Gary S' 2010 Summer Challenge - Bridge
#50
AHA! There is the answer to one of my original questions about flooding, etc.! The build-up of reeds or tall grass or whatever that dead plant debris is that is piled up on the up-stream side of the bent is the evidence of fast-moving high water that I had wondered about! I'm sure that's a detail to be installed after the trestle is "placed."

Wow, Gary! The indication of rust is extremely well-done! As suggested, you might consider (when you are bored and have nothing to do in a few years) putting together a tutorial on the "Making It Look Rusty" process! It really works well! I'm going back to study that photo for a bit when I finish this post!

But I've really got to say, Gary ...
... your imaginative and innovative fabrication techniques and your madd modeling skills are an inspiration to us, one and all!
