Next bit we are signed up to do is the Living Museum on the Square in Jacksonville, April 28, so I’m trying to get everything ready by then.

Started painting the breakdown display tables. Bits and pieces getting done slowly. Trying to get the all the show ducks in a row.

Finished digging the drainage ditch around the 10×20 just in time for the rain. Got a pile of wire wound up on a stick of bamboo.

The body of the arrowhead is about 1 1/8″ tall and 3/4″ wide. Haven’t decided on what type of cord or thong to put it on yet.

Got one more copper arrowhead made. Used the alcohol torch to anneal the copper prior to hammering the pattern into it. Worked quite well.

And I’m not sure I’ll be up to it today/this week. Will see.

Trying to get up the energy to rearrange this room to consolidate the working surfaces. Tis gonna get to be a REAL mess prior to being done.

Got most of the ditch done at the back & uphill side of the 10×20’s permanent location. Still more to do but should keep the floor dry now.

Many thanks to the unnamed for the donated hardware! Stuff has really made getting the weights and hangers/adjusters fabricated easy.

Which will also work with the 8 legs on the 10×20 Shelter Logic canopy when we need to use it in places that stakes can’t be used.

With cables, clamps, hooks, & turnbuckles they’ll add 105+ lbs to the First-up 10×10 canopy. As we have 2 of the 10×10’s will do 8 weights.

Set lags in a couple of cement block to test them for canopy weights. Dry 4x8x16 solid blocks weight 26 lbs as measured on postal scales.
