It is great to see all of the Vala’s Pumpkin Patch features out of the shop and out in the daylight. They are going to look even better when they are transported and assembled in a few weeks. Stay tuned…
An apple a day
We are currently in the middle of the smallest project we tackled this year. It is a giant apple that will be attached to a barn in Ohio. The apple measures 38” x 42” by about 26” tall. The apple is to look like it has been shot from a cannon and stuck in the barn wall. We fabricated the armature on a steel plate and then mounted it to a piece of plywood, which was attached to a pallet for shipping. When we complete the apple, we’ll build a sturdy box around it to protect it on the journey to Ohio. Stay tuned…
Guest worker
Noa, Matt’s daughter came a few minutes before quitting time and announced she had her working clothes on and was eager to help. We put her to work immediately. She and Matt took care of the bolts fastening the water tank to the fabrication frame. As always there were lots of questions and she quickly got into the swing of things. A good time was had by all.
