wroughtn_harv memory stone

[EddieWalker]

Mr. wroughtn_harv was generous enough to create some memory stones for all of us who attended the Norte Tejas get together.

After about two seconds of thought, I realized that I wanted to mount mine to the side of my "Container Barn." A project I posted about earlier here in the projects forum.

Hopefully everyone who recieved a memory stone will share what they did with theres.

Thanks Harvey for a great addition to my barn and a wonderful reminder of how great all the TBN folks are!

The memory stone is a little on the heavy side.

I looked through my metal scrap pile and came up with these two matching brackets. I don't remember what they are for or how I got them, but they will work just fine.

I drilled four holes into the memory stone. Then I filled the holes and back of the brackets with construction adhesive.

A short piece of copper wire finished it off.

Once the glue dried, I put a lag bolt into my Container Barn, and hung my memory stone.

After hanging the memory stone, I figured it was a good time for a BBQ.

It looks good in its new home!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Harvey, you do good work.

Now all you need is a spotlight to keep it lighted at night. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Only 21 years late to the party.
Mine are both stepping stones onto my barn's walkway. Thank you Harvey and Don!!!

It's interesting to go back and review posts started in 2010 or 2015 and see who is still currently active on TBN.

This 2004 post by Mr. Eddie is one of the oldest I've read, with Mr. Kyle also still active 21 years later!

That's impressive!!!

I'm glad I just ran across this. I'll have to remember to pry mine up so I can bring it with me to our new place. It fondly reminds me of the wealth of information I've learned from this group over the years.

I forgot I created this thread. Thanks for the great memory.

How many TBN members attended the North Texas get together?

How many TBN members attended the North Texas get together?

We had three if I remember correctly. One at Wroughtnharv's in Wylie, where we built a bridge for Don. Another at Jinman's in Sunset and a third for Bird's retirement or birthday in Denton.

I think the one at Harv's , where we got the stones, had maybe 30 folks with spouses and family.
