More parts made and some decisions made

Made another 4 frame pieces today, and marked out some more ready for cutting.

Also made some decisions, I am going with Stainless bolts (the price was right - FREE !!!), the old saying "its not what you know, its who you know !!".

I have also decided to try epoxy products by EPG, a local manufacturer.  They do Epoxy, Epoxy Glue and timber penetrating products, so I'm planning on getting the smallest pack sizes of each and try them out.

Excitement is building, very close to starting to assemble the frames.

On the subject of Epoxy, there has been a couple of posts on the Glen-L forum regarding sentitivity to epoxy products, so I have decided that from the outset I will use Paper overalls, disposable gloves, safety glasses and a respiriatory whenever I use the stuff.  I have used epoxy from time to time before without any problems, but they have generally been for small jobs, with long intervals between exposure.
