May 8, 20242 yr Author Popular Post comment_335294 Hi everyone Got the road to the barn cut and fit today. Whew! That was a tough one but got er done. Made from a piece of tight grained sycamore that I had to resaw to 3/16" and bookmatch to get the height as one piece. Think the farmer needs a tractor. Stay tuned Report
