    Thanks, Tori
    Um, yeah. They're knock-down, and at the moment knocked down in my basement. Basically 1/4" plywwod, 11" x 8 feet, with a 1x3 glued and screwed along the bottom. Mounted 24" apart onto 6' long squares from milling a 2x4 in half. Uprights held together with small hinges at the top. 1" drywall screws hold it all together. Yeah, a picture or three is worth many more words. These are thrid-generation, but I think I'm happy with them.

    I wanted them for our workshops anyway, so it was a good project. Even sanded and finished them.

    Don't I wish. More interest in him than the photographs.

    Are you going to have a print sale to the large format forum so that you do not have to store all the extra print through the year to next years event?

    Hey Bruce, you look heavier than when I saw you two years ago with Ted and Richard.
    Get those sedentary cameras moving on your back. Maybe you need to build a heavier print stand - CCA treated southern yellow pine makes a real sturdy setup.

    Nope. Shipping is waaay too much work and hassle. I don't want people returning prints cuz they decided they don't like them, etc.

    If you come here, sure. No shipping, no sales tax, Less work, more fun talking to folks.

    Nathan: thank you for your such kind words. Actually lighter than then, and birch plywood and white pine 2x4s are just fine.
