This was a fun project I did with my cousin...We built 1:12 scale fence as a tribute to our family, who used to make the real thing...and discontinued making it in the 1920's because labor costs were too high!  I made the fixtures and he did the assembly and finishing.  Those are REAL bolts and rivets!
