Another fun project accomplished with Erin Munter. Designed, built and installed handrail in Seabeck. Handrail built from 100 percent repurposed material. Rebar from the Elwha bridge, large metal soil spikes, old rebar from the Bremerton wharf and numerous miscellaneous tool parts

Another finished project with Michael Kerkes of Crazy Hill Nursery in Belfair. A 780 pound rock we picked up at a local quarry, some old springs off a large rock compactor, some welding to create the base, and good friend and artist James Kelsey who set the stone with his boom truck

Starting all over again on social media. Facebook deleted my business and my personal account after 17 years with no warning and no reason. I lost all history and contacts. I heard Blue Sky is a good platform. Thought I would give it a shot.
