Slow, but steady

Work on the box continues. Early Sunday morning I began the construction of the upper box sides. This section is removable from the base, and allows for better access to the developing area.

It was a bit of a head scratcher, but after my third cup of coffee, and a few doodles on a note pad , I began cutting, and fitting.

Once I had the cedar strips cut, and fitted I reassembled them on a sheet of plastic, and began glueing them together.

I’ll trim, and for them again, and then glue them to the back section below the cover.

The cover will be the next project, along with the hinged “wings” easier to show , than explain.

Born, and raised in New England, and living the last thirty years in midcoast Maine, I took a job as Shipkeeper aboard the Wavertree at South Street Seaport Museum in the Winter of 2016/17. On my off days I find myself exploring the City with a camera at hand. At the moment I am shooting with a Mamiya RB67, but recently acquired an 8x10 Kodak Master View, with the hopes of doing some wet plate portrait work.
