    Free metal panels

    A few years back I had my crew disassembly a outside generator building in hopes of using the metal panels to build a solar kiln. But due to health problems that's not going to happen. With a little imagination and creative engineering these panels could be used for a lot of things. The panels...

    My grandson got his first deer this year. My son works with metal, so he cut out a deer silhouette and I'm going to inlay it into curly maple. I'm planning to use epoxy, or would something else work better?
