This thing is close to 4’
It’s built with cedar that was cut down to size.
I used tytebondIII glue and a brad nailer.
As you can see the roof is soda cans.
My hans still hurt from the crimper.
So here we go .










Let’s se how she holds up! [}:)]

Oh, that’s a great bridge. I have a soft spot for covered bridges, and this one really captures the spirit of the full-size bridge.
