As fall came in full force I was encourage to work more. This was due to job deadlines, poor timing on my part and the threat of snow slowing everything down like it does. The thing is though I felt so good through it all. Chemo ended in July, hernia repair surgery in August, slow recovery due to a large hematoma after the surgery but still I was sleeping less, I had more energy and I was very motivated to earn some money. I began with a railing out Pemberton Meadows. It was a heavy one with 1 1/4 solid steel spindles that were hammered on edge, I did have a helper for some of this job but he left for a full time position in Whistler. Each of those spindles weighs 16 pounds so I built the railing in place.
Then I moved down to Whistler where I build a kitchen. Well I didn’t build it but I did cover the walls and make some nice floating shelves. The hard part does not really show in the photos. It was making the window returns.
Part 2 of that house was a fireplace backing, this is a big room. The sheets you see are over 8 feet wide and 50 inches high each.
Then I moved up to Lost Lake area Whistler for a Reno. Another fireplace backing.
Same house different piece.
The last one to do was a number plate box, this will be placed over a wooden structure with some backlights.
Thus concludes the metalworking part of my fall/winter up to around Christmas of 2022.
