little jetty's" I've seen on bush rivers

Have all of the boards in place:

Now to do the Hand Rails and some little bits and detail stuff

Think that looks quite authentic, bit of weathering when it's finished, it's a good 'un.

Thanks Smudge - it isn't suppose to be one of those prissy bridges so I am happy how it has turned out so far

Looks pretty realistic to me, check out this one, it's called "The Mathematical Bridge"

 

[wombat457]

That IS one neat looking bridge

Hmm putting on the hand rails is proving to be a bit of a challenge - not quite as easy as I thought it might be. Am having to do a few of the uprights at a time so this is going to be a slow process. Then I have to hope that the glue holds

Looks like it could have been a Campbell kit, or other craftsman wood kit.

looks very professional!

 

[wombat457]

Thanks Mike but um, I don't think it is that good; HOEVER, I wont argue with you either

Have one side of the Hand Railing done:

Just need to "trim" the ends of the railing

Really looking good Tony.

 

[wombat457]

Thanks mate - I'll most likely do the other side tomorrow and then do the "weathering

 

[Twinboystrains]

Very true Tony. It’s coming along quickly and it’s a lot better than I would do.

 

[wombat457]

Thanks Twinboystrains - you don't know what you can do until you try doing it

 

[wombat457]

I got impatient and finished the majority of the bridge:

 

[migalyto]

Turned out great!!!

What are you going to build next?

 

[wombat457]

Now the big question - what do I do with it ???

 

[wombat457]

Turned out great!!!

What are you going to build next?

Thanks Mike - it was fun to do and kept me out of trouble for a bit

What am I going to build next ... hmm. something I can take a vacation on maybe??

 

[Twinboystrains]

Are you building a boat? The way they rain has been it might come in handy

 

[wombat457]

There's an idea and yeah - it has been non stop with two or three more days to go from the looks. But hey - it's all just water under the bridge
